In making up our As- sociation we choose men with :ninds and fingers trained for the special branch in which we employ them. Each operator Is employed constantly on the work for which he is best fitted, and this much doing of the same thing makes him very skillful. His skill makes his work good, Bis fingers quick.

SERVICES CONDUCTED BY RABBI STERN —— Address by Mr. Wolf and Music by Special Choir. 924, 926, 928 7th, DAY CLOSES AT SUNDOWN ‘The solemn service which is prescribed by the Jewish ritual for the Day of Atone- ment was begun last evening at sunset by the Washington Hebrew Congregation in the First Congregational Church, the use of which had been tendered for the occa- sion. The attendance was very large, the auditorium being crowded. Rev. Dr. Stern, paster of the Hebrew Congregation, who presided, was assisted by President I. L. Blout and Mr. Philip Peyser, the latter being, it is said, the old- est member of the congregation. The music, which was very fine and had been rehearsed speciaily for the occasion, was rendered by a choir composed of twen- ty voices, with Dr. George W. Walter as organist and director. A quartet, composed of Mrs. Neilie Wilson Shir-Cliff, Mrs. S. Martin, Mr. William D. MacFarland and Mr. John J. Nolan, sang selections at ap- propriate intervals. Dr. Stern preached an appropriate dis- course. He called attertioa to the impres- siveness and solemnity of the occasion and reminded those present that they ought to weleome and be very grateful for the blessings of a day whoily set aside for selt- examination, with a view to moral and re- ligious purification and improvement, and, = such, observed since the days of Abra- am, Dr. Stern mentiored a number of instances to illustrate the steadfast and unchang- ing-faith of the Jews, and said they had gloriously vindicated the truth that the Jew of today, like his ancestors, can and will suffer if need be for a principle. In conclusion the speaker reminded his hearers that their whole duty as Israelites was by no means accomplished by a mere avowal of belief in the existence and unity of God, and that it was a matter of the greatest importance that the religious home life shall not be permitted to languish and decay. The benediction was pronounced by Dr. Stern. Mr. Wolf's Address. s Services in continuation of those begun last evening were resumed at the same church this morning, and again an im- mense congregation was present. An oration was delivered by Mr. Simon Wolf, who, in part, said: “We ought to fecl at home in these sar- roundings, although visible to the eye Is the emblem of Christian faith—the cross. Strange as it may seem, this emblem be- longs also to the Jew. While the disciples of Christianity have borne into every part of the habitable globe this emblem of their religion, the Jew has borne the cross of persecution, and has been made the vic- tim of oppression in every land where the cross domirated. “Strange and weird thoughts come and go with the sounding of the ‘Shofar’ in a Christian church. They awaken the past and bring to our recollection the thousand and one cruelties through which the Jew as man and citizen of every country has passed. The skeletons of the dungeon and inquisition stalk forth, and seem to be re- animated with flesh and blood at this man- ifestation of Mberality on the part of a Christian church at the close of the nine- teenth ceatury. It proves, most conclusive- ly, that there is in every denomiration, no matter what its bellef, a Klondike of hid- den “humanity which needs but to be thor- oughly known to yield to mankind the golden ingots which for centuries have been buried; which are encircled by passes and canyons, incrusted with the snow of ages, yet, wher the sun of mode-n warmth descends, these glacial conditions disap- pear, and the ‘Edelweiss’ of a diviner civ- ilization spring into eternal bloom. Not Alone in Temple. “But it is not in the temple or in the church alone that the Jew or Christian is representative of God and religion. It is in the outside world and in the great bat- tle of life, in the combat for existence, that we appear in the true spirit. Men and women come and go to the temple of worship and pray inwardly or outwardly, thinking they have discharged their duty, and go out into the outer world forgetful of what they did the moment before—un- charitable to their neighbors, un-Christian to other peoplé, un-Jewish in all the ele- ments which bring the vast concourse of human beings together in kinship and loy- alty to each other. “Religion is not creed, but deed; religion is not that which estranges man from man, but that which brings man and man closer together in affinity and soul-recognition, and let me right here say to my Christian friends that they owe a grea: responsibili- ty to the duties of the hour, in the recog- nition of the social conditions of those who differ from them in faith. “No one recognizes the spirit which ani- mated this Christian congregation in its UiWerality more than I do. I know what it means. The shadow-dance of the creeds disappears, and the sunlight of a brighter dawn illumines our surroundings; and while we are brought nearer and nearer to each other, let each, in his own way, contribute to the amelioration and soften- ing of those asperities which have, so far, kept us apart. There is absolutely no dif- ference in religion; there is in creeds. All men and women strive, or should strive, tor that which is best for the state, and in this direction no one has a priority of claim. Emblems of Grace and Power. “The same Divine Power that made the rose and the lily has made the Jew and the Christian.
