Camera-track file (last of four consecutive files) from the June 2017 session in Ger with Henryk Prajs, an elderly Polish Yiddish speaker. He sings a humorous song about a cow, which Polish Jews who had gone to Palestine supposedly composed. Kerler and Prajs then talk about age and health, his Yiddish reading and the prewar Yiddish press, and Prajs sings the cow song again; the file ends with Kerler describing the team's travels.
Prajs sings a humorous song about a cow, introducing it as made up by Polish Jews who went to Palestine and founded a cooperative or kibbutz with cows and carts. He says he cannot remember all of it. Kerler repeats a line from it about fields sown with buckwheat.
Prajs and Kerler talk about age. Kerler gives his own age, and Prajs says he is a young man. They discuss longevity, medicine and how many people now reach a hundred. Prajs says he himself is in his nineties and still fairly well.
Prajs says his eyesight is too poor for reading, and Kerler asks to see his Yiddish books. He says he has only a prayer book and no special Yiddish books, then names Yiddish writers he knew, among them Peretz. He recalls lecturing to children and being among the better pupils in cheder. Kerler asks about a song about black cherries. Prajs does not know it, and they discuss the prewar Yiddish press, including the dailies Haynt and Moment and literary pages.
Prajs distinguishes the Yiddish papers Haynt and Moment, mentioning Katzenelson (?). Kerler thanks him and wishes everyone health and another meeting. A short exchange about leaving something behind as a good deed follows.
Kerler asks him to sing the cow song again, and Prajs sings it through with its refrain about the fields and the flutes.
Kerler tells Prajs about the team's trip of seven thousand kilometres through Transcarpathia, Mukachevo, Uzhhorod, Solotvyno, Lviv, Lublin, Krakow and Legnica. They discuss the few Jews still living in Legnica and a sick man there. A Polish remark follows that it is a great pleasure to speak Yiddish with Prajs, and the file closes with garbled place names.
