The Atlanta chapter of Senior lladas-
sah held their annual membership tea
with more than three hundred women
gathered to hear about the activities of
the Woman's Zionist Organization. Due
to the presence of an out-of-town guest
speaker all business was dispensed with.
A program portraying the zeal and
ardor of Hadassah workers was pre
sented bv Mrs. S. A. Goldberg, Mrs.
B. Travis, Mrs. A. Rosenfeld, Mrs. J.
Silver, Mrs. H. Mattel, Mrs. H. Taylor
and Mrs. L. Isaacson.
The speaker, Mrs. George Winer of
Chattanooga, l'enn., was introduced by
Mrs. S. K. Levy, Southern Regional
Chairman. Mrs. Winer kept her audience
enraptured by her vivid word picture of
life in Palestine as observed by her in a
prolonged visit. The hardships and self-
denial experienced by the Chalutzim are
more or less self-imposed so that the
cultural and material progress of the
country may be hastened, Mrs. Winer
informed her listeners. Tel Aviv, the all
Jewish city doubled her population from
1931 to 1933 and now has 80,000 Jews
living there enjoying their heritage. No
matter from what part of the globe the
Jew comes from, in Palestine all national
ities are obliterated and they become “just
Jews.” The influx from Germany ha*
been great, numbering among them thirty
of the most prominent doctors in every
field of medicine who have associated
themselves with the Hebrew University
Hospital or have taken charge of some
health center in a colony. Dr. Halber-
stater, renowned cancer specialist ha*
joined the University Hospital perma
nently and has brought his own radium.
Hadassah, more than ever, contributes
to the health and culture of Palestine,
while at the same time imparting a love
for knowledge of the history and mission
of the Jewish people over the Diaspora.
At this time, when the Jewish people
realize that once a Jew, always a Jew,
this noble organization offer* a dignified
opportunity to be of real service to them
selves.
Twenty-two years ago Henrietta Szold
gave the world “Hadassah." After much
work and heartache her staunch little
group made possible the sending of two
trained nurses to Palestine to shed a ray
of light in the malaria and trachoma in
fested country. Today, with the help
of a fifty thousand membership, there are
five large hospitals, twenty three infant
welfare, nurses training schools; in fact
all practical help is given. Their latest
project is the University Hospital, of
which fund Mrs. Edward Jacobs i* Gen
eral Chairman.
Hadassah welcomes all Jewish women
to their ranks, and once a Hadassah
member, the women feel that they receive
more from the work for Eretz Israel than
which they give.
V
Edward M. Kahn, executive director
of the Jewish Educational Alliance, an
nounced a scries of girls' clubs and
classes under the supervision of Helen
Sehulman, recently appointed director of

ence a* a Ciirl Scout and a* a leader of

camping activities included five years at
