The Turning Point

Wishing All My Jewish Friends a Very
Joyous Holiday

A Short Story.

20 standing under the wedding
canopy with his young bride. Im-
mensely pleased and dazed that
such good fortune had befallen
him, he followed the rabbi's in-
structions. Only when he crushed
the glass under his foot was he
sure of himself, that was the only
moment he had ever felt himself
a man in his wife's presence. She
had a way of making him feel in-
significant. He had looked at her
standing beside him and he felt
proud, proud that Fanny, the
b eautiful ' y, hod consented to
be his. How beautiful she was
with her golden hair in tight glist-
ening ringlets, freshly moistened.

"Where are you going, Meyer?
The man paused in the doorway.
This simple question could not be
answered so easily. Ile realized
that it was momentous, one of the
milestones in their lives, his life
and the life of his beautiful wife.
They say that when a man is
ATTORNEY AND COUNSELOR-AT-LAW
drowning all the events of his life
pass before his mind's eye. In that
moment as Meyer stood in the
4725 FOURTEENTH AVENUE
doorway, his hand on the knob, the
events
of the past 20 years, the

milestones in the past 20 years of her city-bred family, her lips

would ever think she was 38. Her
hair still glistened in damp ring-

lips laughed happily and in repose
they were parted softly.

Ile had taken his young bride to
his home, the house he had bought
when he first met the buxom
Fanny Moskowitz.
Fanny had thrilled at the house.
All day long she puttered about,
hanging curtains, setting plants to
bloom. Was not her house the
handsomest on the street? Meyer's
heart swelled. In those days he
did not notice that Fanny insisted
on the house being in her name.
In response to Fanny's pert plead-
ing, Meyer surrounded her with
every luxury, everything she could
wish for-plush was in style, he
furnished the parlor in plush; he'
bought her diamonds, more dia-
monds than any of her friends.
She was the first woman in town
to have a fur coat. That was in

THE HONOR ROLL OF AMERICAN
JEWRY IN 5691

(Continued from Preceding Page.)

,

The statistical record of the
year would not be complete with-
out a necrology. Many prominent
men and women were lost to
American Jewry in 5691. This
roster of the year's important Jew-
ish deaths lists 94 persons, four of
them women. The best known
American Jews who died in the
last year were Nathan Straus, blur
tinier Schiff and Dr. Lee K. Fran
bet. The average age of these 94
noted Jews at the time of their
death was 62. Twenty-six died in
their '708, 25 in their '60s, 18 in
their '50s, 14 in their '40s, seven
in their '80s, two in their '30, and
one in his '90s. The ripest year
were attained by Otto Means of
Denver, who was 91, while the
youngest to (lie was Louis Tish-
man, New York realtor.
A recapitulation of those who
died showed that American Jewry
lost 19 prominent philanthropists,
14 political leaders and jurists, 11
merchants and business men, eight
journalists and writers, eight
emmunal workers, six actors and
theatrical producers, five music-
ians, four labor leaders, four Zion-
ists, four professional men, four I
prominent women, three rabbis,
two bankers, one physician and
one educator.
The following is a complete list
of the more important American

years later. Meyer had come
home late and shouted as he ran
excitedly into the house They

Take the question of first-cost-and you learn that the Chevrolet Six is one of the

lowest priced trucks you can buy.

Look into the matter of econotny--and you discover that many leading fleet owners

report the Chevrolet Six to be more economical to operate than any truck they

have ever used, regardless of the number of cylinders.

Investigate stamina, reliability and upkeep cost-and you find that Chevrolet

owners frequently report such records as "20,000 miles without ope g the

expense for repairs."

As for speed and power, Chevrolet gives you a six-cylinder 50-horsepower engine-

very fast, very flexible, and 25% more powerful than the engine of any other truck

in the lowest price field.

And when y ou consider capacity, y011 find that Chevrolet's longer wheelbase, long

sturdy frame, and 4 long semi-elliptic springs permit the mounting of extra-large

bodies. These bodies are Chevrolet-built, stoutly reinforced and exceptionally

ness need.

Obviously, here is a line of trucks that deserves your attention, whether you plan

to buy a fleet or a single unit. Before you buy a truck for any purpose, get all the

facts about Chevrolet's complete line of six-cylinder haulage units. Your Chevrolet

dealer will supply you with full information.

could not contain himself with

pride and joy,
" Fanny, Fanny, I'm home," he
shouted up the stairs. Following
his voice he made his way to their
room. The door was locked.
"Fanny, what's the matter?
Open the door, Fanny."
The key turned and he went in.
Fanny stood in the center of
the room, dressed in her suit. On
the floor beside the bed was a suit-
case open and partly filled with
underwear. There was more on
the bed and dresses hung limply
over the chairs.
"Are you going away, Fanny?"
"Yes, Meyer, I think I'll go
away."
"Will you go to Lakewood or to
Saratoga, Fanny? Where do you
want to go?"
"No, I wouldn't go there. I'm
going away alone, I tell you."
"That's all right, Fanny. I
wouldn't be able to get away now.
But you could go, Fanny."
"Meyer, I'm going away, I tell
you. Not to Lakewood for a rest.
I'm going away from you!"
"Away from me? Sure. You
must be all tired out, Fanny, after
the holidays."
"Meyer!" In her attempt to
penetrate his lack of comprehen-
sion, Fanny screamed. "I'm go-
ing to leave you, I say, leave you,
leave you, can't you understand?"
"Leave me? Fanny, what are
you talking about? Ain't you got
everything you want?"
In his anxiety, Meyer failed to
see the calculating gleam in
Fanny's eye. Behind the look lay
10 years of planning, 10 years of
acquisition. Diamonds. Real es-
tate, Bonds. All in her name.
Yet Meyer gazes on her with
pride. Never had he gotten over
the feeling that Fanny, beautiful
Fanny, had conferred the great-
est favor on him in marrying him.
He sobbed. He pleaded. Ile
begged. In the end he succeeded
in persuading Fanny to stay.
But what a changed Fanny. A
silent Fanny moving about the
house, neglecting meals, greeting
Meyer with a sullen, silent look.
Not answering his questions. Ig-
noring his remarks when others
were present. It was as if he no
longer existed.
Days without number when they
met only at the supper table.
"Was there any mail today,
Fanny?"
"No."
"Did the coal come today,
Fanny?"
"Yes."
"I think I ought to order a bag
of these potatoes. You can put
them away in the cellar over the
winter,"
"Yea."
"Do you want to go to the
movies, Fanny?"
"No."
"All right, Fanny."
Ten years of this. Ten years.
Three thousand days. She always
refused to go out with him. If she
had no errand to attend to she
went quickly to her room-her
room.
Now he saw what it meant. As
if a veil had been lifted from his
eyes. All the years he had been
nothing to Fanny. Only the means
to Fanny's ends. Ilaving acquired,
wealth, she had no further use for
him. For her he no longer existed.
Meyer crumpled the newspaner
clipping in his pocket, the clipping
he had been carrying around all
day. At 40, it said, a man knows
whether he has been a failure or
not. Forty is the turning point.
Then he must decide whether or
not he will go on in the manner in
which he has been living.
As this passed in Meyer's mind
in the pause before he answered
his wife's question. Then he
opened the door, stood a moment
gazing for the last time at all he
had built up, at the woman he had
worshipped.
"I'm going for a walk, Fanny.
A long walk," he said, and gently
closed the door behind him.

That's Personal.

Mrs. Goldman was so nervous
one evening when her husband
failed to appear for dinner on time
that she picked up her telephone
and demanded:
"My husband, please!"
"What number do you want?"
asked the telephone operator,
"The third," answered Mrs.
Goldman in surprise, "but what
business is that of yours?"

There is no fool like a learned
