SHIP IN FLAMES: 80 PASSENGERS
AND CREW SAVED

Old Point Comfort, Va, October s.
Radio messages received here tonight
from the coast guard cutter Onondags
said two tugs are towing the burning
Ward Line steamer Antilla to Hamp-
ton Roads and that the eighty pas
sengers and crew, which took to the
small boats 100 miles off Cape Henry
last night. are aboard the cutter
which is conveying the tow.
The message also asked that another
tug be sent out to assist in fighting the
FIRE in the Antilla's cargo of lumber
and sugar. The cutters Captain re.
ported that he thought the flames
could be brought under control IL help
were sent.
The Onondaga reported the Antill?

out by the liner early last night The
passengers and crew in small boats

THE FEAST OF TABERNACLES

The Jewish feast of Tabernacles or
Succoth will commence on Wednesday
evening, October IL. and will last for
nine days. According to the Bible
the feast lasted only seven days. In
the course of time, however, the feast
was heightened to nine days. the last
two being The English day of Solemn
Assembly or the Feast of Conclusion,
and the Day of the Rejoicing for the
Law.
Succoth, means booths, and the
name owes its origin TO the fact that
on this feast many families build fes-
tive booths in which the holiday meals
are served. In some cases pious peo-
pie will spend all the days of the
feast living in the booth in order 10
give literal fulfllment to the injunc-
ton; ain booths shall we dwell seven
days"
The frail booth built as a temporary
dwelling, an imperfect shelter from the
elements, is to remind man that he Is
constantly under the protection of the
Almighty, just as the fathers of Israel
were under His protection in the wild
erness. "In order that your genera
tons may know that | made the chill
dren of Israel dwell in booths, when
brought them up from the land of
Egypt"
The sentiment of the feast is rooted
deep in the ancient agricultural life of
Israel Succoth was one of the great
pilgrimage festivals. The other two
were Passover and the Feast of Weeks.
East of these was at the harvest TIM
Of some particular crop. On these
three occasions the people from al
ever the land of Canaan would journey
to the Holy City and spend the festiva!
there. This feast, Succoth, known also
as the Feast of Ingathering was at the
time of the gathering in of fruits. The
booths therefore may be reminiscent
of the booths erected by the busy har-
vesters as temporary dwellings in the
field. The palm branches and the will
lows, the myrtle and citron still borne
in procession around the synagog or
this feast also suggest this ancient
harvest setting.
Succoth was the last of the three
harvest festivals; and as it ushered IL
the winter season when rain was need
ed for next years crop, a water serv-
ice was held in the Temple; and tC
this day the prayers for the last day of
Succoth include special prayers for
rain, which are continued in the serv-
ices until the time when the spring
harvest comes again with the feast OF
Passover.

War Department to obtain the 100000
regular army recruits it will be neces-
sary to enlist annually hereafter in
order to keep the army up to the

The new plan contemplates estab-
fishing such agencies in every county

parties will be sent TO comb the rural
districts. Tables have been prepared
TO show recruiting who should be OBJ
tanned in each county and the number
OF men of the recruiting service TO ne
sent to each county will be determined
by the population. Under the present
strength OF the recruiting service each
member OF that service must procure
the enlistment OF 100 men a year In
order to make up the desired total.
The order says the number OF men
who enlist in the cavalry is greater
proportlonately than for other arms OF
the service. ofIlcers are instructed to

CHILDREN'S KIDNEYS
No Maysville Mother Should Neglect
the Little Ones Health.

Oftentimes weak kidneys cause
great annoyance and embarrassment
to children. Inability to control the
kidney secretions, at night or while
at play, is attributed to carelssness
and too frequently the child is punish
ed. Parents having children troubled
with kidney weakness would do well
to treat the kidneys with a tested and
proven kidney remedy. If there is
pain in the back, discolored urine, ir-
regular urination, headaches, dizzy
spells or a tired, WORKOUT feeling, try
Doan's Kidney Pills at once. This
remedy has been used in kidney trou-
bles for over so years and has been
recommended by thousands. Convinc-
ing proof of merit in the following
statement It's from a resident of
this locality.
Mrs. b. M. French, E. Second St,
Augusta, KY, says: Measles left my
children with weak kidneys. The kid
ney secretions were too frequent In
passage and couldn't be controlled at
night. Most everything was tried, but
without benefit. Doan's Kidney Pills,
however, gave the children quick re-
