- ft'fi wets talking about the Fourth of July. I told my friend, Cidocn, that Benjamin Franklin seemed to look on It as a kind of American Passover. Franklin propqsed that the seal of the United States should be an engraving of Ule • Israelites fleeing from Pharaoh. "Yes," said Gideon, "but It isn't celebrated rJgh't." "1 suppose you would have Americans eat matzohs on the Fourth like Jews on Passover," 1 said. "Why not? "asked Gideon. "Matzoh crackers would be better than firecrackers. No one loses an arm or leg eating xnatzob crackers. Besides, historically, they serve the purpose better. Jews eat matzohs because It recalls the haste of the period of the Exodus. Moses did not want to do any 'unnecessary waiting for the time required to make bread. There was the same necessity for hast* after the Fourth of July, 1776. The states had to be mobilized for sudden action. So matzohs would better recall that period." "Then Gideon," I said, "I suppose you think Americans on the Fourth maybe should also eat matzoh ball soup?" ""Of course," said Gideon. "Doesn't It say so In the Declaration of Independence?" "No," I said, "I don't think matzoh ball soup is mentioned in the Declaration of Independence." •.:••.,•.:•' ' "Yea, il "does," sald*Gldeon.
