Natures Children
Barn Swallow
Hirundo erythrogastra

| There are three to six white eggs
marked with dots of bright Indian
red, lavender and brown. The baby
clothes which the youngsters put
on after the downy coat, are duller
than the colors worn by their par
entS. Indeed, the babies have
sooty-black costumes with blue tints
and the forehead is brownish-
buff.
BY the time sister and brother
are grown and ready to have homes
OF their own they have foreheadS
OF chestnut. The remainder of the
upper part is a glossy, dark blue
steel, the wings and tails are dusky
with a glossy tinge of green, and
the tail feathers, except the middle
pair, have each conspicuous white

mother is dressed exactly like her
spouse, which makes it difficult TO
tell them apart
A bird some 7 inches long is easily
seen. So look out for the barn
swallow this spring as he stops en-
route from Palm Beach or other
parts south.
Some of the travellers call Alaska
home, as North America in general
is their travelling and home range.
Many who admire and are IA
mlllar with the habits of these lovely
nelghbOrS have thought their num-
berS were decreasing, since their
building sites have become so scarce.
That IS not the fact, though they
have had to move to suitable loca-
uonS tar from the average citizen.
They have jealous mean little Cou-
sins in the English sparrows, who
think nothing of destroying the mud
abodeS of the gentle barn swallows.
Indeed, these cousins are getting to
the stage where they look for these
homes so that they may use the
building materials. Cats can reach
the homes OF barn swallows and
even watch for them when they are
out hunting for food, Perhaps you
nave seen pussy Sneaking silently
behind the barn swallow, whose con-
centratlon on capturing grass moths
and other lOW-f1ying insects is so
intense as to make the barn swallow
unaware of the danger lurk-
ing behind. Then, tragedy! And a
bird song Stilled!

country there are still barns. some
with broken windows. wide rafterS
and open doors. all excellent places
for barn swallows to pitch their
tents When these are missing,
caves and places offering shelter
are used.
The nest is bowl-shaped, care
fully fastened to whatever the
builder found convenient. 1t is con-
struCted of mud pellets. These wee
bricks are mixed Skillfully with
straw and grass. The interior walls
are well padded with feathers. This
is one of the Coziest nurseries built
by bird architects. In fact. YOU
often wonder if the babies Go not
feel bit too warm at times. Still
the home is nearly always in the
shade and this does makes a differ

Christian Leaders In Florida Striving
For Fair Play For Jewish Students

Miss Myrtle Williamson, "Secre-
tary of the Florida Religious Ed
ucation Association, has notified
Rabbi Morris A. Skop, Secretary
of the Florida Rabbinical Asso-
ciation," of the organization of a
special committee to contact the
presidents and principals of col
leges and high schools, to solve a
distressing problem regarding the
absence of Jewish students from
school on their religious holy days.
Miss Williamson states, while
Christian holidays are provided
for college students in this state,
the Jewish students must either
continue their work, missing their
religious services and holy day
celebrations, or take cuts from
classes which are not excused. The
committee felt that it might be
wise to approach the presidents
of institutions, to arrange for the
Jewish students to be excused at
periods which are most important
in their religious life.
The following dates have been
suggested for Jewish students to

be officially excused this year:
For the Passover holy days,
Thursday April End and Thursday,
April 9th; for the "Shavuoth"
holy days, Friday, May 22nd.
Jewish parents throughout the
state of Florida are urged to CO.
operate with the Florida Rabbin-
ical Association and see that their
children, high school and college
students, absent themselves in or
der to attend religious services
and properly observe these Jewish
holy days!
At the forthcoming annual con-
ference of the FLORIDA Religious
Education Association" of which
Rabbi Skop is vice president, an
effort will be made to have the
Rabbits of the state give all aid
possible to this committee of
christian leaders of the state to
secure for Jewish students the Of
fetal right to be excused from
classes on their Jewish holy days.
The meeting will be held at Flor
ida Southern College in Lakeland
during April of this year.

NaZiS Plan Farley
OF European
Anti-Semites

London (JPS)-Alfred Rosen-
berg, Nazi philosopher" of anti
Semitism and Nazi Gauleiter of
occupied Russia, is planning to
call European conference of
anti-Jewish leaders in Hungary,
Rumania and Slovakia and other
lands for the purpose of first Gre
ating a new Jewish Reservation"
in Galicia and then sending the
Jews to Madagascar after the
war, in a scheme which involves
forcing American Jewry to finance
the move under the threat of an
Inhalation of the Jews concerned
if the money is not Forthcoming.
Rosenberg, recently appointed
Reich Minister in charge of Civil
Administration in the Baltic
States, will attempt to force the
American Jews to finance this
scheme under the threat that if
the money is not produced, all the
Jews involved will be destroyed,
the Poster Lloyd declares.
Without waiting for the realiza-
ton of the Rosenberg plan, the
Rumanian Government has al
ready begun to deport Jews across
the Dniester River into occupied
Soviet territory and into special
preservation" of their own.
Jews from all over Rumania are
being dumped into the "Reserva-
ton" and are left to find food for
themselves. Since the country a.
round the ghetto has been lalo
waste by the war, their chances
of survival are extremely SLIM

The news of transcending inter-

vas undoubtedly the converting of

rress at Baltimore. The cOnven-

tself as a phenomenon of a new
emerging unity and solidarity a.

lonely phrases: 49, ''little.. children
are to be seen, not heard" Yet
the fact is that South American
beWry is not a child. 1t is much
blder than North American JeWry.
South America is perhaps the one
continent of the world outside of
Asia, where Jews may say they
were there with the first tread of
the white man. The first Jews
came with Columbus, and the
matter did not stop there, for
arge numbers of Mariana Jews

hs Theodore Herz1 once said, are
almost always desperate men.
Well, Jews were a very desperate
lot in those days of 1892. They
we're in disguise, as Marranos.
That shows how desperate they
we're. Unfortunately for Jewish
history, DISCUSSES are often very
successful, so that much of the
story of the early Jewish settle
nent of South America has been
ost to us. The present writer re-
ealls one instance when he was
approached by Christian woman
from the United States who had
lived in South America for many
years, with the information that
Simon Bolivar, the liberator of
South America, was of Mariana
Pngin. 1t may easily have been

There was one South American

A few silversmiths, among a COM

the old tradition. Some fine glass is
being blown and decorated. Some
really good china and porcelain is
being fired. But, unfortunately, most
of the individualistic efforts are
painfully if not desperately studied
attempts to create an immediate

rarity, snobbish appeal, price . .
all these are played up to create the
aura of quality the makers imagine
