The idea of junior camps in the Order Sons of Zion is rapidly gaining headway, according to Isaac Allen, grandmaster, who announced today that the second camp of this kind has already been temporarily organized in Newark. The first junior camp, comprised of thirty charter members between the ages of 18 and 21, known as Friends of Zion Camp, was formally installed last Saturday night, in New York.
These camps are the direct outgrowth of a resolution adopted at the last annual convention of the Order. The youth who comprise the membership will concern themselves primarily with Zionist cultural and educational endeavor.
