tened out on the front porch, to stand in
amazement at the sight they beheld.
Chief Longfeather marching with state
ly tread and bearing young pine tree the
branches of which were laden with many
shapeless bundles, entered the gate of the
little enclosure. Behind him his wife and
baby trailed as usual, but their faces bore
a smile of happiness, which the chief ex-
pressed in words as he stuck the sharply
pointed end of the tree into the soft earth
and, holding it up with one hand, waved
the other toward the family clustered be-
fore the porch.
"This Injun's tree. You come see" he
announced.
They came. Dumb with wonder they
stood while Chief Longfeather bade his
squaw strip the tree of its burdens. First
came bag of -four, which she gravely
handed to Mrs. Brown; then followed a
wild turkey neatly dressed for cooking and
a big firm ham that showed a brand
noted for its excellence. Chief Longfea-
ther had plainly purchased the ham in the
town to which he had taken his furs.
All these edibles she handed to the be-
wildered and delighted Mrs. Brown; then
the squaw removed a bundle and gave it
to Katherine-a bundle out of which stuck
plainly pair of moccasins of softest and
finest doeskin, beautifully fringed and en-
broidered with beads, the patient work of
many evenings beside their tepee fire.
"Missys moccasins," announced Running
Water, with grunt of content. "Missy's
feet no stick out now"
Then, with an air of benign dignity, as
OF king comforting an honor on favored
subject, the chief took with his own hands
the last package from the tree and handed
it to Mr. Brown. The puzzed minister
opened it and found two neatly wrapped
paper bags, plainly done up at a grocery.
One contained snowy white sugar. A
look of pure content crept blandly over
the minister's countenance when he opened
the other; it was filled with coffee.
"Now your hearts all glad," said Chief
Longteather. "Injun hear downriver big
boat no come-buy coffee to make his
white brothers heart glad-Aour, ham for
cook-kill turkey in 'Glades for white
squaw-make moccasins for Missy. Me-
my heart glad my squaw, her heart glad;
papoose too-all glad cause Injun love
um friends with the good hearts, give um
gifts for Christmas"
Then, without listening to the thanks
poured out by his "white friends with the
glad hearts," the chief and his family
silently departed
20 father, Tll never say again that In
Gians are not appreciative" declared
Katherine fervently. They qcere grateful,
and they certainly took the best time in the
world to show it!'
While the pleased white family prepared
their Christmas dinner of unexpected dain-
ties, Chief Longfeather, his wife and his
babe, in their own tepee, were respectively
trying on the shirt, wrapping up in the
red shawl and playing with the DOLL Their
eyes were bright, and their hearts were, in
deed, very happy.

A group of members are now working
on several travel essays, and an especial
effort is being made to incorporate color
and atmosphere of the various countries
chosen as subjects.
The idea was conceived in the active
brain of President r. ]. T. whose power
full personality is making itself felt, and
promises deal. of constructive thinking
for his colleagues
Several of the members have had the
good fortune, at some time or other, of
touring foreign countries; while other
members can pore over the voluminous
works on Travel contained in the Institu-
tion library as well as those of the Chau-
tauqua library; so it can be readily seen
that material and background are not
wanting. Let us have the papers, you
say? Very well.
AS the general routine of business was
touched upon lightly at the session last
Sunday there is not much to report that is,
as regards the reading of papers, etc. But,
perusal of the minutes may prove inter
esting:
President r. ]. T. opened the session by
formal declaration; asking for roll call
and reading of the minutes by the
Secretary. In asking for approval of the
minutes the President heard an objection
by Mr.. P. ]. B. that involves parliament
tary procedure. Mr.. P J. B. promises to
clarity his point in a paper to be read at
the next meeting. The minutes were then
approved by unanimous "Ayes." The
President then welcomed Mr.. r. L. NJ,
new member, who arose, and with few
well-chosen words with eloquent gestures
expressed his pleasure.
Distribution of books followed.
President R. ]. T. then relinquished the
Chair to Deputy Geo. J. Welsh, who pro-
ceeded to act as master of ceremonies for
the widely diversified program that made
up his splendid Victrola concert. 1t goes

lions lasts only few months; it
soon wears off and you must have
new sensations to replace them.
It is significant that the recent de-
mands of the Turks for restitution OF
lands that had been theirs, did not
include the demand for Syria,
Palestine, and the Hejaz. They have
given up all claim to these lands, so
the present crisis has no relation at
all to Palestine.

War Relief. I also contribute to the
War Relief because after all, the
starving and the suffering must be

For several centuries now, it seems
to have been race between pogrom
and relief; and relief and pogrom;:
Barely has a generation recovered
from the effects of one pogrom than
it is once more overtaken by other
and more serious pogroms. For that
reason, I can see very little hope for
improvements in the Ukraine. we
speak of constructive work, but can
YOU have constructive work on the

solution of the problem in the
Ukraine is to take the Jews, or at
least one million or several million
Jews out of Ukraine.
Even now, there is an exile going

Nowadays, exiles are not brought
about by edicts of expulsion. The

that-but they don't need edicts.
Nowadays, they have boycott, and
we read how in the midst of flour

ing. Man, IL not Cne almlgnIy factor,
is at least the mighty factor, in the
development of the land. 1t is the
people that makes the land and not
the land that makes the people. There
are some sections, in Russia, for in
stance, whose soil is rich and fertile,
but without the proper people to work
it, it is as good as waste. On the
other hand, take Great Britain, a
comparatively small island, it is not
self-sustaining, and must even i'm
port it's grain. And yet it is pow
erful nation, ruler of one-ffth the
world. Why? Because it is the peo-
pie that makes the land. What can
we not expect from Eretz Israel with
the Jews developing it?
AS I believe in the God of Israel,
so I believe in Israel.
The honor of the Jewish race is
perhaps more dear to me than the
life of the Jewish race.
In Palestine, there has been little
violence in which some brave Jews
have fallen. Yes, we have our mar
tyrs in Palestine, but they are not
merely martyrs-they are heroes who
gave their life to construct and up
build the land and future of their
people.
I believe that with the wisdom of
the Jewish genius and with Jewish
endurance and capacity to overcome
difficulties, we shall be able to over
come and outlive all sorts of Arab
prejudice.
We do not boast of our diplomacy,
as we are autodidact, or self-taught
diplomats. But we have won the
world by the truth and the justice of
our cause.
The Balfour Declaration was ad-
dressed to Lord Rothschild. 1t should
have been addressed to the Jewish
people, but how could the British
Government have addressed it to the
Jewish people? Should it have been
sent to the Jews of England? But

Where else could you have addressed
it for the Jewish people? But l hope
the time is not far distant when what
is intended for the Jewish people can

want to express my confidence in
the British government and in its in
tention to carry out the terms Of the
mandate for the Jewish National
Home in Palestine.
The Jewish National Home is now
a "fait accompli," an accomplished
fact. The Balfour Declaration ceased
being merely a Declaration, as soon
as the peace treaty of Versailles was
signed and San Reno offered the
mandate to Great Britain. On ac-
cepting the mandate, Great Britain
made the Jewish National Home an
accomplished thing just as surely as
the new states that were created as
result of the war are now an ac-
complished fact. The only thing that
remains is for the mandate to be
registered by the League of Nations
and to interpret it literally enough
to hasten the proper development OF
the National Home. AS soon as
sufficiently large number of Jews are
in Palestine and condition warrant it,
the National Home will be able to
gain it's independence. But whatever
the number of Jews in Palestine at
present, I cannot emphasize it too
strongly, the Jewish National Home
is already in existence, and no opposi-
ton, no intriguing will be able to call
back the establishment of the Ma
tional Home.
There has been friction and oppo-
sition on the part of some misguided
and misled Arabs. But there would
be no Arab riots and unrest were it
not for the state of uncertainty with
regard to the registration of the man.
date. Once let the League Of Ma
tons go through the formality OF
registering the mandate, and the OPP
position to the mandate will cease.
The League of Nations has been
waiting for the participation OF
America. If America had partici-
pated, the mandate would have been
registered long ago. But Americas
public approval of the Jewish Ma
tional Home, will be powerful in
centive in registering the mandate.
You should communicate with your
congressman and Senators, urging
them to have the American govern
ment to endorse the terms of the
mandate. That is one of the most
useful things the Jews in America
can do in regard to the Jewish Ma
tional Home.

be like Pharoah, giving nothing-de-
handing much-to whom the Israel
ties in Egypt complained "There is
no straw given unto thy servants, and
they say to us, make brick"
In Palestine, we will be safe
against massacres at least. Against
a nation you can make war-but no
massacres. If even a weak nation is
attacked, it can seek strength in al
liances like Belgium did, but a nation
living on it's land cannot be mas
sacred. We can be recognized as a
nation only in Palestine, but not in
the Golus' or lands of the Diaspora.
Our national language, Hebrew,
has always been cherished by us, but
it has become the national language
only in Palestine.
Think how much it will add in Jew,
ish self-respect, if in Palestine we
have a Jewish nation. Even now,
does it mean little to you, that in
Jerusalem, which is the center of all
religions, Jew is on Mt. Scopus and
is recognized as the governor Of Pal
estine?
American Jews, in addition to help
ing by supplying funds, and by arous-.
ing the public sentiment in favor OF
the registration and the favorable in
depreciation of the mandate, could
help by the contribution of experts.
Surely American Jewry has big men
of affairs experts in various lines,
men of the type of Hoover, who by
their big grasp of affairs and execu-
tive ability, could help in the building
up of Palestine and it's resources. The
question is how to bring them in. l
