It is an old custom amongst Jewish children, to become war-like on the 'L'ag Beomer.' They arm themselves from head to foot with wooden swords, pop-guns and bows and arrows. They take food with them, and go off to wage war.
They say that children become men, and men become children. Many generations have grown up, become men, and gone hence.
Ah, how many luxuries has the good God prepared for his Jewish children.
