DAY OF A1oNEMENT.
Hottest Day OF Jewish Calendar Cele
brated in Topeka Today.

Observance of the Day of Atonement,
the hottest day in the Jewish calendar,
began Tuesday night throughout the
world. and today is holiday with all
orthodox Jews everywhere. Many
Jewish business houses in Topeka are
closed today in observance Of the holi-
day and religious services began in the
Topeka Jewish tabernacle Tuesday
evening at 6 o'clock.
History of the Day.
The Day of Atonement this year falls
on Wednesday, September 30. It's Bib
lical designation is Yom -Kippurim,
later shortened to Yom Kippur. Ac-
cordfng to Biblical tradition 1t is one
of the cycle of holidays instituted by
Moses; for We find it mentioned in
Leviticus xiii. 1852. in the list of holi-
days. Its ceremonial is described in
Lev. xvi, it's sacrifices in Numbers
xxx, I'll.
However. the Day of Atonement is
,pot sasSs4dsa. an the sac54fteial aefxica
destruction of the Temple in the year
20. when sacrifices were abolished, the
Day of gAtOnement was able to survive.
and Of all the holidays of the Jewish
calendar it has most completely held
its own in the hearts and observance of
the Jewish people. Emphasis was laid
upon confession. penitence, prayer and
flicting ones sour' Usaiah lviii, 3, 50,
which was interpreted as meaning fast
ing from the eve of Atonement until the
following evening. AS in the Biblical
ceremonial confession continues to be
an important feature of the service;
yet, while confession brings forgiveness
of sins between man and man are not
forgiven until redress is made for the
injury. The eve of Atonement Day,
therefore, becomes the occasion for the
cessation of feuds and ill-will. And the
Day of Atonement is known as the
Sabbath Of Sabbaths-when we are at
peace with all the world.
The services of the Day of Atonement
beginning with Kill Nidre service on the
eve OF Atonement is continuous one
throughout the entire doy The pray
ers in the Synagogue are intoned in
plalnt1ve penitential tones. The spirit
OF the mastery sermon of Isaiah Us.
wi. 40, which is the prophetical por-
ton of the mornings reading, is mani
tested throughout.
