Stories for
Our Boys
and Girls
Hello Boys and Girls:
,Our story this week was “made-
to-order" for Lenore Robovein,
■ge eight and a half, of Webb
Avenue in Detroit, Mich. Her story
"ingredients" are: A box of matzo,
n rabbi and his synagogue, a boy
and girl, a cantor, a mother and
father. Those are quite a lot of
things to put into one story, but
I think they’ll all make it.

The Magic Matzo
It was a lovely house, all clean
and freshly painted, on a pleasant
street. And the neighbors were the
nicest people! The very day the
Weiss family moved in Mrs. Smith
from next door brought in a plate
of cookies. The Porter children,
across the street, offered to take
Susan and Sheldon to school. And
Mr. Brennan, down the block, in
vited father to share the ride go
ing downtown to work.
Since the Weiss’s had just come
to share the ride going downtown
to work.
Since the Weiss's had just come
were very pleased with their
neighbors’ welcome. That first
evening as they sat at supper,
mother said "We certainly found
a happy place to live."
“Yes, we did,” echoed the
children.
"Any Jewish families?” asked
father. And when mother shook
her head he said "That’s too bad.
I was hoping someone near us
would be able to take us to syna
gogue and show us where the
Hebrew school is located.”
"We can always find them in
the telephone directory," mother
suggested.
Next day, Mrs. Smith knocked
on the kitchen door. “I’m going
shopping,” she called. "Want to
come along?” Of course, mother
did.
In the market, mother and Mrs.
Smith pushed their carts along the

aisles and selected their groceries.
Suddenly, mother looked into Mrs.
Smith’s basket, and got the sur
prise of her life. There, right in
the middle of the spaghetti and
soup and celery and cereal was—
a box of matzo!
Where did you get that?”
mother exclaimed, pointing to the
matzo.
Right there on the back shelf.
Its one of the most delicious
crackers we’ve ever tasted," an
swered Mrs. Smith.
Mother laughed. “That’s matzo,
our unleavened bread, that we eat
on Passover. I wonder how it hap
pens to be stocked in this market.”
A man standing nearby heard
her. He was the store manager.
"Lots of people in this area like
matzo as a delicacy all year | |j
’round," he explained. “Of course j _
we carry the Kosher-for-Passover
boxes at holiday time, as well as *
many other Passover foods. In j ®
fact, we supply the food for the j ■
Model Seder that the Second Ave- j ■
nue Temple has every year.” J jj
In amazement mother asked “Is I ^
that temple near here?”
“Just a few blocks to your left, :
as you leave the store,’ the man- **_ ■
ager said. ——

synagogue," mother said, i ★
"I could have told you where it *
was. Why didn’t you ask me?" J
Mrs. Smith said. We often go there *
for neighborhood meetings, or j ★
special programs. It’s a beautiful! J
building and I know you’ll like i *
the people there.”
That evening, mother reported
her news to the family. “This cer
tainly is a wonderful neighbor
hood," father repeated.
When Friday night came, the
whole family was dressed in its
Sabbath best. They found their
way to the temple without any
difficulty. As they entered the
house of worship, the congregation
was assembling. Soon the rabbi
and cantor, dressed in their long
robes, came onto the Bimah and
the serivee began. It was all so
familiar to the Weiss’s that they
almost forgot they were in •
strange new town.
After the service was over,)
many people came up to meet j
the newcomers, to make them I
welcome. “My,” said father, I’m ^
glad we found this synagogue.” ^
“Yes," mother agreed. “And we ^
can thank that box of matzo for j |
it—that magic box of matzo.”
