  ... negative and tragic for the Jewish community. The two decades after the First World War filled with chaotic and disorderly events, which resulted in the Second World-War which for us Jews brought destruction and annihilation. This is a brief chronological review of the history of that time. THE JEWISH COMMUNITY 70wlsh community organization was established according to the Magde■ burg code of laws. At the head of the community stood the adminls-trators. In addition to the administrators 3 good persons were elected. They had their own court, which was under the authority of religious judges (Dayanim) headed by the Rabbi, and their judgments and decisions had to be ratified by the community leaders. The life of the community was centered around the synagogue. The first synagogue was already ...

  ... integral j›art of my being so that I feel that it has also ab-sorbed me into it. But alas for such an absorption ! Would it had been otherwise ! I can imagine myself strolling among its highways and byways, knowing just how to manoevre the descent at the Beit-medresh Barg without barging into the opposite wall before the turn.

Yet my imagination balks when it comes to the way leading to my husband’s family ...

The erstwhile Hebrew teacher, Eliezer Teicher, Glickel Braff’s husband, who had returned to Brzozow from Germany before the war, also collected children, teaching them Hebrew and Judaism in the "Untern Barg". All this stopped with the intensification of oppression and the Jewish children were left without instruction. The little ones were taught some reading and writing, a Torah verse or two and the like. The children walked with bowed heads, like fading flowers — well did they sense what was in store for them. My cousin, Esther Kreitstein and her husband Hershl Pincus ...
