COSMOPOLITAN TAILORING COMPANY © Cleaning and Pressing Piest Class Work OVER 70 YEARS OF SUCCESS, JEWISH HOLIDAY TO BE OBSERVED FEAST OF PASSOVER BEGINS EARLY ON TUESDAY MORN- ING, MARCH 30 { | The Feast of Passover will bé | observed generally by the Jewish }eolony in Key West, beginning | early Tuesday morning, March 30, | with regular services to be con- ducted at the Synagogue here in observan¢e, of the event. When’ Southern United States is shipping 4ts first-berries north, Palestine is garnering its spring barley crop. It was so in ancient times. And the hatvest in those days, as it has remained in all sim- ple agricultural regions, was an oceasion of solemnity and of joy, It was signa‘ized by an offering to the Lord and by joyous celebra- ton Fb was also--at this season that the ancierit “Israelites wor thelr freedom from Egyptian slav- ery and began. their trek to the holy land. Ever since then, at the time of the full moon. of the | first spring moiith, Nisan, the Jew- j.ish people have celebrated Pass- over, the world’s first festival of freedom, in memory of the pas chal offering of the Exodus and of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, These spring celebrations, like the Christian. Easter, sometimes are unreasonable in our climate, but they are quite timely in the warmer orient in which they.orig inated. , This year Passover comes early, on March 30th. Services in the synagogue and a family sezvice, ¢alled the Seder, mark its opening’ The Seder is held on the eve of the feast dnd is one of the happy family events of the year. It fre- quently brings the scattered mem: bers of a household together from great ‘distances, The service at j the family tab‘e consists largely in recounting the glad old story of the winning of freedom through God's providence. Its symbols, unleavened bread (mat- zos), the lamb bone, bitter herbs and various other things, recall | the incidents of the first redemp- tion of Israel and of its subsequent | history with all its happiness and all its bitterness. Old as the feast is, it is still modern in its appre- ciation, of freedom and its ex- | pression of gratitude to God for His guiding providence and for. the plenty with which we are blessed. $0 THECENTER OF DISTINGUISHED CIAL LIFE IN THE FLORIDA TROPICS & MOTOR BOATING- SURF BATHING- FISHING- GOLFING-WINTER RACING.
