Considerable groundwork is being done in advance of the election cam-
paign of deputies to the Polish Sejm. Jewish parties are consolidating
their forces, and in a number of cases fusions have already taken place.
Three groups especially have united in forming one ballot: the Zionists, the
Loire Zion and the "People's party." This particular bloc is confident by
avoiding a loss of Jewish votes to elect at least six deputies out of a total

there, a hit of late afternoon light fil-
tered. Yellow oranges, golden apples,
red-checked pears, all hung from the
roof; from the corners grinned jack-
o'-lanterns. A small table stood there
holding a dish of fruit, a glass of late
autumn flowers, and a prayer book.
Sarah's old grandfather, his gray
head upon his hand, sat there quietly
reading a spreading book of yellowed
pages. All was quiet and serene.
"Oh!" said the teacher again.
"We've stepped into an Israel paint-
ing!" Then with a smile she put her
hand into grandfather's, upon Sarah's
introduction, and almost forgot to
take it away again. And in a few
moments, after mother and little Dav-
id had come, and the fruit had been
passed, and little sugar cakes, they
all quite forgot that Miss Hamilton
was a stranger. Then she listened to
grandfather's telling of Succoth as
it had been kept in ancient days, of
Talmud tales and legends; and all
that he forgot, mother filled in, of cus-
tom and ceremony. Then, before they
knew it, dark had fallen, and the can-
dles were lit, and the short evening
prayers were said. So, of course, the
guest had to stay for supper in the
sukkah, and the stars were peeping
through the clouds when she finally
left, reluctantly. She looked almost
wistfully into grandfather's gray
eyes as she said good night, and said,
softly, to mother, "I feel a real sense
of Jewish peace in my Scotch Presby-
terial soul tonight!" And mother in-
sisted that she must come often, even
when there was no longer a sukkah to
tempt, while Miss Hamilton said she'd
be glad to come, indeed.
It must have been fate that made
