It -was also stated that Snurwine was a good miner and that his pardon, while the* government is urging the production of every possible pound of coal, would he an expression of patriotism. But While his fellow miners were working for the pardon, the thirty day senteneo expired and Sourwine paid the fine assessed against him and thus bought his freedom.

An army of 1,000 captains and lieutenants of the Vigo County National War Fund association will call on delinquent members reminding them of t^ifir unpaid dues during this week. Thesfe men will do no colleoting, as the association ejn'ploys no collectors •inrt does not send monthly notice. All dues are payable ^voluntarily on the first Of each month at pay stations designated by members.
It is to be regfetted that It becomes necessary for these volunteer workers tk call on some members of the association reminding them of their sacred duty. It is a well-known fact quite a few members have, through oversight or carelessness, allowed themselves to become delinquent. If only they could comprehend the time and trouble that might be saved by p&ving ^heir dues promptly.
This should be the uppermost thought at the present time—the welfare and comfort of our soldiers. Get the habit—pay promptly the firsts of each month.

While he may overlook some payments, he will not refuse to fulfill his obligation.

SUCC0TH
The festival of Suce-oth follows five days after the Day of Atonemen, namely, on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, Tishri, according to the old Hebrew calendar, and continues eight days. In ancient times it was one of the three festival occasions in the year when the Israelites made pilgrimages to Jerusalem, the central sanctuary, to offer sacrifices of thanksgiving for the harvest fruits. From the'numerous references in Scripture to this observance as "The Festival" it was doubtlessly considered as the festival occasion of prime importance in the year.
Succoth Is primarily an agricultural feast. though the name, meaning "booths" refers to the desert period in Israel's history. As enjoined in Lev. xxiii-34—this double character is clearly shown. "When ye have gathered^ in the fruits of the land, ye shall keep the feast of the Lord seven days." "Ye shall dwell in booths—that your' generations may know that I made the Children of Israel to dwell in booths when I brought them out of the land of Egy-pt," Commemorating therefore as it does' the (historic beginning of Israel's life and grounded In the sagricultural life of the people at the great harvest of the year, we can readily understand why it was known »s "The Feast." Other names applied to It in Scrip1 ure representing these two ideas are "The Feast of Tabernacles" and The Feast of ingathering." Like the other festival days in Israel's calendar it was a joyous occasion. Te shall rejoice before the Lord" (Lev. xxiii-40) "And thou shalt be altogether joyful" (I)eut. xvi-15).
In Post-biblical times the festival was observed with many ceremonies of a joyous character, but today, as In the beginning, the distinctive symbol is the booth n which Israel was enjoined to dwell for seven days to commemorate the first days of its natlonatl and religious freedom. TJ»e booth is a lightly constructed temporary abode with a thatched roof, or constructed from boughs of trees in such manner as to protect from the heat of the sun and yet permit free Ingress of air and light. Rich and" poor, high ajid low, were commajnded to live in this same kind of home. The Succoth festival in Israel's life is symbolic therefore of thorough-going democracy, an Ideal indeed which inheres in its age-long struggle, from Rgypt on, for liberty and freedom. The Booth svrnbolizes the house of humanity, which, though built and rebuilt from age to age, must be protected from destructive elements, but in such fashion as to permit the free ingress of the light of liberty and the pure atmosphere of human freedom.
In Its modern observance, the booth Is often built in the temple of synagog, and pulpits are adorned with the autumn fruits. Children's harvest festivals are heKd in which the children bring their offerings of fruits, vegetables, grains, and ftowers, to the temple, which later are distributed among the poor ai}d the sick.
The Succoth festival begins this year on Friday evening, Sept. 20.
