Jewish Day Of Atonement viii Start
at Sunset

Jewish Day Of Atonement viii Start
at Sunset
The Day. of Atonement, the most
solemnly observed of all the holy days
in the Jewish calendar, begins at sun
set tonight and will last until sunset
tomorrow. The day will be observed
by services in synagogues throughout
the city, lasting all day.
The Day Of Atonement is one of the
most picturesque holidays observed in
any religious calendar. 1t is known
to the Hebrews as Yom Kippur, and
all orthodox and reformed Jews OBJ
serve the day by rigid fasting They
are not allowed to partake of either
food or drink from sunset tonight until
sunset tomorrow night. In the syna
gogues the worship lasts throughout
the day. 1t is marked by special
prayers in which all the sins are named
in order, and forgiveness is asked. As
each sin is named the penitent strikes
himself over the heart with clenched
fist.
Another unique feature of the OBJ
servance Of Yom Kippur is the sound
ing of the shofar, or rams horn, which
is blown only on the most important
holidays. Special prayers are recited
in memory of the dead.

FLU" EPIDEMIC FEAR
FAST WAVES IN CITY
Absence of Grip Cases Causes
Doctors to Doubt Out
break This Year

Mothers who have worries over the
possibility of new epidemic of in6u
enza this fall and winter, and others
who have felt the same uneasiness, were
relieved today when it was reported that
physicians here are generally disposed to
think that there is no serious danger.
=, Just year ago Philadelphia was in
the grip of an epidemic, but at present
It is almost free from anything resem
bling influenza.
During September alone last year
1000 cases were reported, and there
were probably as many more which
never were recorded.
= Last month seventeen cases dag
nosed as influenza were reported at
the office Of DIR. A. A. Cairns, chief
medical inspector of the bureau. I'm
mediate investigation by medical in
spectors usually found the patient had
recovered in two or three days and was
back at work.
Doctor Cairns said there was nothing
to designate the cases as the epidemic
form of influenza. He doubts if there
is any epidemic influenza in the city at
this time, and believes most of the
cases thought to have been the genuine
influenza have been merely severe colds.
Precautions should be taken during
wet weather, such as was experienced
this week, that the feet and clothing
be kept dry.
The 1918 epidemis began In August
aud reached its height before October,
and physicians who have studied the
disease say that an epidemic, if there
was to be one, would have shown it
self before this time.

ROUSES COMMENT
Former Assistant U. S. Attorney
Generals Attack on Unions
Attitude Discussed
F0UN6RYMEN HEAR TALK

Warnings voiced by James vi. Beck,
former assistant United States attorney
general, at the annual banquet of the
American Foundrymen's Association,
were widely discussed today. Points
In Mr.. Beck's address last night at the
Bellevue -Stratford which stirred com
ment we're:
The constitution Is threatened N by
anarchy stalking in the guise Of labor
unions.
The restoration of law and order is
the greatest task now confronting
America and its Allies.
The refusal to operate railroads and
mines should be legally made sedition
and punishable as such.
The residents of the United States
are far too tolerant of violation of the
law.
Former Speech Recalled
1t was recalled today that Mr.. Beck
in his constitution day speech here In
Independence Hall, attacked those who
undertake to centralize power at Wash
ington and change the system Of gov
ernment, saying that there was menace
to the republic in such efforts.
Mr.. Beck's subject last night was
"The Crisis"
He pointed out that the country is
now going through the same unsettled
conditions experienced for several years
following the Revolutionary War. He
asserted that free institutions in this
country and England are in greater
peril now than ever.
sHeN Stated that in the steel strike
| ''outside pressure" is being exerted to
Choke America into submission. ="
Quoting from the book of Foster, leader
Of the strike, Beck said that Foster
advocated destruction of the government
and of all private property.
Must Crush Specter
"It is time for all people to crush
this rising specter Of lawlessness," he
said. ''It is time that we forgot our
troubles in other parts Of the world,
and devote ourselves to the immedi
ate task of restoring reign Of law.

on the statute books preventing re-
straint of trade, another law, and that
is, if any combination of men endeavors
to dictate to the American people or
the government their demands and say,
You will obey us or starve,' then that
offense should be equivalent to sedition
and punished accordingly"

this morning.

The rushing" season for the law
clubs has begun in the hope that many

tirely depleted the membership of the

in refilling the membership rolls.
The clubs Of the law school are the
Sharswood, Hare, Miller, Mexican and

both suffered severely and had to dis
continue operating during the war. The
same was true of several of the clubs,
while others had but two or three mem
bers at the opening of school this year.
