All Out for War at Victory CHILDREN'S
CORNER
Fete to Tune of $1,500,000
Million Dollar Banquet Tops All Hopes As Members Rally
to Country's Aid; Achievement Praised by Com-
munity Leaders; Fishman Leads in Sales
Under the chairmanship of • Irving W. Blumberg,
Knollwood Country Club broke all known records for the
entire country with the announcement at the War Bond
Victory Banquet Wednesday _evening, at the Book-Cadillac
Hotel, that members of the club had bought or sold $1,-
500,000 worth of Bonds.
Having set a quota of $1,000,-
000 for this novel drive, the over-
subscription of the goal by 50
per cent set a precedent for
clubs everywhere to emulate. As
a result of its achievement,
Knollwood Club stands out as a
shining example of what can be
accomplished when all resources
are thrown into the war effort.

A Story About Cows and Horns
"Here is a difficult problem,"
said the rabbi to his class of
boys. "Not long ago some men
were digging in the sands near
the pyramids in Egypt and they
found some cow's horns. You all
know the story about the seven
lean cows and the seven fat ones.
The question is this: whose horns
were these—the horns of the fat
cows or those of the lean ones?"
After a moment of silence an-
swers were shouted from all parts
of the room. Some of the boys
vigorously incited that the horns
have belonged to the fat cattle,
which were eaten by the lean
ones; while others declared that
the horns must have belonged to
the lean cows. Then Shmerel, the
rabbi's favorite, spoke up in a
superior tone.
"The horns could not have be-
longed to any of those cows," he
said, "because there wern't any
cows—it was all a dream."
"Correct," said the rabbi
proudly.
