Emerson's Law of Compensation, says the New Yurk World:

John Langley has a brogue like a breath from Erin itself, and
for 10 years he has run a kosher poultry market in Long Island City.
He employs n rabbi to slaughter the birds and all the other help is
Irish. When questioned regarding the incongruity of this one of the
employes answered: "Sure, and don't the Jews on the East Side
sell crucifixes from push carts "

Seems reasonable, doesn't it?
It seems to me it's up to the Jews of the rest of the world to protest
with all the vigor and resources at their command against the inhuman
persecution by the Jewish section of the Russian Communist party of the
Zionists in Russia. If we are to believe the reports that reach us, the
Zionists are being arrested in such numbers that it is impossible to keep
track of them and then the victims are immediately exiled to Siberia. And
according to a wireless dispatch to the Christian Science Monitor, they are
not merely exiled to Siberia, but the most northern isolated points are
chosen for these prisoners. The distress due to the terrible cold is almost
beyond endurance. It seems to be, if the facts are as represented in these
messages, the most brutalizing attempt of a political group to exterminate,
literally exterminate those whose ideas are not in harmony with theirs. It

The fact is that the colonists of Tel

The outstanding difference between
Mishmar and Tel Chai, the two cha-
lutzim colonies of Russia, is that the
former is intensely Zionistic, being
ready to sacrifice even communist
principles just to further the national
cause. Tel Chai will follow Zionism
as long as not one iota of its commun-
istic principles is attacked. These
two types of colonies, thoroughly in-

were viewed with pity by the herd. The newspapers and magazines did
their part. They suggested caution, but they suggested it rather apolo-1
getically—even they seemed to be under the influence of the herd instinct.
Now, when the hysteria has subsided; in the cold gray dawn of the
morning after—the newspapers are beginning to till their columns with
Florida gloom instead of Florida boom. But it comes too late. The vic-
tims of the herd-madness are legion. Lives have been snuffed out. Life-
time savings have been swept away. Dreams have proved idle. Bubbles
have burst. And poor old Florida sits with her head tied up and doesn't

I was amused to see a prominent magazine, in its effort to attract atten-
tion to its advertisement inn daily newspaper, use this startling headline:
"Isaiah Couldn't See the Flappers Either." It was an effort to prove that
flappers are quite ancient—historically speaking. This particular statement
of Isaiah's has been used for many purposes, but invoking it to prove the
existence of "flappers is a new one—though I confess there is a striking
similarity between the young ladies referred to by the prophet and many
who are in our midst" in the year 1927:

re haughty Mill walk with
Because the daughters
stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they
go . . • . the Lord will take away the bravery of their tinkling
ornaments. . . . • The chains, and the bracelets, and the mufflers,
the bonnets, the ornaments of the legs, the headbands, and the ear-
rings, the rings, the nose jewels, the changeable suits of apparel,
and the mantles, and the wimples, and the crisping pins, and the
glasses, and the fine linen, and the hoods and the veils

Yes, friends, it looks very familiar. What is a wimple? Tennyson once
referred to a wimple in this fashion:

From beneath her gathered wimple
Glancing with black-beaded eyes.

Strange that Isaiah should inveigh against a wimple. It seems to me
a very innocent article of apparel. Merely a cloth worn about the head
and fastened under the neck, sort of nun-fashion. Which is rather a good
reason why the 1927 flappers don't use them.

It's really a shame to bother Roumanian Minister ('retziano with com-
plaints about anti-Jewish outrages in Roumania. There is really nothing
to it. Just a lot of Bolshevik propaganda. The Jews haven't a single cause
for complaint. Of course, here and there some slight misunderstandings
have arisen, just a little good-natured rough-house, so to speak. I cannot
recall of a single incident that calls for the protest with possibly the ex-
ception of a few trifles:

III Discriminating against Jewish students in Roumanian uni-
versities; (2) political discrimination directed against representatives
in the Roumanian parliament; (3) physical assaults upon Jews, in-
cluding beatings of Jewish students, desecrating Jewish synagogues
and cemeteries, bombing Jewish homes, smashing Jewish shopkeep-
ers' windows, destroying their stocks, throwing Jewish passengers
from moving railroad trains and finally the murder of the Jewish
student Falik, who was shot to death in a courtroom; and here and
there a small pogrom.

So you see, dear friends, how unfair it is to bother such a busy man
as the Roumanian minister to the United States with such unimportant
matters.

I noticed the other day where the distribution of the proceeds of the
business of the famcus Dreicer & Co. IVIIA made according to the terms
of the will of the founder, who died in 1921. When I saw the announce.
I idly speculated whether the great pearl experts and jewelers are
Jews. My question was answered in an issue of Time and it was so inter-
estingly answered that I ant sure you will like to read a pan of it:

To the post-war U. S. of the 70's came one Jacob Dreicer, a
young pop-eyed Polish Jew. his ear-locks but recently sheared off
his pious head. A sterner immigration guard would have suspected
him of exopthalmic goitre On the inside of his innermost
shirt he had sewed little velvet sacks and mach little velvet sack held
a pearl. He knew pearls and emeralds, rubies and sapphires. In a
way he knew diamonds, too, but he (lid not like them, least of all
when he saw them wired on the stomacher of the Manhattan dame
of a Civil War profiteer. And he (lid love pearls; liked to caress
them against his cheek. Ile knew where he could get them. They
were sewed on the bridal finery of Jewish girls in Poland; they were
beaded on the silk and velvet covers of the Blessed Scroll of Laws in
synagogues. Cossacks brought pearls to the Polish Jews; carried
them from beyond the Caucasians, from Bukhara. and Tiflis and
Bagdad; traded them to Jews for prized utensils. But these Ameri-
cans, sports of war and wealth, knew nothing of pearls—only the
jangling of diamonds. Jacob Dreicer rented a basement room,
sorted his pearls, graded them, matched them into finest necklaces.

And from that small beginning grew the internationally famed jewel

house of Dreicer.

What a metropolitan journal says about night clubs in New York ap-
plies with equal effectiveness to those who stupify their senses, abuse their
stomachs and insult their own intelligence in trying to see how nonsensically
they can welcome a new year in their lives. Comparisons may be odorous,
but one thing that even our enemies must admit in favor of the Jew and
that is he ushers in his New Year in a self-respecting manner, one in keep-
ing with the importance and the dignity of the event. Says the journal
in question:

the night clubs becomes apparent. Their chief sin is not that they
are immoral but simply that they are a swindle. When an average
check foots up to $47.50 it is obvious that something is wrong some-
where. An evening of had liquor, cheap vaudeville and artificial
gayety is not worth $47.50. It is not worth 47 cents. The man who
spends his money for such things, as our reporter says, is a sucker.
