Partners In
Judaism
By Arthur Weyne

In the past year it has been
borne in on us with increasing
force that American Jewry, Gull
turally speaking, is ION its own.
We can look neither to Europe,
whose Jewish community is a
pathetic remnant of what it
once was, nor to Israel, desper-
ately engaged in bringing order
out of its pressureS and para
doXes, for spiritual sustenance
and cultural creativity. Those in
diSpensable ingredients for a
rounded, wholesome, civilized,
vital life we, American Jewry.
must develop for ourselves.
How are we set up for the
task? Plainly, the situation calls
for an appraisal of our resources
and a look at existing practices.
There are three major insti-
tutions functioning here in the
realm of Jewish spiritual and Gull
tural endeavorS: the synagogue,
the Jewish Community Center,
and the Jewish school. All are
engaged in the effort to elevate
the quality of Jewish living in
this country and have proved
mutually helpful to one another.
The trend toward synagogue
center-education agency cooper
alton is at present we'll under
way, with indications for an in
creasing joint effort and future
growth.
The catalogue of that cooper
alton the concrete examples,
the specific forms it has taken in
communities all over America -
is interesting and impressive.
Synagogues have made their
facilities available for Jewish
Community Center programs;
Centerss have served synagogues
in group work aspects of the
latters' programs; synagogues and
Jewish education units have act
lively participated in community
wide Jewish cultural projects
initiated by Centers.

Southeast iadassah President
Issues Rosh Hashonah Messaue
BY Mrs. J. L. wiIensky. Savannah, GEORGIA

Until Israel is on it's feet, we
must continue to give them a
helping hand. This is the year
when Israel is to redeem it's
promise to those who have wait
ed so long to come home. We
must help in the peacetime Job
OF gathering in the exiles". This
is the year when Hadassah must
continue to make her name sy-
nomomous with brotherhood and
service. For 38 years Hadassah's
name has been blessed in the
land with her hospitals, welfare
stations, schools, land reclama-
ton, and recreation. We stood
beside the brave Israelis as they
struggled SO heroicly to build
their state.
And now today, while the
sound of the ancient horn, the
Shofar, summons us to write a
new page, we shall meet the
challenge. Our healing hand
shall continue as shall the nour-
iShment of their bodies and
minds. This year, part of the
new challenge is to see that a
modern hospital shall rise on the
desert sands of the Negev, and
the great school of medicine, al
ready begun, shall be brought
to completion. HadasSah shall
inscribe her page of glory in
this unWritten chapter of Is
raers redemption.

Precedent demands that a
,,essage for the New Year be one
# resolution. However, we of
padassah have been resolved
FIR 80 years and through many
|,pemingly impossible tasks to
achieve an ideal, conceived by
arr beloved founder, Henrietta
Sold. We need no resolutions;
rather, let us here on this Rosh
Hashonah of $40 pause only to
saze upon our glorious purpose
and pray for the strength and
wisdom to carry on our tasks,
20 that little Israel shall be a
shining example of democracy
for the entire world.
We have been privileged. to
witness Israers rebirth, and have
played our part in that miracle.
