A SEASON OF MERRYMAKINe.
Day of Atonement win End the

Jewish New Year
The members of the Jewish community
devoted Sunday TO festivities appropriate
to the celebration of the New Year as
we'll as paying visits of congratulations
This season of rejoicing will last until
the 26th of the month, when all social
events will be suspended, for on that day
commences the most solemn period in the
Hebrew calendar. Yom Kippur, or the
Day of Atonement
The services prescribed by the ritual
for this occasion are the most solemn of
all. 1t is a day of humiliation, prayer
and fasting, when all business must be
laid aside and penance done for the mis-
deeds and shortcomings of the past year.
Meanwhile however. like the Christians
before Lent, the Jewish people through
out the world will one and all combine in
merry making when not engaged in the
devotions incident to the period.
There will be daily service in the tenn
pie of the congregation, Beth Elohim,
terminating with the Hakkipurim or
publication, which will end the New
Year festival.
