Y0M KIPPUR OBSERVED
BY iSRAEiITE CITIZENS
Last Sunday Ushered in the HoIiest
Period of Year.

Last Sunday evening at O'Clock
ushered in the Day of AtonemeEt, the
day most holy to the Jew in his entire
religious calendar, and which marked
the completion of the penitential period
of 10 days beginning with the New
Years day.
From that hour until O'clock the
next day. the devout Israeiites, even
those who were remiss in their church
attendance, observed the great white
fast and gave himself to prayer and di-
vine services. Not drop of water or
morsel of food passed their lips and the
people of Israel purged their souls for
their sins of the past year, The Bibli
cal ceremonial mentioned in several in
stances as the Day of Awe and Day of
Atonement, has been somewhat changed
in the modern Judaism to emphasize
repentance and personal prayer for the
forgiveness of each individual SHINING
soul.
The celebration of the day, which is
always the most largely attended SER
vices of the year, began with the OPEN
ing anthem, Koi Nidre, at O'Clock Sun
day evening at the Synagogue, Rabbi
Halprin officiating. The Kol Nidre
hymn is possibly the most ancient
church hymn known.
Ga Monday n orning at 1890 o'clock
the services began and continued un-
til sunset.

|ELABORATf SET OF
SCHOOL BUILDING PLANS


When the City Fathers assembled at
their October session Tueeday evening,
Supt. Saunders and Trustees S r Kees-
Ter and r G King. of the City Schools,
presented set Of plans for the new
building to be erected on the city's lot
just north Of the jefferson Davis School.
The set Of plans we're the most elabo-
rate and perfect in every detail that
has ever been seen, and it was the con-
sensus Of the Trustees and Council that
advertisements be made for bids to as
certain the cost of the structure &C.
cordance with the plans exhibited.
The structure will be q three story
building, including the basement, and
will contain the most modern facilities
in the State. The basement will hold
the gymnasium, boiler room, toilets,
shower baths, domestic science and
manual training rooms and other ac-
cessories.
The second hoor, with four entrances,
the main entrance to front ON Church
street, will contain . commodios audi
torium with gallery and large stage and
dressing rooms, splendid step connsc-
lions and six class rooms. Convenient
halls and cloak rooms, etc., are dotted
over the floor.
The top floor will contain commdios
study hall, with recitations, four on
each side of study hall, which is neces-
sAry for the present high school. Room
is given here for the extension of the
gallery to the main auditorium, to
which ACCESS is given. Spotted over
the building are Offices and rest rooms
for the faculty, storage capacity. Ii
brary, music hall, elocution ROOM
every thing that comprises the makeup
of the most modern high scoool.
With returns from the advertisement
for bids, the authorities will be in
better position to proceed, but it is
hoped that the plans exhibited Tuesday
evening can be carried out and come
within the amount for which bonds will
be issued as ordered at q recent meet
ing Of the Council.
Matters are greatly congested at the
Jefferson Davis School, and the new
building will not come too early. 1t is
hoped that the new building can be
made ready for occupancy at the 1872
1918 session, as the library, auditorium,
superintendents ofice-every available
hole in the wall-are filed with stu
dents, notwithstanding that the North
Greenwood School has taken gOodly
number Of their attendance.

HURT THIS MAN.
YaZ00 Farmer Tries Diversified Grops
With Good Results.

jackson, Miss, Sept. 30.-With a
majority of the farmers of Mississippi
demoralized by the invasion of the boil
weevil, e W Brister, planter living in
the southeastern portioA of Yazoo coun-
ty. is happy alter having gathered one
Of the most profitable crops ever raised
on his extensive plantation. The weevil
made their appearance in his neighbor-
hood two years ago and he began pre-
pairing for them by planting something
of everything that farm can produce,
and in addition began breeding cattle
and hogs.
The result of this preparation is that
Brister will make this year 60 per cent.
of the cotton he made last year. But
he has thousands of bushels of corn,
tons Of the finest hay. hundreds of bush
els of peas, potatoes and beans, and in
addition 147 as fine hogs As were ever
raised in Mississippi. He has enough
food for man and beast for two years.
He has installed q steam thresher and
grist mill on his plantation, has sold
two wagon loads Of fine oats at Yazoo
City, and with traction engine he il
now preparing his land for fall and
winter crop of oats.
So far from being discouraged by the
invasion of the pest, Brister has already
arranged to keep every bit of labor on
his farm another year, and expects to
make more money for them and him
self under the diversidcation plan than
he has ever made before. A visit to his
farm is intere sting and instructive. He
says he knows Of no method by which
the boll weevil can be exterminated,
but that he has solved the problem a.
to how to combat the pest.
