Legislature Kills Time

The Mississippi legislature for the
first two weeks seemed to want to
kill time and wait for the inau-
gural of the new governor before
transacting much business. Now
come want to adjourn and see what
the fiu is going to do. and others
want to get home before planting
time. The Legislature is made up
mostly OF farmers. either actual or
by proxy, and we expect some real
good work and needed legislation if
they can eyer get together and get
down to business. George County

in discussing the Sheldon-Z Cellar
bill, pending in the Legislature and
proposing consolidstion Of the State
University, the A. & a. College and
the !. /. & C.. in one institution and
locating it at Jackson. says:
The proposed consolidation of
all our State educational institu-
tiOns in Jackson at this time would
prove mistake. There has never
been a time when building was so
expensive as now, and while neces-
sary building should not be stopped
because OF the high cost. yet to
abandon costly buildings at Oxford
and Columbus to erect expensive
new buildings in Jackson would
prove a costly experiment. There
is a wide difference of opinion
among educators az to the wisdom
of consolidation of such schools,
matter which we will not assume to
discuss now, but the fact that there
is a diversity of opinion on this inn
portant result of the concentration
of the States educational institu-
tons should have a positive inhu-
ence in the decision OF the legisla
ture on the important matter, Inl
short. the diversity Of opinion makes
the proposed consolidation and con
centration an admitted experiment.

State for half century. at least |
would the experiment prove as cost |

While the legislature should |
meet the increased cost of present |

THE SECRET OF JEWISH SURVIV.
AL.

Our swan-song has been sung too
long and too often to alarm us. Those
who are inclined to take gloomy view
of our future as people generally re-
gard US as mere negative force in the
worlds work and ascribe our preser-
walton and the preservation Of our
faith exclusively to outward pressure.
According to them, it is not the Jew
himself who has contributed to his
preservation, but the hostile non-Jew.
We have survived, so they think, SOLE
ly because of persuction and exclus-
ion by the nations around us, hence,
our full emancipation and free COM
mingling with our neighbors must in
evitably spell extinction for the Jew
as a Jew.
Fortunately, most of us are blessed
with deeper faith in our future and
a truer appreciation of our past. No
matter what falling off there may be
noticeable in our ranks, we have no
fear for the future. Even though it be
true that persecution has always tend
ed to accentuate our tenacity of pur-
pose, yet our survival and preserva-
ton are due to positive and inner
forces that have always operated as
powerfully and potently in our pros
perity as they have in our adversely.
There is not a period in our history in
which our people enjoyed fuller eman-
cipation and free commingling with
their neigbors as they did during the
Spanish period. Yet it was just that
period which produced men of Jewish
lore and learning, men with courage to
endure martyrdom for the sake Of

their faith and the survival of their

In more modern times, too, we have
had examples and experiences to show
the reserve force and strength of Ju-

and rejuvenating our people. Who, for
instance, could have predicted a quar-

who have strayed and become es-

the occasional falling off and in spite
of the alarm that is frequently sound

strength and it is but reasonable to
assume that, as time goes on and the
