not able to observe his Sabbath
there is no reason why he should
not come to prayers, to the con-

the sermon are more important

EDITORIALS FROM OUR
READERS.
Special to the Monitor

the prominent cities of Texas,
and which claims to be impartial
in its platform, was suddenly
compelled, on account of some
happening in that city, to break
its neutral policy. The Ortho-
dox people of that city introduce
ed something new, which, accord
ing to the editor, imperils the ex-
istence of Orthodox Judaism.
This is what happened: An
organization Of Orthodox young
people, which has been organ.
lied for the purpose of studying
Jewish life and its problems,
made it one of their principles to
establish Friday evening serv-
ices, and for the last Four Fri
Gays tney succeeded in having q
crowd of several hundred people
to attend these services and SER
mons. They have also succeed
ed in persuading a large number
of storekeepers to close their
stores in time to attend these
services.
The editor, who is also the Re-
formed Rabbi of the same city,
seems to be very aggravated on
account Of this. In his above
mentioned editorial his first
question is, From whom did the
Orthodox Jews get the privilege
OF holding services after eating
supper?" It is q well known
fact that the prerogative for
eatlng before prayers has only
been granted by the Central
Conference of American Rabbis
to the Reformed Jews exclusive
ly. And how could the Orthodox
Jews dare to infringe upon those
rights? He therefore states that
the Orthodox Jews cannot do 1t
according to the Shuchan Aruch
and the Luah, and that prayers
can be held only after three stars
are visible. what should be
done on a cloudy day?)
The editor again wonders
what would the Orthodox Jews
do on Friday Shuchan Purim.
We would ask the worthy editor
to inform us what relation pray
ers, sunset and Shushan Purim
have one to another. He prob
ablvyants to show us that he
has made a thorough study of
the Luah.
While the Reformed Rabbi
goes into ecstacy concerning the
Orthodox Judaism, he tries to
describe the beautiful picture of
an Orthodox Friday evening in
an old Jewish home. He writes:
"On Erev Shabbos, Sabbath eve
ming, prayers crew held in the
synagogue as usual, then the
head of the house and those
whom he took home with him,
there was generally a guest
came home, and after the light

work on the Sabbath, were still
Orthodox Jews. They worked
and prayed. They did not dis
card the Sabbath. The Moranos
were Catholics to the world and
Orthodox Jews at home and at
heart. They did not say because
they cannot observe everything
they should not observe any
thing. The Orthodox Jew ad-
heres to the religion of his ances-
tors. He repeats and remem-
bers everything, everything as
long as he does not discard it,
as long as he recognizes every
part of his ancestral religion as
a part of his religion, which he
ought to observe as a Jew, al
though he does not observe it,
he is considered an Orthodox
Jew as good as were our ances-
tors in Spain and elsewhere. Re-
formed Jews have adopted a diff
ferent policy. They have dis
carded every law and custom
that came in their way. When
they came to this country and
found that the Jewish laws of
divorce and marriage lnterefered
with their life they discarded it
rather than endeavoring to OBJ
serve as much of it as they can.
When they found that the diet
airy laws were in conflict with
their mode of living, instead of
trying to observe as much as
they could they again discarded
it. The Reformed Jew is a per-
feet Jew for if there is anything
in his religion, any law in his re-
ligion that he cannot abide by it,
he discards it, it becomes no
more a part of his religion, and
he is a perfect Jew. The Ortho-
dox Jew does not discard any
thing, he observes as much as he
can, the rest he studies and re-
members and as circumstances
change so hopes for a day when
he will be able to observe many
things that he does not observe
now. Should circumstances
change in this country and the
Jew will again be able to observe
his Sabbath, the Orthodox Jew
will surely return to his Sabbath
and observe it for he has never
discarded it. The Reformed Jew
discards it and however the cir
cumstances might change, he
will never return to what he
considers no more a part of his
religion. This is the reason why
the Orthodox Jew observes die
tary laws, prays, sends his chill
dren to Hebrew School, performs
many other Jewish customs, al
though he does at times violate
the Sabbath. and many other
fundamental principles Of Ju-
daism. As long as he has not dis
carded them, as long as he has
not Turned his fare awav from

~~>A~S "AASSSAA W q AsCAOA uA-
ed Rabbi we have almost sus.
pected that he was sometimes
present at an Orthodox meal.
But reading that the lighting of
the candles comes after prayers
and before the meal, we are as
sured that he never saw an Or
thodox Jewish home in his life.
And for his own enlightenment
we wish to inform him that in
the same Luah in which Shu-
shan Purim was mentioned,
there is also mentioned that the
lighting of the candles took
place Friday evening before sun
set and before prayers.
Next the editor asks what
right do the Orthodox Jews have
to close their stores Friday night
and reopen them Saturday morn
ing, as according to the Shulchan
Aruch, this is strictly prohibited.
The editor although he is a Re-
formed rabbi, wants to show US
that he is an expert in Orthodox
Jewry too, and takes the liberty
of answering these questions. He
comes to the conclusion that in
accordance with the Shulcan
Aruch and in accordance with
the Luah (both great authorities
Of Orthodox Judaism) the Or
thodox Jews are not allowed to
do it. We cannot understand
why the editor has gone to look
for information, whether a Jew
is allowed to work on Sabbath or
not, to the Shulchan Aruch. I
am sure that the editor has at
least an English translation of
the Bible if not the original in
Hebrew.
There is one question which
the Reformed Rabbi asks and
which at first sight appears to
be logical and that is, what right
do the Orthodox Jews have to
work on Shabbos? In reply to
this, we wish to ask what right
the Reformed Jews have to work
on Shabbos? Does the worthy
rabbi think that If a Jew has al
ready agreed to pay a few dol
lars a month to the Temple that
the receipt for his few dollars
grants him the privilege of work.
ing on Shabbos and eating ham
sandwiches? But we will answer
the Reformed Rabbi although
we are sure he will not be able
to answer our question. He asks
for consistency among Orthodox
Jews. IF we are Orthodox" he
exclaims, "let us observe every
thing that our religion demands
from u.s." And in reply to this
we wish to say that many of the
Reformed Rabbis do not UNDER
stand Orthodox Judaism. II
they would, they would never
have asked such questions.

F. Iven Benjamin, prom oter of the big wrestling tourney in this city on Monday evening. April F, is going ahead perfecting the plans for the proposed tourney which promises to be one of the best ever held in Con- necticut. For the main event Mt. Benjamin has secured 'Dutch Kent of Hartford and Al Eentres of Berlin. This pair of grapplers have met seN- eraI times on the mat, and each has defeated the other decisively. In the last meeting of the pair in this city Kent was the loser after one of the most SruelIing matches ever staged here The Hartford boy has never been satisfied with the result and is working hard to perfect himself for the coming match. which he is con- tident of winning.
 Promote Ben jamin will be seen on the mat again, when he tackles Young Hercules of Berlin in d handicap match for a side bet. The Plainville boy has recently returned from tour through New York state where he met and defeated a number of good boys. He reports being in the best possible condition for the coming bout. Owing to the excellency of the bouts, the promoter has placed the admission prices at s1.1o and $2.2o.
 He reports that to date d large num- Der Of requests for reservations have been received by him, indicating that there will be a good sized crowd in at tendance. Kent, who performed with the Tigers A. C. football team of Hart ford last fall, will no doubt be accom- panied by a delegation of the club members to root for him in his bout.
