In stead of the ordinary yeast bread, a species of large cracker called Mat- zoth. or unleavened bread, is eaten. During Passover week the orthodox Jew will not even use the same dishes and utensils in which leavened food has been placed. First Service Significant. "The most significant and..beautiful aspect of the Passover celebration Is ihe service held within the Jewish home on the first evening of the feast. "The members of. the family and their guests sit around the supper ta ble. which is spread with festive ele gance. Upon the table are the ‘bitter herbs’ and the roasted shank bone, the egg, the parsley, the bowl of salt water, the unleavened bread and oth er symbols. The service is chanted from a curious old book called the ‘Haggaduh,' which tells about the de liverance from Egypt. "As a rule, the topic for pulpit dls- quisitoln on Passover—particularly in the ‘Reform* synagogues. where preaching is a regular feature of the services —is related to tlie theme of ‘liberty.’ ” Italian To Test New Mastless Wireless — Hope* to Communicate With Ameri ca From France by Im proved Device.
