On May 6, the Exchange Club of Lake Highlands (ECLH) recognized youths for academic achievement, leadership and overcoming adversity. The ECLH gives Youth of the Year awards to represent the club at the local, state and national levels. It is designed to recognize industrious high school students who have high levels of academic achievement while demonstrating leadership, involvement and a willing desire to serve others in their community. The club also gives A.C.E. awards for “Accepting the Challenge of Excellence.” These awards are given to students who have overcome adversity and have achieved positive outcomes during their high school careers. It is a national Exchange Club program and a national winner is selected. — Don Lee
Tiny houses for homeless A community of tiny homes will open shortly to house 50 of Dallas’ most expensive homeless, a phrase that’s been tossed around a lot since the project was announced. What does that actually Photo courtesy of KERAnews.org mean? Trips back and forth to the hospital and in and out of jail cost taxpayers tens of thousands of dollars each year. Developers of the Cottages at Hickory Crossing say this project will save thousands, once it’s up and running. — Courtney Collins, KERA News

WEST END
Downtown museum new home to rare artifacts By Michael Tate Two artifacts from World War II, including a rare volume of photographs, have found a new home at the Dallas Holocaust Museum. A photo scrapbook detailing the work of the Monuments, Fine Arts and Archives (MFAA) section and a seven-branch menorah were presented on May 4 to the museum by Robert M. Edsel, founder of the Monuments Men Foundation. The foundation preserves and promotes the work of the MFAA, the wartime organization created to save and repatriate artistic and cultural works plundered by the Nazis. Those who served in that section are known as “Monuments Men.” “We’re thrilled to receive this cherished album and beautiful menorah,” Dallas Holocaust Museum President and CEO Mary Pat Higgins said in a released statement. “As
symbols of repair and restoration after the horrors of Nazi aggression, as well of Jewish continuity and perseverance, we will proudly display them in the new facility we plan to build in Dallas’ historic West End.” The scrapbook is a rare and significant addition to the museum's collection. Researchers know of maybe a dozen volumes still in existence. The scrapbooks were made at the Offenbach Archive Depot near Frankfurt. This was the collection center for recovered items relating to Judaic religion and culture. The books were originally four-volume sets made by hand. The donated book is Volume Two. Only two full sets still exist, one in the National Archives and another at the New York Public Library. Individual volumes are held by the Yad Vashem World Holocaust Remembrance Center in Jerusalem, archives at The Hague and now the Dallas
Holocaust Museum. “It's great that Dallas has one of these books and stands shoulder to shoulder with these great archives,” Mr. Edsel said. Rouben Sami, a veteran who served at Offenbach, donated the scrapbook to the foundation. Mr. Edsel was visiting the veteran when Mr. Sami went to a cabinet and pulled out this scrapbook. He recognized the beautifully bound leather volume with the neatly handwritten calligraphy describing each photo. “I knew what it was when he pulled out the book,” Mr. Edsel said. “It was a great surprise when we found it.” These photos from Germany also have a Dallas connection. One of the men identified in the scrapbook is Richard Howard, director of the Dallas Museum of Fine Arts from 1935 to 1942 and later chief of the MFAA Office of Military Government for

Dallas ISD Trustee Dan Micciche, District 3 Taking bold steps, bringing opportunities to students We’ve all heard the adage about teaching a man to fish and by doing so, you prepare him to be self- sustaining for a lifetime. As we think of preparing young people to have the tools they need to care for themselves, their families and the world around them, it is imperative that we pull together every resource available to do that. In the arena of urban education where poverty is high and societal challenges abound, educators are being called to think and act boldly and innovatively to meet students where they are to ensure equitable opportunities are available to all students. Collegiate Academies This coming fall Dallas ISD will establish eight new collegiate academies. Through this model, students can earn up to 60 hours of college credit (at no cost to the student) while they’re still in high school. In many instances, students graduate with their high school diplomas and an associate degree at the same time. Many students taking advantage of this incredible opportunity are first in their families to go to college, setting a course that could change the trajectory of their lives. As the cost of higher education skyrockets, early colleges are becoming more and more appealing. Dallas ISD is currently home to five early college high schools. The eight new collegiate academies will be launched in partnership with the Dallas County Community College District, giving more students throughout the city of Dallas the chance to earn a higher education degree. The new academies will launch with ninth-grade students and add a grade level each year. They’ll be a school within a school allowing students to attend their ninth and tenth grade years on the high school campus in a dedicated wing. For their junior and senior years, students will attend classes at their community college partner’s campus. Transportation will be provided to their respective campuses and books will be provided. Some have referred to this collegiate academy expansion as a game-changer for Dallas students, and they certainly have a point. In addition to earning college credits, students are learning to succeed in a college program and environment while still connected to the high school environment, learning to move between the two worlds, creating a bridge that prepares them to function on a higher level. They can leave high school with up to two years of college and no college debt. The Emmett J. Conrad Global Collegiate Academy is partnering with Richland College and is set to open this fall offering a STEM focus where students can choose to follow one of five pathways in the fields of computer science or information technology: • Interactive Simulation and Game Technology • Digital Forensics • Personal Computer Support • Software Programming/Development • Network Administration and Support The goal for each collegiate academy:
to become P-TECH Early College models —allowing students to work with industry partners in mentorships and internships that could lead to full time jobs once they graduate, industry certifications and pave the way for them to earn Dan Micciche an Associate of Applied Science degree. In our changing world, we can no longer afford to always operate inside the box with clearly marked sides and limitations. We are called, today, to shift our thinking to meet the needs of students to empower them to chart their own path to success. This expansion is a bold move with great possibilities — just what students deserve. William "Bubba" Flint - Special Contributor

LEtter from the Editor
Food, glorious food! By Nancy Black I’m shaking with excitement. One of my favorite places to eat, which closed more than a year ago, is reopening! Welcome back to the neighborhood, New York Sub! I, and many others, have missed you! It’s safe to say (write) that I grew up eating New York Subs. I was there the day the original New York Subway opened way back in 1974 and also there the day New York Sub closed in late 2014. Somewhere along that stretch of 40 years it lost the “way” in subway. But it never lost its flavor. My, oh my, how I am craving the secret oil and vinegar sauce right now. The new owners, the Kelly family, are keeping with tradition and sticking with the old menu (they even have the old menu board) and decor. But they have made a few tweaks. Healthy, organic meats will now be used along with locally grown produce. MMM, mmm, good. I can’t wait! A soft opening is planned for next week before a big grand opening a few days later. I also got to visit another old haunt of mine this past week. My son and I went to San Francisco Rose for lunch. I never even knew they served lunch. I had only been there years ago for the live music at night.
I ordered a bacon cheeseburger with homemade chips, and my son had their soup and sandwich special. Both dishes were outstanding. The burger was perfectly cooked and juicy. And the chips came with an amazing, slightly spicy dipping sauce that highly complimented the thinly sliced and lightly fried potatoes. My son’s lunch plate of a club sandwich and homemade chicken noodle soup looked inviting, but I could
tell he wished he had ordered a burger, too. Who would have thought a Greenville Avenue nightspot would have such good food in the daytime? Not me, that’s for sure. Between the New York Subs I’ll be eating nonstop and the new lunch menu at San Francisco Rose, I better add one more thing to my daily activities — more exercise! How many miles of walking does it take to work off a foot long sub?

Mull It Over
‘Shot heard 'round the world’ By David Mullen It’s the modern day “shot heard ‘round the world.” Attributed to the 1837 Ralph Waldo Emerson poem “Concord Hymn,” the phrase “shot heard ‘round the world” referred to the first shot of the American Revolutionary War. No one can confirm when and where the first shot took place, but it was probably at the Battle of Lexington. There was no social media or 24-hour television networks in existence at the time. When Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria was assassinated in Sarajevo, the term “shot heard ‘round the world” resonated throughout Europe, which, of course, was considered “the world.” But actually, it was the second shot that hit Ferdinand. The first shot hit his wife Sophie, Duchess of Hohenberg. Again, no social media or television cameras, but the act was a precursor to what eventually would be World War I. Grainy black and white footage and an audio tape full of hisses and pops chronicles one of the most famous plays in baseball history. On Oct. 3, 1951, in late afternoon at the Polo Grounds in New York City, Bobby Thomson of the New York Giants hit a walk-off, threerun home run against Ralph Branca (former Texas Rangers manager Bobby Valentine’s father-in-law) of the cross-town rival Brooklyn Dodgers to end a three-game playoff series and propel the Giants into the World Series. That play was dubbed as the “shot heard ‘round the world,” and had a lone place in baseball lore until the top of the eighth inning on Sunday, May 15 at Globe Life Park in Arlington. Because of the 24-hour sports network, viral world we live in, the “shot heard ‘round the

Rangers second baseman Rougned Odor bats left, but throws right. world” is now a punch in the jaw from Rangers second baseman Rougned Odor that sent nemesis Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Jose Bautista, the baseball world (and the rest or the world) buzzing. For those that don’t know by now, Bautista hit a home run in the final game of a heated 2015 American divisional series to eliminate the Rangers. After he crushed a fastball deep into the left field stands at Rogers Centre in Toronto, he stood at the plate, admired his work and then flipped the bat — with great height and arrogance — toward the Rangers dugout. By showing up the other team, Bautista broke an “unwritten rule.” Texas and their fans would never forget. Twenty-seven at bats by Bautista against the Rangers in the 2016 season and the Rangers had not answered back. Another “unwritten rule” is that you quickly throw at a prominent batter on the team or, in this case, Bautista to inflict revenge on his act and it is over. But the Rangers waited until Bautista’s 28th and final at bat of the season against Texas (the Rangers led 7-6) to throw a 95 mile-anhour fastball into Bautista’s ribs. He ran to first, and what happened later is stuff that social media is made of. Ranger third baseman Adrian Beltre fielded a ground ball toward short and flipped to
Odor for the force play. Because of multiple injuries to infielders last season, runners are no longer allowed to “take out” a fielder at second by sliding into him. Bautista started his slide at second base and went for Odor’s legs behind the bag. Odor threw awry to first, but that didn’t matter. The batter was ruled out because of Bautista breaking the new rule. Both benches charged the field and chaos ensued. Not seen until four minutes into the replay on Fox Sports Southwest did one see that Odor had landed a perfect right hand to Bautista’s jaw, knocking his helmet and glasses off of his head. Odor could never throw to first, but he sure could throw a right. Suspensions have been handed out including an eight game suspension for Odor (on appeal). Bautista (given a one game suspension) was just exercising an “unwritten rule” of retaliation. Unfortunately for him, the rule is now written. Minutes later on social media, the punch became the “shot heard ‘round the world.” Hours later it was on every sports and news report in North America. It took one day for someone to produce a T-shirt of the play. It may become the defining moment of the Rangers 2016 season, but it will certainly go down as an unforgettable moment in Rangers history.

ALONG THE GREEN TRAIL
Trinity experience went swimmingly By Naima Montacer @naimajeannette
There’s something I haven’t told readers … last fall, I swam in the Trinity River less than a few miles from downtown Dallas. I can see the look on your face right now, eyes squinting, face squished in a perplexed gross look, imagining why anyone would do that. Well, I did it on purpose, had a blast and lived to tell you the tale. I was fortunate enough to be taken out by the professional kayakers at kayakinstruct.com on a beautiful, warm, sunny day to the Dallas Wave. The Dallas Wave is a multimillion dollar white water park located on the Trinity River under the red line Dart bridge near Corinth and at the head of the Santa Fe Trestle Trail. It’s not in use much these days because of controversy surrounding the building of it and some design flaws. In January of this year City Manager, A.C. Gonzalez called the Dallas Wave a “mistake.” But I could think of far bigger “mistakes” this city has made beyond trying to create an adventure facility that encourages Dallas to embrace our outdoor features. OK, back to the fun. As it’s been years since I did any

Dallas Wave is white water park located on the Trinity River. serious kayaking, beyond lounging on the lakes around DFW, the kayak instructors took us through some activities to get the feel and maneuverability of our boats and help us become confident. This also involved demonstrating a wet exit from our kayaks, aka a dunk in the Trinity. I’m not going to lie, all I could think about was what kind of bacteria could be lurking in the water that will cause me harm, but I knew the pollution was worse on high flow days when fresh runoff from the surrounding landscape was high. This day, the flow was perfect and the river was swimmable. I dived in, felt proud of my accomplishment and was ready for the rapids. Our Dallas Wave experience on that day was a fun,
safe kayaking adventure and, at times, I was transported to another world farther than a stone’s throw to Southside Dallas. A train would come rumbling overhead, and I was reminded that in a few minutes’ car ride I could grab a coffee down the street or walk into city hall. We played in the rapids for a few hours going through the waves, paddling out, paddling back in and then carrying our kayaks to the start to do it again. I haven’t been back to play at the Dallas Wave again, mainly because I have a rule that I will not kayak in the winter time when temps are cold, and now the water level is too high. The flow rate needs to be perfect to open the Trinity and the Dallas Wave to some fun. KayakInstruct.com also offers beginner clinics under the Continental Bridge in coordination with the city. All you have to do is make a reservation and show up. They will provide the materials you need. And no worries, these beginner clinics don’t include a dive through the Wave, but you can set that up with them if you’d like to wear the same badge of honor as I do. The Dallas Wave is currently not reaching the potential it could. In Munich, Germany, a similar humanmade wave system was created, and since the 1970s, surfers and kayakers have been riding the waves just a few miles from city center. The surfers create a tourism draw and a quick search on the Internet leads to thousands of pictures and videos of day and nighttime wave surfers. The scene is an iconic image that has become synonymous with Munich. Instead of looking at the Dallas Wave as a “mistake,” let’s get the city manager out to the Wave, a dunk in the Trinity and make sure he understands the fun that is housed right in our backyard! But, I wonder how the construction of the horseshoe project with fierce destruction of the riparian areas of the Trinity has affected stream flow and the Dallas Wave.

MOVIE TRAILER
Crowe and Gosling make nice pair in ‘The Nice Guys’ By Chic DiCiccio At the age of 22, Shane Black sold his first screenplay. It was an action/comedy that paired an older, fried cop with a young, crazed former special ops soldier, and the two traded as many barbs with each other as they did punches with bad guys. Of course, that movie is “Lethal Weapon” and it is the ultimate 1980s action movie. It has been copied with so many wretched results that it has almost lessened the impact of the originator. It may be hard to believe, but Black has topped “Lethal Weapon” with “The Nice Guys” and thrown the door wide open for another action movie franchise. The combination of Black’s inspired writing and direction combined with Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling’s snappy chemistry makes this bromance a riotous trip back to 1977 Los Angeles. Gosling plays Holland March, a private detective whose functioning alcoholism and investigative work is aided by his 13-year-old daughter, Holly (Angourie Rice). March has been hired to find a mysterious girl named Amelia (Margaret Qualley), but his investigation hits a snag when Amelia hires Jackson Healy (Crowe) to stop her “stalker” from following her. Healy, the type of guy to break someone’s arm if given just 100 bucks to do so, bursts into March’s house and gives him his patented “stay away from her” beatdown. A series of events causes Healy to think

Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe costar in the action comedy “The Nice Guys.” there is more to the curious case of Amelia than meets the eye, so he hires March to help him track her down. Their investigation allows Black to take these two polar opposites and place them in situations with hilarious results. Violence hasn’t been this funny on screen in years, with Healy dishing it out and March absorbing much of it. Sure, the conspiracy that involves Detroit auto makers, the California porno industry, and maybe even the Department of Justice (which throws Kim Basinger in the mix) is way overcooked, but it doesn’t matter. All the fun in “The Nice Guys” is watching these two guys accidentally crack the case. Perhaps playing a ruffian with heart did it, but Russell Crowe hasn’t been this alive on screen in what feels like a decade. He’s essentially like Bud from “L.A. Confidential” except with a sense of humor. The
extra chin and added paunch are never a punchline, but instead a fitting addition for an actor fully inhabiting his character. This actually may be the most unbridled fun that Crowe has ever had in a movie. If Crowe is having a good time, then “The Nice Guys” is like a 72-hour Las Vegas blitz for Ryan Gosling. Sure, he laid on the quips and the sleaze in “The Big Short,” but never on a level like this before. Not only are his cowardly yelps enough to turn an entire theater into shrieking hyenas, the physical comedy on display is one of the bigger surprises you will see this year. This is far more entertaining and fun than the brooding, dramatic “acting” work that Gosling has done in films like “Blue Valentine” and “Drive.” However, the MVP of “The Nice Guys” (other than every word written by Black) is 15-year-old Angourie Rice. She and Gosling have
impeccable timing and she is essentially the conscience of the entire movie. It’s a scenestealing performance, and besides, it’s always funny to hear a kid curse like a sailor. At the end of the day, “The Nice Guys” is the Shane Black Show. He’s recreated the 1970s in pitch perfect fashion, complete with Los Angeles smog and the killer bee migration threat. The fashion choices, particularly Gosling’s colorful suits and Crowe’s hairstyle, are so vivid that it immediately puts you in that world and makes it difficult to leave. From the rat-a-tat delivery to the uproariously bloody action, “The Nice Guys” manages to be a throwback to smart, fun action movies with a brain without seeming nostalgic for the “good ol’ days” of 1980s action. As long as plenty of people see this movie in theaters, Black, Crowe, and Gosling won't be leaving “The Good Guys” behind.

FC was born in Dallas by cofounders, whose names on their website are: Bryan “Bearsuit” Deluca; Matt “True Believer” McClard; Kelly “Disney Prince” Largent and Tom “Khaki Enthusiast” Browning. We spoke with Browning, who is a former analyst with the Office of the Inspector General. Browning quit his day job in 2012 to jump in with both feet to the company. A notable sign of progress was when the company outgrew its Lake Highlands location and moved last July into a 6,000 sq. ft. building in the Design District a block from Turtle Creek. The “Shark Tank” segment was filmed in mid-June, 2015 and aired Oct. 9 that year, and again in December. According to Browning, 50,000 companies apply to the tank every year and are narrowed down to about 175, who make it onto the show. The socks gurus completed a 20-page application first thing. “We were contacted to send in a 10-minute video first, and later a one-minute video with only Bryan and Matt, who would be making the on-air presentation if selected,” he said.

The FC deal that was reached on the Friday night program in October hadn’t closed when the segment went on air. By early August, after filming, the owners and investors had parted ways. “Things just didn’t work out, but Cuban called me to wish us luck before the show aired.” Browning said, “I’m proudest that we quintupled our customer base in three months following the show, and we were shipping socks the next morning after ‘Shark Tank’ aired.” The company now supports 20 employees, 10 of whom were hired since “Shark Tank” aired. They work their socks off to meet the demand now. FC’s business tends to increase 50-60 percent during gift-giving seasons, with the greatest jumps being the October through the December period. Father’s Day is an especially busy time. “‘Shark Tank’ is just like a windfall that fell into our laps. We were already growing 350 percent every year. We’ve maintained that over the years,” Browning said. FC just launched pre-orders for election socks. On the day Browning spoke to White Rock Lake Weekly, an email campaign went out to subscribers. Pairs of “election socks,” each bearing one of the candidates’ image, were added to the inventory. “We don’t know

Mistakes are sure to be made, but there are mistakes and there are mistakes! Those that are made honestly, in the process of learning and experimentation, can actually prove helpful in the long run. Those that are made because one's eyes are closed or because one assumes that success is assured can be quite costly and must be avoided. GEMINI (May 21-June 6) You may begin the week feeling uncertain and hesitant, but events transpire that give you a new dose of confidence and enthusiasm. (June 7-June 20)
– A quicker pace is required, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't pay attention to each new development as it arises. CANCER (June 21-July 7) You may have trouble grappling with familiar issues that have assumed a new and increased importance. Instincts take you only so far. (July 8-July 22) – You may be striving to uncover something that has been obscure for too long. The big picture gives you many important clues. LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) Just when you thought you could call a major project complete, someone throws a wrench in the works and requires you to rethink certain aspects. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) – You know how to collaborate quite effectively, but you're likely to want to go it alone for some reason. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) You may have to rely on an underling to fix a problem that has arisen because you were unable to see the forest for the trees! (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) – The exploratory or experimental phase of a project is coming to an end. You must make certain concrete moves.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) Your keen awareness of certain harsh realities will keep you from making plans or decisions that cannot pan out. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) – You may require a dose of realism before you are able to progress as planned. Someone knows how to open your eyes to what lies ahead. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) You're looking forward to the way something will end, but there is much to tend to before the curtain falls.

what to expect. We will accept preorders that will ship late August. It’s a way to lighten the mood in a politically charged atmosphere and the sock can take the edge off, while still supporting your favorite candidate,” Browning said. If you’re a “Shark Tank” groupie, here’s a point of information you may enjoy (or it may make you throw up or cry): Kevin (Mr. Wonderful) O’Leary’s net worth is $450 million; Daymond John (fashion guru) has a net worth of $250 million; Robert (“Dancing with the Stars”) Herjavec’s is $200 million; Lori Greiner (Queen of QVC) has a net worth of a measly $50 million, as does Barbara Corcoran (real estate tycoon). With a net worth of all the sharks combined, Dallas Mavs owner Mark Cuban’s net worth is $3.5 billion. Everything’s bigger in Texas. The Foot Cardigan guys know that their “Shark Tank” appearance couldn’t have produced better results. Before they dived into the prime-time show in October, 2015, FC had about 7,000 active subscribers. The company grew to about 35,000 active subscribers at the end of December, 2015. “This has been a wonderful and crazy ride,” Browning concluded, sporting a pair of his family’s more than 250-sock inventory. Foot Cardigan will ship 30,000 pairs this month. That’s not too stinky. For information on Foot Cardigan, to subscribe and for a bunch of laughs, visit footcardigan.com.
Your Stars this Week The coming week will test a great many individuals in ways that are both expected and unexpected. The result is likely to be that most will end up with a greater sense of themselves and what they are truly capable of — though others may come up short and have to weather disappointment. In order to be in the first group, one must approach the coming challenges with a positive attitude and the awareness that nothing will be resolved immediately, and no goal may be reached on the first attempt. This means, of course, that one will have to go back and give it another try, perhaps again and again throughout the week — and that's where fatigue begins to play a role. Succumbing to fatigue can mean the difference between success and failure.

Raising the bar inside and out By Stephan Sardone
Stephan@sardoneconstruction.com Every house has that spot where everything or everyone gathers. For a lot of people that spot is the bar. Whether it be the breakfast bar, the mini bar or the outdoor bar, a place where you can stop and lean with a drink or drop the mail is a convenient, functional addition to your home. Having a bar provides a spot for the Thanksgiving buffet, party hors d'oeuvres, appetizers or crafts and hobbies. It becomes a gathering place that can either be a focal point, a background piece or even a room divider without closing off two spaces completely. For more storage space, you can include cabinets in the base of the bar or hanging over it. Having a welllit bar on a dimmable switch is also a good idea so that you can adjust the mood accordingly. Maybe try a smaller classy light fixture, such as a pendant, above the bar to draw special attention. If you already have a mini bar but you don’t drink alcohol, consider making it a coffee bar. Add an espresso machine and some other barista features for the perfect stop before work every morning. Maybe you have a nice breakfast bar that’s slightly out of date. Just like the powder
bathroom, the bar is a chance to do something creative. It’s a small feature of your home and its own work of art. It gives you an excuse to have fun with design and execution, adding something interesting to your home without going over the top. If your bar needs sprucing up, try adding a new counter top of stone, granite or marble leftover from a bigger project in the past or from the stone yard. Is your neighbor wrapping up a big construction project? See if they have scraps of stone they’re disposing of, or try wrapping the base in wood paneling or steel for a unique and dramatic design leap. An outdoor bar can serve many purposes as well. If set up near the grill and/or the outdoor kitchen area, it can be used for extra prep space or a serving spot. Make sure that as you create the bar, which is basically an outdoor countertop, choose something made from natural materials to stand against nature’s elements. It’s fairly easy to assemble an outdoor countertop whether you build up a stone or brick wall to support it. You could also mount the bar to the actual wall itself, creating a floating bar. To really make your outdoor bar ready for the party, try getting an outdoor beer cooler, particularly one that looks unique. This big

MUSEUM cont'd from page 1 Sarah Abosh, senior director of education at the Holocaust Museum, described it as a classic, European seven-branch menorah with decorative scrollwork etching. Determining its age and ancestry will begin by working with a network of museums and collectors of historical Judaism, especially the services of the Association of Holocaust Organizations. “There's a number of these informal ways to try and figure it out,” Dr. Abosh said. What is known about the menorah is that it came home with a returning soldier. That soldier gave it to a friend in Kansas, and he passed it on to a lady that contacted the Monuments Men Foundation seeking a proper home for it. The scrapbook and menorah are being kept in the museum's archive awaiting construction of a new facility. The

museum has outgrown its current Record Street address and a new home for the collection is still in the planning stages. Both the museum and the foundation continue to seek any items that will help illustrate the experience of the war and the Holocaust to future generations. Bringing these relics to new, safe homes helps restore some of the dignity and beauty they held for their original owners before they were stolen. “It really is a happy end to an incredibly sad story,” Mr. Edsel said. The scrapbook and menorah are examples of such lost and orphaned objects that have found a new home. Dr. Abosh hopes the museum will become a home for many more small pieces of history that returned from the war and the Holocaust. “Anything from that period matters,” she said. “It matters considerably.”
