JEWS CELEBRATE HOLIDAY
synagogues Thronged With Wor.
shippers to Hear Sermons.

Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Years
Day, was ushered in last night in every
Jewish household in the city, and by
special religious observances in all the
synagogucs. Today is the first day of
the holiday, which will last until sunset
tomorrow and will inaugurate the fall
cycle of of"Jewish holidays Tho syna-
gosues were thronged with worshipers
last night. and special sermons were
preached at all the temples.
Rabbi Joseph Krauskopf preached his
first sermon at Keneseth Israel Broad
street and Montgomery avenue, since his
return from the European war zone. His
subject was The Failure of Our Civiliza-
tton.' He arraEned bitterly the Christian
nations Of Europe, and said that the
peoples of Europe, In entering upon the
bloodiest combat of history, have dealt
a death blow to the structure of Chris
tanity. The sermons in all the other
synaEogues were along the same line.
Rosh Hashana is followed in ten days
by "Yom Kippur," the Day of Atone
ment, which in turn is followed five days
later by "Succoth." the Feast of the
TabernaCles.
