Here is a marvelous thing-a bush is burning and is not consumed! "Show ine a mir acle." said Frederick the Great to his chaplain. "Sire, it is the Jews," an swered the man of God. As an am bassador of God, 1, too, in a labor of love, would sto pand pay a tribute of appreciative recognition to this won derful people to whom you and I are indebted for so many things, not the least of which is the fundamentals of our own Christian religion. Al Ithe world's a stage whereon not only individuals but nations and races are players. Every nation has played some part, great or small. Each one has had its messge for the centuries in which it lived. Rome gave govern ment; Gree, culture; Phoenicia, con mtereefli the Jew has carried monothe ism, the worship of a single God, through the ages. lie has played his part alv played it well. Where he has faltered or blundered he always paid a fearful penalty. I know of no other that has suffered so much and sur vived. Watch i ring 1able tanship.

EA)Y-TO--WEA1R (G000 S[JMTEIL S. C. W'ien the temple in Jerushlem was 3 destroyed the Jew became a wanderer a man without a country. There isn't a i continent ,there isn't a nation upon the face of the earth of which he is not an inhabitant. Innumerable forces of his- I tory through many ages have helped to form his destiny. H1is story is at once the miracle and the romance of humni history. None can blot him out, Baby- I lonian captivity, Rloman domination, Grecian absorption, mediaeval perse- " cution, modern massacre, have been in i yain. Tailk about the splendid line of Rioman pontiffs on the banks of the yellow Tiber-the ,Jew has out lived I EIgypt, Chaldea, Assyria, Persia and the dynasties of the past. While our fathers were savages living on roots in the forest or glawing a bone in a cave his were Princes in the house ot, King David. lie of today is nothing more or less than a child of his great i yesteiday. Th14ough removed from his Asiatic origin well-nigh 2,000 years, there's a queer dualism which mtakes I him a creature old and new. lie has one foot on the soil of antiquity, tile other rests on the foreground of to day. Hlis profile is that of U r oa Chaldees, but in Russia his features are Russian, in Italy Italian, in Spa in I Spanish. There are 50,000 black Jews in Abyssinia, negro Hebrews, while i there are even Chinese Jews who ob serve all the Jewish religious rites and all their dietary laws-yet they have I the almond eyes ,the flat noses and the yellow skin of' Mongolians. In the Fiery Fuirnace. e The three Iliebrew children in the i fiery furnace were forerunners. In the sixteitli centur yin Venice was begun the concentration camp known as the Ghetto. Back of the old ghetto, or iron foundry, the Jew had to live in a restricted district. The name was gradually applied to the .Jewish quarter of every city. In each m city. In each ghetto he developed a life of his own-religion, custom, liter atuire, tradition, song pleasure all his - owvn. During those Middle Ages he was persecuted relentlessly, bitterly. It a wouldn't surprise me if that mediaeval p life had not left an indelible impress p: on him. That past, indeed his any b past, is not a mere memory to he (1 cherished and revered, but a hideous, s living, ever?present experience, hurn- t ed on his consciousness. Is he "pecu- , liar."? If he is, circumstances have e made him so. Suppose we had taken tj a few hundred thousand people of any t nation 2,000 years ago, set them apart b to live in restricted districts, forced f them to wear a distinctive garb, for bidden thenm to engage in agriculture, a limited their usefulness to particular ti trades, only in rarest cases allowed to; a own property, many other things pro- t hibited under pain of death-wouldn't v any peoplie become "peculiar"? Woul it be wondered at if long-continued I persecution would leave them suspi- I cious74 The comtant menace of the proselyter would make thenm no less y fuirsnome than the tarture chamber itself-they would soon fear the Greek when bearing gifts.
