There are also un- necessary publications that represent duplicate circulation, and that are un- necessary to the general furthering of a commercial program. I think that there is an analogy to this in the multiplicity of churches, only a few of which work to capacity. Religion must learn that the church is only its instrument, and that fewer churches, more efficiently maintained, will prove a better means of spreading the Word of God, than will many churches, each struggling with too high an overhead! This brings us to a brief considera- tion of the third great division of mod- ern business—that of distribution.

For 53 years engineers attempted to adapt the two industrial methods of burning oil—the vaporizing or preheating method and the refractory brickwork method—to the home without success. THEN 7 YEARS AGO came Nokol. -A- It brought an entirely new method of burn- ing oil—the Nokol combustion chamber. The success of oil burning, of automatic oil heating for homes, dates from the day when the first Nokol, with its combustion 'chamber, was installed. W HAT HAPPENED? In 7 years Nokol became a nation-wide institution, with 22,000 owners, in 48 states, 900 cities, 6 foreign countries. Nokol grew as a result of the service it rendered to home owners. S OMETHING ELSE happened also. Nokol revolutionized home-heating meth- ods. It developed an entirely new market. To- day ther re 347 manufacturers of automatic oil bu ers. In other words Nokol built a new industry. It built oil burning. BUT THERE ARE only three meth. ods of burning oil—preheating, lining the boiler with firebrick, or using a combustion chamber. The latter method is exclusive with Nokol. It is fully patented, and may be used by no other oil burner, except under license. CONSEQUENTLY the other 346 CONSEQUENTLY have had to fall back upon and revive one of the two other methods, meth- ods which have been in use for 60 years, and which prior to the appearance of Nokol had never been considered successful for home heating. These methods are no different today from what they were in the past. YOU HAVE READ this, W HEN if you want to know the technical rea- sons for the success and uniqueness of Nokol, then read the technical description to the left. But what interests you is not how it is achieved but the result. "PLACE US' IN A SUNLIT CORNER" By RABBI MOSES FISCHER A pious rabbi, the Talmud relates us, was wont to clot his daily devotion with the fervent supplication: "Be Thy will, 0 Lord, that we be placed in a sunlit and bright corner and not in a dark, obscure, unknown nook " The effusion of a rabbi many centuries ago, in an ag ■ and in conditions totally different from ours, expressed also in terse, concise language the thoughts, desires, yearning, and longings of the faithful Jew whose interests are not entirely absorbed, even in the high festivals, by the ebbing and flowing tide of his personal fortune but whose concern and loving regard reaches out and dwells upon matter, affecting the well-being of Israel at large of, as the sainted Dr. Schechter coined the phrase, of "Chabolu Israel." For "a bright and sunlit corner," for a "spot under the rays of the light-giving and life-sustaining world orb, the sun," the heart of the Jews aches, longs and prays on the threshold of each new year as it emerges from the womb of time. For "a spot under the sun," not in its German versiun meaning the martial conquest and subduance of the earth : not in its British interpretation signifying the sole rule of the oceans; the Jew prays and yearns for a spot under the sun in its Jewish term, implying first and last the King- dom of God, the Brotherhood of Man. the Rule of the Law of Love, Justice and Righteousness. The sanctification and consecration of human life, lifting it into the realm of spirituality, purity and altruism. Hark, the tones of the Shofar! With majestic earnest- ness and seriousness they reverberate the spaces of Israel's hallowed synagogues and houses of worship. They an- nounce with their thrill and thunder the supremacy and sublimity of the Divine rule, providence and guidance. "The Lord is our king, the Lord our lawgiver, the Lord our helper." The correlatories, the natural and inevitable ef- fects of our faith and belief of a Divine Intelligence creat- ing, sustaining and ruling the universe, are: The moral freedom and spirituality of man on the one, the good will righteous conduct of each and every human being created in the Divine Image toward his fellowman of whatever race and nationality, on the ()tiler hand ;" "for a corner of light and sunshine" in order to work out in its own soul and to transform on its own soil and social order his grand ideals and religious truths into standards and forces of collective and individual life and conduct that the Jew prays, pleads, pours its soul forth on Rosh Hashonah. But it is not for the realization and actualization of its religious ideals alone that the Jew invokes the Divine bless- ing on the greatest of days in its annual calendar. It is also for Israel as a people, as a nation, as a member of the family of nations, that the Jew prays for a corner of light, "for a spot under the sun," for air, freedom and virility as the very essential conditions of a wholesome normal and self-unfolding life for the Jewish people. It is only too long that Israel sorely misses a sunlit, light-suffused corner for its rule on Zion Thy holy mountain. May Thou, 0 Lord, give and grant appreciation, glory and honor to Thy peo- ple. How did the rabbi pray? "May it be out fortune that we be placed in a "light sunlit space" and not in a dingy, dark corner." True to the ancient national characteristic to the world- view and life-conception which taught the Jew not to heal with contempt the body, the physical part of his being, but to look upon it as equal partner in the structure of his life even on this day of spiritual revival, the Jew does not detach himself from the human element in him; he does not overlook the justified needs and wants of the body. The Jew learned from the dim inception and beginning of his history to esteem and to lay due emphasis upon the development and unfoldment of his body. The adage, "Cleanliness is next to holiness," or "In a wholesome body alone lives a wholesome soul," had nothing new for the Jew. His sages taught him. "The Torah was not given to Angels but to men." The ideal of Israel was therefore not the "angelic" man deprived of all human qualities but the harmoniously, ideally developed and cultured man. Therefore the New Year's greeting for "a happy, sweet year." Therefore a prayer for a long life "to be inscribed in the Book of life." Therefore supplications for "the dew of the heaven and the fatness of the earth," for the bless- ing of womb and breast, for a bright, blessed home and to comity for body and soul. God grant it habitation, that Israel is in sore need of a firm fixed ground beneath his feet; a ground unshaken and unmoved by each storm of history by the rage and fury of the nations clashing each against the other. It is but too long that Israel became figuratively and actually the wanderer of the age, "the tribe of fleeting feet," that the multitudes of Jacob were and are crowded in "obscure dark nooks" in the mellows of the Mohammedan, in the spiritual social and geograph- ical ghettos of the Christian countries. It is too long that the Jew sickens, suffers, languishes in the want of the chief requisites of life. There is no port or harbor but over- crowded with the unfortunate seed of Abraham in the quest of search of that natural possession which is even the blessed gift of a bird: of a home. No boat is sailing on the highways of nations on the ocean but some of its cargo consists in transporting the children of Israel to some new and distant unknown country where they are not wanted, where their presence will soon tend to create and foment hatred. "The nook of darkness" substitutes in the life of Israel "the corner of light." Whereas formerly was said' "There was light in all the habitations of Israel," at the present the phrase descriptive of the Jews is the dark- ness which envelops them becomes thicker and more in- tense. It is not natural that the Jew shall pray on Rosh Hashonah that the ancient prophecies may be fulfilled, that his feet may land on a hosptiable shore, that he may finally arrive "to his rest and heritage." Hark! Listen! The Jew prays: "May Thou, 0 Lord, grant it." YOU HAVE MADE UP your mind A your home will be oil heated in the near future. You are faced with a definite choice.
