THE JEWISH M0HIT04 Friday, July 11, lfllf. RABBI GERSTEIN. Like a thunderbolt out of a clear sky came the shocking news of the untimely death of Rabbi Nathan Ger stein of San Antonio, Texas, at Tul sa, Oklahoma, Saturday night last. Rabbi Gerstein made a friend of everyone that he met, and of these there are many in this city, he hav ing been here for over a year, serving in the capacity of rabbi and principal of the local Hebrew School. He en deared himself in the hearts of every one of the Jewish (community. Th loss of a man of his calibre is irre parable from the viewpoint of a lead er in modern American orthodoxy. He was not only a scholar of the modern school of pedagogy, but also was a Talmudist of the old school. He had in him the magnetism and power to draw to him those of the young gen eration as well as those of the old. The cutting off of a promising ca reer of this kind is a loss to be felt not alone in the city, the community of which he happened to be serving at the time of his death, but to the Jewry of the entire southwest, for had he lived on, his influence would have been felt in many beneficient ways. . Rabbi Gerstein was not only above the ordinary from the point of view of a rabbi, but as a man he was above the average class. His warmth of heart and geniality of nature were extraordinary. He was a model hus band and father, and his home was his castle, where all his aspirations were centered. His aim was to do right always, never minding whether his plans met with the approval ot everyone. Once he set out to bring to life a certain idea, he never faltered and nothing could swerve him from attaining it. The writer of these lines feels thu loss more keenly for the reason that he was privileged to be (counted one of Rabbi Gerstein's personal friends ana knew, therefore, his real worth bet ter, perhaps ,than many other of his friends .The hearts of the entire Jew ish community go out in deep sympa thy to the bereaved widow and littlu children, and the prayers of every one go up to the Merciful Father, the Father of widows and orphans, that He shall be their guide and shield.
