interesting talk to the seminary stu
dents Monday. His subject was, The
Greatness of the Man Who Failed"
mastery Characterization of Wood
row Wilson. The members of. the
French class in the seminary and
the Allen school were delighted on
Thursday morning to have with them
Mr.. KIotz, who gave a reading in
French The story of Joan of Arc
lost nothing in the telling, and the
girls really seemed to understand.
The seminary Y. w. c. A. gave
cordial welcome to Miss Lawson, the
field secretary, when she spent Thurs
day in the school. After the tmpor-
tant business of the cabinet was mn
ished, the student body and faculty
were invited to meet Miss Lawson at
an informal o'clock tea in the par
lors.
On Saturday evening of last week
Miss Morton was hostess at a deiignt-
full progressive game party, given TO

crowd. At 10 refreshments were
served.
Miss Poynter, delegate to the edu-
ca tfonal convention from Science Hill

visitor to the seminary on FRIDAY

On Saturday evening the girls anu
teachers of the seminary were invited
by Miss Morton to spend social hour
at Margaret Allen school. The tea-
lures of the evening were stunts,

THE SITUATION IN PALES-
TINE

London, J. T. A., May 9-Dis-
patches from Jaffa and Jerusalem
indicate that complete order has
not yet been restored in the
country. On Saturday, Chedera in
Symaria, was again attacked by
the Jewish Self-Defense Corps,
drove back the Arabs with hand
grenades and bombs. The Arabs
however, reorganized their forces
and returned to plumber homes
and stores. At this juncture the
military arrived and successfully
repu1sed the attacking party.
Three Jews were killed and
one wounded during an attack on
Petach- Tikvah. There were like
wise several Arab casualties.
Arab demonstrants at Ramleh
yesterday attempted to interrupt
railway traffic between Jerusalem
and Jaffa but their efforts were
frustrated by the British troops
who hurriedly arrived on the
scene.

"Maybe they were drowned in
the sea-" answered the Jewess.
"Rear children for food for
fishes" walled the Gentle wom-
an.
'And maybe they are alive"
said the Jewess, optimistically.
"And maybe they are alive" re-
peated the Gentle woman.
"And maybe they have made
their fortunes,' said the Jewess
hopefully.
"And maybe they have their
own fields and houses" pursued
the Gentle woman.

''The Lord will not forsake u.s."
pursued the Gentle woman.
And they forgot, for the mo-
ment, which god they were ap-
pealing to, whether it was the one
for whom the sabbath candles
had been lit, or the one in the
misty corner. And the two
women fell asleep with Gods
name on their lips, and hope in
their hearts, sitting on the little
box in the corner.
In the little house, the two
gods quarreled, the little sabbath
candles on the table, and the lit
tie lamp in front of the holy pic
ture. And, silently, silently, they
both went out. Everything
went to rest, fell asleep in the
dark room, on this Friday night.

World Zionist Executive Issues
Statement on Taffa Situation.

Statement on Jaffa Situation.
London-The Executive of the
World Zionist Organization. to-
day issued a statement denying
the possibilities of connecting the
recent events in Jaffa with any
action on the part of Communists
or Russian Bolsheviks, basing it's
opinion on the policy of the Com
munists to fraternize with the
Arabs, and submitting that, such
being the case, the radicals were
not likely to attack the Arab ma
tives. The statement contains the
supposition that the difficulty in
Jaffa arose when anti Jewish
agitators took advantage of an
unimportant factional strife be-
tween Jewish laborers. This is
the more likely explanation in
view of the anti Jewish propagan-
da rampant in Palestine during
the last few months. ....
The Zionist Executive calls on
all Zionists to remain calm, assur-
ing them that neither the British
government nor world public
opinion will be affected by vio-
lence and disorders. The High
Commissioner, it adds, possesses
the unshakable confidence of the
entire Jewish people and of all
peace-loving elements in Pales-
tine. The untoward events would
never have occurred, it says, had
the tens of thousands of Jewish
immigrants now waiting outside.
the gates of Palestine, been per-
mitted to enter and settle there.
The Jewish people must reply to
the Jaffa events by placing at the
disposal of the Zionist Organiza-
ton sufficient funds to greatly i'm
crease immigration and to take
preventive measures against fur

NolIICl, uCdl TIC Wl1luOW, over the
Gentle woman's bed, hung holy
picture, in front of which burned
a little lamp.
The Jewess was afraid to look
at the corner where the holy pic
ture was hanging, lest she might
sin with her eyes. And she
imagined that the eyes of the
Christ, crowned with thorns,
were piercing her, from the dis
lance. The old Day-of-
Atonement prayer book, which
she had inherited from her
mother, she covered up with the
Turkish shawl, SO that the Gen
tile woman should not see it.
And, when the night fell, and it
was time to say the prayers be-
fore retiring to rest, she placed
her little box right in the corner,
so as to prevent the Christ from
hearing her prayers.
The Gentle woman behaved in
the same way. At night, when
it was time for her to say her
prayers, she waited until the Jew
ess had fallen fast asleep. And
she hid herself away in her cor
ner, SO that the Jewess and her
god, which she had in her little
box-the prayer book wrapped in
the Turkish shawl-should not
hear a word of what she was say
ing.
The first Friday evening, the
Jewess prepared to light her sab
bath candles in her own corner.
She spread a table cloth over her
little box, took out her two can
dlesticks, fitted the candles into
them, put on her sabbath cap, and
began to say her prayers. This
annoyed the Gentle woman in
her heart. A Jewish festival was
being celebrated in her house!
She should not show her annoy
ance. But, seeing that the Jew
ess was praying in front of her
god-the holy picture she kpelt
down in front of it, crossed her
self, and beat her breast. The
Jewess could not stand this. Just
when she was praying over the
sabbath candles
When Coda had finished pray
ing, she placed a loaf of wheaton
bread on the table, and the plate
of fish which neighbor sent her
every sabbath.
The Gentle. woman got up,
from kneeling before the holy pic
ture. She went over to the Jew
ess's table. The Jewess offered
her some fish. They ate and
talked together of different
things.
It was very warm in the room.
The Gentle woman had made the
stove very hot for the sake of the

fish on the table, and lit her sab
bath candles, and her husband,
Baruch, was singing the sabbath
hymns, she looked out of her win
dow, and saw. the Gentle wheel
ing his barrow of sand, covered
with sack, she said to her hus-
band:
Surely, they have no sabbath
at all! What a religion theirs
isw
A long time went by. The
neighbors grew older. Their
children in America, Chayim and
Antik, were again lost. They
sent no more letters, or photo
graphs, or pieces of paper for
which the money changer gave
seven roubles and fifty groschens.
The Jewess and the Gentle
woman again quarreled, each say
ing that the son of the other had
led her son into the ways of de-
struction.
The Jewess's portion of the
house was altogether ruined by
the water from Feuerstein's
store house. The roof fell in on
top of the walls which shook and
trembled under the lightest
breeze that blew. The chimney
fue collapsed, and the smoke
filled the whole house. With the
half rouble a week which she got
from her partner, as a share of
the profits Git was the custom
amongst the fishermen to pay the
widow a share of her late hus-
bands business, even though she
had no money in it) the widow
had scarcely enough for bread
and milk and a scrap of meat for
the sabbath. Out of this, she
paid the linen draper twenty
groschens week for the calico
for her grave clothes. Anyway,
IN the summer, she lived in her
portion of the house as best she
could. But, when the winter
came, with it's biting frosts, she
thought she would go and live
with her re1ative-in-law, Blooma,
a woman of eighty years of age.
No, she could not give Blooma
the satisfaction of being able to
say that she, Coda, had to come
to her table, after all. There was
nothing left for Coda to do but
move into a corner of the Gentle
woman's little room. Even al
though she was a Gentle, "a
good neighbor is better than a
distant relative"
The Gentle woman received
her most respectfully, and gave
her a corner beside the stove.
Coda had not many things to
carry over from her roon-the
winter featherbed, the two sab
bath cand1esticks. the little cuD-
