JEWISH FEAST
Local Hebrews Observing the Spar ing of the Ancicnts in Egypt When the Unbclicvcrs Were Punished.

Today is the first day of the Jew ish feast of Passover. Services were held in the synagogue and homes last evening to observed the coming of the great feast which will last for sev- on days, ending April 20.
 The feast of the Passover as tra- dition says, is to commemorate the time that the Jews were spared from the hand of the Lord at a time when he was smiting the first born of the Egyptians. The Hebrews in Egypt were as the story goes, the chosen of the Lord, and some of their high priests having been warned that the Lord was going to wipe out the first born of the Egyptians, marked their doors with the blood of q lamb which had been offered in sacrifice and in that way they were spared from the scourge which descended on the un- believing Egyptians. The feast is called Passover because it commem- orates the passing over of the Jewish houses in Egypt

much good at making a fire. Instead,
he seemed to admire himself and his

pot had been forgotten.
There was the girl who was obvious

There was the girl who kept asking
what she could do to help, who would

The wise hostess wishes to prevent
her young guests from pairing of and
remaining with their escorts the entire
evening. To change partners In a
novel and entertaining way in the
course Of the evening, have ready a
circle Of green cardboard divided into
as many sections as there are girls
present. Write a girls name in each
division. Now cut out a large red
pasteboard star, with a white arrow
painted on one Of the points, and
fasten this star to the center Of the
cardboard circle by means Of a large
pin Each boy in turn comes up and
spins the star, and the maiden whose
name Is indicated when the white ar
row comes to rest is accorded him as
partner. OF course, If a girls name
has already been chosen the boy must
spin again. This spinning star will
result in much mirth for the young
people. s,y
