CoIHLHuHlCy is OF prOpOrC1OnaCe size,
as that proportion exists in the middle
west. The community has all of the
healthy and normal activities, social
and religious, that may be expected
of it. 1t has few if any serious So
cial problems and just the necessary
social equipment to combat them. To
recount the activities of such field
may be an uninteresting task and
makes not too interesting reading. 1t
has its normal quota of purposeless
societies upon which attempts have
been made to graft purposes, which
are everywhere called into being and
subsisting upon the enthusiasm of it's
sponsors, they last an allotted time
as testimony to mankind's redeeming
desire for fellowship and the individ-
uals incurable aspiration to leader
ship. But there are many organiza-
lions that serve a very useful pur-
pose, pre-eminently the several reli-
gious organizations and the Talmud
Torah. Others which are to lesser
religious extent in character are the
B'nai Birth, Duluth Hebrew Brother
hood, The Zionists, The Arbeiter Ring,
The Ladies' Temple Aid, The Sisters
of Israel, The Council of Jewish Wo-
men, Junior Auxiliary and Junior
Zionist societies, The Kodivrim Soci-
ETY., the 0. B. A. Lodges, the Y. M.
H. A. and the Y. w. H. A., the Hach-
nosas Orchim. and Bikur Cholim.
These organizations carrying on
routine business without variation
from one year to the next are not,
except the charitable organizations,
of interest to many outside of their
immediate membership.
Of course there are some exceptions
to this rule.
lated drive for our starving co-reli-
staged. There had been no drive in
Duluth the year before, and but the
year prior the drive had been very
successful. The drive last year was
not very successful for various rea-
sons. Communication with the area
of the wars devastation had been re-
established and the private purses
were being taxed to the utmost, much
being spent toward transportation.
This really doubled the demands here
tofore laid upon the bounty of Amer
lean Jews.
AHOCner ACTIVITY IndC SCanQS OUT
in the years endeavor is the concert
ed effort to form a central function
ing directorate of all the Jewish So
cial welfare agencies in the city. In
this body all such agencies will have
representation. It will direct the COL
lection and distribution of all funds
necessary to carry on the philan-
thropic and social improvement work
within the community. Mr.. E. A.
Silberstein, who refers to this work
elsewhere in this issue, is the execu-
tive genius of this plan. Mr.. Silber-
stein has been commissioned by the
Commercial Club of Duluth to develop
a similar idea for the entire city and
put it in operation. Once in opera
ton the idea will eliminate much
duplication in every angle of
administration; collection and distri-
button and other overhead expenses.

In a recent contest sponsored by
a New York newspaper, F.orenz
Ziegfeld, famous theatrical pro-
producer and creator OF the Mid
night Follies," announced Mary
Miles Minter and Justine Johnstone
as two of the five most beautiful
women on the screen. The other
three were Mary Pckford. Norma
Talmadge and Marion Davies.
Constance Binney, Alice Brady
Justine tombstone, Wanda Haw!ey
and Bebe Daniels are we'll known
in film circles, and are all pos
sessed of beauty and brains. But
the fact that Florenz Ziegfeld, con-
noisseur of feminine beauty, should
single out Miss Minter and Miss
tombstone as members of the quin-
tette of the screens superlatively
beautiful women is naturally very
gratifying to their company Off
Gals.
Miss Minter, who has been on
the stage since she was q wee child
of five years, and is a pioneer of
the screen at the youthful age of
eighteen, has following of ad-
mirers that is positively over
whelmipg. Her fan mail is so large
that it is handled by a secretary
and a staff Of stenographers, who
devote their time exclusively to an
swering fan letters and complying
with requests for photographs.
Miss Minter's beauty is very dis
tinctive and of that type that ap-
peals to all. AS for her acting

REORGAN|Z AT|ON
Of DEMOCRATIC
PARTY IS URGED
MCAdoo Says the Recent De-
feat Was Due Largely to
a Lack of Effective Ma
tionaI Organization.

Los Angeles, Calf. Jan, Sim
me diate steps to organize the dem
oeratic party for future campaigns
under q national chairman, who
will "devote all or practically all of
his time to party affairs" were
urged tonight by William G., Nc
Adoo5 former secretary of the
treasury, at a Jackson day dinner
of the Southern California Demo-
cratic club here.
Mr.. McAdoo said the recent DEM
ocratic defeat was due in large
measure to a lack of effective ma
tional organization and to the fail
ure to get the democratic side be-
fore the people through proper
publicity" He declared he wished
to criticise methods rather than in
dividuals, and continued:
THE officers of the national
committee are the business man
ayers of the party and political
parties in these days require bust
ness management of the highest
order. 1t is not the duty of the
national officers to determine party
policies nor to select the presiden-
tial candidates nor to use the
powers of their offices to influ-
ence the selection Of party candi-
dates nor to champion the cause of
any candidate for the presidential
nomination. Nothing could moro
certainly destroy the usefulness OF
national officers than to become
involved in matters of this sort. The
establishment and maintenance of
permanent national headquarters,
with sufficient force to carry on
it's legitimate operations. the rails
ing of necessary funds for this
purpose, the educational work 10
be done through proper publicity,
are all objects of the highest i'm
pcrtance and should receive the
whole thought and attention Of the
national officers"
In all parts of the country, Mr..
McAdoo said, democrats "are ask
ing eagerly what is to be done for
the future"
eve must have party leadership
in the future that will stay on the
Job and that will make the business
of the democratic party its only
lob"
