sort of daze after a Furnishing fight.
Jaxon had all the symptoms. He
was sane enough, but a beaten ana
bewildered man.
Just then a. detective came in,
headquarters man, and with him was
the banks own. Investigator. They
both confirmed what Jaxon had said
about the other banks, and both the
detectives were as bewildered as poor
Jaxon. They could make neither head
nor tail of the affair." and when they
had both finished, the man from head
quarters could only sit. and shake
mis- head, letting out staccato laughs
and curses.
I was beginning to imagine I was
still In bed and dreaming 1t all. and
! could see that the old man, for all
his poker face, was getting the same
feeling. He got up quickly from his
chair and started off to look round
the building.
1t was plain that entrance had
been made into the bank through one
of the windows next to the main door.
A section big enough to pass full
size man had been lifted clean out
of 1t, and the steel astragals round
the panes had been cut through as
IL they had been strips of cheese.
did not need the detectives to tell
me that the cutting had been done
by powerful oxyacetylene. I could see
that plainly enough when I examined
the edges of the removed section,
which had been neatly set against the
wall on the sidewalk.
Jaxon led the way to the door of
the great vault. When the president
saw what had been done to this elab-
crate piece of mechanism he grunted
as If somebody had hit him.
There was neat aperture cut in
the central panel of the door, suf-
ficient to let any one step into the
vault without trouble. The flame had
sheared right through the machinery
of the complicated locks. and there
had been no attempt to find the
easiest line. The hand that had done
the work had simply cut out a chunk
from the door, four square, and had
not turned aside even for the gun
metal wheel handle. This had a seq
ment shorn clean from 1t, and the
severad fragment was lying on the
floor. 1t was mighty good work even
for oxyacetylene.
Without a word of comment, my
father stepped into the vault by the
opening, and ] followed him. The
compartments inside had all been
broken open, and the floor of the
vault was Uttered with bonds and
securities that seemed to me to be
worth of stacks of money ] saw a
panied expression creep into the old
mans face, and / permitted myself
the first question that morning.
Bad l whispered
Bad he repeated soberly. Lord.
son-there will be a lot to do before
we get over the badness of it,

SISTERHOOD OTES TO
DANISH CARD PARTIES

A resolution banishing card parties
and other gambling" affairs from Sis.
terhood meetings, and premises of syna-
gogs, was passed at the recent conven-
tion of the Texas State Federation held
in Houston, Texas. The resolution de-
clared that gambling" was inconsistent
with the spirit of religious culture, and
was therefore out of place in the
synagog.
The State Federation has set two
objcctives for the following year: the
completion of census of the Jews of
Texas, and the erection of guest
house in Austin, Texas, for the bene-
fit of Jewish boys and girls attend
ing the University of Texas.

JEWS HAVE TRIED ALL ISMS
EXCEPT JUDAISM, SAYS
MARSHALL

New Nork-"rhe Jews Of America
have tried all kinds Of 'lsms except one,
and that ls Judaism" was declared by
Louis Marshall at the dinner given by
the Jewish Publication Society of
America, on the OCCASION of Its 35th
anniversary, last night, at the Ritz
Carlton Hotel.
The society made an appeal for
S25O,OoO In order to meet It's deficit,
and also to be able to publish num-
Der Of noteworthy contributions to the
Jewish literature of this country, in
Guiding English commentaries on the
Bible.
Mr.. Marshall In his speech also de
clared: IF the Jews of America were
to have their minds DIRECTED toward
the interests of such an organization
as this is for the continuance and pre-
servation Of Judaism, | am sure they
would answer our plea. II is wrong
to say that because the Jewish Prbli-
cation Society has its headquarters in
Philadelphia II cannot function. Phlla-
delphia Jews are not asleep. II is we
I'm New York who need to he awakened.
What has New York done for the so
clcty ecept to give it thu assistance of
some OF Its scholars like Dr. Jacob II.
Schlfr, who gave the money for the
publication of an English translation
of the Bible? | regard 1t AS II reproach
upon us that we have done so little.
We try to emulate our Christian
friends in directions which sometimes
consider not necessarily desirable. But
they have some things deserving of
emulatlo min religion and with respect
to religious education which we do not
copy.
How many Jewish families have in
their homes our revised English trans
lation of the Bible? | wouldn't in
suit this audience by asking those of
This is matter of utmost seriousness.
We are not going to preserve Judaism
in this country by making speeches ut
dinners or attending dinners"
Rabbi Krass, who was also present
at the dinner, said that detractors of
the Jews interpret the appelation given
them, "The People of the Book" as "A
people interested exclusively in ledgers
and bank-books.'
THE Jewish Publication Society,"" he
added, had it done nothing else than
publish an English translation of the
Hebrew Bible, would have justified its
existence. 1t ought to be the aim of
all Of us who are interested in the
society to see to it that Bible is
placed in every Jewish home in the
United States and that the old custom
of reading the Scriptures in the home
be revived
All of the speakers culogized the late
Judge Meyer Sulzberger for his ardent
labors in behalf of the society. Simon
Miller president of the society, and
Rabbi Samuel Schulman We're among

being his plea to the Christian churches

the minds of children be not poisoned

A NATTER OF DIVERSION


In her hours Of ease" writes Ros-
allnd A. schwab, In the May pumber
OF the B'nni Birth News, "the Jew
css Is anything but easy. This inten
sity has its origin, | imagine, In re-
action from centuries of ghetto repres-
sion, n joyous Towering In this land of
milk and honey. We are determined
to get out of life every lota of JOY there
is In It.
Take, for example, the matter of
our daily bread. 10 us our meals are
not merely n matter of physical neces-
sity; they are n function, noble rite.
We may know, really, what they eat
In Clifton or the remotcr parts of East
Hill. But we picture 1t as cold and
unsatisfying. But the good dinners
among our own friends, with the nah
jongg tables laid ready In the living
room-l lick my lips over fond mem
cries of mushroom soups, dotted with
whipped cream, rainbow-hued compotes,
''NN' VI spihiS hioMhlHS III
butter l do not for moment
believe that we are greedy or u sem
sual people. But when We dine. we
have pleasure In the dining.
Not, mind you, that we do not en-
| joy the spiritual and mental pleasures
-. We go In hordes to the symphonies
"a W.. 1T, :, T..
clubs and classes, lectures and learn
Ing. We plunge into philan-
thropic work with leap that jndi-
Gates not only our sense of duty but
also our vast delight in reports, COM
mittecs, and Roberts Rules of Order.
Indeed, not to mention occa asion-
ally, with distraught expression,
that you have three meetings today,
and n paper due tomorrow, is to be
completely declassce.
Il can hardly leave this subject of
intellectual pleasures without mention
ing dramatics. The influence of the
Jewish woman can certainly be called
theatrical, If our beloved city of Y is
n criterion. We have the two temple
ccnters which welcome and develop bud
ding talent. There is the Art Theatre,
TO which some of our actresses lend
their services. Beside these, l know
of no less than five organizations,
among the younger members of our
tribe alone, which concern themselves
to some extent with the writing and
production of plays. ..
I'VE are such travellers that we
might well be called Wandering Jews.
Our detractors accuse us of loving
jewels, and of wearing them ostenta-
tiously. And yet most of us, if Civ
en- the choice of a string of pearls
of course rather small string-and
an extra bathroom, would take the
bathroom without hesitation. We re-
joce in deep couches, incincrators and
bridge lamps. We plan to make our
homes contribute as much as possible
TO our enjoyment of life.
| And is this universal earnestness
TO be despised? Personally l do not
| think so. For the sake of cold and
lofty Indifference, / would never will
| ingly forego the eagerness with which
meet life, although that eagerness
often brings disappointment in its
train. Those who do not share it may
well envy us our ability TO extract
pleasure from many and varied ex-
| periences."

syrup than you could buy ready
made for three times the money.

ton gets right at the cause of
cough and gives almost immediate
relief. 1t IoOsens the phlegm, stops
the nasty throat tickle and heals
the sore, irritated membranes SO
gently and easily that it is really
astonishing.

the ordinary cough and for bron-
chitis, Group, h0arseness and bron-
chial asthma, there is nothing bet
ter.

trated compound of genuine Nor
way pine extract, and has been used
for generations to break severe
coughs.

WAYCROSS Ga.,, January 23.-Dr.
Henry Corbett, a physician, is in a
critical condition at a local hospital
and Walter Hay. editor of the Villa

coochee following a shooting affair
which occurred in Willacoochee Sat

During the Christmas holidays Hay
was away from his home, and his
dog was left to roam about, it Is said.
The animal bit DR.. Corbett's child.
Upon Hays return, DR.. Corbett is
said to have demanded that the dog
be killed.
Some time later the dog was found
dead, evidently having been poisoned.
1t was then that Hay wrote the edi-
torial in his paper, and. in no uncer-
tain terms, condemned the poisoner
of his dog.
Saturday afternoon DR.. Corbett. it
is reported. met Hay on the street
and asked If the remarks in the edi-
torial were directed at him. Hay is
answer that grew into a fistic en-
counter During the exchange of
blows Hay, according to witnesses.
fired three times into DR.. Corbett's
body.
The editor gave himself up.
