ROSH HASHANAH
STARTS MONDAY
In Fact it Will Actually Begin
at Sunset Tomorrow
Evening.

On Monday, Sept. 13, tho festival OF
Rosh Hnshanah, or New Year. will be
observed by the members of the Jewish
faith throughout the world Like all the
other Jewish holy days, the festival COM
mences at sunset on the preceding day,
and lasts for two days. Special services
will be held in all synagogles. Elaborate
preparations have been made for the
services to be held at the Adas Kodesch
Synagogue, Sixth and French streets
Services will be held both morning and
evening.
Monday morning at 10 o'clock Rabbi
David b. Swiren will address the con-
gregation on Today" This discourse

new word to tell to his congregations. His
discourses are not only scholarly, but
up-to-date, most interesting and in
spring. The singing part of the services
will be conducted by the cantor, ID.
Plotkisa
This festival is the first of series of
holidays lasting nearly a month. IL is
also the beginning Of the year in the
Jewish calendar. Its principal feature is
the blowing of the Shophar, or rams horn.
The blowing of the Shophar plays the
most important part in the service of the
day. IL is to remind us of our sins. lt is
to be the speaking conscience. condemning
our transgressions. After the services IL
is customary to congratulate each other
by saying MAY you be inscribed for a
good year" Thus the New Years Day
speaks of human destiny, human hope,
and has nothing narrow about il. Its
traditions and customs are sublime.

tee and Mrs. George Horace Lorimer, vice
chairman.
Ii was an executive session, but copies
of Mr.. Hays remarks were gwen to the
newspaper correspondents after the
luncheon.
'It is only by a great many personal
workers interesting themselves IN the
solicitation that small amounts can
be successfully secured, and hundreds
of the finest men and women in the
nation are engaged in this part of our
party work, as in the other divisions,
said Mr., Hays.
at is an innovation of merit recog-
nized by all Because it is the first effort
it may not succeed However, we have
been several months in q campaign of
publicity and organization to develop
the idea. and we have every reason to
believe that it viii succeed. If 1T fails to
produce the requisite sum, we shall state
so publicly, increase the maximum and
seek additional contributions.
Mr.. Hays declared Democratic VIC
tory and "a resultant entry of America
into the League of Nations would be a

patriotism continues to animate the

MILL WORKERS ACCEPT CUT.
zoo at Conshohockcn Keep Hosiery
Factory From Closing.

Philadelphia. Sept. 1.-Two hundred
employees. of the Herbert Hosiery mill,
Conshohocken, have agreed to. take 10
per cent reduction in wages so that the
mill need not close. The unusual arrange
ment was confirmed yesterday by Leon $.
Herbert, head of the concern.
The scheme already has been put into
effect, and is proving the means Of main
tanning the mills production, despite
business uncertainties. Most Of the hos
iery mills in the Conshohocken region
have closed, throwing hundreds of en-
ployes out of work indefinitely. The re-
duction in wages virtually eliminates
bonuses which workers received in war
times.
"All our employees are girls, some of
whom received AZ much as S52 a week, /"
said Mr.. Herbert yesterday. I'VE have
in all about 300 employees, 100 of whom, be-
cause of the special nature of the work
they are doing, will continue with no
change in wage scale. II the workers had
not agreed to accept the reduced pay we
would have been compelled to stop work
entirely. As it is, we are turning out goods
now for stock"
