AND
WATERWORKS
PROPOSED

Mr.. Lawrence White has been in
Covington, this week, looking up the
matter of instituting waterworks and
sewers in CoVington. Mr.. White is
with Engineer K. A. Kramer, who
has plated Covington so that no
one will be without the service, in
case the proposition goes through
There is no improvement more great
ly needed in Covington than this,
and public opinion seems strongly in
favor of it now. It is said that the
cost Of construction has been SO
greatly reduced that the plan is now
feasible and can be economically
carried out without overburdeninG
the town. 1t is proposed that Il
meeting shall be held soon to dis
cuss the matter.
A special feature Of Mr.. Kramer's
plan is that everybody within the
corporate limits Of Covington would
get the service of both water and
sewers. This is question that has
been harder to solve heretofore thaa

REV. j. III. FOSTER.

Those who have attended the SER
vices at the Methodist Church and
listened to the discourses of Rev. J.
H. Foster, have gone away with
better understanding Of christion
duty and a greater desire for the full
fillment of the obligations resting on
the member of a church. There is
probably no better informed minister
in the Southwest and none who is
more filled with the desire to serve
God. Hence the charm of his per-
sonality goes out to his audience and
his influence for good becomes
valuable asset to any church. We
bespeak for Rev. Foster the accom-
plishment of much good for the
Methodist Church, spiritually, which
also means financially. The cosy
quarters offered by the new church
building, with the very interesting
sermons of Rev Foster, should
awaken an interest that will bring in
a large congregation from Methodists
here.

this particular cocktail has some

Under the topic of the Financing

York, and Mr.. Solomon Ulmer of
Cleveland, gave helpful suggestions
Rabbi Abraham A, Hershman of De-

by Mr.. Raphael H. Melamed of Far

bert Levinthal of Brooklyn, N. Y. A
most interesting general discussion
followed.
On Sunday evening, representative.
of Young Peoples Organizations af
filiated with the United Synagogue
Congregations throughout the coun.
try, and representative of national
Young Peoples Organizations met to
discuss the relationship Of the United
Synagogue to the young people. AS a
result there was organized Young
Peoples League of the United Syna.
gogue.
On Monday morning, Jan. 18th, the
reports of the branches of the United
Synagogue occupied the opening place
on the program. They showed without
exception, that crying need fol
United Synagogue activity was being
fulfilled and that charging the scope
Of activities was imperative. Profess
sor Louis Ginsberg Of New York, gave
the Report of the Committee on the
Interpretation of Jewish Law, giving
several concrete examples of which
type Of questions which had been put
to that Committee, and the rulings
which had been made. He made cleai
the position Of the committee, whose
function was to interpret the Law, not
to modify it or change it. The Torah
is conceded to be perfect but not com.
plete. 1t is the pride Of Judaism that
1t was not the instrument Of antiquity
However no committee can modify or
change them. That must be done by
the authority Of the whole Of Jewry
not American Jewry alone. Said DR..
Ginsberg, "You who as l am firmly
convinced, have outgrown provincial
Judaism are working for a United Is.
rael, could never solve the question Of
Jewish Law satisfactorily as long a,
you approach it from the point Of view
of American Jewry. For the present
we cannot but say, "Hands off Jewish
law!' DR.. Ginsberg protested against
rationalizing religion to the exclusion
Of everything mystical in it. Higher
criticism, he said was not infallible
and had not had opportunity to stand
the test Of time. One decade, he stated
had been the average life Of the var,
ious schools Of higher criticism. Tn,
Average Jew, on the other hand, he
felt had no need for higher criticism.
A general discussion on the paper fol-
lowed
