15,000 Youth Clear Forests
on New Year of the Trees
JERUSALEM (JTA) —
Some 15,000 youth cleared
away underbrush and fallen
branches in Jewish Na-
tional Fund forests Feb. 2,
Tu b'Shevat, the Jewish
New Year of the Trees. But
planting was not allowed
because this is a, sabbatical
year. According to tradi-
tion, the earth must lay fal-
low for one year every seven
years.
The clean-up project was
organized by the JNF and
the Nature Reserve Society
on the occasion of Nature
Reserve Week. The youths
came from high schools all
over Israel. Their work was
important because the ac-
cumulation of forest debris
during the dry season is
often the cause of forest fires
in the summer months.
After several hours of
work, the youngsters were
taken on tours by Nature
Reserve Society guides.
Adult Class-
at Beth Jacob
Temple Beth Jacob will
hold a class for adults, "Food
for Thought," 10:45 a.m.
Sunday in the temple.
Topic for discussion will
be "The 'X-Rated' Version of
Jewish Holidays — Yom
Kippur." Refreshments will
be served. For information,
call the temple, 332-3212.
Praising what is lost
makes the remembrance
dear.
The JNF currently
takes care of about
175,000 acres of planted
forests throughout the
country and another
75,000 acres of natural
forests. It plans to plant
an additional 125,000
acres of forest — about
6,000 acres annually —
over the next few years
which will require 25 mil-
lion saplings grown in
JNF nurseries.
In addition to affore-
station, the JNF has created
five parks extending over
5,000 acres and scores of
picnic areas in various parts
of the country. Present
plans call for another four
parks and two nature re-
serves for animals.
The JNF is focussing on
land reclamation work in
the Negev, the Judean des-
ert, the Dead Sea valley,
Arava and Eilat. It plans 14
tourist centers, up to 20
camping areas, 100 lookout
posts and 60 antiquity sites
in those areas.
