assumed that we are nation OF

for breakfast, and that the usual
lunch for the business man consists
Of pie and coffee. To be sure, these

that the girl with peaches-and-

pallor?
There probably IL no truth to this.
The French drink more coffee than
do the English, and they are habit

Americans, being recruited from

IL doesn't follow that II Is the cof-
fee that makes the sallowness. In
fact, in the centuries before coffee
had been brought from the Orient
for the comfort OF Europe, the diff
ference between the French wom-
ans sallowness and the pink and
white clearness of the Englishwom-
ans complexion had often been
noted. Perhaps the climate of the
British Isles has more to do with II
than anything else.
Some persons have the idea of
sallow skin that there Is something
rather oily about 1t, but even this
need not be unhealthy, for need this
type of woman be for ever excluded

hair that stands perpendicularly in
uncared-for strands between in

her complexion was dark and oily

"oh, over to a slippery slide we

Don't you want to Gomez?
Uncle wiggily rather thought he

the hollow stump school, to make
sure the lady mouse would not see
him at his childish sport. the bunny
uncle went on with Billie.
1t was showing just a little. max

woods that much more slippery than
usual. Billie led the way TO a little
hill behind the hollow stump school.
There was as fine a slide as heart
could wish.
"You go first, Uncle wiggily," in
vited Billie politely.
"Fd rather see you try it," said
the old rabbit gentleman.
So Billie took q long breath. then
he took a short run and then he
took a long slide down the slippery
hill path. which had ice underneath.
and snow on top.
Down and down slid Billie, turn
ing half way around as he neared
the bottom, so that he looked back
up at Mr.. Longears.
Come on down, Uncle Wiggily.
Its greatw chartered the squirrel
boy.
After a while Billie said:
"I think I'll make our slide more
exciting like"
How" asked Uncle wiggily.
Watch me-" said Billie.
He slid half way down the slide
and then he got off and began fuss
ing around in a little pile of ice and
snow, while Uncle Wiggily stayed at
the top. Pretty soon Billie came
again. :,
''There, it's all ready" he said
to Uncle wiggily. The slide will
be more exciting now"
They were just going down again
when, all of a sudden, out from be-

the fox. "Tll try one slide, but don't

He took a long breath, a short run
and down the slide he went. Faster
and faster he slid until. all of a sud

A ring which has become very
popular with US for practically every
occasion is the large ring set with

ter stone exceeding that of the
others in size. Such rings are made
up in platinum or an imitation of
1t and generally set with diamonds.
There is certainly no particular oc-
casion for making or receiving a
gift of this kind ard they are worn
everywhere although of course are
in better taste at dinner. or party
or something of the sort.

Jew. Hence that terrible preju-
dice against US.
Permit me to assure you, Sir,
that the idea of a Jewish World
Congress is not the result of a
whim or caprice of an individual
or individuals. 1t is based on a
rational and systematic compre-
hension of the Jewish question.
1t interprets thought and a
need which have always been
FELT, but the fundamental
principles underlying that
thought and need have never
been grasped in their full signifi-
canoe.
Let us see: There are about
fourteen million human beings
calling themselves Jews. It is
known as a historic fact, that
once they lived as a nation on
their own soil with certain ethi-
cal laws and prophetic teachings
for a rule of individual and col
lective conduct. 1t is further
more known as a fact, that the
loss of their own soil and their
dispersion over the globe has not
deprived them of their national
consciousness,-that they are
recognized as Jews by others and
lay claim themselves to that ap-
pellation. They still insist that
they constitute the Jewish peo-
pie whose aim is to abide by the
laws and teachings of their
prophets. It is evident, there
fore, that this people is endowed
with a spiritual object as an aim
of existence, and that being un-
willing to relinquish its corpor-
ate existence among the nations,
it must be looked upon as a Jew
ish corporate body of interna-
tional scope.
Let us now take q look at that
body to understand its outward
semblance.
We see before US, not an inter.
national Jewish body corporate
only an international MULTI
TUDE of Jews.
Now, what is the Jewish
Question?
The Jewish Question seems Il

es itself to us Jews, and solely to
us AS Jews. 1t has nothing what
ever to do with anything OUT
SIDE of the Jews. All that talk
of ethnic, religious, political,
economic, and other similar
causes underlying the Jewish
Question is pompous nothing
ness. The Jewish Question is con-
cerned with only one cause, and
there is only one cause which
keeps it alive. In all the persecu-
tions and sufferings of the Jews,
in all the misfortunes and calam-
tiles which overtake US in con-
sequence of our being Jews, the
Jewish Question is always the
same, and it is this:
Since we, Jews, keep on de-
claring and insisting that there
is a Jewish People and that we
are its members, why do we not
endow our People with the
qualities and attributes which
enter into the makeup of nor
NAL body? Why do we not en-
dow our People with a Head
ship-with a Self e? By letting our
People exist without a Headship
without a Self, we are actually
violating two great prin-
ciples of the mind-the PRlN-
CIPLE OF IDENTITY and the
PRINCIPLE OF CONSISTEN-
CY. It is because of that, that
mankind is unable to identify US,
and subconsciously regards both,
our Peoples and ourselves, as
something monstrous, unnatural
and mysterious. Because we are
violating the PRINCIPLE OF
IDENTITY, mankind does not
understand us and entertains a
subconscious repugnance, fear,
superstition and prejudice
against us. That is the real reas-
on why we and our People are
styled, 'The Jewish Spectre
"The Jewish Phantom" "The
Jewish Ghost" and the Jewish
Mystery" MANKIND CANNOT
IDENTIFY US! It is also for the
same reason that we are hatet
and accused of everything tha'
is base and vile, even Of sucl
peculiar mysterious crimes az
