A Hear Story
It is -1 variation of an old YicMish slory, but I've just heard it again—and at this time it sccins to me, iiarticularly apropos.
"You know," remarked Chayim to Bery], "I really ought to 'bench Gomel' (make li blessing for rescue from peril) now."
"And why ?" gestured Beryl, "Well," replied Chayim, "it's a long story, but I'll tell it quickly. It was get¬ ting dark. All about mc, I could see night falling. Yes, fallnig like a heavy snow. And here I was fioing througli the woods. And let nie tell you this was the real woods. The kind of woodg they have out in the West, where men arc men and woods arc woods. A real jungle. Tigers, Hons, woIvc&, , pranced and danced all through it.
"I soon saw that in the darkness of night, r would not be able to make my way, that if I did, some hyena might ' mistake rae for a meal. So I searched for some place, where I could abide the nght.
"Terrified, I walked soitly—and lo, imagine my pleasure, as I stumbled ainid the howling of the wild animals of prey on a small hut left over probably by some hunter., I could have fallen on my knees and tittered a prayer of thanks- . giving, but 1 had my new suit on and didn't want to dirty it. I went in. It was deliverance indeed. Nevertheless, it was very lonesome. My nearest ncigh-. bor. was a giant alligator, Avhose form 1 could perceive from the window of my hut. Jt was so lonely I could have gladly gone up and made friends even with this alligator, Init after all, I had no intro¬ duction, so I thought I had better not.. I am not a very forward, person.
"Yes, it was lonesome. No radio and the' only broadcasting was that of the wild beasts' calls. How I missed the afternoon paper. I decided thire and then.that in the future I would he much more respectful to my paper; I wouldn't wrap herring in it. I. would realize that it .constituted an integral portion of my daily enjoyment. As I sat thinking thus, I felt my bones ache. I concluded that I ¦ must be weary. There w'as one of those Murphy ih-tlie-wall beds ni the hut. I- -pu!led it out, and undrciistd myself and sat down on the bed. How lavished then that I coiild listen in to some bed time story—^you know the soothing kind about.the hear who bit off the nose of the little blue-eyed boy, the .kind that puts you in the peaceful mood for .sleep. I lit a cigarette for/a filial smoke before I said my night prayers. My iiiood was a very peaceful one. 1 could have voted for Hoover then.
"When all of a sudden, what stands before me? Well, in order not to excite you. for psychologists have proven that excitement engenders a poisonous secre¬ tion in'^thc blood, which is very harmful, let me tell, you quickly, it was a bear. Yes, a real, live. hear. I had undressed to go to sleep, so I was bare—and here was another bear. It wasn't so much that I was embarrassed at being caught so illtra-dishabille you unrlcr.stand. I was actually frightened. You can never tell.what's in a bear's mind. Women and elephants, they say. never forget. But bears forget everything, except their appetite. And with me weighing 150 pounds, and being in such good condition for I exercise every day at the Y, M. C. A., you can understand that I must have looked a jiiicy steak indeed to the bear. You see, I am trying to get.the bear's point of view. The truth of the matter is that most peoples' misunder¬ standings arise, because they fail to re¬ alize the other person's point of view. Nevertheless, I realized that this was no time for detailed analysis and discus¬ sion of delicate points. The first law of success is action. So I at once made up my mind that I would suspend the processes of protracted cerebration and become as U were a man .of action. Let peonle call me a Babbitt. What care I? "Fortunately, being a married man, I . had Iearne<l to think fast. So what did I do? I realized that all would be lost, if I lost my wits. So 1 said to myself —think hard or forevermore he silent. If I- could only get some plan. The Rus¬ sians have a five year plan, I kne\v. But the bear prohably wouldn't wait that long. All of a sudden, I smelled some wood - burning, I knew then that my brain mu.st have begun to think. And presto—T had a plan. T jumped on the bed, I knew the bear would follow me. In fact, I even invited it to follow me. The bear jumped nn the lied. Then X auickly jumped off the bed, and pushed the Murphy hed hack into the wall.
"The bear growle<l. 'Good-bye, bear,* I said, 'I bear you no ill will, but it was you or me, and if I let j'ou get me, who'll borrow money from my best friends?'
"With that I was off,' or rather I thought I was off, for tlie howling of the bear had attracted one of the biggest bear mobs that I had ever seen. I was disgusted. I thought the be.st thing for me to do was to run. .. So I ran as fast as I could. Imagine it—a whole flock of bears pursuing. What chance would I have? I ran and ran. Suddenly, I came to water, and plunged into it. The bears, thought I, will stop now. But did they? They did not. They dived into the Ivater after me—and to boot it all, in front of me, a giant crocodile opened its ghastly mouth, ready fo devour me. It was terrible, I tell you, terrible."
"Well,'* said Beryl, "how did you es¬ cape?"
"Well, to tell you the truth, the only thing that saved me," said Chayim, "was, it afterwards developed, that,the whole thing never transpired."

Were the world of parchment made, And every man a scribe by trade, To write the love of God above Would drain that ocean dry; Nor would the scroll Contain the whole,        ¦ Though stretched from sky to sky!" Ami he prays for the coming of that day when God's love will, fill the hearts of all.    On that blessed day every man wiir be an ideal Ben B'rith.

Floyd Faust, 1st Broad Street Church of Clirist; treas¬ urer. Dr. Walter N. James, director of the FlellowBhip House, O. S. U.
Following the, election, Dr. Calvin Standt, of Jlagdad, Iraq, gave a line talk on econoinic conditions in this far oft land. He is hi the United States on a visit. He told of the progress being made in this new land, "the cradle of civilization." Iraq has. just been recog¬ nized by the League of Nations as being free from Great Britain. "This make riiy country the newest in the world, Iie¬ ing only 2 days old at this time."
iProf, Willis Wisslcr addressed the league on "Trends in Economic Plan¬ ning." He stated, "planning is not new in the. United States although frowned on hy most business men. During the war the War Industries Board served efficiently and brought about greatly in¬ creased production in spite of the millions of people in non-productive war work in industry or in the Army." An open forum on planning followed his .talk.,
The league has already had six fine forums on economic topics of vital im- I>ortance. It is composed of a repre¬ sentative group of biisiiicss, professional and university men and wom^en, and rep¬ resentatives of labor groups and other civic organizations. , The purpose of the group is to serve as a forum where the fundamental economic problems and sug¬ gested solutions of our difficulties may be discussed freely and openly and also to stimulate interest in these vital prob¬ lems through public lectures, forums and debates, •

2nd
Fritz  Uchtenberg  Ib  Main  Speaker
At Gathering to Be Held Next
Thursday
Fritz Lichtenberg, prominent in com¬ munal affairs, and president of the Co¬ lumbus Community Fund, will be the main speaker at the annual meeting of the Jewish Welfare Federation and Her¬ mine Schonthal Center, Thursday, June 2nd, at 7 .-JiD P. M. at the centei", 555 East Rich Street,
Officers and Boards of Directors will
be elected for the two organizations at this meeting. E. J. Schanfarher, Allen Gundcrsheimer, and Dr. E, J. Gordon were apjiointed to serve as a nominating committee of the Jewish Welfare Fede¬ ration. Max Harmon, Mrs. Max Rieser and Samuel Weinfeld were appointed to serve as a nominating committee for the Hermine Schonthal Center Board.
Keen interest is being manifested in this election as representatives from the following organizations* are being added to the Jewish Welfare Federation Board: B'nai B'rith, Hadassah, Council of Jew¬ ish Women, Ezras Noshim, and Jewish Shelter House.
Never in our history has there been a tinic when the activities of our com- munajl organizations have been so needed. Today more thaii ever the Jewish Wel¬ fare Federation of every city in our country is being recognized as the unify¬ ing organization in American Jewry.
At the National Conference of JTewish Social Work, recently held in Philadel¬ phia, prominent laymen and professional social workers repeatedly slated that the Jewsh Welfare Federation is the strong¬ est organization and. one that has endured longer than all others..
In these trying times of physical and mental distress, unemployment, and ac¬ companying illness, the activities of the Federation in the departments of relief, social service and comnnim'ty service are being sought as iicver before in their his¬ tory.
To you, Columbus Jewry, the clarion call is being sounded. Show your com¬ munity spirit and your desire to serve hy your attendance at this annual meet¬ ing which will give you a survey of the past year's activities.    Let no individual
of onr community neglect this oppor¬ tunity to jiarticipate in our vital com¬ munal aflairs.
Confirmation    Exercises   at Agudath Achim Congrega¬ tion on June 12th
I .spoke in these cokiinns recently on racial pride.
I deplored the strained cfTorts of many of my young co-religionists to hide their racial origin and lamented over the.fact that many members of our faith consider Jewishness something to avoid and shun, yea, something of which to be ashamed.
That this reprehensible attitude is due tu rank ignorance was brought out clearly ill inv editorial and I concluded by an appea'l for more enlightenment among onr people regarding our people's history, its literature, its traditions, its ethics, its morals, and its contributions to the ad¬ vancement of civilization,
i(.   *   t   iii   *   *.
I would like to add at this lime this striking; point: that the movement known as. Zionisin has done splendid work in instilling among the masses of Jewry a love for Jewish culture and Jewish ideals with their accompanying spirit of noblesse tddsac Thanks to "the fine propaganda work of the Zionists we today have many native-born Americans who are very ap¬ preciative of their grand heritage and feel keenly the Jewish will-to-live and tu achieve. There are many communities in this land Where, untilthe gospel of Zionism reached them, Jewish life was at a very low ebb, assmiilation and inter¬ marriage were rife, and our ancestral faith and its traditions and ceremonials were relegated to the limbo of forgotten and forsaken tln'ngs.
Today in these seH-same communities a new spirit obtains: there are Jewish culture-clubs, community centers carry- , ing ou' activities of a distinctly Jewish. nature, synagogues which. exert - potent influences for good, and, most important of all, there arc daily Hebrew .Schools wiicre our boys and girls of school age . arc given instruction in the Bible, He¬ brew Literature, and Jewish traditions and whei-e they are being imbued with a love for everything that is wholesome, virile, and sacred in Jewish life.
It is the consensus of opinion among a large portion of our communal and spiritualjeaders, tliat Zionism has brou,?ht new life to Judaism in .\merica, and that it has given it animpetus that will tend to. strengthen,- conserve, and guide it for generations to come. Dr. Max Heller, ai blessed memory, on numerous occa¬ sions pointed out that Judaism in the irnitcd States would be in a terrible plight today had not the eloquent cham¬ pions of Zionism brought to American Jewi-y the fires of Jewish nationalism and the "enthusiasm and the spirit o£ seU- ahncgatinn of the Chalntzim, the modern, rcbuilders of our ancient Homeland., Such men as Rabbi Louis L Newman, Dr. Stephen S. Wise, Dr. Abba Hillel Silver. Dr. Felix A. Levy, and Dr. Joseph Silverman have concuirrcd in this sentiment.
If Judaism in America is to continue- as a living and throbbing force in the life of American Jewry, the Zionist movement will have to receive a greater and more whole-hearted assistance from the rank and Pile- of. our people as welt as their leaders. The future of our re¬ ligion and its ideals and principles is boiind up with the progress and develop¬ ment of Zionism in America.    This is
fundamental.
+   +    ****
I care not,whether a man adopts the. political theory of this movement or the theory known as Cultural Zionism: but he must help the movement as a whole.
It occurs to me that tthere is iio better time than the present for a reconsecra- tion to Jewish fundamental^ principles. There, is no better way m which to carry out this spirit of consecration than by joining the Zionist organization and working with its splendid leaders on be¬ half of the great Hebrew Renaissance of the present day.
Let us awaken to our responsibilities; let us forget for a .moment the mundane pleasures and interests of this earthly life and unite harmoniously for one common glorious purpose'—the rehabilitation of Eretz Yisroel.
