Our warmest thanks and appreciation to all of you who responded
so kindly and generously to our appeal for the Charles E. Feinberg

The boys and girls at Gan Israel, have each —
in their separate seasons — enjoyed an enor-
mously successful camp summer, one of the
best ever; you should only see their shining,
happy faces!

44 We are confident that those of you who have
not yet responded to our appeal will do so —
generously — very shortly, we reiterate our
gratitude and wish you all a healthy summer,
Charles E. Feinberg and a happy, successful and sweet new year.
