The burning of the mortgage of the Beth Hamedrcsh Hagodol Synagogue will take place on the Synagogue grounds at Nineteenth and Burt streets, Monday evening, May 11, at eight o'clock. The congregation was first organized forty years ago and was then known as Beth Israel Synagogue with the first place of worship located at Twelfth and Jackson streets. Later the Synagogue moved to Thirteenth and Williams and sometime later built a small Synagogue on Thirteenth and Pierce. Mr. Moses Hurwitz of South Omaha and Mr. Jake Kendis of Los Angeles, Calif., are the two members living who were the first organizers of this congregation. The present Synagogue building was erected thirteen years ago when Mr. Michael Kulakofsky was president. At that time the name of the congregation was changed to Beth Hamedrosh Hagodol Synagogue. The Beth Hamedrosh Hagodol Synagogue now has a membership of more than one hundred and twenty members. The Synagogue building is valued at more than $35,000. The congregation also owns the Beth Hamedrosh cemetery. Mr. M. Gross, who for a number of years has been president of the congregation, has been an untiring worker in building up the congregation. Mr. A. G. Weinstein is now president of the Synagogue.
