JEWS TO COMPARE
CHANUKAH TO HUN
Festival Commem-
Grating Historic Incidents
Begins November %

The festival OF Chanukah, COM
memorating the historic incidents
related in the a~pocryphal Books of
the Maccabees, will be celebrated in
all Jewish homes for eight days, be-
genning November %.
The festival embodies the elements
Of the present world struggle, as the
heroic suffering Of the Jews of that
day finds q modern parallel in the
plight of the Belgian people. In
many a Jewish household the in
famous Antiochus Epiphanes of the
story will be compared to his sue
cessor in spirit, the inhuman, and
now no less infamous Emperor of
Germany, Wilhelm II.
Like his modern embodiment. the
ancient tyrant Of Syria found the
land of Israel a stumbling block in
the pathway of his ambition for ter
ritorial expansion. In order TO de-
stroy all vestiges of independence in
Judea, this tyrant sought to crush
the Jewish religion and to set up his
pagan cult in its place. Then Judah
the Lion arose and with Gods help
smote the hosts of the Syrian and
rolled back the armies of oppression.
The anniversary is therefore
known as the Festival of Rededica-
ton (Chanukah). 1t is q home fes-
tival and is signalized by lighting
candles on each of the eight even
ings In these troubled days the heart
of every Jew will go forth to the Bel
gian sufferers and will find encour-
agement in the message of the festi-
val, which is addressed to Belgium
as well as to Israel and to all hui
mainly.

Soldier Votes in
Some Confusion

Confused returns are being
brought to the State Capitol by some
of the commissioners appointed to
take the votes of soldiers and sailors
and 1t will take days to unravel some
of the statements made in the books.
Several books filed yesterday and to-
day fail to give the nanse of the
camp where the votes were taken
and the figures are jumbled, making
endless possibilities where close con-
tests may be involved. Less than half
of the commissioners have brought
in their returns.
When II. l.. Reinhold, of Ard
more, who took the votes of the SOL
diers at League Island Navy Yard,
arrived. he presented just n book
and reported the ballots had been
burned. His reason for this curse
was that they used to do that way
fifty-six years ago" when he was ac-
tive in election work. Deputy Sec
rotary of the Commonwealth George
d. Thorn, promptly rose to the oc-
casion and finding out what had
been done got a statement and will
certify the figures on the book filed
here to the interested counties. Mr..
Reinhold is advanced in years.
1t transpired to-day that when
William Nj. largest. Deputy Attor-
ney General, who was a commission
er to Fort Ogelthorpe, found that no
one had been sent to Camp Forrest
where there were many men, he or
ganized a board there, too, and held
election.

Fifth Avenue to Be Paved
With Silver When Actors
Work For United Drive

New York. Nov. S.-Fifth avenue
will be paved with silver. and, if the
silver runs out, with gold. Wheel
barrows will be used when it comes
time to lift the pavement and take
1t away.
Two great big banks are saving
up the dollars and hope to have
enough. Although coppers don't
count, the police will watch to see
that nobody steals anything. which
nobody will try to do. "Deteckatuffs"
will mingle freely with the crowds.
Glorious damosels, released from
their golden bars, will incite the
multitude.
All this because George NJ. Cohan
offhandedly remarked yesterday
morning hat the Friars Club, whose
abbot he is, would raise more money
than would the Lambs, for the Unit
ed War Work Fund Campaign. Some
tattle-tale carried this observation to
William Collier, who is nothing If
he isn't a Lamb, and instantly Will
liam called up George.

say -?"
"Sure I said it. Willie" said George.
Challen c Is Accepted
Even by inference it must not be
suggested that Messrs. Collier and
Cohan, both family men, ever gam
bic. But five minutes after they
stopped telephoning they met in the
presence of a third person, who
couldn't possibly have been a stake
holder, and in some unidentified way
the Lambs and the Friars were
pledged TO go out into Fifth ave-

All right, your low gang can

r. H. Burnside, shepherd of the
Lambs, summoned every well known
actor and actress in New York to
assist the club. Through Fred Bloch
Mr.. Conan signaled every Friar to
report at once. Mr.. Bloch personal

After the Grippe

To regain your health and strength
AGAIN you must take a tonic, and for
this purpose the Medical Profession
is prescribing Iron, Nux Vomica,
Gentian, Capsicum and Zinc Phos-
phide in some form. Many prepa-
rations containing Iron are very
constipating, but this is overcome by
the addition of Aloin in Chase's
Blood and Nerve Tablets. which con-
tain all of the above tonic remedies.
In these Tablets you have all that
is good in tonic medicines without
any harmful effects. They are safe
and sure health builders and at this
particular time it would be hard to
overestimate their value.
Weigh yourself before taking them
and see what you gain in weight and
strength.
Nearly all druggists sell Chase's
Blood and Nerve Tablets at sixty
cents a box. Special ninety cents.
