HEBREWS WILL KEEP FESTIVAL
 FOR 8 DAYS
Chanuka, the Hebrew festival of

Chanuka, the Hebrew festival of light, which commences Thursday night, will be celebrated for eight days by Jewish soldiers and sailors overseas, at cantonments, naval bases, on shipboard and in Jewish com munity centers throughout the coun- try, as a celebration not only for the victory of the Maccabeans 2,000 years ago, but as a thanksgiving for the triumph of America and her Allies. Under the auspices of the Jewish Welfare Board, it was announced to- day, unique celebrations will be held wherever groups of Jewish soldiers and sailors congregate. Religious services including the lighting oi Chanuka, candles, song festivals, hol1- day feasts, entertainments and dances are among the features that will be carried out. Slides and motion pie lures, telling the story of Chanuka will be shown at various cantonments At Camp Mills, Camp Bowie, Camp Logan, Camp Merritt and Pelham Bay Naval Training Station, and other cantonments, Jewish Welfare Board huts will be dedicated on this date with 0 joint Chanuka and Thanksgiv- ing celebration.
 The festival of Chanuka commem- orates the victory of the MaccabeanE over King Antiochus. the oppressol of the Jews and the protagonist 0! i Syrian Kultur 210O years ago. Cha
 nuka this year assumes a peculia' | significance. Beginning on Thanks 1 giving eve, it falls at a time when the
 world is rejoicing in the coming O 1 peace, and America in the victory o 1 the Allies. It also marks the frs 1 anniversary of the recapture of Jeru 1 salem by General AlIenby at the heat 1 of the British armies. Consequently l this year it is an occasion for grea rejoicing among the Jews in ever 1 country who have been ardent sup 1 porters of the Allied cause.
 The Chanuka candles, which will b
 lighted in Jewish Welfare Board hut | and community centers, trace thei
 origin to a flask of sacred oil tha
 burned for eight days, which the vic torious Maccabeans found when the
 re-entered the temple in Jerusa1en
 after driving out the Syrians,

HEALTH TALK SPANISH INFLUENZA OR
 GRIP.
BY DIR. LEE H. SMITH.

An old enemy is with us again, and whether we fight a German or a germ, We must put up a good fight and not be afraid. The influenza ruus very brief course when the patient is care full and if we keep the system in good condition and throw off the poisons which tend to accumulate within our bodies, we can escape the disease. Remember these three C's- clean mouth, clean skin. and clean bowels To carry off poisons from the system and keep the bowels loose daily doses of a pleasant laxative should be taken. Such a one is made of May-apple, leaves of aloe, root of jalap and called pr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. Hot lemonade should be used Neely if attacked by a cold, and the SAtient should be put to bed after a hot mustard foot bath.
 To prevent the attack of bronchitis or pneumonia and to control the pain, Anuric tablets should be obtained at the drug store, and one given every two hours, with lemonade. The Anuric tablets were first discovered by Dr. Pierce, and, as they flush the bladder and cleanse the kidneys, they carry away much of the poisons and the uric acid.
 It is important that broths, milk buttermilk, ice cream and simple die be given regularly to strengthen the system and increase the vital resist ance, The fever is diminished by tht use of the Anuric tablets, but in addi ton, the forehead, arms and hand may be bathed with water (tepid) il which a tablespoonful of salaratu has been dissolved in a quart. Afte an attack of grip or pneumonia l. build up and strengthen the system obtain at the drug store a good irol tonic, called ''Irontic" Tablets. or tha well known herbal tonic, Dr. Pierce Golden Medical Discovery.-Adv.

ALL=RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT

speak highly of Admiral Alexander
Kolchak, who, through a coup on the
part of the Council of Ministers of
the new All-Russian government at
Omsk, has become virtual dictator
and commanders of the All-Russian ar
my and navy. AS commander Of the
Russian navy he blocked the German

oSTRIcHEs ON n EMU.

The food administration in Ari-
zona has permitted j. Z. Cogdell,
manager Of one of the largest ostrich
farms in America, situated near
Phoenix, Ariz., to slaughter 500
birds that are in excellent condition
for eating. They will be dressed and
placed on the market at Is cents a
pound. These 800 ostriches repre-
sent $4,000 pounds of dressed meat.
The war is responsible in two
ways for this action. In the first
place Mr.. Cogdell would never
think of slaughtering his beautiful
birds, the progeny of those imported
several years ago from Africa, but
for the fact that the war has put
the festive ostrich plume more or less
out of business. In the second place
the war shortage of meat is RESPONSE
bic for the issuance of the order per-
mitting the slaughter and sale. And
then it comes to pass that Arizona,
or part Of her populace at least, is
:.,,--ccccering to celebrate "0strich day."

WHEY DIDN'T GET MESSAGE
Careless User of Automatic Telephone
Will Likely Have to Do Some
Explaining.

Miss Alma Sickler, 22O East Elev-
enth street, has been specializing for
several days on the grim possibilities
which might result from an expert
ence which she had.
Miss Sickler has the automatic
telephone. The only disadvantage
so far discovered in the automatic
telephone is that the fellow who calls
is not certain he is getting the cor
rect number. He does not reason that,
even though he calls his own num-
Der all human beings are fallible.
His finger might slip; he might,
with weighty matters in his subcon-
scious mind, absently dial the wrong
number-or forget one Of the figures
or leave out one-alas; it has hap
pened.
The insistently recurring, sharp
ring of the automatic summoned
Miss Sickler. A masculine voice, a
strange voice, spoke hurriedly over
the wire, almost before she could
say, 'hello." The voice, for to Miss
Sickler it was only a koice, said:
