"WHAT CONSTITUTES A
JEW?"

The idea of real Jew brings to my
mind particularly the contrast with the
jew who is born Jew but has never
in his life made choice of it. The
jew by birth is the montreal Jew, the
Jew by accident. There can be ques-
tions and no discussions about an ac-
cdent. But when you are making your
choice of Judaism you are entitled to
know what it is that you are expect
cd to do or to believe in order TO be a
Jew. To this l say, you must in the
first place recognize the Holy Script
ures as the foundali lion of goodly life.
If ycu find good teachings in the liter
atures. Jewish or non-Jewish, that be-
long outside of the Canon, as theology
calls it, you may and you must take
them. But remember these two points ::
The moral teachings outside of the
bible are as rule based on the bible
and draw their inspiration from it,
and secondly, all ideals have in some
way or other been placed before the
Jewish people in the course of its his
tory for approval or rejection. When
Israel has approved it he has incor-
porated it in his Law" when lie has
disapproved it, it was always for the
inefliciency or sometimes even the
harm that such supposedly moral
ideals contained. With this in view,
he who wants to be Il real Jew must
take Jewish history as the touchstonc
of the moral ideals of mankind And
let 1t not be surprising that people
of priests has clearer insight into
things spiritual than other nations Of
the world.
Actions speak louder than even the
illogical words. He who wants to be
real Jew must therefore comply with
all Biblical and Rabbinical laws as to
the relation between man and man.
The virtues of justice and love to
ncichbors, of fairness to the weaker Of
honesty in business. of truthfulncss. of
generosity. OF loyalty in its narrower
and wider applications are the start

iMATZOTHS FUND RECEIVES

FROM CHRISTIAN.

A beautiful response from one who
is neither by birth nor tradition aware
of the ceremonials of the Passover
holidays has been received by the Moas
Chiiim Fund for the Ukrainian Jews
and Jewish refugees in Central Europe
12S Delaney Street, n. Y. City. The
letter. which is written by an so year
old Christian, is too fine to be paraph-
razcd, and speaks for itself:
Mr.. j. l.. Horowitz, Treas, Moas
Chitim Fund Dear Sir:
Il have received your circular letter
appealing for aid for the martyred
Jews of the Ukraine, and / enclose my
mite for so worthy Il cause, and heart
lily wish my means We're such that l
could make it many times more.
Il am not Il Jew. but a Christian,
and n member of the Protestant Epis-
suppose you got my name from the
Year Book of the American Jewish
Publication Society, where ii is in the
roll of members. / was elected because
of my interest in Jewish literature, his
tory. traditions and life, both modern
and ancient, as I have for years col
lectcd. from time TO time, such books
on those subjects as my slender means
permit. l have some rare works in
Spanish and French. as well as English,
as I read those languages fluently, as
also other Romance tongues, as well
as Dutch and German.
Il have always had true and valued
Jewish friends all my life, in Virginia,
my native State. and in Texas and
Oklahoma also. l am now in my S0th
year. but quite active and vigorous,
having been temperate all my life, and
very regular in my daily habits. have
felt Il very deep sympathy for the Jews
of Europe and Asia. due to The bur
baritics of the wicked war that has
dciuged the world. one may say, with
blood and destroyed the work of Il
thousand years of industry of the vari-
Gus nations of Europe. ] have, from
the beginning, felt it n duty and II
privilege to aid those suffering Jews
of Austria, Poland and Jerusalem. each
year, as my means permitted, sending
direct to Rabbiners in the regions so
afflicted as well as to committees in
the East or in our State. l think no
cause should appeal 10 Christians for
help SO strongly as that of these chosen
people of Isrnel-God's Chosen People
who have suffered so bitterly and
cruelty IN Il war that they in no way
wcro responsible for.

any guarantees as to what the Al
mighty will do with you in the next
world, but / can guarantee this, that
no amount of Matzos on Passover and
no amount of fasting on Yom-KipiY'r,
and no amount of Kadish by your chill
dren, will cover up single dishonest
stock exchange deal. After you find
yourself good man, you must seek
to be IL godly man; you must idealize
yourself, give yourself to higher life,
seek culture, seek service, seek to bring
out noble feelings in yourself as those
who come in contact with you. Study
and worship and meditation and art
and pleasant family life based on
love and self-sacrifice, will create a
godly attitude in you. Further and
more detailed prescriptions how to be
godly are to be found in the ''old Re-
liable" in the Jewish ritual life. Next
to these and from the point of view
of nationalists, equal to these, is the
duty to help preserve Jewish existence.
The great task of an individual as Of
people is to live and not to die. In
this direction you must cooperate in
as many Jewish activities for self
preservation as your time and your
wealth will allow you. You must
think of brother Jews as brothers.
You must lend hand to the re-estab-
fishing of Israel in his national on his
. tn
go there yourself. unless you have n
peculiar usefulness which others have
not, but 1t does compel you to help
preserve Jewish national existence. 1t
calls on you to spread Jewish loyalty
among your fellow Jews, to teach it to
your children, and your neighbors'
children. 1t calls on you to preserve
Jewish institutions, such as the Jew
ish home and the Jewish house of wor-
ship, and the Jewish Sabbath and Jew
ish holidays, for in them we preserte
ourselves and keep alive our culture.
The Jew who believes he cannot ac-
complish these things by breaking with
the Jewish law, has the intentions of
real Jew, but is making n mistake.
a mistake proven to be n mistake by
history and everyday facts. and that
mistake makes him bit more useless
to the cause Of Judaism than dead
Jew. Of dead jew is also real
Jew, he is sometimes one) but as for
me. give me n live jew. He alone is
real.
