In many big towns in Spain there
are beautiful remains of the ancient
.Jewries, tie streets and buildings hav-
ing been preserved intact to this day.
There are, for instance, says the Jew
ish Tageblatt of New York city,
several fine residences which belonged
to wealthy Jews before 1892, espec-
tally the two beautiful synagogues in
Toledo, with their Hebrew inscrip-
tions. In Cordova, an important part
of the old Jewish quarter still exists,
and there is a beautiful little syna-
gogue with inscriptions around the
building which is situated in a street
named Gale Malmonides. In Seville
there are four churches which were
formerly synagogues. One of the
most beautiful Jewries is that of Cor
dova, the birthplace of Malmonides
(Ramban). 1t is built in a fine
Gothic style, and the old communal
house is now used as school. In
Saragossa there are whole streets of
the old Jewry still preserved with
residences of wealthy Jewish denizens.
Another old Jewry is that of Pom
-tevedra, which is supposed to have
been the town where the alleged
Jewish forbears of Columbus lived.
There are thousands of Spanish fam
lilies bearing Jewish names, and they
know they are of Jewish extraction.
Several members of the Spanish no
bility are also of Jewish origin. 1t
is very remarkable that the Jewish
type is even still preserved with such
purity in those parts of Spain which
have large Jewish communities, es-
pecially Andalusia and Catalonia.
Never can one see in Europe such
beautiful eyes, natural elegance, and
most attractive elasticity and dignity
as are to be found in Seville and
Granada.

at night, and call them delightful

wonder how we ever endured those
tramps through the mud. Each night
Mrs. Duane would ask, What did
you find today boys?" The only
answer we were able to give was,
"Lots of tracks," One morning it
was raining so hard we could not go
hunting, and we were wondering how
to spend the day, when the lady of
the house said, "Boys let's all three
60 hunting today. You won't need
your rifles though. I'll show you
lots of tracks and you can use the
scrubbing brush." However, all good
things come to an end, and that day
| received word from my wife that
she had a new cook, and since we had
failed to obliterate all the tracks that
were in the house, it was up to me to
choose between another day with the
scrubbing brush, or giving the new
cook a fair and impartial trial. l
decided in favor of the latter, and left
for home that night, and ! assure you
if l ever visit the Duane's again, l
will surely let you know of my trip.

MY VISIT TO THE DUANE'S
Read Before the Quarterly Meeting of the Pan Chauauqua Circle
Sunday January 3Oh, 1921, by Mr. Il. r. G.

With that we left the stranger and
continued on our way. AS we ira
veled on, we passed a small repair
shop at one of the forks in the road,
and | noticed sign on the building
reading something like this, "Autos
repaired, Fords hatched;" and it
brought to mind the fact that Ford
is "rattling" good car. l did not
get much chance to carry on my share
of the conversation, as Neale kept
saying over and over, II wouldn't
care if that fellow hadn't called me
dirty rogue" l did manage to quiet
him, however, by suggesting, "That he
keep quiet before someone came along
and proved he was"
Just at this time the jitney stopped
dead and refused to 60 any further.
Neale got out and started to crank.
He cranked and cranked and, we'll l
guess he would have been cranking
yet, if l had not suggested that he
look under the hood, which he did
only to jump back with an amazed
expression on his face. / anxiously in
quired, "What in the world is the
matter Neale 7" "Great Scott" he re-
piled, there is no engine in the darn.
thing" and sure enough there was
none. The jitney had run fifteen
miles on it's reputation.
Beside the road, just inside the
fence, there was a fellow tinkering
with broken down hay mower. Soon
he gave up in disgust and watched my
friend as he stood studying the best
way to get new reputation" for
Henry" Finally he asked, "Hey,
what do you call that contraption?"
(I suppose he was trying to find out
the name bf the machine) but Neale
replied II should call it an Auto-mo-
bile, but l don't. "A little later l
asked the stranger, "By the way what
do you call your machine (Mean-
ing was it a Mccormick, Deering or
Minnesota), and he answered, II
should call it an Auto-mow-hay, but
it won't"
As we could not find new "repu-
tation" for the jitney, we had to leave
it at the side of the road, ,and continue
on foot, finally reaching our destina-
ton without further mishap. The
first thing l noticed was Mrs. Patsy
Whelan coming out of the next house.
Now l knew Mrs. Duane and Mrs.
Whelan had quarrelled every time
they had met for number of years,
so | asked Neale if the Whelans were
next door neighbors. He answered,
eyes, and that will show you how
much my wife likes to argue, for she
rented this place two years ago, so
that she might meet Mrs. Whelan
oftener."
Going into the house we came
upon Mrs. Duane with her young
son sitting on her lap looking through
picture album. The picture before
them was scene of Daniel in the
lions den, and Mrs. Duane was say
ing, "Sonny that's what | want you
to grow up to be, a manly looking
man like Daniel. Just look at him,
The mirror., 1921-02-24

he's not a bit afraid of that lion is
he?' Sonny looked at the picture,
then at his mother, and after taking
second look at the picture he said,
mo mamma he amt, but mamma
take another look, see, the lion amt
bit afraid of Daniel"
Looking at Sonny little closely l
read the unmistakable sign of a recent
crying spell, and as soon as his mother
started to prepare supper l called up
on Sonny to tell why he had been
crying and with little coaxing l got
him to admit that his mother had just
administered whipping. When
asked what for" he told me, as near
as / can remember, the following
story: 1t seems that a short time
after the Duanes had moved to Mid
vale, Sonny had been outside Jim
Gorman's apple orchard, gazingly
longingly at the big, ripe, red apples,
wondering as to the easiest way to ac-
quire few of the same, when another
lad had come along and throwing open
the orchard gate invited Sonny to
help himself. He did not wait for
second invitation, nor did he stop to
iisa.uife who his bercfactor was, but
climbed into the nearest tree and was
soon busily engaged tucking the big
gest and reddest apples he could find
in his pocket 1t was while in this
'his land of dreams" that an eager
voice called up to him, "Say can you
run? If you can, beat it; if you can't
you're in an awful fix" Looking
down he saw his benefactor running
as hard as he could out of the gate.
Looking in the opposite direction he
saw very angry "Old Jim German"
hobbling toward him, shaking big
stick held in his hand. Sonny didn't
take into consideration the fact that
it had taken the old man two months
to locate him, for when | asked him,
"What did you do, run?" He said,
"Well that was two months ago, and
they never got close enough to lick
me until today" He must have done
considerable running.
For reasons previously stated, had
not been enjoying very hearty meals
for number of days, so was prepared
when the call, "Supper's ready"
came. Mrs. Duane had had poor
luck with her baking that day, and
Neale started to apologize for her,
when she spoke up and said, "Oh, he's
used to that, that's all he gets at
home, he would never have known
the difference if you had kept quiet"
| am evidently supposed to be good
judge of cooking.
Neale and l arose ahead of the
others, ate hurried breakfast, and
went off into the woods looking for
game. In this we were very unfor-
tunate, for all we ever saw were
tracks where the game had been

work one night, tired and
weary, l was fortunate enough
to get the last seat in the car. Soon
two young ladies got on. As tired as
| was l gave one of them my seat,
and moved to the back platform. The
other remained standing until she
reached her destination. AS they were
getting off was somewhat startled
by hearing one of them say, Gee
there was only one easy mark in that
whole darn bunch"
Arriving home my wife greeted me
with the remark, The cook has
quit" 1t seems that my wife had vio-
lated one of the rules of the cooks
union by entering the front parlor,
while said cook was entertaining her
policeman friend. Now as my wife
is a very poor cook, you can under
stand just what that statement meant
to me, so, when few days later /
received word from my old friend
Neale Duane, telling me that he
would call to whisk me away for
few days of hunting and fishing, |
was overjoyed.
In few days Neale called for me
in brand new Henry" He told
me that he would have to procure
some extra tires for the Henry" be-
fore leaving town, so stopping at
store, we entered, and were asked by
one of the managers, Is there some
thing you want, gentlemen?" Neale
informed him he wished to get some
tires for his automobile. The mana
ger asked what kind of car we had,
and Neale said, "a Ford" Smilingly
he turned to one of his assistants and
said, Kindly show this gentleman
some large sized rubber bands" Neale
proved to be a very nervous driver,
and we had only gone short dis
tance when he ran into a pedestrian,
knocking him down. We both ran
to the side of the stranger, helped
him to his feet, and Neale asked, care
you badly hurt old man? Is there
anything | can do for you" The
poor fellow felt himself all over, came
to the conclusion there was nothing
wrong with him, and started to call
my friend some of the worst names |

see my friend was not in the best of
moods, as he asked, "How do you
mean all that, as a joke or an insult"
As an insult you blankety, blank fool
you, how do you suppose | menat it ?"
answered the stranger. My friend
replied, Thanks old man I'd hate to
take that as joke from anyone"
They managed to straighten things
out, Neale agreeing to take the fellow
home, and to pay him as damages, the
equivalent to his last years salary as
a mechanic. Now l knew that my
friend had worked as mechanic last
year for only part of one day, and
noticed the stranger was surprised
when he was handed two dollar bill.
After asking several times, "Are you
sure that is all the money you re-
ceived all last year as mechanic" !"
and receiving the same reply each
time, "That is all" the stranger
blurted out, "Well if you amt any
better mechanic than you are driver,
believe me you were very well paid"
