lustration of the simple living OF the
Fathers.
"One of our country's pre-Revolu-
tionary fathers had occasion to call
on the governor of his province, and
was invited to stay to luncheon
Luncheon began, and liveried
servant moved busily about, serving
the wine, carving the fowl, and 50
forth.
THE guest watched the servant for
some minutes, and then said to him
irritably:
What are you dance, dance, dane
ing about the room for, man? Can't
you pull up a chair and sit DOWN.
Surely there's enough for the three Of
u.s."

WHISPERED STORY OF RUTH
And Each Little Jewish Girl Was Re,
warded With Feast Cake for
Her Effort.

In the East side Of New York as
In the East end of London, the Jewish
quarter Of Paris or Judengasse of Ber-
lin, thousands Of Jewish mothers and
grandmothers gathered the little
daughters of the family to them one
night recently. Into tiny ears was
whispered the story of Ruth, the faith
full. In each kitchen stood a new
broom, and tallow candles burned
brightly on tables spread with meats,
wines and cakes.
Little daughter" each mother whis-
pered, do you know what Ruth said
to Naomi ?"
yes" each little girl replied eager
ly. She had rehearsed the great epic
for weeks. Ruth said 'Entreat me
not to leave thee, or to return from
following after thee. For whittier thou
goest. / Will go; and where thou lodg-
est, will lodge; thy people shall be
my people, and thy god my Cod"
And, beaming her pride, each moth
Or then said:
Good Here Is cake for you!"
Thus the feast of Shabuoth was
ushered In. The broom was lust as
much part Of the ceremony as the
reward Of cake. With it one could
sweep out the spirits and demons, the
scheidim and masikim, which ghetto
traditions Of the medieval ages insist
are present during Omer, the time be,
tween Passover and Shabuoth.-News
