ELYIN BERG DEAD

A keen grit comes to Mr.. and Mrs.
Carl Berg of Pleasant Ridge in the
sudden passing of their young son..
Elvin, twelve years of age. The lad,
was not feeling well on Sunday, and
was taken to Lacrosse Monday. 1t
was found that he was suffering from
internal hemmorrhage, and in spite of
all that medical science could do he
passed away Wednesday morning.
Funeral will probably be held in the
Main Street Lutheran church next
Sunday. The sympathy of the entire
community goes out to the stricken
family in their loss.

days of his time to house to house

All Normal Alumni, ex-stud

description realize that the time
has come when We must all help
our home college into better
position in state athletics. The
games with Louisiana Tech and
Centenary show what Normal
could do if she had 300 instead Of
100 men out of won to build a
football team. Normal has the
coach, but she lacks the men,
wat Norma! boosters should do
is to help build up the attendance
OF men. No better way has been
found or suggested than that of
increasing the Alumni Loan Fund.
Many of TIE hest athletes in LOU
isiana high schools would attend
Normal If they could get financial
aid in the way of loans from the

TON

The Board of the Jewish Shell
tering Home for Children, has
elected Messrs. Albert H. Heller
and Leonard H. Heller, of the
Metropolitan Milk Company, hon
orary members for life, of the
Home.
This was the Boards graceful
acknowledgment of the gener-
osity of these gentlemen who for
almost two years have been sup
plying free, the entire daily milk
supply for the home. There are,
no doubt, many. other institutions
in the city that have been shar-
ing in the bounty of these milk
magnates," but none so largely
as the Jewish Sheltering Home
for Children.
Donations in money or kind are
always appreciated by public in
stitutions, but there is something
alluring about the idea that ones
contribution represents. not mere
ly tightening of the financial
burden of the officers, but goes
to build up the physique and
health of the little wards of the
Home. T Ia consciousness
should be as pleasing to the He'll
ers as their election to honorary
life membership, which, neverthe-
less, does not detract from the
gracefulness of the appreciation

that he had done it? This is just
what has happened to us. A fort

in having served all her life the
great and proud French people
and not the weak and prosecuted
Jewish people to whom she be-

plight when in answer to our ca

statement on the subject, we re-

from the Divine Sarah:

In Our editorial we said that the
height of tragedy is reached when

mistaken. There is a greater ira

Now that the Holy Days and
the Holidays are over, and the
community through its institu-
tions and organizations, is settled
down to another year of activity,
it is high time that the members
of the Zionist District prepare
to assume the burdens of the i'm
portant work that lies before
them. We can imagine no ex-
cuse for Zionist inactivity at this
time. Even the war clouds that
threatened the near East horizon
are now dispelled, and the call
of the hour is for earnest, inten-
sive Zionist work along every pos
sible line.

THE NEAR EAST CRISIS
AND ZIONISM

We do not pretend to be ex-
perts on politics or international
relations, so we do not undertake
to say exactly what effect the
British-Turkish crises will have
upon Our aspirations in Palestine.
It is noteworthy that in none of
the dispatches about the belliger-
ency of the Turks are the Man
date lands mentioned. Even
Mesopotamia was mentioned only
incidentally as country through
which the Turks might march in
order to gain their objective. But
to Palestine there has been no
reference at all.
And yet it is no exaggeration
to say that already the Jewish
Palestine has been benefited by
the situation in the Near East.
If nothing else, it opened the
eyes of the world to the danger

the opponents of Zion, and it
