American Jewish Press Featvrii

Hello, Boys and Girls:
The scene of our story this
week is a railroad station, and
the thief characters are a couple
of trains who know what they're
talking about .. .
* * *
"Whew! Whew! Whew!" pant-
ed the shiny Diesel, as it slid
into place on Track Four. The
bright steel cars took a final
glide, and were still. Ina few
moments, the car doors opened,
and out poured a stream of
women—big ones, small ones,
young ones, not-so-young ones,
chattering, smiling, rushing into
the station.
Next to the Diesel, on Track
Five, a heavy locomotive spoke
up. "Chug' Chug!" it breathed.
"Shalom. I see you are a Ha-
dassah special."
"Shalom," responded the Die-
sel. "Yes, of course. From the
East Coast. But how did you
know?"
"That's a silly question," said
the locomotive. "Didn't I just
see hundreds of women leave
you, laden down with flags, lit-
erature, notebooks. And. signs—

`Detroit, Here We Come,' Hadas-
sah's Fortieth Year,' "Off to
Convention,' New Jersey Re-
gion, 'Connecticut Delegation'..."
• "My how observant you are,"
commented the Diesel.
The locomotive winked its
headlight. "Well, I must admit,
I'm already familiar with the
situation. I pulled in here last
night from Chicago with a load
of Midwestern delegates."
_"From behind the locomotive,
a new voice entered the conver-
sation. It was the, diner?. "I
heard some of the women 'say
that three - thousand delegates
are expected at the meetings in
Detroit this weed. What is this
Hadassah anyhow, a club?"
"Club!" shouted the 'locomo-
tive. "Club!" hooted the Diesel.
"Hadassah is the Women's Zion-
ist Organization of America, It

began in 1912, when a wonderful
person named Henrietta Szold
got a group of women interested
in doing something about the
deplorable health conditions in
Israel—only it was Palestine,
then. She laid the foundation
for all kinds of ambitious proj-
ects—clinics, and hospitals, doc-
tors' and nurses' training schools,
disease control, free lunches,
care for new mothers . . ."
"And that's not all," broke. in
the locomotive. "M i s s Szold
started Youth Aliyah. That's the
group that helps children and
teen-agers escape from lands of
persecution and hardship and
starts them off on a life of
health and happiness in Israel."
"Vocational training! Don't
forget vocational training!" the
Diesel exclaimed. Young Israelis
can learn almost any trade or
craft at Hadassah - sponsored
schools . . . carpentry, photog-
raphy, stenography, cooking . .."
"Fashion design!" chimed in
the baggage car. "Do you know
what I carried in from New
York last night? The most at-
tractive gowns and coats and
sportswear you could ever want
to see. Looked like Fifth Avenue
to me, but the labels said 'Tel
Aviv.' Imagine!"

Tales Out of School

"The Youth of a Nation are the Trustees
of Posterity."—Disraeli.

"Sure," said the locomotive.
"At one of those convention
sessions there's going to be a
fashion show--all Israeli de-
signs."
"Well this all sounds like a
wonderful program in Israel,
and I understand it costs money
to support it—but is that all
these Hadassah women do, raise
money?" asked the skeptical
diner.
"Where did you get this igno-
ramus?" whispered the Diesel.
"Look, Chelemite! He addressed
the diner. "American affairs,
participation in civic efforts,
understanding current events.
Education; study groups, prepa-
ration for creative Jewish living.
Public relations, advancing Ha-
dassah's wort and the state of
Israel through radio, TV, the
press, speakers. Youth Activities.
Tourist Bureau . . ."
But the locomotive was get-
ting up steam, ready for another
trip. "Shalom," it called, back-
ing away from the station.
"Shalom," returned the Die-
sel. "See you at another conven-
tion.

And I'll bet someone from

your mother or an aunt, will be
