The Jewish family, traditional-
ly and historically, has been the
source of great educational and
ethical-moral training. There must
be a renascence of family life,
and the disintegrating forces
within the society must be com-
batted by the unified strength fif
family ties and tradition. We may
yet face the great educational
revival in which education will
no longer be conceived in the
restricted sense of teaching, in-
struction and training. We must
reek the development of those
ethical-moral principles and pat-
terns of behavior which are of
the highest good, through persoli-
to-person relationships, social ex-
periences, the solution of com-
munity problems, and mutual aid.
We are producing armaments
on a staggering scale. We must
and can produce intellectual and
moral honesty, personal convic-
tion and individual growth of a
corresponding greatness. The
powers of the human mind and
the resources of wealth must
devoted to the elimination of the
causes and amelioration of the
conditions not only of the unfor-
tunate and afflicted, but of
everyman. The great American
public school educator, Horace
Mann, said in his parting words
to the students of Antioch Col-
lege, of which he was president.
"Be ashamed to die until you
have won some victory for hu-
manity."
The Nov Year must bring with
it a desire in each one of us to
win something for humanity. No
matter how small the victory each
of us will win, the accumulation
will result in a victory for man-
kind.
