Probably the molt unique propaganda of • religious character

deal of attention and created much comment.

All of us are interested in Americanisation. A newspaper friend
of mine brought this very interesting esperience to me. It is so well
worth while and so completely tine that I most write it down. Said
ewspaper man: "Patriotism being something more than stirring
the n
lections by the band, fluttering flags flying from platforms loaded
te
with perspiring orators and the common rigmarole of verbosity that
issues from political mouths in campaigns, it is well to pick up now
and then a story of real patriotism-patriotism on the quiet, as it
were; patriotism done in secret. That's the genuine American brand,

and the kind Cohen had."

"Cohen was a junk dealer in Broddyn. To him came an adver•
tiling solicitor of one of the big Broolyn dailies to get an ad. The
solicitor didn't get an ad, but he did gd a new angle on the subject of
Americanism. He was about to walk away after finding he couldn't
obtain •rt advertisement when Cohen invited him into • dim little
room in the rear of his junk shop. 'ly dear friend,' said Cohen, 'I
wish you to see something. I come her from Europe. You were born
in the United Sint.. You. love the fig. American people i fove, ,rthe
fl a g. What do you think •bout this?' They were in the dingi,room.
The advertiser looked to where Cohn wan pointing and he saw the
walls literally hidden beneath Americn flags."

ew-

"Each flag had been picked out of t junk load and carefully hung
Oct nail. It was en unusual sight. 'he advertising man had never
seen one like it before. 'You see,' Chen went on, 'these flags come
from the good American people of Booklyn; they got tired of them
•nd threw them out with the junk. Ah, Cohen does not allow this
much to me tdie in any junk. I get so many,
dear flag that means so
what shall I do? So I hang them up n this special room-my Amen-
room.'
Yes,
Americanizatin
means something more than
c•n flag

words and Cohen, the Russian Jewie junk
ing of it."

The disciples of Bahaism will morn the death of the third prophet

country went the disciples of Belida and made convert.. It has been

the Occidental attempts to devdo an intelligent contact with the

He writes: "Zakopane is situated inlicia at the foot of the Tatra
mountains. In winter Zakopane is dwitserland of Poland. Nearly
forty years ago the peasants of the v)e (now so prosperous and pic-
turesquely clad) were miserably poond all of them deeply in debt
to Jews who, by mortgages and so cwere gradually obtaining pos-

session of their small bits of land."

"When, therefore," continues the vie to Poland, "the great valley
in which Zakoplane stands was put tor sale then there was excite-
ment and fear all over the countryt the Jews or the Austrians

1 SCHULDINGER BRINGS

ENCOURAGING REPORT
OF PALESTINE STATUS

Harry Schuldinger, for a number of
years prominent in Zionist activities
in Detroit, last week returned from
Palestine and brought with hint first
hand information of conditions there.
Mr. Schuldinger, who now repre-
sents the Marbadia, better known ns
the Palestine Carpet Company, went
to Palestine to study the industrial
conditions and declared upon his re-
turn that there are unlimited oppor-
tunities for Jewish pioneers in the
Holy Land.
While Mr. Schuldinger emphasized
the need of private enterprises in Pal-
estine, he declared that the Keren
Ilayesod must be made a success in
order to carry out the necessary gov-
ernment functions for the carrying
out of the Balfour Declaration and
the San Renal decision.
Private industry, according to Mr.
Schuldinger, will help make Palestine
the Jewish Homeland as per the de-
cisions of the world powers, Ile cm-
. phasized the need for industries like
the one he represented, the Marbadia.
Organized less than a year us a pri-
vate owporation, this carpet weaving
industry has developed into an insti-
tutiim of importance.
The Marbadia was originally con-
ducted by the Bezalel Art School of
Palestine, but, after 10 years of ef-
fort, had to be given over into pri-
vate hands. In less than a year's
time, the Marbadia has proved a suc-
cess and was placed on a financial
basis.
Having been started with 10 girls,
the company now employs 120 at the
carpet weaving art, all the carpets
being made by hand. Mr. Schuldinger
said there were plenty of workers who
k now the art of carpet weaving, but
the lack of machinery proves a handi-
cap. He appealed on behalf of the
Marbadia that Jews take an interest
in this institution and help improve
the industry,
Mr. Schuldinger said that the aims
of the Marbadia were particularly to
create a distinguished Jewish art. Ile
said the aims of most Jewish art in-
stitutions were to create things dis-
tinctly Jewish.
The organization of institutions like
the Marbadia is seen as a practical
movement on the part of practical
men to create industry which will give
Jews an opportunity to buy Jewish
articles when they need them and
thereby assist practically in the build-
ing of the Jewish Homeland.
Mr. Schuldinger brought with him
many products of his school which he
will place on exhibition in a week or

"The big thing in B'nai B'rith is
the idea of a united Israel that it
fosters-that the peddler is as good a
man as the merchant prince-that the
banker is no better than the shoe-,
maker. I'Ve ask only that the man
should bear the badge of benevolence,
brotherly love and harmony.
"With the divine inspiration and
love of God, Pisgah Lodge has grown

Mr, Kusworm gave several vivid
and typical examples of the different

by the speaker. Letters Of apprw0a.

ment for the erection of a $100,000

And the second time she brought
back an olive leaf in her beak! For
the waters had really been going
down so fast that not only the moun-
tain tops were visible but also the
trees that grew on their rocky sides.
And soon the Ark landed on Mt.
Ararat and Noah looked down upon
the earth below. The waters were
nearly all gone from the land. The
hillsides and higher valleys were glor-
iously green and fresh. It was spring-
time everywhere, and in the sky the .
gleaming rainbow had appeared-a
sign of God's promise never to bring
such a flood again. By and by the'!
waters entirely disappeared. Noah and '
his family, all dressed in beautiful
white clothes and singing songs of
praise and thanksgiving, came out of ,
the Ark, and after them came all [h.
animals and the birds, every one full
of joy and hops. And before them
flew the white dove, with the olive'
twig in her beak. And Noah blessed
her, saying that she would always be
looked upon as the messenger of
