The Hebrew Benevolent and Orphan
Asylum Society was instituted in 1850.
From O small beginning, the work of
the institution has grown to one Of the
most far-reaching and truly benevolent
in New Jersey. Situated on q COM
handing knoll and facing On Clinton
avenue. one Of Newark's most ex-
elusive thoroughfares, the handsome
structure of the HON enables the
young inmates to enjoy the most re-
freshing environment and to attain
man or womanhood under the most de-
sirable auspices.
President Joseph Goetz and his as
sociates on the board Of directors have
made It an ideal institution, and its re-
markable success can be attributed to
the officers and the members of the
society, who have jointly spared no
efforts in making 1t a home, sweet
home" in the ruest sense to the boys
and girls who have come under Its
protecting arm.
