It is a custom among the Ashkenazim to blow the Shofar each weekday morning at the end of the shacharit service, throughout the month of Elul. However, on erev Rosh Hashanah, one does not do so, in order to make a distinction between the customary blowing during the month of Elul and the obligatory blowing on Rosh Hashanah, and this also applies if erev Rosh Hashanah occurs on a Friday. However the "Authorised Daily Prayer Book of the United Hebrew Congregations of the British Empire" (popularly known as the "Singer's Prayer Book") states that if erev Rosh Hashanah occurs on a Friday, one does blow the Shofar. I cannot find a source for this which is brought in the Singer's Prayer Book. Can any user please let me know the source for this. Thank you. Simonschaim ( talk) 08:54, 17 September 2020 (UTC)
Thank you Alansplodge. However this is the source where I found it, and I am searching for the source from where they took it. כתיבה וחתימה טובה Simonschaim ( talk) 17:40, 17 September 2020 (UTC)

I have looked at List of US wars and have counted 118 wars that the USA has been involved in. I may have counted wrong, so please allow me some leeway either way. My question is; is this list comprehensive as I have heard that there is a place in the USA which has a list of each war the USA has been involved in and that there is a stone for each war and that these stones ring the hotel (?) several times. Where is this place, I believe it is on the east coast as I was told by someone who did a road trip from Florida to Canada up the east coast. In summary, how may wars has the USA been involved in and where is the aforementioned place. Thanks -- 11:11, 17 September 2020 86.186.232.90
One A F Olden, described as Chairman of the Norwegian Peace Society, contributed the chapter "The Northern States and their relation to the European Situation" to Forbath, Alex, ed. (1938). Europe Into the Abyss: Behinds the scenes of Secret Politics. London: Pallas Publishing Co Ltd.. I would be interested to know more about A F Olden, and the Norwegian Peace Society.
