A volume of Houilini's love letters to his wife will soon he published. It testi¬ fies to an abiding affection for one wo¬ man, which is not frequently paralleled. Every day, when away from her, Hou¬ dini sent his wife a letter, it appears. Sometimes, he wrote her as many as six in one day. How They Met It has been generally held that mar¬ riage between Jew and non-Jew does not generally take the form of happy unions. Certainly, this generalization did not ap¬ ply in the case of Harry Houdini and his wife. Perhaps, it is one of those ex¬ ceptions which prove the rule. Houdini met his wife in the early days of his career while giving a performance in Brooklyn. She was sitting in the front row of the show hall, watching his tricks, when he dropped some acid out of a tube which he was using. JSo clumsy," .^aid the girl's mother. Dont listen to mother—I think you are wonderful," said the girl. "I think you arc wonderful too, plied Houdini. He Married Five Thousand Perhaps more bachelors ought to try spilling acids. There are other ways, though. When yon are in Brooklyn, drop around to see^ Louis Rubin. He has engineered the marriages, it is said, of more than 5.00O couples, and he hasn't spilled any acid yet. "Most df my five thousand married," he says, "are happy and very few di¬ vorced tor my kind of marriage is almost a guarantee against unhappiness." LoTe and Lticre What is his kind of marriage? Here IS his explanation. "A thorough knowl¬ edge of each other's background, a clear understanding of how much money each possesses and what future opportunities for wealth are open. This is more im¬ portant than romance. Love? That comes later, if there is enough to cat." Rubin maintains that the day when the young woman sought a professional man as her mate has passed. She now wants the business man. • Money seems to cover a multitude of sins. But one shouldn't makiS any too broad geiieralization from the experiences of a marriage broker. After all, people of greater intelligence do not consult SCriadchans. We prefer the method of finding some interesting girl and spilling a little acid on her clothes. Ring for Postal! But there are a thousand different methods. Take the- case o( ray distin¬ guished confrere. Professor Bernard Postal, who is being wedded this day to Miss Margaret Selkowitz of Union City, New Jersey. .The bride, in this case, never saw Ber- nie handling any acids. And Bernie really thinks that when people say schadchcn" (shotgun) they mean a rifle. That's liow much he knows about mar¬ riage brokerage. How was it accomplished ? All very simple. One day, Miss Selkowitz happened to visit the Jewish Telegraphic Agency. Sitting for a while in Mr. Postal's of¬ fice, she saw Miss Kassell rush in with the news that six manuscripts intended for release within an hour, could not be found. "Excuse me fpr a few minutes," said Mr. Postal. To make a long story short before the hour was up, Mr. Postal had six fresh articles done. ' "How do you do it so fast?" queried Miss Selkowitz.

Clara Bow, it appears, is destined to have a Jewish chasan. Fighters Like Peace Talking about Maxie Rosenbloom re¬ minds us of something else. Maxie, it is said, has one trait, which he shares with that other great fighter, Jack Demp- sey. And that is, both of them would walk a mile to avoid a real personal fight. I do not mean that either of them are afraid. They could easily make mashed meat out of their probable foes, but both seem tp utterly loathe a personal quarrel, and will do anything to avoid one. Just souls that are peaceable by nature. Strange paradox, on the surface! And yet not so strange. The fellow who likes to fi_ght, who is always carrying a chip on his shoulder is generally simply a per¬ son with an inferiority complex. , His faith in his own ego is so tenuous that he feels he must resent anything in which there is the slightest suspicion of attack.

Temple Brother¬ hood Looking Forward to a Big Year An Elaborate Program For The Entire Season Is Being Mapped Out By Oflicers Of Organi¬ zation Six meetings instead of the usual four will be held tjjis coming year under the auspices of the Bryden Road Temple Brotherhood, it was announced this week by Allan Tarshish, president, after meeting of the board held at the Lazarus Tea Room last Monday noon. , Four of these meetings will be dinner aflfairs ahd two will be evening programs open tp the general public, because of the interesting character of the programs. The tentative arrangements of the program committee are to hold as one meeting a Father, Son, Mother, Daughter dinner program; also a religious forum in which will participate a Catholic rep¬ resentative, a Protestant, a Christian Scientist, and a Spiritualist. Another program will comprise a debate on a timely question with two outstanding prominent opponents.

This is the beginning of a 'forum series which will be enlarged as years go by. Further news of the Brotherhood will be issued next week in the Chronicle. Maximilian Mitnitzky the program for this concert togethci with Cantor Emil Rosen of Brooklyn, N, Y. ¦ The arrangements committee has al¬ ready sold over 200 tickets. A good many choice scats are stilt available at Wurlitzer's Music Store, 144 S. High Street; Kroll's Delicatessen, 500 E. Ful¬ ton Street, Solove's'Hardware Store, 601 E. Livingston Avenue, and at the studio have large followings in this section of the state, an extraordinarily'big crowd is expected. As Chronicle readers well know, Mit¬ nitzky is an accomplished pianist and has appeared in concerts jn various parts of the country, everywhere evoking uni¬ versal acclaim. ¦ Cantor Rosen has a PORTLAND, OREGON — If the opinion of experienced political observers here means anything, a Jew may be the next governor of Oregon. Julius Meier, Portland merchant and civic worker, was recently nominated as an independent candidate 9.t a monster mass meeting of liberals and" those Republicans who nom¬ inated the late George W. Joseph as the Republican candidate in the May primaries. Meier was also a candidate in the primaries but came in a close sec¬ ond to his fripnd, Joseph. The election of Meier, prominent in Jewish affairs, as governor, would climax a long succession of important political officers held by Jews in Oregon. Should he be elected in November he would be the first Jew elected governor of a state since Moses Alexander was elected gov¬ ernor of Idaho for a second term in ISIS. With a Jewish population of about 20,- 000 according to the last available statis¬ tics, Oregon has had many important Jewish political figures. Joseph Simon, former United States senator, began a political career in: 1877 that ran the gamut from councilman to the United States seriate. ' In the interim, he was a member of the state senate for 18 years and also president of that body. Solomon Hirsch, later, U. S. ministei to Turkey, was both speaker of the as- seiribly and president of the senate. He was also the Republican candidate for the United States senate in 1886. Later he was mayor of Portland. In 1914 Phillip \\fasserman was also mayor of Portland, heing succeeded by Bernard Goldsmith. Ben Selling was president of the state senate and the Republican nominee for the United States senate in 1912. In 1915 he returned to the state legislature and was made speaker.) Louis Flcischner was state treasurer in 1803. Bearing in mind the state-wide dis¬ satisfaction with the.Hoover administra¬ tion and the general revolt against the Republican political machine, it appears that the prognosticatiqns of the political soothsayers Iwve considerable basis in fact, and when next election day rolls around Julius Meter of Portland may well find himself governor of Oregon. Hadassah Year Book Will Reach You on Rosh Hashonah Cantor Emil Rosen large following in the great metropolis from which he hails and is also well known in Columbus. He possesses a beautiful tenor voice and has been classed ¦with BUcli famous cantors as Kwartin, Hcrschmaii, and Rosenblatt. The forthcoming concert will be a conglomeration of liturgical and classi¬ cal music. It is understood that the artists will play several request numbers. All Chronicle readers are urged to se- of Mr. Mitnitzky. Being that both men]cure their tickets at once. LEAGUE COUNCIL TO MEET SEPTEMBER 8 ^ GENEVA—J. T. A.—In view of the small agenda the Council of the League of Nations has postponed its meeting from September 5 to September 8. $500,000 EXPORT HOUSE TO BE ESTABLISHED IN PALESTINE JERUSALEM—An exi>ort house with a capital of $500,000 will be established in Palestine by the noted exporters, Lan¬ dau Brothers of London and South Af¬ rica, if Palestine industrialists comply with conditions which would make the proposed export house a profitable un¬ dertaking. The proposal was reported during a meeting of industrialists at which M. Sheinkar described the interest which South 'African Jews h^ve in products emanating from Palestine. At the same meeting it was resolved to send a mes¬ sage of thanks to Vladimir Jabotinsky, Revisionist leader, who on his recent tour through South Africa, urged the use of Palestine products. General Meeting of the Agu¬ dath Achim on Sunday Afternoon The last general meeting of the year of the Congregation Agudath Achim will be held on Sunday, August 31st, 1030, at 2 p. m, at the synagogue. The meeting will start promptly, so that members de¬ siring to attend the B'nai B'rith picnic can do so. President Lakin urges all members to be present at the meeting.

The year book will go to press the first week of September. Y. M. H. A. to Hold Its First Meeting of Season on Tuesday The Young Men's Hebrew Association of Columbus will hold its lirst nieetinE^ o( the year Tuesday evening at the Schonthal Center, 555 E. Rich Street. President Saul Levy and his associ¬ ates have planned a program of many activities for the coming year. Football games with out-of-town teams, debating teams, and fhe annual Y. M. H. A. mu¬ sical revue are among the activities planned. All members of the Y. M, H. A. are urged to attend this meeting. CINCINNATI, OHIO —Perhaps the least known of B'nai B'rith activities is the work done by that organization at the Mayo Clinic and the Mayq Founda¬ tion at Rochester, Minn., through Miss Gertrude S. Silverman, its fnll-time worker there. Alfred M. Cohen, inter¬ national president of B'nai B'rith, pic¬ tures the work of the Order at the clinic as follows: "Between five and ten thousand Jews and Jewesses present themselves annually as patients at the Mayo Clinic. They come from all sta¬ tions in life. Many come in sheer des¬ peration and without means., "Rochester's Jewish population is mea¬ ger and unable to cope with a situation so grave and complicated. Besides, the problem is national and not local because patients come from every section of the country.. The clinic claimed that it had been imposed upon quite frequently by Jewish patients as well as by a few other groups and for that reason insisted upon a pay¬ ment in advance from these classes of patients. In accordance with an' agree¬ ment previously arrived at, within a week after the appointment of the full-time ; B'nai B'rith worker, fhe rule requiring a deposit from Jewish patients was abol¬ ished. Bless the Name "Our worker's desk occupies a. space in the general reception room. It carries the nahie B'nai B'rith and a legion of sick people bless that name for what it means to them. Her kindly ministrations to patients who, far away from home and kindred, stand in need of friendly offices, have completely relieyedTa situation that previously had threatened to become acute." Miss Gertrude S. Silverman,' the trained w'brker in charge of the B'nai B'rith office at the Mayo Clinic, points out that it is, of course, impossible for this office to act as a relief-Riving agency ior the thousands o* patients who come there each year. T'ne B'nai B'rith work is mainly that of interpretation of the patient's case to the physician and, in turn, the interpretation of the diagnosis as weil as the general situation to the patient. With Social Service Deiftrtmcnt We arc affiliated with the social serv¬ ice department of the clinic and work as any other social agency with the home . organizations which are responsible for their patients. In addition to the medical, social, case work with Jewish patients ^ which this necessitates, we do a great deal of friendly visiting both in the clinic and in the hospital. We act as official hostess to Jewry coming to the clinic and act as advisor to those who need guidance in entering a strange and large institution. : "Many piersons are under the impres¬ sion that the clinic is a combination of hospital and boarding house and think that all that is necessary for them to do is to get to Rochester and that they wil) be taken care of completely even to the extent of defraying their railway ex¬ penses home. Such impressions shoulfl be corrected and each patient should rec¬ ognize his own responsibility before com^ ing here." An appreciation of the work which B'nai B'rith is doing at Rochester is voiced in a letter received by the Order from an administrative officer at the clinic:^— Results Are Encouraging We cannot speak too highly of the manner in which your representative is conducting the work; the results are most encouraging. A number of frater¬ nal orders maintain in Rochester social secretaries to minister to the members of their orders and relatives who are. pa¬ tients at the clinic. The B'nai B'rith is the only organiza¬ tion to whom the clinic allots oflice space in the clinic building and the arrange¬ ment with them is considerably more in¬ clusive than with any of the other or¬ ders. The results obtained have been such that we are very anxious that this work be continued. We .are convinced that the plan furnishes a real opportunity to render a worth-while service." ROUMANIAN KING IS CON S1DERIN6 MORGANATIC MARRIAGE WrTH MME. lUPESCU LONDON—J. T. A.—King Carol of Roumania is seriously considering a mor¬ ganatic marriage with Madame Lupescu, Jewess, according to the German corre¬ spondent of the London Daily Mail.

Julius Meier, Portland merchant and civic worker, was recently nominated as an independent candidate 9.t a monster mass meeting of liberals and" those Republicans who nom¬ inated the late George W. Joseph as the Republican candidate in the May primaries. Meier was also a candidate in the primaries but came in a close sec¬ ond to his fripnd, Joseph. The election of Meier, prominent in Jewish affairs, as governor, would climax a long succession of important political officers held by Jews in Oregon. Should he be elected in November he would be the first Jew elected governor of a state since Moses Alexander was elected gov¬ ernor of Idaho for a second term in ISIS. With a Jewish population of about 20,- 000 according to the last available statis¬ tics, Oregon has had many important Jewish political figures. Joseph Simon, former United States senator, began a political career in: 1877 that ran the gamut from councilman to the United States seriate. ' In the interim, he was a member of the state senate for 18 years and also president of that body. Solomon Hirsch, later, U. S. ministei to Turkey, was both speaker of the as- seiribly and president of the senate. He was also the Republican candidate for the United States senate in 1886. Later he was mayor of Portland. In 1914 Phillip \\fasserman was also mayor of Portland, heing succeeded by Bernard Goldsmith. Ben Selling was president of the state senate and the Republican nominee for the United States senate in 1912. In 1915 he returned to the state legislature and was made speaker.) Louis Flcischner was state treasurer in 1803. Bearing in mind the state-wide dis¬ satisfaction with the.Hoover administra¬ tion and the general revolt against the Republican political machine, it appears that the prognosticatiqns of the political soothsayers Iwve considerable basis in fact, and when next election day rolls around Julius Meter of Portland may well find himself governor of Oregon.

CINCINNATI, OHIO —Perhaps the least known of B'nai B'rith activities is the work done by that organization at the Mayo Clinic and the Mayq Founda¬ tion at Rochester, Minn., through Miss Gertrude S. Silverman, its fnll-time worker there. Alfred M. Cohen, inter¬ national president of B'nai B'rith, pic¬ tures the work of the Order at the clinic as follows: "Between five and ten thousand Jews and Jewesses present themselves annually as patients at the Mayo Clinic. They come from all sta¬ tions in life. Many come in sheer des¬ peration and without means., "Rochester's Jewish population is mea¬ ger and unable to cope with a situation so grave and complicated. Besides, the problem is national and not local because patients come from every section of the country.. The clinic claimed that it had been imposed upon quite frequently by Jewish patients as well as by a few other groups and for that reason insisted upon a pay¬ ment in advance from these classes of patients. In accordance with an' agree¬ ment previously arrived at, within a week after the appointment of the full-time ; B'nai B'rith worker, fhe rule requiring a deposit from Jewish patients was abol¬ ished. Bless the Name "Our worker's desk occupies a. space in the general reception room. It carries the nahie B'nai B'rith and a legion of sick people bless that name for what it means to them. Her kindly ministrations to patients who, far away from home and kindred, stand in need of friendly offices, have completely relieyedTa situation that previously had threatened to become acute." Miss Gertrude S. Silverman,' the trained w'brker in charge of the B'nai B'rith office at the Mayo Clinic, points out that it is, of course, impossible for this office to act as a relief-Riving agency ior the thousands o* patients who come there each year. T'ne B'nai B'rith work is mainly that of interpretation of the patient's case to the physician and, in turn, the interpretation of the diagnosis as weil as the general situation to the patient. With Social Service Deiftrtmcnt We arc affiliated with the social serv¬ ice department of the clinic and work as any other social agency with the home . organizations which are responsible for their patients. In addition to the medical, social, case work with Jewish patients ^ which this necessitates, we do a great deal of friendly visiting both in the clinic and in the hospital. We act as official hostess to Jewry coming to the clinic and act as advisor to those who need guidance in entering a strange and large institution. : "Many piersons are under the impres¬ sion that the clinic is a combination of hospital and boarding house and think that all that is necessary for them to do is to get to Rochester and that they wil) be taken care of completely even to the extent of defraying their railway ex¬ penses home. Such impressions shoulfl be corrected and each patient should rec¬ ognize his own responsibility before com^ ing here." An appreciation of the work which B'nai B'rith is doing at Rochester is voiced in a letter received by the Order from an administrative officer at the clinic:^— Results Are Encouraging We cannot speak too highly of the manner in which your representative is conducting the work; the results are most encouraging. A number of frater¬ nal orders maintain in Rochester social secretaries to minister to the members of their orders and relatives who are. pa¬ tients at the clinic. The B'nai B'rith is the only organiza¬ tion to whom the clinic allots oflice space in the clinic building and the arrange¬ ment with them is considerably more in¬ clusive than with any of the other or¬ ders. The results obtained have been such that we are very anxious that this work be continued. We .are convinced that the plan furnishes a real opportunity to render a worth-while service."
