JEWISH NEW YEAR.
Day Will Be Properly Observed
On Friday Next.

q @ jay A. 10 ~ "
Rosh Hashannah, or the Jewish New
Years Day, will begin on Friday. Sep
TENDER goth. at sunset, and will continue
tntil sunset Of the following day.
1t is hot generally. known that this is
not in reality the first day of the year.
hut is the first day Of Tishri, the sew
enth month. According, to the jewish
calendar, this is the year $685., and the
new year will be b6t6.
The Jews originally observed four
new years The first was on the first
day Of Nissan, the first month, and was
the civil now year, or the day from which
the years Of n kings eign We're counted.
The second was on the first of Ellul
the sixth month";, and was the day OF
which the cattle were taken account Of
.and the tithes set apart for the Lord.
THE third new year was the one which
they retain to-day. The fourth was on
the fifteenth day Of Tishri, the seventh
month, and was the day set aside for
tree planting. "a, < 3a3s.;
AS the years passed the Hebrews no
longer had Il king, nor needed q day for
taking account of the cattle, nor for
planting of treesy so three of the new
year celebrations passed into memories.
The New Year which they now cele-
brate Is, with the exception of the Day
of Atonement, which comes ten days
later. the most sacred holiday. in the
year.
8 on that day the Hebrew recalls his
past sins and calls on God to forgive
him. On that day the rams horn is
blown at the synagogue as reminder
to the people Of their sins. On that
day God judges his people and listens to
their prayers for forgiveness.
Rosh Hashannah Is observed by all
Hebrews. No Jew attends 10 any busi-
ness on that day. Hebrew shops are
closed and Hebrew industries cease, and
every man. woman and child attends
the synagogue for worship.
Ten days later comes the Day Of Atone
! ment, when God forgives their sins and
the people spend the day in fasting and
| prayer.
