In the beginning, the Federation did not own its own camp and the campsites for Camp JCC, as it was called, were rented from other organizations around the state. There was, however, a problem created by this situation: having to rent different facilities in different locations many times forced the Federation's camping season to begin a bit short on preparatioi and, sometimes, even with uncertain camplngdates.,,, , But the Federation wanted a camp program each year and, despite the fruitless efforts of the campsite search commltteeI.

Both were elderly at the time and wanted the security of remaining on their property and knowing that their son, who has health problems, would be taken care of always. They agreed to receive $200 per month from the Federation as long as both parents were alive, and $150 per month thereafter, until the death of the surviving parent and the son. They also made the agreement to live in their home on the Camp property, rent free. The federation maintains the home. .The Federation also agreed to preserve the use of the traditional name of the land, "Folkslure," In all printed materials. Two other provisions were made: that the Unlays may use the camp land for their annual picnic when family and friends come from all over, and that the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts from the Louisville area may use the site, rent free. Many people, it appears, tie together their love of land and love of children, and agree that camping is a perfect and fitting tribute to memorialize loved ones while providing for the health and happiness of future generations, j Bob Newman expressed these feelings when he discussed how the Newman family settled on the Camp as a memorial to his mother, Esther K. And Ernie Nogg pointed out that the camp cabins and large buildings, lodges and staff cabins were ail donated to the camp in the early 1960s as memorials or honoraria to loved ones. . So by the Spring, 1961, the Jewish Federation of Omaha was on its way to building its own camp on a beautiful tract of land southwest of Omaha. Nogg was ready to turn over the chairmanship to someone else, but he was pressed to see the camp through the building phase. Much time and care was devoted to the design of the site. Local architect Alex Wemstein, together with a camp-planning consultant firm, laid out the cabin and land-use plans according to the most current, best information available In camp design.

Thus, these are days of "counting" represented by the Old Testament from any one Hebrew word for counting. I.e., "Selirah." of the gospels of Matthew, QUESTION: Why Is this counting practice required? ANSWER: Actually, the holiday ol Shavuot Is the only one ol the Mark, Luke and John. Jesus was tbe event which permajor holidays listed In the Bible without a date. Tbe Bible simply refers to this holiday as the one occurring 50 days after Passover, Its date being sonified and encapsulated arrived at by counting the number ol days between each of the two God's saving plan In prople, festivals Many claim that this Indicates the Indlspenslbility of each of places and events of Jewish these two festivals to each other. history. Passover Is the festival of freedom which commemorates the exodus Wben I was a child, a of the Jews from Egypt.

world views. If something is true it is universally true and can stand the test of a variety of Interpretations. This Is what I think Catholic really means. I reject, however, tbe Implication that an Interpretation of the truth, divorced from its historical origins, is the truth. As a Catholic, I believe that Jesus Christ is tbe Son of God and that his resurrection does verify his divinity. But the point is, this is not the whole truth of Easter. And while the divine sonship of Jesus Is tbe key to my celebration of Easter, I must see divine sonship not in terms o f . a Greek-Roman category, but In terms of a tremendous Godfilled historical event giving meaning to my whole life. Here, then, Is where I must be Jewish. Easter for me is not merely a philosophic proof. Easter Is Passover. E a s t e r offers me tbe possibility of freedom, a lifetime Exodus from tbe slavery of brokeness to freedom In my union with God and unity with my brothers. Tbe 40-year Passover of tbe Jewish people under Hoses hi tbe wilderness, wben they, were transformed Into a truly free people of God ready for a new life In a new land, means so much to me.

There are over 100,000 large immigrant families in Israel—like the MustakU from North Africa—many of them living a marginal existence of economic, educational and social deprivation. ' . .

"The great in-gathering of the exiles brought to Israel vast numbers of Jews who had lived for centuries in the mellahs of ' Casablanca and Baghdad/the desert regionsof Yemen and the primitive villages 6f the Atlas Mountains. These Sephardim ^Asian and North African Jews-came to 1 a country almost totallyiacking in natural resources, with little arable land, very little housing, very little industry, and the barest .beginnings of public services such as education and health. In the last generation, much progress has been made. But as ^recently as 1972, nearly a fourth of all Israelis born in Asia or Africa had no formal education at all. l a August, 1973, the Jewish Agedcy created a four-year program to reduce the •social and economic differences between

European immigrants and those of North African and Asian ancestry. Any progress that could have been made was stopped, abruptly, by'the YomKippur War.Today, one-of the top priorities in Israel is the closing of that "social gap". For the inequities in standards of living and achievement that exist between the people of Israel pose an increasing threat to the strength and cohesiveness of their society.

Today, Nate and his wife have a sizable retail and wholesale meat business. "You can still do business in k o s h e r m e a t and a t reasonable prices. Hie actual cost of kosher meat is not that much, and in kosher, we trim , the meat a lot better," says Nate. "But you got to want to do volume. I've got customers scattered out over the country," he says — from Chevy Chase, Md., to San Jose, Calif., from Austin, Tex., to Portland, Ore. One group in .Texas formed a cooperative to buy meat, calling itself the "Kosher. Nostra." -. "I know personally about five percent of my customers and yet I don't think I've lost but once on these orders — about $500 in a deal with a kosher restaurant in New Orleans that folded up." It's a business hit family helped him build — not only

Nate gets orders two months before Passover. But, he notesj "So many don't keep kosher anymore, even though they get dollar for dollar on value and quality... It's not a status thing to keep kosher anymore. I've got a feeling a lot of them light the Shabbos candles and then eat pork roast or something. "The religious leaders never came out and fought it. Had they stood up and taken a stand, it would have stemmed the tide." Locally, be said, only "young students from the east" are his new customers, not kids from the midwest. However, he notes, some,, children today are more observant than their parents, which gives him hope.
