Why Every Jew Should Beal Diiiiin inunun

Member of the Order of
B'nai B'rith.

Special

By MEYER S. FINK

i • o ■ sidtabinpor.!J .

There are sometimes questions
asked. Will the Order of B'nai
B'rith be prominent? Will it disap-
pear like all the rest of the Jewish -
organizations which have started
within the last 75 years and lived and
flourished for sometime, then went out
of existence? I can only reply to
these thoughts in one way. For the
last 5,000 years great organizations
of government existed, Egypt, Syria,
Babylon, Greece and Rome. They made
a great stir while they lasted they
even flourished for sometime. Today
they are mere shadows and a dream.
The reason why they perished was be-
cause they had no mission which
would benefit humanity, and when
their materialism came to an end they
disappeared with it.
While the above nations made
every effort to injure Judaism, they
themselves were destroyed and Juda-
ism has flourished more than ever be-
fore. The reason is that, Judaism
has one mission to perform which an-
nounces to the whole world in open
daylight One God, One Humanity,
ustice, Social and Righteousness to
ill.
The B'nai li'rith has a mission
smelly to perform for Judaism. The
vim and ideals is to unite Judaism as
whole into one compact body. They
lo not realize any dogmatic interpre-
tations They do not distinguish be-
tween a Keren Hayesod or an Ameri-
can Zionist It makes no difference
whether a man belongs to the con-
servative or liberal type All they
ask when one applies to the order is
to be a Good Jew and a Good Ameri-
can. They do not recognize any social
distinction. It makes no difference
whether a man is a millionaire or a
poor laborer who earns his living "hy
the sweat of his brow." Ile is equal
to any other man in the Order. It
is' every Jews duty to affiliate with
the Order and to become an active
member of the organization.
I trust that this message at this
time of the year, when every Jew con-
sults his conscience whether he is do-
ing his full duty to Judaism, will take
it to heart and ask himself the
....• question, whether he is right by not
having joined the Order up to the
present time and affiliated with the
noblest and most ideal organization
in the history of Judaism.
I take this opportunity of wishing
each and every brother of the Pisgah
Lodge of the Order of B'nai B'rith
a Happy and Prosperous New Year,

Philomathic translated into simple
English signifies "love of learning."
Throughout the 22 years of its exis-
tence it has followed steadily that
ideal implied in its name. The Philo-
mathic Club has a purpose for its
existence, and it is the purpose that
caused the birth of the organization,
was responsible for its prosperous
ermlition and which has continued to
he its protection against adversities.
The purpose of the Philomathic
Club is to prepare its young men for
the battle of life, to be a credit to
themselves, to the Jewish race and to
the nation of which they are a part.
With this in mind, a representative
group of the young manhood of the
Jewish people, finding the doors of
high school societies closed to them,
formed an organization based on "love
of learning,"—the Philomathic De-
puting Club.
From its humble beginning 22 years
ago, the Philomathic Debating Club
has outgrown even the optimistic ex-
pectations of its founders, until today
It is recognized as one of the largest
debating organizations in the state
numbering hundreds of names on the
alumni roll.
The Philomathic has widened the
scope of its activities to include an
nual model meetings, oratorical con-
tests and other events by which the
Jewish community could judge the
work of the organization. The ban-
quets held annuallly give the mem-
bers an opportunity to become ac-
quainted with the alumni, who on this
occasion attend en masse for sake of
reunion with their old friends and for
the sake of talking over old times.
The policy of holding debates with
other organizations has added prestige
to the Philomathic. The organiza-
tion has gradually stepped out of the
rank of a high school debating society
into that of a college organization
holding even more than their own in
debates with college clubs.
Nor has the Philomathic overlooked
its greater duties to the Jewish Kople
and America. In the many activities
which arose as a result of the world
crisis, the Philomathic has not been
found wanting. A large number en-
listed. In Jewish War Relict', Pales-
tine Restoration Fund and the Lib-
erty 1,-an Drives,—in none of these
has the Philomathic shirked its duty.
Membership in the I'hilomathic en-
tails many duties and responsibilities.
To carry out the purpose and ideal of
the organization, active young men
are needed. The serious and earnest
young man will find it a distinction to
belong to the Philomathic.
