The Audubon County Sunday School
association met Wednesday in the
Christian church, but the rain of the
previous night surely kept many
away who otherwise would have been
here. Vice President, 6. d. Bertch Of
Gray called the session to order and
Mr.. Mitchell of Des Moines took up
the subject to have been taken UP by
MS wife, Mrs. Mary Barnes Mitchell,
State Secretary. Afternoon session,
took up the papers on the program.
Mrs. +. r. Mclaughlin of Gray read a
paper on F" Temperance Teaching in
the Sunday School" which was fol-
lowed by lively discussion. Rev.
Wilcox of Brayton, and Rev. Hink-
mouse were both present to take their
places on the program. The evening
session was to be supplied by lecture
py lev. z. J. Kephart, President of
Iowa State Sunday School Associate
ton. This was bound to be good as he
is strong man intelluctally and able
to give good thoughts. We are not
able to give the second days work as
events over which we had no control
prevented our being present. We wish
to say that the success of the program
was due to the energy OF Rev. Bertch,
the Vice President as he did most of
1T and labored under tremendous diff
cultles, because of some not doing as
they promised. The township officers
have done some splendid work how
ever and are to be congratulated upon
their conventions each onehave or are
prepared to hold conventions. 1t takes
time to develope any system in coun-
try and each year throws the school of
the country in closer touch and con-
tact than the succeeding year so that
the system now pursued will soon be-
come fixture and success.
