Magen David Adom
Seeks Assistance
Magen David Adom (MDA), Israel's
national emergency medical response
organization, is seeking donations as it
continues saving lives amid increasing
rocket attacks from Gaza.
MDA, which does not receive Israeli
government funding for its operations, has
activated its entire 13,000 volunteer corps
and manned all of its 1,000 ambulances
in response to sustained rocket fire from
Gaza. The latest operations have strained
MD/Vs resources, which also must be dedi-
cated to standard, day-to-day emergencies
throughout Israel.
To donate, visit American Friends of
MDA at www.afmda.org/make-a-donation
or call 866-388-7527.

JNF Assists Israel
in Time of Crisis
Since Operation Protective Edge began last
week, the Jewish National Fund mobilized
to assist the people of Israel. JNF efforts
have included:
• Keeping JNF's Sderot indoor recreation
center open 24 hours to give the children a
safe place to play.
• Arranging for activities and provisions
for people in bomb shelters, along with
food and essentials.
• Supplying the new community of
Halutza with 24 mobile bomb shelters.
• Taking people with special needs to
Israel's northern areas and away from dan-
ger zones.
To donate to JNF, visit www.jnf. org.

any retailers offer a low-price
guarantee, with advertisements
often stating that all competi-
tor prices will be beat. Some even make
a bet out of the guarantee and promise a
reward or special discount if lower pric-
es can be found at a competing retailer.
That being said, not many low-price
guarantees are quite like those adver-
tised in the 1970s and 1980s by Margolis
Household Furniture, which was
located on McNichols, one block west of
Schaefer for more than 40 years.
Advertisements like the one shown
here featured Arnold Margolis promis-
