A RABBITS PRAYER

From time immemorial Jews living
in certain European countries, nota-
bly, Germany and Austria, were not
tolerated ut court. Indeed few years
ago their testimony was not taken
in courts. ard il has not been so long
ago when ghettoes were the abodcs
of members Of the Israelitiish race.
who resided in certain cities on the
European continent.
During the days Of the b:ilding of
the tower of Babel people, we are
told, travelled from the east to the
west, ard thousands of the descend
ants of Abraham have during the
past century and half turned their
faces towards America, where peonle
can worship the Greater under their
own vines aid fig trees and where
cv"ry nan can pay homage accord
ing to his own particular prediction.
Occasionally, at very long periods,
Jewish rabbis have offered prayer at
the opening of the United States.
Rev. Dr.. Gustav n. Hausmann, of
New York city. opened the session
Thursday with thanksgiving pray
er of peace, and plea that American
people comport themselves modestly

sive speed is the charge preferred.
South Alfred street is the scene of
speeding, this being the street used

Camp Humphreys. 1t is no uncom-
mon occurrence to see automobiles
running twenty-five or thirty miles
an hour on this thoroughfare. Not
