DAY OF ATONEMENT.
 WILL BE OBSERVED.
HoIiest Day In Jewish Calen- dar Will Be Observed
 Here Next Week

The Day of Atonement. or Tom Kippur In Hebrew, will occur this year on Wednesday, October 12, and will be celebrated at the local Jewish places of worship with appropriate exercises. It is observed with great solemnity and scrupulous care from sunset on Tuesday to sunset on We'd nesday evening by all Jewish people the world over. The celebration of I om Kippur is of great antiquity, and the occasion is regarded as the holiest day of the synagogal calen- dar. In the Bible, this holiday is .denominated tne Sabbath of Sab baths" On this day shall atone mert be made for you, to cleanse you; from all your sins shall ye be clean before the Lord" Leviticus 16;30.
 Ceremonial Observance
 The ceremonial observance of the Day of Atonement enjoins on the worshipper withdrawal from his work-a- day cares and occupations and devotion to meditation and prayer. that he may take account of himself. As result of his intro spection and q lf-examination, the honest individual will know and con fess his shotcomings, and seek for BlNeneSS and make amends by per- forming deeds of benevolence. of ser vice, and of good will towards his fellowmen. Abstention from food and drink is a traditional interpreta- ton of the Biblical injunction to af- flict the soul. which was of old commanded as essential in the ob- servance of Tom Kippur. It is meant as a discipline of self-control, the better to reconcile man to God Moral Lessons
 The moral lessons inculcated by the ritual of the Day of Atonement are impressive and invaluable. The truth is emphasized that men and women work under the limitations of their mortality. yet simultaneously are agents in the hahus of the Creator of the universe to fashion their ca feers according to His will and to bring to pass the establishment of an era of peace and good will among men. To impress upon each indi- vidual his responsibility in this en-, deavor Is one of the key-notes of the elaborate ritual service.
 One phase of the ritual is devoted to the remembrance of dear ones called to their eternal reward. The memorial service of the afternoon is concerned not merely with members of the local Jewish community who have passed away. but commemorates all those who have served well and increased the good of the world.
