fascinating places as stops on the tour.
One is assured a comprehensive tour
of Palestine, witnessing the modern im

usually overlooked in other tours.

tour phone your local chairman.

Bain bridge, Ga.
• Bainbridge, Georgia, boasts of a rare
distinction. The Jewish community has
been enlarged by three recent additions
that were found in the pipe organ at the
synagogue. This birthplace extraordinaire
does not purport to displace a manger or
stable in the annals of history, nor will
the babe in the woods,” because of their
singular birthplace, typify the mythical
1 an. 1 hree little kittens may have lost
their mittens, but three little kittens found
in the pipe organ have gained a Jewish
home, having been adopted by one of the
members of the congregation, and have
been awarded the names of Abraham,
Isaac and Rebecca (Jacob was originally
dubbed the third, but the error was cor
rected).
