are working to that end. As for them
nothing need be said. They are past

HAND BALL PLAYERS
TO FINANCE COURTS
NEAR Y. M. BUILDING

Hand ball players met yesterday
afternoon at the Y NJ. C. A. and,
after approving the plans drawn
for the proposed hand ball courts
to taxa the place of the tennis
courts back of the "Y" building,
decided to start financing the
scheme at once. A considerable
amount of money was subscribed
toward the construction work af-
ter the meeting yesterday. AS the
business men of the city are show
ing great interest in the game, en-
thusiasts who attended the meeting
yesterday expressed their belief
that there would be no trouble in
raising the necessary money for
the three proposed courts.
Hand ball has become popular
among business and professional
men in Albuquerque, in spite of the
fact that they have been playing
on the gymnasium floor, which is
not the proper shape, and the fact
that their sport is hampered on
account of the great demand for
the gymnasium floor on after
moons. The present proposed plan
is to build three proper sized out
door courts which could be used
the year round and which would
accommodate the players. The
courts win be constructed of con-
crete and will last for years. At
ter the initial construction cost is
met, the game will not prove an
expensive one.

HUMANE SUNDAY
To Be OBSERVED.
IN j. s. TO-DAY
CIergymen viii Preach on
Kindness to Animals; Idea
Originated in England;
Has Spread Rapidly.
az The AssocIated press.l }

Pittsburgh, Pa. April Ito
morrow marks the sixth year that
Humane Sunday has been set for
observance in the United States,
according to Moral Welfare" pub
lished here by the board of tenn
perance and moral welfare of the
Presbyterian church.
General secretary of this board
and editor of it's periodical is
DR. Charles Scanlon of this city,
who last May succeeded in having
the Presbyterian Church of the
United States adopt humane edu-
cation as part of its program.
This is the first time in history
that any large religious denomina-
ton has taken such action, says
DR.. w. o. Stillman, president of
the American Humane association,
Move Started in England.
Like the Society for the Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Animals itself
and the Band of Mercy, the HUI
name Sunday idea first started in
England" the review reports.
"In 1864. two years before the
first Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals was organized
in America, the Royal Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Ami
mails began sending out appeals to
Clergymen to observe a Mercy
Sunday by preaching on kindness
to animals on the fourth Sunday
after Trinity.
Dean Stanley. in that year,
preached on this subject in West
minister Abbey. He struck direct
" at the heart of the whole busi-
! ness when, at the close of an elo-
quent sermon, he said; BE ye mer-
ciful to dumb animals, for We have
q common nature with them. he
We merciful, for We are raised Tar
above them to be their appointed
guardians. Be We merciful. for you
are made in the image of Him who
is all-merciful and all-compas-
sionate.' From that year the num-
Der of sermons preached in Great
Britain in behalf Of Gods lesser
creatures has gradually increased,
with each successive Mercy Sun
day. until now thousands Of them
are given on this day In the pulpits
of England.
First Observance In 1910.
"Only occasional and spasmodic
efforts for the observance OF a
Humane Sunday had been made In
the United States previous to 1914,
when, at the convention of the
American Humane association, a
j resolution in favor of an annual
Humane Sunday was presented
by Mrs. Mary F. Lowell. superln-
tendent of the department of mercy
of the Worlds w. c. T. u. At the
same time resolution embodying
the idea of a national be kind to
animals week was offered, and the
two suggestions were combined into
an annual be kind to animals week
and humane Sunday the week
referring more particularly to the
secular days.
"The first official observance
was announced to take place in
1915.
1.-THE first date set was in May
but this was changed later to
about the third Sunday in April,
chosen chiefly because that time
seems the best adapted to the be
kind to animals week program in
the public schools, and on the
whole, as satisfactory date as any
other, for Humane Sunday"

PASSOVER OPENS
ON FRIDAY AND
ENDS APRIL 90
Jewish Festival of Liberty Is
Associated With Exodus
of Children of Israel From
Egypt. ., #A

Passover, the Jewish festival of
liberty, known in Hebrew as pc
sach," begins this year on Friday
evening, April %. The concluding
day of the celebration will be held
on Saturday, April 80, among fam
lilies adhering stricts to traditional
regulations, while more liberal
Jews conclude the Passover week
on Friday, April 20. The local OBJ
servance of the week will not in
Ivolve unusual features.
Passover in the light of its ORR
gin was an agricultural feast, but
at later period became disassoci-
ated in part from its primitive ma
ture-worship ceremonialism and
was identified with an epOchal his
torical circumstance, which in
vested the festival with a new and
higly significant spiritual mes
sage.
Associated as the Passover is,
with the exodus of the Children of
Israel from Egypt, it recalls many
miracles which were wrought in
their behalf by the never-slumber-
ing Guardian and Keeper of Israel.
The delivery of the Hebrews from
Egypt's yoke of slavery released
them from bondage and darkness
and gave them instead freedom
and light. The memory of the en-
slayement of Israel is revived and
the scenes reviewed where the kim
dred of Joseph were degraded to
slave labor in the very country
upon which their illustrious an
cestor had showered rich blessings.
Their enslavement of body afflict-
ed likewise their souls They sank
into the grievous thraldom of des-
pair.
The deliverance of the Children
of Egypt was an assurance that
their supplications had been heard
on High and their chains of bond
age broken by the God Of their
fathers.
The memory of this redemption
is revived in the Passover festival
where it is utilized as a symbol of
a freedom more embracing than
the escape of the Children of Is
Irael from tyranny and oppression.
1t becomes at the same time a
token of humanity's final triumph
over all oppressors, tyrants and
bigots.
During the Passover week Jew
ish families eat MatZoth, unleav-
ened bread. which is one Of the
several symbols used in the OBJ
servance of the festival to bring
home the recollection of oppres-
sion and the eventual triumph of
humanity from the tyranny of in
justice and iniquity.
The festival beginning on the
evening of the day previous to the
holiday, is known as the Seder and
inaugurates the Passover celebra-
ton. This service is beautiful
home ceremony in which all mem
bers of the family participate.
The special ritual used for this
Seder service is called the "Haga-
dab" and recites the events of the
exodus by means of quaint songs
and stories that awaken within
the soul of old and young, a love
of liberty and strengthens the faith
of the present generation in the
priestly mission of Israel in the
world.
Observed in spirit of gladness,
this spring festival of liberty has
inspired the Jew to trust in the
eventual reign of righteousness.
For this reign OF righteousness the
Jew believes himself to have been
to prepare, as the final
goal of all mankind.
