gayer and loyelier than ever.
"Dear me, dear me, what is this?"
exclaimed the Clouds suddenly.
Up in an airship came Billie
Brownie.

party for Miss Rose Cloud today"
he said breathlessly, "and / brought
a bunch of rare spring flowers to
her."
The flowers were bluebells or Lung
worts. They were of great clusters
of purplish-bluish flowers and were
just as lovely as they could be.
'How very gracious Of you" said
Miss Rose Cloud, who had heard the
noise from Billie Brownies airship,
and had appeared.
You're out ahead of time" laughed
the Clouds, "but no matter! This is
such an exciting gift"

Miss Rose Cloud said she would like
to come out repeatedly and have

consecrate and Concentrate, Is the
Advice Given by Writer in
Forbes Magazine.

You want to make Roadway In the
world, of course. See if this thought
can help you: First, consecrate your
self to your calling; then concentrate.
THE lives of most men Of notable
achievement have been characterized
by conservation and concentration. Be
fore one can consecrate oneself, one
must be possessed by some bigger and
broader and better idea than mere
money making. There must be some
thing in the work that appeals to one.
The work must appear to be worth
while. worth effort and industry and
sacrifice. You could not, for exam

Solomon said he that findeth a wife
f1ndeth a good thing, but you will
notice he did not say a word about
the luck of the lady in the case.
At that married people probably
think more of each other after mar
rage than they did before. But their
thoughts are different.
Whenever we see a girl wearing
more clothes than the fashion calls
for we know 1t isn't due to her mod
esty, but a pride that makes her
ashamed to let the fellows see how
bowlegged or knockneed she is.
One idea of crime wave is bobbed

Another way of getting one of nfe's
hardest bumps is just to take too
much for granted.
The Invisible hair nets the girls
wear are not much more invisible

by Belgium at the low instigation Of

it wasn't true; but she made an inn

was quite COMPOUNDED by her introduce
ton Of printed matter.
When the debates and the verdicts
were concluded, the orator appeared,
and Fred's compassion extended itself
so far that he even refrained from
looking inquisitiyely at the boy in the
seat next to his; but he made one side
of a wager, mentally-that If Ramsey
had consented to be thoroughly con-
fidential just then, he would have con-
fessed to feeling kind o. funny.

she was pale; but those notable eye
Iashes of hers were all the more no.

spoke with fire, it was natural that
her color should come back quite fam
ingly and that her eyes should flash in
shelter of the lashes. 'The Christian
Spirit and Internationalfsm" was her
subject, vet she showed no meek SAM
pie of a Christian Spirit herself when
she came to attacking war-makers
generally, as well as all those "half-
developed tribesmen" and victims Of
herd instinct" who believed that war
might ever be justified under any cir
cumstances of atrocity. She was elo-
quent truly, and a picture Of grace
and girlish dignity, even when she
was most vigorous. Nothing could
have been more militant than her de-
nunciation of militancy.
"She's an actual WONDER" Fred
said, when the two had got back to
Mrs. Meigs' afterward. Don't you
look at me like that; I'm talkin' about
her as a public character, and there's
nothin' personal about it. You let me

Ramsey was not clear as to his
duty. "WeIl--"

Jewish religion and studies in Soviet

Jewish religion and studies in Soviet
Russia.
According to accounts, the confis-
cation of Hebrew books, the ban on
the Heder and Jewish studies, the re-
strictions upon the full exercise of
the Jewish religion by the Soviet au-
thorities and, worst of all, by the
Jewish CD commissars have become
so rigid as to endanger the very ex-
istence of Jewish life in Russia.
Proclaiming fast day because of
a calamity or threatened danger is
not new in Jewish annals. How effec-
tive such fast days are, is, of course,
open to question. The skeptic- will
base his doubts upon the continued
Jewish suffering. The mystic will
argue that the survival of the Jew
proves that fasting and prayer have
not been in vain.
- There is also a practical side to
fast days like these; namely, the
"Pidyon," or the money payment
which individuals may make in lieu
of the fast. If all Jews who feel dis
tressed at the persecution of Judaism
would make contribution to the War
Relief, for instance, as an exemption
from fasting, think Of the sums that
could be raised!
We trust that the proclamation of
this fast will gain wide publicity. It
will serve to bring to the attention of
the many who still pirate so glibly of
the intimate relationship between the
Jews and Bolshevism the fact that in
many parts of Russia the Jew and
his religion are the greatest sufferers
from Bolshevism.

E DI TORlAL
AN INTERESTING ANNIVERSARY

"Rishon L'Zion," or "Zion's First"
the pioneer Of the modern agricultur-
al colonies established in Palestine,
is about to celebrate the fortieth ami
versary Of it's founding.
During the four decades of it's ex-
istence, the colonists have endured
much, survived much, and accom-
plished much. They have seen at
tempts at settlement in Palestine CIV
en- the acid test of endurance. They
have lowered between hope and de-
spair. During the last two decades,
they have seen the irresistible course
of events in Jewish life vindicate the
judgment and the idealism of the
"Bilu" who went forth, in the early
eighties of the last century, to build
up Palestine for the Jews.
And now, at the close of their forty
years of wandering, albeit in the
Prom ed Land, yet wandering
through wilderness of hardship, un-
preparedness and trial, they have the
consolation of seeing the Mandate
ratified and the real settlement of
Palestine en- masse about to begin.
Is there not something symbolic in
the fact that forty years have elapsed
between the founding of "Rishon L.
Zion" and the ratification of the Man
date? The wandering in the wilder
ness is ending. We are on the thresh-
old of the Promised Land. May the
Jew enter and possess it!
