Eighth Annual O.F.S. Young Israel C onf ere nee

TO BE HELD IN BLOEMFONTEIN

O

^N the 6th and 7th of next month, delegates from the various societies of the Orange Free State will meet at the Communal Hall, Bloemfontein, to discuss Young Israel affairs, with par- ticular reference to this Province.

The movement in the Free State was in a padous plight when the Central Council assumed office, and the Council has i::ucccedecl in buildh1g up numerous soci ties. This is evidenced from the fact that the movement had only seven societi s twelve months ago, whereas thes"' now number 14.

The conference pl'Omises to be the most representative gathering of its kinrl ever held, but there are still several societies that have not yet . ubmitted the names of their delegate .

It is hopetl that the Bloemfontein community will be present at the pro- ce dings, and give the Youth movement every encouragement.
