give their services for the meager
compensation they formerly &C
cepted. Small communities,
therefore, simply cannot afford to
enjoy the benefit of rabbits min
istrations; and even larger con-
gregations that can raise suffi-
cient funds to meet the necessary
financial obligations find it diff
cult to fill vacant pulpits.
Something must be done, and
that quickly, too, to solve the
problem of the rabbi-less COM
munity, if a generation entirely
estranged from Judaism is not to
follow the present one. The ma
tional organizations interested in
the synagog and it's work must
get together, create and provide
for the office of circuit-rabbi, as
signing to such a functionary a
number of neighboring small
communities that he is to visit
each week in turn and in which he
is to discharge the customary rab-
binical duties.
Young graduates should be the
first choice for such posts. 1t
would be an excellent course of
apprenticeship for them. Some
may prefer to remain indefinitely
in such field. Some may find
themselves better qualified for it
than for the exclusive service in
one community with it's more in
innate associations between
shepherd and flock. At any rate,
it will give many small struggling
communities the opportunity Of
receiving the religious min1stra-
ton of which they are greatly in
need. 1t will bring back many
stray families into Israel's fold.
