CHAPTER TO TTENDANCE INCREASING AT CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY — Making Plans for Event to be Held on Purim Night. ich Chapter Hadessah is ‘'making plans for e celebration of its first anniversary ®n the evening of March 8th, the date of the feast of Purim. Plans for the celebration were considered at the chapter’s meeting on Wednesday evening and it was de- voted' to_héld a mask. Rabbi Joseph N. Rosefiberg gave a lecture on the Bi- blical character, Sarah. The commit- tee in charge of the recent benefit concert reported a total of $278 real- ized for the medical uni The Feast of Purim, or Lots, which falls this year on March Sth (corre- sponding to the 14th day of Adar of the is a_joyous miner Hebrew calendar) festival of the Jews and is celebrated by them auspicious deliverance from imminent destruction; as narrated with fine dra- matic power in the Book of Esther. The Purim story takes us back for Hx setting to ancient Persia. Haman, ime minister of the realm and pam- ered favorite of the Kking, feeling himself especially affronted because the Jew Mordecai alone of those at the palace gate had refused him homage, came to cherish mot only a rankling resentment against the one Jew who had crossed him but also a passionate animosity against all the Jews as such. Insorder to work their ruin, he ca- luminated them to the king, accusing them of clannishness and lack of pa- triotism, of being alien enemies and the like—faise charges whi~n have become the stock in trade of ’anti-Semites ever since. Happily, the appeal to race and religious prejudice did not, in this instance at least, lead to outright massagqre of the Jews. The brave'in- tercession of Queen Esther, who in her elevation to the throne did not for- get her people, saved the Jews from the cruel fate which threatened. The archplotter Haman came to an ignom- inious end. And Mordecai, in recogni- tion of the public services he had ren- dered, was given high office. To cele- brate’ the happy outcome, the festival of Purim was Instituted as an annual day of rejoicing, a day of sending of gifts to friends, and remembering the poor. Naturally enough, Purim came to have a strong popular appeal to the Jew during the later oenturies of per- secution. The story of deliverance which Purim told spelt a message of hope and courage to those undergoing sore oppression. And the merry fes- tivities with which the holiday was celebrated brought brightness and cheer into the gloom of the Ghettos. The spirit of Purim was throughout more social than religious. Its observ- ance in the synagogue was limited to the reading of the Book of Esther from the traditional scroll. In and outside of the home, masquerades, playg and other entertainmer=s made up the celebration. The name-Purim is derived, accord- ing to the teymology given in the Book of Esther, from a Persian word mean- ing “lots’” the name being given to the festival because Haman is said to have cast lTots in order to determine the day on which to carry out his plot against the Jews.

Mixed Chorus Has” Won Big Place in ‘Hgarts of the Peopl The attendance at the meetings in the West Side ev@ngelistic campaign at the First BAp:m chureh Is grow- ing in numbers'and interest and every setvice Eives indication that the futare | of the meetings is bright with prom- fse. The large mixed chorus is ren- dering fine service and already has woh a big place in the hearts of the people. The leaders of the campaign are (41l of hope in the fact that such good®attention is given and that so many are availing themselves of the opportunities which such a campaign affords. At the meetings last night Evan- geiist Linden spoke on the subject Your Think Tank on _the Job, in which he emphasized the fact that uniess people had a mind to work, nothing can be done.; He said that when mind is gone the authorities see to it that' a safe retreat is given to the loser of it in the asylum over the hill, because a mindiess MAn is erre- eponsible. Mind has ever directed great enterprises of the world and mind is necessary to win men to God and to Christ. At the service tonight the evangelist will preach on the subject How Rich You Are, or the Value of a Soul. This is considered one of the best sermons the evangelist preaches and no doubt large crowd will be present to hear . " Evangelist Linden's chorus leader, will sing a solo entit’ed What Shall It Profit Thee, Brothe: In preparation for the song concert on Saturday night the large adult chorus choir will have its final re- hearsal tonight, and so all the mem- bers of the chorus are urged to be present. This song concert will be worth while attending. No admission is charzed ‘and every seat is free. The stirring hymns of ~great evangelistic ign wili be rendered and since the chorus of this campaign is one of great ability there is no doubt that a splendid song program will be given. Evangelist Linden is very anxious to organize a large Booster Sunbeam chorus of Norwich boys and girls be- tween 5 and 16 years old. Since no conflicts wili be made in the services of other churches, boys and girls are in- vited to join this chorus, for their pro- grams are given on Saturday evenings, when the other churches have no ser- vices. This chorus will be organized Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock at the First Baptist church. DOGS KILL SHEEP AT ROUND HILL FARM. Have Got Into Herd for Third Time . Since Last August.
