OUR KIDDIES'
By Uncle David
Dear Boys and Girls:
Bar Mitvzah boys will be in-
terested in the following verse
by the fine Jewish woman and
noted poet, who spent her last
years in the colony Givat Bren-
ner in Israel—Miss Jessie Samp-
ter:
We are the children of the Law,
Our honor is that we obey.
By truths our sires at Sinai saw
Our lives are - sanctified today.
Our promise is that we shall
lead
Because we learned the law
in youth.
Our name is princely, and our
creed
Is simple: that the Lord is
truth.

Chosen to Bear the
Greatest Burdens
A wise rabbi was once asked
why the Bible refers to the Jews
as "God's Chosen People." The
rabbi answered with this ex-
planation:
A king once ordered two regi-
ments to come to his city resi-
dence. To the one he gave dif-
ficult duties, and to the other
easy work and many liberties.
A quarrel arose between the
leaders of the two regiments.
The one claimed that his regi-
ment was regarded by the king
with greater favor, but the
other said that his regiment was
the more honored because of its
severer duties.
The news of this quarrel came
to the king. He immediately
gave out this command : "You
must not quarrel as to which
regiment stands higher in my
favor. Both serve me, and there
is no question of any favors.
But the regiment that proves it-
self capable of bearing the
greatest burdens serves me best."
The Jewish people have been
given great hardships to endure.
They have proved themselves
capable of bearing the responsi-
bilities that were entrusted to
them, and they never lost faith
in God. For this reason they
became recognized as a chosen
people.

'The Greek King Learns
From the Rabbis •
Alexander the Great, who had
conquered the ancient world,
made a peaceful entrance into
Palestine, and while there, he
visited the Jewish rabbis, for he
was eager to learn wisdom.
"What man may be reckoned
wealthy?" the Greek king asked.
"He who has enough for his
needs, and a little over," said
the rabbis.
"Who is a wise man?" Alex-
ander went on.
"He who is not ashamed to
learn from anyone or anything
on earth."
"But who is strong?" said the
conqueror, this time feeling sure
of a flattering answer. The rab-
bis replied to him:
"He who can rule himself is
stronger than the man that
captures a city."
And Alexander was sad, for the
one person he could not govern
was himself. In fact, he short-
ened his life by his drunken-
ness; and once, while maddened
with drink, he killed his best
friend, and grieved for it ever
after!

Wisdom of the Talmud
Beware of an over-pious ig-
noramus and of one badly
trained.
Wisdom increases with years
and so does folly.
The rivalry of scholars ad-
vances learning.
Ignorance and conceit go
hand in hand.
If thou hast acquired knowl-
edge, what canst thou lack? If
thou lackst knowledge what can
-thou acquire?

high in protein,
minerals and vitamins.
Salmon soup is a. bright meal
starter or it becomes a satisfy-
ing lunch when served with a
crisp salad and toasted rolls. The
ease with which it may be pre-
pared recommends it for fre-
quent serving. The liquid from
the canned salmon should be
used whenever possible for bone-
building minerals and vitamin
D are found in it. The paprika
red color of the juice and the
bits - of fat in the liquid add to
the attractiveness of this soup.
The r e d sockeye salmon is a
deep pink in color and may be
used as it comes from the can
or in cooked dishes, salads, sand-
wiches, scalloped dishes or in
soups or chowders. With the
canning of salmon. this fine fish
is available across the nation.
A 73/4 ounce flat can of salmon
will hold about 1 cup of fish.
