RECIPROCITY
HIS is a word made famous a few years ago by a great
political leader who made of it almost a platform. It is
a good English word and according to the dictionary
means “that relation or policy . . . under which special
advantages are granted by one side in consideration of special ad
vantages granted by the other/'
The Southern Israelite is now, as for more than five years
past, exerting every effort to advance the interests of the Jewish
people of the South.
It is conservative and constructive in its policy and gives its
services freely, without regard to sect, financial consideration, or
social standing, to every cause which it has reason to believe will ad
vance the interests of the Jewish people.
Under the terms of reciprocity (or in the common vernacular
“one good turn deserves another”) the Jewish people should appre
ciate these efforts and reciprocate by aiding the journal which is
advancing their own interests, protecting the good name and stand
ing of the Jewish people in this community and aiding in Jewish edu
cation, in the Goodwill movement, and in every inspirational and up
lifting movement which affects the Jew.
The merchants who advertise in this magazine desire to
show their goodwill for the Jewish people and are helping to
support, advance Jewish interests in thus doing. They are de
serving of reciprocity.
Readers of The Southern Israelite should give preference to The Southern
Israelite advertisers and should make it a point to let those advertisers
KNOW that they DO SO by telling them “I SAW IT IN THE SOUTH
ERN ISRAELITE.”
Let Goodwill be met by Goodwill
