Discusses the Jewish Question

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 I have been asked for my opinion on the Jewish question and the following is my re- ply, which l thought would be of interest to your readers:
 I believe that the position of the Jews in America will gradually improve. The lndi- yidual Jew can in my opinion help greatly in this direction by leading a good life, by cooperating in the improvement Of all the worldwide things, such as music, art ana the like, by helping those who cannot help themselves, by alleviating suffering and doing away with poverty as much as posslnie' Oy contributing to the general improvement ana welfare and helping in every way to bring about better conditions, and by setting good example, so that it will be regarded as privilege to be Jew. The Jews have con centrated on a beautiful religion and family life, but having been oppressed Tn most coun- tries they have been more or less lsolated' which was the desire of the orthodox Jew Their average superior intelligence is not questioned by anyone who has studied the matter. It was the desire particularly Of the orthodox Jew to be separated from the general public and only through modern Judaism has it become possible for the Jews to adjust themselves in the nations where thye lived, instead of keeping themselves sep \ the Jews should adopt the customs and habits of the countries where they live and obey the laws of the land. The Jews in America should become good Americans in every re- spect. An excerpt from the preface of one of Disraeli's works-"Coningsby," reads as follows:
 Modern Jews had long laboured under
 the odium and stigma of MediaevaI
 history was unknown, the passions of so-
 'cieties, undisturbed by traditional experi~
 ence, were strong, and their convictions,
 unmitigated by criticism, were necessarily
 fanatical. The Jews were looked upon in
 the Middle Ages as an accursed race, the
 enemies of God and man, the especial
 foes of Christianity. No one in those
 days paused to reflect that Christianity
 was founded by the Jews; that its Di-
 vine Author in his human capacity, was
 the descendant of King David; that his
 dictrines avowedly were the completion,
 not the change, of Judaism; that the Apostles and the Evangelists, whose
 names men daily invoked, and whose vol
 tunes they embraced with reverence,
 were all Jews that the infallible throne
 of Rome itself was established by
 Jew and that a Jew was the founder
 of, the Christian churches of Asia.

Bow Scouts Demonstrate
Worth of Preparedness

Boston, Mass.-A group Of boys
unable to help their injured comrade,
and a party of boy scouts that ar
rived to administer first aid were par
ticapators in a recent demonstration Of
scout preparedness for emergency.
James West, of this city, while out
for a day in the woods with some COM
panions, was accidentally shot in the
leg. The wound bled profusely while
his frightened companions stood help
less, not knowing what to do.
At this moment Scouts Francis
Adams, Hoyt Larson and Tom Bar
nard out on a hike. appeared on the
scene. Scout Adams took charge Of
the situation and sent his chums for
help. He fashioned tourniquet from
his neckerchief and stopped the flow
of blood. Cutting saplings he i'm
provised stretcher and with the as
sistance Of the other boys started for
home with the wounded lad.
They had gone only mile when
they met the boys father, who had been
notified of the accident by the two
scouts and was hurrying to the scene
in an automobile. He took his son to
the hospital.
The scouts were only twelve years
of age, but scout training had pre-
pared them for the emergency.

Local Team Wins
From Law School 9

Reinforced by good batting and it's
attendant yield of runs, Mike Hozier's
pitching held the Fordham Law
School nine at bay so consistently
Sunday afternoon at Fletchers Field
that the Grantwood A. c. added one
more to their long string of victories.
The final score, 3-2, does not nearly
indicate the rivalry and vim with
which the two teams battled and
fielded.
The victors put up a brand of ball
which was nothing short of sensa-
tional. Although wild at times, Ho-
zier yielded but five measly bingles to
the hard hitting visitors. The swift
and spectacular catches by Moran ri
vailed those of the big league star
gardeners. The longest hit of the day,
and perhaps ever at Joe Simon's ball
park, was the home run which Borelli
shook out of his long pole in his ini-
tial turn at bat. 1t not only cleared
the scoreboard in deep left center, but
also sailed over the two large willow
trees. A Ruthanian clout, as mick"
ball was picked up in the field.
The college boys must have their
share of commentator, for it was
their display of natural baseball abili-
ty which made it tight contest. AL
though their fielding was little off
color, it flashed enough to draw the
applause of the crowd.
Grantwood scored in the opener
when Siborsky singled and rode home
on Borelli's four base poke.
Single tallies in the second and
seventh innings enabled the col
legians to tie the score, but not for
long.
With one out in the eighth Borelli
walked. Gerald Certify singled to
right, Borelli taking third on the blow
He scored moment later on a per-
feet sacrifice bunt by Joe Certify.

Jackie Coogan
Likes Old Clothes

One of the reasons Jackie Coogan
likes to act in front of the movie cam
era is the fact that he can wear the
disreputable costume which has made
his little figure a famous one to mil
lions of motion picture theatre-goers.
He loves the ragged sweater, the torn
cap and the baggy overalls, and he is
never so happy as when he is wearing
them.
When he returns after his days
work in the studio his real trouble be-
gins, for his parents insist that he
'dress up in clothes in which he can
not roll around on the ground with
out fracturing some of the rules laid
down by his father and mother.
One of Jackie's pictures for First
National release, "My Boy" will be
presented by Sol Lesser at the Grant
Lee Theatre tomorrow and Sunday.
