The Chanuka Festival was celebrat-
ed yesterday afternoon by the Sunday
school of the Temple Mickva Israel al
the Sheftall Memorial Hall on Dray-
ton street.
The programme, although rendered
by the small children of the Sunday
school. was interesting from start to
finish. and much credit is due Rev.
George Solomon for the success of the
entertainment. All of the songs and
recitations were well rendered.
The exercises opened with a selec-
ton by the orchestra, composed of
boys, and was followed by an address
by Master Sylvan Byck. Master Byck
addressed the audience in a manly
manner and told of Chanuka. My
friends. we have come here to-day, all
happy and expecting to be made hap
pier in celebrating our Chanuka Festi-
val" he said.
Nearly all of us have comfortable
homes, and on the Sabbath, If a
stranger should come. we would be
proud to take him to our synagogue,
or show him our chapel, knowing that
both are as nice as any place in the
city. AS we see the bright light of
the Chanuka candles, and sing the old
time Chanuka song, we feel proud of
our religion and are glad that we are
Jews. But while we are so happy,
my friends, let us remember that it
was not always so.
In far-off Russia to-day there are
thousands and thousands of Jewish
children who are not so happy. Cha
nuka does not bring happiness to
them. Their homes are poor and bare;
their synagogues are small and un-
attractive, because in that country peo-
pie hate and despise the Jew and
make things very hard for him. Up
to a hundred years ago it was the
same all over the world, except in
blessed America. But bad as this was,
it was not as bad as the troubles the
Jews had to undergo many years ago.
"a long, long time ago, the Jews
had a country and a government OF
their own. They lived in Palestine.
and the capital of their country was
the city of Jerusalem. About 1850
years back, there was a powerful coun-
try called Syria, and its kings cap
tured Jerusalem and tried to make all
the people give up their religion. Most
of the people were frightened by the
great armies of the Syrian soldiers,
and did not have the courage to stand
up for their rights. But all at once
an old man, named Mattathias, came
forth and refused to surrender. BY
force of his example the people gath

SALVATION ARMY READY
TO FEED THE POOR.
Capt. hartman Making Plans for
Usual Christmas Feast.

Capt. hartman Making Plans for
Usual Christmas Fenst.
Capt. ]. NJ. hartman, the new COM
mander of the Salvation Army post
stationed in this city, will soon begin
his preparations for the annual feast
to be given the poor on Christmas.
For number of years it has been
the custom of the Salvation Army to
give a Christmas dinner to as many
poor and needy as they are able to
provide for. Capt. hartman says, if
possible, he wishes to provide for at
least 500 this year.
This will be a gigantic task. as the
Salvationists have to depend entirely
on the donations they receive from
the merchants of the city. Capt Bar
riman was in charge of the Birming-
ham post last year, where over 1000
people were provided for, and he has
no fear of not being able to arrange
to look after 500 in this city.
Tomorrow he will place collection
baskets on all of the principal street
corners, and expects to realize a sub
stantial sum In this manner. About
the middle of this week he will enter
upon a campaign of canvassing that
will cover every home and business
house in the city. He will not only
ask for money with which to defray
some of the expenses, but will gladly
receive promises of donations of any
description.
few days before Christmas Capt.
hartman will ascertain the most needy
families in the city and to these he
will give a ticket, which when pre-
scented at the hall on the Saturday
before Christmas, will entitle the hold
er to a basket This basket will con-
tain all that is most necessary to make
a good and bountiful dinner. 1t is
expected he will provide for at least
$50 in this manner.
At the hall on West Broad street on
Monday, Dec. 26, regular Christmas
feast viii be served from IL o'clock
in the morning until 2:30 in the aft
ernoon At this feast all will attend
who did not receive baskets. and at
least $50 are expected to dine.

ZIONISM AN EXPRESSION
OF NATIONAL FEELING.

Continued from Eighth Page.
George Tunkle. of Augusta who deliv-
cred a short address and introduced
Mr.. De Haas. Mr.. Tunkle, who came
to Savannah to aid in the organiza-
ton of the Zionist society here, refer
red to his former visit. On that oc-
CASTOR, he said, his audience had urged
him to go on. when he was ready to
stop speaking. Last night, he said
he was afraid they would call to him
to stop. so anxious were they to hear
Mr.. De Haas.
He paid a compliment to the Zion
lists of Savannah. and referred to this
city as the center of Zionism in the
South. He looked forward to the day,
he said, when Savannah would invite
the Congress of Zionists to meet here.
He assured his audience that If the
Congress ever met here, he would
come all the way from Augusta to
attend" Mr.. Tunkle said he not on
ly desired to introduce the speaker TO
the audience, but he wished to intro
duce the audience to the speaker.
In beginning his lecture, Mr.. De
Haas extended, greetings TO the
brothers and sisters of Israel" The
greetings of the Fast to the South.
He said he had come to speak of the
Zionist movement, a movement, a
movement that had so often been COM
mented upon and criticised by those
who knew nothing about it.
Some people have an idea, he said,
that Zionism consists of man travel
ing around the country telling the
Jews to pack up and move back TO
Jerusalem. He said such was not the
case and he was not going to tell a
single Jew in Savannah to go to Pales-
tine.
The lecture was enthusiastically re-
ceived At it's conclusion, Rev. /.
Wolfson, sang another song and the
meeting adjourned. The Zion Guard
composed of boys sixteen years of age
or under. that is just being organized
here, attended the meeting.
