Change in Field and Office Force
On September 1, 1905, Mr.. John W. Wright, the
perntendent of the Champaign District resigned to &C
cept work in Iowa. Since then that district has been
under the of the Chicago Office and has been
inally in charge of Mr. Sam Ficke. The first part of
January, the Rev. Banner E. Shawhan appointed
superintendent of this district but took sick before he
was able to do any work. and after long struggle
passed from Since then the field has again been
looked after from the Chicago office.
During the early part Of January, Mr.. R. O. Ever

Freeport was elected at the time to the position
of general field worker and solicitor and has since
been stationed at DeKalb and Freepor the northern
