The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1925-03-19

Misses Sarah and Bert White, who
have been residents of Oakland since
childhood, moved from here to Akron,
Ohio, last Saturday, at which place
they expect to make their home in
the future.
At recent meeting of the board
of trustees of the Knights of Pythias
lodge of Oakland it was decided to
make some very extensive improve
ments in the interior of the Maryland
Theatre. The plans include the re-
decoration of the entire interior of
the theatre and to place a very elab-
crate entrance from Third street.
Improvements of a minor nature are
also planned on other parts of the
building.

Jews less Inclined to Suicide Than
Others

Interesting figures regarding the rate
of Jewish suicides are given also by Il.
lie Clcrc Phillips New York ''Times.')
who points ont that Jews are less in
cllncd TO self-dcstructi0n than Cath
olics and Protestants.
Mr., Phillips tells us:
when suicide is considered from the
point nf view Of religious faith, II Is
seen that Protestants are far more
prone to sclf-dcstruction than Roman
Catholics. all Catholic countries except
France having comparatively low
suicide rate. The rate of Italy is less
than . pcr 100000 of The population. as
against - in Protestant S1Nony. With
the exception of Bavaria, Jews in all
countries are somewhat less inclined t.
suicide than Catholics. The fact is re
markahlc. for Jews are strongly In
tcllrciual and are town and not country
dwcllers, and it is the intellectuals and
the city dwellers who chiefly swell
the ranks of the suicides.
In the last fifty years ar so there
has. however, been a slight increase in
the Jewish rate in Europe, although It
Is doubtful whether it exceeds the
| Catholic rate anywhere except in Ba-
yarin. Durkheim explains the com
parntNc Jewish immunity TO suicide by
saying that, while Jews possess mod
ern intelligence and intellectually the
modern spirit of despair is lacking in
them

ORIGINS OF JEWISH SUR
NAMES


"A Good Name Is Better Than
Riches. Solomon.
How did we Jews get our surnames
in the first place? What, if anything,
should we do about them in the Unit
ed States?
To Gentle, his surname is mat
ter of absorbing interest. How he
came by his particular name and
whether he counts among the bearers
of that name valorous men and beau
tiful women, interests and fascinates
every intelligent Christian. The New
York Public Library, for instance, has
set aside special hall which contains
thousands of volumes on genealogy,
and it is an exceptional day when it
has fewer than several hundred visi-
tors. This absorption in the subject
of nomenclature may smack of snob-
bishness but l can imagine many
worse things. A normal person is
quite naturally interested in his fam
lily tree.
The subject of Jewish nomoncla-
ture has not been studied as thor
oughly and extensively as it deserves.
"Jewish surnames," wrote Symon
Stungo twenty years ago, "are en-
tirely ntal-horticultural ZOO
logical or colorific." What Mr.. Stungo
had in mind were such Jewish sur
names as Gold, Silver, Diamond and
Pcrlman-the sound of jewelry can
be heard! He notes the melancholy
fact that most Jews whose names be-
gin with gold" or "silver" or perl"
suffer acutely from proverty. By
coloriiic surnames he has in mind
Schwartz, Weiss, Braun, Green, Bleu;
under horticultural, Stungo under
stands such names as Greenfield. Ro-
zenfeld; geological, Wolf, Fox, Katz.
The Anglo-Jewish scholar, Albert
NJ. Hyamson, calls attention that "the
adoption of hereditary surnames by
Jews who took place in different To-
calities on various occasions" 1t ap-
pears that the Sephardim were the
first to have done so. They possessed
beautifully sounding surnames in
Spain hundreds of years ago.
The adoption of hereditary sur
names by Jews took place compar-
atively recently in Teutonic countries.
at was not until 1885," says Hyam-
son, "that the governments of the
last Of the German states took meas
ures to compel their adoption" In
numerous eases the Jews adopted
patronymic surnames-that is, end
ing in Sohn. In not a few cases
chance was called to assist. The Bible
was opened and the first name hit
upon was adopted. Hyamson relates
how in one instance the congregation
assembled in synagogue for that pur-
pose. The rabbi opened the prayer
book and the first word on the page
was taken by the first family, second
word by the second family. Patro-
nymics formed large production of
surnames adopted by Jews. Com
mencing with Biblical names, we
have: Abraham became Abrahamson,
Abramowitz; Isaac became lsakowitz,
Isaacson, Sachs, Sacks, SAKE; Joseph
