BEARD AND FACE
Zorach and Shmerel were al-
ways quarreling. One day they
met in the village barber shop.
Said Zorach: "I had a beard
like yours once, but when I
realized how it looked, I cut it
off."
Shmerel replied: "I had a face
like yours but when I realized
I couldn't cut it off, I raised a
beard to cover it."

MUSICIAN'S MODESTY
The Milwaukee Journal relates
the following story:
Jascha Heifetz and Mischa El-
man. the violinists, were dining
together one evening. In the
middle of the meal, the waiter
placed a note on the table ad-
dressed: "To the world's great-
est violinist." Both musicians
glanced at it.
"This is for you, Mischa," said
Heifetz modestly—certain that
it was not.
"Oh, no, Jascha," protested El-
man, just as modestly. "It's for
you."
"Oh. but I insist, Mischa," said
Heifetz.
"No, no, Jascha, it's yours."
They asked the waiter to read
the note to them. He opened it.
"Dear Fritz," it began.

PRAYER OF THIRD REICH
After spending his first six
months in a concentration camp
unconverted to Nazism, one man
wrote the "Prayer of the Third
Reich" and was promptly sent-
enced to another six months. He
wrote:
Dear God, make me blind
That I may Goebbels Aryan find .
Dear God, make me deaf,
That I may believe what Goering
saith.
Dear God, make me dumb.
Lest the Brown Shirts for me come.
For i/ deaf. dumb and blind I be.
Fuelirer Hitler will love me. -

TRAINING A "CHNORRER"
--- A wealthy merchant is walk-
ing slowly along a quiet portion
of a city street when two
"schnorrers" intercept him. Af-
ter a few moments one of them
stands aside while the other
pleads: "Could you spare a little
something so my friend could
get a bite to eat?"
The merchant asks somewhat
interestedly: "Why doesn't he
speak for himself?"
"I'm afraid he does not know
how—I am breaking him in."

A BLACKOUT FORMULA
Now that we are all facing
frequent blackoutS, it is well to
recall the fact that in England,
during the early days of the war,
our correligionists, who indulged
in card games, transliterated the
Bublical "Vayehi Erev, Vavehi
Boker," to read: "Vayehi Erev,
Vayehi Poker."
