Jews Here to Hold Eight-Day
Feast
of Booths Observance
Festival Symbolizes Ancient Custom of Sacrifices at Jerusalem; - Rabbis’ Conference Explains.
‘The Jewish Feast of Booths, or Sukkoth as it is known in Hebrew, is‘to be ohserved in Indianapolis Synagogues for eight days beginning
Wednesday. The eighth day is known as the Feast of Conclusion and the following day the Feast of Rejoicing in the Law is to be observed. The Central Conference of American Rabbis explains the history of the observance in a statement. “In biblical times® Sukikoth was an agricultural festival’ it said. “It was thie occasion for Jews to make a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, there to lay sacrifices on the ‘altar of the’ temple and to sing hymns of praise and thanksgiving fo God. “Observant Jews still build a Sukkah or small bdoth: in their yards where they eat during this week. It is intended to be a reminder of the time when the Jews lived in such booths during their

APPEARS IN SCRIPTURE PLAYS
Bible Dramas Are Broadcast
Presentations on - Sundays Prove Popular.
Victoria Vola, comely and, talented young leading woman of the Sunday Players, is to be heard over a national radio hookup beginning at 3:30 p. m. tomorrow in familiar feminine roles from the Scriptures. WIRE is to be the local outlet for the program of Bible dramatizations broadcast from Los Angeles. The Sunday PFlayers, ihe first stock group to offer. Bible dramas exclusively, has gained in popularity since organization several months ago. One of the developments which has grown out of the program has been the establishment in many cities of “Sunday Players Clubs.” The clubs meet 15 minutes before the dramatization comes on the air and study the text covering scheduled presentations. After the presentation one of the members tells the story in his own words. The Sunday Player's “Immortal Dramas,” as they are called, are said to follow Scriptural texts closély and to be nonsectarian in character. Miss Vola who is known to her thousands of radio friends and admirers as “Vicky,” originally came from Denver, Colo.

Fray es Capital Shows Modern Trend
Dr. Wicks Says Country Is Making Progress Under Independent Rule.
The following article on Finland is the second of two written for The Times by the Rev. Dr. Frank S. C. Wicks of All Souls Unitarian Church, recently returned. after a study of economic and social conditions in Sweden and Fine land.)
BY FRANK S. C. WICKS | Pastor, All Souls Unitarian Church
In Finland, one of the most ine teresting countries in the world, we may witness the birth of a nation. Though Finns have been living in Finland for 1800 years, it has
only been since 1917, when she won her freedom from Russia, that she has been independent. = We speak of Helsingfors, ‘the Finnish capital, as a new city, though it was founded in 1640. To= day it looks like a new city, since there was little in the old wooden town worth saving after a couple of centuries of fires and fighting. We see today a magnificent Parliament House, 89 mighty railroad station and sho s, apartments, banks, cooperative stores, office buildings, schools and churches of modern architecture.
Few Unemployed
There is no nobility or lower class in Finland. One is rather shocked to see women paving streets. Though frugal living is found among _the workers there is no actual desti= tution. There aré no slums and about 15,000 unemployed out of a population of 3,000,000. One can not avoid noticing the athletic appearance of the women. There is a proverb that “One Finnish Woman Is as Strong as Two Frenchmen” and you may well be lieve it when you contrast the minc= ing steps of the free woman in Paris with the stride of these women. Occasionally you see the native costume—a country girl clad in the striped skirt and the silver clasped bodice of her province.
which centers of the Apostleship of Prayer have been established, it has been announced by the Rt. Rev. William F. Keefe, pastor. Ceremonies establishing the new league and a period of enrollment are to take place in Holy Cross Church at 8 p. m., Oct. 2. The ceremonies are to climax a Triduum in honor of the Sacred Heart, which is to begin Wednesday evening at the church. The services Wednesday and Thursday evenings will be conducted
of a Society of Jesus priest. Persons ‘wishing to enroll in the league are to present their names on the first two evenings of the Triduum service, which are open
to any Catholic in the. city wishing to attend.
Weekly Sunday School Lesson Review: Christianity in Asia
Texts: Acts 14:27
BY W. E. GILROY, D. D. International Uniform Sunday School Lesson for Sept. 27. E HE 12 lessons of the quarter have dealt with the most momentous movement in history, and the. one affecting most deeply the life of civilization today. This movement was the spread of Christianity in western Asia. Lessons of the coming quarter will deal with Christianity’s spread in Europe. Following the remarkable . outpouting of the Spirit on the day of the Pentecost, success of the new Christian movement aroused persecution, and the Christians were scattered from place to place. A great center of the new faith was established at Antioch in Syria, a city of great splendor and prosperity, but notorious for its licentious living and every manner of evil. Here, in this place full of iniquity, the Gospel, with its power to save men from sin, so laid hold of the lives of men that they had the impulse to go forth and tell everywhere the story of Jesus and of what He had done for them. ” un ”
HE missionary motive and the missionary power found their deepest expression in a Jewish convert who had at first been a persecutor of those of the faith.
Stricken with blindness on the way to Damascus, hearing a voice that challenged his persecuting, Saul, to be known afterward as Paul, turned all his passionate enthusiasm toward the service of the new religion, and began the period of preparation that was to make him the great missionary of the new faith to Europe and the regions beyond. Here was a definite beginning of world missions. As the new religion had quickly become something more than the religion of a sect, with the decision of the council at Jerusalem that Gentile converts were not sub-

ject to the demands of the Jewish ritual, so now we see Christianity going beyond the bounds of territory, nationality, and race. It became a means of blessing and salvation to men, regardless of race, color, or political allegiance.
” ” 2 HE practical nature and value of these lessons must surely be realized when we observe how far the world of Christendom still
lags behind this great conception of the Gospel, its power, and its comprehensiveness. Even those who name the Chris-
tian name are still so commonly |
limited in their vision by nationality, and by considerations of race or color, that the greatest problem before the Church even today is this problem of breaking down all barriers, and giving the Gospel free course, that it may be glorified among men.
Visitor to Preach
While practically all Finns belong to the national Lutheran Church, they are most tolerant, permitting a number of Orthodox churches. While the Greek Church has only 1.8 per cent of the population it receives 12.5 per cent of the church appropriation. : Harbor Old Hate ’
Although for many years under Russian rule, they never allowed themselves to be Russified and their war for freedom: has left a hatred for Russians. There is little natural wealth in Finland, save its forests. Three= fourths of the land is covered with pine, spruce and birch. Almost & t’ ird of the people depend upon the land for a living. Ninety per cent of her exports are wood and products derived from it. The country is a paradise for the working man. You can find cl3an= liness, the best ventilation and the most progressive working methods in the factories. The eight-hour day with liberal vacation schedules is in effect in nearly every indusiry. Making for prosperity, there is a remarkable development of co-op-erative societies. The farmer sells his butter through the butter export co-operative society and gets his
Credit Institute. He buys his ugri= cultural implements through a cooperative and his wife buys her wardrobe through one.
Thrift Is Characteristic
There are now seven thousand such societies in Finland today. Finland, alone ‘of all the countries who owe the United States war debts, has paid us with interest. The Finnish character of thrift, prudence and good management, is probably responsible.
