Throughout his Hfe time he has been a public-spirited citizen and an ardent champion of clean politics. Some, of the leading Jews of the city of Columbus, among them Joseph (Dad) Schonthal,,Edwin J. Schanfai'lJer, Alfred J. Kobacker, and A- M. Neu¬ stadt, have heartily endorsed his can¬ didacy ^r rc-clection. They realize that his good work in the past entitles him to the. respect and the support of all the people rcg^dless of race or creed. . , Sir. Lamon worked in the office of Probate Judge Homer C Bostwick for six years, and left that Oflicc to take up.his duties as Clerk of the Municipal Court, January 1, 1021 e has de¬ voted the entire four years to this of¬ fice and has served the public faithfully and efficiently. Also in this office he has CQ-opcratcd. to the fullest extent with the police department in the enforce¬ ment of the law. He promises to give th.e same service in the future as in the past. Mr. Laniott is aflfiliated with Juuia Lodge of Odd Fellows, the Masonic Or¬ der, the Moose, and the Eagles. It is interesting to note that he has been In¬ strumental in reducing court costs at police headquarters, and io establishing the splendid traffic bureau in Columbus. The recent very able picturlzation of Samuel Butler's ''The Way of All Flesh" was taken by Dr. Werne as the theme of his address.at the first Open Forum of the iSieaaon held last night at the Agudaith Achim Temple,. Discussion of the stbry, Rabbi Werne pointed out is especially; invited by the coincidence that the current Biblical por¬ tion, read in the Syii:iB:ogue this week is the source from whicli the title is drawn. The Rabbi sumntarized the book as de¬ picting the progressive deterioration of one who was yesterday a model charac¬ ter. He pointed out, however, a great discrepancy between ihe title and. the story in the fact that the author failed to account on rational ^rounds for the sudden collapse of' the liero's moral fibre. 'Tt is hardly prohabU," he said, "(hat a man of August Schilling's (the hero) character should so precipitouslybetrans¬ formed into a degenerate, and that, this is 'The Way of All Flesh', is an apology vvhich I for one cannot accept, "Experience as well as reason tells us that it is not the way of all flesh to fall prey to every temptation that chances along. The force must I't; overwhelm- '"gly great, or,the resistinH^, factor over¬ whelmingly weak, before we are willing to admit as spectacular a transformation as occurred in the person of August Schilling. If the author is of a similar opinion, his book certainly gives no evi¬ dence, of it Rather .we.are led to be¬ lieve that he throws the guilt on to nian's inherent weakness, because 'Man is Flesh, he is not to be judged.' "I can appreciate," said Rabbi Werne, "Faust's bargain with the devil., I can understand why Herslicle Dubrowner, in 'Gott, Mensch nnd Teufel' (God, Han and S<itan), allowed his desire for riches to get the better of him, but the transi tiori, from a trusted employe, a faithful husband and a loving father into a thief and a murderer, occurs all too abruptly to be the 'way of all flesh,' "The Russian poet Kekrassoff has handled a similar theme in.'Maslia' with marked contrast to the work of Butler. Here the 'way of all flesh' is expressed in' unshaken fidelity and super-human perseverance through a succession of suf¬ ferings and misunderstandings which fall to the lot of the hero in the story. Nek- rassoff's character (Masha's husband)' breaks under the strain, of physical and not moral weakness. His character re mains unsmirched to do him honor at his death. "'True," the Rabbi concluded, "the flesh is heir to sin, and the path of life is be¬ set with stumbling blocks; nevertheless, it is the way of all flesh to meet the.difii- culties of life squarely, to try to over¬ come them. For in tlie last analysis, man's distinction on this earth is his ability to surmount difficulties. It is this more tlian any other characteristic, that makes him tower above the lower animals. It is undoubtedly this that we should consider the *Way of All Flesh'.' L'KO KATX Mr., Katz, aged 52, passed away at Grant Hospital- last Thursday night, Oc¬ tober '27th, following ahcart attack.
