His service to the synagogue will be the focus of a public reception tendered him by Ahavath Achim members and friends in the community on Sunday, April 24. This tribute comes unsolicited from a fellow professional cantor in Atlanta.

BATTER WHIPPED Sunbeam bread BAKED WITH PURE VEGETABLE SHORTENING BY ATLANTA BAKING COMPANY ing to Atlanta Jewry for the past 26 years, has a background known only to a very few, not only professionally, but also his vast undertakings behind the scenes, in the privacy of his own mind and heart. One of the greatest highlights I came upon in his dedicated life of service was something that shook me into recognizing the stature of this messenger of G-d. A few years after Cantor Schwartzman came to this coun try and was serving Congregation B’nai Yitzchok in New York, the famous Cantor—Aryeh Leib Rut- man left the Hunts Point Jewish Center of the Bronx. The Cantor that was engaged to fill this va cancy of such a giant of Chaz- zanuth was none other than Jos eph Schwartzman. To best portray this enormous acknowledgement of the compe tence of a “Sheliach Tzibur” (a deputy of the people), I’d like to quote the words of Rabbi Max Felshin, which the Rabbi deliver ed in honor of Rutman; “In Odes sa, as a young man, when you sang, Rasumne, Minkowsky, Sir ota and Maisels, the greatest Can tors of all times, stood in wrapt wonder and silent awe, feeling instinctively that you were the master of masters; that like unto you, never did nor ever will arise a mouthpiece of song in Is rael.” To be chosen to fill the pulpit of such a man is recognition in itself of the highest calibre!! The Cantor's private life is one of exemplary service to those in need through means and methods almost forgotten by our people in recent years. Many a Cantor throughout this country is grate ful to this man for the assistance that was received in their time of need. Among his many and varied endeavors on behalf of philanthropic and charitable or ganizations. two deserve special mention: While serving in Pitts burgh, Pennsylvania — Cantor Schwartzman was presideni of the Chesed. Shel Ernes — taking care of burials, one of the great mitzvot of the Torah—as well as being part of Lee hem Anij/im (bread for the poor) which en abled the righteous to deliver as sorted foods to families in need.
