RESENTED ON AMERICAN
JEWISH COMMTTTEE

Eleven national Jewish organiza-
ions now have representatives in the
American Jewish Committee and It
is expected that other bodies will also
accept the invitation of the commit
tee to elect their representatives.
The basis for the representation of
national Jewish organizations in the
committee was laid down several
years ago when the bylaws of the
committee were amended with view
to enlarging the general membership.
Shortly thereafter, however, the
World War broke out and conditions
in Jewish communal life in America
became so unsettled that it was
deemed advisable to postpone the car
rying out of some Of these plans for
the charging of the committee. es-
peclally insofar as the representation
OF national Jewish organizations was
concerned. Following the Fifteenth
Annual meeting of the American Jew
lsh committee held last November, it
was deemed opportune to put the new
regulations into effect and a selection
was made of number of national
organizations who were invited to
elect representative to serve as mem
bers of the American Jewish commit
tee for term of one year or until
their successors are chosen.
The organizations which have al
ready responded to this Invitation and
the representatives chosen by them
are listed below:
American Jewish Historical Socie-
ty, A; S. W. Rosenbach; Council of
Jewish Women, Miss Rose Bremen,
Mrs. Henry Sternberger; Hadassah.

a woman looks far more chic in practi-

Another advantage of the presence of
sports clothes in the wardrobe is that
their design changes less from year to

and 1t Is therefore possible to buy but
one or two good things season which

PARIS, Dec. IL.
A LTHOUGH winter is now in full

The rush for the Riviera has set in, as
indicated by the fact that all places in
the trains are reserved for two weeks
In advance. and Saint Moritz is having
Its usual popularity for Christmas.
But the capital is not to be entirely
overlooked. The fashionable restau-
rants. and especially the midnight
dancing houses, are making their pro-
gram so attractive for Christmas week
that a good number will probably
change their minds at the last minute
and decide that Paris is not such a
bad place in midwinter after all.

Brogues or very plain slippers with

brown shades Is particularly adapted to
sports. since the similarity of the color
iiigs makes 1t possible to combin shades
ranging from yellow through dull red in
one costume.
Sports clothes to-day offer such
wonderful variety that every woman
will certainly be able to find a type
becoming to her, and even those who
stand on the side lines will find that
many occasions will arise during the
year when a smart sports costume is
absolutely essential A noteworthy fea-
ture is the persistence of the excellent
simplicity of the past few years, which
is being relinquished by the more formal

reason for this is that the success of
