8habuoth derives It name from the
seven week, which elapsed between the
departure of the children of Iarael from
Kgypt and their arrival al ML Sinai. The

when Israel accepted the new moral code
and religious legislation and was aroused
for the first time to the consciousness of
Its new spiritual task and destiny.
As time has passed, Rhabuoth ha gained
a stronger and more impressive bold by
entwining its symbolism about the Im
pressionable child and baa become the
cxcaalon for confirmation In the Jewish
church.
At Temple Israel this year the first
service of Shabuoth will be held next
Tuesday night. Rabbi Coha officiating
and delivering tha aermon, the hour hav

Some Councilmen
Now See Things in
a Different Light
City Clerk Tom Ftynn is enjoying a
laugh at the expense of Commissioner A.
C Kugel of the street cleaning and main
tenance department The laugh I also
on Thomas McOovera and J. B. Hummel,
Ftynn declare.
When the old council on January fo
rt ructed Street Commissioner anyna to
spend not more tha? one-fifth of ha
allotment In any on month he objected
and objected more strenuously when they
later naasid a resolution directing him to
spend no money for street work until the
council had authorised him to do so by
resolution.
Flynn pointed out that he had to meet
emergency repair problems promptly.
The council couldn't are it and told him
when he wanted washout filled or cul
vert replaced to aak them for a resolu
tion and If they saw tit he would be al
lowed to make the repairs
Lea Bridges and Fred Schroeder ob
jected to thla resolution, but toe other
members of the council voted for it
Last night the new commissioners unan
imously rescinded it. upon the motion of
Commissioner Kugel. who discovered
that It was too great a handicap and
anyway did not hitch with commission
plan Ideas.
Flynn say he' completely vindicated
for ever having objected. The commis
sion agreea. for he has been promoted
from a ROW Job as street commissioner
to the city clerkship at X1.S08 a year, and
In this capacity la really an advisory
committee of one with the special duty
of seeing that proper parliamentary de
corum obtains.
