Free Use of Cify Dump Stressed

Attention was drawn to the
 free use of the City of Palmer dump, located just this side of the Matanuska River bridge. The free use of the dump ap- plles to everyone, regardless of where they live, Acting Mayor Betty Mears pointed out. Her reminder of this fact was made necessary by the frequent com plaints of rubbish being thrown on the highway and by-roads throughout the area. Anyone throwing rubbish along the highway is subject to prescott tion. A campaign was recent ly started throughout Alaska to keep our highways clean" and the earnest cooperation of all persons is asked.

"But early in October we re-
ceived a letter from the president
of the Police Boys Club inform
ing US that their board of direc-
tors had decided to continue the
policy of segregation" DR.. Da-
vies said.
He referred to a unanimous
vote by the clubs directors on
October 4 that "the best inter-
ests of the $4,000 members would
be best served by continuing
segregation"
No. 10 Police Boys Club has
1900 members. with an average
weekly attendance of 1.400.
The question of integration
was brought to deciding point

gated basis.

grafton" be conducted by the
No. 10 Club.
"If this cannot be DONE" he
said, I'VE will have no alterna-
tive but to serve notice of ter

The sameness in Jewish communities
in the South lies in the fact that each one
is unique" :. If this be true (and dis
cussions at conventions of Jewish organ
izations will reveal that it isl then by the
same Toxic the Jewish community OF
FITZGERALD, Georgia, is the most typical
of Jewish congregations because it is so
unusual
At an examination of the facts this
statement proves anything but a contra
diction, for it demonstrates the deter
mination of the Jews to preserve their
faith no matter what abnormalities must

to be the concluding figure on a
series of talks which high-lighted
the development of the Jewish
child 1t was during Anne's
term, too, that the new school
rooms were built by the congre-
CATION, and are being furnished
by the Sisterhood -.
Where Anne steps out Helen
(Mrs.) Sam Halperin of McRae
steps in as new president, and l
am sure that with her poise and
well-ordered method of doing
things she will see the refinlshlng
program carried on to its compile
ton, and set the Sisterhood on its
way to further projects
These two women aid both con-
gregations to the hilt Helen
is the daughter-in-law of Philip
Halperin, founder of the con-
gregation and a pioneer in these
parts Anne is the wife OF the
congregations president, Dick
Kaminsky, who although OF a
younger generation also was one
of the founding fathers of the
congregation, and under whose
administration these mortgage
free additions to the building have
been constructed
In Fitzgerald Anne and Dick
are 'Mr. and Mrs. Congregation"
plan to do other articles on
these men and others of this con-
gregation at a later date, for l
believe that they represent a por-
ton of Judaica Americana as do
their women, but this column is
the ladies domain, and as l muse
over the memories of a most de-
lightful and completely charming
visit, it is the female associations
which jump into prominence :.
Due to Anne Kaminsky's hos
pitality was able to meet the
ladies on an informal and friendly
basis =. 1t was at Anne's break
fast" that really had an oppor-
tunity to speak with the rebbizin,
attractive Bea Kohen, who is the
mother of a five-year-old girl,
teaches Sunday School, directs
the School plays, and served as
program chairman of the Sister
hood last year i.
was also able to have a few
more amusing moments with
Rose Tatle, who is not unduly
known as the best cook in town

the dinner for the meeting the
night before, and was gracious

a delicious rice dish. ] neglected
to ask permission to publish the
recipe, but, if ! know Rose, she
will consider it her mitzvah that
you can enjoy it too . =.
Feeding the congregation seems
to be one of the duties of the
Sisterhood and everyone pitches
in to help On Sunday after
noon when the children come to
religious school the Sisterhood
holds its meetings the B'nai
Birth meets and then everyone
sits down to dinner, the cost of
which is included in the yearly
congregational dues
Judging from the Wednesday
night event these dinners are
friendly affairs My visit with
the congregation gave me the op-
portunity to meet old friends also
There was Helen Harris nee
Landy and the Bob Felsons with
their two lovely daughters, who
are all well known to Jaxons g.

And Mother (Mrs. M. A. Harris
stopped to talk for a moment to
speak of the family beginning
many years ago in Baltimore +. .
Abe Kruger came over to say
'hello" in his usual jovial man.
ner Abe is a pioneer in Fitz-
gerald, and the synagogue's dedi-
cation plaque carries his name as
one of its originators. He is one
whose vision not only built the
synagogue but the town of F'itz-
gerald as we'll
1t was nice to speak with an
other reader, Martin Gottlieb,
who asked to be remembered to
the Isenberg family here u.
1t was an evening I shall long
remember When Anne and
Dick Kaminsky invited us to their
very beautifully appointed home,
l was able to laugh a little at her
apology for the informality of the
meeting It may be little
hard for her and the others to
understand, but what they have
as a natural outcome of their
circumstances is that for which
the organizations of the larger
communities strive, but very sell
dom attain :. Our sisters in Fitz-
gerald and the other small COM
munities will never fully under
stand how often a board meet
ing is dominated by the question:
how can we bring warmth into
our meetings?
Sometimes this thing called
formality in the larger communi-
ties manages to strike at the very
roots of that which we are trying
to uphold. Sometimes we cannot
discern the loss because of the
glare of these same numbers
It seems to me that such con-
gregationS as Fitzgerald demon

be sustained in order to do so .
Artists use abnormalities to OBJ
tain dramatic interpretations . .
When. individuals overcome them
it heightens character :. When a
community surmountS them it
achieves greatness with all of its
character It is no doubt for
this reason that the congregation
of Fitzgerald has been sited upon
several occasions at n al On a l
gatherings.
Actually its greatest achieve
ment is in existing at all, for
there are only six families in all
of Fitzgerald Neighboring
Ocilla which is nine miles away
has four families Together
they have a minyin, so what
could be more simple than build
ing synagogue which is today air
conditioned, and which boasts four
new school rooms, an auditorium
annex, and a charming synagogue
with a wood-panneled Grin Ko-
desh like the best of them? {.
In Fitzgerald they are surprised
that anyone is surprised -.
Of course the secret of it all
lies in the fact that the member
ship Of the congregation comes
from within a radius of hun
dred miles of the synagogue :.
This is supposedly an easy mat
ter; although, the leadership will
admit that conducting a drive of
any kind has it's difficulties be-
cause of the travelling distance
:, How many members are
there? =. Approximately 70 . {.
I had the opportunity of meet
ing this congregation last Wed
neSday night when was asked
to make an address at the closing
meeting of the Sisterhood, but
who can be commanding about
the duties of Jewish womanhood
when you know of several who
will wind their way home alone
at midnight over a stretch of
forty or fifty miles of Georgia
road for the sake of attending a
Sisterhood meeting! =.
The meeting which was started
by dinner was presided over by
Anne (Mrs. Dick) Kaminsky who
was my most gracious hostess
during my two days in Fitzgerald
:. Anne was outgoing president
and this. was her final business
session It was the first year a
concentrated cultural program
was introduced to the Sisterhood
agenda; and I was deeply honored
