Must File to Get Medic Insurance People 65 and over who have not yet enrolled in the voluntary doctor bill insurance part of Medi- care have only about a week left in which to sign up. Sam F. Test, social security dis- trict manager, said that although most older people in the Detroit Northwest area, as well as in Livonia; Plymouth and, Ncirthville, are already enrolled in the pro- gram that supplements their basic hospital insurance under Medi- care, some still need to take action by March 31 in order to get the protection. For anyone born Oct. 1, 1901. or earlier, he pointed out, this will be the last chance to get the pro- tection. Others now 66 to 67 years of age, who have not signed up by the end of this open enrollment period, will have to wait until next January for another opportunity. Just about everyone 65 and over is eligible for the voluntary doctor bill insurance, Test pointed out. whether or not they have ever worked under social security and whether retired or still working. The 54 monthly premium paid by the people enrolled in the doc- tor bill insurance part of Medicare represents half of the cost of the protection, Test said. The govern- ment pays the other half.

Yoin Haatzmaut (Israel Inde- pendence Day) as a family holiday was initiated in 1963 by Dr. Sara Feder, then chairman of the edu- cation department of Pioneer Women. "The religious Jewish family has the strength of the celebration of the Shabat every week and of the holidays throughout the year. The average Jewish family, how- ever, celebrates only the High Holidays and Passover. For in- creasing the sense of belonging, for the children, Yom Haatzmaut as a family holiday can be fol- 1 o w e d through without any strains,•• Dr. Feder says. For the home celebration of Torn Haatzmaut, Pioneer Women make general suggestions because they feel the celebration should be open for personal revisions. Some of the suggestions they make are: Decorate the home, especially the dining area, with a flag of Israel, maps, pictures of Israeli personalities, posters, art objects, streamers and balloons. Plan the menu to contain at least one item of native Israel fare—falafel• humus or fruit soup. They also suggest the singing of 11 a t i k v a, song games, stories, and Israel records or movies. The Pioneer Women believe that the simple device of dinner at home, with the whole family, will be of service not only to Israel, by pleasant association, but it will give one more togetherness to the Jewish family. Time is passing and a new gen- eration of Jewish' youth is grow- , ing up. They know of Israel's statehood, as an event in history, not through personal experience. The great educational principle which has served to make the holiday of Passover so meaning- ful—"and thou shall tell your son upon that day . . ." should also be used to do justice to Yom Haatz- maut. Remember that if Passover is the birthday of Jewish People- hood, then Yom Haatzmaut is the birthday of Jewish Statehood. The child instinctively reaches out for experiences of victory, joy and success. Too often parents were compelled by historical des- tiny, to offer him defeat, failure and sadness. Surely this is not true of Israel. Here at last is an event in history growing in sheer achievement and profound significance from year to year, which will continue to in- spire the pride and joy of being a Jew. Why not have all Jewish children share the "Happy Birth- day, dear Israel."
