ORTHODOX JEWS Celebrate
They Commence the Annual Observ.

their annual celebration of the feast

led alike in synagogue and in the
home and every following night the
number of lights is increased by one
until on the eighth night every house
and synagogue has its eight lights all
burning. No manual work, not even
sewing, Is permitted by Hanukah
lights in the house. On the Hanukah
evenings, therefore, it has long been
the custom to indulge in games and
other pastimes, but no game was per-
mitted to be played for money. Han
ukah is an occasion for much joyous
ness and festivity, especially by the
the younger folk. During the eight
days of the feast, the Hallel, or service
of praise, is included in the prayers,
and there is also a special prayer in

MUGG ON PATENT MEDICINE
Well known Specialist Advises the
Use of Patent Medicines.

c. G. Mugg: The Fargo Forum said
that DR.. Healy is after those who had
been poisoned by patent medicines but
l never heard of anyone being pois-
oned, though I did hear of person
being temporarily paralyzed by an ov-
erdose of Hostetter's Bitters, but the
next day he developed appendicitis
symptoms with a great desire to get
out doors. At that time, as the disease
was not invented, he escaped an op-
Grafton and is yet alive. 1 have found
rock and rye a very efficacious and
satisfactory remedy. Patent medicine
serves wise and economical purpose
as 1 believe that 20 per cent of all
sickness is purely psychological, and
dose of anything that you think will
help to cure will do SO. Through
faith thou shall be saved" and faith in
some patent. medicine is less expen-
sive than faith in some doctors. All!
That may be the rule; my advice is
drink more patent medicines.

circular has been sent to every
teacher in the state by the depart
ment presided over by Superintendent
of Public Instruction Stockwell and
Deputy Taylor. 1t calls attention to
the meeting of the North Dakota Ed
ucational association in Fargo, Dec
ember 1928, as follows:
What is your attitude to the other
teachers of North Dakota? In the

been abandoned as obsolete by every
body of intelligent workers in the civ
ilized world? Is any large thing done

operation?
The man who is sufficient unto him
self and says he doesn't need the
association is anti-social. If all men
were like him, it is evident there would
be no teachers association or organ
izations of any kind.
Here are some classes of teachers
who refuse to cooperate with the
state association of teachers:
The teacher who knows It all. No
arguments avail for this type and none
will be attempted. e.
The ungenerous teacher-whe is in
teaching for the money and who will
not spend dollar for helping the
whole body.
The envious teacher and malcontent.
His name hasn't ap. cared on the pro-
gram-and he won't play-so there!
The poor teacher. Alas! there are
too many of them who can't really af.
ford to spend an extra dollar-but it
is false economy to select this point
for saving. Every thing that helps to
make the association big force in
the state helps to eliminate the causes

cheers show their good will to those
who do go to the expense of attend
ing-by at least sending their dollar
or two dollars for membership in the
association; for any improved condi-
tions which the efforts of the associa-
ton brings about will be enjoyed by
every teacher Of the state alike.
The Work OF All.
1t has suggested improved school
methods to hundreds of teachers of the
study, reading circles, and papers and
discussions. 1t has pioneered for i'm.
portant school legislation such as
removing school matters from politi-
cal Affiliations; establishing a mini
mum wage for all teachers Of the state
urging a high code of professional
ethics; enlarging and improving in
stitutes and summer schools, suggest
ing legislation for better conditions of
buildings and grounds and regulating
athletics, etc.
1t Is not claimed that the associa-
ton alone brings these things about
but it suggests them, backs up the
steering committee and gives encour-
agement to all helpers in the cause.
But up to this time not 10 per cen.
of the teachers of the state have Joined
the association. This is a disgrace to
our intelligence. Let us all pull to-
gether this time and all who possibly
can, come to the Fargo meeting, send
your dues to the treasurer and join
by letter. The prin,ed column of the
proceedings furnished all active men,

Some time ago Mrs. Apple had
sore hand and the medicine she
used was also put up in tablets
