JEWS WILL CELEBRATE
FEAST OF CHANUKAH
Observance Will Begin Tomorrow
Evening and Will Last for
Eight Days.

The Feast of Dedication. known in
Hebrew as Chanukah. will be cele-
brated in Jewish circles beginning to-
morrow evening. This festival lasts
for eight days and is observed with
10y and gladness in the Jewish home.
The origin of .Chanukah is traced to
4 historical event of tremendous con-
sequence to the Jewish people. In the
year 16s 3. c. E.. the Syrian King An
tiochus ". or Epiphanes. had resolved
upon an imperialistic policy of unity
Ing all the provinces and peoples in
his domain. AS a preliminary meas
ure toward this consummation OF ms
ambition. an edict was promulgated
compelling all his subjects to adopt
q common religion. that of the Greeks.
This decree met with unexpected
opposition among his least powerful
subjects. the Jews. The polytneism of
the Greek religion. it's lax morality
and debasing influences incited the
Jews to rebellion. Under the leader
ship of the aged priest. Mattathias.
and after his death his son. Judas
Maocabeus. armed resistance was ar
rayed against the powerful armies
which Antiochus sent against the m
habitantS of Palestine. The Vaiof oi
this heroic band triumphed over tEe
mighty hosts of Syria. Tae tempe at
Jerusalem which had been deiied by
tdolatrous practices was rededicated
70 the worship cf the one God Ihe
yededication took place on the 10Th
day of kislev. according to the cal
endar of the synagogue. in the year 90
g. c. E. In commemoration OF the
victory. the Feast of Chanukah is
celebrated even unto this day.
Legends impressive of this triumph
and the festive character Of the cele-
bration- have been preserved. An old
legend recounts the miraculous pres
ervation of a single cruise of unde-
filed oil, found in the temple at the
time of the rededication. which burned
for eight days. The kindling OF lights
in the home and in the synagogue is
distinguishing feature of the festival.
The traditional practice is to light one
candle on the first night, two on the
second and so on until eight are kim
died on the last day of the feast.
The special prayers reciteG in the
synagogue in connection with Chanukah
stress the triumph of the spirit OF
God over the might and power OF
goddess man.
The festival is utilized by the mod
ern synagogue as an occasion for par
ticipation of the children of the reii-
Rious schools in plays or pageants
which express the glorious victory OF
the few and feeble over the mighty
hosts of oppression.

Under the terms of the measure all

cotics would be prohibited and all

be under the supervision of the pub
lie health service, which would de-
termine what amounts were neces-
sary for needs of the medical pro-
fession.
Dr. Wilbur r. Crafts of the Inter-
national Reform Bureau said the bill
was designed particularly to have
the public health service wise all mar
ootic imports and to stop exports.
principally from Philadelphia. and
New York to Japan. Dr- Crafts said
ffty tons of narcotics had been sold
in Japan by American and British ex-
porters during the last four years,
and that Japan was doing large
trade in selling narcotics, particu-
larly in China.
