SCHOOL NOTES
SIXTH AND SEVENTH GRADES

We are busy working on our les sons for first semester exams. We are busy on book reports also.
 Our Christmas party, Dec. l7th, in our room was adecided suc- cess. We all brought our lunch and had the treats of pop, cookies, ap- pies, candy bars with it.
 Our chalk drawings of outdoor scenes are very colorful. We en- joyed doing them.
 Billy Lencer and Tess Bronson have lief. the seventh grades for other schools. We are sorry to lose them. We wrote a Round Robin Letter" to Billy and enclosed a copy of a story Tess wrote before she left. In this story Bill was one of the main characters. We hope to write a Round Robin Letter" to Tess in the near future. From Holy Cross we have a new pupil, Dean Martin.
 HIGH SCHOOL
 Last Friday tWo-thirds of the High School students braved the elements and found their way through the terrific storm. Only the students from the remote sec tions of town were not present. The stormy day reminded us of the beautiful winter idyl written by John Greenleaf Whittier, called , Snow Bound"

 Took marvellous shapes; strange
 dOmes and towers"

 Word from Julia Silverman, a sophomore student at Stanford, states that her friends Jane Scott and Phyllis Roell met at Los An geles during the holidays and they had a wonderful time.
 Jack DoWd is training at Shep- pard Air Force Base located at Wichita Falls, Texas. IL has been very warm there. He thought the electric storms were very interest ing to observe.
 The good news that Bonnie Ann Dunbar has been elected president of the student body at her school again proves that Nome has out standing students in their midst.
 All the students are studying diligently for the semester exam nations which will be held on Thursday and Friday. Jan. 20 and .2l.

Stock said the most immediate obiec- tive before the Palmer Airport Association was the raising of about $500 to complete necessary land purchases, and getting the membership approval of a plan to transfer the airport to the territory of Alaska during it's period of construction.
 MT. Snodgrass, who heads a committee to collect the needed funds for the airport, said he felt the money needed for land purchases would be collected within the next few days.

ANGELS WITHOUT WINGS

by which they themselves wish
to be known.
Originally they were Hassidic
followers of the Lubavitcher
Rebbe. But for one reason or an
other they left that cult and ac-
quired their own ideas as to what
constitutes true Jewish piety.
They began to dress differently,
discarding ties, allowing their
boards to grow long and the ear
locks to dangle by the sides Of
their temples. But, above all,
they became outwardly distin-
guished by the fact that they
would wear their "talith katan, !"

ges of tsitsith dangling from it,

automobiles but in horsedrawn
buggies, who refuse to install
modern Improvements in their
homes, who send their children
only through eight grades of
school, who generally prefer to
live the lives of their ancestors
of three hundred years ago. The
Williamsburg "Malahim" bear a
certain resemblance to the Amish.
Their group sprang up in the
Bronx a few years ago. Their
founder, it is said, was such a
sanity type of person that people
in the neighborhood nicknamed
him "The Angel" This was how
his followers acquired the name

on the outside of their garments.
This made them immeditely con-
spicuous.
Finding the atmosphere of the
Bronx not pious enough for them,
the angels" moved to the more
hospitable Williamsburg. Upon
the death of their founder, Yaa-
GOV Shor became their leader. I
looked up Mr.. Shor--or perhaps I
should better say ''Reb Yaacov"--
when visited Williamsburg and
tried to obtain an interview. But
the "chief angel" merely shook
his head modestly, which meant
mo interview" While there I
noticed several other young men,
looking older than their age be-
cause of their boards, seated be-
fore Talmudic tones and wear
ing the "talith katans" on the out
side. Mr.. Shor himself was seat
ed with two tiny ear-locked boys
whom he was presumably in
structing in elementary Hebrew
on the style of the old-time "me-
lamed."
Many, if not most, of the can
gels" are American-born and A
merican-educated, strange as it
may seem. They attend no thea
tres, their women wear no jewel
ry-in their piety they have re-
nounced many of the pleasures Of
this modern world. Nearly all of
them are self-mystical, semi-as-
cetic group come from rather
well-to-do homes and upon join
ing the group have spurned many
of the advantages, economic and
otherwise, their prosperous par
ents could bestow upon them.
Nearly all the "Angels" are
young married folks who are OPP
posed to the practice of birth
control and therefore have many
children. They will not send
their children to any kind of
school--not even a yeshivah-par-
ochial one--but have them taught
in Hebrew and secular subjects
by private instructors who come
to their homes for this purpose.
Some of the ANGELS" I was told,
refuse to call in doctors in case
of illness--children even died be-
cause of the refusal of parents to
call physician--while the ma
jority of these angelic" parents
will send for a doctor in case of
illness, but will use only medical
men who are strict Sabbath OBJ
servers.
