Today in Risha Hashana—the Jewish New Year. Jews everywhere are having special services and feasts, giving and sending good wishes to their friends, and determining new achievements, so do we at our new year holiday season. We little realize just how great achievements have been made by the people of that group. Jews are often accused of being materialistic and exclusively practical in their aim. In often we think of them only as "money graffitters." It is a false notion, for Jews are to be found among the forement in every field of activity. Many important magazines and newspapers have been founded by Jews. One of the most famous and most popular known of journalists was Joseph Pulitzer, proprietor of the New York Publicer and founder of the famous Pulitzer prizes for excellent writing. In music the list of Jewish celebrities is long and imposing. Among the greatest may be included Felix Menelaosch, J Berger, J Offenbach, Anton Rub, and Joseph Joachim. Two of the chief actresses of the nineteenth century, Rachel Felix and Sarah Berrhardt, were Jews. Jews have become distinguished as theatrical managers. Among these may be named Lumley and David Belasco. Einstein is a Jew. In the field of economics there are such famous names as David Ricardo, Karl Marx, Eduard Bermstein, G. Cohen, E. R. A. Seligman and many others. Law, too, is a favorite study among the Jews and there are many famed Jews in that profession. The contributions of that oppressed people have been worth infinitely more to humanity than is usually realized. There are many other fields in which Jews have shown their ability. There are famous Jewish poets, essayists, artists, sculptors, philomers, historians, chemists, botanists, doctors educators, pupils, investors, bankers PROGRESSIVE IOWA Football players played for practical courses should petition the Chancellor to follow the example of the university of Iowa. Iowa has started a class in radio an enouncing which intends to teach its members how "not to be superior" and how to "assume an attitude that will strike the lowbrow." After completing the course and receiving fan letters, the members will have earned two hours' credit. How thrilling. We suppose next we shall see courses offered in the following subjects: Home Blacksmithing, 4 hours; Miniature Golfing, 5 hours; How to Grow Tomatoes Already Canned, 6 hours laboratory; Insurance and Bond Salesmanship, 1 hour; Political Campaigning, 3 hours; Ad Reading, 4 hours practice, 1 hour classwork. American universities need more of these honest-to-government, sensible courses. We're tired of Culture and boredom. Preparation for life is what we demand, and where can we get it better than at college? THEY HAVE OUR SYMPATHY THEY HAVE OUR SYMPATHY The reporters have been around again to see how Florence and John are getting along. The A.P. story says, "One thing John and Florence want is to be left alone," but the poor things seem to be having difficulty in getting their wish. Every so often some reporter has come around to see if the young couple are still living in their modest apartment, if John still goes unobtructively to work, and if Florence still enjoys performing her housewifely tasks. Being unknown and insignificant has its good points after all. Most women can go along keeping house with only the neighbors and the husband's relatives knowing whether they are good housekeepers—but not so. Florence? The headlines announce "Florence a Busy Wife." Keeping house in the limelight like that must be very trying. One would hardly feel free to leave the dishes once in anvil or neglect to dust the piano bench some day, for the newspapers might come out with "Modest Apartment Neglected," or "Florence Leaves Dinner Dishes and Goes to Play Golf." POOR MANHATTAN! Poor Manhattan! One-fourth of her zoo has escaped. The badder decided he didn't choose to remain in the zoo, but instead departed. The police are looking for him. For be it from us to tell our neighbor how to run its civic affairs. Such a performance on our part would indicate only a meddlement disposition, from which God save us. But in all friendliness, we feel called upon to offer a few suggestions to our agricultural friends. How about substituting that wildcat for the escaped innate? Wouldn't a wildcat be better than a badger anyhow? Or perhaps, since Manhattan houses the cow college, a bovine specimen would be more representative and appropriate. Or perhaps the remainder of the zoo could be killed and stuffed, and the zoo turned into a museum. For—really—a museum is lot a cheaper. The first cost in all; there is no upkeep for feed or fencing or attendants or anything. We'll even go so far as to make an offer to Manhattan. If the city fathers take our suggestion and run their two into a museum, we'll let 'em have Cusser's house, in Dynec hall. We've looked at it long enough, and turn about in fair play—it's getting moth-eaten, anyhow. Seriously, we trust Manhattan is not unduly cush down over a mere budger; but losing one-fourth of your whole zoo is pretty serious, we admit. We sympathize deeply. Plain Tales --at A certain sociology instructor was discoursing "Now this beggar family," said he "wouldn't give up his horses for anything. They were the pride of its life. Indeed, they meant to buy it." The baby-which it did not have." Pray tell us just how valuable are horses which are more valuable than a non-existent baby. Our curiosity is intense.
