FLUSHING MACHINES
GIVEN DEMONSTRATIONS

A demonstration of motor pressure
flushing machines was given this MORN
ing for the benefit of the o OF
Works, which body contemplates pur-
chasing three machines, and Is now
familiarizing itself with the various
types used throughout the country.
The two machines exhibited this
morning are, S~tudebakers, and consid-
/, cred the most powerful made. Gin
ton avenue, from Halsey to Broad
streets, was flushed, and the work ap-
peared to be satisfactory. The ma
chimes now Used by the city. are of the
air-pressure type n not as powerful.
One of the features of the motor ma
chine is the fact that it maintains an
even pressure regardless of the amount
OF. water in the tank or the force OF
the hydrant pressure.
The air machines depend for their
pressure on the force of the hydrant
pressure, and when about a hundred
gallons of water has been released the
pressure begins to fall, so that before
all the water is out of the tank the
pressure is very low.
The ~Studebaker can regulate the
pressure from five to sixty pounds, and
maintains it even though there be but
ten gallons of water in the tank. The
advantage of this method lies in the
fact that the power of the stream is
suing from the motor machine cleans
the streets more effectively than the
other types. 1t is said that the motor
type is slightly more expensive than
the others and costs about $S7 per day
to operate, this money being spent for
gasoline.
The tanks hold $50 gallons; the tanks
on the city wagons hold about 100 gall
Ions less. All the members of The
Board Of Works and officials were pres
ent at the exhibition, but did not COM
nit themselves as to the merits of this
type as compared with others. The
matter will be discussed at the board
meeting tomorrow.

WILL
OBSERVE 'PESACH'
FEAST TONIGHT
Special Services and Quaint OBJ
seryance of the Jewish
Passover.

The first feast of "Pesach," the Jew
ish passover, in conmemoration of the
deliverance of the Jews from Egypt,
will be held tonight in all the Jewish
homes. Beginning with this evening
there will be special services in all the
orthodox synagogues.
The quaint and curious charm of the
two feasts, on the first two nights of
the passover, can only be appreciated
when seen. After services in the syna-
sogues the family gathers at the table
each with the "Hagada," the story of
the Egyptian exodus in front of him.
One of the male children, at the begin
ming of the feast, asks the head of the
house. who sits in a reclining positio n
the following four questions: why DO
We on this night, unlike all other
nights, eat in a reclining position 2"
why do we eat 'matzoths p " why do
we eat bitter herbs?" and why eat
'charoses?'"
In answer, the head of the house.
accompanied by the rest of the fam
lily, reads out of the "Hagada," which
contains categorical answers to the
question incidental to the story itself.
The reclining position is symbolical of
iiOCl ~ IiCSuOii lIOIl IcStId III
matzoths, u~nleavened bread, the hard
ships the Jews suffered while in Egypt;
the bitter herbs to remind the Jews
that they were not always free, and
lest they become boastful and proud
of their free state; the charoses COM
posed of sweets and spices, the sweet
ness of liberty.
There is also served at those feasts
a hard boiled egg. This is symbolical
of immortality; the egg although ap-
pearing dead, has life.
"sederc Feast Observed.
This feast is called the "seder.' The
passover begins on the fourteenth day
of Nissan, the first month of the Jew
ish secular yea
The seder is entirely independent of
the services in the s~ynagogues.
At the time of the redemption from
Egypt unleavened bread, or 'matzoths,''
was eaten, and in commemoration of
this nothing but unleavened bread is
eaten during the eight days.
This is made of flour and water only.
Before the passover all the homes are
thoroughly cleaned of all dishes and
food thai might have been touched by
leavened bread during the year. So
thorough is this that an entirely new
set of dishes is used for the whole
eight days.
Nothing of any description that may
have been touched by bread or -four
during the rest Of the year must be
used during these eight days for food
and drink.
