Jewish Ilumor

(Weekly Column of Jewish Humor
ous Stories, Anecdotes •nd Jokes.)

By Leo M. Glassman.

(Editor's Note:—The Jew excels
perhaps all other people in his sense
of humor. Unfortunately in this
country little is known on this sub-
ject, the popular conception being
based on the vulgarisms of the
"Jew comedian" of the vaudeville
stage. But those who are familiar
with the Midrashic writings and
the folk lore of the Jewries in Eu-
rope are aware that here is a
wealth of material which demon-
strates the true quality fo Jewish
humor. In fact, ranging all the
way from numerous observations
in the Bible down to the once-
' dotes and stories of the East Eu-
ropean Ghetto we find a form of
humor which is versatile, rich and
typically Jewish, portraying the
Jewish manner of thinking and the
Jews' reactions to life. Jewish
humor, as rule, is subtle; it em-
braces all shades of satire, irony
and buffoonery; sometimes it is
deep and cutting, sometimes light
and overflowing with sheer fun.
But it always has a Jewish twist
to it. In this column, to be con-
ducted weekly, will be presented
Jewish humorous stories, anec-
dotes and jokes that have become
popular among the Jews in Eu-
rope. Humorous stories born in
America which are descriptive of
Jewish psychology or otherwise
peculiarly Jewish will be included.)
