                  <text>Drawing from many historical collections at the Filson Historical Society, First American West incorporates maps, diaries, letters, ledgers, and objects. The collection documents the travels of the first Europeans to enter the trans-Appalachian West, the maps tracing their explorations, their relations with Native Americans, and their theories about the region's mounds and other ancient earthworks. Naturalists and other scientists describe Western bird life and bones of prehistoric animals. Books and letters document the new settlers' migration and acquisition of land, navigation down the Ohio River, planting of crops, and trade in tobacco, horses, and whiskey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The First American West: The Ohio River Valley, 1750-1820 consists of 15,000 pages of original historical material documenting the land, peoples, exploration, and transformation of the trans-Appalachian West from the mid-eighteenth to the early nineteenth century.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>Drawing from many historical collections at the Filson Historical Society, First American West incorporates maps, diaries, letters, ledgers, and objects. The collection documents the travels of the first Europeans to enter the trans-Appalachian West, the maps tracing their explorations, their relations with Native Americans, and their theories about the region's mounds and other ancient earthworks. Naturalists and other scientists describe Western bird life and bones of prehistoric animals. Books and letters document the new settlers' migration and acquisition of land, navigation down the Ohio River, planting of crops, and trade in tobacco, horses, and whiskey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The First American West: The Ohio River Valley, 1750-1820 consists of 15,000 pages of original historical material documenting the land, peoples, exploration, and transformation of the trans-Appalachian West from the mid-eighteenth to the early nineteenth century.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>Stow began to see the school in a more positive light as graduation approached. She wanted to be a teacher but expected her mother and older brother to oppose her aspirations. She taught in her hometown for several school terms in the early 1860s but quit teaching after her marriage in 1862.&#13;
&#13;
Several of Stow's schoolfriends also embarked on teaching careers. Stow's cousin, Julia Stow, briefly taught in Marble Hill, Indiana, while Maggie Brown moved farther away to teach music in Loda, Illinois. Melissa Jackson was a teacher in Lawrenceburg, Indiana, before pursuing better pay near the Ohio River in Boone County, Kentucky, which she describes in the letter.</text>

                  <text>Drawing from many historical collections at the Filson Historical Society, First American West incorporates maps, diaries, letters, ledgers, and objects. The collection documents the travels of the first Europeans to enter the trans-Appalachian West, the maps tracing their explorations, their relations with Native Americans, and their theories about the region's mounds and other ancient earthworks. Naturalists and other scientists describe Western bird life and bones of prehistoric animals. Books and letters document the new settlers' migration and acquisition of land, navigation down the Ohio River, planting of crops, and trade in tobacco, horses, and whiskey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The First American West: The Ohio River Valley, 1750-1820 consists of 15,000 pages of original historical material documenting the land, peoples, exploration, and transformation of the trans-Appalachian West from the mid-eighteenth to the early nineteenth century.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>The LFKA was founded by a group of women in 1887 who wanted to convince our good citizens that the kindergarten is an economic plan for the prevention of crime and a powerful agency in moral reform. In addition to opening a training school for kindergarteners (kindergarten teachers), the LFKA provided scholarships to promising young women, lobbied local and state governments to incorporate kindergartens into the public school system, and operated their own kindergartens. In 1887, the LFKA had two kindergartens and 100 students; by 1889 they had 7 schools and 350 children; and by 1905, they had served over 10,000 students. In 1911, the LFKA disbanded when training kindergarteners became a department of the Louisville Normal School and kindergartens were incorporated into the public school system. </text>

                  <text>This collection consists of documents and photographs related to Jewish experiences in the Holocaust and World War II, Jewish American efforts to support refugees, and historical memory of the Holocaust in Kentucky and Southern Indiana. This digitization project is in partnership with the Louisville Ballet's &lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.louisvilleballet.org/a-time-remembered/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;A Time Remembered&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/em&gt;performance, which marks the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau.
&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Holocaust-era family documents center on the Wolff, Levy, and Ackermann families who escaped to the United States from France and Austria, and ultimately settled in Louisville. Passports provide photographs of the family members and track their movements through countries. Letters document their efforts to navigate the administrative barriers to passage, and the tragic fate of relatives who were not approved to leave.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Records from the National Council of Jewish Women, Louisville Section document the organization's activist work in fundraising for and directly serving refugees in the city, and political organizing around national immigration policies and economic boycotts of German-made goods. The collection includes sample correspondence from national organizations and individuals who supported and were against Zionism in response to the violent antisemitism of the Holocaust. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The final items in the collection document Holocaust memorial events in the 1990s. Invitations, photographs, scripts, press releases, and articles represent the memorialization work of the Jewish Community Center, Jewish Community Federation of Louisville, &lt;span&gt;Louisville Ballet, Louisville Orchestra, and other  organizations.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</text>

�PREFACE
The purpose of this report is to present an objective and
valid review of the Louisville YMHA Camp Tall Trees at Rock Haven,
Kentucky during the period June 11 - July 23, 1950.
For the sake of clarity the report has been broken down into
a number of sections, each dealing with a specific aspect of the
camp function.

This does not disregard the obvious overlappin g

and integratio n of the areas discussed , but rather serves to
present the dynamic aspects of these areas more vividly.

No

attempt has been made to give a complete picture of the camp
organizat ion, administr ation, supervisio n, nnd program.

However,

it is hoped that Board and Camp Committee members will better
understand the general nature of operation s of Camp Tall Trees
during the 1950 season and use the report as a guide for more
effective planning for the forthcomin g camp season.
I would like to express my sincere appreciati on to Mr. Abe
Berman, chairman of the Camp Committee , for his interest and
great help at all times, as well as the other members of the
committee who could always be depended upon for their utmost
cooperatio n.

I am especially grateful to Mr. Aaron Schreiber ,

Executive Director of the YMHA for his able guidance and assistance during the camp season.

�FORWARD
The camp is unique in the emphasis it places upon children's
living together continuously, cooperatively and democratically in

intimate contact with the out-of-doors.

It is a direct experience

as opposed to the vicarious learning of the classroom.
tive days camping was just plain outdoor living.

In primi-

However, when we

consider the term camping today, we usually associate with it certain elements that are inherent,--namely, outdoor experiences related to food and shelter; recreation and group living; it implies
social adjustment; it is educational in that the learning experi~
ences-whether oriented towards skills, knowledge, or appreciationare vital, direct, and meaningful.

•All these lend enrichment to

the growth of the child.
Why a Jewish camp?

To encourage and help transmit our Jewish

culture and heri tagEJ within a derr-,ocratic framework on the level
that the camper is ready to receive, and to help develop spiritual
growth,

The camping ·movement has be en viewed as one of the great-

est educational contributions in the past fifty years.
has added fun to learning.

�COUNSELLORS
Leadership for camp counselling implies the possession of
personal qualities, skills, trnining, nnd experience which will
enable each counsellor to perform his specific function in the
camp progrRm .

The counsellor must also he.ve a clear understanding

of his professional relctionships to the camp administration , to
campers, to parents, to ether staff members, and to tho locnl
community~

Though th e program is the real reason children ~njoy

camping, whether or not a camp realizes its major goals depends
upon the skill with which the program is planned and carried out .
The counsellor in terms of his skills, physical, social, intellectual, and emotional qualities is the key to the successful camp
program.
The counsellor at Camp Tall Tre e s during the 1950 season was
selected on the basis of pe rsonal qualities, education , and extent
of previous camping experience .

All the counsellors were either

coll ege students or c ollege graduatos and had had previous camping
experience.

There were no specialty counsellors.

ERch cabin-

couns e llor group workc~ out its own overall program, including
activities such as archery, crafts, nature, etc.

Each counsellor,

however, assumed a specinlized role in addition to his or her
regular duties.

A malG and female counsellor (bo th lifeguard ex-

am iners) conducted the swimm ing program.

Another person was in

charg e of c2nteen; library~ athletic equipment; ballet class; healt
class, etc.

Counsellors t no k turns in conducting nnd leading even-

ing programs, dependent up on their interests and skills.

They re-

ceived one day off during the week except the opening and closing
weeks of camp.

Pre-camp conference
Two days prior to opening of camp a pre-camp training
course was held at C8ll11p Tall Trees.

Only two days are avail-

able for pre-camp training due to a time element in obtaining
the camp area.

Four days would be highly desirable.

The

nature of the training period was that of having discussion
leaders qualified in certain areas of camp program to present
some of the objectives and values of that particular phase of
camping experience and how each counsellor would fit into the
total picture in making use of this program area.
The history and background of the camping movement as well
as philosophy of camping was discussed by the director.
Health and safety was discussed by the camp doctor.

Swimming

instruction and safety were presented by the life guard
examiner.

Sessions were held on camp routine and schedules,

staff regulations, campcrafts, sports, recordkeeping and
reports, singing, table courtesies, arts and crafts , trips,
and Jewish content in program areas.
in

The films, "School Time

Camp" and "Feeling of Rejection" were shown and discussed.

In almost every tnstance the counsellors participated in the
planning and in the discussion of the counsellor training
course.

In order for the couns ellor

to do a more eff e ctive job and have a more satisfying pe rsonal expe ri enc e at camp , it is r ecomme nd ed tha t the various

�PROGRAI,1MING

Camp Tall Trees is organized as a decentralized co-ed camp
with a counsellor-camper ratio of 1 to 6 -7.

In view of the

American Camping Association standard of 1 to 8 as a mark of
good camping , this ratio is highly satisfactory.
Since the needs and interests of campers vary (age, sex , etc .l
an at tempt was made to

�FOOD
Menu plannin g was aimed at a balance d diet of plain, wholesome food, well cooked and attract ively served . • The primary considera tions were to meet the nutriti onal require ments and provide
adequa te food for the growing chil~.

The food budget , though

predete rmined , was flexib le in that all these criter ia were met
more than adequa tely . Foodst uffs include d moals served in the
dining hall as well as outdoo r cooking , camp partie s, and for
specia l occasio ns. Dietary laws were observ ed. The menus were
set up in consul tation with a dietici an for the entire camp
period prior to the opening of camp .

Variety , nutriti ve value ,

avnila bility of foods and use of left-ov ers were factors considered in the plannin g of _meals. Afterno on snacks were pro~
vided daily and bedtime snacks from time to time .

Dairy products

A deep freeze at camp made it

possible to hold a reserve of four days ' meat supplies at one
time and orders were delivered a day prior to use of the last
day ' s supply .
Health examinatio ns were requirod for the cook and the two
kitchen helpers .

Personal cleanlines s was stressed at all times .

The kitchen and dining hall were scrubbed weekly .

Garbage was

removed daily and whatever remained was burned in an incinera t or.
Plnt6s and utensils were thoroughly cleaned, washed with soap ,

Fly and rodent controls were effected by

the frequent use of insecticid es, and thorough screening of all
doors and windows .

In general, the kitchen and food practices

�HEALTH AND SAFETY
The whole camping experience is closely interwoven with
health, and safety provisions and practices.

One of the import-

ant aims is health improvement, and the dovelopmont of desirable
health habits.

Safety is also a major concern in camp layout as

well as in all phases of the camp program.
Health and safety precautions at Camp Tall Trees were fairly
rigid and the results of these measures were very satisfactory.
In gen0ral, the health and safety of the campers was very good-there were no serious illnesses or accidents.

There were the

usual scratches, bites, bruises, cuts, blisters, abrasions, sore
throats and colds.

However, the number of cases was relatively

�SWIMMING

Safety:
follows:

The qualific ations of the guarding counsel lors were as
two life guard instruct ors, two senior life guards, and

five counsel lors who didn't necessa rily have train:ing or life
saving experien ce.

Each counsel lor was given a specific area of

the pool to guard which best fitted his ability .

The duties of

the guarding counsel lor were to watch his assigned area, to enforce safety regulati ons of the pool, and to give individu al

were to set up safety regulati ons, supervis e guards, organize and
instruct classes.
The Buddy System was employed as a checking device.

Each

camper was assigned a partner and these partners swam together
They were required to stay to-

in the same area of the pool.

gether througho ut the swim and at a whistle which blew at fifteen
minute interval s, they ·were supposed to become quiet and raise
their buddy's hand.

This system proved to be the simples t and

most effectiv e checking method.

A ring buoy and a bamboo pole

were on hand at the pool to use as safety devices .
Classes:

The first day of each period every camper was screened

and placed in an instruct ion class (beginne rs, interme diates,
swimmer s, life saving, and advanced swimmer s),

During the first

and second periods instruct ion was given during the general
swims on the average of three times a week to each class.
great portion of this time was devoted to the beginne rs.

A
There

was some difficu lty in conducti ng classes for the more advanced
swimmers due to overcrow dedness in deep water.

During the third

�period the classes were taken separately for one-half hour every
Monday, Wednesday, and Friday .

Therefore each class had the

same amount of instruction.
At the end of every period Red Cross swimming tests were
given to each class.

The overall results were as follows:

swimmers out of 22 passed
Jr. Life Savers out of 10 passed
advanced swimmers out of 5 passed

Ev8ry person tn camp regardless of wh0ther or not he passed
his test, made a dufinite advancement.
Ev8luation:

standards.

passed two tests.

F'ifteen campers

The system used for the third period was

definitely superior than that used during the first two periods
since the instructor could devote more time to teaching each
class--particularly the more advanced swimmers .

Of all the

classes, the Jr. Life Saving class was the weakest.

This was

due to the lack of time available for instruction since the
pool was sh3red with another agency.
Recommendation:

The greatest problem of the swimming setup is

the inability to have full time use of the pool since it is
shared with the YMCA camp.

More general counsellors qualified

to help in swimming instruction would prove invaluable.

A three

week camping period would facilitate instruction considerably . It
is difficult to conduct a class in a two week period--especially
for beginners.

Separate instruction periods should be the class

arrangement for next year.

�RELIGIOUS SERVICES
We were fortunate in securing a rabbinical student from one
of the schools who , in addition to his religious training, had the
ability to relate to children and help them in planning and
carrying out a religious program for camp at their level .
At the beginning of the camping season an effort was made
to organize the services for Sabbath into a pattern that was
acceptable both to the Reform and Conservative~Orthodox group
in camp.

Because of its greater literary value, as well as its

shortness, the Union Prayer Book service for both days was selecte(
as the model .

The Friday night service consisted of the following :

a . An opening Readers I Prayer which set the tone for the entire
service.
b. A responsive reading from one of the psalms.
c . The Bawrechu, with response by choir and congregation .
d . The Maariv aarawvim in English.
e. The Shema, said by both reader and choir and congregation.
f . The V1 awhavtaw, said in English .
g . The Micawmochaw read responsively by reRder, cholr and
congregation.
h. The shawmroo b'nai Yisroel said in English.
i . A shortened English Amida.
j. A rtsai B 1 mnoohawsaynoo in English .
k. A readers' prayer before the silent prayer.
],. The silent prayer followed by "May the➔ words • .. 11 sung by
choir and congregation.
m. The sermon.
n. 11 May the time not be distant ..• " followed by yom hahoo in
English.
o. Closing Hymn.
p . Benediction, related to the sermon.
The Saturday morning service, though shorter, maintained
basically the same elements, with the exception of the Michawmocha
The Torah service consisted of blessings before and after the
Torah, the first few verses read in Hebrew, and the remainder in
English, the blessings before and after the Haftorah, and a Haf-

torah rela t0d to the Torah section.
each of these.
- 21 ...

Snort explanations preceded

�It will be noted that there was no change from the traditional service at the synagogue or temple of the camper, although,
of course, the service was much shorter.

The Adoration was elimi-

nated as being a distinctively ~eform feature in the regular
service.

Tho basic reasons for maintaining a standard service

wore as follows:
a.
b.
c.
d.

The element of recall was greater, making it easier for
the younger campers to follow the service.
The service would help understanding of the service used
at home, rather than a service that was a completely new
experience.
The readers' prayers added the special camp touch as did
the sermon.
Most so-called camp services examined were filled with
hackneyed phrases, and since the service still had its
basic outlines,the special camp references only made the
s e rvice longer.

A choir was organized to help carry out the service.

Little

emphasts was placed on singing ability, but a great emphasis was
placed on eagerness to learn.

Various types of recognition for

the choir were given, including refreshments at the end of choir
practice, grab-bag parties, and a prominent place in every service.
No songs were taught outside of regular songs for the service because of the shortness of time.

The choir, composed of boys and

girls, averaged between seven and nine members, with usually more
campers applying for choir than there were places for them.

The

individual readers were selected from each counsellor's group and
rehearsed prior to the service.
for them.

The readers' prayers were written

These prayers usually emphasized aspects of camp life

such as cooperation, comradeship, devotion, etc.

The sermon it-

self followed a flexible pattern but generally tended to follow
the following outlines:
a.
b.
c.
d.

Introduction to a general theme
Story illustrating the general theme
Moral of the story
Application of the moral to the camp situation
- 22 -

�The following conclusions can be arrived at from this year I s experience:
a.

b.
c.
d.

The services were generally successful. The greatest
~ey to this was the fact that attendance at services
was not considered a chore, and permission to participate
in them was a coveted honor.
The sermons that were most successful were those that
emphasized the story and "soft pedaled" the moral. The
suspense type of story was the most successful.
The choir rehearsals were rather short; the reward aspect might be deemphasized next year.
The brunt of a succussful service tended to rest on one
person, Moro pa~ticipation in actual organization of
tho service might bo more desirable, although unilateral
direction is more of a coordinating factor.

- 23 -

�MOVIES
Movies were shown weekly to the campers.

The films were

screened and obtained free of charge from the Louisville Public
Library.

The presentations usually lasted an hour.

Special

films were selected for counsellors from time to time. . The
films chosen for the campers were based to meet the varied interests of boys and girls as well as accounting for the different
age groups represented.

They wer~ also selected on the basis of

entertainment value and educational purpose.

Counsellors and

campers had a voice in the selertion of films shown.

The pic-

tures were well received and the campers seemed to enjoy them
very much.

A sampling of the films used were:

This drop might be

attributed in large part to the fine weather during this period.
The third period showed a total checkout of thirty-seven books.
The library system employed at camp s semed very satisfactory.
It was felt t~at the sampling of books was quite adequate, but
that there should have been a greater selection for distribution.

                    <text>Re port of the Nursery School - February, 1941
The purposes of too Nursery School, as operated at the Jewish
Children's Home , 1135 South 1st Street, by the Joint Connnittee
of the Council of Jewish

omen, and the Jewish Welfare Federation,

are based on the latest developments in the knowledge of children,
and their needs .

It bas been said that the foundation of personality

is already firmly established by the time tba child reaches primary
school age .

Assuming this to be only partially true, the importance ,

of providing suitable opportunities for personal growth for children
under the age of 6 is obvious .

Public School systems thru Kinder-

gartens accept children from the age of 5 and some few have lowered
this to include children of 4 because of falling enrollments .
However, generally speaking, the public schools have not yet acc~pted
the obligation of providing adequately supervised learning opportunities for children 2½ to 5 years of age .

As in the case of tbe

development of public schools for older children, the values to be
derived probably will have to be demons t rated by private schools for
a considerable time .
The modern nursery school is a combination nursery and school as
tbs name implies.

It offers the child the good physical care of

the good old-style day nursery, plus the opportunities for learning ,
social adjustment, creative experience, and personality gro~~h.
Play is the child ' s work .

It is thru supervised play that the

child is helped to establish basic habits of work, friendliness ,
order, etc; that is, is helped to develop his own abilities in relation to other people .
The teacher of this type of school must ba.ve special skills .
Increasing tre confidence of the child in his own ability and at
the same time developing the ability to cooperate constructively
with other children is no easy task.

The teacher helps the de -

velopment of routine habits such as washi ng , eating, sleeping ,

�- 2 -

toilet habits which should be performed with a minimum of attention .
Conventional habits of courtesy are taken as a matter of course, and
soon are adopted by the children who learn more by example than by
being told what to do.
uentering attention on

The teacher uses her knowledge of children,
worthwhile behavior, ignoring negative be-

havior, using authority only when necessary in cases of anti-social
behavior, disturbing the group or other children, or when children
are in danger and above all remaining ca lm and collected under all
situations no matter how trying they might be (for that is how the
child learns that calnmess is more effective than anger . )
At the risk of boring you, this brief background of nursery
school principles has been recited in order to emphasize that the
most important function of too nursery school is what it does for
the child as

well as the release of the mother for other activities

such as work, social opportunities, and physical betterment .

Some

parents cannot afford tm tuition of expensive private nursery schools
and do not want to use second-rate cheaper schools operated on nonprogressive and non-constructive lines.
Of course, many, if not most, parents still set public school entrance age as the time to send children to school.

Because of this

parents themselves are reluctant to use exi sting facilities for
younger children, particularly if it means inconvenience in terms of
taking the child to school and bringing him home .

We have found

that in the instances where the child most needed the experience
provided at the school, the parents were least aware of this need,
and in some cases antagonistic to the idea.
parents is an important part of the work of
slow process .

Education of the
the school.

This is a

Mother's meetings now being held regularly is one

step in thi s direction; another consists of individual conferences
with mothers and fathers .

Actual demonstration of the school is

the most successful means of teaching what it accomplishes with

�- 3 childre n.

All are encour aged to visit and see it in operat ion .

As sone of you know, tm school was started as a result of an
initia l letter sent to the Jewish Welfare Federa tion by the fore sighted and connnun ity- niinded Americ anizati on Commi ttee of the
Louisv ille Sectio n of the Nation al Counci l of Jewish ~,omen , Chair.:A --

man , Mrs . Selma Kling , and Vice-C hairma n, Mrs . Kather ine Bottig he i mer .
This letter reads in part, 0 I t has been brough t to the
attenti on of the Americ anizati on commit tee ••• that a distin ct
need bas arisen for a nurser y school to serve section s of the city ' s
popula tion in which the Counci l has a natura l intere st .
school would serve :

This

1 . Pre-sch ool childre n living in the South- Centra l part of the c ty
to whom other nurser y schools are not availab le .
2. Childr en whom social worker s

have recommended and who are not

being cared for by any other nurser y school .
3 . Immigr ant childre n of pre - school age who will use the school in
learnin g Englis h and genera l orient ation.

• •

• •
There is availab le a trained

nurser y school teache r whom the

Counci l is willing to sponso r in the establ sbment of the above
describ ed school if the Jewish Welfar e Federa tion sees fit to accede
to the f ollowin g reques t :
That the Counci l of Jewish Women be permit ted to use the facilit ies
of the playroo m, small dining room, lavato ry and outdoo r playgro und
with equipm ent of the Jev1ish Childr en's Home .

The 8ounci l expect s

to meet

any additio nal expens e incurre d in the prepar ation of lunche s
for tm childre n plus a per capita sum to the Home to cover the cost
of food • • • • •
The locatio n of the HonB and the facili ties afford ed are so ideal
and invest igation has r evealed an urgent and increa sing need in this
community for this type of service .
We believe that vrith your co-

�- 4 operation a l"eal service can be rende l:'ed the connnunity • •• "
This letter is truly worthy of the fine tl"adition s of social
service developed by the Louisvill e Section r£ tbe National
Council of Jewish Women .

The willingne ss to pioneer in a com-

paratively new field cannot be praised too highly.

Continued

negotiatio ns between the Council and Federatio n led to establishm ent
of a Joint Committee to operate the Nursery School with the agreement that the Federatio n would provide tbe space and general
facilities arrl the Council would meet any expenses in excess of the
tuition fees.
The initial nursery school equipment was to be
furnished by the Council .
On February 5 , 1940, the Nursery School was opened with brave
hopes for the future .
really too soon to tell .
tremendou sly.

Hgve these hopes become realities?

It is

We know we have helped individua l children

In our opinion, this makes the school worthwhil e .

We know we ba.ve helped some mothers to undel:'stan d better the needs of
their children .
Working mothers have been relieved of worry about
theil" children' s care .

We have helped children shy and uncertain

when they entered school to become confident and

self-asse rtive .

We have helped children to learn to get along with other children,
to engage in cooperativ e undertaki ngs, to eat properly, to dress
themselve s, to use their abilities in c r eative experienc e in painting,
clay modeling, block buil ing, music and rhythm, to speak English.
The school is open from 9 to 2 :30 daily from Monday thru Friday.
The children play and work indoors and outdoors , rest , have fruit
juice an:l cod liver oi l , listen to music and rhythms, tell stories ,
have discussion s , eat lunch arrl

have a two hour nap, milk and

crackers and dress themselve s to go home .
is

followed carefully .

Each child's developme nt

Children have and use their own clothes

cupboard am shelf for pe:rsonal belonging s such as cup and comb.

�A tuition fee of $1 . 75 per week was charged the first semester
from February to June.

There was no school during the SUil1Iller .

Since

September 9, when too 2nd semester started, a tuition fee of $2 . 00 per
week ms been charged.

Originally it was thought tba.t a maximum at-

tendance of 10 children daily was all that could be accommodated .
After the schoo+ had been in existence several months, the Connnittee
then decided that tbs attendance should be enlarged to 15, for with
adequate space ar.d facilities it seemed that more children should be
given the opportunity to benefit from this training .
maximum attendance ms not been attained .

As yet this

we believe that the school

is still in a period of development and tbat success with thEfhildren
we have will bring new enrollments .
in a few instances.

This has already been demonstrated

Tentative applications have been made for several

children when they reach the Nursery School age.
transportatio n is a difficult one .

The problem of

Children in other neighborhood s

would come if transportatio n could be arranged.

The committee is still

working for a solution of this problem.
From February to June 1940, there was an enrollment of 18 different
children who c ame for varying lengths of time.

From September thl'u

December, 16 different children were enrolled.

The major reasons for

the enrollment in the spring semester were as follows {some children
are listed under two reasons)
Social and personality adjustment - 12 {This means the parents wanted
the children to learn personal
habits, play with other
children, etc.)
Poor neighborhood and playmates - 2
Speak English - 3
Working mother - 8
Health problem - 3
In the fall semester these were as follows:
Social and personality adjustment - 7

�- 6 -

Poor neighborhood and playmates - 2
Working mother - 6
Health problem - 2
Children who left school, did so

for the following reasons:

Entering 1st grade public school - 1
Entering kindergarten - 4
Lack of transportation - 3
Temporary enrollment due to illness of parents - 2
Each instance in which we have helped children is. a separate story.
A few will serve to illustrate :
J . entered school at the age of 4 in February, 1940 .

Her mother,

who has been very cooperative in carrying out plans for J . helped in
the family store .

The neighborhood in which the family lived was

chiefly colored.

When J . first came to school, she was shy and had

a strong feeling of insecurity.

She had trouble dressing herself ,

refused to talk with people she did not know well, was a feeding and
sleeping problem at home .

She now has lost most of her shyness,

eats well , sleeps better and takes care of herself completely.

She

is much more sure of herself and is ready to start in kindergarten.
This case is typical of several others, shy, uncertain, ill-at-ease ,
with feelings of inferiority who have been helped considerably at school .
A scholarship

case is R. who entered school for a short tim in May

and then returned this fall .
standards.

R. is

3½- years old , from a home of poor

He had no playmates and no possibility for outdoor play

when first admitted.

Since then the family have moved to better

quarters .

R. is a very nervous overactive child , very rough in his

behavior.

At home he has no restrictions and

practically all the timeo

gets his own way

His mother is lazy and does not want to be

bothered carrying out any plans for him.

Until transportation thru a

friend was arranged, she did not bothar to send him even tho be was
very anxious to go and she was anxious to have him go .

R. needed to

get along with other children , presenting numerous pro-

blems of social adjustment and cooperation.
·jumping from one thing to anothel:'.

He was very flighty ,

He is now much quieter and able

to stick to one thing for a longer period of time .

He still needs

close supervision as he easily hurts himself and others.

without

help at this time, he would present a serious problem by the time he
got to public school.
Several of the children present this type of problem.

Their

best help can come at this early age .
The cases of most

interest to the Council are, of course, those

of the refugee children attending the school .

a 4 year old boy attended school in February as a scholarship

case shortly after his arrival in this country.

He was a natural

He needed help in learning English

He learned in an amazingly quick period of time

and now attends kindergarten where he is doing extremely well .
K. is a 3 year old scholarship girl who entered school in February,
1940.

She was a baby in every respect when she started school baving

been accepted at too earliest admiss~on age.

She would not eat un-

less fed by someone, she could not dress herself, she spoke no English
and practically none was spoken at home .
Now she

She was shy and timid .

takes care of herself completely , feeds herself , dresses her-

self, speaks English, ms a mind of her own, assumes responsibilities ,
and can be considered a normal happy 3 year old .
M. is now a 4 year old child who entered school in February, 1940.
She was otll' most serious !ll'Oblem at

the time of her admission.

She

and her family have been thru some rather terrifying experiences and
the effects on her were particularly marked.

If another child so much as looked in her direction ,

she ro uld s brink and hide in a co rner .
plays by herself a good deal .

Now she is still quiet and

However, she plays with other

children occasiona lly, arrl enjoys it .

She builds very well and

likes to tell tbe other children what s he has built (which is part
of the school program); sbe tolls stories at story time, telling
about her summer vacation, things at home , and sometimes mentions
the country f r om which she came .

She speaks English well .

would consider her a good pup i l who gets along well .

We

we believe

the scbool has saved her from many serious personali ty difficult ies .
These cases are enough to illustrate the work of the school and
its beneficia l effects .
In addition, the teacher at the . School is a German refugee who
obtained kindergar ten training in Germany and additiona l nursery
school training in this country.

We feel that the provision of

employmen t for b.Gr tbru the establishm ent of the Nursery school is
in line with the aims of the Council in relation to work with New
Americans .

This fine work of t he school bas cost the Council to

January 1st, 1941 as f ollows:
$107 . 00 approxima tely for capital outlay to get the school started .
This includes all major equipment not at the Home orig inally, and
will not have to be replaced .

total $ 200 . 00 to carry the Nursery School to February , 1942 .
remainder will be provided by the tuition at the School.

Preference for

scholarships , as in the past , will be given to refugee children.

                  <text>This collection consists of documents and photographs related to Jewish experiences in the Holocaust and World War II, Jewish American efforts to support refugees, and historical memory of the Holocaust in Kentucky and Southern Indiana. This digitization project is in partnership with the Louisville Ballet's &lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.louisvilleballet.org/a-time-remembered/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;A Time Remembered&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/em&gt;performance, which marks the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau.
&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Holocaust-era family documents center on the Wolff, Levy, and Ackermann families who escaped to the United States from France and Austria, and ultimately settled in Louisville. Passports provide photographs of the family members and track their movements through countries. Letters document their efforts to navigate the administrative barriers to passage, and the tragic fate of relatives who were not approved to leave.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Records from the National Council of Jewish Women, Louisville Section document the organization's activist work in fundraising for and directly serving refugees in the city, and political organizing around national immigration policies and economic boycotts of German-made goods. The collection includes sample correspondence from national organizations and individuals who supported and were against Zionism in response to the violent antisemitism of the Holocaust. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The final items in the collection document Holocaust memorial events in the 1990s. Invitations, photographs, scripts, press releases, and articles represent the memorialization work of the Jewish Community Center, Jewish Community Federation of Louisville, &lt;span&gt;Louisville Ballet, Louisville Orchestra, and other  organizations.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</text>

                  <text>Drawing from many historical collections at the Filson Historical Society, First American West incorporates maps, diaries, letters, ledgers, and objects. The collection documents the travels of the first Europeans to enter the trans-Appalachian West, the maps tracing their explorations, their relations with Native Americans, and their theories about the region's mounds and other ancient earthworks. Naturalists and other scientists describe Western bird life and bones of prehistoric animals. Books and letters document the new settlers' migration and acquisition of land, navigation down the Ohio River, planting of crops, and trade in tobacco, horses, and whiskey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The First American West: The Ohio River Valley, 1750-1820 consists of 15,000 pages of original historical material documenting the land, peoples, exploration, and transformation of the trans-Appalachian West from the mid-eighteenth to the early nineteenth century.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>Drawing from many historical collections at the Filson Historical Society, First American West incorporates maps, diaries, letters, ledgers, and objects. The collection documents the travels of the first Europeans to enter the trans-Appalachian West, the maps tracing their explorations, their relations with Native Americans, and their theories about the region's mounds and other ancient earthworks. Naturalists and other scientists describe Western bird life and bones of prehistoric animals. Books and letters document the new settlers' migration and acquisition of land, navigation down the Ohio River, planting of crops, and trade in tobacco, horses, and whiskey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The First American West: The Ohio River Valley, 1750-1820 consists of 15,000 pages of original historical material documenting the land, peoples, exploration, and transformation of the trans-Appalachian West from the mid-eighteenth to the early nineteenth century.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
