Irnia I,. I.liidhi'im
Columlius Senior Hada.ssah Is bringing to Columbus one of the nation's outstanding speak¬ ers Monday,. Nov. 10, 8 P.M., at the Broad St. Tempi.e. She is Mrs. Irma L. Lindheim, of New York City, former National president of Hada.s.sah and long indenti- fied with the Zionist cause.
The regular meeting date was changed in order to obtain the services of Mrs. Lindheim, one of the most sought for speakers touring the country today in the interest of the Zionist cause.
Born in the United States and a staunch believer in the Ameri¬ can pioneering spirit Mrs. Lind¬ heim has identified the early struggle for nationhood in this country with the similar struggle pf Jews in Palestine to ci-eate a national homeland.
She was president of Hadas¬ sah In 192fi after Henrietta Szold, the organization's founder, went to Palestine. She served until 1928. Simultaneously, she was also vice president of the Zionist Organization of America and a member of the actions committee of the World Zionist organiza¬ tion.
Mrs. Lindheim has made six trips to Palestine and is well in¬ formed on the national homeland issue.
Hadassah members are urged to attend and to bring their friends and neighbors, Jew and non-Jew. This is one meeting Columbus women cannot afford to miss.

ucational Building Committee Chairman, the cornerstone lay¬ ing ceremonies for the new Ti¬ fereth Israel Congregation School and Recreation Building will take place on Sunday, Nov. 23rd, at 2:30 P. M. It will mark an important milestone on the onward path of Columbus Jewry in guiding its youth, combining the best aspects of the traditions and, heritage of Judaism in a mod¬ ern American manner and set¬ ting. Consti-uction of the new building is proceeding rapidly and the present schedule calls for occupancy sometime during Aprd, 1948.
At its very inception in ISOI, the founding fathers of Temple Tifereth Israel decided that a modern conservative form of Jewish worship was both appro¬ priate and appealing. The aim of conservative Judaism is to offer the .American Jewish com¬ munity.the traditional form and spirit of Judaism in the modern American manner. The building of this new educational center marks the culmination of that aim. Today, .Tifereth Israel has the-' lai'gest membership of any congregation in the city of Co¬ lumbus and is still growing. This is a real tribute to the fore¬ sight of its membei'ship, both in selecting, the present site of the Temple proper and in plan¬ ning the new building now un¬ der construction.
Founders of Temple
Following are the names of the charter members responsi¬ ble for the founding of Congre¬ gation Tifereth Israel: Max L. Bayer, Emil Kohn, Louis R. Pol¬ ster, Morris Polster, I. H. Schlez¬ inger, Samuel J. Wasserstrom and Jacob Stern.
