Author: Ruth von Bernuth. Chelm did not make its debut in the role of the foolish shtetl par excellence until late in the nineteenth century. When God created the world, so it is said, he sent out an angel with a bag of foolish souls with instructions to distribute them equally all over the world—one fool per town.
