HOMAGE TO GOD
 FOR ALL BLESSINGS
RABBI NEWFIELD EXPLAINS SIG-
 NIFICANCE OF FEAST OF TABER- NACLES-TIME OF THANKFUL NESS FOR THE HARVESTS

Services in commemoration of the Temple Emanuel last night at o'clock by Rabbi Morris Newfeld. who after the ritual had been completed addressed the congregation on An Ap- peal to Progress" which he said was the real significance of the Feast of Tabernacles as applied to modern con- ditions.
 Pilgrim with me back, in memory over the centuries to Palestine" said pr. Newfeld. Picture gathered there multitude of fervent worshipers seeking to do homage to God from whom all blessings flow. Whatever ot luscious fruitage the fertile fields of Palestine nurtured into life Is heaped up as a thanks offering from a grate- full people to generous God. Under the vaulted canopy of heaven, where nature sings perpetual hymn ol praise, where earth and sky are daily witnesses in thousands of forms to Gods goodness and greatness. there the vast multitude turns, as if by one impulse moved to offer their praise and prayer and their gratitude to that God who sends the dew and the rain who makes life in the seed, and who fills the soil with the precious instinct of motherhood.
 There can be no question but tha, the feast which we commemorate now was anciently a most joyous celebra- ton of the harvest. It was primarily thanksgiving harvest, and as such was universally observed by our an cestors to whom 1t appealed even In the force of the biblical injunction Thou shalt rejoice on this feast. Hevit- icus xxiiD, for they were tillers of the soil. With their rude implements they labored to woo from the hard soil of Palestine the precious fruitage of the field and orchard; and when they gathered for their annual harvest festival they needed no special com

TON|GHT'S RALLY IS
 AT SEVEN O'CLOCK Reunited Democracy Is Wag
 ing the Battle PROMINENT SPEAKERS Conner, O'NeaI, Senator Johnston and Congressman Hefiin Are Among the speakers-wilI Be Held at
 Jefferson Theatre
PROMINENT SPEAKERS

At o'clock tonight one of the most representative groups of speakers that ever addressed a Birmingham audience will mount the stage at the Jefferson theatre to discuss the issues of the day and to propound democratic principles. | The early hour is set to allow several speakers to catch trains and make other engagements in various parts of the state.
 Each speaker will be limited to 20 min utes so that the programme will not be long, but pithy and interesting. Colonel Jesse Stallings, chairman of the state campaign committee, will preside. The speakers include two governors, B. B. Conner and Emmet o'Neal. a United States senator. Joseph F. Johnston, United States congressman. J. Thomas Heflin, and L. Fl. Jeffries, an orator from Selma.
 The invitation of the committee extends to every voter in the county, and large crowd is expected. Special invitations have been addressed to number or prominent Alabamians asking them to occupy places on the stage. The gather ing is really the first bomb thrown in Jefferson county, and will be followed by speakings in all parts of the county.
 The rally is in the interest of the state democratic ticket. It is expected to show conclusively a reunited democracy with common front to the opporition. The fact that Governor Comer H. 8. D. Nal ory. L. E. Jeffries. and many prominent leaders of the amendment fight are cam paigning the state in the interest of the ticket is taken to mean that Alabama is in line with democracy all over the coun- try, looking forward to a wave which will sweep the party into power.

mand bidding them rejoice in the spe- cial relaxation from their toll. To them the harvest festival was vocal with a vital appeal not merely of joy but also of the dignity of labor and of rest But to us living in the modern day the celebration of a harvest fes- tival in this busy city life of ours cannot have the power of a personal appeal and individual experience. We would only delude ourselves in the be- lief that we celebrate this festival by declaring 1t to be a feast of joy and harvest
 ,"Would we make our celebration also vocal with a message of vitality we must re-clothe it. and draw from 1t such inspiration as will appeal to us of this day and environment"
 In making the applica ton of the booth" or tabernacle" to modern ideals Dr. Newfield said that the booth was symbolical of progress in that 1t was anciently structure which could be easily moved to newer and better environment where the conditions were more alluring, and where natural re- sources were greater for the susten- ance of life and for growth.
 The musical programme, which was especially arranged for the occasion, had among its numbers Lord of All Did Reign Supreme" the opening an them. sung by MT. Wyatt Heflin and quartet; Draw Nigh to Me Ye Weary" sung by MT. Gillespie and quartet, and Now Thank We All Our Lord" The services will be continued this morning at 1O:3O o'clock and after the services there will be a distribution to the children of the fruits which are used as decorations.

Dear Daddy Jim and Cousins
Some Of you move back and make
room for another little Georgia girl.
I am fourteen years old and nearly
five feet tall. Have fair complexion,
blue eyes and dark hair. Father
takes the weekly Jeffersonian, which
is one of the most welcome papers
that are ever brought into our house.
I like the Postcard Club best of all.
I especially enjoy reading the letters
on Compulsory Education, and I
think the Sunny South Brotherhood
is a fine thing. I hope it will &C
complish much good, and I believe it
will. 1 don't think it is right to send
our money to foreign countries when
it can go to help the poor and needy
at home. | like to go to school and
always like my teachers very much
I am in the seventh grade. My school
begins September 10Th. I certainly
do dread being away from home. I
do not know any riddles except those
which have already been asked, so
will try my luck on answering some.
