THE NEW YEAR MEMORIAL Interesting Facts Concerning the Ushering in by the Jewish New Year. The. Jewish year is not coincident with .the Christian year, but starts on September 9th. The new year is ushered in, not with the clanging of bells as with us, but with the blowing of the ram's horn, a ceremony which dates back to the earliest ages. The "sound of the trumpet" occurs again and again in Scripture. The trumpet was the recognized signal for Israel. To its sound the host of Israel set out to war, princes were summoned, or the elders assembled before the tents of sacrifices were offered amid the blowing of trumpets, and when they sounded on the eve of the Sabbath all labor, whether of peasant, merchant, or prince, instantly ceased. The trumpets were superseded by the ram's horn, or shophar, as it is called, to commemorate the sacrifice of Isaac by Abraham, when a ram was substituted for the human sacrifice. This feast of the new year is therefore a feast of memorials, for not only does it recall the sacrifice of Abraham. but also commemorates Israel's oath at Sinai "All that the Lord hath said will we do, and be obedient." The prescribed note, says Dr. Herbert Adler, the Chief Rabbi, is an alarm which it customary to repeat thrice, and this note is preceded and followed by a loud trumpet blast; ghus a strain of nine trumpet blasts comp Ho the early rite of blowing the shophar. © In the present' ritual this set of sounds has been extended to thirty by the addition of two varied sets of notes. Taken from the service of the Synagogue, one tra dition compared it to a wail of distress. In another description it is defined as the moan ing of a sigh, and yet again it has been de scribed as cry which breaks off into weep- img and wailing. By sounding the three vari ant strains of the ram's horn, the rabbis sought to preserve in ene or the other of them the ancient 'shout' of the trumpet hat once re sounded in the Temple. If the day of me- morial falls on a Sunday the shoplrar is not The origin of this solemn custom is given in Lev. xxiii became sounded Beyond the Reach of All James E. Clark.
