Miriam's
Stories for
Our Boys
and Girls

Hello, Boys and Girls:
Our friends, Danny and Judy,
are with 'us today. Perhaps you
can learn something about
yourselves by reading their
story.

Honor Thy Neighbors
It was Saturday afternoon.
Almost everyone in the• neigh-
borhood was sitting on their
front steps, enjoying the fine
spring breeze. Mother sat in her
rocking chair. Daddy's face was
buried in a book, but if you
looked closely you could see he
was really taking a sabbath nap.
Suddenly, the peace was dis-
turbed. Danny and Judy came
running around the corner of
the house,
laughing a n d aa
calling to each
other. When,.(
they saw moth- -a---a, t •
er and daddy, aaa1.,:ei 'ea\
they stopped
, •t \\
and giggled.
Danny whisper-
ed in Judy's
ear, and J u d yj
whispered in c
Danny's ear.
M . other
thought it was
a new game. "Is
it fun?" she asked. "Is it a
secret?"
"Wait 'til you hear," Danny
said. "We went around the cor-
ner, where the empty house is,
and •the new people have some
of their things in the house al-
ready, and we walked in the
back door . .."
Judy carried on. "And we
looked. at the rooms, and the
color is terrible, and the furni-
ture is so funny-looking , ."
She broke out into giggles again.
But mother didn't seem to
think it was so funny. "Were
the new neighbors there?" she
asked.
"No," answered Danny.
"Did anyone invite you into
the house?" mother asked.
"No," admitted Judy.
"Then •what business did you
have walking in? And what
right have you to criticize other
people's taste? And what do you
mean by carrying tales about a
ptivate house all over the
neighborhood?" Mother's face
was stern.
Danny looked at Judy. Judy
looked at Danny. They hadn't
intended to be mean. They just
didn't think carefully,
Daddy had awakened and was
listening. "Do you know what
the Bible says about respecting
your neighbors?" daddy said.
"This morning, at the syna-
gogue, I heard the rabbi read
from. the Torah . . . 'Thou shalt
not go up and down as a tale-
bearer among thy people' . . .
and Thou shalt in no way re-
buke thy neighbor'."
"We're sorry," Danny said.
"We just thought we were hav-
ing fun."'
"I'm sure you're sorry," moth-
er told the children. "But there
are many, many ways for you
to have fun without hurting
other people. Go •now, and
play."

* * *

•

I hope none of you ever have
"fun" at the expense of your
friends or neighbors, boys and
girls.
If you go to the synagogue
this Sabbath, you will hear the
Bible passages that daddy told
about. They are from a famous
part of the Torah known as the
"Code of Holiness," in which
God tells the Jewish people how
they should behave themselves
and toward each other. It's the
basis for many of the wisest
laws of modern times.

If you would like to read it
for yourself, you will find it in
the 19th Chapter of the Book
of Leviticus in the Bible.

Here are some of the other
things the Code of Holiness
tells us:
"Ye shall not steal nor deal
falsely nor lie to one another."
"Ye shall not profane the
name of thy God."
"Thou shalt not hate thy
brother in thy heart."
"Thou shalt not bear any
grudge against the children of
thy people, but thou shalt
love they neighbor as thyself."
"Thou shalt honor the face
of the old man."
"The stranger that dwelleth
with you shall be unto you as
one born among you, and thou
shalt love him as thyself."

Good things to remember,
aren't they, boys and girls?
