"Well that kind little boy on the

little sparrow. "He wa o ,'rnd to

"But has he forgotten you now?"
asked the mother sparrow. i
"Nro, not really forgotten me." the
little sparrow admitted, "but he don't
pay attention to me a-, he ucd to.
He ius throws out Mime crumbs in I
the niftrning and then hastily slams
the vJndow shut and runs off to
school"

proud and happy and lie played

Yd HAKIPDRIM,
MY OF ATONEMENT,
BEGINS AT SUNDOWN
i
i
Solemn Jewish Ceremonial
Will Be Observed by Mil
lions in All Parts of the
i World.
In the tribunal of heaten nt the trlbutvit
o' fflh. hy lti perml'i'lon "I Ooil.Meel n
He-nJ hr the rermlnilnn of thli hol con
itrKAtlon, we hold It Uwful to pray with the
transgrcMora,
This prayer, chanted to the quaint and
plaintive melody of ages nt sundown to
nlslit In every synasogue and Improvised
synagoffue In the world, from every bat
tlefield and battleship, will usher In the
most solemn day of the .tewlsh year
i Tom Haklpurlm, or the Day of Atone
ment. This year the day, hallowed b It la
'y centuries of devout observance despite
all obstacles, will have an added olenlfl
fanc. For from tho throats of 11,000,000
Jews there will go forth the first unani
mous prayer since the great cataclysm for
, a restoration of peace on earth nnd goofl
will to men.
Hero, In America, where none was dl
I rcctly affected, the synagogues will re-
pound with weeping and walling, for
thousands of those who will offer the
prayer will recall the members of their
i families, particularly In Russia und
, Gnllcla. who have nlrcady fallen or who
j are still on the firing line. In the belllger
I ent lands It wilt cause prostration nnd
hysteria, for It will come from the hearts
of the wounded and the mourners; It
will come from the father aand mothers
as well as from wives and children of
those on the battlefields.
The prayer quoted above Is the one
with which the services begin. It Is
called Kol Nldre, from the Initial two
words. A few minutes before sunset on
the eve of the Day of Atonement, when
the congregation has gathered In the
synagogue, the Ark is opened and tno
rnbbls, or two leading men In the com
munity take from It two Tornhs or
scrolls of the Law Then they take
their places one on each n'dc of the
cantor, and the three begin thr service.
With this service ntso begins the fjst,
which will Inst until sundown tomorrow.
Thp Orthodox Jews observe thli fast so
rlgorouslv that thev w'll not cvn tas'o
water In the entire 24 hours. Many of
them spend the entire time In the syna
gogue, us'ng the time In which they .
ordinarily sleep In the recitation of the
I'salms jnd In other special nrn'rrs
Tho'e who go home for the nlht will '
return to the synagogues aliout C o'clock j
j tomorrov morning and remain thtre nti:
I al.out 0 In the evening. i
In the reform temples the service. arc
I shorter and sevi-ral recrsscs are declined. '
1 The fast will be broken by tho lil'ist
, of tho Shoffar, or the long blow from !
I the ram's horn, after the final service

LURE OF WAR'S SPOILS
HELD UP TO ITALY'S EYES
Frenchman Points Out Conquests
From Austrian Foe.
ROME, Sept. 28. The former French
Minister, President Barthoti, iccently had
an Interview with the Paris correspondent
of the Glornale d'ltalla, In which he
pointed out the advantages Italy would
derive If she departed from her picsent
policy and Joined the Allies. Ho took It
for granted that they would be victori
ous. "If Italy Is on our side," he says, "and
has her share In the glorious combat and
thu final victory, Is It necessary to enu
merate nil she will gain? Sho will rccc 'c
absolutely nnd finally everything Austria
hns hitherto denied her. If France and
England will not object, Rusbla will not
withhold her consent, and thus the threo
great Powers will see to It that Italy will
keep what she has conquered by tho might
of her army."
ALBEftT MOORE
It is his boast that he is the youngest
Philadelphia grandfather.
"DRIVES" BRING IN RABBITS
Bounties Paid in Extermination Cru
sade in Texas.
Down In the Texas panhnndle, some
times referred to ns tho "plains" country,
tho farmors have started a mox'oment to
exterminate the Jack rabbit In the Interest
of tho grain crops. Tho county comm's
sloners of Halo County have placed n
bounty of 3 cents each on the rabbits'
scnlp. Pcvcrnl rabbit "drives" have been
hold near Plalnvlew, the county seat of
Halo County, and up to last Now Year's
Day there had been 9000 rablilts brought
In for the sake of the bounty upon their
heads. Tho choicest ones aie sold to the
local produce companies for tabic use, nt
5 cents apiece, and the cars nre then
taken "to count" to claim tho 3 cents'
bounty. The produce companies have
done a big business Hhlpplng the rnbb ts
away for food, nnd hundreds of those
not suited for such use have been bought
by farmers for hog feed.
Plalnvlew Is In the heart of what Is
known ai the "shallow water belt" of the
plains country, where for several years
past such wom'erful development has
been taking plivrc.

from
The high-sound-ng claims of many car
builders fill the air. But don't buy any car
on the conversational powers of its sales
man or the lure of its printed advertisement.
You are interested in performances not
promises. You want to hnow what the car
really is what it will actually do, both
under ordinary conditions of service and
when it has to meet extraordinary conditions.
It is the ability of the 1915 "Light S:x"
to stand up in extraordinary service that has
made it the fastest selling Chalmers car
ever built.
We know how carefully this car is built
we know the quality of the ma
terials used and we know that
in beauty ruggedness, power,
speed, comfort, convenience, and
strength to meet any and every
emergency of the road the 1915
Chalmers "Light Six" is a
better cur than any other "light
six" selling within several hun
dred dollars of its price,
its construction, and its greater smoothness
and case in riding.
This proof positive tst '3 daily convincing
scores of motor-wise buyers of Chalmers
superiority.
Put this Car Uncbr Fire
You don't vant lo make a bad invstmenl
of your money you don't want to buy a car
that will prove itself a weakling when it
has to meet a real road trial.
WMVcSS
Quality First
The only sure way lo protect yourself is
to buy a car that has proved its stamina
under the hardest demands of
It is undr rigorous conditions
that the Chal-rcrs 1915 "Light
Six" most clearly reveals its
great superiority over others in
its price class. It is doing it
right now for thousands of own
ers everywhere.
And what is more, thousands
of owners the country over will tell you the
same thiny.
Pay No Heed to Pavement
Performance
There's many a car bought on its pave
ment performance that would never have
been considered could the purchaser have
seen it perform over rough roads.
Simply skimming over a boulevard is not
a test of a car in any sense of the word.
That is why we urge you to take this Chal
mers "Light Six" for a long trip over every
kind of roads you can find. For it's then
that the real quality of a motor car asserts
itself. It's then you'll appreciate the hlyher
quality of the Chalmers "Light Six," the
greater power and flexibility of its master
motor, the greater solidity and firmness of
Of ell "IVh s-xes" the 1915
Chalmers "Light Six" is the car
that can most successfully meet such serv
ice because it is a "light six" built on the
basis of "Quality First."
A few big features of the 1915 "Light
Six": a different kind of automobile beauty:
unusually handsome finish; Pullman-like
comfort: a 4b II. P. long stroke non-stall-able
motor which ".stays put"; graceful
molded oval fenders of both strength and
beauty; -.ci tiros "Nobby" trend on
rear wheels; unusually complete equipment
including Chalmers-made one-man top of
silk mohair, quick acting storm curtains, five
demountable rims, one-motion Chalmcrs
Entz electric starter which makes the motor
non-stallable. Klaxon horn, electric lights,
etc And perhaps the greatest feature of
all, the unusually high quality in a car at
such a price.
We are anxious to take
Chalmers "Heal Test" Ride,
day and arrange for it.
