When a Near East Re¬ lief worker viitited the orphanage the other day, a teacher was, giving a les¬ son to a group of boys, and the little girls were learning sewing. One little girl of five was busily crocheting a piece of lace. The lace had a well-made appearance aiid not a .stitch was missed Although the children were in cheap - little grey orphanage dresses, they each had- individuality, "which showed that some one was taking a personal in ,terest in them.

"The Near East Relief aids this or¬ phanage by giving a certain sum - of money 'to the Jewish orphanage com¬ mittee of Constahtinople, It is the hope of the Jewish orphanage committee to remove these children to better quar¬ ter?," - Very Gratifying To the Jews in tliis country who ar<i contributing to the Near East Relief, and there are many such, the report of the work that is being done with children of their own race must be particularly gratifying, Constantinople is,only one of several centers in which Jewish orphans are being cared for, either in orphanages of their own or as mctnbers of a general Near East Relief family. The Near East Relief owes its in- "ccption to one of the most splendid Jewish leaders of our country, Henry 'Morgenthau, at that time ambassador at Const.-intinople. It was started in 1915 in response to a cable from him Io 'Washington, urging the formation of a committee to alleviate the* s.uffer- ingSjOf the Armenians and Greeks, vic- ¦^.tims of Turkish deportations, 'While in 'Constantinople, both he and his suc- tessor, Hon, AJiram I, Elkus, were most active in furthering the work of the committee, (Continued on poge t) NEW YORK, (J, C, H.)—"The Jews of Russia and the Ukraine count the days on their fingers in order to know when the Sabbjith begins because there is no suoli thing as a calendar in Russia," said M, Spcctor, well- known Jewish author, at a meeting of representatives of 103 Jewish organi¬ zations called to consider wiiys and means of forwarding Jewish books to Russia, The bool^ famine was pictured as being as grave as the foo<l famine by another author, S, Niger, who was supported in his pica by Moissayc Olgin .ind M, Roschkes, president of the All Russian JcwLsh Public Commit¬ tee.

I, Those words are in the Mosaic Law. How is it then that we find instances of frequent intermarriages between He brews and the surrounding peoples witl Cunfcssion to God, "Separate yourselves from the peoples of the land and from till; foreign women."

Dr. Stephen S. Wise s:iid that the Erce Synagogue for the next five or ten years would continue to worship in Car¬ negie Hall. He told his congregation that the project had been regarded as more vital by the executive council than the building of a new home for the Free Synagogue at this time.
