memoration Of the Passover, which be
gan at sunset last night
At the Eighth Street Temple a large
congregation listened to a sermon on
THE Gospel Of Freedom" preached by
Rabbi Simon. The sermon covered the
early history of the Jews and resolved
itself into an eloquent discourse on the
Jewish faith, the results of the early
trlbulations of the race, and the happy
outcome OF the trials to which the
Jewish people were subjected at that
time. Rabbi Stern presided at the serv-
ice. which will be repeated tomorrow

morning at the Adath Israel Temple.
Rabbi Julius T. Loeb conducted the
entire service, and preached on the de-
livery of the Jews from bondage. The
chanting Of hymns without accOmpani-
ment formed an important feature Of
the service. Many Of these hymns have
been preserved only by tradition.
During the morning. prayers were said
for the President, officers, and people OF
the United States, and also special IN
vocations were made that rains and
dews should be sent to bring and pre-
serve life to food plants, flowers. fruits.
and trees.

The services will be continued tonight
