RICH has helped me so
much, and now that the holi-

would like to pass on a few
hints in the hope that they
may perhaps be useful to
other readers.
Smorgasbord: This is good
for a buffet lunch or supper.
Although it takes work, it
leaves the hostess free from
cooking on the day of the
party. because everything can
be prepared the day before.
Anything can be served in the
way of canapes, cheese, SAL
ads, and relishes, with q cas-
Serole of Swedish meatballs,
kidney beans. hot coffee and
rye bread. Be sure to include
a dish of fresh, crisp radishes.
For a quick and very simple
dessert. add slices of frozen
strawberries with some of the
juice to a lemon gelatin mix.
Beat white of egg Zone for
every two people, very stiff.
Add a strong but not too sweet
chocolate mixture to this and
beat again. Result: a very
light. pleasant mousse. Use
the yolks for binding meat
loaves, etc.
A branch from your yard,
perhaps painted silver, hung
with small Christmas orna.
ments makes a pretty decora-
ton anywhere in the house.
For Christmas breakfast for
a child, whip stiff the white OF
an egg. Into the middle drop
a yolk. The result, If carefully
prepared. is a huge and pretty
broiled or fried egg.

FLEAS
mrs. C. w. w., HynttsUille)
Any reputable veterinarian
will sell "Chlordane," which is
what they use for flea baths.
It is a liquid and sold in
ounces. Two teaspoonfuls are
used to each quart Of water,
which is sponged thoroughly
over the dog, being careful not
to get it in his eyes or let it run
down in his ears, although the
inside of his ears may be wiped
with a cloth wrung out in this
mixture. Also, do not forget to
soak the tail thoroughly and to
get the mixture all over the
dog. This will keep the fleas
and ticks of the dog for sew
eral months even on contact
with other dogs with fleas.
After each bath it must be re-
newed and also If the dog be-
comes soaked in a rain. It
cannot be used on cats. You do
not necessarily have to give the
dog a bath before using it, al
though I have found it best. I
have three dogs and almost
went crazy fighting fleas until
I discovered Chlordane. Please
note this is not the Chlordane
sold in stores but is a special
mixture made up for use on
dogs, and may only be OBJ
tanned from veterinarians.

I'M. i. j., ATLIHgLONI
I want to give a few words
of warning, suggestions and
reasons concerning live gifts
for Christmas. I will speak Of
dogs, since I know them fairly
well, but cats, monkeys. etc..
enter into the consideration.
First, do not give without find
ing out if the people who will
be most concerned with its
care and responsibility do not
object, parents, wives or hus-
bands. Be sure the breed OF
animal is the breed desired by
the recipient. If this living
gift is not provided with a
little food to tide it over until
the new owner can get to the
store. find out from the
breeder what its diet is and
provide something for it to eat.
Be sure to get instructions as
10 lCS care as we'll.
If the gift is supposed to
have temporary or permanent
shots, a veterinarians certif1-
cate should be included with
Axe and pedigree papers.
Your nearest vet will usually
give you the name of a reli-
able breeder among his clients.
If your friend has a dog, a
series of obedience training
lessons would be a nice gift,
If the person is interested in
training. A series would be
about 10 lessons at $5 to $40
for the series.
If you know of a gift animal,
a gift certificate to the person
of $25 to cover the cost Of
veterinarian fees would also
be a nice gift. Remember,
that in general. you get what
you pay for. If the price is
less, find out why and compare
that animal with the one which
costs more. The greater price
may be the cheapest after all.

Democracy Is Basic To Judaism

both by their actions and words,
to be the most formidable foes
of the Communist conspiracy to
enSlave the minds of men. The
number of those Jewish thinkers
who have combatted Commun-
ism is legion.
The trump card of the anti
Semitic, the reiterated charge that
Jews are Communists, is played
on many occasions. At the hear
ings of the Joint Congressional
Committee on Atomic Energy,
David E. Lilienthal, before he
could be confirmed as chairman
of the Atomic Energy Commis-
sion, was attacked, by implica-
ton, as a Communist. The for
mer IVA head spoke with such
compelling force that his words
before the committee in 1947 con-
stitute one of the most moving
and memorable statements of
faith in democracy ever uttered
by an American.
In his book, This Do Believe,
Lilienthal amplified this faith in
democracy and in the sacredneSs
of the human personality. THE
essential ingredient of democ-
racy," Lillienthal declared, "is not
doctrine but intelligence, not au-
thority but reason, not cynicism
but faith in man, faith in God"
The best protection against Com
munist propaganda is to imple-
ment the values basic to democ-
racy. Lilienthal voiced the senti-
ment of Jews everywhere when
he pointed out that it is not so
much what we are against as
what we are for that causes us
to oppose Communism.

to belong. There Is no common
political denominator for Jews,
no political faith which they all
profess. AS a group, they are, by
nature or historical circumstan.
ces, neither capitalists nor Com
muniStS, neither all Republicans
nor all Democrats, neither liber-
ais nor reactionarieS.
1t is also true that the ranks
of Communism are filled with
members drawn from every faith,
race, and nationality in the world.
If a balanced picture is to be
presented, it is obvious that the
American Jews have on the
whole been loyal and devoted
supporters of the American
dream.
Historically, the Jews, cooped
up in the ghetto, espoused liberal
legislation as means of emanci-
patton. AS a minority group they
were invariably on the side of
democratic causes, earnestly sup
porting the principle of freedom
and justice, the forces that made
for social progress and equality
of treatment. But no matter how
eagerly they accommodated
themselves to the laws of the ma
ton in which they lived, they
were compelled to lead an up
rooted and precarious life. Under
such adverse circumstances of
poverty, persecution, and system
attic exclusion, it is not surpris-
ing that some of the bolder Spir-
it's joined the radical movement.
Believing as they do in the in
trinsic worth and dignity of the
human being, Jewish intellectuals
have strongly supported the dem
ocratic ideal and have proved,

BY CHARLES i. GLICkSbEhG
In the past few decades the
slander most favored and most
frequently employed by bigots
against the Jews is the allegation
that "all Jews are Communists. !"
Ignoring all the enduring and vi
tai contributions Judaism has
made to civilization. these anti
Semites will point with perverse
logic to the fact that Karl Marx,
the author of Communist Mani
festo, was born a Jew. Hence,
they argue triumphantly, every
Jew Is an actual or potential
Communist by nature.
OF course, the Jewish birth of
Karl Marx has not the slightest
relation to the content of Marx
ism. Militantly atheistic, Marx
possessed but a Slight interest in
the Jewish question, which he
consistently regarded as part of
a more complex and comprehen-
sive issue, the class conflict. Once
wage slavery was abolished, once
capitalism was overthrown, the
Jewish problem would be auto
matically solved. The notion that
the Jews are the fountainhead of
radicalism, temperamentally dis
posed to adopt the revolutionary
creed of Marxism, has gained
currency
The leading motif of anti-Semi-
tic groups is that Communism
offers the spectacle of world Jew
ry in action, that it constitutes an
underground means of enabling
the Jews to seize world power.
In general, the political allegi-
ance of the Jews reflects the po-
litical outlook and sympathieS of

The Thanksgiving season is the
most important time of the year
for many of the states 80 Or
phanages which have cared for
nearly 4,500 dependent children
this year at cost of approximate
ely 100000.
Their supporting constituencies
lodges, fraternal order, relig-
ious groups and other non-profit
organizations-usually respond
generously to these Thanksgiving
campaigns and superintendent
of the homes are optimistic about
this years offerings.
The appeal for the Baptist Or
phanage of North Carolina is ty-
pical of the other 81 institutions.
Give One Days Pay" is the
theme and this idea has been
used by many homes in this and
other states. 1t was originated
more than 80 years ago by the
late D. M. L. Kesler, general
superintendent of the Baptist Or
phanage from 1905 to 1882 and
recognized as one of the states
pioneers in the child care field.
Like other homes, the Baptist
Orphanage depends heavily on
the Thanksgiving offering in the
churches since more than one
third of the years budget comes
in during the season.
Embarrassing methods by or
phanages have changed consider
ably in the last two or three de-
cades. The Singing classes" of
yesteryear are almost a thing of
the past. They were hard on the
children and child welfare au-
thorities frown on them today as
being tinged with exploitation of
the child. Children now go out in
small groups to enjoy the hospi-
tality of churches and other
groups when they are invited.
Child-caring homes have found
that their supporters will see
that the children are properly
cared for if the needs are made
known.

while ar old wife will take you
to the cleaners in a manner of

require your devotion while an
old wife requires your devotion,
time, money, automobile and the

pack.
1t is true your pipe cannot
darn your socks, but your wife
can't even find them in the first
place. A pipe is not a good thing
for children to have as it will
make them sick, but wife is the
only thing to have around them
and will cure all their ills.
An old pipe is constantly gett-

an old wife if you wanted to do
so.
Now you take an old pipe and

a man to choose between them.
