It I shines through when she talks with zest about Israel, the land she helped to build. With sadness she speaks of its problems today. About her own personal life and her divorce from Moshe Dayan, Israel's charismatic defense minister, she is matter of fact. And her newly published book, "And Perhaps ," (Harcourt Brace is a diary of a country and the people who helped make it a place to call home. It is not a plea for sympathy. ''The book was nearly finished before my divorce," Ruth said. "I wrote it because I felt there was so much forgotten about the roles people played when Israel was growing. Even our children don't understand." And so she wrote the life story of on the farms, kibbutz life where children and parents of many , nationalities lived together and the children were cared for while parents contributed their efforts towards making a land of red clay and rock lush and productive. a book well worth reading because, without excessive drama, U tells the story of a determined people from many parts of the wrld meeting a seemingly insurmountable challenge and conquering it. Yet it is the personal story of Ruth and Moshe, too, and how they grew as individuals in their respective roles while in spite of their marriage and not because of their missions disintegrated. When Ruth Dayan talks about her homeland and the problems that hae bocome a yay of life for the Israelis, she also talks with understanding of the Arab inhabitants.

But in this case it's difficult not to. The first time I met Ruth Dayan was on the day that Lvi Eshkol, then Israel's prime minister, died. I was in Tel Aviv and had been invited by Mrs. Dayan to a reception that evening. When I heard the news of the prime minister's death, I knew the reception would not take place. I was visiting friends in Tivon, a suburb of Haifa. But I felt I should get back to Tel Aviv right away. When I got to my hotel, I was told that Ruth Dayan was waiting for me in the lobby. :e is a gracious lady. And she came to the hotel as a courtesy since the reception was canceled. I had the kind of cold that made the nose leak like a faulty faucet. And right in the middle of our talk she said, "You should be up in yoiu room having soup and tea; not here talking to me." I laughed and said she sounded like a Jewish mother. And she replied simply, "I am a Jewish mother." And that's Ruth Dayan, the woman who in 1954 started Maskit, the handcraft industry of Israel, which gave employment to so many and winch she siill heads. People came to Israel from all over the world. Many spoke no Hebrew. Many were from lands where a radio, much less a computer, was like something from outer space. They were educated in the old ways in handcrafts where machintry had no place. And it was Ruth arts whrh brought much prestige to , rael. And she is loved by many. Now she is chairman of Brit Bnei Shem, an organization created to improve understanding between Arabs and Jews. She has always believed that no peace can come to the Middle East through negotiations by people from outside. "We have got to do it ourselves," she maintains. "The Arabs won't sit down and talk peace. If they would there would be peace. "But no single Arab leader can afford to be the first to talk with us," she admitted. As for marriage, Ruth Dayan has a definite opinion. "It isn't the right institution any more. Man is not monogamous. Friendship is a very important thing and you lose that when two people feel 'imprisoned.' Very few can make a go of it. "Maybe the matchmakers of old really knew what it was all about," she said. "In some way they had to be psychologists and certainly they had to be objective. "I know a few people who were married by matchmakers and who have turned out to be ideal couples . . ." She is not bitter about her divorce. "It's a great strain to be married to a public figure," she admitted. "I just wanted to be on my own no guards outside the door, no legend to have to live MAX WEAVER, above, was one of the judges for the all high school Art Show which will be held Feb. 3, 1974 at the Springville Museum of Art.
