Theme of Discourse at
Gunton Temple Me-
mortal Church.
INTRODUCED BY REV. DR.. FlSKE
Tells of Great Work Accomplished by
Reform Bureau and of Benefits to Be
Derived From the Use of Sabbath as
Day of Rest From Labo,s.

The eternal life of a nation. said Rev
Wilbur F. Crafts, ID. D., yesterday al the
morning service az Guaton Temple Me-
mortal Church, depends upon the eternal
vigilance of its people, for nations dc
not go by luck. but by law. Mr.. Crafts,
who is a prime mover In the work OF
the Reform Bureau. took for his general
subject, Living and Dying Nations. u
which he discussed with special refer
ence to Sunday laws Tor the District now
pending in Congress-
The speaker was introduced by the
Rev. Asa S. Fiske, d. D., pastor of the
church, who said among other things
that selfish pleasure making on the Sab
hath is as great a wrong on the Sabbath
as selfish work.
Before entering upon the discussion
of his subject. DR.. Crafts exhibited to
the congregation the pen with which
President Roosevelt signed the act Of
Congress ;r- 1ihiing the sale of in
toxicants, cp.Em and fire arms to the
aboriginal races in all the Pacific Isl
ands This pen. il was stated. was pre-
scented to the Reform Bureau by Presi-
dent Roosevelt DR.. Crafts then briefly
outlined the work of the bureau, telling
fits extent. It's influence. and what 1t has
accomplished. He referred particularly
10 the work Of the bureau in connection
with the enactment Of the divorce law
IN the District, which allows absolute di-
vorce only on Biblical grounds and the
enforcement OF the closing OF the St.
Louis Fair on the Sabbath. He also
briefly discussed the subject of the sale
of liquor at the Capitol. which is now
pending legislation before Congress.
He said the people OF the District
must make themselves heard and felt
on this question; they have not the
privilege Of -he use Of the ballot box.
but they have the privilege OF the use
OF the mail boxes. They should take
ADVANTAGE II this and writc to all mem
berg Of Congress and ask them to
exert their i3luence 20 have the sale of
intoricanta prohibited at the Capitol.

OF SUNDAY OBSERVANCE

! District code. recently adopted. defining
the status of divorce cases filed before
January. 1902. he said. it makes a very
! queer condition OF affairs. In one hour
/ two persons may be divorced for any
one of four or five diffe.>lt causes, while
| in the next hour two persons will be
/ told they cannot be divorced except for
the one particular ground set forth In
the code, which went into effect in Janu-
ary last.
! Or. Crafts took for his text Isaiah

the highest place of the earth and feed
thee with the heritage of Jacob, thy
father"
In developing his text Or. Crafts said
that the victory gained by the reform
( movement in closing the St Louis
! Worlds Fair on Sunday was one Of the
greatest. II proved that the sentiment
OF the good American people favored
quiet Sabbath. In fact. he said.
nine-tenths of the merchant princes OF
the country favored the Sunday clos
ings. The saving OF the individual. DR..
Crafts said. is the first step toward saw
ing the community and consequently the
country. The best way TO save the in
diyidual is to inculcatc the spirit of

but we do know that many have died be-

latter. he said. was dying Of moral cul

FlTTINGLY OPENED
FEAST OF WEEKS
Hebrew Thanksgiving fo- Blessing OF
the Harvest.

The Feast of Weeks is kept on the
sixth day of the month of Swan. which
occurs this year (being the Hebrew New
Year, on June II. In the orthodox con
gregations the following day Is alsa
celebrated.
The feast derives its name from the
counting of the seven preceding weeks
seven weeks being counted between the
second day OF Passover and this fosti-
val. On the second day or Passover an
omer (that is. certain measurcI CT
new barley was offered in the temple Gs
thanksgiving for the harvest. which
commenced in Palestine ct the time of
the Passover. The counting is called
"thc counting of the omor" Passover
being the feast of an early harvest, an
offering of an omer of the new barley
was brought on the second day OF Pass
over. From that Gay fGrty-nine days,
or seven weeks, were counted, and on
the fiftieth day. 'thc day of the first
fruit Offering" was celebrated. At pres
ent sacrifices are not offered. but the
counting. called "the counting Of the
omer." is still observed.
The days between Passover and the
Feast Of Weeks, especially the month of
Tyar. were days of sore trouble to the
Jews in the time of the Roman wars
during the reign Of the Emperor Hadrian
and also at the period OF the Crusades
The Jews. therefore. abstain during the
month of Iyar from wedding festivities
and the like. The 18th of Iyar. the SD
CT Omer. is excepted. because on that
day the plague disappeared that had

Akiba. 4 supporter Of Bareechha. WHO
was the leader OF the Jews against the
Romans.
shebuoth is also eallel the day of
first fruit Offering" and also harvest
feast" it is a day OF thanksgiving for
the blessing of the harvest. ON this
day is celebrated also the anniversary
Of the revelation on Mount Sinai. and
the festival is therefore also called "the
season of the giving OF the law.
On the first day CT the festival the ac-
count of the revelation on Mount Sinai
Exod. xix and XXI is read during the
service. On the second day. in
addition to the lessons from the Penta- /
teuch and the Prophets, the Book of
Ruth Is read for the following reasons; |
First. it contains an account of the |
harvest and the way in which the poor
we're formerly allowed TO CLEAN in the
ields in the harvest time; secondly. be- !
,ause ii relates how Ruth abandoned /
doIatry and embraced the true faith.

and it is said ;hat this action results
in an increased efficiency en- the part Of
the men. In sorae Of the cities they are
paid. but in nest places they are sim
ply volunteer officers.
Gives 1t His Approval.
When approached upon the subject.
Chief Dutton stated that it met with
his unqualified approval. ard he thought
it was in every way practical.
AT all large fires" he said. "the
buggies of the various chiefs could be
easily sent to the homes of such min
isters as might be willing TO serve. and
bring them 10 the scene of the fire."
In addition to DR.. Scagg. whose work
in the department during the last few
years has made his name inseparable
from any religious movement. it has
been suggested that DR.. Stafford. of
ST. Patrick's Church. be asked to desig-
nate some priest to cooperate with Dr.
Scagg. The work of two such men. rep
resenting both the Protestant and Cath
Ollie churches. would be invaluable in
to those who might need
their services. To many persons under
such circumstances. it is said. the ser
vices of q minister are quite as neces-
sary as those OF a physician.
1t is understood that the matter will
be brought to the attention of the Dis
triCt Commissioners. Ii it is approved
by them. the innovation may become an
accomplished fact in the near future.

Chief Dutton Believes 1t Would Prove
OF Beneft-Matter to Be Brought
Before Commissioners.

\ movement is now on foot to of
ficially appoint a chaplain or chaplains
in the Fire Department. They will re
cciye no compensation at the present
time. but in view Of the excellent work
that has been accomplished by Dr.
David scagg Chief Dutton believes that
it will be 10 the benefit of the depart
ment 10 take such action. Furthermore.
it will be in the nature OF recognition
OF the valuable work that has been done
by this most excellent man.
The big departments in other cities
all have some minister who looks after
the spiritual welfare OF the members.
