THE JEWISH NEW YEAR


The Jewish New Year viii begin q
week from today, Wednesday evening
September 9Th, with solemn servics
in the temples and synagogue The
Thursday morning service comprises
more elaborate form of worship
and combines some vestiges Of anti
que ritual with expressions Of human
experiences and feelings true and real
for everybody and at all times
The Jewish New Years festival is
the oldest of all festivals celebrated
in the civilized world. But it II
unique for its significance as well m
for its antiquity. The secular New
Year (on January 1st) is a day Of
Qualifications; men rejoice in what
they have achieved; it is n day for
sordid inventories. The Jewish New
Years day, however, is a time for Sc
rious thought on the meaning Of life;
it evokes pious contemplation Of the
difficult and inevasible problem as 70
right and wrong and its appeal In
not that we should get more out Of
practical life but value more genuine
ly, more truthfulIy, more morally the
life God has entrusted to rs.
Much Of the success and failure Of
our work depend, not upon our equip
ment, but upon our motives. The Jew
ish New Years Day, accordingly, n
placed by a wise tradition at the be-
ginning of Autumn, when men enter
upon their enterprises and obligations
with zest and zeal. Just then they
need a right Interpretation Of life
and a true measure of it's values.
The antique features of the ritual
Of that day express the aspirations
all men feel equally. The trumpet
calls, constituting the central part in
the worship of that day are appeals
for the moral stir which men should
feel when they contemplate their ex-
periences and seek for re-enforce-
ment of their hopes. The calls are
also an appeal to the large sense Of
life. Our weekday wishes and
prayers are self-centered and do not
give US perspective Of our. relations
and obligations to the community
and feIlowman, and Of their influence
upon Us. But the New Years day Of
fers US an occasion to re-afirm our
respect for and trust in providencs
which is the organization Of all lives
into an all-encompassing justice. The
Jew comprehends this as a comfort
in the case of misfortunes and as mo-
milton in the successes he may have.
The function of the New Years day In
to establish a moral judgement in our
life and experiences.

MAKING SOME
Of THE MOTIONS
JUDGE PATTERSON AT MARIET-
IA MADE A STRONG CHARGE
TO THE JURY
tAssociated Press,

Marietta, Ga, Sept. Superior
Court Judge Patterson charged the
grand jury of the Blue Ridge circuit
today to investigate the "recent
lynching III this county," His charge
was extemporaneous. He didn't men
tion the name of Frank. The jury
will begin work on the case late to-
day. Thirty-five witnesses have been
called, according to the sheriff's of
flee. The judge told the jury he did
not want them to be private detec-
tives or secret service men, but to
ferret out any crime brought to their
attention.

FUN FOR ALL
THE FANS
ALL TURN OUT TO SEE THE
HOMEMADE GAME TOMOR-
ROW AFTERNOON

All Ocala baseball patriots will go
to Hunter Park to see the game to-
morro wafternoon. In the first place,
its going to be a great game. In
some ways, it will be the most inter
esting game played here this summer.
The contending teams will be made
up entirely of home talent, and there
will be doubly individual interest, a
twin interest, so to speak, on each
play.
In the second place, the baseball
association needs the money. 1t has
done more work this season than any
other season, and its receipts have
been small. 1t owes some on the
new grandstand, and in other ways
is in the hole. Let all the faithful
fans turn out and help it out.
Following is the line-ups (subject
to change) of the two teams:
First-Bullock c, Roy Galloway p,
Chazal Id, Bats 2b, Dinkins SIS,
Leavengood 3b, Anderson If, Sam
Burford cf, Blalock rf.
Second BARLEY C, Harris p, Ben
nett Id, Davis 2b, Bitch SIS, Dewey
3b, Jack Galloway If, Clark cf, w.
Burford rf.
All the champions will be out, with
one or two of the old-timers and
some of the comers. 1t will be a good
game. BE sure to see it.

ty. l believe we have one of the
best organized school systems of any
county in the state. We have at the
present time four fully accredited
senior high schools in the county,
while at the time of division we had
none. In my home town, Largo, when
Pinellas county was created four
years ago, we had a little three-room
frame school house employing three
teachers. Last year we built a very
handsome school building with four
teen rooms, large auditorium, with
halls, ETC., at cost of about $4,000,
and will this year employ eleven or
twelve teachers. / might add further
IN this connection that under Hills
boro administration of affairs we on
ly had a five months school term and
now we have eight months regular
and are paying our teachers on an
average of about 25 per cent more
salary than they received while we
were part of Hillsboro, and practi-
cally every community in this county
has made the same progress in their
schools as the one above referred to.
l might add further that our road
system has been wonderfully improv-
ed since the division. We have built
many new roads, and some expensive
bridges, and we are as we'll equipped
in this respect as any county in Flor
ida.
In conclusion | wish to say that
from the experience we have had in
Pinellas county that it has fully con-
vinced me that smaller counties are
best, as it brings the government
closer to the people and stimulates
pride in home affairs and tends to a
more rapid development generally,
and | believe our experience is the
experience of all other new counties.
Hoping that you will win out in
fine shape in your election on the 14th
of September and feeling that if you
do that those who are opposing the
creation of the new county will soon
be fully convinced of the wisdom you
have taken in the matter.
Yours truly,
adv John S. Taylor.

MENDENHALL is A SICK MAN
Timely Attack of Pneumonia May
Delay His Trial

Tampa, Sept. Ia special to the
Times from Clearwater says: j. J..
Mendenhall, in Jail here charged with
the murder of Mrs. c. w. Eliot and
Miss Susie Eliot of Tampa, is a very
sick man. So sick is Mendenhall that
it is possible his illness will cause a
postponement of the investigation of
his case by the grand jury which will
be convened next month by Circuit
Judge Robles.
Mendenhall is threatened with
pneumonia. His illness began with a
congestive chill several days ago. He
has had considerable fever, but that
has been subdued and today he is
somewhat improved. He has lost
about twenty pounds weight, and his
physicians, Drs. Bowen and Dicker-
son, say he is a very sick man.
In order that he might have better
ventilated quarters, Sheriff White
hurst has had the prisoner removed
to the second story of the Jail, where
he has been given a room by himself.
A guard is maintained day and night
Mendenhall's illness possibly had
it's origin with the electric fan which
he had installed in his cell some time
ago. The prison has been extremely
hot during the past ten days and the
current of air created by the fan in
the humid atmosphere caused him to
take cold, his physicians believe.

Russians However May Lose
the Port of Riga
FIGHTING STUBDORNLY AND WINNING REARGUARD ACTIONS
ON GALICIAN FRONT


London, Sept. 1.-Germany's plan
for driving three wedges into the
Russian defensive lines is being car
ried forward, but not with the same
speed as marked the sweep over
Poland. Riga is almost isolated and
unless Russia can soon throw heavy
forces against Gen. Won Hindenberg's
exposed flank, this fort must fall into
the hands of the invaders. Although
this attack seems to have been check
ed for the moment, the Russians have
been unable to develop a counter Of
fensive in that region, comparable
with their activities in East Galicia,
where on the river Stripa they have
inflicted serious losses on their op-
ponents.

LETTER FROM A PROMINENT
CITIZEN OF PINELLAS COUNTY

Largo, Fla, Aug. %, 1915.
Hon. j. S. Bitch, Montbrook, Fla.
Dear Mr.. Bitch: / desire to ac-
knowledge xreceipt of your letter, in
which you inquire as to conditions in
Pinellas county, especially in regard
to the effect upon same by the crea-
ton of the new county.
In reply | wish to say that I have
lived in this territory all of my life,
forty-four years, and was well ac-
quainted with conditions before the,
having represented Hillsboro county
twice in the legislature before the
division and was elected twice to rep
resent Pinellas county since the divi-
sion, and am now member of the
Board of County Commissioners, be-
ing chairman of the board.
Our division bill was passed to be
voted upon by three-fifths majority,
as | understood yours to be, and ours
was ratified by seventy-five per cent.
majority, and | am confidently of the
opinion that if the matter. should be
submitted back to the people on pro-
position to go back to the mother
county, that it would be defeated by
a majority of not less than ninety
five per cent, in fact | do not believe
there are ten tax payers in the coun-
ty, who would be willing, if it were
possible to do SO, to go back to Hills
boro. | have been informed that
there is some argument made in your
territory that there is great of dis
satisfaction in Pinellas county, and |
wish to very fatty deny that this is
true. As a matter of fact, our millage
has not been increased in Pinellas
county. In proof of this statement,
/ desire to call your attention to the
fact that the county millage in Hills
boro for 1914 was twenty-five as
against eighteen in Pinellas. | wish
to state IN this connection that the
valuation in this county has not been
increased, except in some cases where
property was not on the tax books at
all, or at very ridiculously low valu-
alton. There were several very large
properties in Pinellas which were dis
covered to have been entirely exempt
from taxation. One of the strongest
fighters we had against division in
this territory was one of the parties
whose property was not on the tax
books. | wish also to say at the pres
ent time the valuation in this county
is on a basis of fifteen to twenty per
cent of the actual valuation. | make
this statement advisedly, being a
member of the board of commissions
ers, and it thereby being my duty to
sit on the equalizing board. While
our total valuation has increased from
about $3,O00,0OO to $9,0O0,O0O, it is
almost entirely the result of develop
ment, which is a direct result of the
creation Of the new county.
/ might further call your atten-
ton to the public schools in this coun-

ANOTHER OIL COMPANY
COMING TO OCALA

District Superintendent H. o. Nc
Arthur of the A. c. l., was in the
city today, looking after affairs for
his road. He informed the Star that
the Texas Oil Co., big corporation,
and a rival of the Standard, is anxious
to establish depot in Ocala and will
do so if it can find suitable location.
This would be a very good thing for
this city and the Star hopes the
Texas company will find what it is
looking for. The matter will be de-
cided in a day or so.

BRYAN WOULD BE AN
HONORED GUEST IN BERLIN

Berlin, Sept. 1.-The imperial Ger
man government considers the sink
ing of the Arabic a closed incident,
according to the semi-official state
ments in the newspapers. The blame
is to be placed on the submarine COM
mander when he returns, if he ever
does. There is considerable bitterness
in military circles over the alleged
weakness of the German chancellor,
and a corresponding feeling against
the United States. The newspapers
promise that William Jennings Bryan
will be given cordial welcome if he
will visit Berlin.

over the remarkable feat. 1t is ac-
knowledged to be a wonderful act of

marine was compelled to traverse the

Washington, Sept. Count

Bernstein, the German ambassador, on

formed Secretary Lansing today that
Germany had accepted the principle
that passenger liners should be warn

Bernstein later will communicate the
information in writing.
Secretary Lansing said he would
Withhold all comment util a written
memorandum had been received.
The accepting of the principle that
passenger ships are not to be attack
ed without warning is considered by
this government as an acceptance of
the presidents last note on the Lusi-

Germany yields to the United States
demand in regard to safety of neu-
trails on the high seas.
