One of the most interesting men of
the Jewish Church in Washington is
Rabbi julius 7. Loeb of the Synagogue
of the Naath Israel. corner of Sixth and
G Streets northwest Rabbi Loeb is
scholar of attafnments and close stu
dent Of the Bible. In an interview with
a Times reporter the other day Rabbi
Loeb made the following remarks anent
the Passover, basing his remarks on the
first sentence Of the DecaIogue: i am
the Lore thy God. Who brought thee forth
from the land of Egypt" being used as

The Passover has its most important
significance" said Mr.. Loeb, 'as the an
niversary of freedoms birth. as the
stepping stone of the worlds cfviliza-
ton. The departure OF Israel from Egypt
is where d realization Of spirit begins
in the history of nations and IS the pTi-

manity. What is It we call nature? The
regular order and law by which all
created beings are governed and the
proper performance of their respective
functions Who is there to have formed
all these things-to have maintained
them? Who has given Us light and life
and reason? Is there a Creator I know
not, says the skeptic. I only believe
that which / see, cries the agnostie.
To such individuals the departure
from Egypt is most striking admont-

Somers is becoming very much

houses numbered; have water in all
the houses, electric lights, and now
the houses are all being painted.
Mr.. OBrien does everything possible
to make it pleasant for people living
here. There are great many places
larger than Somers and not near so
pleasant in which to live.
Mrs. O'Brien and Miss O'Brien
very pleasantly entertained some
thirty ladies Thursday afternoon at
an informal thimble bee. Every one
present had a most enjoyable time,
regardless of the threatening clouds.
Everything was sunshine and merri-
ment.
A few of the younger smart set"
attended the bachelor boys ball at
Kaispell Wednesday. Among them
were: Miss O'Brien, J. K. OBrien,
Brownrigg, Fahrenkoff Tesch and
Prondsizka. They all say the bach
elor boys are royal entertainers.
The planning mill has been running
quarter time extra the last week, as
the lumber company has great many
large orders to be filled at once.
