RABBI CILI>CH no IOURiSIs.
His sixth Year at Beth Ahaba Closed Yes
ter~day-Advice to ,ojOurners in Couniry.

Rabbi +. y. Calisch spoke in a retro
spective mood TO his congregation yester-
day morning. taking his text from Isaiah
Xvi, /.
He said that with this service he was
finishing the sixth year OF his
occupancy Of Betha Ahaba pull
pit. During that period many
changes had taken place I'm both the COM
munal and individual lives O. the mem
bers. The method Of service had been
altered and new features had been adopt
ed. There had been changes in the HE
of the families. Some had cone never
TO return: new faces and new lives had
But amidst all the changes the one un-
varying feature of all the six years had
been the constant kindness Of the consTe-
cation toward him and their constant
unfolding his hands in his work. -.
For this he felt profoundly grateful ana
wished TO give expression to his apprecia-
ton.
The Rabbi then referred to the coming
summer with its annual exodus To sea-
shore and mountains. RE wished 10 re-
mind the congregation that religion was
not something that held good only within
the house OF worship.
There was no time when religious pre-
cept ought to be put into practice more
so than when they We're taxing tnsir an,
nual outings. Though conventional
dress and manner may be relaxed, moral
conduct cannot be-. Righteousness must
be Righteousness always-in evening dress

ful among the mountains as I'm the city,
and not all the roar OF the waves could
drown the sting Of an unklnd word. ln-
deed. there is need OF greater p~reciuton.
because of the very relaXation Of social
etiquette. Idle minds as well as idle
hands are prone TO mischief.
When people Of various localities. de-
grees Of culture and shades OF belief are
thrown together under one roof. then
should be the greatest OF care exercised.
They depend upon one another for their
pleasures and pastime. They become al
most like one large family and the pro-
dominant thought should always be con-
sideraiion for one another.
The sight of the beauties Of nature
should be a moral stimulant. The
groves were Gods first temples The het-
ven is the throne OF God. the earth Is
His footstocl. The sound of the sea is
a ceaseiess anthem Of praise. ana the
breast OF man should no less be the birth
place of alteration FOR God. and his hands
be the doors OF the divine will.
The Rabbi also spoke Of the service as
IL would be conducted In the synagogue
during the heated term.
