ments is still unsettled. Groups
and individuals dream of the
day when the communal form
of society can afford to release
their artists from the daily
grind. But life in the settle-
ments is far less exacting than
it was thirty years ago, as evi-
denced by this array of pictures,
the work of "farmer-artists".
In the afternoon there is a
trek to the cemetery. More mem-
ories and looking backward.
It is evening. The last visit-
ors • have arrived. There are
about 1,500r guests in addition
to the Merhavia-ites. The chil-
dren are allowed to stay up on
this memorable night—even the
tots whose eyelids site drooping:
Arabs have come from the neigh-
boring village to join in the joy
of the occasion. Even the spac-
ious new dining hall cannot ac-
commodate the crowds. The hon-
ored old-timers
are
seated
around white-covered tables,
creaking with decorated cakes
and sandwiches — the "first
fruits" of their new kitchen.
Hundreds stand outside and peer
through the windows. A group
suddenly breaks into a spontan-
eous "bora".
Mrehavia is thirty, years old.
It is good to look backwards. It
is good to take stock. It is good
to see the eucalyptus trees like
giant fans and the olive grove
giving back its fruit.. "Many
happy returns of the day."
