As Superintendent of the M.
E. Sunday School,

The Sunday school of the First NJ. E.
church will, on next Sunday. for the first
time in twenty-five years, have a new
superintendent. in the person Of o. a.
:, Boyle, who was last night elected to sue
coed Hon. W. z. Stanley. To many the
change may seem strange, but there will
: be no disappointment and very little sur
fpise, as it has long been known that w.
z. Stanley as governor of Kansas could
be with the Sunday school no longer; but
he wonder was as 70 who his successor
could he. Several faithful workers had
been men+ toned, among them p. A Rohr-
baugh, Hiram IuabOden, W. J. Frazier and
James Allison, and when the school
board met last night to elect officers for
the new year, each OF these gentlemen
was put in nomination for the Office. The
vote was as follows: Boyle, 9; Rohrbaugh.
g; Imboden, !; Frazier, /; Allison, L The
election Of Mr.. Boyle was then made
unanimous.
The other officers elected for the new
year are as follows: First assistant super
tntendent, Hiram Imboden; second as
sistant, George z. Campbell; third assist
ant, Miss Anna Mason; treasurer, w. J.
Frazier; superintendent Of the primary
department Miss AIcElhaney; musical di-
rector, Thomas Shaw; organist, Miss
Gertie Froman; missionary treasurer
Mrs. Daniels; illustrator, Joseph Mussel-
man; librarians, John Rohr, Roy Leonard
Charles Jones and Carl Oldfeld.
Mr. ROhrbaugh then created a new Of
Gee by having adopted the following reso-
ution:
Resolved, That we remember with a
keen sense OF satisfaction the untiring,
Unselfish and devoted services of SUperin-
tendent Stanley fer the many years past
in our school, and deeply regret his en-
forced absence from our midst; and as a
mark of our appreciation we hereby con-
stitute him a superintendent emeritus of
The First NJ. E. Sunday school Of Wichita,
SKan."
! The resolution was unanimously adopted
ind Mr. Stanley though he cannot be a
superintendent, is still an officer in his
beloved Sunday school.
Miss McElhaney chose as her assistant
h the primary department Mrs. c. /
Fuller. There viii be an effort made TO
ave an orchestra for the little folks next
saF.
Nr. OrviIle 4 Boyle, who was elected
oerintendent to succeed Governor-elect
l. Inley, needs no introduction to either
new charge or to the public at large.
r several years he has been a faithful
Nd earnest worker for this body of young
Christians, ever watchful and eager in
the developing of the work. He has been
for a long time the constant and greatly
respected teacher Of Glass No. % Of this
Sunday school, and outside of the usual
Sabbath day services it has been his effort
10 study his class and meet them in
social way, by means of receptions and
parties in their honor. For the past two
seasons he has been manager of the Wich-
tia Lyceum course, and in the business
world is recognized as one of the rising
staunch young men whose integrity IS be-
yond reproach. He succeeded Mr.. A.
Viele in the real estate brokerage bust
ness, and in business circles, as well as
N church and social Affairs, he years the
respect and esteem Of ah mis- co-workers.
The selection Of him as superintendent Of
the largest Sunday school organization in
Kansas was timely and meritOrious, and
it is safe TO predict that he viii bring to
bear IN his new Office all the same stead
fast zeal and conscientious energy which
have marked his efforts in the past along
other lines.
