Note to Advertisers: The man who believes in a cause can best be reached through a newspaper that fights for him. The Bulletin is such a publication.
Morris Tannenbaum was closing his books for the fiscal year. His pencil wove an irregular path along the page, stopping at this item or that while he contemplated the profit or loss of the particular investment.
As his pencil reached the entry, "Jewish Daily Bulletin $10.00," his thoughts digressed from thoughts of dollar profits and losses.
He realized how Jewish conscious he had become. For the first time in his life he felt that the Jewish problem was his problem, that the well-being of Jewry was his well-being. Memories of discussions with friends who mocked his conversion to Judaism. But always he was able to carry his point by quoting the Bulletin. Why, he even insisted on his family patronizing Bulletin advertisers.
He recalled his hesitancy in making out a check for $10.00 for a publication that featured Jewish news only. What an investment it turned out to be! He called to his bookkeeper, "Make out a check for subscriptions to the Bulletin." There was no hesitancy now. And once more his pencil traced an uncertain path along the ledger page.
