Notebook

We take your business personally.

As a Detroit Jewish
community, we
are returning to
the Michigan State
Fairgrounds. We
are walking in
the footsteps of
where our parents
and grandparents
rallied in
celebration of
Israel's first
anniversary.

"A certificate of deposit
that pays 4.50% APY*
for 18 months.
Now, that's personal."

Here's a personal offer: Open an

MHB Certificate of Deposit for 18

months and we'll guarantee that

you earn 4.50% annual percentage

yield for the full term of your CD.

Why would we make this offer

when so many other banks are

cutting back on interest they pay on

deposits? That's the way we look

and facing serious demographic
challenges, Israel has survived and
thrived. Can we be motivated by the
same principles and creativity that
assured our existence as a people
through the millennia to rejuvenate
and reinvigorate ourselves while
also being part of the solution to
the Detroit region's overall chal-
lenges?
Let's pledge, on Aug. 21 at the
Michigan State Fairgrounds, that
our Jewish community will be back,
in equal or greater numbers, to cel-
ebrate Israel's 75th. Let's pledge to
challenge and support our leaders
as they make our preservation and
revitalization the community's No.
1 priority. Let's pledge to devote the
energy, time and resources needed
while still being resolute in our
support for Israel.
Meanwhile, enjoy the hot dogs,
the music, the fireworks ... and the
moment. There is much for us to
celebrate.

after our customers. It's personal.

What does Israel
mean to Jewish
Detroit now as com-
pared to 1949?

Should the diaspora
do more for Israel's
security and
prosperity?
