without critical observations. So the
Midrash of the good son, eager for in
formation and of the wicked one, equal
ly eager to show off his irreverence, was
taken for granted on the ground of a
misquoted biblical passage, but it could
not fail that in the course of time some
reader noticed the incongruity. He cor
rected the biblical quotation so that the
good and bad son said practically the
same thing. When the quotation was
right, the derivation from it, was ma
turally wrong and the dialecticians had
the occasion of their lives in trying to
square the circle. Many of them are
still engaged in this task.
Another curiosity of printers trick
in editing the Passover Haggadah de-
serves to be mentioned in this connec-
ton. The first Hebrew printing presses
were established in Italy, then the in
dustrially most advanced country of
Europe. The growing demand for print
ed books, especially for those which
met popular demand, like Pentateuchs
and prayerbooks, suggested to an enter
prising Italian printer to establish a
branch office in Prague, the seat of a
large congregation and centrally locat
ed for the commerce with eastern Eur

ope. There in 1926, the first illustrated
Haggadah was published. 1t is, by the
way, masterpiece of Typography and
wood engraving. Some unknown rogue
allowed himself a trick on his wife. He
illustrated the words: "These bitter
herbs which we are eating" by the fig
ure Of man holding a bunch of vege
tables in his outstretched hand, and put
under it the legend: 1t is customary in
Israel that the head Of the house, when
saying these words, points to his wife,
OF course, there is no such custom re-
corded anywhere, and the whole idea
originated with the editor who must
have had some bitterness at home.
Copies Of this book are exceedingly
rare, so rare that even the late Moritz
Stenschneider who knew more about
Jewish books than any man before or
after him, doubted the existence of such
a book, yet there is one copy found in
the British Museum and another one,
the gift of the great American maecenas
of Jewish learning, Judge Sulzberger,
in the library of the Jewish Theological
Seminary of New York Human ma
ture is irrepressible. The ghetto with
all it's solemn piety and it's sadness had

STATE AUDITOR MCINTOSH MAKES
EXHAUSTIVE REPORT ON THE
CASE TO GOVERNOR CATS, FOR
USE IN PROSECUTION.

Marvin c. Mcintosh, State Auditor
has handed in his final report to Gov.
Sidney J.. Cats, concerning the alleged
shortage of J. W. w. Rast, former Tax
collector of Duva1 county. In his re-
port he states that Mr.. Rast was ap-
roximately s144.s61.39 short in his ac-
counts. In a former complete report
to the governor. he stated that Mr.. Rast
was SAG, 100000 short, but there has
been a payment on September 7th, of
funds Of the credit at the close Of bust
ness to Mr.. Rast's account of s4,9S4.94.
which brings it down to the present
shortage.
The report of Mr.. Mcintosh shows
that on December 81, 1916, Mr.. Ra st
was S99,719.35 short. This shortage
according 10 the report, ran back
through the years of 1916. 1915, 1914
and 1913 as follows: 1913 roll, s664365;
1914 roll, s34,015.24; 1915 roll. s42,057-
IS; 1915 roll, s1s,062.6S; making the
above total. The other shortage of
approximately s44,oo0.00 is said to have
occurred since 1916.
Mr.. Mcintosh has been at work for
three solid months on this case and
his report is very exhaustive in detail
work. The report will be used in the
prosecution of Mr.. Rast for defalcation.

MEN
WANT HANCOCK
TO PUSH W. S. S.
ASK THAT BOOTHS FOR SALE OF
BABY BONDS BE ERECTED AT
PENSACOLA SHIPYARD-WILL
COMPLETE PLEDGES

Ship workers in the vicinity of Pen
sacola are clam oring for an opportun-
ity to buy War Savings Stamps In a
letter received yesterday by Chairman
2. S. Hancock Of the county committee,
o. F. Salisbury. secretary of the joint
shop committee, asked that a w s. S.
booth be erected at the plant OF the
Pensacola Shipbuilding company at the
earliest possible time.
Mr.. Salisbury IN his communication
explains that many men who signed Up
TO buy w. s. s. at tn erecent drive put
on here, have had no opportunity to
buy the stamps at the plant as the
cards specified. since there is no booth
there. The appeal is that booth be
erected at once and service be assured
for the cashing of checks
The letter points out the fact that
many Of the employees are negroes
and many of them who signed have not
purchased the stamps and that the
same fact is the case with some of the
white men. who need the impetus of a
booth there to assure their purchases.
Owing to the shortage OF help at
the postoffice it is not probable that
Mr.. Hancock will be unable to comply
with the request for the present. 1t
is not his intention to interfere in anv
way with the Fourth Liberty Loan
drive. When that is completed il is
probable that booths WIN be reopened
on the downtown streets each SatlIr-
day, as they were previous TO the Loan
drive.
