According to tho ritual, the rabbi after a few words hands a'glass of wine to the bride and then to groom, aftei taking a drink himself, and after all have pledged themselves, the groom smashes it underfoot, to signify Hint so shall all differences In life be crushed out. There came near bo- ing a hitch at this as the only glass in was a' heavy one and the groom protested ho would be unable to smash it, weak as he was from fasting, so a hurried search had to bo made for a thin glaBs which would easily yield to being crushed and so there was no failure of the good luck omen.
