The con vention is being called “The Wonder Convention” and, judging from the pro gram arranged, the name is well jus tified. The program this year has been very carefully planned. Much will be ac complished at the short interesting business and educational sessions. Ar rangements have been made to secure prominent speakers from other com munities, who will make short, worth while talks at each session. Discus sions concerning Jewish problems and the individual will be a part of the program. Banquets, motor trips, theater par ties, dances, swimming parties, all-day picnics, watermelon cuttings are a few of the affairs planned to insure every one a good time. At the banquet, which will he held on the opening night, each city is to put on a stunt, and a prize will be awarded to the best presen tation. A great many of the older boys and girls, Young Judaeans of the past, and present leaders will attend this conven tion. Plans are being especially made for them, with a dinner to he held on August 5th, affording an opportunity to renew old friendships. Arrangements have been made whereby reduced rail road fares will be available to the con vention from almost all points in the South. Already excursion rates have been definitely provided from New Or leans and the other Gulf cities, includ ing Mobile, Savannah, Jacksonville, and all other points in Florida. This is the first time that reduced fares from so many cities have been made available for the convention, and a much larger attendance than ever is therefore an ticipated. The convention this year is to be open not only to those already affili ated with Young Judaea, but to others as well. Those living in cities where there are no Young Judaean clubs are invited to attend and learn of the ac tivities of the organization. Delegates and visitors are being placed in Jewish homes in Atlanta for the duration of the convention, as soon as their names are sent in to Miss Bessie Geffen, 593 Washington Street, S. W., Atlanta, Ga., inasmuch as it was deemed not expedient to place the young representatives in hotels. bile, Ala., was elected presid* General Alumni Association , r ;. , Hill College.
