  ... to the rabbinate. He was the last Rabbi Baranow was privileged to have. Unlike his predecessors Reb Avigdor was social minded. Though lacking the scholarly eminence of his father, he was the one instrumental in con-verting the large Besdin room into a center of learning. Here the "BETTER" lx›ys spent many hours poring over Talmudic tomes. The Rov himself conducted a shiur with some of the more promising boys. He saw in Zionism the very antithesis of Orthodoxy. The restlesncss of the younger generation, its flight from the Talmud to secular education, its becoming lax in observing the mores and taboos of tradition he attributed to the Zionists.

Six adults slept there, with a few chickens for good measure. Leizer was asthmatic, and had a violent temper. It was told of him that with his bare hands he had once torn apart an unfortunate chicken that happened to flutter on to the work table. In contrast, his wife Sura was a good natured and warm hearted person.
