The Youth Movement<br />

Contributing to the achievements of local youth<br />

in the beginning of Polish sovereignty [late 19181<br />

was a group of intellectual youths from the nearby<br />

town of Chelm, who had political experience and<br />

who often stayed over in our town. These young<br />

people, mostly members of Poale Tsion or the<br />

Bund, awakened our youth to political activities<br />

and lively debates on relevant topics. Among<br />

them was a young poet, Mechele Ribayzen, who<br />

elicited both our curiosity and a sense of awe.<br />

Under the influence of these fellows we began<br />

reading socialist literature; we lustily sang the<br />

songs "Hulyet, Hulyet Beize Vinten" ("Whirl,<br />

Whirl You Angry Winds") by Avrom Reisen,<br />

"Hemerl, Hemerl Klap" ("Pound Away, Little<br />

Hammer") by Y. L. Peretz, etc. We also often sang<br />

the romantic song:<br />

Black eyes radiate fire<br />

And your eyes are so dark!<br />

You've thrown a red-hot spark into<br />

My own true boyfriend's heart.
