Beautiful Tablet, In B'nai B'rith Infirmary at Denver, Was Recently Unveiled
Amidst Impressive Ceremonies
This tablet stands as a testimonial to the idealism and public spirit of one of Columbus' finest citizens — a man who lives (or the good of others as well as himself. Edwin J. Schanfarber has translated into the realm of practical affairs the finest ideals of the ages.
Towards the advancement of the exalted principles and purposes of the Indepenilent Order of B'nai B'rith he has devoted his best ener¬ gies. Every aspect of the tremendous projects inauf^irated by the I. O. B. B. has received his full measure of support. "To the Niitional Jewish Hospital at Denver, however, he has been particularly generous.
It is safe to say that without his cooperation the beautiful infirmary Building at Denver would still have been only a dream.
