THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

After addresses by the late lamented
DR.. S. N. Deinard and others, several
thousand dollars was Immediately
subscribed. This was really in an
ticipation Of any official action. How
ever, at a special meeting on April
10, 1913, the Board voted to erect
large and thoroughly equipped school
house; building committee of Is
members was appointed, and author
ity for this ambitious undertaking
delegated to it. Mr.. A. N. Bearman
acted as Chairman, Arthur Harris as
Secretary, and J. M. Davis as Treas
urer. Mr.. John Friedman, because
of his experience in construction,
served as consulting member of the
committee.
Then events moved swiftly. The
genial, and ever energetic and gra-
cious Mr.. Joseph Schanfeld was i'm
pressed into service as a purchasing
agent. In the fall of 1913 he secured
three adjoining lots on the corner
of Fremont Avenue North and Eighth
Street, and on August 20 the board
voted to employ Mr.. Stebbins, the
architect for the city Board of Edu-
cation, to draft the necessary plans.
The minutes of the annual meeting
Of October Fl, 1913, disclose a few

the contractor in part payment for
his work. It was also decided that
the old building should be sold, and
committee was empowered to nego-
tate the sale. It was at this meet
ing that two valuable additions were
made to the board, in the persons
of Peter Marcus and Ben Lifshitz.
Had the business operations of these
two men then been dreamed of, we
should hardly expect to have found
the directors going afeld for mort
gagees.
And with the beginning of the war,
financing became even more difficult.
The war relief drive of 1915 drained
the community's resources, and con-
tributions naturally fell off. 1t there
fore became necessary to sell mort
gage bonds totalling $500 to meet
the obligations of the corporation.
Mr.. George B. Leonard served as
trustee to the bond-holders; for his
compensation he bought a bond, paid
out $500, and donated it to the Tai
mud Torah. But, despite all hard
ships, the actual construction was
completed in the spring of 1915, the
structure was formally dedicated and
the classes were moved into the new
building. At the annual meeting in
The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1922-09-22

October, 1915, Mr.. A. N. Bearman was
elected to the presidency of the Or
ganization. He filled that office we'll
for the succeeding five years. A few
months after Mr.. Bearman's election,
DR.. N. N. Cohen was chosen as Sec
rotary; and, to all those familiar with
the affairs of the Talmud Torah, the
invaluable contribution that he has
so generously made of his time and
talents is only too we'll known. And
he is still serving in that office faith
fully today.
With the coming of the war an
other problem arose. 1t became i'm
possible to obtain any additional
teachers who were qualified to keep
up the high standard of pedagogy
already attained. America had not
yet produced any ranking teachers,
and the war closed the import of teach
ers from Russia and Palestine. There
were, therefore, rapid changes in the
staff. Even today negotiations are
being made for an increased number.
But as far back as 1916 the school
boasted, in addition to the principal,
Mr.. Alvin, four excellent men,-M.
Heilicher, S. Zemach, A. Kass and H.
Margalith. The work in the advanced
grades has been done by Mr.. He'll
icher and Mr.. Margalith; the primary
work by the other two. AS disci-
plinarians and pedagogues they COM
pare favorably with any in the pro-
fession.
AS the years of Mr.. Bearman's ad-
ministration passed, large number
of new directors were added to the
board, and among them we find many
of the most active and indispensable
workers in the present organization.
They were: Max j. Kaplan, B. M.
Weisberg, Benjamin Bloom, Michael
Conner, Louis Feigelman, John z. Gel
man, Herman Greenberg, J. C. Green

interesting facts. It appears that at
that date there were enrolled in the
school $50 pupils, 60 of whom were
unable to pay tuition. The charge
borne by the others ranged from so
cents per month to the maximum of
So. 1t was then determined that the
official name of the school be changed
in the articles of incorporation from
the Hebrew Free School of Mime
apolis" to the "Talmud Torah of Min
neapolis." But the most interesting
entry is to the effect that the mem
bers themselves were as yet sceptical
of the feasibility of the plans, and
voted to postpone the construction I'M
til the following spring.
But this scepticism of the general
membership in no way deferred the
jealous board. At special meeting,
about six weeks later, notwithstand-
ing all obstacles, the board voted to
begin it's work Immediately; and it
C. A. Davis. Mr.. Davis was to con-
struct merely the bare building, and
assume the responsibility of financ-
ing it.
The contract price was $4,000. The
Ladies' Auxiliary assumed liability
for the plumbing, heating and light
ing, to the cost of $4,000.
How to raise funds was a diff
cult problem. Every conceivable de-
vice was ,resorted to. When excava-
ton was begun, earth from the mem
orable spot was sold. Later on, bricks
in the building were sold, and the
cornerstone was purchased by Mrs.
Bella Weinberg for $3.50. And
"schnoring" in every guise and under
every pretext was repeatedly INDUCED
in. Yet it was found impossible to
raise sufficient money at the outset.
At the meeting of the board on
May 20, 1914, it was voted that
mortgage for $4,000 be assumed by

With his withdrawal, was effaced the
last aspect of the European cheder.
At the same meeting, the trans
formation of the board of directors
into youthful body was completed.
The change came with the election of
A. N. Bearman as director and Sec
rotary of the organization. Just what
effected his conversion to the cause of
the Talmud Torah is still a matter
sibly have been the influence of his
wife, who had become interested sew
eral months before. Previously, Mr..
Bearman had been Indifferent to Jew
ish affairs: a prominent business man,
a Shriner, he had devoted himself to
secular interests. But he was man
of strength and determination in his
undertakings; and, when he assumed
his role in the Hebrew Free School,
he acted in it's behalf with dynamic
power and intense sincerity. He was
younger man, modern in viewpoint,
and with very considerable inf1u-
ence among the more progressive
business men of the north side. His
enrolment in the cause of the school
meant the immediate adherence of
many valuable, although formerly in
active, friends.
The control of the school was ir-
revocably gained by the younger gen.
GRAFTON. In his work Mr.. Bearman
was incomparably loyal and ener-
getic. Unless absent from the city,
he never missed meeting of the
board during the three years in which
he acted as secretary, and during the
succeeding five years when he was
president.
At the annual meeting in October,
1912, this process of rejuvenation
continued. Others of the old guard
were defeated, and younger men
chosen as directors in their stead. In
deed, so evident was the eventual
doom of the remaining members of
the ancient regime, that shortly after
the meeting, two of them with I'M
expired terms, voluntarily resigned.
Among the new directors were David
Berman, j. M. Davis, John Friedman,
and B. L. Weinberg. When the board
came to fill a vacancy made by the
designations, Mr.. Arthur Harris was
selected; and he served faithfully for
several years in the difficult office of
treasurer.
The most important business of the
annual meeting was the report that
the enlarged facilities on Bassett
Place had already been outgrown, and
that the building of very much larg-
er and better equipped school house
was imperative.
In December committee was ap-
pointed, consisting of Arthur Harris,
chairman, A. N. Bearman and Mrs.
Farbstein, to find suitable location
for a new building.
At an honorary banquet rendered
by the board to one of it's members,
on March 81, 1918, brilliant start
was made in the financial campaign.

berg, A. M. Gross, N. B. Hoffman and
DIR. Thomas Ziskin.
In 1920 two important steps were
taken. After stirring appeals on the
High Holidays, contributions amount
ing to $4,000 were received, and with
these funds the larger part of the
mortgage obligation was met,
and even some of the bonds
red m d. Then the second
mortgage was paid off by the
Ladies' Auxiliary, after years of
strenuous effort at raising funds.
The other notable attainment of the
year was the consummation of plan
to secure credit in the public schools
for work done in the Talmud Torah.
Students who desire to have their He
brew study count towards their gradu-
alton in High School, now need only
take an examination offered by the
Board of Education. Thus an addi-
tional stimulus is given to diligent
and intensive Hebrew preparation.
Mr.. Bearman made insistent ap-
peals for funds to complete the swim
ming pool and to expand the social
service work of the Talmud Torah.
This plea he had made repeatedly
throughout the years of his office:--
Remember, we must have the pool"
We are reminded of Xerxes who, after
his defeat at Marathon, ordered
mental to stand over him and repeat
the words: Remember the Athen-
ians." The magic of that repetition
soon wrought the miracle. Shortly
before his last term expired the pool
was built.
And now we are coming to events
so recent that they must be familiar
to all. We shall not, therefore, give
any details of the last two years
achievement. All of us recall the
testimonial banquet rendered to Mr..
Bearman on the expiration of his
term, at which he was presented with
a silver service. We remember the
very valuable expansion of the ac-
tivities of the Talmud Torah into the
West Side, with the establishment Of
branch school, the appointment
of an additional teacher, Mr.. A.
Schochet, and the addition of three
south side directors, Messrs. M. H.
Harris, Mike Dockman and J. H.
Woolpy. And, Of course, we know of
the extraordinary growth of the So
cial service department; but that, like
the Ladies' Auxiliary, would be an
other story. ....
We shall close our sketch, there
fore, with merely few words of tri-
butte to the new president of the Or
ganization. The narrative of the Tai
mud Torah, like the history of the
Jews, deals not with people as a
group-it is the story simply of the
lives of Individual men. And so with
the growing school. It's success mir
rors the activities of B. M. Weis-
berg, elected President on November
%, 1920, to succeed Mr.. Bearman.

APPEALS TO vACATI0NIsTs.
Asks Tenth of Their Expenses for
GTd of children.

A great many of the residents OF New
York who started yesterday for their
vacations or just for weekend trips had
received through the mails requests
from Miss Lillian d. wald. director of
the Henry Street Settlement, to contrib
ute TO the settlements funds one-tenth
or the costs of their vacation trips, In
order to send into the country a boy or
girl for an equal length of time

has already enlisted members, who esti-
mating that their own two weeks trips
will average 500, have sent checks for
$40 TO give vacation of the same length
OF time to their "understudies' Of the
East Side.
Railroad and steamship companies
say that the summer traffic has never
been so heavy, and that means THAI
thousands of dollars are being spent not
only for fares, but for board and flodg-
ing and the many extras which make a
summer vacation enjoyable" said Miss
Wald in issuing her appeal. "One-tenth
Of the cost of a single trip is not large
sum. bslt, taken in the aggregate, a tenth
Of the money spent for such summer
would give every New York
tenement child long, restful stay in
the country"
Checks should be made out to v.
