A PROJECT DESERVING OF SUPPORT.

TTHE opening Monday night of the Jewish Com
a munity Bazaar in the Auditorium should be not
merely an event Of social entertaining character
but should enlist the whole-hearted attention
and cooperation Of every wide-awake citizen.
This bazaar distinguished from others OF similar
nature held heretofore in that represents the aspra
tons and ambitions of a segment of the citizenship Of
Wilmington rather than lodge. order, or re-
iigous body.
Its aim is better citizenship; its object the erection
of Jewish Community Center designed to reflect not
only the ideas but ideals held by Jewish people.
The phrase ITO make Wilmington better place in
which to live" though rite highly expressive Of
its object.
President Harding has given the bazaar and COM
munity hall project his eommendation. United states
Senator dupont has made a donation the cause
has expressed his purpose coming from washington
to participate in the opening festivities Mayor Harvey
likewise has approved the plan and now the Gentle
ministry Of the city has taken up with breadth OF
thought and unanimty of purpose that foreshadows
= its entire success.
L Every every woman and every child who can
do So should make It his her duty to attend the
bazaar some time during the coming week AS an ex-
position of Wilmington commercially it will prove an
education.
The Jewish community is deserving of hearty sup
port in its desire advance the interests Of the whole

termyer attacks the Department Of

the courts with deliberately pro-

seems to be that the department,
because proof was lacking or for
other reasons, has not indicted and

shame on honest union men.
Whr should decent organizations
permit band of scoundrels to march

OF course there are instances
where a union. or at least a majority
of its members. may be as shame
less as the criminal at its head.
Brindell was not repudiated by his
union when he was sent 10 prison
for grating. His union stands by
him and cheers him and is willing to
let the public think that all unions
like Brindells. Fortunately that is
not so. Unfortunately. however,
even the honest unions are too hes

mitted in the name of organized

They are very very blase, these

This Is not so simple as II would

very few good restaurants. Besides

spacious dancing floor, surrounded
by many tables covered with white
