And we know they will be with
US in any trial that may still lie

ism in the old rite. which bids US
begin the festival with the light
ing of one candle and continue
adding one every night up TO the

ways been so in our history.
Every great national revival had
its roots in the rededication Of a
few. So it was in the days Of Ezra

So it was at the inception Of
our present movement, VIII e n
small numbers Of pioneers, singly
and in groups, broke the path to
Zion for masses to follow in their
footsteps. A small light began to
flicker in the darkness until, with
time, it proudly grew to a flame.
The rays of that flame are there
to penetrate into every Jewish
home ready to let them in. And
it is up to all Jews to see to it
that no evil wind shall extenguish
this source of light, but that it
shall forever be kept burning.

Prentiss Tells Alumni
IAt Wilson Teachers
New Building Is Out

A building replacement pro-
gram for Wilson Teachers Col
lege. which would allow it to
inaugurate a fifth year of post
graduate work, will have to be
deferred at this time because of
budget considerations, Brig. Gen.
Louis Prentiss, Engineer Com
missioner, last night told the
schools alumni association.
In citing budget limitations,
he pointed out it would take SIS
million each to replace Wilson
and Miner teachers colleges.
Gen. Prentiss and District
Budget Officer Walter Fowler
addressed the group at its an
nual reunion in the school. Mr.
Fowler took the place of Com
missioner Renah F. Camalier
who could not attend.
Budget Limits Schools.
Gen. Prentiss particularly cited
the needs of the school system
here. pointing out the impossi-
bility of constructing badly
needed elementary and junior
high schools because of other
budget considerations.
Teachers in general, he added,
must combine the qualities
common only to angels and
teachers" He cited their need
for patience, understanding
good will and endurance.
In speaking of the service Will
son teachers can render, he
said there should be emphasis
on recruiting new people from
the high schools, with the urg-
ing that they should attend col
lege with the proper enthusiasm
to become teachers.
AS to how teachers can COM
bat juvenile delinquency, he
stressed that the teachers should
transmit to the pupils the knowl-
edge that it is their responsibility
to uphold the ethics of American
society.
Gen. Prentiss also said that
people must stress their respon-
sibility to the community as q

to exercise their basic rights and
privileges.
Salary Scale Lower Here.
When it comes to salaries for
teachers here, the speaker said
Washington scales still are be-
low those of comparable cities
but that new scales would make
for a more favorable comparison.
Mr.. Fowler, in outlining budget
ary difficulties in the way of new
school construction, explained
that the 1853 budget of $3.50 mil
lion held no margin for new con-
struction. He said there might
be trouble ahead without addi-
tional taxes.
Louis Rubin, who heads the
alumni group, presided at the
meeting. Mrs. r. H. Parker,
