There is always something new I'M

invention to catch rabbits has Just
reached us and it occurred during the
last snow near Siler City. A man OF
this township went hunting the day
after the snow and coming to a piece
OF new ground found literally hun
dreds of tracks. There were dozens
OF brush piles in the field and the
tracks, Of course, ali led to those
piles. A bright idea was suggested to
this hunter and he at once went
home, secured a SEEMING net and re-
turned to the field ready for business.
The long seine was placed around a
pile and the rabbits shooed out. and
by the time he had visited fifteen piles
he had more rabbits than he could
carry and then had to discontinue his

- ne of the most pleasing, practi-
cal and encouraging experiments
- Of modern times is the National
Farm school, near Doylestown, Bucks
county. Pa
This school was started Is years ago,
with very meager capital by Rabbi ].
Krauskopf. Of Philadelphia.
The rabbi was filled with desire TO
lessen the pressure In the congesteu
districts of the great cities through
training young people to love 600 5
great out Of doors.
It is hard task to teach farming on
a practical basis in any event, but
think of the task of rabbi krauskopf
in teaching Jewish boys to farm!
For 1000 years the Jews have been
weaned from agriculture Once they
were the supreme farmers Of the world.
But since the fall of Jerusalem under
the emperor Titus, in the year 20 A.
D, the Jews have been wandering on
the face Of the earth. The ghetto" in
every city has been their home. There
they have been packed in and the habit
of this close association has been upon
them.
They were not allowed to own land.
In fact, they had no names To pre-
pare the soil, TO plant to plOw, to SOW,
TO reap and garner the harvest-this
was not for them.
It is too much to expect that you can
and set them down in the country and
teach them to till the soil
They are lonely. The great open

stretches Cypress them. They are fun
Of fear and doubt They crave human
companions. They want the music, the
lights, the lure, the conversation, the
song and all the sentiment that goes
with the city. You can hide in the
city; in the country you can't.
They have not learned to love the
clouds. the rain, the storm. the trees
the bees, the birds, the butterflies.
1t takes time to make close compan-
those that fly and swim in the waters
or in the air.
People grown to manhood's estate
can not have their habits changed in
a day, week, a month or a year.
To relieve the cOngested districts
you must take the boys and girls.
They will then adapt themselves to the
new environments.
City children make good farmers.
And country children, having had an
overdose of farming, are often filled
with desire to get away and taste of
the pleasures Of the city.
For Is years rabbi KrauskOpf has put
every dollar of his incOme-au the
money he makes from lectures. we'd

become strong. helpful self-reliant,
manly.
The colony system. of having the
boys scattered and living in regular
farm homes, has been found eminently
practical.
1t was great delight for me to
spend d day at the Farm school. The
place IS UndenOminatiOnal and nOn-sec-
tartan Religion here consists in doing
your work ana being kind Can you
improve on it?
1 saw boys of 10 and 10 who could
hitch up a team, go off a mile or so
across the fields and finish a job Of
blowing, dragging, drilling, alone.
They could take care OF animals
Whitewash buildings, repair the fences
lay out roads, cut down worthless trees,
and cut them up into lengths suitable
for firewoOd.
The lads moved about their tasks
quietly, mOdestly, with an integrity of
intent and purpose which betOkened
that they were men, indeed.
The hope of the world lies-and it
always has-in the plain people. the
people who can begin a task and finish
it; who know what they are going to
do and who can go about it and do it.
Rabbi KrauskOpf himself is d man OF
this same type-simple, quiet unpre-
tentious, able TO make a decision and
live for 1t, fight for it. and, if necessa-
~, die for it.
TO get along without tobacco, slim
ulants. narcotics, drugs and find health
and inspiration in the sunshine and the
soil, this, indeed, is Il great achieve
ment
Rabbi Krauskopf has 10 times as
many applications for scholarships as
he can possibly take care of.
He has the plan by which the con-
gested districts of the cities can be re-
lieved, but he has not been able to en-
list the necessary capital; neither has
he been able to get the right kind of
teachers to carry on the work in as ex-
tensiYe a way as it deserves.
To get the teachers who can teach
from books and see sermons in stones
and brooks and bees and trees and
birds, and all the great out of doors
that needs a tongue, this is the task In
fact the rabbi has to raise his teachers.
Most educated" people are appall-
ingly ignorant You can graduate at
Harvard Yale, Princeton or Columbia
without literally knowing peas from
beans.
Theology has a thousand times as
much attention from the schools as az
riculture
When one sees what rabbi Kraus-
kOpf has done in one little corner of the
earth. and done so quietly and thor
such schools should be in every town
ship every six miles, clear across the
continent, we for the first time realize
how faulty our system of education
has been.
Rabbi Krauskopf emphasizes. espe-
cially, two things-tree planting and
road building. And if these two things
were taught in scientific way in ev-
cry high schOOl-as they surely will be
some time-many of our YeXed prob
