Oct. 19 & 20 $189 "CHARLIE PROSE" SHOW" Toledo - Nov. 19 $59 * - - community-center. In 1954, a substantial private donation was made and the building was established. On the wall just before the entrance are plaques of con- tributors' names. One wonders if there is a family connection with Canadian families. At the entrance, on a table, is a basket filled with kippot. Odd chairs, perhaps 75, are placed facing the bimah. A service in English and Hebrew is held every Friday evening and Sat- urday morning. On the High Holy Days and at the few mar- riages, brit or bar mitzvah cer- emonies, there are usually large crowds. Chana enthusiastically told me that on Sunday many dren are now coming for He- brew lessons. The annex has a library on Judaism and a small cemetery is next to the synagogue. Before leaving Chana to her daily duties, I asked how Jews fared in a city of Hindus and Muslims. "We're treated very well," she said. The freedom to worship is echoed by my Hindu driver. In fact, many Jews have risen to high ranks in the government of India. The main point is that the In- dian Jews maintained their identity over the centuries and have not allowed themselves to become assimilated. One expla- nation is that the Hindu concept 3 of "dharma" requires one to re- main "and fulfill the duties of the station where Providence has placed you." As I left, I felt an over- whelming sense of awe, know- ing that in this far-away country, in this densely popu- lated city, is a small piece of Jewish history. El] "DEGAS EXHIBIT" - Chicago Incl.
