New York’s Police Commissioner, drover Whalen, who was drafted by the city from John Wanamnker’s, where he received a salary of $100,000 a year, was born on the East Ride and as a boy earned pocket money by light ing tires for pious Jews on the Sab bath. He is said to have enjoyed quite a flourishing patronage at a compen sation of one cent per tire. Louis Marshall had a weakness for cross-word puzzles. Stephen Wise’s big, sombrero-like chapeau, which he has been wearing since his return from abroad, is a bar gain. Dr. Wise says so himself. “I bought it in Europe for $7,00.” WHY SO EXCITED? Walter Winchell tells the story of two Jews at New York’s mammoth Grand Central Station. One of them was pacing the platform very excited ly. “What is the matter?” asked the second. “Why are you so excited?” “I missed my train,” replied the first. “And by how much did you miss it?” ”1 missed it by a minute,” came back the reply. “My God,” said’the second. “To see your excitement one would judge that you had missed it by an hour!” A HOT WINTER’S TALE They are telling this one about one of the swanky apartment houses recently erected by Benjamin Winter. One day Winter passed one of his edifices and, accosting the liveried man in front, asked whether there were any apartments to be had in the struc ture. “No, we’re all filled up,” was the reply. “Do you expect to have any in the near future?” continued Winter. “No,” was the brief retort. “That’s rather unusual,” said Win ter. “Just completed, and already all illed!” “Well, we’re filled. That’s all.” “Well, that doesn’t happen to be all in this case. I happen to own this building. I am Mr. Winter.” The man began to stammer apolo gies. He had been told by the super intendent, he said, that they did not want any Jewish tenants. “Hereafter,” said Winter as he left, “You need take no note of ‘religion, *aee of previous condition of servitude.’ If the people are of good character, that’s enough.” (Continued on Page 61) ■ ■ ■ The Southern Cotton Oil Co.
