The Maytag is the fastest sell-
ing washer in the world by far.
The reason is its wonderful
efficiency.
Call To-Day
Why put up with drudgery for another wash day when
we offer you a free trial and guarantee to save you half
the time required by other good washers — not only this,
the Maytag is made to last a lifetime. It is the only ma-
chine with cast aluminum tub — cleans itself. You may
have it on deferred payments you will never miss. But
first have a free trial then you will know the Maytag as it is.

sizes the responsibility resting on
evry Jew to do all in his power to
help make the Jewish youth sound in
body and soul so that they may be
useful members of the community and
useful citizens of • the land. It Calls
upon them to recognize that when-
ever a Jew goes wrong it is because
the community has failed to bring to

exerted Jo keep him straight; that
the shame is not only upon the one
who has fallen, but must be rightly

We adult Jews can best influence our
youth, and if we fail to influence them
in the right direction we fail not mere-
ly as Jews, we fail as Americans.
"The Jewish Welfare Board is, I
sincerely believe, the instrumentality
through which this responsibility of
the Jew for every Jew whom he can
influence in the right direction can be
brought home to all Jews. It is the
instrumentality through which 'this
sense of responsibility when awakened
can be turned into practiced effort.
And it is the instrument which, after
this practical effort has resulted in
the erection of Jewish centers, will
enable the communities to carry on
the work in these centers. most ef-
fectively."
(Editor's Note.—The work of the
Jewish Welfare Board and its relation
to the Detroit community may be il-
lustrated here. For years Detroit has

association arid because of the general
lack of organization in the community

few days ago the campaign director of

from an extensive campaign is the
Pacific coast communities. A com-
mittee representative of communal
leaders and interested organizations
met on Sept. 3 at the Phoenix Club
to listen to and discuss with Dr. Gold-
stein the possibilities of erecting a
Jewish community center in the near
future. As a result of the meeting
immediate steps will be taken to begin
active organization. There already
exists in the city a Y. M. B. A. club
