New York Sept 7 At sunset to-
morrow evening the Jewish people
throughout the world will hegln the
celebration of Rosh Hashanah or the
festival of the New Year It will be
the beginning of the year 5GCS of the
Jewish calendar which Is traditional-
ly supposed to count from the crea-
tion of the world The celebration of
the New Years festival is more gen-
erally observed by the Jews than any
other of the numerous feasts and I
fasts in their calendar with the sin-
gle exception of Yom KIppur or the
Keast of the Day of Atonement which
follows close upon it
Among orthodox Jews whose num-
bers in this city have been greatly in-
creased In recent years by immi-
grants from Russia and Poland the
ceremonies in connection with Rosh
Hashanah extend over two days
With what Is termed the reformed ele-
ment those who have accepted the
modern interpretation of the scrip-
tures while the celebration of the
festival is as strictly observed as
among orthodox it is confined to one

Iten dance upon the religious services
aththe synagogues
Apromlncnt feature of the services
in the synagogues is the blowing of
the rams horn or shofar The reason
for blowing the horn can be traced
back to the beginning of the Jewish
race and is supposed to remind the
children of Israel that the time for re-
pentance is at hand and they should
rclalze that they have committed sins
which should be atoned for After the
blowing of the horn special services
and prayers are held to commemorate
tho occasion
In addition to the regualrly estab-
lished congregations worshipping all
the year round in places of worship
owned and rented by them the need
of many Improvised synagogues Is
imperative owing to the great number
of Jews on the East Side especially
who do not belong to any established
congregation but who desire to take
part In the celebration of the festival
To fulfill this need every available
hall and place of public meeting on
the East Side many in Harlem and a
number in the Bronx have been fit-
ted up as temporary places of wor-
ship The seats in these improvised
synagogues are bought by those who
desire to worship at these places but
there Is always a provisionmade for
those who cannot afford the expendi-
ture so that no one desirous of taking
part in the service is turned away
