WINTER SUN SALE Besides the six display cases, the exhibit includes over 160 objects in 15 display cases. The objects include a special yarmulke made of camouflage material which a Jewish Vietnam soldier created for himelf, and an old- fashioned steamer trunk which a Jewish chaplain lugged from place to place as he ministered to Jewish soldiers. The contents include Shabbat candlesticks, a kid- dush cup, a white silk flag with the Star of David, even a miniature Torah. Not far from the Jewish War Veterans Museum is the B'nai B'rith Klutznick Museum at 1640 Rhode Island Avenue. On display in its permanent collection of Jewish ceremonial and folk art are more than 500 objects. There are silver coins from Israel, Babylonian bowls from the third century BCE, a silver amulet from 16th cen- tury Italy, a copper charity box from 18th century Holland, a ketubah from Per- sia dated 1859, a bronze clock with Hebrew letters from Vienna. Besides its permanent ex- hibit, the Klutznick Museum mounts special exhibits. The current one, "Becoming Americans," portrays the story of immigration to the U.S. in the peak years 1890 to 1924, when over two million Jewish immigrants left their homelands for new lives in America. The exhibit traces the journeys and experiences of these new Americans. The processing at Ellis Island, the tenements, the sweatshops, the new lives in the nation's crowded cities — all this is conveyed with photographs, artifacts and art. The art includes the bronze statues of prominent sculptor Philip Ratner, which will eventually be on permanent display in a sculpture garden on Ellis Island. A third museum, located almost in the shadow of the capital, acquaints the visitor with Washington's Jewish history and at the same time offers the chance to visit a former synagogue that is now listed on the U.S. Register of Historic Places. Adas Israel at Third and G Streets is a simple brick building in late colonial style. Around it is a delicate wrought-iron fence with an intricate Star of David design. Though its exterior is modest, its history is im- pressive. This was the first synagogue built in the capital. President Ulysses S.
