ELEMENTARY LEVEL
Nathan says that he was an Orthodox Jew all his life. In fact,
he spoke Yiddish during most of his 82 years, but began learn
ing English about fifteen years age .nd now speaks it quite well,
although he thinks he could do b« He has quite a library of
books in Yiddish. He showed me a set of Jules Verne books—
all in Yiddishl The Talmud, of course, and many other books.
During our entire visit at his apartment on Long Island, he
wore his black yarmulka, the skull-cap that Orthodox and some
Conservative Jews always wear.
I was visiting Nathan because his wife
was sick in the hospital, and he was very
Lene. His wife did not know that Nathan
has been a Catholic for some eight years
now. True, she knew that he had some Cath
olic friends, even some Sisters whom he
met on the Boardwalk of their summer-
resort town, but if she did suspect any
thing, Nathan's wife never said anything to him about it She
even welcomed the Sisters into their home and loved them, but
Nathan had other problems.
His asthma kept Nathan from Mass when the weather was too
cold, or bad, but he did manage to get to Mass occasionally.
'Tell me," he asked, ' do you think anyone would say anything
...if I wore my yarmulka in church? At Mass?"
I thought about it. It never occurred to me before that this
might be possible... was it possible?
"Why,” I asked Nathan, "why would you want to wear your
yarmulka at Mass and in church?"
"Because I wore it all my life, and I feel uncomfortable if I
don't wear it."
What would people think... if they saw an old man wearing a
black skull-cap at Mass? I don't know. "Do you think," he
asked, "that a priest would give permission for me to do this?"
"I don’t know,” I told him gently, "but I’ll find out."
"Yes,” he said eagerly, "find out, ask one of your priests
and see what he tells you."
Up to this moment, I haven't asked any priest about this. While
we were talking, Nathan got a phone call. His wife had just died
in the hospital. He sat down, shocked, and speechless. "I’m
not good at tears," he said. "I can’t cry." I found it hard to
find the right words to say. Some of Nathan’s relatives would be
coming over soon. In a little while, I left Nathan with his sor
row, and his memories.
Could Nathan wear his yarmulka in church? At Mass? It
would be nice if he could, if people didn't stare and wouldn’t
be too scandalized or shocked.
I would be afraid that some overzealous Catholic would go up
to Nathan and say, 'Take that off I Don’t you know any better
than to wear a hat in church?!" I would be afraid... and yet,
perhaps not.,, perhaps people would understand... I would hope
they would understand...
A Jewish woman I met in Cleveland who had come into the
Church a few years ago, told me that she misses her Jewish cus
toms, lighting the candles on Friday night for instance. Her
husband is still Jewish.
''Well, why don’t you light the candles on Friday night?" I
asked her. "It's in your own house, it’s something that Our Lady
herself did inherhouse inNazareth, so why not? You can say the
Magnificat, I suggested, or a few Hail Mary’s, or any prayer
you want... perhaps even the beautiful Jewish prayers that the
mother says when she lights the candles and welcomes the
Sabbath."
"You know” she said, "I think I willl"
I think that there are some beautiful and meaningful Jewish
customs which’Jews who become Catholics might still be ahle to
continue, especially those observed at home. 1 myself light the
Yahrzeit candle on the anniversary of my father’s death and now
I will do the same for my mother on her anniversary. I place
the Yahrzeit candle (it looks like a large vigil light) on the
mantle in front of a beautiful Madonna and Child statue we have.
And I say a Hail Mary, a Memorare, and a few private prayers
for my father, and a prayer to St. Joseph. And I ask God to be
merciful to my father, and welcome him into His Presence if
he is not already there.
I think there are some wonderful customs we Jewish Catho
lics ought to perpetuate. And if you should happen to see Nathan
wearing his black yarmulka in church, or at Mass, please don’t
act as if he was committing a crime. Let him wear it, if it
makes him feel more comfortable — with God.

To The Editor
TO THE EDITOR:
I wish to remain anonymous
to a reasonable point. What I
wish to say about our Bulletin
is in a general sense at times,
but this time, in a specific
sense, I wish to express com
ment on the articles this week*
by Mr. Gary MacEoin and by
Mr. Leon Paul. What I wish
to say is:
The point brought out con
cerning the "thinking” of our
young people while they are
in action in the performance of
their daily interests, is so very
important, the MacEoin’s ar
ticle should not be neglected
throughout the ensuing months
by our lay organizations. It
should be followed up, thorough
ly studied and taken seriously
in our every day home life.
Likewise, the article of Mr.
Paul opens with reference to
the worddeicide. He considers
the attitudes of individuals with
in our church. He wants com
ments from his readers. I would
like him to continue such a
discussion through his columns
every now and then with spe
cifics. Has the word deicide
been eliminated? I thought not.
It is only by such writers that
we can change the world to
conform to our council docu
ments.
Sincerely,
(Name withheld)
TO THE EDITOR:
Dear Father Kieraan:
I decided to put on paper
my feeling that you and Father
Mayhew are performing magni
ficently with the BULLETIN.
It has improved in readability
and general interest. I congra
tulate both of you, and I know
that my feeling is held by many
others.
Very truly yours,
Louis C. Fink

5-Week Summer Series
Of Adult Lectures
The annual summer, lecture
series, which is now a part of
the adult education program
organized by the Department
of Catholic Education, this year
will consist of four series of
lectures.
Father Leonard F.X. May
hew, S.T.L. Head of the Arch
diocesan Liturgical Commis
sion, will present the Monday
Night series on "Theology of
the Liturgy”. The course will
explain the theological basis
of the Liturgy and show how
this supports liturgical changes
which have resulted from the
Second Vatican Council..
On Tuesday nights Father
Ellis DePriest, S.M. M.Mus.,
will present a series of lec
tures on "The Renewed Liturgy
and Music.” Father DePriest
will show the emphasis that
the renewed liturgy gives to
music, and will demonstrate
some of the music already writ
ten for the new Liturgy.
Father William Calhoun,
M.A., S.T.L. will conduct the
Wednesday night series, en
titled "God, Science, and God’s
Own Word.” The series will
explore modern and contem
porary approaches to Revela
tion from the point of view of
recent scientific research and
space-age values. They will
analyze the Old and the New
Testament Revelation against
the background of such scien
ces as Archeology and Anthro
pology, and illustrate modern
research into the sources of
the Gospels.
The fourth series of lectures
will run on Thursday nights
and will be entitled “The New
Catechetics - Just How New”.
Father Matthew Kemp, A.B.,
M. Ed, will talk on the new
approach to catechetics and
show its relationship to ca
techetics as taught in the an
cient church, the church of Au
gustine, the Medieval church,
and the church after the coun
cil of Trent.
Each series of lectures will
run one night a week for five
weeks. The fee for each series
