is THE JEW DISTINCTIVE.

The following interesting article
has been contributed to our columns
by the distinguished journalists, Mr..
Walter Hurt:
"The man on the street, and some
times even the learned college profess
sor and the all-knowing journalist will
without any hesitation make some
sweeping remark about the Jew, say
ing that the Jew is this, that, or the
other thing simply because he is
Jew. The Jewish mind necessarily
works that way, because it is Jewish,
and therefore different; which means
worse than, or inferior to, other
minds. Even the sage newspaper
scribe or erudite professor seldom
stops to ask whether there really is
any reason for so bracketing group
Of humans and making such sweeping
generalization regarding it; whet' r
It is not case Of merely giving a bad
name or character to those whom VIZ
dislike, the dislike being due to other
causes entirely . Only fools or
knaves say the Jews is this, or that,
or something else."-Dr. s. w. DEM
ard, in 1.-THE American Jewish World"
Although the foregoing charge Of
verbal vitriol obviously is aimed only
at non-Jewish writer's whose opinions
disagree with Doctor Demands, 1t
nevertheless finds target in many Of
his ablest editorial and rabbinical COL
leagues. In fact, his views on racial
psychology and characteristics are at
variance with those Of the majority
Of Jewish thinkers, who therefore
must be included with those whom he
indicts as "fools or knaves."
For example, so eminent Hebraist
as Israel Zangwill accounts for alien
antipathy to the Jew on the grounds
Of dislike for the unlike" This ex-
PLANTATION should be acceptable to the
Jew, for certainly 1t is less offensive
10 his self-esteem than is its alterna-
tive Of fundamental faults.
In an editorial in recent issue OF
"The Scribe" DR.. Jonah B. Wise
speaks Of the Jew as ian outstanding
ly strange phenomeon in the body po-
little that to the non-Jewish masses
never was understandable" At an
other point in this editorial, Doctor
Wise says, "The Jew was and per-
haps still Is and still is mystery,
both spiritually and physically"
Such testimonial instances might
be multiplied indefinitely, but these
are sufficient 10 show that represen-
tative Jewish publicists admit the
mental and temperamental differen-
ees between Jew and Gentle.

thinker and writer I have the utmost
respect, yet am constrained to say
that he places himself at a decided
disadvantage by his attitude of intol-
erance when he mounts his familiar
hobby Of denial of race differentiation.
There is no justification for the as
sertion that the postulate of different
mental modes Of Jew and Aryan nee
cessarily implies inferiority of the
former. AS well might the rule be re-
versible and these mental differences
be used as an argument for the intel
lectual inferiority Of the Aryan. Why
should the Jew forever insist on maxi
ing himself target for enmity where
none exists and an object of dispar-
agement when none is intended? SUCH
an attitude surely does not make for
inter-racial concord
1t really would seem that some
Jews are determined to be disliked;
even by those vino are not inclined to
dislike them. And they go about it the
right way to achieve their purpose.
For my part, I can conceive Of no
reasonable objection to being regard
ed as different from the Aryan race
mentally, and in many other respects;
rather, the Jew should deem such an
estimate compliment.
The Jew should be, if not proud, AZ
least well satisfied, that he is distinc-
tive. In truth, he boasts of his racial
sinsularity, yet is resentful when
others admit it; by this inconsistency
turning honor into reproach. Ver-
lily, most difficult person to please.
Few will be found to deny differen-
ces in characteristics between all Diff
ferent peoples. These differences are
greater in degree according as the
ference in environment is more mark
ed, necessarily resulting in a CORES.
ponding measure of difference in Gus
toms, habits, and other expressions of
material exigency in the manner Of
living. These inevitably determine the
mode Of thought, for mems minds are
nodded by their experiences, just as
all mental impressions are the reflec-
ton Of external effects upon the SEN
ses.
Qualified psychologists, Jewish and
non-Jewish, agree, regarding these ra-
cial differences in the cerebral pro-
cesses, resulting from variation Of en-.
vironment. The more abrupt the de-
parture in physical type, the more
acute the mental divergence. Thus, the
difference between racial branches is
not nearly so marked as that between
basic races. The dissimiltude Of Jew
and Aryan is no moreover less, per-
haps-than that Of the Occidental
type and nay other Oriental of the
same parent stock.
In case Of the Japanese, of course,
they being Of a different basic race,
the mental differences are more radi-
cal; being so great, in fact, as to be
irreconsilable. Yet no inferiority to
occidentals is for this reason imputed
to the Japanese; indeed, their intellec-
ual and cultural superiority in many
respects is almost universally conced-
ed. The whole question is one, not Of
inequality, but Of unlikeness.
However foolish or knavish II may
be, | wish here to repeat an assertion
made by me in a recent article: at is
an incontrovertible fact that Jew and

A proviso will also be included per
hitting replacement Of capital ships
when they were twenty years old and
prohibiting construction of any ship
built in replacement with tonnage
OF more than $4,000 tons.
The text of the proposal as its de-
tails concern the three leading naval
powers is as follows:
United States:
1.-THE United States is now complet-
ing its program OF 1916 calling for ten
new battleships and six battle cruis-
ers. One battleship has been complet-
ed. The others are in various stages
of construction; in some cases from
so 10 80 per cent OF the construction
has been done. OF these fifteen CAPT
tai ships now being built over $780,
5000 have been spent. Still the
United States is willing in the inter-
est Of immediate limitation of naval
armaments to scrap all these vessels.
"The United States proposes, If this
plan Is accepted
ID To scrap all capital ships now
under construction. This includes six
battle cruisers and seven battleships
on the ways and in the course of build
ing and two battleships launched
1.-THE total number OF new capital
ships thus to be scrapped is fifteen.

Showers VS.. BathtubS.

Some Of the new small houses are
being built with a fully equipped
shower bath instead of bathtub in
the bathroom. At first the idea Of
may seem rather shocking, but there
are those who contend that the
shower bath offers a really more ef-
fective means for keeping clean than
the bathtub. Children who balk at
the idea of daily bath, IL left to
shower every morning. The fact that
the bathtub does not have to be filled
and that there Is no task of cleaning
the tub afterward perhaps may have
something to do with this preference.
OF course, if you have an inadequate
hot-water supply and depend some
times for your hot bath on kettles
of water heated on the stove then the
shower bath is not as satisfactory as
the tub. One must have hot water
on tap to make this plan attractive.
because very few persons can stand
a shower of water of the temperature
that comes from the pipes in this
weather. However. in the summer it
is easier. to take cold shower than
to plunge directly into a tub Of cold
water.
From the housewives point of view
the shower bath is attractive. With
the shower instead of the tub she
has no problem of keeping the porce-
lain tub clean. The only thing that
is needed for ordinary purposes is to
let the shower run for a little while
after each bath to see that the sides
and floor are rinsed out. Once a week
the sides Of the shower and the floor
may be washed with soap, but there
is hardly ever any necessity for using
securing or cutting preparations.
Some Of the new showers are 50
arranged that it is possible to stand
erect and not have the water touch
ones hair. This is possible because
the Jets Of water are arranged slight
1y to the side instead of directly over
head. Usually, however, it is neces-
sary to have a rubber cap. It Is best
not to use fancy caps such as one
uses at the seashore. but to get a
plain gray rubber of very good quail
ity. A cap should be always hung
conveniently by the shower for the
convenience of guests who may not
have caps Of their own for this pur-
pose.

THE FANC1FUL SHORT BOX COAT
BY ANNE RIrrENHoUsE.

The box coat is not q startling
novelty. It has gone in and out Of
fashion like . shuttle. This year it
arrives as a striking departure from
the slim, knee-length coat worn dur
ing the winter
No one feels especial enthusiasm
for the coat suit this early in the
winter when the public is in the
throes of delight over the full cape
and the one-piece frock. But every
one knows that those who go south
want a change from what they are
wearing. Also that the early spring
will bring several changes in the sill
houette. We have ceased to argue
against the incoming fullness of the
skirt. Those of US who have skirts
that are only fifty-four inches wide
at the hem are anxiously looking
at the width of the side seams. If
US in widening the skirt we are
thinking of the effect of broad braid
inserted in a long line from hip to
hem.
This common talk of preparing for
a full skirt Is everywhere. 1t shows
tHdL WOHen nave dCCeptSu Tie ptOph-
ecy of a quick change. There are
women wo now appear in skirts that
are five yards wide. There are even
ing gowns made for young girls that
are six yards wide, and the material
is taffeta and the trimming consists
of ruchings.
The tailored suit may not be as
wide in the skirt as the frock for
the evening, but there is evidence
for the incredulous that it will be
over two yards wide.
The skirts built like this cannot
carry long coats. The short box coat
goes well with them. 1t is worn by
older women as we'll as young girls
because it has sufficient fullness be-
low the shoulders to suggest the
ever-present cape.
1t is at it's best on the young girl.
The sketch shows such suit in blue
serge trimmed with red and green
braid in a serpentine pattern. 1t is
slashed over each hip. The wide
sleeves spring from a lowered arm
hole. Their hens uncover muslin
sleeve attached to a white blouse.
Such coats are made in covert cloth
trimmed with black or brown braid
and the blouse is of tan-colored
batiste fastened with small red but,
tons like peppermint drops that go in
a child's Christmas stocking.
None of the box coats for the spring
make a pretense of fastening. They
are adjusted like capes. They need
skillful filter. for If the shoulder
line is not perfect the neckline slips
toward the arm and destroys the hang
of the whole garment.
