TALMUD TORAH ON WILKINS STREET

Aiming to give the Jewish pupils
a thorough education in Hebrew and
to make Jewish history and tradition
a part of their lives, the United Ile-
brew Schools of Detroit today rank
as the most important institutions in
the city.

Many changes have been made dur-
ing the past 30 years, from the time
when the first real class instruction
in Hebrew was tried out in Detroit,
to this day, when the United Ilebrew
Schools are showing a marked prog-
ress in the advancement of Jewish
education.

There are three up-to-date modern
schools affiliated with the United He-
brew Schools here, one on Wilkins
greet, the other two on Farnsworth
and Division streets. These schools
have an average attendance of 900
pupils, conduct daily classes in He-
brew, specializing in conversation, in
addition to the hours spent in Hebrew
reading, writing and singing.

The classes in Hebrew schools are
.conducted entirely in Hebrew, thus
making the language a living tongue
to the children.

td

On Saturdays, services are held for
the pupils from 9:30 to 10:30 a. m.
The boys and girls are taught during
the services the Hebrew prayers, the
songs being chanted in traditional and
modern music. Stories from the Bible

and Post-Biblical history are told
them during the service's. The sig-
nificative of the holidays and the Sab-
bath is taught them. Teachers at the
United schools address the children
during services.

Bernard Isaacs is superintendent
of the United Hebrew Schools. He is
assisted by a staff of some of the
ablest Hebrew educators in America.
Since the coining of Mr. Isaacs to De-
troit, in 1919, the progress made in
Hebrew education here formed one of
the most interesting chapters in the
history of Detroit Jewish achieve-
ments here.
The Talmud Torahs here are being
supported from membership dues, tu-
ition fees and contributions. The
schools recently bought a site at the
corner of Kirby and Antoine streets,
where it is planned, with the improve-
ment of financial conditions, to build
one of the finest educational renters in
the country:
The United Hebrew Schools last
year scored a great triumph for He-
brew with the presentation of the
play, "Saul and David" at the Or-
chestra Hall. The play was said to
have been the greatest achievement
of any Jewish institution of its kind
in the land. Despite the fact that the
average age of the actors was 13
years, there was hardly a flaw to be
found in the acting, language used

and the dramatic art displayed.
Mr. Isaacs, in announcing that the
play tie he presented this year, on
Mardi 5, at Orchestra Hall, will be
"Samson and Delilah," declared that
the coming production will exceed last
year's in point of success. Despite
the difficult theme chosen by Mr.
Isaacs, who wrote the play, those in
charge feel that the training given
the children has been sufficient to ex-
pect that they produce a masterpiece
in staging a Hebrew operatta.
Joseph II. Ehrlich is chairman of an
arrangements committee chosen to
take charge of the "Samson and De- Former Manager for Thomas
Doyle Made Vice-President of
lilah" production.

People are buying cars today. They are taking advantage of the present

will have profited through the economy of their present investment.
