nervous system. An affected
child appears normal until
about six months of age, but
once the disease appears;
there is a general and slow
deterioration and the child
begins to lose all of his or
her mental and physical
skills. The disease causes
damage to vital nerve cen-
ters and death normally oc-
curs by three to five years of
age.
When both husband and
wife carry the Tay-Sachs
gene, there is a one-in-four
chance that each pregnancy
will result in a child with
the disease. A child must
inherit two Tay-Sachs
genes, one from each of his
parents, to have the disease.

Spiced Tea
This recipe calls for the
big tea taste of Tetley's tiny
little tea leaves. Deeper and
darker than most teas, Tet-
ley is full-bodied so it holds
its own with the fruit juices

in Jewish homes for more
than half a century, is cer-
tified kosher for Passover.
Bring to a boil 1/2 cup water
and Y4 cup sugar. Remove
from flame and add Y4 cup
fresh orange juice, Y. cup fresh
lemon juice, 6 cloves, and 1
stick of cinnamon. Heat 5
measuring cups water. Put 3 or
4 Tetley Tea bags into heated
water and let steep 3-4 mi-
nutes. Pour Into spice mixture
and serve immediately In
mugs or tea cups.

Two Eyes
Every human being is en-
dowed by his Maker with
two eyes. With one he is ex-
pected to look at his
neighbor, fastening his gaze
on his virtues, his excel-
lences, his desirable qual-
ities. With the other eye, he
is to turn inward to see his
own weaknesses, his imper-
fections, and his shortcom-
ings, in order to correct
them.
—Israel Salanter
Awareness
Only the democracy
which remains continu-
ously and vividly aware of
its religious origins and de-
stiny, and of the underlying
and indispensable spiritual
principles of law, brother-
hood, justice, sacrifice, and
peace can sustain the free
life of man and society.
—Abba Hillel Silver
