in Chicago.

Chicago Jewry is now having as its

guest a distinguished sojourner in the
person of Dr. Abraham S. Waldstein,
who is a great Hebrew writer and
scholar and a noted authority on lie-
brew lexicography. Mr. Waldstein is
a product of three continents. His
early Hebrew education was received
in Eastern Europe, but his secular
education he acquired in America, hay-
ing graduated from Harvard College
and from the graduate school of Col-
umhia University (where he wrote his
thesis on the development of modern
Hebrew literature.) For the past 13
years, however, he taught at the fa-
mous Hebrew High School "lierzliah"
at Tel-Aviv, Palestine. He is also a
frequent contributor to Hebrew per-
iodicals, and he is the author of lie-
English-Hebrew
brew-English and
dictionaries which are used extensive-
ly the world over. Dr. Waltistein is
now in this country on a leave of fib-
sense for the purpose of engaging in
research work in the department of so-
ciology at the University of Chicago.

The project outlined in this article

took shape during the course of my
student days when I would browse
about the books on the open shelves
in the reading rooms of several uni-
versities where books were reserved
for various courses. Here were books
on history, anthropology, language,
philosophy, ethnology,
economics,
etc., etc. and all civilized nations
were represented in these studies—
all nations but one; and it is easy to
guess which group was the one to be

to disprove the theories of the Nordo-

In my mental survey of 150 Rani-

of the president and the dean of that
institution, I found the highest score
in a series of comprehension tests, in.
