Nayland: Magazine of the "Kinderland" Summer Camp

Description:

"Published on the fourth Nayland Yontif", which to say, four years since the first Nayland summer camp. By this time, the camp was run by and for the members of the Arbeter Ring splinter group who ran the "Umpartayishe" Shuln. Even before the formal schism and the founding of the I.W.O., the 'right' (that is the non-I.W.O. aligned) faction of the Arbeter Ring purchased land and started their own camp. Contents: "Let it be Built" by Yakov Levin. The Nayland Constitution. Greetings from the directorate, from the teachers, the adult committee, the schools, from Yosef (Joseph) Opatoshu. Articles, poems, and reminiscences about the camp. Photos of handwork, the lake, the kindergarden group perched on a hayrick, the baseball field, the new theater building, several pictures of dancers and dancing. Children's compositions. Camp Songs. Parodies and chants. Bits and pieces (humor). Greetings and advertisements including from the Jewish bakery and other local Poughkeepsie businesses that supply the camp. Graphic (page 3) shows a decorated hammer and sickle appearing in a lyre. Last page contains a list of addresses of all branches. Cover illustration by M. Barkin. Camp address on back cover. There is also a different Camp Nayland that ran in Gilette, NJ from 1928-1930 that was associated with the Workmen's Circle and Mendel Elkin.
