Mrs. Kaminsky. Oh, observing the holidays as best as we could, you know, fasting on the high holidays. When we were younger, we did that more religiously than we do now.

Mr. Griffin. Were there any practices maintained in the home?

Mrs. Kaminsky. Well, Friday was, more or less, of the holiday or our Sabbath, you know, Friday evenings, Saturday; and naturally, if we had jobs and had to work on a Saturday, we did, although orthodox people don’t.

Mr. Griffin. That’s right. You didn’t observe the Sabbath as the Orthodox Jews do?

Mrs. Kaminsky. No, no.

Mr. Griffin. Did your mother maintain two sets of dishes?

Mrs. Kaminsky. Not—no; I don’t remember that. We had many sets, pieces of them.

Mr. Griffin. Well, did your observance of the religious practices go beyond observing the high holidays?

Mrs. Kaminsky. Well, Friday was a special dinner as a rule. It was a little more elaborate, shall I say, and we did, in a sense, restrict ourselves to Saturday not doing housework.

Mr. Griffin. Yes.
