TRUE BENEVOLENCE
The well known quotation "He that hath a benevolent eye shall be blessed, for he giveth of his bread to the poor" is Indeed exemplified year after year by our people when the Charity Newsies launch their fund raising campaign.
Among those who had contributed generously to this worthy cause were Messrs. Harry and Max Sllberstein of the Columbus Pipe & Equipment Co., the I^eo Marks Chari¬ table Trust and Marvin Glassman of the Green and Yellow Cab Co.
The Columbus Jewish Community can well be proud of these public spirited individuals whose liberal contribu¬ tions to human welfare have always shed lustre not only upon themselves, but to the entire 'House of Israel' as well.
