Pupils Celebrate
Completion of Siyum
Ill 6
1) 6
A series of siyumitn was
launched last Sunday, Jan. 21,
at the Rose Sittig Cohen Branch
of the United Hebrew Schools. A
class of boys and girls, which
has made a study of the holidays
nd particularly Of the Sabbath,
celebrated this completion, the
siyu tn. with a typical Friday eve-
ning service and supper.
The mothers of these pupils
made arrangements and set the
tables, just as they do on Friday
evening's in their Own homes,
With candles, flowers, well pre-
pared dishes, and everything
t hat adds beauty to the Friday
night table. The girls of the
class lighted the candles and
chanted the Blessings. The boys
recited the Kiddush.
They partook of the well pre-
pared food, they sang Z emi roth,
special Sabbath songs which are
sung at the table, and they con-
cluded by reciting the grace af-
ter the meals. The entire observ-
ance was impressive. The par-
ents and the children were then
addressed by Rudolph Zuieback,
the president of the schools, and
Solomon Kasdan, principal of the
Rose Sittig Cohen Branch. David
Shackney is instructor of the
class.
Such celebrations in connection
with the completion of an impor-
tant. unit of study will now he
held from time to time in all
the branches of the United Heb-
rew Schools.
