New Israel Stamps Commemorate
Growth of Shipping Industry

To commemorate the growth of her
shipping industry, which is receiv-
ing impetus from proceeds derived
from State of Israel Bonds, Israel
has a series of four postage stamps
shown here. The stamps, printed
in Israel and designed by Mrs.
Miriam Karoly of Haifa, depict the
history of Israel's sea progress. The
10-pruta stamp contains an illus-
tration of an ancient boat of Judea
used in Biblical times; the 20-pruta
stamp, the frigate "Nirit," which
transported immigrants to Pales-
tine during the British Mandate;
'the 30-pruta stamp, the modern
merchant ship "Shomron;" which
carries cargo to and from foreign
ports, and the 1,000-pruta stamp,
the new passenger steamer "Zion."

Camp Hiawatha Has
Wide Activity Range

Basing its camp program on
the principle that there is
something for everyone . . .
and everyone for something,
Camp Hiawatha, now in its
12th season, offers a wide vari-
ety of activities for boys, 5 to
15, and girls, 5 to 14.
Located at Comins, Mich., in
the heart of the Huron Na-
tional Forest, Camp Hiawatha
has its own private lake and
features outings to Lake Huron,
Lake Michigan, canoe trips
down the AuSable River, visits
to the Straits of Mackinac and
Mackinac Island and other
points of interest.
Its camp activities vary from
crafts to cookouts, riding to
riflery, boating to boxing, fish-
ing to football. Of particular
interest are such programs as
aquaplaning, Little League
baseball, dramatics, sailing and
woodcraft.
Owned by a Detroit pediatri-
cian, the camp was formerly
only for boys. Last year, it
became a co-ed camp for the
first year. Maximum enroll-
ment is 75 boys and 25 girls.
Harry Collins, of the Eastern
High School athletic depart-
ment, is director.
