The November 1941, vol. 19, no. 19 issue of The Bulletin, a World War II era newsletter of the Louisville Section of the National Council of Jewish Women in Kentucky. The issue opens with an address from local president Esther J. Handmaker (addressed in the officers list as Mrs. Herman Handmaker). She calls for council members to "give our time an energies . . . generously" in support of "volunteer training and service for the success of the National Defense Program depends upon the strength of that volunteer effort." She situates the efforts as a present-day "emergency need" and "firm foundations" for the future. Next, the issue provides a detailed list of "chairmen" and "leaders in every important activity." Local updates follow, including an announcement for an upcoming book talk with Willie Snow Ethridge, an advertisement for "a Singing Message" program, and projects by the Social Welfare Committee in partnership with the Children's Convalescent Home. The issue requests donations for the National Service to foreign Born and advertises ongoing refugee support in the fields of education, household supplies, and entertainment. The issue then turns to updates and announcements regarding Red Cross membership, study groups, Council Workshop, new members, Memorial fund, membership dues, the Night Group, and the upcoming November conference meeting. The final page is an acrostic poem using the words "Victory for Council" to highlight some of the Council's values and efforts.
