The Christian holiday, which falls, on Sunday, is called Pentecost or Whitsun day. The Jewish holiday, which begins at sunset Satur day, is called Shavuos. Although Pentecost has held an honored place on the Christian calendar for sev eral centuries longer than Christmas, and Shavuos was an ancient festival before the first Chanukah, both of the older holidays have fallen in to neglect in modern times. Today there are many Christians who do not know what Pentecost is all about, and many Jews who have only a vague idea of the mean ing of Shavuos. Actually, Shavuos has re ligious significance for Chris tians as well as Jews. It com memorates the giving of the Ten Commandments. Date 'Fixed According to Jewish tradi tion, Moses received the Ten Commandments on Mount Si nai seven weeks after the children of Israel began their exodus from captivity in Egypt. Hence the. date of Shavuos always falls exactly seven weeks after Passover. Sleeping Beauty What fun to sew what fun to drift .off to dreamland in this delicious confection!

Boys and girls who have completed their elementary religious education take pub lic vows to uphold the ideals of Judaism, and receive for mal blessings from their rab bis. Pentecost, celebrated seven weeks after Easter, is often referred to as "the birthday of the Christian Church." It commemorates the gift of the Holy Spirit to the first Chris tian apostles. i The new testament records that Jesus promised his dis ciples, at the end of his post resurrection appearances to them, that they would receive power from God to carry out their assigned mission of spreading the Gospel "unto the uttermost part of the. earth." There were only about 120 Christian believers then, and they were. hiding from the au thorities in Jerusalem. The idea that they would go out and preach to ' the whole world must have seemed very far-fetched to them. Apostles Gathered Tradition says that the first Pentecost found the lead ers of the little Christian com munity the 11 apostles gathered in an upper room in Jerusalem. The second chap ter of Acts is not that specific; it simply says they were all with one accord in one place." "And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled . all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and be gan to speak with other tongues . " Many modern Biblical scholars believe that this viv id account was intended to be symbolic. They say the apos tles underwent a spiritual ex perience so moving that they COMING AMERICA'S THIRD LARGEST WILD ANIMAL CIRCUS MEDFORD Sheriff Posse Grounds WED.

C. Marron Clark, in Rich mond on business, said he was sitting across from the door and "kind of watching" little Bucky McNair run up and down the aisle of the DC-4. "Just like a flash," Clark said, "he made a sharp turn, reached up and grabbed the door handle. He put his weight on it and the door opened. That's when I grabbed him." The boy's mother, Mrs. Con rad Buchanan McNair of Ma son, Ga., was seated forward in the cabin attending her 3-month-old son. She did not know about the close call until a few minutes after it happened. Clark said the door opened about a foot, "but it was enough for him to go down. He was right on the edge."
