  jacob d. brand "kinian sefarim" A very interesting institution in Baranow was that of "Kinian Sefarim" (The purchase and maintenance of the religious books in the Bes Midrosh.) This institution was unique in that it was administered entirely by boys be-twecn the ages of 12 and 18.

Meetings were conducted in the best democratic traditions and the interest of youth ...

  ... with nesting birds flying over their tops and green meadows spreading in all directions. The powerful scents of the flowering plants confused the senses and for a moment I imagined myself leaving the line, going up to the moist grass, still covered with dew and stretching out full-length on it to enjoy the perfume of the field. Harsh shrieks of "Links! Links!" (Left! Left!) jerked me back into reality. Would I ever again be able to enjoy the pure, free air un-disturbed ?
