...Shabbos Goyim Goats. In Tel Aviv recently, a young Orthodox Israeli went to his rabbi. He had just been offered a good job on the police force, he said, but it would mean that he would have to work on the Sabbath. What should he do? The learned rabbi was silent for some minutes, then he dismissed his visitor. He would send for him, he said, when he had come to his decision. Several weeks passed and the young man heard nothing.

...they had no reservations. There are numberless Goyim hotels that will give no reservation to a Bernstein or a Rosenthaler or a Silberblatt, though a Murphy or a Babbitt or a McDribble will be welcomed with the best. But last week a hotel opened its doors in Manhattan where this question, if it is ever asked, will be asked of Christians.
