NEARLY NEW SHOP IS OPERATING
By PAUUNE KAH>r
Nearly Mew shop Is refreshed, refurnished and ready for the new season of 1967-58. Saturday, Oct. 26, marked the opening date for Council of Jewish W^oroen's Nearly New Shop at 213 K. Main St., and Mrs. Sidney Berg, ohaliir man, and her "Shop" board and workers feverishly prepared for Council's only money-m a k 1 n g campaign. All monies realized from the project are used to sup¬ plement Council's annual budget without pressuring the outside community to support the organi¬ zation financially by other means of fund raising.
Therefore, it behooves every Council member to do her part to help support the Nearly New Shop. That can be done by "Bundles for Council" in the form of unwanted clothing, furniture, drapes, carpets, knt.ck-knacks, etc.
A "Council Barrel" is stationed at Jensen Dry Cleaners, 2096 K. Main St. Any soiled clothing do¬ nated to Council will be cleaned free of charge by Jensen's as a service and tribute to Council. All members 'need to do is take clothing there. That assures fresh merchandise to sell in the Nearly New Shop.
Only through the cooperation of its members can Columbus Council of Jewish Women do an outstanding job. Mrs. Irving Shuster and Mrs. Oscar Weston are in charge of workers. Women are needed aa saleswomen, cash¬ iers, markers. Volunteers should contact Mrs. Shuster, BE. s-6618. The shop is open every Tuesday. Thursday and Saturday, 9 a. m. to 3 p. m., and workers may choose the time and day most convenient for them.
Anyone having merchandise to have picked up should corttact Mrs. Vincent Mccurlo, chairman, (continued oa pase S>
