JWB, Chaplain to Open
Jewish School in Tokyo

TOKYO — Responding to the
frequently-voiced concern of ref-
ugee parents living in the com-
munity here concerning the

absence of any kind of Jewish
religious education f o r their
children, Chaplain Edward Ellen-
bogen, area chaplain, is making
plans to set up a religious school
for 12 Jewish children. The chap-
lain will be supplied with relig-
ious and educational materials
for the school through the
National Jewish Welfare Board.

Jacob possessed 1,200,000 droves
of sheep and 600,000 dogs to
watch them, according to Mid-
rash Rabbo. The highest stand-
ing a man could attain in those
days was that of shepherd or
flock owner. Many great biblical
leaders, such as Moses and David,
are, left to right, Rabbi Aaron were shepherds.
