JEWISH PASSOVER
BEGINS TOMORROW
Services at Temple Emanu-
Ell Monday Evening and
Tuesday Morning

The Jewish feast of the Passover will
begin tomorrow evening and viii continue
one week. At Temple EMANUEL services
will be held Monday evening at o'clock
and Tuesday morning at 1920 o'clock.
An explanation of the feast prepared
by the Central conference of American
ratbi is as follows:
Passover has, from remote antiquity.
been taken to commeroate the deliveranee
of the Israelites from Egypt after 43O
years of bitter servitude. The account
of the suffer.ngs of the Israelites and
of their liberation occupies the first Ii
chapters OF the Book of Exodus.
"Complaint with the Biblical command
tExodus xii. 19l. the observant jew, dur
ing the Passover week, abstains strictly
from the use of ali leavened substances.
Instead of the ordinary yeast bread, a
species of large cracker called Matzoth
or unleavened bread is eaten.
Before Passover arrives. the observant
jew scrupulously removes from his pren1-
ises every crumb of leaven that he is
able to find. Sooner would he undergo
great privations than touch a morsel OF
over week, the Jew of rigid orthodox,
will not even use the same dishes and
utensils in which, during the rest of the
year, Ieavened food has been placed.
while the entire week is festive in I'll
nature. the large public gatherings fol
Passover worship take place in the syna.
gogues only at the beginning of the Pass
over week and at the end. Orthodox
Jews have two days of 'holy convocation'
at either extreme, while Reform Jews OBJ
serve only one day at either extreme
Perhaps the most significant and beau
tiful aspect of the Passover celebration
Is the service which Is held within tn,
Jewish home on the first evening of the
feast: among orthodox Jews. upon th
first and second evenings.
The members of the family and thei
guests sit around the supper table which
is spread with festive elegance. Upon tn,
table are the bitter herbs and the roast
ed shank hone. the egg, the parsley, thy
bowl of salt water, the unleayened bread
or rather chanted from a curious ol'
! book called the Higgadah.' which tells
with not a little wit, humor. pathos and
sublimity about the deliverance from
| Egypt, giving thanks for the great ae
of divine mercy, In many psalm am
| hymn.
For the benefit of large numbers o
Jews who no longer understand Hebrew
attempts have been made TO translate
the 'Haggadah' into English. But IL |:
doubtful whether the best of translatious
can preserve the quaint charm of tht
| original.
| ''As rule, the topic for pulpit disquisi
| ton on Passover--partcularly in thu
| Reform synagogues where preaching il
a regular feature of the services-is som
| thought related to the theme of liberty.
| On Passover. above all other festivals
| the Jew finds the traditions of his re
'lgion in striking accord with the ideal
Of American lfe."

EVIDENCE THROUGH
AN INTERPRETER
Government Suing Boston
Concern Who Brings
Greeks Here for Work

Considerable work is connected with
the taking of evidence by Immigrat Tx
aminer Seraphic In the case which the
United States government has brought
against the Dwight Manufacturing COM
pany of Boston, charging illegal impor-
tation of foreigners for labor pur-
poses.
Many witnesses. mostly Greeks, who
1t is claimed have been imported by the
Dwight company from Smyrna and
worked in the big cotton mill operated
by the company at Alabama City, are
being examined and all the evidence
has to be taken by means of an in
terpreter. Judge r. B. Watts is pre-
siding over the hearing, Attorney Frank
Knowlton of Boston representing the
defendant company.
The evidence will all be taken to Bos-
ton and used there when the case ac-
tually comes to trial. The defendant
company is charged with making con-
tracts with these foreigners in their
native country and bringing them here
for manual labor In their factories, the
company being immense concern
operating under very large capital
ization.
heavy fine is the penalty for such
acts as the Dwight company is charged
with, and as about 135 or lao foreign
ers are involved in the case a large
sum of money will be collected by the
government in case the suit is Won

TWO DAYS OF GRAND MUSIC
IN THIS CITY NEXT MONTH
Mrs Adrich and Christine Miller Both Appear With Cncin
natl Symphony Orchestra Opening Night-Miss Miller
Also Second Elizabeth Cunningham at Matinee

Naturally great interest is felt in mu-
sical and social circles in the forthcom-
ing symphony concerts at the Jefferson
theatre by the Cincinnati orchestra-one
of the few great orchestras of this coun-
try. There will be two night concerts
Monday, May 8. and Tuesday, May 6, and
a matinee on Tuesday afternoon. Miss
Edgell Adams. who is managing these
entertainments. says that there may pos
sibly be an extra matinee on Monday
afternoon.
1t used to be that Birmingham had the
opportunity of hearing at least one SYM
pfony orchestra during the winter sea-
son, but within the past year or two
high class symphony organizations have
been available in the south only in the
spring. and but for the public spirited
citizens who are subscribing to the Gin.
cinnati orchestra guarantee fund this
season would pass without a single sym.
phony concert in Birmingham.
In addition to the symphonic music
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-04-20


there will be brilliant solo numbers on
each programme. On the opening night
Mrs. Truman Aldrich, Jr., will play the
Grief concerto with the orchestra and

rity, VIII be heard here for the first time.
When announcement of the concerts was

says that every one of them will be
taken for the first night and probably
OF the second night also.

THREE WOMEN ON
LIBRARY BOARD
Believed Appointments Will
Be Made ShOrtly-Given
Unusual Powers

According to the general impression
at the city hall there will be three wom-
en- and six men appointed to take over
the operation of the libraries of Br-
mingham. The commissioners are en-
gagged in looking into a list of eligi-
BILE women and men of Birmingham and
it is believed that appointments will
be made within a short time.
The speculative idea that women were
to be members of the board has been
shattered by the positive statement
that at least three members of the
board will be women. The new library
board Will have unusual powers and
will have complete control of a sys-
tenn of municipal work with ready
money upon which to operate. The
library board will succeed the board
of education in this work within a
short time 1t is understood.
