FORETELLS COLI WEATHER

Another harbinger of approaching
cold weather. as noted by many
BOubon county sportsmen, is the
fact that squirrels are laying up
their winter store of food. They
are not. according to our informant,
awaiting the ripening Of walnuts,
but are picking and hauling them
away. to be stored for winter use.
This is said 10 be very unusual.
One man told us the other day
that while walking along the banks
of Stoner Creek, he came upon a
bunch of squirrels engaged in TINS
work. He watched them for quite
3 while as they scrambled from tree
to tree. taking to their storage house
quantities oil walnuts and other
foodstuffs for the winter. The little
animals worked increasingly, In"
stinct warning them to prepare
ahead for the inevitable cold.

DAY OF hTONEMENT" JEWISH
HOLIDAY TOMORROW.

The Day IF Atonement or ''Yom
Kippur," tenth day of the month of
llshri, begins at sunset to-day, Tues
day, September 81, and ends at sun
set Wednesday, September %. The
thought underlying the day is ex-
pressed in the scriptural words: ION
this day, He will atone for you, to
purify you from all your SINS" 1t is
a day, therefore, of reconciliation OF
man with his fellow-man and with
God, and comes as a climax to the
holiday season which began Sunday,
Years Day and continued through
the ten days of penitence.
The Day of Atonement provides
all men with the possibility of re-
turning TO God and of finding recon
Citation with Him through prayer.
The day is the most solemn of all
days in the Jewish calendar. 1t Is
passed in fasting and prayer.
According to Jewish tradition ex-
pressed in an ancient law-book the
Day of Atonement, when spent in
praying and repenting, will bring
pardon for sins between man and
God, but the sins committed by man
against his fellow-man cannot Of
pardoned until he has appeased h1h
whom he has wronged. This idea
is based of the effort always MADE
before the Day of Atonement, tf
bring peace between friends who
have become estranged and are or
unfriendly terms with one another
In this way, the day will put tn
worshiper at peace not only with hl'
Maker, but also with his fellowman

NEW YORK. January "a (by the
