a DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE and the Legal eh.onicle JEWISH CENTER HOLDS Membership Tea of Loyal Judaism, Like Loyal Americanism, Demands Knowledge of People's History ART WEEK EXHIBITION J. N. F. Ladies Dec. 10 A Message on the Occasion of Annual Education Month of United Hebrew Schools By DR. LEO M. FRANKLIN Rabbi of Temple Beth El If ever there was a time when we were sorely in need of an informed Jewry, it is today. In a time when it is tremendously es- sential that the Jew should feel a proper sense of dignity in being a Jew, it is self-evident that a background of knowledge of his own past is indispensable — the knowledge of the part that the Jew has played in history that can give to our adult generation as well as to our youth that proper pride which we should have when we are assailed by those who would destroy us. The citizen of this Republic who is wholly ignorant of American his- tory can scarcely become a patriot in the best sense of the term, but it is equally true that the Jew who is uninformed about Judaism is not likely to be a loyal and self-respecting Jew. Religious edu- cation, therefore, is one of our first defense lines. That line we should strengthen at every point and in every way that is human- ly possible. The deeds of charity we have done shall stay with us forever. Only the wealth we have be- stowed do we keep; the other is not ours.—Middleton. 1=10==0= 0=10=0 =0=0 rtirraucRS esair 0 FREDSON'S g KOSHER Restaurant and Dining Room "Catering to Showers is Parties" O 12017 DEXTER BLVD.
