William Penn 'Finds'
Israel's Lost Tribes

No Contract Necessary

(American Jewish- Press FeatUre)

One of Jewish history's un-
solved • 'mysteries revolves about
the' "Ten Lost Tribes of Israel."
Defeated by invaders of Pales-
tine' centuries ago, 10 of the 12
tribes of Israel were carried off
into- captivity, 'never again •to be
heard from; an unanswered puz-
zle fOr the historians.
More than 300 years ago,
Pennsylvania's founder, Quaker
William Penn, felt certain he
had found the Lost Tribes. His
"discovery" is contained in pap-
ers sent to England by the early
American pioneer in which he
makes. note of the customs of
American Indians. Penn believ-
ed the Indians of New Jersey
constituted the remnants of the
ancient Israelis carried into
captivity.
It was while he spent several
days with the New Jersey In-
dians in an attempt—it was un-
fruitful—to acquire new terri-
tories on which settlers might
establish themselves, that Penn
observed the Indian dietary laws
and mourning customs and came
tO,the conclusion that a link ex-
isted between the Indians and
Israelis. A religious man, Penn
wrote • that the method which
the Indians used to cut fringes
in their garments mourning the
dead; their "kashruth" laws,
and other mannerisms were
akin to the ancient Jews.

ne hundred _years ago the Detroit
Gas Light Company made its first 'few
hundred feet of gas, sending it through
small mains to a few scattered homes in
which the newly developed gas lamps
of that day were installed. Three days
later the first gas lamps were lighted in
the streets of Detroit.

From that beginning our Company has
grown into the great distribution system
which today serves more than 715,00o
customers living in 69 cities, villages
and communities of Michigan.

From on l555 lithograph, showing the first Detroit go: plant of 6th and Woodbridge Streets.

We enter our second century with long
range plans to keep pace with the growth
of the communities served. We aim to
maintain the highest standards of service,
with a deep sense of our responsibility
and our obligation to contribute in every
way we can to the public good.
