A few days ago I came home
in the evening tired after a day
of work and as I went up the
staircase I heard the crying of
my little son. "Mother! Mother!
give me flour and sugar and
oil. The teacher said that every
child must bring flour and
sugar and oil, to the kinder-
garten."
Just as I opened the door
my son jumped into my arms,
saying tearfully (in crying):
"Mother says she is busy now
and cannot give me flour and
sugar and oil. But tomorrow
we are making pancakes in
honor of Hanukah."
Of course on the morning
of the next day my son went
to the kindergarten with a
small parcel `in which were all
the things necessary for making
pancakes.
The festival of Hanukah is
very popular with the children
of the kindergarten. They dec-
orate the walls with colorful
decorations and hang a gigan-
tic top made of paper and
bearing the letters Nun Gim-
mel Heh Peh (Ness Gadol
Hayah Poh—there was a great
miracle here) from the ceiling.
On the eve of the festival
the children light the Hanu-
kah candles in the kindergar-
ten and sing the songs of the
festival. On the next day Hanu-
kah vacation begins, for the
kindergartens and schools in
Israel are closed throughout -
the eight days of the festival.
In the evenings you may
walk through the streets of
Jerusalem and see thousands
of candelabra in the windows
of the houses. On the lofty
buildings in all parts of the
town stand large Hanukah
Menorot while a festive at-
mosphere fills the hearts of
both children and adults.
