ROSH HASHANAH, THE HOLY
SEASON wITH HEBREWS, WAS
USHERED IN SUNDAY.
rhe feast of Rosh Hashanah, or
New Year's day, which inaugurates
the most .olemn_season of the Jew
ish religious year, began on Sunday
evening, September 12, and lasted
until sundown yesterday, the 13th.
Among orthodox Jews, who cele
brate two dayss the following day,
+oday, is also observed. The Hebrew
residents of Dawson closed their
places of pusiness in observance of
the occasion. :
The observance of this day as a
holy season is commanded in two
passages of the five books of Moses,
nsmely Leviticus xxiii:24-25 and
Numbers xxix:l. In .n.exther pas
sage 1S there any specific command
as to how the day §hall be observed
peyond the injunctions to.blow the
trampet, to hold & holy convocation,
and to engage in no occupation.
In the Jewish tradition the Rosh
Hashanah marks the anniversary of
the creation of the world, supposed
to have taken place 5,680 years ago.
The present Rosh Hashanah, there
fore, marks the beginning ~ of the
year 5,681.
*“The change of date, however, is of
little or no importance, and if the
fJewi\h New Year’s day had no furth
oo sionificance its appeal to the Jev
would be very faint indeed. It is not
the change of year but the change
of life which this day stresses that
makes it stand out_as one of the
holiest /days in the Jewish calendar.
Herein it radically differs from our
civil New Year; it is a day set apart
for introspection and self-examina
tion. The sacred character of this
day is implied in the two other
names by which it is known, viz: the
Dav of Memorial and the Day of the
Blowing of the Trumpet. In the first
nlace it is the Day of Memorial, or
Pcmembrance. As such it calls upen
ihe Jow to remember the divine pur
-1 ¢ his life. Secondly, it_is the
Dav of the Blowing of the Trumpet.

his self-complacency and stir him to
high resolves and nobler deeds.
Rosh Hashanah derives its signi
ficance from the fact that it is but
the introduaction to the Day of Atone
ment which follows ten days %ater.
Before one can realize the need of
atonement it is necessary that he
become conscious of his shortcom
ings; for so long as we imagine our
selves perfect it may never occur to
us that we need a physician, so long
as we do not admit our sinfulness
we shall hardly feel the need of be
ing forgiven. Hence, to make the
atonement possible we must have
Rosh Hashanah, which is also desig
nated as the Yom Hadin—the Day
of Judgment—the day whereupon we
weigh ourselves in the scale of jus
tice and, perforce, find ourselves
wanting, for ‘‘there is no righteous
man upon earth that doeth good al
ways and sinneth not.”
The New Year’s day in the pass
ing of the centuries has thus come
to embody the great religious ideas
of divine justice and human respon
sibility. As the beginning of the Jew
isH religious year it emphasizes the
religious - uniqueness of the Jewish
people, the servant of the One God,
the priest people of humanity. :
MR. COXWELL BADLY (

HURTIN A RUNAWAY§
\
Well-Known Farmer Was Found on}
Roadside in Unconscious and |
Bloody Condition. |
As Mr. Ed Coxwell was returning
from Dawson to his home in the
country the mule he was driving be
came frightened near Chickasaw
hatchee ¢hurch and ran away. As he
attempted to stop the mule one of the
lines broke and Mr. Coxwell jumped
from the bugegy. As he did so he be
came entangled in the other line and
was dragged a considerable distance
down the road and into woods near
by. Elder R. H. Jennings and Mr.
0. B. McCoy, who were near, saw
the runaway and followed. They
found the injured man in an uncon
scious and bloody condition.
The services of a physician were
obtained as quickly as possible,- and
after a thotough examination it was
found that Mr. Coxwell while badly
bruised had sustained no serious in
juries and will probably be out in a
few days.
The mule was stopped in its wild
flicht when the buggy overturned in
the woods. The animal was alsos
thrown to the ground, where it wds
lying when the rescuers arrived.

WAS INJURED IN OKLAHOMA
TWO WEEKS AGO BY A FALL
ING SMOKESTACK.
Mr. W. H. Dismuke returned Sun
day from Oklahoma, where he was
called by the serious condition of his
son, J. T. Dismuke, who was the vic
tim two weeks ago of an accident
which came near costing him his life,
The young man was .rendered un
conscious by a blow on the head
from a piece of falling smokestack
at an oil mill which he was helping
others to take down. Every one but
Mr. Dismuke ran from the place of
danger and escaped injury. It is
'supposed that he slipped and fell on
the soft ground.
Mr. Dismuke Jreports very little
change in his son’s condition. He
has never recovered consciousness,
but the physicians hold out the hope
that after several weeks’ treatment
he will in all probability be restored
to health, . :
