To My Way of
Thinking
by
Rabbi Israel H. Weisfeld

(Continued from Last Week)
the morr ow. For, that type
man is happiest when all his
thoughts are concentrated on
concrete, physical objects, and
his hands are busily engaged
fashioning these objects.
Wealth, affluence does not
necessarily spell happiness to
him. For wealth means leis-
ure, leisure means idleness,
idleness means the cessation
of creation, of fashioning con-
crete, tangible things, and be-
ginning to toy with fanciful,
intangible ideas. And the av-
erage, of course there are ex-
ceptions, man who spends the
major part of his wakeful
hours to construct or fashion
something with his hands, is
ont overly anxious to trouble
his mind with speculative
theories and abstract ideas.
It may, therefore, well be
that George is working hard,
and needlessly so, but who
can definitely say that ,he is
not gaining happiness
through his work.


Apparently the depths of
man's genius have already
been tapped. When we have
finally stopped gasping and
ah! ing over the latest ex-
tremely marvelous and incon-
ceivable invention, something
new and even more wonder-
ful and incredible 'appears,
and again, we're gushing and
exclaiming and rhapsodizing
The most recent one is not
a mechanical marvel, but
something that despite its
utter simplicity should and
does posses untold potential-
ities for the future. Imagine
being able to definitely de-
cide beforehand what gender
your offspring shall be .. .
male or female. And yet, such
is the case.
Professor Franz Unterber-
berg, Germany, has caused
a stir in the medical world
with his announcement that
parents will henceforth be
able to determine what their
offspring shall be boy or
girl. How? It is extremely
simple. A certain chemical
salt is employed to produce
the desired gender. Only a few
of the fifty odd cases experi-
mented upon proved failures.
Think of the inestimable hap-
piness the discovery will re-
sult in. Think of the numer-
ouA parents who have been
"dying for a girl" and have
had five boys in a row. Or, of
those parents who were bless-
ed with seven girls when they
would gladly have given their
most precious possessions for
a kaddishh.".
RUT on the other hand,
think of the considerable
fun this discovery precludes..
No longer wil mothers pre-
pare two complete layettes,
because "it'll probably be a
girl, but, then again, you nev-
er can tell; it might be a
boy." No more flush of pride
and happiness at the pleas-
ant discovery that the stork
delivered the correct order.
The element of chance will be

Miamian Guilty
of Tax Evasion

Morris C. Hodes, president
of Maryland Shirt shop, In-
corporated, was sentenced to
a year and a day in the federal
prison at Atlanta and fined
I300 yesterday when he
pleaded guilty in United
States District court to a
charge of income tax evasion.
Louis Joel, United States
assistant district attorney,
told the court that Hodes de-
frauded the government of
several thousand dollars by
making false income tax re-
turns.
Judge Halsted L. Ritter
suspended the sentence and
paroled Hodes to the United
States marshal and ordered
him to pay the fine at once.

Jewish Immigrants

LONDON-This week saw
the liberation of the last 30
immigrants held at the immi-

East Lee, near Southampton
since 1924. They were kept
prisoners because of the
change then in the American
Quota law and this week re-
ceived their American visas
permitting them to leave.
This closes the last chapter in
the, tragedy involving more"
than 1900 Jewish immigrants
who were detained in 1924
and partially released to be
sent to different parts of the
world.


Prominent Zionist Honor System to
Paid Last Honors Finance Church


Last week we carried a
brief announcement of the
death of Louis Topkis as hav-
ing happened Thursday, night
March 20th..The information
received by a brother indicat-
ed that death had occurred as
reported in these columns.
However, though Mr. Louis
Topkis was then at death's
door, actual death did not hap-
pen until Sunday evening,
March 23rd.


Wilmington,-Louis Topkis,
millionaire manufacturer of
this city, and prominent in
Jewish charities, died last
night in his home, 2302 Bay-
ard boulevard, here. He was
fifty-seven and had returned
from his Florida winter resi-
dence recently. He had been
ill for several weeks.
Mr. Topkis was born in
Odessa, Russia, coming to
this country with his parents
when he was nine. He came to
Wilmington in 1900 and start-
ed business selling small art-
icles from a suit case. Later
he formed the Delmyra Manu-
facturing Company which
later became the Topkis
Brothers Company. The firm
now has seventeen branches
in Delaware and Maryland.
Mr. Topkis was prominent
in the Zionist Organization of
America, in the Jewish Agen-
cy of the World, chairman of
the board of trustees of the
Adas Kodesch Synagogue,
here, and head of the Hebrew
Charity Association.
In Miami where Mr. Topkis
had made his winter home for
several years he was chair-
man of the building commit-
tee which erected the Beth
Jacob Synagogue of Miami
Beach, and had been either a
speaker or presiding officer
at nearly every Zionist winter
gathering held in Greater Mi-
ami in the past several years.
He is survived by his widow
the former Miss Esther M.
Krigstone; six children, Ab-,
raham, E. Victor, David L.,
Jacob H. and Mrs. J. Wolson,
of this city, nd Mrs. Nathan-
iel J. Gold an, of Philadel-
phia, and tree brothers and
a sister, David L. Topkis,
Harry Topkis and Mrs. James
N. Ginns.

The honor system has been
in operation two months. The
financial condition of the
church is reported ahead, of

period a year ago.

Coroner Is At

sitting "Shiva" in their homes
because of bereavement, did
not report when summoned
for jury duty. When the cor-
oner was advised of the rea-
son for their non-appearanCe
he demanded their immediate
presence in Court, saying
that the law was paramount
to religion. The Jewish Board
of Deputies took a hand in
the controversy and compell-
ed the Coroner to recede from
his stand.

THE JEWISH FLORIDIAN


GOLDENROD
Goldenrod is a beautiful flower and
Sa pestilent weed. It grows all over the
country and so comes as near as any
to being our national flower. Modem
tnedical science says it is not golden-
frod but ragweed which causes hay
fever. If Henry Ford's experimental
goldenrod farm in Georgia succeeds in
,commercializing Edison's discovery
that goldenrod contains rubber, we
;may see goldenrod farming becoming
as widespread as wheat farming is to-
day. That is not impossible, though
,hardly probable. Yet every crop the
,!farmer grows was once a weed and
'has been made into a crop by some-
t.ody's discovery that it is useful to
humanity.

BUILDING
Plans already developed for new
Buildings to be constructed in 1930
iall for an expenditure of nearly
double that of 1929.' And this does
not include private residences. States
and municipalities have raised more
funds by bond issues in the past three
months than in any similar period, and
the proceeds of those sales will be
used for new roads, public buildings
:nd other improvements. Everything
points to a greater volume of construc-
tion work und-r way in the near fu-
ture than we bave seen since the first
year or two following the war. And
that means employment for everybody,
money freely in circulation again, re-
newed prosperity for all sorts and con-
ditions of men

ARLINGTON
The great National Cemetery In
Virginia, cross the Potomac River
from kWhingtoa, where William
Howard Taft, President and Chief
Justice, was laid to rest, is one of the
most beautiful spots in America. It
was the estate of Robert Lee, and
was confiscated by the Federal Gov-
ernment when Lee threw in his lot
with the Confederacy. Only men who
have served their country in war may
be buried there.
From the Lincoln Memorial in
Washington the great new bridge over
the Potomac leads directly to this an-
cient home of the Lees, tying the mem-
ary of the two great Civil War leaders
together and riding the gap between
North and South with a final gesture
of reconciliation.
Arlington is to America what West-
minster Abbey s to England, the bur-
ial place and shrine of our devoted
dead. No one has truly seen America
who has not seen Arlington.

BRITISH
Thirty years ago, in 1900, the Boers
of South Africa gave up their unequal
war against the British. American
sympathy was complete with the
Boers In that conflict and against the
British. It looked to all of us like a
parallel to our own Revolution. We
expected reprisals and oppression of
the conquered on the part of the Brit-
ish, but on the contrary the new gov-
ernment set up n South Africa proved
to be far p9re liberal than the old one
which the Dutch Boers had operated.
The U. S. A.--meaning in this case
the Union of South Africa-is today
an independent nation, a member of
the British Commonwealth of Nations,
to be sure, but in every respect a self-
governing state. Dutch and British
participate on even terms in its gov-
ernment, as do the French and British
in Canada. General Smuts, greatest of
the Boer war leaders, has served .as
Prime Minister.
SThis object-lesson, proving that the
the tyrannical monster which it seemed
td be under George III, has done more
than anything else to establish the
friendly feeling toward Great Britain
which now prevails almost everywhc,.
in America.

TREES
When Admiral Byrd's returning e:-
plorers reached New Zealand, the
sight which stirred them most deeply
was trees. For nearly two years they
had tot seen a tree. It is difficult:
for most of us to imagine a world


"VERY LATEST"
By Mary Marshall
The tuck-in blouse no longer
looks like a flapperish affectation,
and instead of asking ourselves, as
we did six months ago: "Will the
tuck-in blouse be accepted?" we
ask: "How long before the over-
blouse will look out of date?"
Of course no one can answer
this question but certainly fewer
over-blouses and more tuck-in
blouses are sold at the present
tjme. There are blouses made to
be worn beneath the skirt band,
others that may be worn either
way and the tendency is to shorten
the overblouse so that it extends


only a few inches
mal waistline.


below the nor-


At the same timg there is a new
type of blouse, that hardly seems
like a blouse at all, because it is
even longer than dresses of twelve
months ago. This is the new over-
blouse and the first time you see
it-with the skirt appearing several
inches below the hem-you may be
inclined to think that it is really a
last season's frock with a skirt
worn beneath to give needed length
On second glance you will see, by
the cut of the sleeves and the
shoulders and by, the placing of
the belt, that it is really quite up-
to-date.

The Doctor Young Man,
you should never marry.
The Patient-Then you do
think my ailment is incur-
able ?
The Doctor-No. It's trif-
ling. But you never can be

without trees, though in Iceland a
hundred generations have Ived and
died without ever seeing one.
We are cutting down trees faster
than we are planting new ones. We
do not think of trees as a crop, but
as a natural resource to be mined
without replacement. The Federal
Farm Board's chairman lately made
a plea for the restoration of the
"woodlot" as an important part of
every farm. Trees as a crop do pay.
They take longer from seed to market
than any other irop, but every sound
tree adds its little to the value of any
farm, and with the inevitable reduc-
tion in acreage devoted to money crops
and pasturage there is no better use
to which surplus land can be put than
growing trees for the future. More-
over, many states now exempt refor-
ested land from taxation


WORRYING DOESN'T PAY
On his way back to a college reunion, one of my friends
stopped off in the little town where he had spent his boy-
hood.
"How is business?" he asked a local merchant.
"Awful bad," was the reply. "And what's more, I don't
like the outlook."
"Why not?"
"Well, there's elements in the situation that might de-
velop a lot of trouble. At least that's the way it looks tome."
My friend lighted a cigar, and leaned over the counter.
"George," said he familiarly, "those are almost exactly
the same words I used to hear from the storekeepers when I
was a kid here twenty-five years ago. I've been a subscriber
to the local paper ever since I left, and most of those old store-
keepers have died. I have taken special notice of the size of
their estates. How much money do you think they left? Be-
tween a hundred and two hundred thousand dollars each.
And here's the funny thing-every penry was made out of
business which were always bad and always on the verge of
getting ever so much worse."
I suppose that if gravestones told the real truth, nine out
of ten of them would bear a line to this effect: "This man's
life was shortened several years by the fear of bad develop-
ments, most of which never occurred."
Even very wise men, as their years have increased, have
suffered from the evil habit of fearing the worst. The Rev.
Dr. Cotton Mather, who died two hundred years ago in Boston
was the most eminent graduate of Harvard and virtually the
founder of Yale. He had courage and a wonderful mind.
Yet in his old age he viewed the future disconsolately.
He concluded that God had brought the Pilgrims across the
ocean to "a New England desert" for a very special purpose,
but that this purpose had obviously been accomplished and
that the whole colony would "soon come to naught."
The colony shows no sign of coming to naught, but there
are doubtless a million men in it today who are losing the fun
of their current success because of the dread that something
unfortunate may be about to happen.
"One-fourth of life is intelligible," said Mark Rutherford,
"the other three-fourths unintelligible darkness; and our ear-
liest duty is to cultivate the habit of not looking around the
corner."
Those of us who do not look are likely to get an unex-
pected bump occasionally, but how much faster we travel!
And what a lot more fun we have because of the imaginary
bumps that we miss!

ing in your sleep.

PASSOVER CUSTOMS
AND TRADITIONS


It may be that there are
some among us who know lit-
tle about ,Passover or its im-
portance to the Jews as a hol-
iday. To trace some of the
customs that still survive af-
ter all these centuries, such as
the eating of unleavened
bread, the gathering and
burning of crusts, which give
the final touch to the clean-
ing of the house, and the cele-
bration of the Seder, one must
take a little journey into Jew-
ish history as recorded in the
Bible.
When the Hebrews took
their flight from Egypt, their
preparations were necessarily
hurried. That the order to be-
gin their journey came all too
soon is shown by the fact that
the dough, which was set for
baking on the following day,
had only been mixed with
water, and in this first stage
became part of their burden
to be" carried along with the
rest of their worldly posses-
sions. This dough, baked by
the intense, scorching rays of
the sun (which travelers tell
us bakes the very sand of the
desert into a hardened sub-
stance resembling clay), be-
carhe the unleavened bread of
the Israelites, staying the
pangs of hunger and giving
them renewed strength for
their journey. That marvelous
Book of Exodus that tells of
Israel's wanderings in the de-
sert would that we could
read it with the ever-present
light of history to shine upon
and illumine its pages! If it
were written out fok us by
the finger of God that, in or-
der to fulfil the destiny of our
race, we must travel wild un-
trodden lands, cross angry
seas, and be subjected to
feuds of alien and unfriendly
peoples; on yoke. of comfort
reaching to us, no perception
of an earthly goal, nothing
but that strange, indescrib-
able fluttering of the heart
called hope, undying and im-
perishable; were all this to be
our portion, should not be
making history page upon
page, tragic, ennobling, preg-
nlant with' thought and mean-
ing for all time? Surely our
endurance under suffering,
our determination to over-
come all obstacles, our pray-
erful desire to fulfil God's
word and to reach at last the
land of His promise, wherein
we were to dwell under the
safety of His Law, would mer-


it the love and reverence of
our children and their child-
ren unto all generations. In-
asmuch as our pilgrimage
might subserve the highest
aims and ideals of humanity,
we would desire that poster-
ity should dwell upon it for
their own well-being, recall-
ing it joyfully each year as a
lesson of hope as well as of
trust in Him who guides na-
tions as though they were
children. Doubtless our ances-
tors, gazing down the long
vista of the centuries, saw Is-
rael blessed and blessing, re-
counting to coming genera-
tions the stQry of Exodus,
glorifying it by their willing-
ness to continue in the strug-
gle for humanity, evincing
their devotion by loving ad-
herence to the letter as well
as the spirit of the law of
Sinai.
The crusts,* placed in con-
spicuous places to be gathered
for burning, are a sign of
fealty to those gone before,
who have held close to the
commandments and made tra-
dition for us. It is a symbol
that the worK of purifying
the house from leaven has re-
ceived sanction through the
final grace and prayer of the
master of the house. A cus-
tom growing out of this, and
one appreciated by those who
receive the generous gift, is
that of bestowing all remain-
ing leaven-whatever it be in
quantity, great or small-up-
on Christian families in need.
To those who have lived
calmly and contentedly all
their years under the banner
of Judaism and the healthful
influence of its laws, it seems
the most natural thing in the
world to pay full measure of
tribute to a nation whose her-
oic struggle our imagination
alone can help us to under-
stand, and whose eventual
triumph the world agrees
with us in recognizing as the
keynote of all ubrequent civ-
ilization and prbgkeg. There-
fore, when we et unleavened
bread, and observe with cere-
mony the ,edr, it is not only
because itis commanded us in
the Bible but because of our
own desire to perpetuate the
memory of our ancestors; to
celebrate as nearly as possible
in detail the great events
which Passover commemo-
rates.
From beginning to end
these customs, though they
vary in different countries in
some slight respects, convey
the same meaning of distinct
law and purpose. In the main
it is history that is honored,
the history of a great event.
The traditions of a race are
being perpetuated, traditions
that reflect glory and honor
upon a nation. Intelligently
understood and observed, cus-
toms such as these bring into
the home atmosphere an ele-
ment of joyus activity, love
and veneration for the past,
present peace and content-
ment not to be attained by all
the intellectual striving of a


lifetime.
Notwithstanding all this, it
has become the fashion a-
mong many of our brethren
to decry customs which they
declare to be obsolete, more
to be honoredd in the breach,
than the observance." It is

When Father Drives the Car
When Father has a trip to do
To some outlying town,
He backs the bus out of her
pew-
Gives her a dressing down;
Then wheels her to a service
stand
And has her filled inside
With gas and oil and water
and
He's ready for his ride.
So Father lights his pipe and
starts
A smiling on his way;
Pays little heed to passing
carts,
Or to the time of day.
He views the gentle country-'
side,
Gets out to take a stretch
And chats awhile with Bill
McBride
About his peas and vetch.
He calls on Smith and brother
Brown,
And when with work he's
through,
He rolls serenely back to
town,
The car as good as new;
For Father never tries to
break
A record, fast nor far,
But just a moderate mileage
make,
When Father drives the car.

Being Myself

With Gladys I am literary.
I'm never quite at ease with
Phil.
I'm musical with Ruth and
Mary-
But I am justmyself with
Lil.
When Jennie calls, I am the
mother,
And talk of spinach with a
will,
Then feel relieved, somehow
or other,
That I can be myself with
Lil.
When Sue drops in, it's song
and laughter,
And joyous conversation-
still,
It's good to sit rejoicing after
That I can be myself with
Lil.

I talk of verse to Marguerita.
Of love to Tom, of art to
Bill.
And find that life holds noth-
ing sweeter
Than being just myself
with Lil!

The Stevens in Chicago was
filled to overflowing. Rooms
were at a premium. The occa-
sion was the football game be-
tween Notre Dame and South-
ern California Universities.
Notre Dame won and her co-
horts were celebrating-well
but not too wisely. Charlie
and Jack, two Sophomores,
had engaged a room together.
In the atmosphere: of good fel-
lowship, Charlie offered a
part of the bed to Bill who
was without a berth. It was


long past midnight when
Jack toddled in, managed to
undress and crawl into bed.
Though somewhat dazed, he
felt that things were not as
they should be. Waking up


Charlie, he asked, "Hey Shar-
lie, how many of ush ish in
this bed?" Charlie, thick in
sleep and his charitable act
forgotten, answered, "Jush
ush two go t' shleep, y'
fool." Jack tried to sleep, but
the thought that something
was wrong somewhere still
troubled him. Crawling out of
bed, he counted the feet,
crawled back and again shook
Charlie awake. "Ish all right,
Sharlie," he gurgled. "There-
'sh only four feet-ish all, ol'
man."
Meditation.
If we could only dwell upon
the heights,
Unmindful of the little
things that stir
Our hearts, and cloud our way
with fears,
When only petty grievances
occur!


If we could only quell these
useless doubts
And fantasies that need-
lessly are spun!
For they but keep us walking
in the mists,
That dim the glory of the
dawning sun.

Passover Customs
and Traditions

ful activity. They typify the
soul andlsentiment that serve
to unite and weld all men in
a common brotherhood, and
these broadly human elements
in all religions lighten the
way of men in a world of hard
dry fact, a disunion of intel-
lectual ideas, of overmuch
material striving. If Passover
has no meaning for Jews, if
the great events which led to
the writing of the Decalogue
do not appeal to a race of men
whose ancestry for unwrit-
ten generations has aimed to
carry its message of peace and
humanity to all the world,
then no other great human
event, no historical achieve-
ment, can ever hope to quick-
en its pulse or disturb its
serene egotism. If the exodus
from Egypt and the uprear-
ing of a nation whose history
has made and colored all sub-
sequent history have no mean-
ing for the descendants of Is-
rael, neither can the struggle
for and the declaration of
American Independence be ex-
pected to find response or
lodging in their breasts.
In the dry verbiage of such
an Israel (Heaven forefend
that even its shadow be cast
upon our world!) there will
hardly be room for such terms
as Love and Freedom, Patriot-
ism and Religion.

bers and officers of Con-
gregation Beth David.
And Whereas, during
his lifetime the said P.
M. Rosengarten has en-
deared himself to all by his
kindly acts of benevolence
and deep interest in the
welfare of his fellow men
and particularly Congre-
gation Beth David and its
Talmud Torah.
Be it therefore resolved
that the members and of-
ficers o f Congregation
Beth David through its
Board of Trustees does
hereby express its keen
regret and heartfelt con-
dolence to the family of
the bereaved upon their
irreparable loss.

A WORD TO THE WISE
It was during last summer that a fine little mother told
me she might need my services along about Thanksgiving.
Such things happen, you know, else this old world would be
a mighty lonesome place, now wouldn't it? The point I am
making is, the engaging of a physician so far ahead of the
expected need.
I promised the service. My first step, however, was to
request her to come to my office at her convenience, that I
might look into her health condition closely; one should be
fully advised, when he is called to look after the matter of
two lives..... .I found her in excellent condition.
I had her come in every four weest; then as the
time approached, every ten days. Imagine myS rprise and
apprehension when, two weeks before the expected event, I
found-ten percent of albumin in my usual test-ma.ng!
Here was a dilemma-all of which I kept to yself-in
which I acted quickly-intelligently; I put her at once on an
appropriate diet, and required daily sweet-baths to remove
a dropsical condition that developed rapidly. Under the very
best of care, we came out of it with a fine little girl, and the
mother in good condition. Both are now fine and well.
But, suppose this patient had waited to call her physician
until the hour for delivery was at hand; I would have been
totally ignorant of the kidney-condition, with no time for
making intelligent tests; I might have had convulsions to
deal with, possibly severe hemorrhages, uraemic poison,
maybe death for the mother-possibly the child too. Being
fully advised however, we came through happily for all con-
cerned.
The moral is: There is no graver mistake, than waiting
right up to the hour to call the doctor-in cases like this,
where the physician does not know you thoroughly.
