CONGREGATION
ANSHEI ISRAEL

At the last meeting of the Con-
gregation there was discussion
of the desirability of public Sc
der for those who are away from
home. The discussion emphasized
that the public Seder would not
be a substitute for home Seder.
Mr.. Samuel Feinman was ap-
pointed committee chairman to
proceed with plans to develop a
panel of persons to carry out or
thodox burial rituals.
Mr.. Meyer Cohen was made the
head of a committee to work with
the Rabbi and shochet in main
tanning a complete supervision of
the killing of poultry and meats,
to assure kosher procedure.
The congregation is seeking a
combined Cantor -shochet. The du-
ties as a Cantor will include the
organization and training of a
choir for Sabbath and High Holi-

DO YOU KNOW?
Spiegel'S Market

So that their customers may be
served fully, Spiegels take special
orders for gefilte fish and cheese
blintzes. That they are delicious
is proven by the fact that a large
group of customers order regu-
larly.
The busy family need not de-
prive themselves of the pleasure
of eating such good food. And it
might be added that the novice
cook who has temerity at at
tempting such dishes can also
serve them. Blintzes can solve
the problem of what to serve
luncheon guests. Orders are TAX
en- by phone.
Spiegels has a complete delica-
lessen, meat and grocery depart
ment. Here you will find those
delicacies you might have forgot
ten you once enjoyed, like herring
of all kinds, halvah, and, of course,
such things as lox and smetina.

WASHINGTON WIRE


Perhaps you don't know it, but
the basis of Senator McKellar'S
case against public servant Lii
enthal was based on an anony-
nous letter marked by the anti
Semitic venom and recklessness
1ibe1-dexterity characteristic of
the lunatic fringe. Other mem
bers of the committee, in receipt
of duplicates of the same letter,
laughed it out of session. Nickel
lar, sedulously seeking to link
Lilienthal with communism, is
said to have recommended for
IVA employment woman who
later was identified as member
of the Communist party. Drag
ging Lilienthal thru the mire of
witchhunting, helped to enhance
his reputation. Thus, the attempt
of the poison pen correspondents
of McKellar to libel all Jews by
maligning Lilienthal, has had the
reverse effect of underscoring the
integrity of Jews in public ser
vice.
ITEM
From Leonard Lyons Broadway
column:
Curt Riess, the correspondent
and author of books on Nazi es-
pionage, was at the Overseas Press
Club where he told of interview
ing Field Marshal Kesselring on
We Day. The Field Marshal was
busy signing a number of docu-
ments. Riess glanced at them and
noticed that they began: ''In the
name of the Fuerher" 'This
war is over, and there is no Fueh-
rer," Riess told him +. "Those
are decorations" Kesselring ex-
planned. '"They should have been
awarded a long time ago. I've
been too busy to sign them" =.
And there, under Allied deten-
ton, Kesselring continued writ
ing his name, under the empty
words "In the name of the Fueh-
rer.
SCIENCE
Dr. Chain Weizmann's latest
invention, expected to revolution
ize the plastics industry and the
Palestine economy, seems to be
the fulfllment of a pledge he
made several years ago when he
declared that research chemists
will yet convert Palestine into
another Switzerland, a major in
dustrial center. He said also that
chemists will find ways of de-
veloping sources of raw materials
within the country proper. Weiz-
mann's invention does exactly
that, according to reports.

nation to perform its main pur-
pose of forecasting the weather.
Along with forecasting. the sta.
ton tabulates and analyses
weather data. And from this data
comes facts unknown to the lay
man. For instance, snow falls on
the average of once in three
years. The temperature goes to
80 or lower q times a year. drops
to 20 OR lower three times a year.
On the upper end the mercury
climbs to 80 or above "a times a
year. The mean temperature for
the past rs years is 63.1, and zero
has never been recorded here.
With a barometer and baro-
graph the air pressure is record
ed. With thermometers the tenn
perature is determined. A psych-
rometer records the humidity.
The thermometer records the wind
velocity, the anenioscope the di-
rection. A rain-gauge measures
rainfall. With the nephoscope
cloud observations are made.
All Of these instruments are
used constantly by meteorologists
of the Weather Bureau. The skill
they exercise in handling the in
struments is most exact, for upon
their observations and analyses
depend the lives of millions.
STORM WARNINGS
Storm warnings are issued to
ships at sea. Small craft warn
ings are made when coastal dis
turbances arise. Airplane flights

|, TEMPERATURES
Of all the different phases of
weather, people seem to be most
interested in temperature, and the
weatherman is constantly quizzed
on what it is today, what it was
yesterday and what it will be to-
morrow.
On July IL, 1879 the Wilmington
weather station recorded the high
est temperature on record - a
sweltering 105. Twenty years
later, February IA, 1899, the mer-
curry skidded to the all-time low
of five above.
During it's rs years of continu-
Gus operation the Wilmington
weather station has had five
homes. The first was at the south
east corner of Market and Water
streets, and in 1874 the staff NOV
ed to the northwest corner of
Princess and Front streets. The
next move was to the west side
of Front street between Princess
and Market in 1880. In 1890 the
station set up in the post office
building, and in 1881 it migrated
over to the third floor of the Gus
tomhouse, the present location.
Ordinarily the station Is manned
10 hours a day by Hess, assistant
meteorologists Emily McGaugh-
ran and Edwin Warren, and air
way observer Leonard Colley. But
when any unusual conditions
arise, or in emergency, they are
on the job "a hours a day.
Like a vigilant mother watching
over her child, they observe the
changing weather. Most observa-
tons are routine.
When a SO mile hurricane looms
up however, or when a mass of
cold air approaches, they are on

Tide Water Power company and
the Southern Bell and Telegraph
company rushed to restore serv-
ice to the critical areas.
Meanwhile the weather station
staff observed and recorded all
phases of the storm.
Snow is rarely seen in Whining
ton, but 12.1 inches fell in 1896
on February II and 10. This was
over Is times the average snow

administration by representatives

CENTER PROGRAM
ONE YEAR OLD

One year ago, sponsored by the
Community Council and $50. Mrs
Milton Cherry hastily formed 6
volunteer committee, gathered ur
some recordings and opened Cen
ter Mite with free dance, enter
tainment and refreshments for
the youth of the community, at
Anshei Israel auditorium.
Because of the large attendance,
it was necessary to hold Center
Mite on Tuesday for the juniors
and on Wednesday for seniors.
Center Mites mean games, dane
ing, meeting friends, making plans
for weekend picnics and dates.
The Center was instrumental
in introducing lonesome soldier
from Davis -Monthan to his hearts
desire. They are now married.
Contrary to the belief of some
that a Day Camp during the hot
summer months would be fail
ure, the entire program was a
success. Mothers were quick to
recognize the advantages of ex-
pert instruction in crafts and the
cool, safe place for their child.
Facilities will have to be increased
next summer.
From an initial registration of
rs, participation is now over 300.
The appropriation of $1,640 for
1947 is inadequate. Much more
equipment is required to serve
the large membership.
The First Anniversary Formal
Dance will be held at Anshei Is
rael on Dec. 18th for the senior
group. Included in the refresh
ments will be tremendous birth
day cake.
A gala masquerade party for
juniors (8-14) has been arranged
with many surprises to be held
Dec. End with Mrs. Gif Giffords
in charge. There will be enter
tainment and prizes for the best
costumes.
On behalf of the Community
Council, Mrs. Milton Cherry wish

of her committee and her friends
for their fine cooperation in max
ing one year of Center Mites a

Nancy Carroll Chapel.
This modest frame structure,
which probably formed a part of the
Carroll homestead, was said to have
been built in 1774 by Father John
Carroll, who later became Arch
bishop of Baltimore, though some
say it was built by his sister Ann,
who married Robert Brent. Like
his cousin, the celebrated Charles
Carroll of Carrollton, this pioneer
priest was a patriot of the American
Revolution.
He was born in Upper Marlboro,
Md, on January 8, 1875, and at
the age of II, in company with his
distinguished cousin. before re-
ferred to, went abroad to France
to complete his college course and
to make his theological studies in
preparation for the priesthood. He
