THE DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE
SHOULD BE IN
Mike Smith
W
I Detroit Jewish News Foundation Archivist
e at the Jewish News Foundation
are really pleased that it is now
official — you can go to our web-
site and search more than 50,000 pages of the
Detroit Jewish Chronicle, along with 270,000
pages of the Detroit Jewish News, in the William
Davidson Digital Archives of Jewish Detroit
History. And, all of this is free and comes to
your home, or wherever your laptop happens
to be, no matter if you are in Detroit, Florida or
Timbuktu!
This advertisement from the Detroit Jewish
Chronicle and Legal News (note the different title
for that year) Dec. 27, 1935, states, "The Jewish
Chronicle Should be in Every Jewish Home" and
EVERY JEWISH HOME
Every Saturday Morning
urges the reader to "Keep Informed on What is
Going in the Jewish World:'
Well, we think we've met the editor's first
point — the Detroit Jewish Chronicle is now
available in every Jewish home around the
world. The second point is just a little bit dif-
ferent; a search of the Chronicle will tell you
"What went on in the Jewish World" from
1916 - 1951.
And, trust me — there was a lot of stuff
"going on" in the Jewish community, in Detroit,
America and across the globe. *
