as one of the ablest members of the
bench in the state of Pennsylvania

set by the late Mayor Sulzberger,
whom he succeeded in public office.
For three years he was president
of the Federation of Jewish Charities
of Philadelphia. This gave him an in
sight into the life of a large Jewish
community. His addresses delivered at
some of the functions of the Federa

functions in scores of communities

only to serve. Wherever anyone else
can do as well, he prefers that the
other fellow do it. Indeed, he does
all that he can to encourage the other
fellow to do it.
Judge Stern is not a man of wealth

is still a young man. just past his
fifty-first birthday.
That the president and the chair
man of the Executive Committee of
the American Jewish Committee
should both be of Philadelphia • is in
itself an interesting coincidence. Per
haps it is more than a mere coinci
dence. But then as they say. this is
another story.

My Dear Children:—
I know' this week will bring you much happiness—Thanksgiving time ,
indeed a joyous holiday. Probably those of you who are Boy or Girl Scout!
or Camp Fire Girls will be going on hikes—cooking delicious meals in the
woods. Oh, I have gone on many such hike, and what if the wienies are a bit
burned and the potatoes all sooty? It tastes far better than cranberry Mact
and turkey, doesn’t it? Others of you will probably be seeing football game!
or just have a lovely day w'ith your family and friends.
But, children, whatever you’re doing on Thursday, do take “time out.” a,
we say in our games, for just a few minutes while you make the name
"Thanksgiving” mean something by being truly grateful for all the wonderful
things that are ours.
The State Contest is going along beautifully—some of the replies are f; Ct

My love to you all, SISTER MIRIAM
Here is a dear little letter from one of our younger readers. Don’t you
think Beatrice writes nicely?
Dear Sister Miriam:—
I like the new page just fine. I tried to work the puzzles but they are tot
hard for me. Mother says that perhaps you’ll have a special ore that’s easier
if I ask you to. Will you. please, because I’d surely like to be on the magiciari
list.
And please have a story with Adventure in it. I like that kind.
I am in the fifth grade and like everything w’e study except geography.
Did you like geography?
Fondly your little friend,
BEATRICE SCHILLER, Age 10.
Beatrice, you shall have an easier puzzle very soon—and I do like geog
raphy! Its really fun.
Now just one more letter—from one of my boys.
Dear Sister Miriam: —
I don’t like poetry, but I do like stories and puzzles. 1 liked “A Lore
Game” but I wish it had been about football instead of tennis. I have never
played tennis but I think I’ll try next summer. We play most everything el*
though. I am a forward on our school class basketball team. I hope to make the
varsity next year, or anyway when I get to Junior High.
If I write a basketball story, could you use it?
Sincerely. MARY IS GOLDSTEIS
Yes, Marvin. I certainly could use a basketball story! Let’s have it soon.
Of course we must have poetry. These verses are from a very little g.r
"THANKSGIVING"
The Pilgrims had to be so brave
In the days gone by,
For their Thanksgiving turkeys
Very hard they had to try.
All around were Indians
With arrows swift and keen.
Ready to shoot the Pilgrims,
Who in the woods were seen.
I am glad I live today
In a time so safe and sane.
And turkeys taste just twice as good
Because thev’re all so tame.
