WEEK DAY COURSE
Is SUCCESSFUL
FEEL THAT INSTRUCTION
IN RELIGION is
WORTH WHILE

Over 1000 children of the public
schools are taking week day religious
instruction in their respective church
es, according to the Ministerial asso-
citation which held a meeting last
Monday morning. The children TAX
ing these courses have been granted
permission to do so by their parents
and attend once week. The third,
fourth and fifth grade children go at
9:15 o'clock and the sixth, seventh
and eighth grade students at 10:45.
While this instruction breaks into
the regular instruction to some ex-
tent, it is no serious detriment to the
children's school work and according
to Supt. Tobey, it is expected that the
benefits to be obtained from religious
instruction in various denominational
schools will outweigh the loss of time
in school work proper.

THE HOME FOR THE AGED OF
THE NORTHWEST
RY SAMUEL COHEN

The Jewish Home for the Aged of
the Northwest some it is great
big question mark; to others, those
who have given the matter thought
and time, it is a matter of absolute
necessity and stern requirement.
When misfortune has robbed one of
his or her means and vitality, such
one may well consider himself or her
self as of the great army of the
Worlds Rejected.
In the Isle of Sumatra, tribe of
savages disposes of their aged by
taking them to the top of their tall
est trees and dropping them to the
ground. Here, in the heart of civil
lization, we drop them from our
minds,-they and their problems.
There are exceptions to this rule,
however, as was evidenced in 1907,
when Mrs. Mary Burton and small
group of ladies, with small purse and
mighty aims, organized the Jewish
Home for the Aged. Though years
have passed since the Home was or
ganized, they have been steadfast in
their devotion to the cause, and have
gained many adherents.
The Home, now at rs Wilkin street,
on the bluff Of the Mississippi River,
was purchased fifteen years ago from
the Banning estate, which had for
merly occupied it It was purchased
for comparatively small considera-
ton, and even then was covered by a
mortgage for considerable number
of years. Commencing with but two
or three inmates, and then serving
for other purposes also, such as shell
tering home, the institution has

rown steadily during the fifteen
years, until today it has an average
family of twenty residents. While
the present building has served it's
purpose, yet today as a result OF ex-
treme age, it has outworn its real
usefulness. The building does not
provide modern, fireproof, sanitary
home to which our aged unfortunates
especially are entitled.
Efficient management has been one
of the difficulties which makes the
problem of the Home serious one.
1t has been found necessary for the
proper conduct of a Home of this type
to have man Of attractive person
ality and ability, one who can safe
guard the interest of the institution
in it's inside problems, as we'll as one
who can obtain the interest and CO.
operation of the public. An organ
ization has accordingly been perfect
ed, whereby the Home now caters to,
and is under the management of, CO.
religionists of Minnesota, North and
South Dakota and Wisconsin, which
provides broader field in which to
work, and greater nucleus of Jews
from whom support for the institu
ton can be obtained, to the end that
a thoroughly modern and modernly
managed Home can really be main
tained.
Men who have devoted much time
to philanthropy and charity in Min
neapolis, Duluth, Fargo and ST. Paul,
have studied the problem and are
agreed upon the necessity of a better
and bigger home, able to take care of
applications from aged, many of
which have had to be turned down for
lack of space. Joseph Levy has been

OTHER JEWISH CONGREGATIONS

Synagogues catering to the rellg-
ious requirements of Jewish residents
which have not been referred to in
other columns of this paper are the
Adath Yeshurun, located at the cor
ner of 18th and Canada Streets, the
Sons of Moses Congregation, located
at 18th and Canada, and the Sons Of
Abraham, located at the corner Of
10th and Minnesota Streets.
The first two named are of recent
origin, having been formed within the
past fifteen years, as an outgroWth
of small minyonim which had devel-
oped with the growth during that pc
riod of time, of new Jewish section
in the so-called Lower Town District.
Both of these synagogues are now
housed in buildings which were for
merly Christian churches. In the
Sons Of Moses Synagogue, Hebrew
classes are conducted for the children.
Rabbi J. B. Hurvitz, who is at the
head of the Sons of Jacob Synagogue,
is also the Rabbi Of these synagogues.
The Sons of Abraham Congregation
has been housed in the former Tempe
of the Mt. Zion Congregation, which
was purchased by the Sons OF Abra-
ham at the time Of the erection of the
present Reform Temple. Within the
last few years, the building Of this
congregation has been thoroughly
renovated and redecorated. The build
ing is virtually only a stones throw
from St. Paul's busiest corner, and
it is likely that within few years, a
new home for the congregation will
be built somewhere in the hill district.
The congregation is one of the oldest
in the city, having been organized
many years ago as a minyon by a few
Jewish families then residing in what
is known as the Payne Avenue dis
trict. The Rabbi of this congregation
! is Rev. E. Cohen. The officers are:
President, M. Zimmerman; Vice-Pres-
ident, Abraham Fineberg; Secretary,
Aaron Sains; and Treasurer, z. L.

plan enough money was raised to take
care of the biggest part of the mort
gage at that time, and the balance
shortly after, and today the congre-
cation is free of any membranes,
as stated before. A great deal Of
credit is due to the above men. AS
a matter of fact, it is said today that
if it were not for these men who de-
vised this plan of raising the needed
money, there would have been great
difficulty in saving the institution.
The present officers are S. Coddon,
president; J. Malkin, vice president;
M. Rosenholz, treasurer; and B. Lev

trustees: M. Oglansky, I. Pavian,

Charlie White shifted his train
ing activities to Rock Island today
A special tent on the grounds OF
the Trans-M Mississippi Exposition
and Pageant of Progress has been
erected for his use and was occu-
pied the first time this afternoon.
The ring of the Davenport Legion
post, which will be used Tuesday,
has been installed in Whites tent
quarters. There is adequate space
for spectators.
Due to the fact that considerable
expense was involved in establish
ing Whites training grounds on
this side of the river, charge OF
10 cents is to be made for the priv
ilege of seeing him work out
against his sparring partners. Mon
ey thus realized will be for the

plans to start his workout about 4

The Islanders have won five

surely going along in fine style
at this stage of the game. Only
a lucky turn of events against
them at Waterloo yesterday
prevented the team from max
ing 1t three out of four from
Ragan's crew. Judging by re-
ports, by all that is good in the
game of baseball, Jimmy Con-
zelman connected for a base hit
in any league in the ninth
frame with SWenSon on second.
The ball, however, is said to
have struck StimSOn on the foot
and rebOunded into the hands
of the third sacker. Pezdirtz,
the third baseman, did not real
ize he had caught the ball, as
his wild throw TO third would
indicate. SwenSOn scored the
