THE SUNDAY SCHOOL MASS MEETING.
The Annual Joint Meeting 20 Collect Funds
for Christmas Gifts TO the Poor.

The annual joint meeting of all the
Sunday Schools of the city to raise
funds for the purchase of Christmas
gifts for the poor and needy will be
held il the Presbyterian Church next
Sunday afternoon Not only all Sun
day School children but all who are IN
terested in the Sunday Schools and in
the perpetuation of this beautiful Gus
tom of providing good cheer for the
poor of Sumter on Christmas day are

is unique in this State in providing
each Christmas for the poor, and as
the city grows 1t becomes necessary to
raise each year larger fund if the
custom of years is to be maintained
and no family permitted to 90 without
a real Christmas dinner. Everybody
who can should attend the meeting
and go prepared and give as literally
as their means permit and their hearts
prompt. Those who cannot be present
should remember tie sspoor and send
their contributions to swell the funds.
