holiday, or Jubilee, however. will not be
observed in Palatka, rs there is no syna-

festival Thursday night the synagogues
are brilliantly lighted and decorated, and
the most prominent old men and young
men in the congregation are selected to
take the scrolls of the law from the sa-
cred ark and march in procession with
them around the room. The old parch-

the PeRtateuch, are mounted on poles
about two feet long. and are surmounted
by tinkliug bells Of gold and silver.
Around this is a cover OF rich brocade-
edged with gold lace, and the whole
scene is one of br'Iliauce and light that
is particularly attractive TO the young
people.
