ception, the couple left for a

When a Suit Cost $3.50

When Rosenbloom's in Sher-
brooks, Quebec, recently cele-
brated its 60th anniversary,
people recalled that the store
was established in 1898 by Jo-
seph Rosenbloom, the father of
the present head, Lewis Rosen-
bloom. Sherbrooks then had a
population of 10,470. Rosen-
bloom's at that time had to
appeal to the City Council for
permission to hang up the first
electric sign in town. At that
time stores kept men's suits in
piles on tables with the trous-
ers, vests, and coats in separate
places. $3.50 was then the aver-
age price of a man's suit.

By aspiring to secularism, by
I used to talk to you (from separating the national idea

Behind the Green Door) before
Henri came to America. Now
you are all well acquainted
with him, and know what a
fine hair stylist he is.
Henri and I have so many
wonderful ideas for your hair
beauty, comfort, and conveni-
ence, that we are opening our
own salon in the near future.
(More news on that later.)
In the meantime we have
moved to the beautiful EARLY
AMERICAN Decorated Salon
of LAURA KERNES, which is
located at 20092 Livernois, near
Chippewa, Phone, UN 4-9786.
Janet, our little redhead, who
has also been with us for
several years, will also be on
hand to greet you.
Looking forward . to seeing

you.

(Adv.J

from religion, we aim only to
negate the supremacy of re-
ligion but not to eliminate it
from the storehouse of national
cultural treasures. If we wish
to preserve Judaism as a cul-
tural-historical type of nation,
we must realize that the re-
ligion of Judaism is one of the
integral foundations of national
culture and that any one who
seeks to destroy it undermines
the very basis of national exis-
tence. Between us and the or-
thodox Jews there is only this
difference: they recognize a tra-
ditional Judaism, the forms of
which were set from the begin-
ning for all eternity, while we
believe in an evolutionary Juda-
ism in which new and old forms
are always being assumed or
discarded and which adjusts it-
self to new cultural conditions.

Role of Jews in
Medicine Revealed
in Hebrew Journal

The current issue of the semi-
annual Hebrew Medical Jour-
nal, edited by Moses Einhorn,
of New York, contains a num-
ber of articles which stress the
Jewish role in medicine through-
out the ages. With this issue
the journal concludes the 32nd
year of its existence.
In the section "Historical
Medicine," Dr. Benjamin Lee
Gordon discusses medical juris-
prudence in Hebrew culture
and compares it with that pre-
vailing in Babylonian, Greek,
Roman and Medieval cultures.
In an article entitled "Med-
icine, Judaism and the He-
brew Language," Dr. Asher
Goldstein points out that
medicine became an integral
part of Jewish life and that
the Mosaic Law may be con-
sidered t h e foundation of
prophylactics. According to
the author medicine during
the Middle Ages was mainly
in the hands of two peoples,
the Arabs and the Jews. It
was the Jews who guarded
the medical heritage of man-
kind and it was through them
that Arab medicine became
known to the world. When
the Hebrew University in
Jerusalem was opened, many
doubted whether medicine
could be adequately taught in
the Hebrew language. Dr.
Goldstein notes, h o w e v e r,
that considerable progress
has already been made in
recent years in forming a
synthesis of Biblical, Talmud-
ical and Medical sources and
in coining new medical terms.
In the section "Talmud and-
Medicine," Dr. Jacob Rabin
surveys Talmudic folklore at
the beginning of the present
era and cites cures and prac-
tices prevalent at that time.
Dr. Noah Shapiro discusses
the subject of animal derived
spices and perfumes in Hebrew
sources.
Another feature in the cur-
rent issue is the essay by Dr.
Zussmann Muntner, on the his-
tory of medicine.
