The Achilles Church, in a reso-
luton sent Gov. Stanley Wednes-

convinced that the Creator Of
all Is an omniscient God and
that He knew what he was doing
when He created the different
races Of man separate and dis
tinct ). ;"
The church said it is opposed
to AL weakened whatsoever Of
the Virginia laws on segregation
and all intereferences with such
laws by forces outside the COM
monwealth."
The Statewide Baptist organ
ization urged its members In 4
resolution passed in Norfolk No
vember 18 to support the United
States Supreme Courts ruling
which held public school segre-
cation unconstitutional.
Earlier the Baptist Brother
hood of Greenville County, the
Calvary Baptist Brotherhood Of

posed the action of the State

QUESTION: Why is the shofar
blown in the synagogue daily
during the current Hebrew month
of Elul?
ANSWER: It was on the first
day of this Hebrew month of Elul
that Moses went up the Mountain
of Sinai for the second time. This
situation followed the episode of
the sin of the Golden Calf which
voided the first trip of Moses and
resulted in the breaking of the
first tablets that Moses received
at Sinai. The second trip was thus
one which was accompanied by
the penitence of the people of Is
rael over the terrible sin which
they committed.
The ascent to Sinai was accom-
panied by the blast of the Shofar
to awaken Israel to it's RESPONSE
bility and ne ed for penance.
Moses remained on the mountain
for 40 days and the 40th day coin
.cides to our day of Yom Kippur,
the Day of Atonement. When he
descended on this day it was at
least realized that the people had
been forgiven.
Our pattern for the High Holy
Days thus resembles the events
at Sinai. Just as the shofar was
blown at Moses ascent we blow
the shofar during Elul as a call to
penitence. Just as the 10th day
after the first of Elul was the
day when forgiveness seemed as
sured so do we look forward to
the Day of Atonement to bring us
our pardon from the Lord. 1t used
to be custom to fast during these
40 days and on public days the
Shofar was always blown as a
symbol of calling the people to
penance.

QUESTION: Why is il custom
airy to visit the cemetery during
these days?
ANSWER: Visiting the ceme-
terry was customary in times of
need or trouble. Approaching the
day of judgment, one feels the
need of aid in order to receive
good judgment from on high.
Thus it became customary to visit
the cemetery and to ask the de-
ceased to intercede for us before
the throne of the Almighty in the
case of our judgment.
Others claim that a visit to the
cemetery turns the heart to pen
ance since it shows us the fragil-
ity of human life and its depend
ence upon the mercy of the Lord.
Still others feel that in doing so
we pray for the souls of those
near and dear to us who have de-
parted since they, too, need the
forgiveness of the Lord. Some
v;c;+ 4ho So1l1S of the SANITY Rab-
bis and righteous figures of the
times to beseech them to pray for
us before the heavenly throne OF
judgment. Usually charitable con-
tributions are accompanied by
these visits to the cemetery, thus
combining the three saving agents
of charity, prayer, and penance
into one.
