He said it is studied as a book, from start to finish, and not as a theologi- cal work. Children, he said, are taken to the places where the incidents in the Bible are supposed to have been enacted and are given living illus- trations of the history of their peo- ple and of the Biblical story. $ 56.00 This Beautiful Period Secretary We are offering this Secretary finished in Wal- nut or Mahogany as a definite, tangible example of the rare combination of economy and beauty to be found in Detroit Furniture Shops' products.

BERLIN—(J. T. A.).—A memor- andum describing the Zionist position in Palestine and explaining the need of British aid in facilitating the re- construction of the Jewish Homeland has been submitted by the Zionist Executive Committee to the British Colonial Office, Nahum Sokolow informed the Greater Actions Com- mittee in seim-annual meeting here. The presentation of this memoran- dum followed the report Dr. Weiz- mann made to his colleagues on the Zionist Executive' ommittee after his return from Palestine. The colonial office was urged to remove restric- tions hindering the Zionist progress in Palestine, Mr. Sokolow declared. Removal of the head office of the Palestine Foundation Fund from London to Jerusalem is urged in cabled resolutions received by Zion- ist leaders from the National Execu- tive Committee of the Zionist Organ- ization of America and from the American directors of the fund, the American Zionists insisting that the elimination of the London office of the Keren Ilayesod will result in a considerable saving of expenditure. WHO CAN ESCAPE? Once King Solomon had two scribes, Elihoreph and Ahijah, whom he loved dearly, and they were to him as his own sons. And it happened that the wise king, who could read the future in the stars, saw that his servants were doomed to die within forty days. And he was grieved in his heart, since he loved them so tenderly, and he summoned them be- fore him, saying: "My faithful servants you are doomed to die within forty days, but I would have you escape the sword of the Angel of Death; therefore, make you ready for a long journey, and I will bid the birds to fly before you until you reach the City of Luz, where death never comes. There you will be safe and will not die." Then the scribes took food and garments, and all things necessary for their journey. And they set nut in great haste for the fear of death was upon them. They were fearful of pausing on the road, even for rest or refreshment, for they said, one to the other: The way to the City of Luz is long, and the time allowed for our journey is short. Therefore, let us hasten that we may reach the city of safety before the forty days have passed." So, pausing not in their journey, and breathless and well-nigh ex- hausted with haste, they passed through cities and deserts, over moun- tains and through valleys, until, at the end of the fortieth day, the white towers of the City of Luz came in sight. And their hearts rejoiced that they had reached the city of refuge before it was too late. At length they approached the mar- ble portals which gleamed rosy in the sunset. They saw that there were no guards before the gates, but, as they drew near and were about to enter into the city where death never comes, they saw standing before them a great shrouded figure with a shining sword in its hand. And the creature of the City of Luz spoke to them, that blocked their path at the gate saying: "I am the Angel of Death, and I have waited for you to come to me. For, the command was laid upon me to take your souls at this moment, and in this place." Then as the two frightened travelers gazed at each other in horror and surprise, the figure with the sword continued: "In no other place on earth than at the gate of the City of Luz could I have taken your souls, for the Lor d in Whose hands are both life and death bade me slay you here in this very gate. And your master, King Solomon, who thought to save you, served no• instead by sending you to die here at the appointed hour." WITNESS BEATING OF JEWS Jews, but against progress.
