STORY OF ELIJAH ART
CALENDAR.

For the eighth season the Ma
tional Federation of Temple Sis
terhoods, Cincinnati, Ohio, has
issued an Art Calendar. It is en-
titled "The Story of Elijah" and
consists of a group of four excel
lent paintings, the work of mod
ern artists, illustrating the life
Of Elijah.
The incidents are dramatic, the
delineations bold and inspiring.
The Calendar pad records the
year 5681, extending from Sep
TENDER 13, 1920, to October 8,
1921, and contains complete list
of the Scriptural Selections for
each week. The Holy Days and
Sabbaths are indicated in red.
The pictures in the series are:
elijah on Mt. Carmel by Fred
erick Shields; elijah restores the
Widows Son." by Ford MADDOX
Brown; Elijah in the Wilder
ness" by Lord Leighton P. R. A.;
and "Elijah's Ascent in a Chariot
of Fire." by G. Dore.
The Calendar this year has
proved very popular, most of the
Sisterhoods having ordered them
for their members.

A cry of distress comes from
Cincinnati, Ohio, the seat of the
Hebrew Union College, to the
effect that the college is finding
some difficulty in the housing and
boarding of it's students. Appeals
have been made to the members
of all the sisterhoods of that city
to come to the rescue, to open
their hearts and their homes, but
apparently all in vain. The solu-
ton of the problem of the proper
housing of the students which is
now proposed is the building of
a dormitory, for which, however,
there are no available funds.
Alas, for the good old days when
the Yeshivoh Bochur, the old
fashioned Jewish theological stu
dent, was satisfied to sleep on the
hard bench of the Beth Midrash
with his fist for a pillow, and
when his board was supplied by
giving him days" among the
"Baale Battim" of the town. Of
course, that would not do for the
Hebrew Union College students.

that a new agency specially
equipped to undertake and carry
on the work must be created. So
far the American Red Mogen
David is concerned with Jewish
orphans. This. organization can
do part of the work and it merits
the support of all Jews to whom
the cause of our orphans is dear.
The Red Mogen David is plan
ming to bring these orphans or as
many as they can care for to Pal
estine, there to educate them and
train them until they will grow
up self-supporting citizens of the
community.
But we must not be content
with the support we give to the
Red Mogen David. We must
help create an international agen-
cy representing all organizations
interested in Jewish orphans to
centralize the work, subdivide it
and superintend it. Such an or
ganization must have the welfare
of the entire orphan population at
heart. The Carlsbad Conference
will have served it's purpose even
if it's deliberations will only re-
suit in the formation Of such a
relief agency.

JEWISH ORPHANS AND THE
CARLSBAD CONFERENCE.

The Jewish World Relief Con-
ference now taking place at Carls-
bad brings to our attention a
problem of Jewish Relief that is
momentous, serious and most
pressing, the problem of Jewish
war and pogrom orphans. From
the reports submitted to the con-
ference we learn that there are
about 100000 such orphans in
various parts of Europe. In Kiev
alone there are about 5000 OF
them. Most of these orphans are
victims of the Polish and Ukrain-
ian pogroms. The death rate
among them due to underfeed-

ing and widespread disease is
enormous. The great majority of
them are homeless. Where they
spend one day they do not spend
the next. Their lot is one of con-
tinuous roaming and wandering.
They have not single moment
of rest. Their appearance is un-
desirable. Having lived through
most cruel pogroms they are now
extremely wrought up and nerv-
Gus. Because of their nervous
state they fear every one who ap-
proaches them. They continually
talk of pogroms-of murder and
plumber. When some of these
children were approached to be
placed in orphan homes, they an
swered "No, we won't go there.
There children die"
What shall be done with these
innocent orphans? The number
of orphanages in Europe is en-
tirely inadequate to care for them.
Even if enough homes were to
exist it would not be advisable to
place them there since fear of an
environment where strife and
contention, ruin and disaster con-
tinual1y faces them would have
a tendency to poison their minds
and retard their normal growth.
They must be transferred to an
atmosphere where they can
breathe and live freely, where
they can be loved by all about
them, where their powers can re-
ceive full growth and develop
ment. Such an atmosphere can
be found either in Palestine or in
America, and to these countries
they must speedily be brought.
Who shall undertake this
work? The relief agencies al
ready in existence are swamped
with work providing and caring
for general relief. This work is
of such tremendous Importance

Philosophy Suggested as a Help to a Better Interna-
 tional Understanding
By GRACE A. TOWERS

Old ideals and purposes have undergone sweeping revision. New ways of living, new ways of thinking, reorganization of the structure are now in action. In the general readjustment it has been learned that the old creeds and beliefs, sufficient for their day have proved of little value for present day problems.
 A new philosophy of thinking, more serviceable, more easily ap- piled to our needs, called by some God. by others Right, Religion and Providence, seems to be bringing comfort and aid to a very large number of people and to be of marked benefit in helping them to meet the stern and trying per plexities of today. We have faced many crises during the last few years and it has been dem- onstrated that there was vital need of some sort of thinking that would appeal to the majority and stabilize the tottering faith of a people in a just God.
 The older philosophy was scien- tihcally productive only in limited degree. It spent itself somewhat too largely in unprohtable conten- tions, and it lacked a definite and commonly accepted plan of co-op- eratlve investigation. The vital problem of philosophy is human welfare and progress. The suffer- ings of the world within the past few years have brought the think CTS to understand that philosophy holds great potentiality as a deter mining factor in national and world affairs. The pressure of the world conditions which lately existed and which in a measure still exist, has generated a proof of this statement. We have had a perfect flood of books and articles on the subject of philosophy as it applies to the social and political fields.
 A wrong philosophy can lead a nation to it's ruin within a space of few generations. A worthy one can as promptly. and definitely de- termine a nations progress and happiness.

If we ever achieve a world peace it will be accomplished through an international philosophy of peace. The thinkers of a nation SOW the seeds, the people sooner or later reap the harvest. International peace involves a system of right thinking and right human relation ships. It involves also an adequate plan for social reconstruction. These are the things for which the world must depend upon its think CTS. Fortunately, its thinkers re- alize their duty and are already busy at their task. Philosophical writing in books and periodicals indicate a common tendency to emphasize the forward look in a spirit of genuine concern for social progress. This is the normal re- suit of a social unrest which seeks the realization of a safe and de- pendable international ideal. This new philosophy has entered very largely into the making of a new life in the various nations. It is believed by many that the time has arrived when national ideals can best be realized through cooperation in some form of international union. It is the theme and one of the su- preme concerns of present day thinking. The modern idea is also to apply these scientific ideas as we'll as discuss them.
 A great nation or great race is dependent upon the performance of great actions proceeding from great motives. The fact that philosophy is program of action rather than idea is indicative of our future. In thls busy, exacting, problematic time, the world wants results and it means to cling only to that which can produce them.
 We must remember that realism is never wholly at it's best when unmixed with idealism. The physi- cal and the metaphysical are not only mutually dependent, but they are two different phases of the same thing. This idea is the basis of the new philosophy. In it, both the seen and the unseen world have their place and consideration. Mind and matter are not rivals. Hope and achievement are partners. The things of the spirit and those of sense are jointlvssupreme.
