JEWISH BOOK MONTH IS BEING OBSERVED AT MiNNIE COBEY MEMORIAL LIBRARY
The Minnie Cobey Memorial Library committee of Temple Tlf¬ ereth Israel announces the observance of National Jewish Book Month, (Oct. 26 thru Nov. 28). The Library Is open to the com¬ munity, and is well stocked with fiction, history and traditional lore. New and worthwhile books aro received regularly from the pub¬ lishers and invite Jijspection.
The Library Is open Monday through Thursday, 1-4 p. m., and 9:30 a. m. to 12 noon Sunday, with Mrs. Josef SoFomon serving as librartan.1
Most of the books may be token from the library; however, there is a wealth of reference material to be used as research aids.
A few ot the newer books received by the library are:
The Ten Commiuidmenta, by Rabbi Solomon Goldman, who before his death in 1968 had achieved a national reputation as a biblical scholar. He is known to many as the author of a number of books on various facets of Jewish history, culture and religion. Outstanding among these arc two volumes, The Book of Books and In the Beginning* which were to be the first parts of a mammoth undertaking, "The Book' of Human Destiny," conceived as an encyclopdic commentary on the entire Jewish bible.
It Is from the manuscripts for the projected third volume—on Exodus—that The Ten Commandments has been edited by Maurice Samuel.
In The Ten Cfmtmandments, Rabbi Goldman brings us all that Is actually known about these divine laws: the events surrounding their origin as described In Exodus and other biblical books, the various translations of the texts In the Decalogue Is studied and ex¬ plained,
Rabbt Goldman's last work may ^ well prove a monument of creative scholarship unexcelled In our century. It Is written In an extremely readable style, edited and Introduced by Maurice Samuel in his usual masterly manner.
Saul's Daughter, by Gladys Malvern, Is the story of the impetu¬ ous Princess idlohal, who became wife to David, King of Israel. (eoatlaB«d mi pace ii

SENIOR HADASSAH ANNOUNCES COMPLETE PROGRAM FOR DONOR DINNER NOV. 4
Members of Columbus Chapter of Senior Hadassah soon will be taking their cocktail clothes out of mothballs In preparation for the 28th annual donor dinner on Nov. 4. The dinner committee Is as¬ suring that this year's affair will be unforgettable. It will be at the Jewish Center and begins at 6:30 p. m.
A kosher dinner Is being planned by the Hospitality committee chairman, Mrs. Aaron Canowltz, who has worked diligently with Gold Catering Service. Unusual decorations are being made by Mrs. Joseph Haas and members of her Decorations committee.
During dinner, music wil be provided by Bob Marvin's orchestra and  dancing will continue following the  program.
The donor dinner committee feels most fortunate to have ob¬ tained the world-famous cantor, David Kusevitsky, who has planned a diversified program which will appeal to all members of his audience.   He will be accompanied by Mfs. Melville D. Frank.
Another highlight of the evening will be the appearance of Mr. Semah Cecll-Hymttn, Consul General of Israel In New York. His wife. Dr. Anne Fohner-Hyman, will also greet the dinner guests. Since Hadassah's donor dinner is concerned solely with Hadassah Medical 6rganlzation In Israel, it is of special significance that the Hymans appear.
Reservations should be made as soon as possibly;, by calling Mrs. Martin Schecter, CL. 2-6204. Cheeks made payable to Columbus Chapter of Senior Hadassah may be sent to Mrs. Schecter, 1926 Whittler St.
