"FLYING HAROLD" THE AUTHOR
Harold M. Abrahams, the world's greatest sprinter, winner of the 100-
yard race at the last Olympic games in Paris, has written a highly interest-
ing article on the Jews and athletics, which is part of a book which has MRS. J. SIIERLINE — First class

victions, and I have considered the matter from the racial point of
view; there are no means of telling Jews by mere names unless it
be by their religious activities. Second, such a catalogue would
be invidious. Suffice it to say that in England, as well as in other
lands, Jews have obtained high honors in boxing, football, running,
jumping, rowing, cricket and swimming. And they possess every
attribute which qualifies them for such success.
It is true that a strict adherence to the dietary laws would pre-
vent a Jew from participating, for example, in an athletic tour; a
rigid observance of the Sabbath in all its forms would prohibit almost
entirely his participation in high-class competitions of any kind, in

low-grade fuels
Few subjects call for as frank speaking as the
use of low-grade oils in home heating. For we
believe that every oil burner would burn a
good grade of distillate if it could afford to.
For distillate is a standard product, depend-
able, easy to secure, and will always be plen-
tiful. Low-grade fuel oil is not. Every experi-
enced oil burner manufacturer, every experi-
enced oil burner user, every home-owner
who appreciates the difference between hard

commonly used to oil country roads.
