! DEAR BRETHERN-We take pleasure in ad
visng you We nave secured the low rate OF
one fare for the round-trip from all points
| on the Missouri Pacific, Iron Mountain and
| Missouri, Kansas & Texas railroads to
| Sedalia and return for delegates attending
/ our State Sunday School convention, good
! from August Is to IS inclusive. All other
lines will make one and one-thrd fare Ni
/ they do not meet the one-fare rate) on the
certificate plan.
/ SedaIia workers are making every arrange.
| ment in their power to provide entertain
ment for delegates during the convention,
| August IA to II inclusive.
Names of all delegates should be sent at
the earliest moment possible to j. NJ. Cain,
| Esq, corner Second and Usage streets,
| Sedalia, Mo.
The executive committee desire the presi
| dent. secretary and treasurer of each and
| every county association to meet them at
| Sedalia for special conference for an ad-
vance all along the lines.
This convention must plan for the COM
! plete organization of every county, so that
| Missouri shall be the Banner State at the
| seventh International and the second
| Worlds convention in 1898. America is the
| banner Nation of the world in Sunday
| school work. If we all do our duty, can
| make Missouri the banner State of the ban
ner Nation.
| The response to the calls of the State exc.
cutive committee during the past three
| years, which resulted in Missouri sending
| one of the largest and most influential
delegations to the sixth International con-
vention in Pittsburgh, Pa, in June this
year, makes US confident that every Sunday
school worker in the State, especially the
presidents of county associations, their exc.
cutiye officers and their township officers
will unite heartily in bringing the counties
into line promptly, that the tide of pros
perity may be felt in every county it is
being felt now wherever active effort is
being made. Success has attended our eff.
forts tn year beyond all precedent and
your personal help will be of great benefit
to our church, your county and our State at
large.
If everv township vice pres ident could
be at the State convention it would
strengthen and encourage them for better
work. If it were possible, every Sunday.
school in the State should send one more
delegates to the State convention.
We have splendid programme, includ-
ing some of the very best speakers in our
own as well as neghboring States, and We
want good report from each county, doth
oral and written, for future reference) CIV.
ing a complete list of all county and town
ship officers. name and post office address,
as well as the name and post office address
of the superintendent of every Sunday
school in each county.
Will you see that every superintendent in
your county is fully advised of our State
convention, and urge each school to be rep.
resented Fraternity yours.
