Miami Group Considers Jewish
Education as “Family Affair”
A panel discussion held at
Temple Beth Sholom, Miami
Beach, last spring on ‘‘Can We
Make Jewish Education a ‘Family
Affair?’ If Yes—How?” brought
some very emphatic ideas from
the four teenagers and their mo
thers.
Under the guidance of Rabbi
Leon Kronish, the religious
school 9th graders voiced a dis
tinct call for greater cooperation
from parents in making religious
study lasting and meaningful.
Ann Weiss, 15, insisted that if
Jewish children today are being
sent to religious school, “their
parents should also know what
Judaism is all about.” She added,
“Jewish education must not stop
when one leaves Hebrew school
. . . you must show it to your
children.”
Parents and children must
“share ideas and opinions” stated
Jo-Ann Rauch, 15. They must “be
able to argue, debate and discuss”
Jewish knowledge.
Voluntary adult education
courses for adults, and an inspir
ing “spiritual” atmosphere in the
home were suggested by 15-year-
old Rose Goldman. Thoroughly in
agreement, Kyle Cohen,14, went
one step further in suggesting that
“Adults should become acquaint
ed with all the material being
taught to their children.” A
weekly class discussion for par
ents “on the identical lessons of
their children” was suggested by
Jo-Ann, with Ann Weiss stressing
the need for parents to attend
services with their children.
The girls’ parents, Mrs. Eugene
Weiss, Mrs. Elliott Cohen, Mrs.
Joseph M, Behr
Joseph M. Behr, 71, of St.
Petersburg, died Saturday Nov.
27.
Funeral services were conduct
ed by Rabbi Morris B. Chapman,
with interment in Woodlawn
Memorial Park.
A native of Poland, Mr. Behr
came to St. Petersburg six years
ago from Los Angeles. He was a
maintenance machinist. A vet
eran of World War I, he was a
member of American Legion Post
254 in Los Angeles, Jewish War
Veterans Post 246, and Sunshine

Petersburg. Mr. Behr attended

bined efforts of the home and the

through their children. “It is a
hard thing to take—the knowing

Testimonial
ior a Teacher
Special to Southern Israelite
It is the lot of most teachers
to give a lifetime of dedicated
service which goes unnoticed in
the hustle and bustle of our very
busy civilization. Their greatest
satisfaction comes from the real
ization that their efforts have
helped to mold better citizens,
and thus make this a better world
in which to live.
Occasionally, a comm unity
stops to take stock of its assets
and will become aware that it
has a valued member who, quiet
ly, unsung, day in, day out, is
doing an outstanding job. ^
Congregation B’nai Israel of
St. Petersburg is one such organ
ization that is showing its ap
preciation to a teacher who serves
beyond the call of duty. On De
cember 4, a testimonial dinner
was held to honor Mrs. Sarah F.
Moss for a lifetime of service to
humanity, and for her eighteen
years as teacher, supervisor, and
counsellor of the Synagogue Re
ligious School.
Dr. Philip Benjamin, civic
leader, served as master of cere
monies. Fred Robin sang a group
of cantorial songs dedicated spec
ially to Mrs. Moss. Among the
speakers were Rabbi Morris B.
Chapman. Mr. Murray M. Jacobs.
Dr. Harold C. Rivkind, Dr. David
L. Mendelblatt, Mr. and Mrs.
Maurice A. Goldblatt, and Mr.
George Feineman.
Friends of the guest of honor
traveled from as far as Los An
geles and New York to attend the
affair.
A champagne hour preceded
the dinner which was catered by
Bill Hahn. Dance music was
played by Art Reno and the Hall
marks.
Much interest is being display
ed by the merpbership for the an
nual Hanukah Party, given by the
National Council of Jewish Wom

at 1:00 p. m. Besides luncheon re
freshments, the membership will
