YOUNG PEOPLE'S MINYAN TO RESUME OCTOBER 22nd The Young People's Minyan will resume conducting its own services on Sunday morning, October 22nd; at 9:30, in the Chapel. This is the activity which affords the opportunity for young people to meet at worship in a wellplanned service that is attractively presented to be appealing to all who attend. It is also an opportunity for the fathers to join their sons and daughters at
a
religious service
morning of the week which is free from business responsibilities and other obligations.

Visitors to our building within re¬ weeks were most pleasantly surprised when they viewed the So¬ cial Hall. Since the High Holidays, a redecorating job was done there which renders our Hall one of the most beautiful to be found anywhere in the city. The carpeting, wall-paper¬ ing, draperies and color scheme are something to behold. Affairs which were held in the Social Hall since the work was completed, left our guests with a highly favorable impression, and laudatory comments were heard from even the most exacting people. The appearance of our banquet hall plus the appointment of StemWeiss lead to the conclusion that for cent
weddings and bar mitzvahs there few places in the city to offer the elegance and accommodations that we have. We are prepared to take are
of your catering needs — from modest kiddush to an elaborate

A report rendered
by the Treasur¬ er, Hyman I. Bucher, at last Tues¬ day's meeting of the Men's Club Executive Committee, revealed a startling fact: during the year end¬ ing last August 31st, close to $3000 was appropriated to numerous ben¬ evolent causes. Some of the recip¬ ients of larger gifts were: Ramaz School Scholarship Aid Program, $1000; Scholarship Fund of the Re¬ ligious School, $500; Camp Fund for sending underprivileged children to summer camps, $200; and over $1000 was distributed to such causes as Yorkville Passover Relief Fund, United Jewish Appeal, and the like.
That, it
appears to us, is something be proud of. To every member who contributed to this fine record, goes a firm hand-shake and a hearty Congratulations on a remarkable to
