(aside from the Hebrew any great
literary work has been produced. Of
all the languages used by our people
in their long history, it is the only
one called Yiddish.
Has Fine Opinion of provinces"
Asked what he thought of the
Provinces" the communities through
out the country, far from provincial
New York, Mr.. Pinski expressed him
self as being highly impressed by the
land. He spoke of the keen interest
they take in all Jewish questions, of
the generous response. But the
provinces" more than merely pro-
vide funds. They give us inspiration
and incentive.
Artist Cannot Shun Public Activity
"Do you think the Artist can or
should take an active part in the life
and problems of his people?" Pinski
was asked by his interviewer, with
special reference to his activity as
leader in Jewish Life and latterly, as
editor of Yiddish Daily. "The true
artist cannot dissociate himself from
the Life of his people. It is Life
which is the inspiration of literature.
Besides, Jewish Life is so tense that
an artist with a soul cannot be in
different to the problems of his peo-
pie. AS far as my connection with
Die Zeit is concerned, it acted as a
stimulus rather than as a deterrent.
For instance, King Solomon and His
Wives the series of one thousand
short stories, which when completed
should occupy about ten volumes, was
direct outcome of my connection
with Die Zeit. Possibly I could have
written a play or two, had I not been
taken with the newspaper, but [ con-
slider my work as publicist no less
important than the plays might have
BEEN"
More Plays in View
Asked whether he had more plays
in reserve, Pinski replied: "In 1900
I conceived series of twelve dramas
far, only two have been written, The
Eternal Jew and the Last Jew I
have those plays yet to write and
naturally from time to time, other
topics present themselves. But there
is always work for the dramatist to
do"
began WrlClng at Sixteen
David Pinski began his literary
career in Russia, thirty-four years
ago when he was only sixteen years
old. Having had a classical educa-
ton his first writings were not in
Yiddish, as he hardly felt at home in
that idiom. But there really was no
Yiddish literature then, in the pres
ent sense Of the term. When he tried
to depict the Jewish types with whom
he came into contact he felt almost
as if he were translating them into
some other language when he wrote
of them in Yiddish. But believing
that the soil in which the Jewish
masses were to be rooted was to be
the Yiddish, he set to work, and emil
nent critics say, in the development
of Yiddish as literary medium Pin
ski played very important part.
But far more important than the Ian
guage in which the dramatist writes
is the fact that he has depicted Jew
ish types and Jewish life in master
full way. That is why he is so wide
ly translated. To the interviewer it
seemed almost like a paradox that

A. J. C. "HAPPY DAY" AND
MEMORIAL FUNDS
AND


interest story in the Associated Jew
ish Charities two funds of sentiment
the Happy Day Fund and the Me-
neapolis idea. Some years ago Miss
Florence Simon conceived the happy
thought of sending contribution to
mark the birthday of friend or rela-
tive. The custom has appealed to
many generously inclined members.
The Memorial Fund is universally ap-
preciated; in some of the larger cities
thousands of dollars are received an
nually in memory of individuals de-
parted.
In 1921 in Minneapolis the members
Of four families participated conspicu-
ously in the Happy Day Fund. 1t
seemed to have an especial appeal in
the matter of confirmation compli-
ment.
The same year twenty-one people
had the giver's thought in memory of
a beloved woman. DR.. S. N. Deinard,
naturally, was memorialized to the
greatest extent by members of the
organization so close to his heart, no
less than forty odd contributions being
made in his name. Some of these
represented family and institutional
contributions, including social clubs,
philanthropic societies and Sabbath
schools. Some of these came from a
distance Gust as some local donors
honor the deceased of distant resi-
dence). One particular name has ap-
peared as many as eleven times in
year on the list of donors:

Smokers and users of matches

five years, 1915-1919 inclusive. &C

Lutz. who today started a special
campaign against the careless tobac-
co smokers Of this city
I'VE are not criticising the habit
of smoking said Chief Ilutz "but we
do censure the careless persons who
thoughtlessly cast a lighted cigar

kets. rubbish piles or other places
where combustible material is pres

considering that the American
public consumes over 7,271. 900, 0O0
cigars, more than 32.456, 900, 600
cigarettes yearly and 7,0O0,0O0,000
matches daily. it is not surprising
that we have so many fires from this
hazard. The mileage OF the Gig
arettes used in the course OF year
would stretch n distance almost five
times the length Of Americas steam
railway. This large consumption
does not excuse the loss. however,
but makes it evident that stringent
precautions are necessary.
unfortunately" continued the
chief. there IS a considerable loss
OF life by burning because of reck-
less employees IN factories and other
places Of business who snatch a
smoke when the foreman Is not look
ing. II discovery is threatened,
the smoker is likely to get rid OF his
cigarette. cigar or pipe as rapidly as
possible. with little thought as TO
where It may land.
There have been numerous cases
where fires have started in this way.
In one New York Shirt waist fac
tory an operative threw a lighted
cigarette stub into cotton scraps on
the floor, and as a result OF his
thoughtlessness, 145 girls lost their
lives in the fire and panic that fol-
lowed.
1--WE have had a number Of serious
fires from this hazard in our own
city, notably that which occurred at
7.55 p. NJ, March 25, at 241 Tatnall
St., caused by man smoking a cigar
in bed. In fact smokers are respon-
sible for a greater portion OF our fire
losses than any other agency. except
improperly used electricity and
electrical appliances.
1T Is an obvious truth that the
American public is constitutionally
careless and prone to take a chance.
That is the reason we have such a
heavy fire loss as compared with
European countries.

EDMONTON, Alberta. Sept. as
Surveyors are mapping the Mac
Kenzie river district In northwest
Canada by radio.
Equipped with small radio receiv-
ing sets, the men penetrate into the
UNEMPLOYED regions of this territory
and ascertain their exact locations
by the use OF these instruments. The
radio set has been found to increase
the efficiency of their work.
In mapping out the surrounding
lands. surveyors have been depend
ing upon calculations from the diff
ferences In local and standard
vations OF the stars with his survey
ing instruments the map maker Is
able to calculate his local time. This
he would compare with Greenwich
or some other standard time so as TO
derive from this his exact geo
graphical position.
Where telegraph was available.
the surveyors would get his standard
time by wire from the nearest large
city. From this difference in time
he would calculate his distance from
the known point. But I'm cases
where the men have had no means
OF communication they have taken
along high-grade watches or
chronometers keeping Greenwich
time.
After a long, hard trip. even the
chronometers would err for the diff
ference of about a minute from the
exact time. A minutes difference
meant an error OF several miles in
their calculations.
That Is why radio Is being de-
pended on now for a more accurate
survey OF this district. It has been
found TO assure a more accurate To-
cation OF the surveyors position
than any method used heretofore.
BY the radio method a surveyor
first ascertains his local time. Then
he sets up his receiving set and
tunes in on some broadcasting sta
ton from which he can receive the
government time signals.
Knowing the location OF the broad
casting station. the map maker cal
culates the difference in time be-

Alarm Replaces SOS Calls.
No longer will radio operators
aboard sea-going vessels have TO sit
up all night on the watch for any
distress calls from other ships. An
automatic radio receiving device has
been designed TO take their places.
This device Is meant for attach
ment TO the receiving part OF ships
radio equipment. II replaces the
famous COD and SOS calls.
Instead OF these letters, the code
for distress will be four dashes OF
one second each. repeated three
times at regular intervals. When
these dashes are received by a ship
equipped with the automatic de-
vice they are amplihed and sent
through an electrically operated
mechanism which rings a bell in the
circuit.
With this device switched on. the
radio operator may go of duty. Any
distress signal during the night
would ring the alarm.
