In the recent passing of Ethel
Shorr from our midst; we, the
Women's Division of the Sholem
Aleichem institute, have lost, not
only our founder, but a faithful
worker who never faltered in her
devotion to the Cause and whose
afflictions never dimmed her vi-
sion nor obscured the sparkle of
her vibrant interest. In perpetual
commemoration of her inspiring
leadership the Women's Division
has resolved to honor her .cher-
ished memory with an annual
Ethel Shorr Day program that
though she is absent from us in
the flesh she will be forever with
us in spirit.
