1922-12-7 Lavick, Council of Jewish Women - - 1922 (cropped image of above with more info) - - Intro by Jack: I think this was another group that crossed all lines. You can tell by the names that all of the various synagogues and the temple women were included. I really think this was the beginning of the Federation in Duluth. All of the women belonged. Looking at the various committees I think a lot were from 'one group' and then branched. Temple, 4th Street, 9th Street Adas, West Duluth, Superior and so on.
