JEWISH FESTIVAL UfSU((0TH The Jewish holiday season which be gan with "Roshha-Shonah" (new year) two weeks ago continues yet to-day being called "Hoshna Rabbna" because of many additional prayers beginning "Hosh'na," "Save, we pray thee' which are recited. Seven circuits with the four symbols of the harvest are made in the synagogue and additional willows are held in the hand during prayers. The entire festival is chiefly "a season of rejoicing" ("Zeman Simichathenu") but even in the mist of joy the frale human life is not forgotten and during the festival the Book of Koheleth ("cles iastice") is read. The "succah" or both is intended to serve for seven days. If the weather isadverses and the owner and his family cannot dwell there, meals at least, are taken there. The roofing is made of any durable material, and con sists usually of leaves or branches of trees thru which the sky can be seen. The young jewish children usually decorate the "succah" with beautiful flowers and fruits. Particularly in the east side of New York is the custom of building "succah" very general every yard being utilized for the purpose. Others use the roof or even the fire escape, tenants in the houses combining to pay expenses of their erect ion and the necessary green boughs to cover them and taking their turns in occupancy. Those what are 10 poor, or unable to nave a "succah" of their own repair to one belonging to the synagogue, where they worship and fulfil a part of their duty by making "Kidush" (santifi ation of the festival") there. The copies of President Roosevelt's Harrisburg speech wh ch were sent to the daily papers were printed in the "simp lified spelling." but an Eastern paper points out that mere were six words so used out of a total of 8 600 in the speech. Dr. Osier' mother is living at tie age of 1 00 in Toronto. She is reported to be bright and spry, too. Long may she live on to exemplify the absurdity of her son' theory.
