W ooclstock-Salt River Hebr<>w l(inclergarten Concert.
A most delightful and enjoyable concert was given by the pupils of the Woodstock- Salt River Hebrew Kindergarten on Sunday morning in the Talmud Torah Hall.
Mr . L. Gradner, introduced by Mr.
Easker, opened the concert, and spoke of the important part the Kindergarten played in our national' and religious life. She appealed to the parents to support it by seeing- that their children attended and by monetary contributions. She expressed thanks and appreciation to the teacher, Miss Glaser. to whose perseverance and organising aJ)ilit~ it '"as due that the Kindergarten had atlai11c>d its present high standard.
The first item was a representatition of Kfar Us. ishkin in "hi ch the children took the parts of workmen and animals in the colouy. The effect wa excellent and it wa clear that the chil'dren understood the idea behind Kfar sshkin and conveyed it by means of song and action.
The other two items were connected with Succoth, the concert having first been ar- ranged for Succolh hut unavoidably posL- pouetl. They '\ere ho th delightfully original and ingenious and showed great skill and imagination on the part of the teacher. The children participated with great zest and
enlhu~iasrn and showed that the} grapsed full'y the significance of the f eslival.
Great credit is due to Miss laser f 01 the , ucc<'s~ of the concert; each item was brilliant i11 conceplio11 and c cellentlv carried out.
and it "as evident that th~ children an•
recei\ in~ an e.cellenl training in the Ilehrew l'angua~e and in Je,\ish relip:ion and tradi- tion.

The outstanding item of interest at Tue - day's meeting was the address of Prof. E.
Batson, the newly-appointed Professor of Sociofogy of the University of Cape Town, on the "Scientific Approach to Social Problems."
Human beings, aid the Professor, had learnt from experience that it paid them better to live in large groups. This S) stem had its advantages as well as drawbacks.
. ocial problems aro e when an attempt \\ s made to reconcile the cl'aims of the indi- vidual with Lhr claims of the group.
The world had never tried to solve it~
social prohl m::-; "< ientificalh. The ,·ci ntifi<' attitude lo lifr had onl'y sprung up for the last twelve generation and the possibility of a scientific attitude towards social problems had only he«:'n realised for the last four generations.
The salvation of the race fay in the hands of men and women but in certain things women ·were able to make better judgments than men.
When it came to the education of children, for instance, women had probably far more voice than men, and in matters of food, clothing and housing, women had greater control in the last analysis.
The address was listened to with great interest by the large audience: a l'ively dis- cussion followed and was concluded by a vote of thanks proposed by Miss Oblowitz.
Earlier in the afternoon Mrs. Nussbaum read a report on the annual meeting of the National Council of Women, and Mrs.
Gordon on the "Youth Aliyah" in Pal'estine.
Mrs. Sonnenberg spoke of the work of the Cape Town Committe~ for German Refugees. The latter were greatly handi- capped by their lack of a knowledge of English and would be glad of free lessons.
It was decided that this need would best be met by organised cl'asses and Mrs. Sloman was asked to take this matter in hand.
Mrs. Stode1 appealed to members of the Union to suoport the Fairhaven Fete, which is to be helrl on Tuesday, 19th November, at the Citv Hall on behalf of the hospitals.
Mrs. Clouts reminded members that the .Tews of the world were still' at war with Germany and urged women to continue boy- cotting German goods.

Miss E. Greenblall del'i\ ered the nc\\ ::;- sheet.
The peaker for the evening was Dr. I.
i\.l. H urwilz. The wording of the Balfour Declaration, said Dr. Hurwitz, was not ambiguous at all. There is no doubt at all that Lhe Declaratron meant the ultimate eslahlishment of a Jewish State in Pal'e - tine. Dr. Hurwitz illustrated this bv read- ing: extract from leading Engli h news- paper of that date. Great Britain would have liked it to he believed that the Balfour Declaration was given solely for sentiment, but she expected material benefit, a also the goodwill of the Jews, especially in Russia. The speaker concluded with the
\\ arning that we must not forget the rear meaning of the Balfour Decl'aration and in time to come we must not be afraid to face England and ask her to fulfil her promise.
A debate was then held: that England has carried out her obligations with regard to the Balfour Declaration and the Mandate.
1essrs. am Kriger and G. Diamond intro- duced the subject, whilst Messrs. Sol Kriger and W. Sebba opposed them. After the question had been discussed by the various speakers Dr. Hurwitz judged the opposers the winners: hence the motion was defeated . Dr. Hurwitz w a thanked for hi-.

THE S.A JEWISH CHRONICLE.
The speaker outlined the history of Habimah from the time when Gnessin.
Zemach and Rubina attempted to create a Hebrew theatre in Warsaw in 1913. This met with little success, but in 1917 a group of Hebrew actors \\as formed and they were attached to the Russian Art Theatre: thus was the first Hebrew theatre born in Mo · cow. After a serie of successes, achieved with no little effort, particularly on the part of the producer Stani lavsky, the Habimah players were encouraged to tour the various capitals of Europe. During this period their repertoire was considerably enlarged, and their whole scope widened. From ] 932, the Habimah players, now with an international reputation, have been estab- lished in Palestine.
Mr. Lehrman described in detail the pro- duction of Sholom Aleichem's "Das Grosse Gewins," which he ~ilnessed amongst others, in Palestine. He spoke in the most eulogistic terms of both artists and theatre.
Mrs. L. Satusky moved a very sincere vole of thanks to Mr. Lehrman.
