Reformatory Work Of Rabbi Rauch.
In Rabbi Joseph Rauch, Of Louis
vile, KY, a District Supervisor Of
Synagog and School Extension, the
Jewish boys at the Indiana Reforma-
tory, Jacksonville, Ind, have a friend
who Is interested in their personal
welfare. Rabbi Rauch visits the insti-
tuition twice month when he conducts
q religious service and holds individ-
ual conferences with each Of the boys.
Whenever any Of the youthful inmates
are III, they are provided with proper
medical attention, and in some instan-
ces specialists from Louisville attend
to the more serious cases Of sickness.
Recently e physician summoned from
Louisville by Rabbi Rauch found one
Of the Jewish boys at the Reformatory
afflicted with an eye disease which the
institution was unable to treat salts
factorily because Of inadequate facili-
ties. Rabbi Rauch obtained from Gov
ernor Goodrich of Indiana q temper
airy parole for the boy, and vouched
for his return at such time when
the disease should be cured. The youth
was returned to the institution several
months later, fully recovered.
Acting upon Rabbi Rauch's sugges-
ton, the Jewish Welfare Federation
Of Louisville appointed q teacher to
give religious instruction once a week
to the Jewish children at the local in
dustrial school.

more.
During the week Of May 9th, the
Baltimore, Nd, Hebrew Congregation

budget with which to finance the in
creasing number Of its activities. At
the congregational supper held in con-
nection with the drive, appeals made
by Mr.. Eli Frank and other speakers,
were answered with total subscrip-
ton Of nearly 81. 900 by Temple men,
bers who agreed to pay the amount
that each had pledged In addition to
regular dues. The sum was greatly In
creased by the close Of the week. The
conclusion Of the campaign was mark
ed with Thanksgiving Service In the
Temple on Saturday morning. Among
the needs to which the funds will be
applied, are to provide better facilities
for educating pupils Of the religious
school, to make improvements In the
Temple vestry rooms, and to support

L. S. WANTS OFFICIAL
MESSAGES SENT FREE

Paris, Dec. Correspondent of
the Associated Press i'm turning
over informally the new Lafayette
wireless station to the French govern
ment few days ago, the American
government has proposed that the sta
ton receive and send official messages,
both French and American, gratui-
tcusly for an indefinite time.
These would include, first, messages
from the departments of the Ameri-
can government, particularly war,
navy, state and commerce, to their
and bureaus in France;
second, official messages from the Am
erican government to the French gov
ernment; third. dispatches to the
United States government wireless
stations from it's representatives in
France.
In return the United States prom
ises that the Annapolis station will
perform the same service for the
French government, free of charge
This large amount of business is now
being handled by the private cable and
commercial wireless companies.
This suggested innovation, which
originated with the navy department,
| is being seriously considered by the
French government although it be-
heves it would carry by far the
larger load, and although it had plan
red to leave the station entirely free
during peacetime to handle only COM
Imercial business. The wireless sta
tons Of the French government are
| used by the ministry of posts and tele-
graphs during peacetime and by the
ministry of war during time of war.
The Lafayette station, which is &c
miles from Bordeaux, is now actually
being operated by the French ministry
of posts, and sent to North and South
America most of the press reports OF
the meeting of the league of nations
ASSEMBLY at Geneva.
The station was started during the
war by the American navy depart
n.ent and at the armistice the French
government arranged with the navy t.
finish it, agreeing to pay the entire
cost of construction. 1t can reach any
point on the globe

Charges by representatives of the
association that negroes were unlaw-
fully prevented from voting in the
South led to exciting scenes. South
ern members of the committee took
issue with witnesses and Representa-
tive Bee of Texas, declared he was
tired of states being insulted on the
strength of hearsay evidence. One OF
the spectators insisted on getting into
the discussion and Chairman Siegal
finally told him if he did not sit down
he must leave the room.
Declaring there was nothing in the
laws of Southern states discriminat-
ing against negro voters. representa-
tives from the South suggested to the
spokesmen of the association that
they take their complaints of alleged
determinations against negroes to the
courts rather than to Congress

TEACHERS
MEETING IN OCALA

The first session of the thirteenth
annual meeting of the Florida State
Teachers Association was opened
Tuesday evening with appropriate re-
marks by DR.. L. R. Hampton, who pre-
sided over the session until Mrs. Mary
Mcleod Bethune, president of the as
.sociation, was introduced.
Very gracious welcome addresses
were delivered on behalf of the
schools, the home, the business men,
the churches and the professions of
the city. Sickness in the home of the
mayor of the city of Ocala prevented
him from being present and extending
welcome to the teachers on behalf of
the city. Prof. J. D. Mccall, principal
of Howard Academy, expressed the
regret of the mayor for not being
present
In the absence of J. W. Mickens,
who was to respond to the welcome
addresses, L. c. Jones of Orlando, was
called upon to take his place, and with
very fitting remarks measured up to
the occasion and accepted the keys to
the city in the name of all the teach
ers Of Florida.
Mrs. Bethune was introduced by
Prof Mccall, and delivered a most
splendid and inspiring address which
Icentered itself about two words, Pre-
paredness and Conservation. She
made very clear that the task of Flor
ida teachers looms larger and larger
every year and calls for the teachers
who have the largest and best train
ing, who have also consecrated them
selves to serve the boys and girls Of
the state. This must be so in spite
Of persecution, in spite of handicaps,
in spite of small pay, in spite of lack
ii encouragement.
All addresses were well received
and roundly applauded. Very excel
lent music was furnished by the choir
CT Mt. Zion A NJ. E. church.
Just before the close Of the meet
| ing an expression Of appreciation of
the worthiness of the president Of the
association was made in a beautiful
bouquet of flowers presented by Mrs.
Ieacham of Howard Academy. on be-
Ihalf Of the teachers of Marion county.
The first session closed with singing
| Ey the congregation, which also re-
peated the mizpah benediction.

SCOTLAND is VOTING ON
PROHIBITION QUESTION

London, Dec. 11-(COrrespol~ence
Il the Associated Press) Voting on
the prohibition question in Scotland
has been going on in the more remote
districts for a month or more, and the
final result will probably not be known
until the end of the year
The latest returns are: 1876 Iocali-
ties for no change in the present sys-
tenn; "a for limitation of saloon licen-
ces and % for the abolition of exist
ing licenses.
w. E. "Pussyfoot" Johnson, the Am
.erican "dry" campaigner. stated to an
interviewer at Bradford the other day
that he was very satisfied with the re-
suits so far, which meant the closing
down of 292 saloons in Scotland.
Asked how long he thought it would
take to make Britain dry Mr.. Johnson
said he believed that England, Ireland,
Scotland and Wales would be bone
dry in ten years.
The Cambridge Union, the we'll
known university society, held de-
bate the other day on prohibition and
voted against prohibition 211 to 203.
Toy makers eagerly seized upon the
"pussyfoot" notion for the Christmas
season, and all sorts of toys, dolls and
mechanical devices were adapted to
the idea.
