CELEBRATE NEW YEAR FESTIVAL

On Monday, September the thirteenth the festival of the Now Year (Rosh Kaahanah) will be observed by the Jews of the entire world. Like all the other Jewish holy days, the fe;'tii al commence.3 at sunset on the preceding: day. Orthodox Jews observe two days whereas Keforin Jews keep only or.o day. The festival of the New Year ! one of the most Important in the whole Jewish calendar. It i? the f.rst of a font 5 of holidays lasting nearly a month. It Is likewise the be sinning o." the JewLv. year and one of its principal features is th blowing of the Si'.ofar cr rom's horn. Apart from its joyful and festive nature Kcsh Hashanah Is rich in morel import and significance. The fact that It Is the beginning of the New Tear lends it :-pec'a! saeredness. It Is the t.me of higher resolves, the t :rr.!ng point of the year. It is the csy which brings home to the Jew with great force the lesson t?.at the time is short and the work 13 great, u.-.d that, as; each year rolls quickly by, the task must be accomplished within a shcrter period. The festival is a gentle reminder of the brevity of human existence, but it optimistically stresses' the doctrine that man, far from beir. a playthl-g in the hands
