Over two thousand children are expected to attend the huge Jewish Arbor Day Festival to be held under the auspices of Young Judaea, the national league for Zionist youth, this Wednesday, February 12, at the Washington Irving High School.
Representatives of 175 clubs of young boys and girls in the city of New York and environs will attend the festival en masse, under the leadership of adults in charge of the groups. The program will include dances, tableaux, a play, mass singing, and a two-reel motion picture. The speaker of the afternoon will be Rabbi Israel Goldstein of Congregation B’nai Jeshurun, who is national president of Young Judaea. Bags of Palestine fruits will be distributed to all those present.
