COURSE OF STUDY FOR
SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS

To the Sunday School Workers o.
Wailowa County: Since the meeting
of the convention at Wallowa IL
the summer much valuable time has
passed unused in teacher-training. |
The elected superintendent could |
not visit all the Sunday schools IL.
the county and had not the list Oh
text books until very recently
hence the delay on his part.
Let me say word to sIperinten
dents, pastors, and teachers" NC
real attainment can be made in the
training school without your hearty
cooperation. The superintendent can
make suggestions, but can't put them
into effect. A leader is useless
without constituent following. Let
Us make Wallowa county the banner
Sunday school county in Oregon.
1. By each pastor stimulating the
teacher-training work in his church.
If the superintendent does not take
the work in hand let the pastor dc
so. Gather your teachers into a
class and see that text books ar,
secured and lender appointed.
2. Let superintendent and teach
ers enlist all the promising students
whom they can enlist in this work.
Let them know there is such work,
that it is important, profitable and
interesting.
8. Let those who can not attend
class meeting procure the text
books and enroll with the state asso-
