Jewish Artisans Exhibition is Arranged in Germany

(Jewish Telegraphic Agency)

An exhibition of work by Jewish master artisans, journeyman artisans and apprentices will be held in Leipzig in May in connection with the conference of the Jewish Artisans’ Union of Germany called for May 30th and 31st. The exhibition is intended to demonstrate the ability of the Jew as an artisan.

An appeal has just been issued by the Central Union of Jewish Artisans in Germany to all Jewish artisans in the country to help in setting up teaching centres for the Jewish youth.

Thousands of Jewish boys and girls, the appeal says, on leaving school, will be looking for a means of earning their livelihood. It is the duty of the Jewish master artisans to give the younger Jewish generation the opportunity of carrying on their work. Every Jewish master artisan in the country should take on one or more of these young Jews as apprentices.
