chairman of the Jewish Agency. It
is based on the educational experi-
ences of Israel in pre-vocational
training among children from back-
ward countries and is primarily for
children who never went to school
or who dropped out. The curricu-

agricultural communities where
children and teachers are required
for several months of the year to
help sow and harvest crops.

Southfield High Community Relations Club
to Discuss Values Learned from Holocaust

Because material on the Holo-
caust is not yet in the regular
school curricula, the head librar-
ian of Southfield High School has
arranged for books on the sub-
ject to be available to the stu-
dents. The Center's Jewish Par-
ents Institute has also made its
own curriculum on the Holocaust
available to the group.

The adult Human Relations Com-
mittee of Southfield and Lathrup
is expected to attend, as well as
Dr. John English, superintendent
of Southfield Public Schools.

About 100 students from junior
and senior history and sociology
classes will be in the audience.
There is no admission charge, and
the public is invited.
Mrs. Seymour Rowe is coordinat-
ing the event for the National
Council of Jewish Women.
In addition to the student panel
discussion, many noted authors
and personalities will appear
throughout the week of the Book
Fair, when more than 7,000 books
of general interest appealing to
both adults and children will be
offered for sale. There also will be
special programs for children.

5 years
you can save
over$140.00
with a new
Gas dryer.

Work it out for yourself. It takes less than 2E to dry

a load of clothes with Gas. And you can dry 5
loads in a Gas dryer for the cost of drying 1 with
electricity.
Based on the number of loads an average family
dries, there's a saving of 528 or more a year-
5140 in 5 years. Your Gas dryer can actually pay
for itself in 5 years with the money saved it
operating costs.
There are no hidden expenses, either. Installation
is free. Maintenance comes to less than 20c a
year, on the average (or the amount you can save
on a few loads).
No wonder 7 out of 10 families that now have
dryers have Gas dryers. Money aside, Gas finishes
loads up to 10 minutes faster, so you can get more
loads through in a day. Clothes come out fresh,
soft and looking like new, including all your
permanent-press things.
Gas makes the big difference ... costs less, too.
Not just for 5 years, either; but as long as you use it.
See the latest dryer models at dealer or Gas
Company showrooms.
