Before philanthropy was organized and systema-
tized into what is at present known as welfare or social
work, there was no attempt made to learn the causes of
poverty, disease, crime and prostitution. Those who
were more fortunate felt it their duty to give their less
fortunate brethren, and accepted all these ills and
derelections as necessary evils. or part of the inscruti-
table scheme of Divine Providence. The lazy, unscien-
tific theory that these things have always been and will
always be was sufficient both for the givers and receiv-
ers. But our age, which questions every heretofore ac-
cepted verity, and seeks to discover hidden causes, is
not satisfied with these explanations that do not ex-
plain, and these fatalisms that destroy and disintegrate
social life.
The first move made by the social workers was to
do away with individual. indiscriminate charity, which
at best only pauperized the recipients and gave the
donor a feeling of satisfaction. This, however, was
only the first step, a necessary and valuable one, for it
meant efficiency and economy. But this only touched
effects at best. It did not reach causes which gave rise
to the need of philanthropy organized or otherwise.
However, it did not take long for the men and wom-
en with special training, scientific outlooks and social
consciousness to realize that these problems were sus,
ceptible of solution if only the causes were scientifically
ascertained.

To the lover of books the Menorah Journal is a joy;
it gives one a thrill. Typographically and artistically
it is the last word. The range of subject matter will
please the specialist as well as the general reader.
World renowned Jews have contributed and are con
tributing to it. The literary excellence equals that of
any journal now printed in the English language in this
country. And above and beyond all these things it has
adhered consistently to its original purpose—to keep
alive
alive the spirit of Judaism and to spread a knowledge
of Jewish philosophy, history, literature, art and drama
among those who can best be entrusted with this heri-
tage. and transmit it to future generations.
The Menorah Journal has more than justified its
existence. It has proved that a magazine can maintain
a standard of uniform excellence and need never pan-
der to the tastes of those who want the sensational and
lurid. It has never hesitated to publish opinions of
those who were not in full sympathy with the idea that
Judaism was worth perpetuating. The readers judg
mept was counted upon to choose and discriminate.
--/. American Jewry inside the colleges as well as out-
side must maintain and support this fountain of light
and beauty.

Republican Leaders Worried.

EPUBLICAN leaders in the
Clouse, meanwhile, have seen a
new cloud on the horizon, a cloud of
dingy hue. They have become im-
pressed with the possibility of losing
the foreign vote at the coming elec-
tion if the Johnson Bill goes through
and Republican leaders have made so
bold as to assert that consideration of
the Johnson Bill will be delayed until
other immediate and necessary legis-
lation is attended to, which would
leave Mr. Johnson's bill out in the
cold.

FROM A TOWER

I love rivulets and flowers,
Shade-trees, leafy, tall;
But I love the lofty towers—
Towers beat of all.

At their belfry, at their steeple
No man ever stood;
From on high I look on people—
And they look so good ...

Yond the center of the city
Orderly and still;
Every workshop—clean and pretty,
Luring—every

Gone the Guard House; Gone the Toll Ho USE
People—girls and boys;
Every house—a fancy doll-house,
Trains—just infant's toys.

Who said, city-life was riot,
Shame, and hue, and cry?
List, how orderly, how quiet—
Quiet from on high....
