AS l make the rounds of this

many parents are disturbed that

The Optimists Club of Whea-

16.
Rather than just hold a private
affair, they've decided to cele-
brate the anniversary of their
club by holding a Barn Dance at
the Agricultural Center in Cath
ersburg on Saturday Apr. 16 to
raise money to aid their project
of helping boys in this area.
The tab will be SIPS stag or
So per couple.
The aim of the Optimists at
the moment is to raise enough
money so that they can have
their own bus to take the young
sters of Wheaton Glenmont to the
S. E. Boys Club Wednesday night
swimming group.
If any boy can't afford to go,
his dues is paid by the Optim-
lists.
This is very worthwhile pro-
ject and deserves everyone's sup
port. What's more you are sure
to have a good time.
Many of the active Optimists
who are giving their all towards
making this a success are Ted

Whoever said that people
usually sit around airing their
"gripes" and do nothing about
them, certainly could not have
lived in the Wheaton-Glenmont

More and more people are be-
coming aware of the responsible
ties of being property owners"
and are determined to lend their
voices in support of the services
they want for this growing area.
From the turnout for the or
ganization of the Pleasantview-

that was held last week, the
county officials better be pre-
pared for the growing list of i'm

More than "a people were on

ture that has been facing this
large unrepresented triangle for
the past few years. These were:

bus transportation for the school
children and the necessary stop
signs at certain intersections"

Soviet Reflections

Isaac Babel was one of Soviet
Russia's most gifted writer's :.
However, he disappeared" after
two volumes of his short stories
had been published This,
despite the fact that he was a
fighter in Soviet Russia's first
armed units and wonderfully de-
scribed his experiences at the
front with Marshall Budenny's
cavalry in the Red Army cam
paign against Poland in 1920 :.
Many of his short stories deal
with Jewish life under the So
viets and are considered literary
gems They provoked a good
deal of attention in this country
when they appeared in English
translation several years ago,
published by Schoken Books {. :.
Now Criterion Publishers has
issued a volume of Babel's COL
lected short stories, immortaliz-
ing the great Russian-Jewish
author whose name is taboo in
his native land "The Collect
ed Stories" by Babel are prefaced
with an introduction by Lionel
thrilling who says that the author
died in a Soviet concentration
camp There is no question
that some of the short stories he
published were on con d
thought-disliked by the Soviet
rulers . They are written with
the kind of irony which was still
permitted in the early years Of
the Soviet revolution, but was
not tolerated later They are
also more on the humane side
rather than on the conventional
propaganda side with which the
Soviet literature of today is &C.

PLAIN TALK


house, papa shook that canister of
sweet spices and filled the room
with their fragrance. We under
stood it meant the sweet, good
week ahead that was hoped for.
This also was of the Sabbath
practice of our friends and neigh
bors. There was nothing solemn
about our Shabbos. though. Papa
and mama relaxed pleasantly and
we kids played as usual. We had
the idea that gentle playing was
of the ordinance of God. but no
rough stuff was allowed.
But now-what's become of the
Sabbath of old? Shabbos now is
a busy day for many a papa and
mama. Papa has to be at his bust
ness place and mama needs to go
shopping. No time for the peace
and contentment of old Sabbath
days.
The schul isn't crowded: the
worshippers are for the most part
the old or elderly who have re-
manned faithful to the Sabbath
habit from their youth. In Reform
temples the Sabbath worshippers
are. in the main women-elderlY
widows who come TO recite the
Kaddish for their husbands.
1 remember: Years ago I was a
member of the board of a Reform
temple. The board was feeling
troubled because so few men
came to Sabbath service; often
there was not a man to assist the
rabbi in the reading of the Torah,
to carry the scroll, to say the
blessings.
The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1955-08-19

So the temple board voted to
draft its members to go to temple
on the Sabbath. to be of help TO
the rabbi. For each Sabbath two
board members were chosen to be
in temple.
That's the way it goes these
days. I recall a column / wrote
back in the sos. In that period
the five-day work week was COM
ing into practice and in my col
umn l took up the role of prophet:
I said the five-day week may
mean that more and more Jews
would be going to schul on the
Sabbath.
Well. since that time the five
day week has become almost uni
versal-with Saturday off for
manY-but has Sabbath attend
ance increased in the synagogue
much if any. The one who's off
on Saturday observes the day by
sleeping later; by the time he is
out of bed and has had his break
fast. it's too late for synagogue.
So my prophecy was wrong
which goes to show what I said
earlier in this column: That a
columnist really doesn't know
everything.
And now it is being proposed
that Sunday, instead of Saturday,
be established as the Jewish Sab
bath, and would that work?
Would the papas be up on time
for synagogue service on Sunday?
Sunday is the traditional day for
sleeping late. Out of bed, finally,
papa may think of going to the
golf course, or he has to read the
Sunday paper which has some
thing like rs pages to be read, or
there's the temptation of long
drive out into the country.
What. then about Sunday in.
stead of Saturday? AS one who
fell down in his prophetic utter.
ance on the five-daY week i'm
proving Sabbath attendance. I
hesitate TO hand down a positive
answer to the question: Should
the Jewish Sabbath be on Sunday
instead of. Saturday?
l should add that the Christian
churches nowadays are worried in
the same way; How to bring peo-
pie out to services on their Sab
bath? Oh, the happy Shabbos days
when / was so young!

an optomi st and genuinely believe what
is taught will be worth while and neces-
sary to bring about the fulftllment Of
the "Great American Dream"--a lasting
peace in the world. An optomi stio view
point is the thing to heed.
Four educ ationa1 values brought out
in this key speech were IL all indivi-
duals are worthy individually; (2) equal
tty Of opportunity through education,
50 cooperation nece ssary in solving pro-
blems with self-di sc ipli ns the ultimate
aim and goal, and, (4) reason must be
used rather than emotion in solving pro-
blems.

Representative Bonner, North

rather than the birds. He was
not satisfied with a general
statement that some 10 per cent
of the Federal Fish and Wildlife

the rest for various phases of
the program, mostly mainte-

How many of their people are

to see that more of the money
goes for protection of the birds
than for cushy jobs of people in

officials. 1t will decide later
whether to put its approval on
