DIR, SAMUEL SCHULMAN is
MADE RABBI FOR LIFE

Rev. DR.. Samuel Schulman, who
will complete his twenty-fifth anniver-
sary of service as spiritual leader of
Temple Bth-El of New York on Sun
day, Jan. 6, was elected rabbi for life
by the congregation as token of his
services.
This action was taken at a recent
meeting of the members of the congre-
cation, at which Ben Altheimer, presi-
dent, presided.
Dir. Schulman is believed to be the
only rabbi in America who has been
awarded in this manner, although sew
eral have been made Rabbi Emeretus
with their salaries continued for life.
A document setting forth the facts
will be presented to him on silver jubi-
lee.
DIR. Schulman is president of the
Association of the Reform Rabbi of
Greater New York. He is u member
of the board of editors of the English
translation of the Bible. He is ,also,
head of committee under which the
New York Hebrew Union College
School for Teachers is administered
and is a member of the publication
committee of the Jewish Publication
Society and director of the Y. M. Ii.
A. of Manhattan.
In the last half century Temple

subsidiaries, the profits aecruing from
it revert back to the parent body. So
you see, from both patriotic and prac-
tical angles, the Judea Insurance
company is an extremely valuable en-
terprise.
"Its value can be better seen from
the fact that since the company was
chartered many other organizations
have applied in Palestine for a sianilar
charter. They have been all refused
by the government. Not only that,
but we have sound reason to believe
that negotiations will soon be produc-
tive of the transfer of all the business
done at present by branches of Eng
lish Insurance companies in Palestine,
to the Judea Insurance company. This
is because the latter organization, by
virtue Of its native appeal, is in a posi-
ton to dominate the insurance field in
Palestine.
eve expect that many American
Zionists, and Jews not affiliated with
the Zionist organization, will feel both
patriotic and practical enough to con-
slider the wisdom of taking out pol
| icy in the Judea Insurance company,
even though they live here. 1t is
every bit as protected as advantage
GUS, as cheap as the policies of other
insurance companies and, j believe,
just as convenient as, say, taking out
a policy issued by a company in Eng
land or Ireland.
~ have just had remarkable ex-
ample of the interest which / expect
the Judea Insurance company will stir
up in American Jewry. Recently, /
addressed a meeting of the Atneuland
Camp of the Order Sons of Zion, held
at the McAlpine Hotel, in New York
City. There were 170 members of the
camp present-and every one of them
subscribed to share in the Judea In
surance company. Besides being mem
ibers of the order and Zionists, these
men are, also, rather keen business
men who look twice before signing
away dollar. And that these men
SO readily took shares shows the stat
US of the company"
i Judge Strahl had spoken of the Ju-
dea Insurance company with such en-
thusiasm and aggressive optimism
\ that could not forbear to ask him
what had inspired such whole-hearted
zeal.
"Whsn I was at the Carlsbad Zion
ist conference" the judge answered,

ed opinion of world leaders of Zion

plenty, eminating from Europe. But
the hard, practical, business methods
which are so necessary to eountry's
development, could only come from
America. In the Judea Insurance

plans which those who lead in the
work of reclaiming Palestine for the

pletc new bath house, which lacks
nothing in equipment. Individua
bath rooms, all finished in white
enamel, occupy both the women =
and men s sides, with upstairs sun
rooms where real sun baths and re-
taxation may be enjoyed afterward.
DR.. Tell j! Berggren, well known
throughout Southern California aS
a physio- specialist, is in
charge of the treatment rooms IN
connection with the baths. Corrcc-
tive treatments Of the spine, Swedish
massage, dietetic courses and many
other methods of treatment that
insure speedy return to nOrmalcy
are given under his supervision. DIR.
Berggrcn, who has written several
well known books on corrective
methods, has been engaged il his
chosen profession for over 80 years,
introducing the Swedish system in
to the Battle Creek Sanitarium q
years ago. He is q regular medical
graduate, having taken his degrees
at the University of Illinois. He is
q captain in the United States army,
having served overseas during the
World War.
There will also be a beauty par
lOr installed in the bath house for
the convenience of women patrons
with Mrs. Chance of San Diego in
charge.
Other improvements, new this
season, at the resort include open
air promcnades on the dancing ca
sino, repaintig of some 80 or more
cottages and the addition of screen
porchcs, complete sewer system
costing several thousand dollars,
and q greatly enlarged garage with
the genial and we'll known Ray
Foble still in charge.
AS a natural result of the many
improvements going in at Jacumba,
there is much activity in lot buying
and building. During the month of
May % lots were sold, mostly all

Mr.. Vaughn, and nothing was spar

springs and splendid mattresses, the
latter manufactured expressly for

/ Perhaps the most interesting an
nouncement yet made in regard to
Jacumba is that the contract has
been let for excavating and compile
-tion of n beautiful lake. This large
body of water will be directly be-
hind, the apartment house and when
completed will cover an area of
segen acres, according to Vaughn.
There is d natural dip in this par
