Rabbi Abram Simon preached a sermon
last evening at special service at 80
o clock upon the subject, within the
Gates This morning a special service was
held at 10 O'Clock In the temple of the
Washington Hebrew Congregatio on Sth
near H street northwest, when Rabbi Simon
spoke on THE Sublimity of Duty On
both occasions Rev. DIR. Louis Stern as
sisted in conducting the exercises. Large
congregations were present and the spirit
of the sacred festival was entered into by
all.
Rabbi Simon delivered an eloquent and in
structive address. This day bids us be seri-
ous,'' he declared, in opening. I'VE have
come here for serious reflection. What is
the purpose of life? What is life itself?'
The speaker, in turn, graphically described
the medical, commercial the toilers and
the luxurious ideas of life. These, he went
on to say, were mere descriptions, but not
definitions of life.
"On day like this, 1 ask you what is
life?" Rabbi Simon reiterated. Continuing
he spoke of mothers love, declared that by
1t life is possible, and pointed out that life
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1905-09-30

wherein every deed and act is recorded by
the mysterious hand of Supreme Provi-
dence, unerring and never-failing in His
Judgment of man and nation"
He explained that.the day is called a day
of judgment because then each man is
supposed to judge himself before God and
his own conscience, and to view his past
life in the light of the records of his deeds
AT the conclusion of his sermon Rabbi
Loeb made a most earnest appeal for sup
port to the movement on foot for new
synagogue for this congregation. The peo-
pie should be proud to raise a temple more
worthy of their God, he said, and should
come forth literally to pay off any debt
which may be incurred in its erection. He
expressed the hope that by the time an
other new year day rolled around the
members of the Adath Israel congregation
Will be worshiping in their new synagogue
This congregation will also hold services
this evening. beginning at $50 O'Clock, and
tomorrow morning from dawn until past
noon, as q part of the new year celebra-
ton. The blowing of the shofar or ram s
horn, which is symbolic of the ushering in
of the new year, will be postponed until
tomorrow, because of the fact that this
year the new year day falls on the Hebrew
Sabbath This distinction is not made by
the Reformed Jewish congregations, and
they blew the horn today.
A solemn service was held at Odd Eel
lows Hall, on 18th street northwest, last

cap, led the devotions, and a choir, ar
rayed in similar costumes, sang appropri-
ate songs.
Services were also held from 10 o'clock
until o'clock today in the hall by this
congregation. On this occasion Rabbi
Graffman preached on THE Blowing of the
Shofar." Services will be held in Odd Fell
lows Hall at 6:30 o'clock this evening and
from 10 until 2 o'clock tomorrow, in con-
tinuation of the Rosh Hashanah celebra-

Been widely advertised.
And something you may learn from

IL you are not a clam.
You can be just as widely known
As Mary and her lamb.
Your name can be a household word
And you be known 50 well
That folks will confidently buy
The things you have to sell.
And when you once have got your
self
Into the clearing rays
OF the sunlight Of publicity.
You bet your life il pays.
