Friday, November 16, 1956 — THE DETROIT JEWISH NE WS-14

Detroiter's Book,
Tillage of Hope,'
Featured at Fair

A Detroit couple has com-
bined their talents to produce a
warm children's story of, the
Halutzim of Israel.
The story, written by Mrs.
Pearl Burris, with illustrations
by her husband, Richard, is
called "The. Village of Hope,"
and it will be available at this
year's Jewish Book Fair.
The 20-page paper-bound vol-
ume tells of the celebration on
Tu b'Shvat (Arbor Day) as cele-
brated by the settlers of ,Eretz
Tikvah, a kibbutz in Israel.
The characters, Ruben, Miri-
am, Benjamin -and David, por-
tray the main hope that rests
with the Jewish state — the
ambition of the people to settle,
reclaim the land and to succeed.
It is told simply in terms that.
youngsters will enjoy reading.
Mrs. Burns, a religious school
teacher at Cong. Ahavas Achim,
has written numerous articles,
but this is her first attempt at
a book.
-Her husband, now a U. S.
Government w6rker, formerly
worked as an illustrator in New
York. He still dabbles in pho-
tography and various art forms.
Mr. and Mrs. Burns, who live
at 18459 Hubbell, have two chil-
dren, Elliott, 16, and Gloria, 10.
The work is being indepen-
dently published by the Glorel
Publishing Co., and a limited
first edition of 2,500 copies has
been printed. After Book Fair,
however, "The Village of ITOpe"
will be distributed by Bloch
Publishing Co. of New York
throughout the country.

Tall ,Mumfordite have been
bumping their heads on the bags
_which have been adorning
Mumford's ceilings during the
past two weeks and the Shorter

wonderment. Tuesday, however,
the bags were removed, and
"the cat was let out." The cat

sale. Janet Bing, social commit-

Council, requests that there be

the seniors selected their class
color, motto, and flower. The
very unusual (and unorthodox)
colors are charcoal grey and red
Scotch plaid. Their flower is a
red-tipped white c a r n a t i o n,
while their motto reads, "Do
not cease to learn till you cease
to live."
Spectators were excited last
week from the boys' "natator-
ium" as they watched Mumford
swim .its way to victory over
Southwestern by a score of 50-

Ralph Ryback, Bob Kobel, Fred

especially happy, having taken
first places in this meet.
