By Sara Katz.

Chanuka brings us to a late
period in Israel's history, when
it's course, as a nation, was al
most run.
Our ancestors were no longer
completely independent, but
were subject to other powers
at this particular moment, to
Syria.
In the year It's B. C. E., about
two thousand years ago, Antio-
chus Epiphanes, a cruel tyrant,
came to the throne, and COM

HERZL LODGE B'NAI
BIRTH DAY

Herzl lodge No. 608, Indepen-
dent Order B'nai Birth, cele-
brated B'nai Birth day Sunday
night at Adath Yeshurun syna-
gogue, at Jackson street and
Walker avenue, and the very at
tractive program was in strict
keeping with the spirit of the oc-
casion.
The first number was a his
torical sketch of Herzl lodge,
read by E. Goldberg, in which
every detail involved in the or
ganization of the lodge from it's
first conception by M. Stark,
Sr., to proceedings up to date,
were given. The motto of the
lodge is benevolence, brotherly
love and harmony, and to this
end Mr.. Goldberg's account
shows the motives of the organi-
cation to have been directed,
some $4,000 having been spent
for charitable purposes since the
date of it's first existence, three
years ago.
Rabbi Henry Barnstein was
next with a very interesting adj
dress, dealing with number of
matters of much import to the
Jew of today. DIR. Barnstein's
words left an impress upon the
minds of those who heard him.
One idea which he endeavored
to present was in effect that
many Hebrews do not stand up
for their religion as they should,

airy matrons, Mrs. H. Kern was
elected in her stead.
The Twenty-fifth anniversary
of the Home was celebrated,
with due honors, on the 18th day
of January, 1880, with Rev. Jas.
X. Gutheim, as the distinguished
orator.
The charter of the Associa-
ton, which was to have a dura-
ton of twenty-five years, dating
from March 18th, 1856, eXpir-
ing, a special meeting of the AS
ISOLATION was called for March
7th. The president submitted a
new charter, prepared by com
mite of the board of directors.
Article 1 of the new charter
changes the Article l in the old
charter, which reads:
"The object of the society be-
ing of a charitable nature, to-
wit: To establish an asylum to
receive, under it's care and sup
port, INDECENT Hebrew widows,
as, also, to receive, foster, pro
vide for, maintain and instruct
Jewish orphans and half or
phans, of both sexes, into the
following"
The object of the society is of
a charitable character, to wit
To continue the Asylum, estab-
lished by the herein first named
Association, with the only ex-
ception, expressed in the afore-
said resolutions, respecting the
admission of widows as inmates
that is, to receive under its
care, foster and provide for
maintain and instruct Jewish
orphans and half orphans OF
both sexes.
The charter, as amended, was
adopted at the meeting, although
several members protested
against the alteration of the ar
ticle which refers to the object
of the society regarding widows
and gave notice that they would
move for a reconsideration at /;
subsequent meeting, to b.
called for that purpose.

give up it's own observances.
You have already been told of
the nation of the heather re-
ligions, and how they encour-
aged certain sins instead of con-
demning them.
The Jews, as they were called
at this time, refused to abandon
the noble faith it was their duty
to cherish. In spite of dreadful
persecution, many were pre-
pared to be true to the God of
their fathers, even though it cost
them their lives. When the
cause seemed almost lost and
the blood of many men had been
shed, great man, named Maui
theos, gave them new courage
by his heroic example. One of
his sons, Judas, called Macca-
beus, a brave warrior and a
great general, gathered a few
scattered Jews under his banner,
and in spite of the vast army
of the powerful enemy, he dared
to meet them on the field of war.
But what Israel lacked in num-
bers they made up in heroism.
They knew they were fighting
for the right, and that grand
thought gave them courage to
conquer their foes in battle after
battle. So completely were the
Syrians defeated that, under Ju-
das Maccabeus, the Jews re-
gained their independence about
1853 B. C. E.
Joyfully they returned to Je-
rusalem, their capital, from
which they fled in despair. The
temple that Antiochus had de-
filed was purified and rededicat-
ed.
The Hebrew for dedication is
Chanuka.
The feast is celebrated for
eight days. In the evening
lights are kindled. This has
given it a second name, "Feast
of Lights" Although occurring
late in our history, after it's in
situations were supposed to be
completed (for which reason
it was called Minor Feast), it
deserves to be classed among
our great festivals. For it is
one of the most important Incl
dents in our past, and one of the
most glorious. On the success
of the Maccabeeans depends not

Indian School Closes.

Tuesday and says the school closes

Mr.. Locke says the present COM
missioner of Indian affairs advocates
manual training instead Of so much
book learning for the Indians, and
is in favor Of closing the big schools
like Carlisle, where so much money
is expended to give them advanced
education that only takes them far
'ther from nature and farther into
things that are impractical to them.

of all the Indian schools, was here
not long ago, and expressed much
satisfaction with the practical re-
suits achieved under the present

The time has passed when the ed

by his supposed to be, more practi-

The agricultural schools and expert
mental schools of the states have
done a great deal toward bringing
the profession of farming to scien-
tific principles. Time was when the
farmer titled his soil and planted his
seed by the signs OF the Zodiac with
no particular attention to seed
and incubation of soils,
his sons who have attended agricul-
tural schools are better farmers.
They have learned that the farmer
who farms with his head as well as
his hands is the successful man. The
