orphans, and to strengthen characterbuilding agencies, Goldman stressed the necessity for making this "an allyear-round" campaign. ' I t is not sufficient to collect our pledges and say we are through. We should become a self-appointed army of Jewish workers, educating the Jewish people of the community with the vital work of the Philanthropies, keeping the spirit of the Philanthropies and the Jewish cause alive throughout the year." * Justin Wolf gave the other principal address. "The institutions benefitting from the Philanthropies are the life and soul and blood of everything the Jew holds dear to him," he stated. "In the unifying principle of a Jewish campaign can be found the one bond that holds all Jews together, regardless of social or religious affiliations." He urged the need of building now, so as to counteract persecutions of the future. Short talks were given by Mrs. Jeanette Arnstein, Max M. Barish, and J. S. Pearlstein. First Report Luncheon David Goldman presided at the first report luncheon held Tuesday noon. The majors and divisional heads made their reports, amounting to $15,863.50, or approximately forty per cent of the quota, on the first day. "Harry A. Wolf gave the address t& the first luncheon. "After our splendid work thus far," he pleaded, "let's not allow our enthusiasm to die. Times are not easier, but the Jewish heart is softer, because our people are impressed with the present distressful situation. "Don't get discouraged if some of those solicited rebuff you. Those who are able to give but do not answer the call of the hour are to be pitied." Abner Kaiman led community singing at all report luncheons. T:r--:day Luncheon The total turned in by the report luncheon on ""^sday was $20,674.75. Max Barish presided at this meeting. Henry Monsky, veteran of many campaigns, gave an inspirational address, urging the workers to sell the prospects on the needs of the beneficiaries and to persist as tenaciously as workers of the initial gifts did. "The campaign has resolved itself into a que?tion of staying on the. job and enthusiastically carrying' the message of the Jewish Philanthropies into every Jewish home. "Conditions stimulate rather than retard giving:. The situation as depicted is not campaign propaganda, and if the contributors urtdergive, it is your fault and not the prospect's," Sunday Evening Dr. M. Hexter of Palestine spok-: to a large group at the Jewish Community Center Sunday evening, A former member of the Harvard faculty and a former president of the National Bureau of Social Workers, he in now a member of the Palestine executive of the Jewish Agency. A large number of women workers attended the program and tea at the Center Friday afternoon. H. A. Wol! gave the pep talk. Little Philip Sokolof entertained with songs and dances. Radio talent also featured the program, which included piano selections by John Kowalski.

Bazaar for Benefit of National Fund A bazaar for the benefit of the Jewish National .fund will be sponsored by the Daughters of Zion at the Jew* ish Comm-cmity Center, Sunday, May 21. Sandwiches and pop will be sold. The organization hopes to raise its quota through this affair and a card party next month.
