As an expression of the gratitude and thanks of the congregation to the officers and membership of the First Presbyterian Church of Atlanta for hospitality and courtesy extended to the Hebrew Benevolent Congregation, two beautiful silver vases were pre sented to that congregation by the of ficers of the Temple on behalf of the Board and membership.
