A SMOOTH SOLUTION (Re: To Happy Hair Days, Issue 42) This letter is in reply to the woman who is struggling with her daughter’s frizzy hair and has a hard time brushing it in the morning. I had the same struggle. Mousse did not help me; it only made my hair more sticky and puffy. When I reached high school, I learned a technique that helped me a lot. I would take a spray bottle and fill it with conditioner and a little bit of water. Every morning, I sprayed up my hair with the mixture until it was fully wet, and then I would easily comb through it. After doing so, my hair would stay sleek and calm the entire day! (And if I was in a rush to go to school and skipped this process, my mother would tell me that my classmates would get lost in my forest of a ponytail...) I hope this idea will work for your daughter! A Frizzy Hair Survivor

I am also a lucky mother of an adorable curlyhead, writing in reference to the letter from a mother who wanted to hear more about handling curly hair. I once went to a hair stylist who styled my daughter’s hair for a simcha, and she offered me a liquid mousse from the company Fantasia. It is mess-free and inexpensive. (I’m not sure if it’s available locally, but you can ask a professional hairdresser about it.) Since then, I spray it on my daughter’s wet hair every morning; the routine definitely takes time, but it’s also less painful and gives her hair an adorable fresh look. Hatzlacha! M.F.

USUALLY THE BIGGEST BRACHA

‫האט כח צו פאסטן‬ ‫גרינגער תשעה באב‬

(Re: Hair-Raising Hair Horrors, Issue 42) Thank you for providing this forum for us to reach out to the public and clarify any possible misconceptions. My family loves The Boro Park View; it gets “attacked” as soon as it comes through the door. (My daughter in camp even requested I send them out to her so she doesn’t miss out!) I’d like to respond to the unfortunate woman with the nightmarish perm done on her son’s peyos. I don’t know by whom she had this experience or what they did to mess up so, but as someone in the perm business for many years, I can tell you that with the right know-how and techniques, and of course, tons of siyata d’Shmaya, a perm can be the biggest bracha! It can transform a boy with straight or unmanageable hair into a walking kiddush Hashem! I thank Hashem for the zechus of being the shaliach for bringing out the true Yiddishe chein in so many yingelach out there, whose mothers now find the morning so much less stressful. Sincerely, L.F.

THE PERFECT ACTIVITY (Re: Tied Up With a Bow, Issue 42) I was looking for something constructive to do while I fasted last week, and when I came across the feature with instructions for making scrunchies, I knew it would be the perfect thing! The results were so neat and pretty. Thank you so much, Gitty! D.S.

FAITH IN ME (Re: The Morning Melody, Issue 41) I’d like to share yet another beautiful insight on the words “rabbah emunasecha.” Going with the previously mentioned

PROVEN RESULTS!

Due to the current situation with the Posek Hador, Harav Dovid Feinstein, shlit”a, who is in need of rachamei Shamayim, bnei Torah in America and all over the world are being mispallel for his speedy recovery. In search of an added zechus, Harav Feinstein’s talmidim sent a shailah to Maran Sar HaTorah Harav Chaim Kanievsky, shlit”a, and he has advised bnei Torah around the world to finish Maseches Brachos as many times as possible as a zechus for Harav Dovid ben Shima.

Call in for Catskill Locations

Only hours after the word went out, the Shas Hadchak learning initiative launched their website once again to unite people in learning by each participant reserving just one daf, and within hours Maseches Brachos was completed many times over! To join the initiative and reserve a daf, call or text 757-ONE-SHAS (757-663-7427) or visit ShasHadchak. com.

INBOX explanations, it could have said “rabbah emunasi — how great is my faith in You.” So why does it say “how great is Your faith”? Whom does Hashem have faith in? The answer is that Hashem has faith in us. No matter what you’re going through in life, Hashem is telling you, first thing in the morning, that He has faith in you. He’s “rooting” for you; He knows you can do it and is giving you the strength to get through it. When I learned this, my mornings took on a new meaning. I might not (think I) have the confidence or the energy, but I know Someone Up There believes in me! And that, more than anything, is what can turn your life around for the better. Thank you so much for such a wonderful publication! A Reader

KASHRUS ALERT Thank you for a wonderful publication. Please publicize this important kashrus message: The other day I left the house for a few minutes to wait with my children for the bus, leaving some leftover tuna uncovered. When I came back inside, four house flies jumped out of the blender, leaving behind them three piles packed with booklice-sized white eggs! Be careful to cover all foods, especially proteins. Concerned for Kashrus

BAKING LIKE THE BUBBIES (Re: The Secrets of the Kokosh Saga, Issue 32) I wrote this letter in May and didn’t get around to sending it until now, but I think the point is still relevant. I very much enjoyed reading the article about the kokosh cake saga, written with such a good sense of humor. I especially liked the instructions for neatness and saving time; this is the right way to teach young women how to be organized. As a former Home Economics teacher, I especially appreciated it. The original Hungarian name for the cake is “kakaosh,” pronounced the way it’s written. The original version calls for a dough that’s basic but delicious, made with milk and butter. The filling is not so rich — a light cocoa spread. I am very amazed that in the filling you use more than 3 cups of sugar. This seems excessive to me (considering that the dough has only 4½ cups of flour). In America we all consume too much sugar. It would be much better for parents to discourage children from consuming such sugary treats, and encourage them to eat more fresh, healthy fruit. I try my best to persuade my grandchildren to do so, and slowly they are adapting to it. When I cut up fresh fruit and place it on the table, it always disappears! I also love to bake, and my specialty is a “kokosh.” The ingredients for the dough are very similar to yours, but the preparation is different. I fill it with crunchy walnuts and chocolate spread. My grandchildren claim that it is the best

24 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / July 22, 2020 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

kokosh, even if it’s not so overly sweet (maybe just because they didn’t taste your cake!). Nobody wants to gain weight, but everyone enjoys a piece of delicious cake once in a while. The Shavuos cheesecake photo spread was very impressive, but after reading the recipes, I was disappointed. Why does every cheesecake recipe call for cream cheese? Why not farmer cheese, which has half the calories and is much healthier? I think it’s even tastier; products with real cheese don’t make you feel like you’re eating butter. The original Hungarian or the fine Italian cakes were not made with cream cheese, and they were delicious. I don’t even know if there was cream cheese in Europe back then. I think that everyone would appreciate a trend that shows how to bake well in a healthier way. I would love to hear your thoughts. With my best regards, R.F.

YOUR VOICE DEAR MECHUTANIM, I’d like to use this forum to discuss late chasunos and the impact they have on guests. Baruch Hashem, we are up to a point where we can celebrate simchos without hurrying to finish up within the guidelines. However, the time wasted causes inconvenience and even angst for family and friends participating in the simcha. Mothers of young children spend time and money finding babysitters. Men don’t have the energy to awake on time the next morning for their avodas hakodesh, be it davening, learning or work. Bachurim wake up late — or simply don’t have the presence of mind to learn. Kids attend school late and miss important learning time. Teachers, melamdim and maggidei shiur all suffer when kids are late and miss davening and learning. Bubbies and zeidies, and elter-bubbies and elter-zeidies, stay up until late hours with mesiras nefesh, not wanting to miss a minute of the simcha, but is it fair? Mechutanim, too, are affected, with the extra fees these extra late hours incur. Even the chasan and kallah don’t have the energy to dance for three hours in a row. Perhaps the time for change has come. It was only recently that we learned how beautiful weddings can be, even when there’s only two hours of celebration. Why does a chasunah have to be seven to ten hours long? May Hashem give us the zechiyah to celebrate simchos with joyous hearts, in a way that makes it enjoyable and easy for all participants. G.S.

'‫פרק ב‬

‫י"ז‬-‫משנה ט"ו‬

In this perek, Reb Yochanan ben Zakai’s talmidim each list three fundamentals of Yiddishkeit. Reb Eliezer ben Horkenus, Reb Yehoshua ben Chananya and Reb Yosi Hakohen all mention different areas of ahavas Yisroel. Reb Eliezer says to respect others as you would respect yourself, Reb Yehoshua says that sinas chinam destroys a person, and Reb Yosi says to love your friend’s money as if it were your own. There couldn’t be a more fitting time to discuss this theme than now, during the Three Weeks. The Gemara says that during the era of the Second Beis Hamikdash there was Torah, there was tzedakah, and the Yidden were doing mitzvos. But at the same time, there was sinas chinam, as we see with the story of Kamtza and Bar Kamtza, to which the Gemara attributes the Churban. What happened? Due to a mix-up, Bar Kamtza, who was a staunch enemy of the baal simcha, arrived at a party instead of Kamtza, the host’s friend. The host physically picked up Bar Kamtza and threw him out of the hall, despite Bar Kamtza’s pleas that he’d pay for the entire feast to be spared the shame. And none of the chachamim or guests present stuck up for Bar Kamtza. Heartless, you might think. Until you continue to the second part of the story. In his fury at the host, Bar Kamtza went to the king and made a libel against the Yidden, saying that they were planning an uprising. To test them, the king sent a korban with Bar Kamtza to see if the Yidden would sacrifice it in the Beis Hamikdash. Intent on his evil mission, Bar Kamtza made a blemish on the animal, and the Yidden couldn’t use it. Now the king believed Bar Kamtza’s tale, and he destroyed the Beis Hamikdash and murdered millions of Yidden. Bar Kamtza was ready to have the entire Klal Yisroel destroyed because his


kavod was hurt. This shows that he was a rasha even before the incident and was probably well-deserving of being removed from the simcha. And now we can understand why none of the chachamim batted an eyelash at his shameful “eviction”; Bar Kamtza was obviously a notorious person. Nevertheless, even with his obvious reputation, the Gemara notes that because Bar Kamtza endured such busha, Hashem gave him the power to succeed with his evil plan that ended with the killing of so many Yidden. Such is the severity of shaming another Yid. In the days of the Noda b’Yehuda, there was a Yid by the name of Rav Dovid Becher who was the Rav of Turkey. The saintly Noda b’Yehuda wrote that before attempting to write teshuvos to Rav Becher, his hands would shake and his teeth would chatter in trepidation. He added that he had this awe before writing to only Rav Becher and one other gadol. This demonstrates how great Rav Becher was. Rav Becher was once making chasunah in another town and hired a wagon driver to take his family there. The drive took exceptionally long, and Rav Dovid was becoming stressed about keeping the large crowds waiting. He urged the driver to pick up speed, but it didn’t help. At some point, in a moment of nerves, Rav Becher muttered, “The driver’s such a shlemazel; can’t he go any quicker?” Hours later, after the chuppah, Rav Dovid suddenly remembered how he had embarrassed the wagon driver. He asked around for him, but he was gone. Devastated and determined to ask him for mechilah, he left his child’s chasunah, took two fast horses, two talmidim, and off they galloped in search of the wagon driver. After about two hours, they caught up with him on his way back. Rav Dovid got off his horse and begged the wagon driver for mechilah. The wagon driver refused, saying he had deeply hurt him. No money or gifts could placate the wagon driver. He said that only in exchange for half of Rav Dovid’s Olam Haba would he forgive him. Without a moment’s hesitation, Rav Dovid called his two talmidim to be witness that he was selling the wagon driver half of his Olam Haba for mechilah. This is the extent we have to go if we have hurt someone, because this is how grave it is to do so in the first place. As Reb Eliezer says, “Yehi chevod chavercha chaviv alecha” — we have to respect others even if they may not be the most respectable person. Every Yid has a portion in Olam Haba; clearly they are each worthy of respect, irrelevant of the impression they make. Peel away the outer layers, look beyond their appearance, status and background, and see only the honorable spark inside them. Whenever the Ahavas Yisroel of Vizhnitz went to visit a town and a huge entourage came out to greet him, he would look out for anyone in the crowd who looked like — for lack of a nicer term — a schnorrer, and he would march right over to these people and hug them. Apparently, his bekitche actually got dirty from embracing these homeless people. Afterward, what usually happened was that the other townsfolk would then also pay attention to these once-invisible simpletons and give them the due kavod every Yid deserves.

Project by Hatzalah Statewide Offers Emergency Coverage to Out-of-State Camps A relatively new Hatzalah initiative has mobilized this summer to provide coverage to the many summer camps that have relocated outside of New York State, where overnight camping has been banned because of the coronavirus outbreak. Hatzalah Statewide was created five years ago to offer emergency medical assistance to those traveling outside areas normally covered by Hatzalah, reported Hamodia. “We realized that if people are traveling out of our basic network area, then there are likely other Hatzalah members outside of the area as well,” explained Hatzalah Statewide coordinator Simcha Shain, who also serves as the Paramedic/ALS coordinator for Lakewood Hatzolah. Hatzalah Statewide, with a network of 275 members who are always on call, uses an advanced communication system that is operational worldwide. With camps moving this summer to locations such as Pennsylvania, Vermont, Rhode Island, New Hampshire and Maine where coronavirus protocols are less restrictive, Hatzalah Statewide reached out to camp directors to offer the services of members who are stationed in nearby areas. While Hatzalah Statewide does not offer transport services, it does provide emergency first aid, which can be crucial since it can take as long as 30 to 45 minutes for local first responders to arrive on scene. Additionally, a team of five Hatzalah Statewide members are always on call to locate the nearest hospital for those in need of specialized care, ensur-

32 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / July 22, 2020 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

ing that patients are taken to the medical facility that can best accommodate their specific needs. Hatzalah Statewide is available all day, every day, all year long at 201-613-1111. Founder and CEO Dr. Nosson Zemel noted that the phone number was specifically chosen to make it easier to remember, with the 613 portion of the number representing the taryag mitzvos, and the final four digits, 1111, symbolizing achdus. Camps can notify Hatzalah Statewide of their location by emailing camps@hatzalahstatewidenj.org. Anyone in need of additional information about Hatzalah Statewide and those who want to join the team can email info@hatzalahstatewidenj.org.

Below-Average Census Response Jeopardizing Local Funding and Representation With just three months left to fill out the 2020 census, Boro Park citizens appear to be lagging behind their New York City neighbors and may lose both crucial government funding and official representation because of their poor response. Boro Park 24 reported that only 41% of Boro Park residents have completed their census forms so far, compared with an average citywide response rate that is 12 percentage points higher. The federal government conducts the nationwide census every ten years, using the data collected to determine funding formulas for programs such as Medicaid and Section 8 in addition to allocating congressional seats and redrawing district lines for the City Council, New York State Assembly and state Senate. The census takes just moments to fill out and does not include any questions on household income, citizenship, immigration status or other sensitive matters, with all answers remaining confidential for 72 years. Assemblyman Simcha Eichenstein noted that while people may be understandably frustrated with the government right now, filling out the census is more important than ever, and he urged local residents who have yet to complete the survey to invest a few minutes in the process as soon as possible. “Without a much-increased response, our communities will not receive proper government resources and representation, which would be very unfortunate,” said Eichenstein. “We can’t allow that to happen — if we don’t respond, we don’t count, and if we don’t count, we don’t matter.” Both the Boro Park Jewish Community Council and Belz have been contracted by the city to encour-


age local residents to complete the census, a process that takes ten minutes or less. Rabbi Avi Greenstein, CEO of the BPJCC, noted that while he understands that our collective history has left many hesitant to share information with the government, there is no downside to filling out the census. “If we want people like Simcha Eichenstein, Simcha Felder, Kalman Yeger, Chaim Deutsch and others from our community representing our needs and those of our families and yeshivos, we need to fill out the census,” explained Rabbi Greenstein, adding, “If we are only 41 percent counted, that means that 59 percent of us are making a statement saying that we don’t count, and we are telling our elected officials that our needs aren’t important.” To fill out the census, call 844-330-2020 or visit www.my2020census.gov. Help for completing the census is available from the Boro Park JCC at 718-9726600, ext. 4633.

It has been a difficult few weeks in the five boroughs after Mayor Bill de Blasio’s crackdown on the NYPD, which included slashing the department’s budget by $1 billion dollars and disbanding its anti-crime task force. The number of reported shootings in the city has tripled over the same time period last year, reported the New York Post, and the city’s highest-ranking uniformed police officer, Chief Terence Monahan, was one of eight police officers injured by protestors on the Brooklyn Bridge last Wednesday. Quran Campbell, the 25-year-old Bronx resident who attacked Monahan, was released without bail under the mayor’s bail reform program. A record number of NYPD officers have submitted their retirement papers in recent weeks, according to Fox Business. NYPD Detective John Timpanaro officially retired on June 30, just one day after his 25th anniversary with the police, recalling that things were rough in the city when he first became a police officer in 1995. “I got to watch it come back to being in really great shape,” said Timparano, a resident. “And I think that on the day that I left, it’s now in worse shape than when I started. And it’s just a shame seeing all of that tremendous work get flushed down ... because of politics.” So many officers filed for retirement at the end of June that the NYPD placed a limit on incoming applications in order to process the surge of requests it had already received. “You have to be crazy to stay on a job where you are losing money, abused by the people you are trying to protect and not appreciated by the politicians,” said one Brooklyn police officer who declined to be named.

Recap: The Potolsky children find a mysterious yad while cleaning behind the fridge for Pesach. No one knows who it belongs to. In Bratislava, 1948, Gustav wonders why Janek and Ulush stopped visiting him in the hospital. He learns that the paper he had in his pants pocket when he was brought in to the hospital — which had the names and addresses of Edo’s uncles in Eretz Yisroel — was destroyed. All Gustav remembers from it is Edo’s real name — Yosef Ludmir — and his old address. The little house slowly underwent a change. Every piece of furniture was cleaned, packed well, and prepared to be sent to the new apartment. The children ate “Erev Pesach suppers” long before they were used to doing so every other year, but Elisheva knew that something had to give; she couldn’t be perfect on all fronts. So they ate pitas and pastrami and franks, and baruch Hashem, no one seemed to be the worse for wear because of it. “We’ve finished the dining room,” Eliyahu said with a sigh of relief late one night. The bookcase was dismantled, the seforim were packed in boxes, and the table and chairs were wrapped in plastic. The little ones were sleeping, crowded tightly into the bedroom. Later, they would be transferred back to their mattresses in the dining room. Elisheva sat down on a plastic chair. “There are two things left to pack, both of which are mysteries: the cuckoo clock and this silver yad.” “Right.” Eliyahu squinted. “What is this? A mystery without an answer, or what?” “There has to be a solution,” Devoiry said, looking from one parent to the other.

“Things don’t just land in homes out of nowhere…” “Maybe one of the little ones brought it in from someplace?” “Who? No one knows what it is,” Elisheva replied. Since they’d found the yad the morning before, the children had gone around to all of the neighbors in the building, asking if they had any idea who it belongs to. Maybe one of the neighbor’s children had brought it over when they’d come to play? But, as Eliyahu had predicted, no one knew anything about it. “We’ll ask what to do with it,” he concluded now. “And what about the cuckoo clock, Elisheva? What do you want to do with it?” Everyone in the room turned to look at the old clock. It was nice, but aside from taking up space in the room, there wasn’t much to it. It really didn’t take up too much space in anyone’s heart. “My father liked it,” Elisheva said hesitantly. “He got it as a wedding gift from a good friend, a watchmaker. But it would often break down…” “And it’s broken again now, too. It’s been so for years already,” Eliyahu said decisive-

ly. “The cuckoo calls every once in a while, but without any rhyme or reason… I don’t see any use for it. Can we throw it out and be done with it?” “We can try to sell it,” Riki suggested. “A cuckoo clock is a valuable thing.” “Not a broken clock that is seriously out of whack. We looked into it once; a repair would cost several hundred shekels.” “And how much does a working cuckoo clock cost?” Binyamin asked. “It depends, of course. But in general, I’m sure it starts at about fifteen hundred shekels; maybe you can get one for a bit less.” Their father passed a hand over his forehead. “I never really researched it, because I never planned to buy a cuckoo clock.” “We got it from Zeidy when he moved to the old-age home,” Elisheva reminded them. She looked at the clock again. “I think that if my father doesn’t mind, we should try to sell it. After all, it’s nice, and someone worked very hard to make the exterior beautiful. Maybe we can get two hundred shekels for it, or two hundred and fifty. If it doesn’t sell, we’ll throw it out.” “We just need to open it up beforehand,” twelveyear-old Chani said with a laugh. “Open it?” her mother asked. “Why?” She blushed. “Because in stories, all kinds of mysterious and ancient items are hidden in old clocks. So it would be a shame to just throw all of those secrets into the garbage...” “The secrets and the treasures!” Binyamin laughed. “Let’s go, then. You have the honor of opening it, Chani.” Elisheva stood up. “I have a key. But it was opened so many times already, that I don’t think you’re going to find anything more major than some dust in there.” “Why was it opened?” Binyamin asked. “Bubby, alehah hashalom, would keep documents in the bottom of the clock, and sometimes also money. But nothing was left of it.” She looked at her daughter’s disappointed expression as she stood in front of the open compartment of the clock, and at her big brothers who were snickering behind her back. “Don’t be disappointed, Chana’le. I told you there’s nothing in there. But it’s good to see that you have a sense of responsibility; you wanted to check the inside of the clock before doing anything with it. That’s an excellent middah.” “Is it possible to open the top?” “The top?” “The cuckoo’s house.” “Chani, are you planning to cut up the clock or something? Then we won’t even be able to sell it after-

ward.” Devoiry raised an eyebrow. “We can pick up the little roof,” Elisheva told them, “and peek inside. But I’m telling you, Chani, Zeidy opened this roof lots of times, when I was a curious little girl who wanted to see if there were any secrets in there. Kind of like you, Chani! But really, there’s nothing there.” “But would you let me check it again now?” Elisheva nodded, and then yawned. “And then we’re going to sleep, all of us. Tomorrow is another day of hard work.” Chani climbed onto the plastic-wrapped chair and opened the roof. Despite the earlier snickers, everyone watched her curiously. She peeked inside, and then stuck her hand in. “What’s going on? Is there something inside, or are you just keeping us in suspense?” Riki nudged her. “There’s nothing here.” Chani shook her head. “Nothing besides for the actual cuckoo bird and the metal piece that connects it. I just wanted to be sure.” She jumped off the chair, and like a final accord to the slight tension in the dining room, the little door opened, and after two months of no one hearing any sign of life from the cuckoo bird, it popped out and made its famous call three times. “That’s it!” Elisheva laughed once the cuckoo bird had retreated back into its little house. “The bird had its piece, and now it’s our turn — good night!”

Elisheva sat down on a plastic chair. “There are two things left to pack, both of which are mysteries: the cuckoo clock and this silver yad.”

Bratislava, 1948

“Gustav is about to be released, and the orphanage is being closed down. But they didn’t get certificates for all of the children.” Ulush nodded, patting baby Surah’s back. “What will they do then?” “Well, it’s clear that the curtains are soon coming down on the British show in Eretz Yisroel, but it’s impossible to know how long the last battle will take… And the problem is that it’s really not smart to wait here until it happens, because by then it might be too late.” She nodded again. “So the children will probably travel to Eretz Yisroel illegally — on the children’s ship. It’s the only solution they found right now.” “Gustav too?” “Looks like it. Rabbi Walkin already agreed to take him until the place closes down, because since the police already searched there, there’s less of a risk that

they’ll come by again.” “So Gustav will also go to Eretz Yisroel,” she said thoughtfully. “And what about us?” “I found out about the children’s ship.” Janek spoke slowly. “The list is closed already. The ship is full.” “And we have no chance of getting certificates, so we can enter Eretz Yisroel legally?” “I can try, but it will take a long time. And in the last two weeks, there were a few new developments that I still haven’t told you about.” He stood up and walked over to the little cabinet in the corner. “Remember Mendel Kokis, my cousin?” “The one from America?” “Right. He submitted an application for visas for us nearly a year ago.” She turned to him. “Entry visas to America?” “Yes.” He closed the cabinet door and returned to the middle of the room. Her eyes were riveted on the envelope in his hand. “This morning we received a positive answer.” Ulush’s eyes widened. “To go to… America?” “I think it’s worth it.” She sat down slowly, gazing at Surah’s round, cherubic face. “Why?” “War is going to break out soon in Eretz Yisroel, and I’m afraid for you and the baby. And it’s not like we have any feasible way of getting to Eretz Yisroel now, anyway. Also, if we go to America,” he glanced at the envelope, “my cousin wants to pay for part of our tickets.” “So does that mean that we won’t be going to Eretz Yisroel? And won’t meet up with Edo and Gustav?” “Well, we can always leave America if we want to. But first I want to see what will happen with the Arabs there in Eretz Yisroel.” He toyed with the envelope, and she realized that he was purposely lowering his eyes so as not to meet her gaze. “And I’ll tell you the truth, Ulush: I have no strength for more war.” “But we’re sending Edo and Gustav there —” “They were never in our official charge, Ulush.” He got up and went back to the cabinet. “We were only watching them for a temporary period of time.” “But we saved them!” she objected. “Then you can say we were the shlichim, the emissaries designated to help them. But we don’t have the right to make decisions about their future. Most of the people here are choosing to travel to Eretz Yisroel. And that was the natural choice for all of the children under their care, including Edo and Gustav.” Ulush went over to the window. The distant green hills of the village of Senica spread out expansively before her, dotted with well-tended wooden cottages. She’d never lived in a village before the war; she was a city girl through and through. Scenery like this was always associated with vacation, travels and trips. But during the war, when the area where she’d been was so green, light, magical and flourishing, she lost all her love for the green of the trees, the expansive grass

and the blue skies. All she dreamed about was Eretz Yisroel’s blue sky. But her dreams were not hers alone anymore. They had to meld with someone else’s dreams. And he was being logical… oh, so logical. “So we’ll be going to America?” Her voice was flat; only her lips trembled. “And you say that it will be easier for us to get there, and that it will be safer for the baby…?” “Yes.” He closed the cabinet’s wooden door. “And I promise you, bli neder, that if we don’t manage there and you aren’t happy, we’ll go to Eretz Yisroel.” “Cohen?” someone called from outside. “Janek?” Janek went to the door and opened it wide for Aryeh Lieber. “I was at the Agudah offices in the city, and I heard that the ship arrived.” “The ship? The one departing next week?” “No, the ship that arrived in Eretz Yisroel. The ship with your Edo on it.” “It arrived safely?” Janek breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to make sure his wife had heard the good news. “Nu, and what’s happening with the children?” “Right now, they’re under the auspices of... that group — the group whose ideology we want to keep the kids away from, and Akiva sent an urgent message to our people in Haifa that there were three children of ours on the ship and that they need to be transferred to suitable places.” “Of course!” Janek said. Then he wrinkled his forehead. “Do you think there will be a problem?” “I have no idea who they are dealing with there. Schwimmer, the group’s representative we dealt with here, was very fair and promised that they would not take our children beyond making sure that they got there safely.” “I really hope so,” Janek said. “Thanks for the news, Aryeh. I appreciate it.” “And we’re going to accept your cousin’s offer and go to America, just like that?” Ulush’s eyes flashed behind him. “When who knows what’s happening with Edo in Eretz Yisroel and what kind of chinuch he’s going to get?” Janek kept his voice calm and low. “Ulush, even if we do decide to go to Eretz Yisroel, it will take a long time, so we need other people to handle the matter for now, anyway.” He was quiet for a moment and then went over to the window where she stood. “People who are better suited than us for this kind of thing,” he added quietly. She slid her fingers along the clean slats of the wooden shutter. “And Gustav?” she whispered. “Gustav is traveling together with the rest of the children from our orphanage, not with those people. At least you can be relaxed about that.” To be continued...

The Pulse: This past week I sat down with Representatives Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ) and Max Rose (D-NY) to discuss their work with the Problem Solvers Caucus. Rep. Gottheimer represents New Jersey’s 5th District, which includes parts of Teaneck and Upper Saddle River. He recently fended off a primary challenge from Arati Kreibich, who received backing from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Bernie Sanders. His victory was convincing as he defeated Kreibich by a landslide margin of 73% to 27%. Max Rose represents New York’s 11th District, which includes parts of Brooklyn and Staten Island. Rose was first elected in 2018. He is a new, young and upcoming Democratic voice. Both Gottheimer and Rose are members of the Problem Solvers Caucus, which is a bipartisan group of congressional representatives who are committed to working across the aisle to solve problems facing the nation.

AL: What was the impetus for your involvement in founding the Problem Solvers Caucus? JG: When I ran for Congress in 2016, I was very frus-

trated by the inaction and fighting [taking place in Washington]. People seemed to go to Washington to say nasty things and yell at each other. I spent much of my career in the private sector, and I wondered why they couldn’t do what we had to do at work. You can’t get everything you want, but you can work together to move the country forward. One of the challenges in Washington is that people don’t speak to each other. If we don’t listen to each other and build relationships with each other, we can never agree on any issue. That is why I joined together with Rep. Tom Reed (R-NY) to recreate this group of 25 Republicans and 25 Democrats. We come together every week with one objective: to get things done. AL: What do you consider the most significant achievement of the Problem Solvers Caucus to date? JG: We have had many achievements, but the most

important one is a rule change, which allows us to bring the legislation that we have agreed upon to the floor for a vote. We got together to change the rules in the House, and we did it. Now any legislation that has the backing of 290 members of the House is guaranteed a vote. Through this change, we repealed a tax on surviving spouses of fallen active-duty members, we enacted environmental legislation, and we repealed a tax on 9/11 victim compensation. All of these accomplishments came about because of the rule change. We also played a significant role in getting criminal justice reform passed, in getting the government reopened after it was shut down, and in getting coronavirus assistance approved. We were also involved in ensuring that there would be no conditions attached on aid [to Israel] and in providing support for Holocaust education. AL: Recently, some mainstream Democrats have gone

down to defeat to progressive candidates. Does that mean that being a centrist who can work in a bipartisan fashion is losing its appeal among Democratic primary voters and activists? JG: Most of the country is somewhere in the middle

and wants us to get things done. They are sick and tired of us seeing people raise voices at each other. The primary system favors more extreme candidates on both sides. Nevertheless, I just got through a primary where I had someone endorsed by Bernie Sanders challenge me. My challenger also had the squad members come in to support her, but we won overwhelmingly. The message that I took away is that most voters want to

elect people who can get things done, but that does not mean that they won’t continue to try to target people in Congress who work to get things done. We recently saw a pro-Israel congressman in New York go down to defeat. Still, the key is to keep on doing what we do to get things done, and I am convinced that that is what the country and our voters want us to do. MR: We’ve got to get rid of the dichotomy of the left, right and middle. What I care about is having a sense of fierce urgency to fix this country’s problems. It is amazing how unified the American people are and how unified elected officials are about recognizing the issues that we have. We have problems with crumbling infrastructure, lack of access to opportunity, income disparity — whether they are racial or socioeconomic. Look, Josh has got all the brains. One thing I do know is that Republicans and Democrats must work together if we want to solve these problems now. You never sacrifice your values, you never give up a fight, and you don’t need to compromise on everything, but you have to be able to get things done for the American people. Otherwise, what are we here for? AL: The media and the 24-hour news cycle often seem to focus on soundbites and those who refuse to compromise. The work of those who work hard to get things done is not always recognized. JG: Getting things done is not nearly as exciting as op-

posing parties raising voices at one another, but that’s what the public wants. Max sells his brain short, but the two of us together make up a full person. AL: There was recently some criticism of Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) for failing to respond forcefully to a question posed to her regarding removing a statue of George Washington. Some took this to mean that centrist Democrats are becoming more beholden to the progressive elements in the party. MR: I speak for myself. I am not afraid of anyone — left, right or center. No one tells me what to believe. I follow my values. We cannot completely eliminate our nation’s history. We should not be tearing down every statue. That being said, we should not be honoring Confederate generals and naming streets after them; they are traitors. We also need to be aware that our history comes with significant flaws, blemishes and a legacy of injustice. All this talk about statues does nothing to address some of the incredible inequities [that exist today]. We can’t allow elected officials to just talk about [statues] without really addressing the issues and working to fix them. AL: Are you concerned that bipartisan support for Is-

rael is not as robust as it was in the past? Do you believe that there is cause for concern? MR: I believe that bipartisan

support for Israel is ironclad. It doesn’t mean that there aren’t fringes in the party, but they are fringes. We recently voted to affirm the importance of the Obama-era MOU [memorandum of understanding] and that it must remain intact. There must be no new conditions placed on aid to Israel. That would put America’s national security at risk. Again, there are fringes in the party — and by the way, there are fringes in the Republican Party as well; they may not appreciate the value of our relationship with Israel, but they are fringes. AL: What can the average person do to help the members of Congress who are working hard to solve problems and get things done?

LEMON CHIFFON CAKE 52 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / July 22, 2020 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770


Lemon Chiffon Cake Frank’s Bakery was an iconic shop in Monsey in years gone by. One of their specialties was a light chiffon cake with a ribbon of lemon cream running through each slice. As kids, we would relish the jelly part and leave over most of the cake. This is my attempt at recreating that specialty.

Ingredients 12 eggs, separated

1 cup oil

¼ cup seltzer

2¾ cups sugar

3 oz. orange juice

4 cups flour

3 T. vanilla sugar

3 T. fresh lemon juice

1 T. baking powder

Lemon Cream 1 container Baker’s Choice Lemon Creme

¼ cup confectioners’ sugar

¼ cup fresh lemon juice

Directions 1. Preheat the oven to 350°. Beat the egg whites and add the sugars. Lower the speed and add the yolks. Add the remaining cake ingredients by alternating wet and dry ingredients. 2. Mix Baker’s Choice Lemon Creme with freshly squeezed lemon juice and confectioners’ sugar. Pour the cake batter into a lined 10x16” pan. After putting aside ¼ cup of cream for the topping, marbleize the lemon cream into the cake. 3. Place the lemon cream into a bag, and make a tiny hole at the corner of the bag. Form thin lines of lemon cream at approximately ½-inch intervals on the cake. Using a toothpick, marbleize the lemon cream. Bake for 1 hour.

Marble Ring Cake Classic Bundts are characteristically dense. The delightful thing about this Bundt is its light and airy texture. This recipe uses a 12-cup Bundt pan, sponsored by and available at Auction Mart.

Ingredients 7 eggs, separated

½ cup orange juice

2 tsp. baking powder

2 cups sugar, divided

2 cups flour

2 heaping T. cocoa

7 oz. oil

1 T. vanilla sugar

⅓ cup confectioners’ sugar

Directions 1. Preheat the oven to 350°. Using an oil cooking spray that includes flour, coat the pan evenly. 2. Beat egg whites on high speed until foamy. Add one cup of sugar, and continue beating until stiff. Lower the speed, and slowly add the yolks. Add the remaining sugar. 3. Combine the oil and juice in a bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, vanilla and baking powder. Alternating wet and dry ingredients, add the contents of the two bowls to the mixer. 4. Pour three-quarters of the batter into the prepared pan. Add cocoa and confectioners’ sugar to the remaining batter. Pour into the pan and marbleize. 5. Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour and 10 minutes. Serving Suggestion: Sprinkle with confectioners’ sugar and melted chocolate.

CAPPUCCINO TRIO LOAF 54 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / July 22, 2020 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770


Cappuccino Trio Loaf This trilevel cake, which was originally presented as a Bundt, was passed along to my sister from a neighbor who received it from a third person, and so on. With compliments and apologies to the creator of this cake, I present my version of this winner. This impressive whopper of a loaf cake was baked in a 16-inch Wilton loaf pan, sponsored by and available at Auction Mart. Alternatively, it can be prepared as two loaf cakes using two 10-inch loaf pans.

Ingredients 8 eggs, separated 2¾ cups sugar 1½ T. vanilla sugar 1⅓ cups oil ¾ cup orange juice 2¾ cups flour 2½ tsp. baking powder ⅓ cup instant chocolate pudding 7 oz. cappuccino chips 1½ T. coffee, dissolved in: 1 T. hot water

Directions 1. Preheat the oven to 350°. Beat the egg whites until fluffy, and then add the sugar and beat until stiff. Lower the speed and add the egg yolks. Add the vanilla sugar, oil, orange juice, flour and baking powder by alternating wet and dry ingredients. 2. Divide the batter into three. Mix the instant pudding into the first part, and pour it into a lined pan. Mix the cappuccino chips into the second part, and gently pour it over the first layer. Add the dissolved coffee to the third part of the batter, and pour it into the pan over the first two layers. 3. Bake for 1 hour. Lower the heat to 325°, and bake for an additional 15 to 20 minutes. When cool, invert the cake onto a serving platter. Optional: Drizzle with melted chocolate or two contrasting glazes. Tip: To line the pan neatly, cut a 12-inch wide parchment paper 24 inches long. Wet paper. Shake off any excess water, and flex paper into the pan, smoothing it into shape.

TISHA B’AV, WE ARE TOLD, IS A DAY TO CRY. But how exactly are we supposed to cry? What are we supposed to cry for? We know that the crying is for the destruction of the Beis Hamikdash, yet we find ourselves centuries removed from the destruction. Are we capable of emotion for a tragedy so far removed from ourselves? Can we realistically be expected to cry for the loss of something we have never experienced? It would seem worthwhile to provide an overarching approach, a paradigm that will help us understand both the Kinnos in particular as well as the day of Tisha B’Av at large in a tangible manner. 60 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / July 22, 2020 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

Rav Shamshon Refoel Hirsch points out that although the day of Tisha B’Av carries with itself multiple restrictions, the essential feature is certainly that of taanis, of fasting. Yet one who is in aveilus, mourning the passing of a close relative, does not fast. There are many restrictions associated with different levels of aveilus, but fasting is not one of them. If Tisha B’Av is a day of mourning, how did fasting become such a central component? Looking through the words of Chazal, it is clear that fasting is not associated with aveilus, but with a sha’as tzarah, a time of potential danger or calamity. When a community stands at a point where they are at great risk, the gravity of the situation demands a call for teshuvah, for reassessment of actions, and to seek out ways for improvement. It is within this framework that we find the concept of fasting. Clearly, then, when Chazal went ahead and gave us a series of fast days, among them Tisha B’Av, though they certainly emphasized the element of aveilus, they did not intend for the day to start and end with that alone. They intended it as a day to analyze where we stand, to realize where in life we may have gone wrong, and to focus on what we can correct. It is a day of introspection, very much in the present, far more than just a day of mourning a historic loss. This, however, brings us to a most glaring question. How does the loss of the Beis Hamikdash so many years ago relate to our self-analysis today? How does the Beis Hamikdash, or


lack thereof, figure into judging our current state? By way of analogy: Suppose you’re driving from Montreal to New York, passing through the Adirondacks in one of the less inhabited areas, when you suddenly realize that there is someone you need to contact urgently. There is a problem, however. Although you have a cell phone with you, the nearest cell phone tower was recently razed to the ground in a violent act of vandalism by some hooligans. Now, as you take out your phone, you’re left with but the weakest connection. You try to make a call, but the call keeps dropping. When you finally succeed in getting through, the line is full of static, making conversation barely intelligible. You try to send a text message, but are unsure if the message was successfully transmitted. One person might be urgently attempting to contact his business partner, a different person to reach his

spouse. Each traveler in the area has their own story, yet each one suffers the same anxiety and frustration. The Beis Hamikdash did not stand merely as a place of avodah, a place where we could bring korbanos and perform other acts of avodah. The building was not an end unto itself; rather, it served as a portal, a means for us to connect with Hakadosh Baruch Hu. The building is gone, but ultimately, it is not only the building for which we mourn. One without service is certainly quite disturbed by the loss of the cell phone tower, but ultimately, cares not for the tower but for his lack of ability to connect. We, as well, mourn the loss of the physical building, but ultimately, our distress stems not from the lack of the physical structure, but for the lack of our personal ability to connect and speak to

Hakadosh Baruch Hu. Today, when we sit down and attempt to make that call, we are met with frustration. Someone sits down to

So many of our actions feel empty, as if we are just going through the motions without tapping into something deeper. learn a blatt Gemara, and finds himself struggling to get through each piece. He tries and tries, but feels like he’s simply missing that geshmak. A person goes through a tefillah, reciting the whole Shemoneh Esrei, and as he takes three steps, he wonders what just happened. Did I just speak to Hashem? Do

July 22, 2020 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / 61 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770


I have any idea of what I just said? It didn’t feel like much of a conversation at all. These and so many more of our actions feel empty, as if we are just going through the motions without tapping into something deeper. They lack the instant electrifying effect of connecting to Hakadosh Baruch Hu — when these actions were deliberately designed to create that very connection. It is this that we are missing today. Yes, when we talk about the Churban, we talk about the Beis Hamikdash. But if we want to see the effect of its destruction, the place to look is within ourselves. It’s not so much the destruction of a building; it’s the destruction of the quality of our lives. The Seder Hayom makes a most remarkable statement. He says that proper Tisha B’Av protocol dictates that each and every person should sit down and compose his own Kinnos to recite. For those who cannot do so, the standardized Kinnos will have to suffice. What can this possibly mean? How are we supposed to compose something new that no one thought to write in the

past 2,000 years? We’ve never experienced the Beis Hamikdash, neither its glory nor its destruction, and we weren’t there to personally witness the tragedies of all the previous centuries. What can we possibly bring to the discussion? Even if we were to attempt to compose Kinnos on contemporary tragedies, wouldn’t we be better served asking two or three leaders of each generation to compose something relevant for the times? If, however, we understand the tragedy of the Churban on a personal level, the words of the Seder Hayom come to life. Only you yourself know how much you’ve tried to speak

Only you know your challenges, the things you’ve struggled with, and how many times you’ve tried things that just don’t seem to work. It’s the story of yourself.

to Hakadosh Baruch Hu. Only you know your challenges, the things you’ve struggled with, and how many times you’ve tried things that just don’t seem to work. It’s the story of yourself. So today, when we sit down to cry for the Churban HaBayis, we’re ultimately sitting down to cry for ourselves. The Rishonim and others indicate that the days of aveilus don’t end with Tisha B’Av; rather, they begin with the period of the Three Weeks, continue through the days of teshuvah of


New Release! Elul, and culminate with the Yomim Noraim. We are dealing with a process to rebuild that connection, a process that begins with crying and ends with repairing that connection anew. If we are to rebuild our connection with Hakadosh Baruch Hu, our first step is to properly assess what we are missing. A person can only aim as high as he can picture his goal. A child growing up from a young age in a broken home can’t really appreciate and know what to strive for in creating a beautifully constructed marriage. Who are we? How great can we really be? What does it mean to carry the title of being a Yid? We’ve grown so far removed from Hakadosh Baruch Hu that we really need to be educated and instructed, little by little, as to who we really are and how we are supposed to conduct ourselves. A large portion of the Kinnos is devoted to describing the grandeur of Klal Yisroel, of the beauty and uniqueness we carried in times gone by. This is not merely to add to our feelings of loss, but rather to serve as a primer in how we ought to be viewing ourselves. If we take the time to understand how special each and every individual member of Klal Yisroel is, and with that, come to realize just how far we have fallen, we can begin taking the first steps toward rebuilding our relationship with Hakadosh Baruch Hu.

AFTER HERDING THE LONGSUFFERING JEWS FROM KITTSEE

out of the cellar of the inn, the Nazis forced the group into wagons and took them back to No Man’s Land, where they’d been told in no uncertain terms never to return. Again, they began to wander for miles upon miles, without knowing where to turn. The parents were becoming increasingly worried, and the thought began to cross their minds that they might not survive this ordeal. They decided to make a plan to at least increase the chances of survival for the older children by finding a place where they could smuggle them over the border. As for the babies, knowing they’d never be able to survive in such circumstances, they began looking for a place of shelter — perhaps a small hut or barn — where they would leave them in the hope that some caring person would find them. They prepared a note stating that these were Jewish children and asked of whoever finds them to please feed and tend to children until their parents — who would hopefully survive — would come back for them. The note concluded that they would pay those who took care of their children for their benevolence. This plan was heartbreaking, most of all for the mothers. But this was a desperate measure of desperate people in a desperate situation.

Rabbi Yaakov Schapiro holding the klaf that was slashed by the Nazis

As it turned out, at just about this time, in a true expression of hashgacha pratis, one of the men from the group found an unguarded opening in the border leading to a small town in Hungary. He crossed over, entered a village, and knocked on the door of one of the community leaders. The local Jews quickly arranged for the entire group to be secretly admitted into the village. Once inside, the Kittsee Jews hid in a home for several days. Meanwhile Rabbi Michoel Ber Weissmandl and his assistant Aharon Grunhut, the heads of the nearby Jewish community of Pressburg (today Bratislava, Slovakia), worked tirelessly to help them out. Eventually an arrangement was made: The community of Pressberg rented a freight barge, a flat-bottomed boat used to transport cargo, for the Jews of Kittsee to live on until a more permanent solution would be

Recap: After expelling the Kittsee Jews from their homes, the Nazis left them to fend for themselves on an island known as No Man’s Land. Eventually, in dire circumstances, the group, among them the Schapiro family, made their way to Hungary, where the guards forced them back into Austria — and back into the arms of the Nazis.


of only a pot of soup. They did the best they could under the circumstances. Sadly, sometimes the food spoiled on the way to the barge and had to be thrown overboard. The non-Jewish caretaker of the shul in Kittsee risked his life to come visit my father’s family. He brought some clothing for the children by wearing layer upon layer on himself, and he also smuggled in seforim for my grandfather and leichter for my grandmother. None of the surrounding countries — Austria, Hungary and Czechoslovakia — were happy with the location of the barge. On a daily basis, the guards of each country would threaten to cut the ropes and let the barge float down the river without a captain or destination, and every day new permits had Plaque that was put up where the shul once stood, commemorating the last Jews of the to be renegotiated.

cy and the American Joint Distribution Committee made efforts to find countries that would be willing to take in these homeless refugees. The families had to prove that they were upstanding people who would not be a burden on society. Some of the families immigrated to what was then known as Palestine, others to England. My father’s family was able to get mail to my grandfather’s sister who lived in New York at the time. My great-grandparents had been very unhappy when their daughter left Europe to begin a new life in the “treifene medinah,” but that was yet another example of hashgacha pratis, as it was critical that the refugees had someone advocating on their behalf on the other side of the ocean. My father’s aunt worked tirelessly for their release, and with great effort on her part, she was able to procure visas and arrange for my father’s family to immigrate to the United States. My family was eternally grateful for what my father’s aunt had done for them. No family simcha of my childhood was complete without an expression of hakaras hatov to Tanta Perela, without whose efforts we may not even have been here today. The family set out from Trieste, Italy, and arrived in the United States in November of 1939 on the S.S. Saturnia, one of the last ships to leave Europe before the war. A total of eighteen months had passed from the time they were forced to leave their home in Kittsee. Upon their arrival in New York, the Schapiros lived on the Lower East Side. But after a few short months, my grandparents and their four children — Joseph (my father), Genie, Asher and Rachel — moved to Spring Valley. My grandfather took a position there as a cha-

zan and shochet. In those days there was very little Jewish presence in the area; it was largely a vacation town. My aunts and uncle had no choice but to attend the local public school. One day, shortly before Pesach, my uncle came home from school with painted eggs. That was a turning point for the family, and my grandfather decided that he must open a school so that his children could get proper chinuch. That is how the Yeshiva of Spring Valley was born. My grandfather was the mashgiach ruchni of the yeshivah, as well as its first rebbi. My grandmother was also very involved in the school in its early stages. My uncle remembers many meetings dedicated to the planning and development of the yeshivah taking place around their dining room table. My grandfather was very involved in all chinuch aspects of the school until his sudden and tragic petirah in 1945 at the young age of 42. In 1973, my father’s mother passed away. One of her final requests was An obituary that appeared in a local paper after that my father travel to Vienna to visit Rabbi Schapiro’s passing the kever of her father, for whom he is named. Two years later, on their way home from a trip to Eretz Yisroel, my parents stopped off in Vienna for the day (my father refused to spend even one night in that town), and took a bus to the Vienna cemetery. It took quite a bit of time to find the kever of my great-grandfather; nobody from the family had been to the kever in over 35 years. When they found it, my father took out a pocket knife and began cutting away at the overgrown weeds that hid the grave. They said Tehillim and then set off for the shul of Kittsee where my father This document from the American Joint Distribution Committee is one had lived.

ther remembered the town well and headed straight for the spot where the shul should have stood, but they found a different building standing in its place. When they went to the town hall to inquire about the fate of the shul, they met the burgomeister (mayor), Mr. Konrad Frey. He explained that in 1950, the building had been demolished. He then asked my father what his name was, as he, too, had lived in Kittsee before the war. “My name is Schapiro,” answered my father. “Schapiro? I remember a Schapiro. He was the town shochet and had four children,” recalled Mr. Frey. “That is correct. And I am the oldest The leaders of the Kittsee community on the barge son,“ answered my father. When Mr. Frey heard that, the blood door, my father introduced himself and explained who he was. My drained from his face. He was quick to explain father thought the daughter was just being polite when she said that that although he lived in the town at that time, he she knew exactly who he was, but it turned out that she really did; most certainly was not involved in harming any her mother had spoken to her family about the Schapiros very often Jews. From that moment on, Mr. Frey gave my parover the years. As it happened, Resi had traveled to Vienna for the ents the royal treatment. He took them around in day, and so my father left an old family photo with her daughter and his limousine and showed them some of the sites drew an arrow pointing to himself so that Resi would know which of Vienna. My father asked if the caretaker of the Schapiro had come by. shul was still alive and was told that he had already Several weeks later, my father received a letter from Resi. She passed away, but that his daughter, Resi, was still had been waiting for so many years to be reunited with the famliving in Kittsee. Mr. Frey drove my parents to ily and was sorely disappointed that she had missed his visit. Had Resi’s house. When Resi’s daughter answered the she known that he would be coming, “wild horses could not have dragged her away from her home.” She recalled the beautiful times that the families shared in the happy years before the war, and she even remembered the zemiros that my father’s family sang. Who knew then what the future would bring? She wrote that the Nazis auctioned off the possessions of the Jews after they threw them out of their homes, and that her father had bought whatever he could afford of our family’s belongings in the hope that one day he would be able to give them back to us. Resi still had some of those objects in her home and had been waiting for someone in the family to come back to Kittsee so that she would be able to return them to their rightful owners. My father and Resi continued to correspond for a short while, filling in one another on the years that had passed. One day my father received a phone call from a stranger who asked to meet him as he had a package for him. My father met the man who then presented him with the tea set from his home in Kittsee. Resi had sent it with the man when she heard he was traveling to New York and begged him not to let it out of his sight for even one second until he had hand-delivered it to my father. In 2010, my husband and I went to visit Vienna. We, too, went to the kever of my great-grandfather; at that point another 35 years had passed since my parents had been there. We also visited Julia, one of the caretaker’s daughters who was still alive at the time. She had very vivid and fond memories of my family, which she shared with us, and she sang a Jewish song that my father had taught her over 70 years earlier. I had heard so much about the shul in Kittsee, but I had never

Those who were there were easily able to identify WHOM the fictional characters were inspired by. seen a picture of it, and I was so pleased to find that Julia had one hanging on her wall. Even though she wasn’t Jewish, her memories of the shul and the families who lived there were very close to her heart. During our visit, she took the picture right off the wall and gave it to me. The story of the Jews of Kittsee has been documented in newspapers and is known all over the world. We don’t understand the ways of Hashem, but we do know that all Hashem does is for the good. When the Jews of Kittsee were thrown out of their homes and were not accepted into any country, I am sure they questioned why they had to undergo such hardships. They most certainly wished they could have returned to their homes and to their previous lives. But unbeknownst to them at the time, their forced expulsion prompted their escape from Europe before it was too late, and that was in actuality what saved them. I shudder to think what their fate might have been had events not unfolded as they did. Rabbos machshavos b’lev ish, va’atzas Hashem hi sakum.

Somehow my grandfather had been able to smuggle a Sefer Torah out of Vienna and bring it to the United States. The Nazis, ym”sh, had slashed the Sefer Torah with a knife, exactly on the words “‫ כן‬,‫וכאשר יענו אותו‬ ‫ — ירבה וכן יפרוץ‬But the more they (the Egyptians) oppressed them, the more they (Klal Yisroel) proliferated and spread.” The Jews of Kittsee were similar to the Jews of Mitzrayim in this way. The more they suffered at the hands of the Nazis, the more they increased and grew stronger.

The beis hachaim in Bedzin

76 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / July 22, 2020 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770


NO MATTER

how many meaningful articles I read on the Churban and how many kinnos I say, I still have trouble connecting to the deep-seated aveilus of Tisha B’Av. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that the fault is mine and that my failure to internalize the unfathomable losses that have occurred on that fateful day throughout the years is further compounded by the fact that we live in a time and place where we enjoy a multitude of brachos in our lives. But last summer, when I signed up for a heritage tour in Poland, Tisha B’Av took on a greater meaning.

The tour, by Project Mesorah, wound its way from Warsaw to Krakow, stopping along the way at mekomos hakedoshos and historic sites of devastating significance. With our journey ending an hour away from my father’s hometown of Bedzin, my husband and I both knew that there was no way we could leave Poland without making a short stop in the place that, even today, my father refers to as “back home.” Of course, taking a trip that spanned both the miles and the years required some preparatory investigation. Growing up, I had always seen my father observing the exact yahrtzeit of his mother, who died when the Germans came to round up most of the town’s Jews three years after the initial invasion, and watching an interview that my father had given years earlier in preparation for our trip, I was surprised to realize that he knew

The beis hachaim in Bedzin

that she had been buried in a mass grave in the local Jewish cemetery. I also managed to discreetly wheedle some previously unknown details out of my father about his childhood, supplementing that information with my own research on Bedzin and its history. Apparently, Bedzin was one of the oldest cities in the Za-

gust finished off the once vibrant stronghold of Yiddishkeit entirely. An article from the Zaglembie World Organization’s archives described the horrific end of Bedzin’s Jewish community on a day that had been destined for tears, concluding with the words, “On the ninth of Av, the day Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans, the Bedzin Jewish community, Jerusalem de Zaglembie, ceased to exist.” Tisha B’Av? Had the final end to my father’s hometown, a town that had been dubbed an Eastern-European Yerushalayim, come on Tisha B’Av? The answer is, apparently, yes. And after years of not being able to relate to the concept of the Churban, it suddenly came together for me in a very personal way just as we were ready to leave for Poland. And so I found myself one picture-perfect Sunday morning last August, standing inside the locked gates of the cemetery that had been used by the Jewish communities in the neighboring towns of Bedzin and Czeladz to bury their dead since 1915. Never in my lifetime could I have ever imagined that one day I would be davening in close proximity to where the grandmother I never knew had been buried, but it seemed only right that I ended up there, bringing a nechamah of some sorts to a place where the ashes of the churban still smoldered. While many of the matzeivos in the cemetery had been restored somewhat recently, I knew that there

By the year 1900, Jews comprised half of Bedzin’s population. But things turned ugly when the Germans stormed Poland on September 1, 1939, and burned the massive shul to the ground just days later with some 200 people locked inside. My father and his family, whose roots in Bedzin extended back at least 200 years, were rounded up in a mass deportation in 1942 that left just a handful of Jews behind, and a bloody ten-day battle the following Au-

would be none for Chava bas Yosef, the woman I had traveled more than 4,000 miles to honor, and I made my way through the twin rows of majestic trees that separated the men’s and women’s sides to the back of the cemetery where I knew the mass graves were located. There were three of them, and I stopped to say Tehillim at each one, leaving a kvittel bearing our names — my parents’, my husband’s and my own, our children’s and grandchildren’s — in the grass at the largest one, topping it with a small rock. All my life I had heard how my grandmother would tell my father, her mischievous youngest child, how she wanted to be able to peek in through the window and see him firing tish at his Shabbos table one day. Could it be any more fitting to come there as living proof that my father had raised a beautiful family, and that he was having the incredible zechus of seeing a third generation carrying on the traditions that he remembered from his own youth? I probably could have stayed in that beis olam for hours,

davening and reveling in the fact that I was standing on ground that connected me to the aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents that I never had the privilege of meeting. I wanted them to know that we all know the niggunim they sang as their Shabbos zemiros and have heard how the floors were smeared with a fresh coat of red paste every year as

Had the final end to my father’s hometown, a town that had been dubbed an Eastern-European Yerushalayim, come on Tisha B’Av? The answer is, apparently, yes. they prepared for Pesach and how my father and his brother would sneak into the mikvah because that was the best place to hear all the latest hock. Most importantly, I wanted those long-gone relatives to know that while they had seen their world crumbling all around them, my father had passed

their torch forward, and that I was taking full responsibility for making sure that those flames continued burning brightly for my own children and grandchildren. We spent just one more hour in Bedzin. Only one of the two homes where my father had once lived was still standing. The spot where the other had once stood was now paved over and used as a parking area, a stark reminder that the Bedzin that my father still treasures in his heart was long gone. We visited one of the town’s older cemeteries, drove down streets where I knew several relatives had once lived, and stopped at the memorial for the magnificent shul that no longer was. I left one more kvittel at the memorial for Bedzin’s Jewish community that marked the spot where the Kamionka ghetto had once been before we headed off for the Katowice Airport, taking advantage of one last opportunity to take pictures of road signs bearing the name “Bedzin,” proof that the large town I always imagined as having been swallowed up by the earth really did exist. It seemed wrong in a way to feel uplifted after leaving a place where a thriving Jewish community the size of Boro Park today was wiped out, but I did. I couldn’t change the fact that terrible things happened in Bedzin, but going back and setting foot in the town that is still so much a part of my father’s identity, and davening in the place where my grandmother was buried, made me feel connected to the family members that I had always wished I had known. Much like Shabbos Nachamu comforts us with the knowledge that the tears of the Churban will one day be replaced by the joyous arrival of Moshiach, I can only hope that my trip to Bedzin brought nechamah to my father’s family in Gan Eden, showing them that there are children, grandchildren and even great-grandchildren keeping their memories alive and perpetuating their legacies for future generations.

The method can be used on everything these days: clothing, shoes, hair accessories, towels or bags. And it’s not only about having some crafty fun; the end results are also for real use. Follow along as I teach you three cool tie-dyeing techniques. Each one can be done with many different articles of clothing and accessories, so don't limit yourself to the three featured items. Have fun as you get color crazed!

You may want to do this project outdoors, as it can get a bit messy! Spread a plastic tablecloth on your work surface. Wear rubber gloves and junk clothes. An apron or smock is also a good idea!

2

Prepare the dye according to package instructions.

2. Spread the towel on the plastic covering your work surface. 3.

3 Using tape, form the letters of your name on the towel, making them nice and big. To keep the name centered, start with the middle letter of the name in the center of the towel, and work your way out on either side.

4. Press the tape down to make sure it’s nice and secure. 5.

4 Arrange the spray bottles in the color order you would like to follow.

6. Try to visualize the amount of space you will give each color. It doesn’t need to be perfectly even. (If you do want perfect measurements, you can use a tape measure and make little marks spaced evenly apart.) 7.

5 Spray a generous amount of each color dye over the desired area, overlapping them a bit as you go along. Be careful when using the spray bottles, as they may drip.

8.

6 Let the towel dry completely.

9.

7 Carefully remove the tape.

Set the colors: 1. Place the towel in the dryer on its own for an hour. 2. Wash the towel on its own on a regular cycle, and then dry again. The colors may run a bit into the name, but the letters will still stay sharp!

7

3. The first few times you wash the towel between uses, wash it in its own cycle.

Prep your work space: You may want to do this project outdoors, so that you don’t bleach anything else around the house by mistake! Spread a plastic tablecloth on your work surface. You may also want to use a plastic bin or disposable pan to work in. Wear plastic gloves and junk clothes. An apron or smock is also a good idea!

Fabrics to use: This can be done with any solid-colored item. (Think sweatshirts, headbands, socks, towels, etc.) The darker the color, the stronger the contrast will be!

SHARPIE MARKER TIE-DYE 1

Time to tie-dye! Supplies:

1

1.

Sharpie markers Rubbing alcohol Eye dropper Cup Cardboard Any item that’s made of white or light-colored fabric

Prep your work space: This activity is way safer and cleaner than the other two! Gloves and aprons are not necessary, but I do recommend covering the table you’ll be working on just to be on the safe side!

2 If you’ll be dyeing a double-layered item, place a cardboard in between the two layers of fabric (so the colors don’t run through to the other side).

2. Choose the colors and design you plan to create. 3. Make sure the fabric you are working on is completely flat. You may want to hold it down with your other hand. 4.

3 Draw five to six dots to form a circle.

5.

4 Pour rubbing alcohol into a cup.

6.

5 Using the eyedropper, slowly let the alcohol drip into the center of the circle formed by the colored dots.

7.

Watch as the colors slowly spread outward. The more alcohol you release from the dropper, the wider the colors will spread; that’s how you can control how big or small the design should be.

90 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / July 22, 2020 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

2

This is a fun activity to try on any piece of scrap fabric! Play around until you get the hang of it and feel ready to try the technique on something you’d really use! This is just one pattern; enjoy exploring different designs using markers and alcohol.


8.

Imagine...

7 Work on one circle at a time, leaving enough space between them so each one has room to spread.

9. The circles can be differently sized, depending on how big and how spread apart you draw the initial dots, and how much alcohol you let drip into the center.

3

Set the colors: 1. Iron the fabric to set the colors permanently. 2. When washing the first few times, put it in its own cycle to make sure the colors don’t run onto other articles of clothing.

We would love to hear your thoughts, feedback and stories. If you have anything to share or wish to see your colony featured in the coming weeks, please drop us a line at comments@thebpview.com.

THIS WEEK:

ALPINE ACRES CONDOMINIUMS A CHASSIDISHE COLONY THAT REVOLUTIONIZED SUMMER LIVING It is said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. By that metric, Alpine Acres, the popular chassidishe colony in South Fallsburg, sure has a lot to be proud of. In fact, calling Alpine a colony doesn’t do it justice; village would be a more appropriate term. With nearly 130 houses, a network of streets and roads, three shuls, and hundreds of visitors every Shabbos, Alpine is what dozens of soonto-follow colonies aimed to emulate over the years.

HISTORY About twenty years ago, popular Catskills developer Nachman Kanovsky set out to build what was never built before: a truly chassidishe year-round colony with winterized homes and all the amenities of a full-fledged development. It was a revolutionary undertaking at the time, as up to that point the community was accustomed to the old, flimsily built bungalows so prevalent throughout Sullivan County. Until then, families spent yamim tovim and non-summer Shabbosos exclusively at home. But with families getting larger and Brooklyn apartments smaller, the time was ripe for this undertaking. When units at Alpine Acres Condominiums hit the market, a number of prominent chassidishe

balabatim expressed their eagerness to join this fledgling development. Before long, Alpine earned the reputation it proudly carries to this day: a respected, upscale, ehrliche community with all the hallmarks of chassidishe communal life. It’s been only sixteen years since Alpine’s first summer, but one can’t talk about Yidden in the Catskills without mentioning this center of Yiddishe life. Every Shabbos

96 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / July 22, 2020 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

throughout the year, the colony hosts a minyan. Other than Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur (and Pesach up until this year), Alpine has been fully open and maintained for vacationers and their families around the year. The grounds and amenities are firstrate and are kept in perfect order. By now everyone else in the Catskills know that if Alpine does it, it’s gotta be right.

AN EMBODIMENT OF CHASSIDISHE VALUES In conversations with those who were instrumental in Alpine’s growth, I detected a sense of pride in how the colony represents all that is good in our community. But Alpine doesn’t just talk the talk; it truly walks the walk. It is almost too fitting that throughout the year, Catskills Hatzalah chose this colony to be the home base for the local ambulance. Alpine boasts double-digit Hatzalah members, and chesed is an integral part of its infrastructure. The women of the colony even cook dinner every night for patients and family members in Harris Hospital. Nary a week goes by where at least some of the homeowners avail their bungalows to struggling families in need of a break. But it doesn’t end with chesed. Part of the annual membership dues go toward supporting a kollel throughout the summer so that the sounds of Torah are always heard in the beis midrash. Speaking of the beis midrash, three shuls were built throughout the sprawling development so that every resident can join the minyan and the davening time that works for their family. Another aspect that makes Alpine special is the high standards it sets for itself as a true vacation destination. The board has a clear mandate to settle for nothing but the very best. Parents offer rave reviews for the on-site day camp and the colony pool amenities. The landscaping is meticulously cared for, and first-time visitors are always stunned by the beauty of the common areas. While an Alpine supermarket was in the original plans and had actually already been built out, the board decided to nix the idea



so that the colony keeps its quiet, peaceful charm. Most of the original buyers were parents of young, growing families, and as the years flew by, the children grew up to have young families of their own. A number of owners have since renovated their units to accommodate their young couples, and today an average summer Shabbos sees upward of a few hundred shtreimlech fill the colony. While the homes are winterized and offer enough space for regular indoor living, the colony still features a strong friendship and camaraderie between the families of various kehillos and mosdos. “My Alpine friends are my year-round friends,” said one middle-aged mother, unprompted. “You won’t find a nicer group of heimishe, chassidishe and balabatishe families than what we have here.” The colony has seen a number of visits from prominent rabbanim and dayanim throughout the years. The business owners and balabatim are all Torah-oriented, and the rotation of regular shiurim are well attended throughout the summer. Instead of Motzei Shabbos volley games, friendly melaveh malkahs with sipurei tzadikkim are more Alpine’s speed. Alpine Acres Condominiums features a disproportionate amount of prominent kehillah members and respected figures in their year-round communities. But during the summer months, egos are put aside and homeowners let their guard down, creating a warm and friendly environment for every age group. When the weather turns cold and the winter begins to take over, a quick weekend trip upstate is all Alpine families need to be reminded of the warm days and even warmer atmosphere that make summers at Alpine special.

TYPES OF BUNKERS WHAT IS A BUNKER? A bunker is a concealed shelter or hideout, usually underground, meant to protect people and property from bombs or other attacks. In contrast, blockhouses are usually above ground. Though generally used in the military, bunkers can also be used for protection against natural disasters such as earthquakes or tornadoes. The term “bunker” as we know it today refers to military hideouts dug into the ground, but this wasn’t always so. Indeed, in the 1800s the word referred to various kinds of dug-up or hidden areas, each built with a different purpose. Back then, a bunker could refer to an area in the house used for coal storage, or the section of the ship found below decks. When underground shelters were built for military use during World War I, they were referred to as “bunkers’’ only by the Germans. The English, in contrast, simply called them dugouts. During World War II, the term finally appeared in the English language in reference to military bunkers, though it still referred to dugouts built specifically by the Germans.

Bunkers come in all shapes and sizes and can be built in a variety of ways. Here are some of the more popular types: A TRENCH is a small concrete building that is dug partially into the ground. A trench bunker can be an individual bunker or part of a network of trenches. It is generally better at protecting people than a typical open trench. It provides shelter in cases of air attacks, and also from nasty weather. Like a trench, a PILLBOX is also a small building made of concrete, but the difference lies in its small windows through which inhabitants can shoot out. The term “pillbox” came to be because these bunkers resembled the boxes pills used to come in. Pillboxes were used a lot during World War I. INDUSTRIAL BUNKERS were built by many nations during the world wars to protect important industries from being bombed. For example, many mines in Germany and France were transformed into bunkers to protect them. Industrial bunkers are often built to protect food storage areas, data storage areas, and they’re sometimes even built as places people could live in. MODERN NUCLEAR BUNKERS are sealed to prevent contamination from nuclear fallout and to keep deadly radon gas and airborne toxins out, including those from biochemical weapons.

AROUND THE WORLD Apparently, the Soviets were quite concerned about nuclear war because they maintained huge bunker systems. In fact, one of the reasons the Moscow Metro and Kyiv Metro systems were dug so deeply was so they could double as nuclear shelters in case of attack. In Switzerland, there are an unusually high number of bunkers because of a law initiated

A BUNKER BENEATH THE WHITE HOUSE BUNKER BUSINESS Despite the many decades that have passed since the end of the Cold War, companies that build private nuclear bunkers are still around. For a hefty fee, your custom-made bunker can protect you from the heat, radiation and radioactive fallout of a nuclear explosion. A standard package will include a plumbing system, a filtration system for drinking water, and maybe even a power generator and shielding for electronics in case of an electromagnetic pulse attack. You’ll want to stock your bunker with plenty of dried, canned or otherwise preserved food. Here’s hoping your investment will be a complete waste of money!

BUNKERS DURING THE HOLOCAUST During the Holocaust, many Yidden tried to avoid detection from the Nazis, ym”sh, by sheltering in makeshift bunkers. These were usually cellars, attics or hidden spaces in the ghettos, or out of sight in forests or on farms. Inhabitants had to stay completely silent for fear their noise would give them away. The Nazis went from house to house seeking hiding places that sheltered Jews. They tapped walls, searched for hidden doorways, and even burned down buildings, hoping to force the Yidden to emerge from hiding.

in 1963 that requires protective shelters to be constructed for all new buildings. There are also a number of bunkers built as part of its National Redoubt military defense plan. Some of Switzerland’s bunkers later became tourist attractions and today house both hotels and museums, including the Sasso San Gottardo Museum.

The White House Secret Bunker, known as the Presidential Emergency Operations Center (PEOC), was first built during World War II when Franklin D. Roosevelt was president. It was meant to protect him in case of an aerial attack on Washington, D.C. Since then, the PEOC has been used as a place of protection and communication whenever the president or his staffers were deemed to be in danger. The PEOC is located five stories down from the East Wing of the White House. It has its own food and air supply and is surrounded by very thick concrete walls to seal it off from radiation in case of nuclear attack. The bunker is protected with vault-type doors and biometric access points. Several tunnels enter and exit the bunker. Two that we know of completely leave the White House, one of which leads to the Treasury Building and another that leads to an entrance on H Street. On September 11, 2001, when terrorists attacked the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, President George W. Bush was in Florida. However, Vice President Dick Cheney, his wife and other officials who were in Washington, D.C., at the time were immediately whisked away to the presidential bunker to keep them safe. More recently, on May 31, 2020, during the protests over George Floyd’s death, President Donald Trump was reported to have been sent to the secret bunker. The president later denied that he was in danger and declared that he had only visited the bunker for a short inspection. Which report was fake news? You decide.
