LET PRESENTS JEWISH CON
. TRIBUTION.

New York Citt.-The Council OF
yewish Women, through its National
eommittee on Religion. of which Mrs.
Felix A. Levy of Chicago is Chairman,
has just issued the first Of its publi-
cations on Jewish Music. This course
of eight Illustrated lectures was pre-
pared by Mrs Samuel 8. Cohen OF
Chicago 1t Is comprehensive and
Interesting presentation of this sub

pxDpriately selected. The local Sex
tions of the Council throughout the
ceuntry have arranged for Study Cir
cles devoted to the discussion of this
heoklct and the presentation of its il
Nstrated lectures.
Mrs. Cohon makes the following an
nlysis Of Jewish Music:
s..If we meet Jewish music with any
u1sgiving. 1t is because the world in
which the Jew lives has been so full
OF superstitions against him, that he
himself has often come to believe many
of, the preiudices of his neighbors.
Thus we find Jews and .mnny Of
item, Jews of standing-who repeat
tle accusation OF our enemies that the
J{w has contributed nothing to art.
Jews too can dream; and their hearts
given expression to those dreams. Con-
tsary to the popular belief of Jew and
gsntile, music is one of. the realms
OF art In which the Jew has made
Considerable contribution. and in which
nikny generations o devoted Jews have
1a3,ored to create, preserve. and re-
cfeate the melodies that express the
sdul Of the Jew in prayer and Mt play.

reaches Of the dim past. seeking the

his tones from the silent beginnings
Of time We can no longer gnze the
distance TO our music's source. We
strain our ears to catch the sounds
'6f the early expression Of our peoples

those lyric strains Of the shepherd on
tise hill-tops Of the Holy Land. the
Joyous abandon Of the music Of the
youths and maidens as they danced in
the open field. the swelling notes of
tlse full-heartetl praise for the bounty
0f t1le harvest. These songs have
dr1te<l out to the ends Of time, and
'czn no more be heard. What joy
then, to gather the later flowers of
tiyese ancient roots Of song. and find
them sweet! The music that We have

this course as propaganda for the pre-

For three dollars and a half?

And there is no amendment offer

Cotton twenty cents dear farmer,
Twenty cents you shout.

And you think you are coming out
Then the factory owner buys il, |
Spin and weave and dye it blue,
AT ten cents pound expenses, |
Tlen comes back the cloth to you. |
With a profit of two dollars,
On each manufactured round,

the following to say concerning the re-

Andrew Weiss, in charge of the work
of the Reclamation Service upon the
North Platte River, was also a mem
Der of the party.
"These gentlemen made a careful
examination of the projects that have
been under investigation and study by
the state and federal government for
over a e past. All the officials were
much pleased with what they saw dur
ing their trip in the valley, and as a
result the actual construction and de-
velopment of at least one project by
the Reclamation Service is assured.
Director Davis and Engineer Wey-
o stated that the Saratoga pro-
ject would rank well among the best
of the irrigation projects in the entire
