The most comprehensive program encountered in the survey was at a yeshiva which introduced the subject in the seventh grade, with classes of boys and girls meeting separately once a week for a half-year term. The children are provided with textbooks and taught about the physiology of the sexes, the reproductive processes in animals and humans, homosexuality and masturbation.

Most of us (jive little conscious thought to "philosophy." It has a bookish, academic sound. We're more like the two tea-drinkers, famed in Yiddish liumor. As he sipped his tea. one It-iiiaikfd, "Lift* i.s like a glass of .tea." "How. is life like a gljiss of tea?" asked his drinking companion, '"How should I know," was the reply, "Am I a philosopher?" Yet, if we were required to move to another country to resettle, we would be mighty careful to avoid those with a way of life opposed to what we believe. I dare say we would seek a land where they respected difference, respected the individual, equality under the law, freedom of expression, thought and worship, and all of the elements of democracy expressed in our American Bill of nights and in our Jewish tradition. We would, I think avoid nations that practice discrimination, that avort the free practice of religion, that subordinate the rights and dignity of Hie individual. Wo might explain our thinking and decision by saying, "We don't believe in their way of life." We might say, "We couldn't live that way." We might add, "We wouldn't want our children to grow up in such an atmosphere." How ever we worded it, we Would be expressing the conviction that the climate of a nation, of a community, of a home- of a camp—is based upon a set of beliefs and values that define and describe the nature of life in that setting, what is accented and what is not. We would be acknowledging that just living in a place influences how we grow and develop, and that, therefore, it is most important for a parent to know what thinking and values and beliefs—in a word, philosophy—a camp subscribes to and really practices, if we ore to make a wise choice for the benefit of our children and youth. I DARE SAY we can assume tticlfc Bn £uiiipS GptrriitlilK' in llltt

United States believe "in the democratic way of life. To what degree they bring democratic influences into the lives of their campers depends on other supplementary elements of their philosophy. For example, •srhcrc do they stand on discrimination? Where do they draw the line on competition as a motivation gimmick? What role do the campers t h e m s e l v e s have in the selection and planning of program? How do camps recognize progress and achievement? And so on. It would seem unnecessary to mention that camps serving Jewish children should be committed to Judaism as a fundamental element in their philosophy. But our camps do differ in the way and degree of their implementation of it. Whether you are seeking a day camp or an overnight (resident) camp, whether it is a p r i v a t e or agency-sponsored camp, it is important to satisfy yourself about the philosophy which sparks its goals, determines the kind of staff it employs, the kind of training and supervision it gives, the kind of •trnosphere in which your children wilt live.

Camp Registration Application —1!)67 Season KSTKKR If. WKV.7.TAN CAMP 101 North 20th, Omaha, IS'ebr. Camper's Name .. The purpose of the Esther K. Newman Camp sponsored by the Omaha Jewish Federation is to offer boys and girls a happy, helpful, supervised experience in group living. The camp was developed in the belief that it is possible for children to have freedom without license, control without domination, leisure'without laziness, and challenge and excitement without over-fatigue. The camp has proven that children develop most, work hardest and find greatest satisfaction and growth in an environment which is relaxed, yet orderly and consistent. Boys and girls at camp are together at specific times. There are many other activities wnich are completely separate. Activities at the camp include athletics, water sports, camping skills, dramatic arts, to name a few. The setting however, provides a very, normal life situation having both boys and girls living at reasonable distances from each other. They see each other, participate in such programs as lend themselves to coed activities such as dramatics, newspaper, Hebrew and other evening activities. . i In our complex oociety of today, this kind of Hying experiences better prepares our children' for social and emotional growth. As" these youngsters go on to college, they are given a more advantageous position for accepting the responsibilities expected of them.

A director of a summer program in which Linda worked has this to say about her: "Linda has a wonderful attitude toward people and a fine philosophy of life. I have much admiration for her.

KSTHKK K. NEWMAN CAMP. COUNSELOR'S CKKKW BELIEVE . . . that all children should have an opportunity to live in the out-of-doors; to cook out; sleep out, "pioneer" and "conquer*1 the wilderness: to catch a toad and find they don't get warts; to catch, clean, cook and eat a •fish: to sit with a "pa!"' around a fire as night closes in, to defy the elements, to paddle a canoe, to vision tomorrow from the top of a. hill, and hear the sounds and symphony of the woods, . . . to know what it' means to live comfortably in a group, and feel the glow of friendship and fellowship; to be wanted and needed, and share, cooperate and give as well as receive. BELIEVE that youth should know more about his natural surrountiings and the interrelationship of all living things; see wild life in its natural habitat; wonder at the marvels of creation and find fun in the simple way of life, live in an atmosphere free from pressures and tensions, climb a tree and build a tree house, hut or fort. BELIEVE . . . a child should know good communication and a relationship with an adult who can be idealized, admired and respected; who has the time to be helpful, patient and understanding: who will help him find excel lence in skill and confidence through accomplishments, who recognizes him as an individual in a world of con formists; who will grant the freedom to experiment, to make decisions, for who can resolve big problems without experience in solving little ones. BELIEVE . . . that happy, carefree days are a heritage of youth, as is the right to worship; and that through normal growth and such association will come lastinj: faith in one's scif, country and God. • , BELIEVE . , . that a camp provides the unique setlinj', the ideal locale for all these things to be accomplished-and that all arc possible in the Esther K. Newman Camp program-So, I BELIEVE IN CAMPING.

It is^true that Purim is not a m a j o r holiday, but neither is Chanuka, Tu B'Shvat. Tish B'Av or the middle of Passover and Sukkot. However this does not mean thai they have no relevance. It would interest me to knowhow many of t h o s e who an swered the question were in the synagogue the Sabbath before Purim when we are told to remember the crime of Ainnlek. who, according to tradition, was Hainan's ancestor. Tlip name ni Hitler could all too easily he substituted lor A m a l e 1;, anil then majlif the problems nf Anti-Semitism raised by 1'iirim would lake on more relevance. How *,ar> we belittle the importance of Purim to the AntiSemitic problems today when there are bigots in America like Gus Hall, George Lincoln Rockwell, Robert Shelton and Robert Welch? How can we disregard the message of Purim when millions of our fellow Jews in Russia are the victims of u spiritual genocide? I wonder how many of those who answered the question have ever read completely the book of Esther. Even if they regard it as nothing more than a myth, no one can deny thut it's one ol the world's greatest literary works. Had those who answered the question done some of the suggested things, then I could respect their answers: however I can't respect their a n s w e r s when they stopped looking for a meaning in Purim as soon as they became too old for greggcrs and costumes. Of course there are in a n y more important things in Judaism than Purim. just as there are more important things in life than good music and art. On the other hand, just as we'd say that there is something missing from the person who has not enjoyed fine music and art. we'd have to say that there's something missing from the Jew who hasn't tried to find a meaning in Purim.

The program t h a t was set up at my synagogue exposed the students to four years of concentrated study oi the rending.ami writing of Hebrew. The remaining .time was used to try to instill an appreciation of Jewish holidays and customs. Around my graduation year there were quite a few students who dropped out. The question is—why? Perhaps the teachers taught us everything fundamental, but failed to instill in us a desire to continue learning. The purpose of this column is to get the reactions of teenagers to whatever educational program they were exposed. What, if anything, do you feel wan lucking In your Jewish edu- , cation?

I think I regarded them (us most children do) merely as an inconvenient interruption of my playtime. Because I was not willing to learn of Judaism as a child however, does not mean that I will not try to understand my religion now. Hebrew school is not the only means of securing a Jewish education, and anyone who wishes to. can compensate for their "lack." ri

holding his head in his hands, staring at his desk, and not saying a word." To cheer up his co-worker, he sat down and spontaneously penned a five paragraph note. When Mr. Grogan read it, he immediately recognized its extraordinary quality and insisted that it be submitted to the paper for publication. liirth of an Editorial That was the origin of an editorial so moving and eloquent that it lias since been picked up by editors from Maine to California who hailed it as "The Editorial of the Decade." Mr. Aiken recently received an award from the Young Judean Lodge of Trenton, where the ediloral was published in a daily newspaper and by the local iinglo-Jewish press. When >t appeared, readers insisted on learning more about the writer, and Mr. Aiken was traced to Seattle, where he now lives. In describing how he wrote the piece, Mr. Aiken said he hadn't planned it for publication, merely as a letter to a friend, to let him know he didn't have to"go home" that he was home. It was, he said, "purely an emotional thing." Mr. Aiken's celebrated editorial follows: *

"\ REPLY TO SCRAWLERS" "Jews go Home"—Well now, this is nothing new. Never in the past have you ever taken this gentle suggestion to move on. But Heaven forbid, suppose just this once, you thought that expression of a few sick people actually expressed the conviction of all the people in this wonderful land of ours, and all of you started to pack your bags and leave for parts unknown. Just before you leave, would you do me a favor? Would you leave your formula for the Salk Vaccine with me before you leave? You wouldn't be so heartless as to let my children contract polio? And would you please leave your knack for government, and politics and persuasion and literature and good food, and fun and love, and all those things, and would you please leave me the secret of your drive to succeed? And please, have pity on us, please show us the secret of how to develop such geniuses as Einstein and Stemmed and oh so many others, who have helped us all. After all, we owe , you most of the A-Bomb, most of our rocket research and perhaps the fact that we are alive today, instead of looking up from our chains and from our graves to see an aging, happy Hitler drive slowly by in one of our Cadillacs. On your way, Jews, will you do me just one more favor? Will you please drive by my house and pick me up too? I'm just not sure I could live too well in a land where you weren't around to give as much as you have given to us. If you ever have to leave, love goes with you, democracy goes with you, everything I and all my buddies fought for in World War IT goes-with you; God goes with you. Just pull up in front of my house, slow down and honk, because, so help me, I'm going with you, too." • * * * .; , • As I said before—who can get inspired by swastika smearings.

You know, in golf, follow-through often makes the difference between a good player and a duffer. This is just as true with insurance as in. golf. As an Insurance Counselor I have the independent status, train* ing and experience to give all your insurance matters complete followthrough, whether it's estate planning, pension or profit sharing, com* mercial or personal insurance.
