PASSING OF GREAT
 JEWISH LEADER

xI5u.,t In the tnet dsath ho,,, of Rabbi Joseph rael, Philadelphia. American Jewry lost one of it's most gifted and in fluential leaders. pr. Krauskopf be- gan his career in the rabbinate in Kansas City in 1883. His reforms in the congregation and in the ritual, together with his strong sermons in English, soon attracted nation- wide attention. He was the founder of the national farm school, which was based on the original suggestion by Tolstoi for an institution to take boys from the congested cities back to the soil. Returning from a visit to Tolstoi with the fervent convic- tion that in the Americanization pro- cess no factor was so vital as a schooling in agriculture Dr. Kraus- kopf gave himself to the task of working out practical plan for the establishment of the farm school Dr. Krauskopf did not limit the circle of his friends to those of his own creed. His Christian affiliations were steadfast and many. He numbered among his friends leading national figures such as William H. Taft John Wannamaker, Edward Bok Herbert Hoover, Dr. Russell Con- well And Cardinal Gibbons. During his last illness, prayers for his re- covery were said in all Catholic churches in Philadelphia.

 ORDER OF DEMOLAy
Boys Fraternity Declared One Of Nations Real
 Assets

KANSAS CITY. June S0.-Official word has just reached the grand council offices or the Order of De- Molay for Boys that the imperial Shrine council, while in session at Washington. unanimously adopted the following resolution indorsing the order:
 Whereas, the Order of DeMolay for Boys composed of Master Masons' sons, their chums and other young me- between the ages of 16 and 21, which is organized for the purpose of the inoculation and practice of clean thinking, clean speaking and clean living among its members; and
 Whereas, the Members of the Or der of DeMolay are consecrated to preservation of the threefold boon of izenship-religious liberty, symbol ized by the flag of our country. and intellectual liberty, symbolized by the school books of the American boy and girl; and
 Whereas, we believe this work of the Order of DeMolay should be en- couraged and supported; therefore be 1t
 Resolved, that the Imperial council Ancient and Accepted Order Nobles of the Mystic Shrine does hereby in dorse the principles of the Order of DeMolay; and be it further
 ReSolVed, that the members or the Ancient and Accepted Order Mobiles or the Mystic Shrine are urged to lend their moral and personal sup port to chapters of the Order of De- Molay now organized in their city or community, or that may hereafter be organized.
 The Order of DeMolay was started four years ago as a boys club of nine members, fostered by Frank S. Land in Kansas City, Mo, and within a short space of time 1t has grown to nine hundred and eighty-one chap ters with over one hundred thousand members.
 DeMolay is now in practically ev- cry state in the union, Canada, Phil ippine Islands, Porto Rico and chap ters have been recently installed in Rome and Milan, Italy. Judge Alex ander G. Cochrane, grand master councillor of the order, is now in Flu rope introducing the movement. The organization seeks to make better boys, better men and better citizens. It is rendering real service in the community life by insisting on a practical application of the ideals ex- emplified in the degrees.

NEW YORK IS A
 RELIGIUOS CITY

On account of magazine articles and the impression gained by the oc- casional visitor to New York, the city has been regarded by many as a kind of religious cemetery" where church activities and influences have been reduced to the minimum. The charge is beginning to draw the re- sentiment of the religious leaders of New York. Dr. Harlan G. Menden- hall, stated clerk of the Presbytery of New York, has recently published statistics concerning the church life of that city. It is pointed out that at present 81 religious organizations are at work, and that these are housed in 1860 places of worship. The Protestants have 1,941,S47 mem bers the Catholics 1,94S,730, and the Jews 1,64O.000. Dr. Mendenhall says: "The church membership of the United States is about one-third of the population; In the city of New York the proportion is greater than in the country at large, while in Manhattan the membership holds the same proportion to the population as is found In the country outside New York. When these figures are boiled down to a percentage basis we find that while New York increased In population 17 per cent in ten years, in the same period the Presbyterian church increased 26 per cent; the Congr regational church 19 per cent, etc."

PRESBYTERIANS ARE GUESTS
 OF INDIANAPOLIS CATHOLICS

During the recent meeting of the general assembly in Indianapolis, prominent Presbyterians were guests of the Knights of Columbus Lunch con club. Covers were laid for 125 members and guests. Madison Walsh, prominent Indianapolis law yer, in his address of welcome de- clared that the occasion was born of the spirit of tolerance which alone could survive In America, and that the security of America was depen- dent upon the service of those who consecrated themselves to the task of bringing American men and wom- en closer together in more tolerant and a more devoted service to God and to America. pr. M. l.. Haines, pastor emeritus of First Presbyterian church, Indianapolis, was introduced by Mir. Walsh, who said that Dr.
 Haines had come to be loved by all the people of the city, regardless of creed. Other speakers were Dr. John McDowell of New York, Dr. Hugh T.
 Kerr of Pittsburg, and pr. George B.
 Stewart of Auburn, N. Y. All of the speakers placed emphasis on the fact that religious differences were nc longer bar to Christian fellow ship and pleasant social relations.
