The children's voices are
especially thrilling. Skipping
rope, counting to ten and
backwards in a class of 6-
year-old youngsters, a mother
calling the child to lunch and
the child's reply—these and
many other sounds give re-
ality to a fine recording.
Use of Hebrew as the lan-
guage of the new nation is
especially in evidence. A child
greets a parrot with "baker
toy" and the parrot is heard
repeating in Hebrew. With a
doll as the medium children are
taught Hebrew.
Then there are the bargain-
ers in the market place, those
acting the roles being unaware
that their voices were being re-
corded.
Jerusalem as the religious
center also is portrayed through
the voices of representatives of
all faiths, and not only the
synagogue but the church —
Catholic and Protestant — is
represented.
Even a circumcision, in the
Hada ss ah Hospital, finds
echoes in this record.
Songs and laughter depict
life in Jerusalem, and the va-
ried voices provide understand-
ing of the life of the Israelis
in the Holy City. The final
sounds are those of the man
who "walked a long way, but at
last has come home."
It is a remarkable record,
well done, well worthy of a wide
listening public.
