Jewish Youth Adheres to Cleanliness, Plumbers’ Chief of Penn. Finds

(Jewish Daily Bulletin)

Jewish young men are the most scrupulously clean in the United States, from the plumbers’ point of view, declared Richard Turner, president of the Pennsylvania State Association of Master Plumbers, in an interview with the representative of the Dispatch-Herald here.

“For some reason, more showerbaths and shower fixtures are sold to Jewish boys than to any other class in the country,” he said. “I do not know how to account for this, unless it should be that Jewish parents are more strict in this phase of their child-training.”
