Mendele Personal Notices & Announcements Jan. 6, 2010-01-06
To minimize wear and tear on the untershames, three requests: 1. Send time-sensitive notices well in advance. 2. Send material as plain text: no HTML, other coding, or attachments; and write MENDELE PERSONALS in the subject line. 3. Correspond directly with the person who or organization which has posted the notice, *not* with your ever-beleaguered untershames. _______________________________________________________________________ Date: Mon, 4 Jan 2010 11:11:37 -0800 (PST) From: League for Yiddish <[email protected]> Subject:Mendele Notice: Nayer numer Afn Lekoved dem 100stn yoyvl fun di Yidish-veltlekhe shuln Nayer numer Afn Shvel Lekoved dem 100stn yoyvl fun di Yidish-veltlekhe shuln (English follows the Yiddish) Zaynen zey geven tsienistish, komunistish, pro-Ivrit, anti-Ivrit, ateistish, traditsionel, progresiv, yidishistish?
