Do I now need to wait 6 hours before eating dairy? A: Rav Yisroel Langer responds: Onions take on a special status in halacha as they are a sharp food. If one cuts an onion with a fleishig knife, the entire onion may not be consumed with dairy even if the fleishig knife has not been used in a long time. However, R' Akiva Eiger says that one who eats the onion that was cut with the meat knife will not have to wait 6 hours before eating dairy. Hence, the one who ate the kugel may consume the dairy soon after. However, in the reverse case in which one is fleishig, some poskim rule that he must wait 6 hours before eating foods containing onions that were cut with a milchig knife (Pri Migadim).  Municipal Election Approaching in Skokie As Skokie's April 1st municipal election approaches, Agudath Israel of Illinois has been meeting with Skokie community leaders to ensure the most robust turnout for this critical election.

The girls' trip, which was partially subsidized by the local Agudah, enabled the leaders to spend a Shabbos with old friends, make many new ones and attend numerous sessions – all aimed at helping them become better Bnos leaders. Below are two letters sent to Mrs. Aron, Bnos Director, from leaders expressing their Hakaras Hatov.
