My Proud Moment.

Dear Uncle Jed: 1t is quite while since you heard from me so hope to in terest you and all the Wide-Awakes. It was the close of the school year Tn Valley Academy The final sxarnana- tions were being held and all were anx- ious to get high marks. had received the best marks in the preceding tests.
 The girl sitting behind me had alsc noticed that I was puzzled for she sud dsnly slipped to me a paper containsng the difficult problem, the only one could not do.
 I hesitated for something told me someone was looking at me. so I rolled it up into a tiny ball and threw H ou' of the open window.
 At the reading of the marks I had moi the highest mark which I night have he'd, but Professor Harper, who had watched me all the time, praised ma highly for my honorable act.
 That was my only proud moment II my life.

A Deserted House


 Dear Uncle Jed: This is the second time I have written to the Wide-Awake Circle and I am going to tell you about an old house on the road.
 One time last summer and a friend of mine were going after milk in a truck. While we were going down we came 10 Q deserted house on the road. The girl I was with wanted me to go in. At inst I did not want to but after a while I decided to go in. The door was nor locked so we went in. It was a mess paper hanging cR the wall and boxes oi ali sorty were in the kitchen. Then we decided to ED on, go we went in whas was supposed to be the bedroom. In that room we found papers of all sorts bills and lettArs and would you think that there were iron bars in the win dows2
 We kept on going and found that all the rooms were in about the ssme condition as the others. We started to go dowr cellar but the stairs did not look strong enough. Then we continued our journey after mix. I was very glad when we got home for I had heard before that the house was haunted.

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

who have used exactly the same meth
ods as are now being used against
the Jews to discredit them in the
eyes of their Protestant neighbors.
1t occurs to us that the Pope might
use his influence to have influential
Catholics dissuaded from becoming
leaders of movement based upon
class and religious prejudices. I
should imagine they would have suf-
ficient to do to protect themselves
against the almost universal attacks
that are made against their own
church without spending effort and
time to arouse hatred against the
Jews.
Magazines are now filled with arti-
cles deploring the "alien" influences
in our midst that are disintegrating
"American civilization; and I just
finished reading an article by one,
Glno Speranza, New York lawyer,
and a Connecticut Yankee born of
Italian parents. He too strikes the
same false note as do the rest when
he talks about Old Stock and New
Stock. One observes that if a coun-
try confines itself long enough ex-
clusively to Old Stock in the end it
has no stock worth speaking of.
Would these folk have only the men
who traded whiskey for furs with the
Indians represented in this country?
The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1922-06-09

What is America? What does it rep
resent to the rest of the world? A
country peopled by early Families?
Or does it represent in fact spirit
OF loving kindness, of justice tenn
pered with mercy, of good will to all
nations of the earth? And do you
or does any writer believe for a mo-
ment that this combination of gen
crosby, kindness, love, justice, mercy
this spirit of freedom and liberty:
this goodwill toward all peoples; the
unselfishness of America; I ask, do
they think that this is the result of
Old Stock alone. Trace back our his
tory as far as you choose and you
will find some foreigner who too
caught the spirit of America whether
it was Lafayette, or a Kosciusko
or a Haym Solomon, and who con-
trlbuted to make possible the high
ldealism that were in the minds and
hearts of the founders of the Re-
public.
And so all through the years, the
decades, the generations and the CEN
turtles poured into this country the
foreigner and who has helped to make
that idealism that we concretely
term America. Americanism doesn't
mean necessarily that all peoples shall
eat with finger bowls, shall have the
same kinds Of homes. That they
shall have Yankee cooking. Or that

nc one can be considered a good
American unless he talks through his
nose, and wears whiskers like Uncle
Sam. This sounds like levity but it
is tragically serious. The trouble
with men and women who today are
talking about American ideals, and
American civilization simply do not
understand what they are talking
about. This has been melting pot
but not in the sense that Zangwill
meant it; not melting pot where
physical characteristics or even men,
tai peculiarities were lost, but where
a spiritual ideal was brought into
being called America. And this has
been a melting pot not within the
past fifty years but ever since the
days when the Indians, the native
Americans, were killed off by the
mass invasion of the whites. America
isn't place but a condition of mind
it is the spirit of forwardness-
it is the spirit of something that no
one can define in it's entirety.

alton ideas possessed by the Ku Klux
Klan, the Patriotic League of America
and the Junior Order of American
Mechanics.
Not long ago the students at the
Americanization school at Washing
ton were asked to write composition
on the lives of Lincoln and Washing
ton-and this Jewish boy from Poland,
not able to speak English without
stumbling wrote wonderful poem on
Washington, the first stanza reading
like this:
II see him, he is before my eyes,
The rider who is hurrying to free his
Over fields and rivers he is flying on
A sword in hand, but his face is SOFT"
And these:
"Not great is the number of his
knights,
But great is their spirit that binds
them together tight"
l doubt whether even some of the
gentlemen who conduct the examina-
tons in Americanization could have
struck such high note as Sam Cohen,
the Jewish boy from Poland.
And how many NATIVE BORN
100 PER CENT AMERICANS could
have caught this spirit of Abraham
Lincoln:
"Who is the man
Who learned the wisdom from Mother
Nature,
Learned to write without pen
And whose words were more than
Whose words were for the peoples
Clear like the skies on summer days"
AS predicted in this column time
and again Henry Ford is out for
President. Already his we'll organ
lied underground" hirelings are busy
trying to "bore from within.' Ford
Llzzies will never carry Ford to the
White House: it would be one of the
gravest menaces this nation has ever
experienced if by some accident or
fuke one of his type of mind should
be in the Presidents chair. He is
thoroughly unqualified for such
position mentally and Temperament
tally. Mr.. Brisbane seems to think
that Ford is wrong principally on the
Jewish question and the currency
question. He is wrong on so many
questions that when it comes to even
thinking of him in terms of the
Presidency of this country he is just
a mess. Speaking of the Newberry
expense account, that will look like a
two cent piece alongside what Ford
and his friends will spend in his cam
paign. It will also be interesting to
learn how the ''high minded" Ford
will handle the expenses without max
ing them look too "plutocratic."
It comes with poor grace for three
Roman Catholics to be the most out

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDEN
 Help! He1pi My dears! It has been seventeen years and over that l have been getting my knowledge of things medical. I cannot show you the wealth of my mind in moment. Truly, can't. If I am to write on all of the things that have been request ed it is going to take some months and I promise to do my durndest, but have a hearti Don't expect them all at once.
 You know that if I were to write articles containing solely condensed facts and solemn advice. you wouldn't t read it. My idea is that by giving you just a few of the things that you should know in each article, you will read them and you will remember them and you will want more. You have already showed me that you do these things.
 Write me if you want to, about your troubles. and if I can answer them in the -to-correspond- ents. days, or in the special articles, I will do that as soon as possible. But please remember I cannot answer per sonal letters. Do not wait for my advice if you have anything that re- quires attention. but go to the best physician in your city and tell him your troubles.
 The Best Physician How is the 1ayman to know who is the best physician? That is an inn portant question. I will admit Of course the best physician for one may not be the best physician for another, for because of the profound effects of the emotions upon the body, the ele- ment of personal confidence and in spiration enters very much into the results of a physician. However, in most things, all the confidence in the world will not take the place of train ing, and skill and experience.
 I will tell you some of the things that you should ask if you are in need Of a physician and have none whose work you have proved. 1. Is he a graduate of a college that has high educational requirement. as a &relifninary to entering? The high class colleges now are requiring four years of high school and two years of collegiate work as entrance re- quirement. This insures trained mind and one that is capable of talk ing the high technical training re- quired A study of such comp1exity as the body in health and disease and all of the factors that make for health and disease, requires a trained mind to start with.

 SYNOPSIS

John Bolt, ssthe finest speci- men of manhood in Nevada" is delegated to act as guide to the mine-owner and a party Of East ern tourists. This task is not to his liking, but he quickly falls under the spell of Lorah Waring, who deliberately sets out to make a conquest of him. She gets him to talk of his life and his am- bitfonS and sows the seeds of un- rest in his mind by her Vivd pie lures of the East and by her dis approval of his manner of lfy- ing.
 The party has lunch at Bolts cabin, and Jorah critfcizes the crudeness of the place. Bolt con- tinues to act as guide throughout the afternoon and at evening" ac- companies the party to their pri- vate car. Then he returns to his cabin and finds it has lost all its charm. As he sits in the chair which Lorah occupied he secs a glittering object at his feet. He picks it up. 1t is gold card case set with saDhires and diamonds. He opens it and then takes out one of Lorah's cards. Then he realizes she is married, but tries to convince himself she is a wid- oN. The card-caSe offers him an excuse for seeing Lorah again. So after supper he hastens down to the railroad. She is waiting for him. Seated on the obser- yation platform they chat, Lorah leading him on. He seems on the verge of declaration, and Lorah shrinlks from it. Perhaps you'd better not tell me then," said she. 'EAfter all we don't know each other very well, do we?"
 "No," he admittedly grimly, we don't! That's what makes it all so strange!"

 sAzor of Diet ea .sa1fa Ksy to Ase caiors

All over the country are so-cal1ed colleges in the business solely, to make money, that profess to give de- grees that give athe title of doctor. All they require, apparently. for en- trance is the ability to read and write, Many of these give correspondence courses. As a res-,lt, anyone who has the price can en ter and take their degree and be foisted on the public to take your life in their hands if. by their alluring ads. they give you con- fidence and you go to them.
 do not blame people for being ambitioups and wanting to get the title of doctor. I blame the states for licensing these comm ercial col 1eges that teach there is only one cause of disease and only one method of treatment so that anyone who bears the title of doctor can be trust ed to havea trained. educated mind, and a four years course in the tech nical and scientific knowledge. This training cannot be received in less time.
 2. What is his standing n his own profession? Is he a member in good standing in his county medical so- ciety?
 3. Is his personal character one Of honesty and integrity? Perhaps this should have been first.)
 If it is a surgeon you need, he should have all of these qualities and one other. Has he served a long ap- premiership with an older and resog- nized surgeon of merit?
 We have now an association of sur geons known as the F. A. c. S.-the Fellowship of the American College of Surgeons. Any surgeon who is member of that must have had a long series of successful operations and a long experience with good physicians. The requirements to be a member are on merit only.
 These qualities in a physician or surgeon are the fundamentals requir- ed. Absolutely dependable charac- ter; a trained, educated mind; a grad uate Of high class college; and ex- perience gotten or being got in clinics or personal relationship under recog- nized and meritorious physicians of standing.
 A physician who has these quail fications, if he keeps up with the pro- gress of his profession, should come under the head of a good physician.
