Speed at Annapolis.

At the annual Field and Track
meet at the Naval Academy at Ann
apolis, Walter Eisenach of Ely, class
of III, received honors of which he
can justly feel proud.

everything he entered. In the pre-
liminary, Walter made the 100 yard
dash in 10 AS, and the 220 yard dash

fifth of a second off the 100 yard time
and lost in the 220 yard event.

about 20 points, having made 81, the
nearest competitor securing 81.

High School track team, until he
went to Annapolis, and was also a
member of the Ely Fire Department

YOM KIPPUR
Important Jewish New Year
Holiday.

From sunset Tuesday evening until
sunset Wednesday, the Jews remained
in their houses of Worship. praying
and touching neither food nor drink,
in observance of the final festival
days of the Jewish New Year, Yom
Kippur.
The orthodox Jews observe the fast
for twenty fours, clad in the white
tunics, which usually clothe the dead.
Only the finger tips are washed dur
ing the hours of fasting and major
ity remain in the church throughout
the night. The worshipers wear no
shoes. at sunset Wednesday, the
book of fate is closed, and some of the
worshipers are fated for death while
others are to live another year.
The Yom Kippur celebration is the
most important of the Jewish year
and is generally observed. Hebrews
living in small towns where there are
no synagogues went to the cities to
take part in the exercises. The rules
of the creed provide that no congre-
CATION can hold services unless there
are ten males of more than Is years,
present.
On every one of the ten days of the
New Years observances, a Sleeps
horn is blown 100 times and also once
during Yom Kippur, at the conclusion
of the ceremonies.
The centra. idea of the New Years
holidays is to make amends with God
for the bad deeds done during the
past twelve months, pray and make
promises of better conduct in the flu
ture. Quite contingent of Hebrews
from the ranges were in Duluth to
take part in the celebration.

could put up some kind of sho wing.
The High School boys are anxious
to organize team this year. There
is some good material in the school
and with some stiff training they
ought to shape into fast bunch.
Coach jenkins called the team out
Wednesday and about twenty candi-
dates were on hand for the first prac-
tice.
Most all the boys of last years

that they must hustle if they expect
to keep their old positions, for there
is plenty of new material on hand.
