THE J.. w. B.. TRAINS SCORE OF
WELFARE WORKERS EVERY
MONTH.
August 80, 1918.

The ninth class of the Training School
OF the Jewish Welfare Board closes it's
session this week with twenty-five men
in attendance. These men have come
from all sections of the country and rep
resent every phase of Jewish life in
America.
The course given in the school ex-
tends over period of four weeks and
provides the student with a background
covering the religious, historical, social
and cultural phases of Jewish life, With
special emphasis on their relation to the
Jewish soldiers in camp. An attempt
is made to familiarize them with the
various groups to be found in American
Israel, the reform group, the orthodox,
the conservative, the non-religious Jews,
the radical type and other elements of
Jewry, so that, when the Welfare Work
ers reach the camps they may be in a
position to distinguish these various
types and to serve their needs.
A special course is given on the differ
ent theories of AUGMENTATION and as
similation in vogue This course empha-
sizes the point of view Of the immigrant,
so that proper regard may be had for
his mode of life and his culture In
this way, it will be possible for the We'll
fare Worker to help fuse the views of
the immigrant with the view of the
American. The Workers are instructed
in the methods of teaching English,
Civics and other branches to foreigners
who, because of their lack of know1-
edge of the English language, have diff
ficulty in understanding orders and other
rules in connection with army life.
Some time is devoted to lectures on the
Jewish attitudes toward war and peace.
In these lectures, it is shown that both
the Bible and the Prophets look upon
war as justifiable when waged in defense
of the principles of democracy and So
cia1 justice.
In the practical part of the course,
lectures are given on army rules and
ethics and on naval rules and etiquette.
The relation of the Jewish Welfare
Board to the military organizations and
to the other welfare agencies is explained.
A lecture is given on the subject of So
cial hygiene in which the problem of
keeping the souls of our men pure is
put before the class.
After two weeks of lectures, the men
are sent to the camps in the vicinity
of New York where they get their prac-
tical field training and have an oppor-
tunity to apply the principles they have
learned in the Training School. The last
week of the course is devoted to dis
cussion of camp and community organi-
cation and technique of the Jewish We'll
fare Board. In this part of the course
are included such subjects as the prob
lem of personal judgment, education
and religious activities, social and re-
creationa1 work and similar topics that
will confront the worker after he is as
signed to a camp.
More than two hundred students have
been graduated from this school. This
number is not sufficient to meet the de-
