It will | continue eight days. \‘ Originally celebrated by Hebrew | tribes as an agricultural Spring festi- val, Passover later was transformed | into a ceremony commemorating re- demption of the Jews from Egyptian | slavery. During this celebration | “matzoth,” the unleavened bread, is caten as a reminder of the exodus | of Israel from the land of oppression. | The feasf is ushered in with the| “Seder,” a home ceremony, held on | the eve of Passover. The ritual of the | “Seder” includes reading of “The | Haggadah,” the story of the deliver- | ence of the Hebrews.

HE plate-glass window of the delicatessen in the 700 block of Columbia road was alive with signs. Letters of gold danced with epicurean lure to angounce that in- side might be obtained hot, hot dogs, sizzling steaks, ultradelectable soups. For a hungry man it was madness to read them, and even a dyspeptic would have been tempted. But the door was locked. another sign: Gone to lunch, back in 30 min- utes.” On it x kxS THREE ON THE JOB. IS car had been left parked near H Seventh street and Pennsylvania avenue. When he returned the owner noted a tiny fellow, off a piece from the front fender. In his hand he held a filthy rag, dripping with water. He was cocking his head from side to side, like an artist before his canvas, admiring his handiwork. As the owner came closer to his car he saw two pairs of legs stepping back and forth on the side opposite the curbing. He could see the legs only under the running board. Cu- rious, he watched. Presently the original artist stepped to the gutter. Gravely he dipped his cloth into the trickle of muddy water running there, waited until it was soaked, then proceeded to work again. Back and forth he scrubbed, until the fender was a yellow-streaked mess. Then a pace to the rear again, to contemplate the results. “Hey!"” shouted the car owner. The blast of his voice drew the eyes of all thiee. Their smeared little The owner surveyed the fender nearest him, guessed at the appear- ance of the far side. But—he drew a big paper sack fiom among his bundles. He opened it and held the sack toward the boys. A little hesitant—then three hands dipped in, grabbed each a fistful of candy, and—there were only six fly- ing feet. ko QUERIES IN ROCK. UNDREDS of specimens of rock H come to the Smithsonian In- stitution for identification each | year. Some are from anxious individuals who believe they have found some- thing commercially valuable. Others are sent only to be identified as “hard” or “soft.” In various labor union codes spe- cific directions are given as to who shall work upon any given structure. “Hard” stone workers (those who handle granite, bluestone, the diorites or any ignenous rock) may not work with “soft” stone—such as marble and limestone. Workmen who handle the wrong type are liable for fine or suspension. With sandstone, there is often a hair-line difference. Sandstone from Cockville, Pa., is hard. Others are rated as soft. All marble, except Tennessee marble, is soft. The exact quality must be deter- mined before workmen can proceed with a building. Hence, work on some far-away office building or apartment may be held up a week while specimens are sent to the Smith- sonian or the Geological Survey for identification. = GREEN RIVER ADMIRAL.

James Emmett Sebree, a member of the legal staff of the Board of Tax Appeals, has recently received tangible evidence of its revival. Being a friend of the irrepressible Gov.

Only by tracing back along the weaving line of smoke with one’s eyes could one find the burning yel- low pine. On a log sat Joe, alone, humming a tune to himself. Intermittedly he drew a long puff on a cigarette, kicked the embers listlessly with his foot. Himself black, only the tip of his cig- arette showed that, and his profile was limned against the dying fire. Another figure left the sidewalk and, without comment, took the log on the opposite side of the fire. Joe offered the comfort of a smoke. “Late, ain’t it?” he asked, went on humming. A long time passed. The fire was only a point of incandescence where the pine log ends came together. The second figure rose to go, satisfy- ingly saturated with the old smell of jackpine. “My name's Joe,” said Joe, naEry_——= then “Don’ —— French Pilot Honored. famous French airman, has been | awarded the Grand Prix of the Acad- | demie des Sports of France.
