JEWISH NATIONAL
 FUND FLOWER DAY Will Be Observed Saturday Evening and All Day On
 Sunday, June IA AN APPEAL IS ISSUED

.H
 "In All the Land of Your Posses sion Ye Shall Grant a Redemption for the Land" (chapter 25 Levitt cus).
 In hundreds of communities throughout the United States, Jew ish National Fund Flower Day. ded- icated to the presentation of the ideals of Zionism and to the strengthening of the fund whose purpose it is to redeem and reclaim the soil of the Jewish homeland, will be observed on Saturday eve ming and all day Sunday, June IA.
 Zionists should realize now that the Jewish national fund is the backbone of Jewish colonization in Palestine. It is one of the strongest and safest foundations of the Jew jsh national home. Zionists and Jews throughout the world have demonstrated their undfminishing belief in the purposes and ideals of the fund through a mounting scale of support extended even under the most difficult economic conditions.
 American Zionists, however. face a particular responsibility in con- nection with flower day this year. They have recently embarked upon a great undertaking, the Ussishkin land redemption land plan. which, when carried out, will shed glory on the name of America and the Jews of America through linking them indelibly with what will be known as the American tract in Palestine.
 This requires sum of not less than i've million dollars. To make up this total, larger contributions are called for on a five-year basis. It Is of paramount importance that parallel with this great and signifi- cant endeayor, which is being un- dertaken by the Keren Kayemeth league branches, there should be sustained and continuous effort on the part of the tried and devoted Jew ish national fund workers for maintaining and even bettering the record of receipts of previous flower day collections.
 During the past eighteen years. flower and Rag days have brought to the coffers of the Jewish national fund q sum greatly exceeding sl.- 900, ,000, collected In small coin con tributions. For on these days. the Jewry, no matter how poor or how much affected by the present hard times, can contribute something Tin . giving which does not hurt"
 VIII you turn away empty-hand- ed whom the volunteers approach you, with no thought or love for the land of your ancestors, or will you turn with c glad heart and full purse Co do your share for redeem. lng the soil Of Palestine and assur. ina . national home for your peo' pIe7

The Demonstrations of Value" this week-a few of which are shown in this advertisement, prove the ex- treme low levels of retail prices.
 Our policy has been to lower prices as fast as the manufacturers pass on to us their savings realized on the low costs of raw materials.
 In many cases these prices are below the present level of costs. They repre- sent our effort to prove con- vincingly the wisdom of buy ing at this level. An increase in buying stimulated by these low prices, will, we believe, hasten the return of prosper ity.
 Rowland Hughes al- ways endeavors to be first in presenting the lowest prices.

They found the church closed and
woke up the sacristan by loud knocks
at the door. The sacristan, seeing the
crowd. at that hour of the night, said
1t was no time to hold procession
and they had better go home and sleep.
With that he refused to let them enter
the church and closed his door. The
crowd became noisy and marched to the
parish house, where they woke up the
parish priest. But he also said 1t was
not a time to hold procession, and
he refused to let them have the image
CT the Redeemer.
The crowd thereupon forced the doors
of the church and with prayers took
the image from the altar and started
on the procession to the shrine, return
ing only toward morning. But for all
that no rain came and the news vender
was arrested by the police.
But few hours after he was put in
Jail the rain did come, and then the
peasant in great excitement. demanded
the news vendors release, which was

Savior closed his eyes as If in consent,
she said. and then told her that the
people must 60 in a procession OF pent-
