ZANGWlLL EXPLAINS HIS
TERMARRIAGE
cJewish Telegraph Agency


Chicago The Chicago lsraelite
prints an Interesting interchange of
correspondence between Israel Iang-
will and Robert Lee StrauS relative Ia
Mr. Zangwil,s marriage toAa nont
JcweSS.
Mr.. Zangwll wrote rs follows:
although | think such queries as
Yours are somewhat out of order, yet
do not see the paradox To which you
refer. since my wife. who has the same

were not Christians. and was brought

Miral. in George Eliot's Daniel Der
onda.
Judaism is spiritual. hut You ap-
pear to make it racial. Have you for
On which Mr.. StrauS comments as
follows:'
"There is nothing in the five books
of Moses, or in the entire Bible OF,
tions the intermarriage of Jew and
non-Jew. Indeed, we find in Exodus
"a: l6 the specific injunction forbid
ding intermarriage of the sons of Is
rael with the daughters of other peo-
Piles. The law of Moses referred to by
Mr.. Zangwill is, therefore, quite
vague. He may perhaps allude to the
fact that Moses himself married out
side of his people. 1t will be remem
bered that his wife was the daughter
of Jethfo, the priest of INDIAN, wo-
man who today would be classed raci-
ally as mullatto. 1t must be consid-
cred, however, that at this time there
had been no dispensation of the law.
Hence, technically speaking, Moses
cannot be said to have intermarried. 1t
was not until much later that Jethro
and his family accepted Judaism. Mr..
ZangwilPs contention that his wife is
the daughter of non-Christian parents
begs the question and proves nothing
relative to the Jewishness of her fam
lily. A formal act of acceptance on
the part of the non-Jew is still the
basis for conversion to Judaism. To
take classic example, Ruth, the
Moabtish woman, becomes a Jewess
by espousing the people and the God
of Israel But Mrs. Zangwill has
never formally accepted Judaism. In
fact, Mr.. Zangwill has himself re-
quested her not to do so. One, there
fore, fails to apprehend how Mrs.
Zangwill can by any manner of means
be considered Jewish.
The great English writer is a man
of paradoxes. He not only speaks and
writes them; he also lives them.
Nevertheless, there is no denying the
fact that he is vital genius, and by
this very admission we must allow
him breathing space beyond the con-
vention and the laws of our everyday
world. Genius, after all, is probably
a law unto itself"

MATDUNHAM OF GLACIER
SCOUT FOR CUSTER

Mat Durham, 1.-THE old man OF
the mountains" IL years old, Is
the picturesque night Waterman OF
the Glacier Park mammoth log
hotel which stands in the shadows
of the Rocky mountains. He was
born in northeastern Indiana and
went west a young man, serving
- years as a United States govern
ment scout. He was attached 10
General Clusters army. During
the battle of the Little Big Horn,
i'm which Custer was killed, Scout
Durham was on detached duty 80
miles away, scouting on Tongue
river in an endeavor to locate the
main body of Sioux.
Durham is a typical hermit,
living in a log cabin in the forest
near the hotel the year round. In
the summer months he breaks the
monotony of his winters loneliness
by confabbing with the tourists.
He has been in the Rocky noun
taiHs since 1872 and has many STIR
ring tales of adventures with the
Indians and wild animal life of
the region. His cabin is a verit-
able curiosity shop and is the GEN.
ter of great interest to the tourists.
Durham has had a kodak ever
since the '1ittle picture taking
boxes arrived on the frontier and
he develops his own prints. 1t is
estimated he has 5000 interesting
western snapshots slowed away in
piles in his cabin.

YOGO SAPPHIRE MINES HAVE
PRODUCED MANY MILLIONS

The retail value of s~apphires al
ready taken from the Yogo sapphire
mines in the Little Belt mountains
is estimated at between $8,000,00O
and 100000 900
Montana, of course, does not re-
ceive the full value of these gems
for the mines are operated by an
English syndicate and the rough
stones r exported to London, from
which point most of them are sent
to France and Switzerland, where
they + cut and polished. The
smaller crystals not suitable for
gems are made into bearings for
watches and other delicate instru-
ments. Thus much value of the fin
ished stones, which command a high
price in all of the foreign capitals as
well as in America, is to be found
in the cost of the labor and excise
duties collected as the finished pro-
duct is shipped from n country to
another.
The Yogo sapphire, as the Montana
product is known, is considered the
finest sapphire in the world.
Fashion experts in the east have
been attracted by the quality of the
Montana moss agate, and already
buyers r being sent to the state
to obtain supplies for the manufac-
turing jewelers. in the east.

Jordan Country Farmers Prosper


Diversified farming is the kind
that pays, and the farmers of Gar
field county have been very success
full in this direction, is the statement
of State Senator w. C. Henderson of
Jordan. Conditions are favorable
for a large crop production, says Mr..
Henderson and a large acreage is
planted and in process of planting
which includes wheat, corn and flax,
with a less acreage in wheat than
formerly and a corresponding in
crease in corn and flax acreage.
AS an indication of these facts,
Mr.. Henderson says that the bank
deposits of Jordan are larger at the
present time than they have been at
any time during the past three years
which he considers as a wholesome
barometer of general conditions.
Corn and cattle is accepted as a slo-
gan, and with this combination he
feels that the agriculturist in this
region is bound to win.

MAN WHO BECAME
FAMOUS

Doctor r. v. Pierce, whose picture
appears above, vas not only a success
full physician but also a profound
student of the medicinal qualities of
Natures remedies, roots and herbs, and
by close observation of the methods
used by the Indians, he discovered their
great remedial qualities, especially for
weaknesses of women, and after care
full preparation succeeded in giving to
the world a remedy which has been
used by women with the best results
for half a century. DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription is still in great demand,
while many other SO called ~vcure-alls"
have come and gone. The reason for
it's phenomenal success is because of its
absolute purity, and DR.. Pierce's high

Brief Nature Studies
H ;. OTIS SWIFT

In rich woods from Maine to North Caro. lima and Kansas, where last years dead brown leaves lie matted over, stone heaps and hummocks clothed with the Epotted leaves of lawn lilies, one sees here and there a little upward lifting of the carpet. Some thing that looks like green ear. the sharp cooked ear of an inquisitiye puppy is poked above the ground. It is the halffolded. deep green veiny ,leaf softly woolly, of wild gin ger Asarum canadense, poked up by the snaky roots to listen.
 If there comes on the night wihdsno tink- ling of the icy footsteps of retreating Jack Frost, the heart-shaped leaves shake off the wood loam and stand on long hairy stems Then with surprising swiftness comes the flower, the most curious, bell-hke. timid blossom of the woodland, its three divisions pointed and purple or brOwniah, hidden just above the soil at the foot of the leaf stalk.
 When fairy fays along the messy brooks invite the wood gnomes of the rock heaps to the dance of the Spring Floralia, tis said, the little old men attend, wearing these odd wild ginger blossoms as hats.

p11RIIC TREE PLANTING

Carrying the public forest service stlli fur fher in it's benefits, one of the largest oouCh- srn cities maintains a city nursery for sup ujyine trees along the residential streets This is wholly a public enterprise; no trees sre sold for planting within private prem ises, The nursery is operated at public ,ex- Iefse Two experienced foresters are em- ployed. When residential streets are opened the city selects the character of trees which are suitable, and plants them at proper m. teryaIs along the p9rking spaces. Thus the streets are beautified under uniformity .of selection and planting, and results are mark edly satisfactory for many years. s.
 Such plan appears suited to Birmingham where extensions of the residential distrlcts are constantly being made by frequent open inas of subdivisions. As a rule, when the paving and other Improvements are com I5leted; streets and parking spaces are gded- rated as city property. Thus opportunity ss offered to foster the city beautiful plan, and to make Birmingham more attractive to residents as well as to visitors and prOspec- tors . '.e
 The cost of this system is small. There is no reason why it should not be paid by fhe public since the streets and parking spaces between property lines and curbings are of public ownership and use. Under such an arrangement, instead of the residential streets presenting a ragged appearance with varieties of trees frequently unsuited to the purpose, and no system inN selection of trees and planting spaces, there would be symmetry, more attractive setting and other benefits from more care and taste in the choice of varieties
