First Architect
The first architect Of the
Bishops Garden was the late
Mrs. G. C. F. Bratenahl, wife of
the Very Rev. G.. c. F. Bratenahl.
who served as dean of the
Cathedral from 1915 through
1886.
Mrs. Bratenahl conducted ex-
tenSive research into the records
of medieval gardens, consulted
worn tapestries, Illuminated
manuscripts and rare herbalS
with their crude woodcutS Of
early gardens. Lists of plants
used long ago, even that used by
Charlemagne for his imperial
garden, were scanned carefully.
Almost everything in this
cloiStered garden in the Cathe-
dral close, from trees to flowers
to venerable stones. has been
given as a memorial. One of
the first Of these was the thou
sand-year-old baptismal font
from the time of Charlemagne,
around which Mrs. Bratenahl
created the little herb garden,
"HortuluS," within the Bishops
Garden. With los different
varieties Of herbs. it was pat
termed after a garden described

The carp in the rejecting
pool, which was fashioned from
stones from a quarry owned by
George Washington, are in the
cathedral tradition, too. Carp,
which thrive in pools, were kept
and eaten by the monks and by
many European houses which
observed fast days. The custom
gradually became fashionable,
with these pools later added to
bishops gardens.

author has given the answers to
many questions we have long been

presented some fascinating frag-
ments which round out and add col
orful details to our picture of Jew

"A BANKER LOOKS at Israel"
is the title of Herbert E. Gaston's
article in the Nov.-Dec., 1852 issue
of "Land Reborn, a periodical is

man of the Export-Import Bank,
is in a position to tell us authorita-
lively whether or not the money we
contribute to the United Jewish

He is not at all sentimental about
Israel, nor blinded by prejudice
in favor of the Jews, yet he speaks
warm words of praise for the Is
raelis who took on with sublime
courage tasks that by a cool and

when rabbis were the most highly
esteemed matchmakers in the COM
munity. And when the marriage
"chuppah" was really the bridal
chamber, not-as now-simply a
canopy under which a marriage is
solemnized.
All these facts, historically doc
umented, are presented in Hayyim
Schauss' book, "The Lifetime of a
Jew, which l chanced to find on
the shelves of the public library.
The author is that rare creature,
serious scholar who is able to
present his material in popular
fashion, thus making available to
the general public a fund of infor-
nation which was previously known
only to students of biblical and
talmudic literature.
He tells US delightful stories of
ancient customs. We learn, for in
stance, that Palestinian Jews in
the early centuries of the common
era would plant a tree in their gar
den at the birth of each child: a
cedar for a boy and pine for a
girl. When the child later married,
the wood from his or her tree was
used for building the marriage
chamber.

To American Jews his message
is timely: "None of us is indiffer-
ent to the essential facts of Is
raePs economic situation. The re-
lentless drain on foreign exchange
to meet current needs calls for
continued study of means to con-
serve it, and it also calls for con-
tinuation of the generous help of
friends outside of Israel, especially
of American friends"
Every year at this season, we
American friends of Israel are CIV

state through the agency of the
United Jewish Appeal. Whether our
contributions mean the abolition of
tent cities, the launching of new
industries, the mining of more cop

help the courageous practical ideal
lists of the new Israel.
