} ears for Palestine, as compared
'with similar funds gathered for
Jewish relief in Europe.
Mr. Rothenberg finds that since
the launching of the Keren Ilaye-
sod in 1921, a total of $31,000,000
in public funds has been gathered
for Palestine.
During the same time, a total
of 100 millions was gathered for
European Jewish relief, including
Russia.
What have we to show for the
$100,000,000? Opinions will dif-
fer, but I don't believe anyone
will dispute that we have much
more to show for the $31,000,000
which was spent for Palestine.

dinal virtues held up for the
admiration of mankind.
Shabuoth expresses beauti-
fully the Jewish ideal that bod-
ily freedom, obtained by the
flight from Egypt, is of little
value unless accompanied by
the spiritual freedom attained
through the law. Reform Juda-
ism has added to the impress-
iveneas of the holiday by mak-
ing it confirmation day for the
synagogue youth.
The agricultural aspects and
symbolism of Shabuoth are obvi-
ous, and the books of the Bible
give the details the celebration
required.
Shabuoth, the Feast of Weeks,
marked the end of the grain
harvest, just as the Feast of
Tabernacles, late in summer,
marks the end of the fruit har-
vest.
All males, according to the
Old Testament, were to dance
before the altar, bringing to the
sanctuary "the first fruits of
the wheat harvest, the first
fruits of thy labors, which thou
host sown in the field." Wor- I
shippers were also commanded
to bring two loaves of bread
baked according to a definite
formula, which were to be
waved before the altar. Sacri-
fices of animals were also en-
joined upon the celebrants and
work was forbidden.

Because the law was given to
the Jews on Shabuoth, rabbini-
cal authorities in the Diaspora
urged that the day be made
"a most enjoyable holy day."
A popular custom is to eat dairy
foods and cheese cakes in honor
of the day. A meat meal cus-
tomarily follows the dairy meal.
The two meals represent the
two loaves of bread formerly
offered at the Temple celebra-
tion.

Since the fall of the second
temple Diaspora Jewry has
celebrated Shabuoth as "Zman
Mattan Torahsenu"—the day of
the giving of our law.
In the sixteenth century, the
Cabalists, who attached great
significance to the festival, ar-
ranged a special reading of ex-
cerpts from all the books of
the Bible and the Mishnah. They
considered this reading tanta-
mount to the reading and ap-
proval of the whole Jewish law.
