C. J. Moody then presented an
analysis of the water situation of
the Gila Watershed over a period
of years. This analysis showed
that the Dam would have been fill
ed during the following years:
1905, 1861. The peak of 440, 900
acre feet has been reached since
the dam was completed in 1892
and 1888 and two lower peaks of
approximately 100000 acre feet has
been reached in 1885 and 1897. Mr..
Moody estimated that at the rate
silt was now filling the dam it
would take about 200 years to com
pletely fill the dam with silt.
1t was reported that A. l.. NOVEL;
was quite seriously i'll and had been
taken to a hospital for treatment.

by an analysis of how c. j. Moody,
Director of u. 9. Indian Service,
spends his time during the year.
This analysis was made by Art

that Mr.. Moody spends one day
per year pitching horse shoes.

took meals. The menu consisted of
a fried chicken dinner with ice
cream. They spent the day boat
inc and swimming. Five cars took
the class to the dam. They were
chaperoned by Mr. and Mrs. H.

ROSH HASHONO
 FEAST NEARING
Jewish New Year Begins On Eve of Wednesday,
 September l3

Celebration of Rosh Hashono, the Jewish New Year, will begin on the eve of the first day of the year. 5700, on Wednesday, September l3, The holyday falls on the first day of Tishri, the seventh month in the Jewish calendar.
 New Year and Atonement Day, the holy day which occurs ten days later. differ from most Jewish fes- tivals in that they were not the outgrowth of old nature festivals or based upon historic events. In an- clent times, there was but one holi- day in the fall, the harvest festival, After the exile in Babylonia, this holiday was divided into three dis tinct holidays but by the time the second Temple in Jerusalem was de- stroyed, the New Year festival be- came marked with the same ideal ism and ceremony that are prevail ent today.
 While Liberal Jews celebrate one day of Rosh Hashono according to the original plan, Orthodox and NOilcCL NdbiNC VCWo wv days. Observation of a two day fes- tival began when it was not always possible to inform residents in coun- tries outside of Palestine of the date of the holiday. The two day cele- bration was, therefore, introduced as safeguard.
 The Shofar (rams horn) is blown at the synagogue services. One ex- planation of this custom is that its sound will call the people to God. Special prayers are recited on Rosh Hashoro.
 Though primarily day celebrat- ed in the synagogue, the New Year is also a time for family feasts. Something sweet such as honey is usually served in order to signify the hope that the New Year will be filled with blessing. Cards of good wishes and social calls emphasize the keynote of the festival-that a good year be granted to all.
