In recent years, the Jewish Community of M uskegon has made remarkable strides in the establishment and development of religious, national, social and philanthropic organizations. The success of this small but well knit cominunity has been out of all proportion to the size of its membership. Its record is nationally outstanding. In a great measure the progress of this group has been due to the excellent leadership provided by a few talented and devoted workers, to whose unselfish contributions of time and effort the community has been ever ready to off er its cooperation and support. The accomplishment of the United Jewish Charities of Greater M uskegon evoke high praise among local and national Jewry. To the outstanding executive ability of our tireless leader, Paul )11/iener, this community acknowledges a debt of gratitude and appreciation. His constancy of devotion to the United Jewish Charities, his altruistic sacrifice of other pressing interests to the cause of charity, has gained him a place of esteem and admiration in the community. To Paul Wiener, and to the efforts and the successes of his leadership, we offer our thanks and applause. RABBI LEWIS SATLOW DR.
