A strong argument all this is, from
the religious point of view, in favor
Of Zionism. In land of their own,
and in communities of their own,
Jews could observe their festivals
with all the appropriate emblems
and appurtenances without let or

thing to do. 1t would be a part of
their own life and culture Ethical
monotheism can be cultivated by
Jews anywhere. But Jewish life and

SUCCOTH.

Regarding the celebration of Sue
Goth, the Mosaic code en- joins: "And
thou shalt only rejoice" This law
was obeyed by our fathers in the
spirit and the letter. There was not
a more joyful festival in the Jewish
calendar.
1t was quite natural that it should
be so. Not only were our ancestors
most scrupulous in following the or
dinance, because to them it was di-
vine, but their jubilation was also
reaction from the austerities and
sombreness of the preceding holy
days. Yom kippur had brought

HOW TO LIVE LONG.

Mans solicitude has always been
how to live long, how to reach the
farthest limit of life's journey. We
may consider it foolish anxiety,
an unnecessary solicitude. Not that
a long life is not a great blessing
from God reaching ripe old age,
hale and hearty, and in full posses
sion of ones faculties. But it is a
matter altogether beyond our con-
troll. There was Prof Metchnikoff,
the great Psychologist, who made
the discovery that by the generous
use of buttermilk one could prolong
his life to the age of one hundred
and fifty years. He himself died re-
Gently at the age of seventy. Some
people live longer than that without
the use of buttermilk
Our solicitude should not be con-
corning the length of life, but rather
concerning it's breadth, quality, vari-
ETY. and color, all of which makes the
fullness and richness of life If we
but make our life broad and rich
enough, it's length does not matter.
And in the making of the breadth
and fullness of life, the mind plays
the all-important part. When the
mind of man is properly nurtured
and cultivated, whether the years
allotted to us be many or not, life
may be infinitely extended The
only long life that is worth while is
the life made abundant and rich by
the mind. The shortest-lived man is
he whose mind remains poor,
shrunken, circumscribed within mar
row limits.
The mind alone extends and en-
riches life. Our minds may become
the true mirrors of the cosmos, the
reflections of eternity. We can
identify ourselves with all who lived
in the past, with all who live in the
present, and if endowed with suffi-
cient imagination, with those who
will live in the future. We can COM
mune with the greatest minds of the
past, we can think. their thoughts,

RECOMMENDATION with GOd, ana they
were now happy in that assurance.
Feasting was the natural rebound
from fasting, although, to their cred
it be it said, they feasted in modera-
ton.
In still remoter times in Palestine,
their JOY and rejoicing had their
natural spring in the abundant re-
suits of the fruit harvest, for Succoth
was primarily harvest thanksgiv-
ing festival All the symbols used
in the celebration, the booth, and the
four specimens of vegetation, are
reminiscent of it. In the days of the
Temple of Jerusalem there was great
jollihcation in the evening of the
first day of Succoth. 1t was known
as "Simhath beth hashoavah," i. e.,
the bonfire and torchlight celebra-
ton. 1t was in connection with the
water offering poured upon the altar
every morning of the Succoth fes-
tival, in gratitude for the abundant
rain upon which the fertility of the
soil of Palestine depends. The bon
fire in the Temple Court that eve
ming illuminated the whole city Of
Jerusalem. The merrymaking on
that occasion was such that it was
said "He who has not seen the
bonfire jollifcation has never seen
real rejoicing in his life
Such was the original character of
festival that has now been reduced
to mere memory, mere shadow of
it's former self Who celebrates
Succoth nowadays as our fathers
did? Who has taste Of the pleas
ure and fun we formerly enjoyed
in connection with the construction
and decoration of the Succah:
Of all festivals, Succoth' is, in
modern .Jewry, the most neglected.
And there are natural reasons for it.
In the first place, Rosh Hashonoh
and Yom kippur, that are still OBJ
served by all, draw heavily upon our
slender religious resources. To OBJ
serve two religious days in such rap
id succession is all that modern peo-
pie can stand. After Yom Kippur,
the religious enthusiasm is almost
exhausted. People think they have
done their duty and are entitled to
rest. There are altogether too
many holidays in one month, they
say. Then, the construction of a
Succah, the characteristic feature of
the holiday, is out of the question.
Who cares nowadays to parade his
religious rites and observances in the
open? We cannot plead incon-
venience or hardship, for most fam
