THE JEWISH SABBATH.
tie Influence on the Habits Of tho Hs.
brew Children,

brew Children.
The Hebrew Sabbath, including its
complicated preparations. is rich and
impressive material for child's imagi-
nation. On Thursday evening the
mother already prepares dough, goes
to market, cleans the fish, etc, says
the American Hebrew.
In the morning comes the baking of
schales" (bread). How bewitching for
child to watch the mother making
different shapes of dough, smearing It
with egg and decorating 1t with braids
Of different shapes and forms. A Jew
ish child gets the first lesson in model
Ing by making make believe "chales."
In the evening the mother prepares
to meet the Sabbath. The child par
takes in the household occupations
and therefore gets habits of industry,
order and regard for the rights and
IDEAS of others and the fundamental
habit of subordinating his activities to
the general interest of the household.
This Is especially true in regard to
Jewish households where everything
seems to he prescribed by law. Before
darkness sets in on Friday the house,
wife lights in the dining room extra
candles or special lamp in honor of
Sabbath and reads the blessing.
Quite often !: child not vet able to
talk will cover its face with its little
palms, imilatin. the gestures of the
devoted mother. The returning from.
the synagogue, the appreciativc greet
Ing Good Sabbath" the Kiddush. the
blessing over wine. the special menu
and the holiday Spirit of ali who par
tlcipate have undoubtedly a soothing.
bcneicent influence upon the child.
After supper the time is spent in rest.

{. NAdPc Slop was SilUiC
stas 'sSssx.ssF
Grapes only made aboutF one
fourth of a crop in the Council
Bluffs territory this year. The
usual average is a hundred cars,
but this year only twenty-five
cars were shipped. Across the
river the crop was shorter than
here, only a car and a half be-
ing supplied from Omaha.
The crop is handled by the
Council Bluffs Grape Growers
association. This organization
includes practically all the
growers in the territory.
Membership costs $40, and each
member gets a share of stock
for his membership fee. These
are worth par or more, conse-
quently the membership really
costs nothing.
Grape growing is a more i'm
portant industry in this terri
tory than most people might
think. An average crop sells
for more than 100000, and the
profit to individual growers is
sometimes more than $500 per
acre. Three years ago w. S.
keeline Melted more than this
amount. A thousand baskets
to the acre is considered an
average yield. Three thousand
baskets make a carload. Good
prices were realized this year,
so the net loss was not so great,
if the crop was short.-Council

Chase Lister Company.

i chase Lister Company.
The opening performance Of
the Chase Lister Company at
the Harrison theatre last night
was fully appreciated by one of
the largest audiences in the
history of the theatre. Clint
and Bessie Robbins gave a new
line of specialties and as usual
were called back again and
again. Mr.. and Mrs. Robbins
have a host of friends here,
having visited this city a num-
Der of times during their vaca-
tions and they are always glad
to play Mo Valley. The play
las. evening was an exception
ally strong drama, with just
enough fun and plot to it to
make it interesting. The cast
is composed of first class actors
and they will undoubtedly
show some very fine plays
during their weeks engagement
in this city. This is the 9Th
annual appearance of the Chase
Lister Company in this city
and they are always favorites
to the show going patrons.
The play tonight, "The Red
Circle" promises to be an ex-
ceptionally fine show, showing
the life of the "black hand"
gang in politics and other
walks in life.

Fred A. Cope, of Des Moines:
1t is to the credit of the Ameri-
can people that the old private
or tutoring school is fast disap-
pearing and giving way to the
public school. Up until the
last ten years, the private
school was considered by many
rich,people as the only place
which the children of the
"aristocratic" families should
attend. 1t was the common
belief several years ago that to
allow your children to mingle
with the pupils of the public
school was an outrage if one
were sufficiently we'll to dn 70
send them to a private scl4o.i
This idea has now been de-
stroyed and it is evidence of
the increasing feeling of de-
mocracy that now prevails.

and the original plans for the
trip could be successfully car
ried out and we hope they will.
The weather is fine, the roads
are in excellent condition
let's make the trip and boost
our town as we'll as the Normal
and Commercial school. 1t
would be an excellent way in
which to advertise the Normal
School Dedication Day. Chron-
icle.
About a dozen autos from the
Valley, loaded with the pushers
of that town, took dinner in
town Tuesday, fifty or sixty
strong and did a little boosting
for the Harrison county fair
next week in the Valley. They
had a strong band along, and
treated Woodbine people to a
few samples of their music.
The only thing about it that
didn't suit some of our people
was the fact they didn't send
any word of their coming, and
the report Tuesday forenoon
that they would be here at
noon was not very extensively
noised about, otherwise we
might have had a crowd out to
greet the boosters.
The bunch made a very good
showing and no doubt the trips
they took will result in increas-
ing the attendance at the fair.
-Twiner.
Those Mo. Valley Boosters
passed through Logan, Tues
day evening on their dust col
lecting tour of the county.
The party carried more good
old Harrison county soil in a
pulverized state than any SINH
lar bunch of travellers we have
ever seen. They all seemed to
appreciate the fact that it was
good stuff and worth lots of
money for they did not take
time here to get rid of any of
it.
The telephone advised Logan
people at about what time the
cars would leave Woodbine and
a number of auto loads went
out to the Lowery Wilson place
to meet the visitors, and con-
Quoted them to town, not that
they needed conducting espec-
tally, for they seemed to be
doing very we'll and getting
along nicely, but the Logan
fellows wanted to get some of
the dust that was in circula-
ton and also desired to be sure
that our friends would not
miss the town and get by with
out a cordial greeting and hand
shake. When they arrived
lemonade was passed and after
a selection by the band which
the Boosters" brought with
them, they were welcomed by
c. w. Hunt as acting Mayor.
He gave them a hearty well
come and asked them to come
again. The welcome was re-
pended to by A. B. Hosbrook,
who said they were glad TO be
here. and they wanted to see
the Logan people at the Harri-
son county Fair Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday of next
week at Missouri Valley. At
ter the elocutionary efforts the
excursionists left town by the
new court house on the way to
their home town.
We believe those excursions
are good things. We would
like to see more of them. Lo-
gan should get out and visit
che neighborirg towns, and
above all things she should at
tend the fair this year. They
are trying to make the Fair
representative of Harrison
county and Logan people are
willing and anxious to help all
good things along so they
should help the Fair by their
presence and encouragement.

the No. Valley
Booster Expe-
ditiOn
Fifteen automobiles carrying
about sixty of Missouri Valleys
best boosters came into Logan.
Tuesday afternoon about $50.
Through the telephone sys-
tenn, President of the State
Savings bank, w. H. johnson,
kept the Logan people in touch
of the location of the boosters.
Finally he gave out the word
that they had left Woodbine.
About forty of Logan's bust
ness men in automobiles went
about three miles and met the
boosters and led them into Lo.
gan.
After quenching their thirst
with lemonade, c. w. Hunt,
secretary of the Harrison coun-
ty Mutual, in we'll chosen
words welcomed them to Lo-
gan, saying that it was an in
dication that good feeling ex-
listed between the two towns
and that they would find Lo-
gan we'll represented at the
fair this fall.
On behalf of the boosters,
Mr.. A. B. Hosbrook responded
to Mr.. Hunts talk in a very
pleasing manner. He extend.
ed us all a very hearty invita-
ton to visit the fair.
They were a friendly lot of
men with whom it was a pleas
ure to meet. They carried be-
sides cards and advertising
souvenirs a band of their own.
After music from their band,
the boosters departed about six
O'Clock for their homes.
Come again boys, you will al
ways find a welcome hand at
Logan Gazette.
About fifteen autos, bearing
the Mo. Valley boosters, arrived
here at 4 p. M, Tuesday and
they sure were boosters. They
carried the Mo. Valley cornet
bard along and gave several
we'll rendered selections, fol
lowed by a short speech by A..
B Hosbrook. Fred Beebee, of
Reebeetown, was their path
finder Dunlap Reporter.
The Mo. Valley Boosters,
twenty autos strong were in
town Monday afternoon adver-
tising the county fair and in
cidentally their own business.
They carried a band with them.
1t seemed good to meet this
bunch, and if they will pardon
us-a good thing for them to
shake the dust of their own
city off their shoes and visit
some of the other good towns
in the county. The social spirit
is one of the oft overlooked es-
sentials to good business rela-
lions. Come again, but let us
know when your coming and
we will show you how to do
things W. right in Little Sioux.
Hustler.
Well, the Missouri Valley
Boosters arrived Tuesday noon
as advertised and distributed
advertising matter for about
every business house in that
city. This trip was planned
for Friday Of last week, but as
it rained a night or two bet ore,
it was postponed until Tuesday.
The Mo. Valley boys make a
fine showing, however, having
thirteen machines in line filled
with boosters and plastered all
over with pennants, cards,
badges, flags etc. They
wrought along their band, and
. we're given a concert in the
s.. t, while the boosters were
cirt 'ating among the people
of the city, renewing old ac-
quaintances and forming new
ones.
Just before leaving town the
boosters" and their band visit

given for the benefit of the
students and faculty after
which they pulled out of town
amid many cheers and much
noise for their next stop Dun
