RUSHBR00K IS SPEAKER "Influence of the Jew" Subject 'of Highly Interesting Discourse ' Last Night Powerful People Influence Felt in Many Countries and in Many Spheres There was a very large atten-iance at the regular monthly meeting of the Prince Rupert Parent-leathers' Association last evening m the Borden Street School to hear .tv. Canon W. F. Rushbrook speak in the subject of "The Influence of die Jew Upon Modern Life and Thought." Be inning his address with the remark that it was a well known i.id that some of the least observed ; orces are the most important, Can- !i Rushbrook demonstrated that ihc whole can only be adjusted and understood by taking these seem ingly minor factors Into account Palestine was one of the smallest countries In the world and the es timated Jewish population of the world was only 15,600,000 people. Yet, apart from the purely scientific thoughC' these Jewish people have wielded and are still wielding a greater basic influence upon world thought than the people of all other nations combined. Their women had given birth to the most perfect saints of the Orient upright, admonishing, solitary prophets; and finally from their race was born Jesus He who had been awaited by all the prophets. The Jew created no metaphysics, nor science, nor sculpture, nor art, nor architecture of his own; but he had given to the world the grand'r est poetry of antiquity, glowing with sublimity in the psalms and pror phets, sometimes Inimitably tendef as In the stories of Joseph and Ruth, and at other times burning with passion. So magnificent and uplifting was their religious literature that It was certain to last fot all time. Evolved Ieda of God Alone among all eastern peopls the Jews early evolved the Idea of one omnipotent Ood. They, without doubt, dominated the religious thought of the world. Disraeli once said in a sarcastic retort: "One half of the Christian world worships' a Jew, the other half, a Jewess." ' Jehovah or Y-we, signifying the self-existent or "I Am," was the Jewish national God and this conception has thrust into the back ground lesser ideas of Deity until the Jewish National God has practically become the God of the kingdoms of the earth. To a Jew civilization owed Its ethics. The life of Jesus was all that was best In ethics. Childhood, womanhood, manhood and home owed to Him a debt that the whole world recogntg; and wherever his life and tcach- lngs were known, there at once Ufa began to modify and consciously or unconsciously began to adopt the principles lived and taught by Je- sus. I Turning to politics and statc-; craft, the speaker again showed tha paramount influence of the Jew. Here the decalogue of the Jews was basic and fundamental. Present day Communistic and , socialistic tendencies undoubtedly had their source in Hebraic history and liter ature. Prior to the exile, the theocracy of the Hebrews was Communistic! This was evidenced also ; In I the lives of the first recruits of Jesus. It was not to be wondered at. then, that present day communistic Ideas were the progeny of Jew-( Continued on page six.) ,j
