Dear Boys and Girls, Here we are, on the edge of a Hap- py New Year! I hope it will be a very happy and pleasant one for all you, beginning with the very first evening before its very first day. Let's think of all the nice things that are going to happen this Rosh Ilashona. (That is the Hebrew name for the holiday at the beginning of the year.) First of all, at supper on the evening before New Year's day, there will be one or two jolly things. After your father has recited the Kidilush, he will give you a piece of bread. But it won't be ordinary bread. There will be honey on it, this time, to make the New Year sweet! Also, there will lie a new kind or fruit, one that you have not yet tasted this season, so that you can recite the blessing for all New Things over it. (Perhaps it will be a pomegranate,—one of those wonderful fruits with a leath- ery skin full of sweet, pink juice and jelly-covered seeds. You read about pomegranates in The Arabian Nights' Entertainments." This fruit is especially nice to have on Rosh Ha-Shonah, because it grows in Palestine.) Then in the morning, when you put on your new clothes and go to Syna- gogue, you will hear the Shofar, the trumpet made out of a ruin's horn, blown three times. That is a sign to all Jews that the New Year has be- gun. And after the service, your mother will give you honey-cake (which is dark brown, with almonds in it!) and then you will have the whole day, or even two days—if your father believes in keeping Rosh Hash- ona for two days—to play, and read, and think in. What will you think about? The be- ginning of the new year is happy. Your father and mother always try to make it no Will the rest of the new year be as successful and happy? That It's up to you to make it so. is something to think about. Think hard, and then when the holiday is over, write an essay for the Happy New Year Competition and send it to your friend, JUDITH ISII-KISIIOR. "HAPPY NEW YEAR" CONTEST Write an essay on this subject: "What I want the New Year to Bring." The best essay will be printed in "The Sabbath Angel" for everybody to read. Send in your essays by October 14, and make them as nice as you can! Blessing for Rosh Hashons (And all new things) Blessed art thou, 0 God our King, The Lord of life and everything, Who kept and brought us all the way Alive and strong until today. (From "Around the Year in Rhymes," by Jessie Sampter. Bloch Publishing Cu) CHARLIE'S DISCOVERY By Samuel Roth. When Charlie came home front school, his mother was in the midst of the preparations before Rosh Hashona. Charlie knew there was still a good hour before it would be time for him to change into his hal-- day clothes, so he flung his hooks in- to a corner and took a stroll up toe block. Near the candy store Micky met him. NI icky seemed excited about something. "Say, Charlie," he shouted, slap- ping him on toe shoulder. "I lust came from Mangoi Street. The boys spotted a pushcart of peaches. Want to come and see the fun'" "Sure," said Charlie, "Come along." There was a crowd of youngsters around the pushcart when Charlie and Mickie came up. Most Of the crowd, like Micky, were not Jews; and most of them, like Mick, were not friendly to peddlers. At any rate not to the Jewish peddlers. Charlie stood aside and watched how the ped- dler tried very hard to cover his cart in the usual manner before going home, and how, occasionally, one of the boys who was standing aside and making fun of hint, sneaked up be- hind him and snatched a peach out of the cart. glades thought he saw tears in the eyes of the peddler and he said to himself: "If I were a grown-up man, I wouldn't he a peddler; but if I were a peddler, I wouldn't let the boys tease me that way." And Charlie turned away with disdain and walked off by himself. When he reached home, his mother was waiting to help him into his new clothes. His father had long since gone to Schule (synagogue.) The preparations fo the family did not take long. Charlie's mother, Charlie, and little Leah arrived at the Schule just in time for the opening of the service. Charlie's mother and Leah went upstairs among the women. So Charlie, a prayer-book in his hand, pushed his way through the congre- gation in search of his father. The Schule was crowded, and Char- lie found the search rather difficult, for many of the worshippers had their talesim (praying shawls) over their heads, so that the forehead was quite hidden. He peered from one face into the other and suddenly stopped short. His eyes rested on the reading desk, and on the tall figure of the leader of the congregation that swayed before it. Charlie didn't see the face of the reader, but something in the rising and falling of his hands, in the great moving of his body, brought Charlie to a sudden stop. Charlie stood fascinated. As in a dream, he imagined that the leader was not merely leading the prayers of the congregation; behind the tall yellow lights of the reading desk stood the Great Judgment Seat of which Charlie had heard so much, and before it, this nian seemed to be asking God for justice. Fur a long time Partin watched the figure at the reading desk and listened to the deep, thrilling valet. Charlie decided in his heart that the man at the reading desk must be one of those holy men from Palestine about whom he heard at Hebrew School. Ile looked as though he might be a great pn phet. As the opening prayer came to a close, Charlie drew nearer and nearer to' the Reader, for he discovered his father only a little distani• away from him. As he approached slowly, the man at the reading desk suddenly turned his face from the Eastern Wall, and turned towards the congre- gation. And Charlie paused amazed. Ile couldy hardly believe his eyes. It was the face of the peddler! Charlie drew back. For several minutes he could not even think, so stocking was the dis- covery. Again and again he peered into the face of the reader, but there was no mistake about it. It was the sante man from whom he hail turned aside so proudly only a few hours be- fore. Charlie remained at his fathr's side throughout the rest of the pray- ers. There was deep shame in his heart, and even Leah could nut get a smile out of him that evening. Before he fell asleep that night, Charlie decided that in future he would not make up his mind about any Jew, or judge him, until he had seen him in Schule at the services for Rush Ilashona and Yom Kippur. RIDDLE BOX 5. The car is in a rut; how can we go on? I promised last week to help Vera Finkelstein, who does not go to Sab- bath School, and to give her a few hints for solving our puzzles. But I ant trying to work out a better plan than that, and I need a little more time to think it over. Will you wait until next week, Vera?—I just want you to know that I am thinking of you. The Answer to the Portmanteau Puzzle. Did any of you find out what names were packed in the Portmanteau': Let's see. 1. A son of Jacob and the first man. We have to find the son of Jacob whose name tits together with the name of the first nian. Now who was the first man?—Adam. Right. And when you go through the names of the sons of Jacob, from Reuben ,down to Benjamin, you find that the only one that fits into Adam, is Gad. To- gether they make the portmanteau name, "Gadam." See? 2. A prophet in the time of Saul, and a prophet who went to heaven without (lying. The great prophet in Saul's time was Samuel. And the prophet who went to Heaven without Together they dying, was Elijah. make "Samuelijah." Right first time! Now since that was a hard puzzle, I'm going to give you an easy acres- tic, for Miriam Tamar Malakoff, and other boys and girls like her who are not advanced enough yet for the harder riddles. I think you other boys and girls will find this quite easy. 1. The man in the Ark. 2. The Father of Isaac. 3. The book of the Law. 4. The Sian whom Queen Esther de- feated. 6. The beat which escaped the flood. Time to give you the answer to the "Mixed-Up Bible Names!"
