IS CALLED TO
 TENNESSEE Judge Carthel Gets Flat
 tering Offer. HIS HELP IS WAIVED Tennessee Wants Alabama Sunday
 School System. The oner Was Made Judge Csrthei By Recent sunday school conven- tion HeId in Nashville
 Now Considering 1t.

Judge Joseph Carthel. General Sec- retary of the Alabama Sunday School Association, who has been attending the sessions of the Tennessee Sunday School Association in Nashville. has been extended call by the Tennessee Association to leave his headquarters in Alabama that he might take charge of the reorganization of Tennessee and place the Sunday Schools of that State in the same fiourishing condition that he has attained for the Alabama Schools.
 The vote of the Tennessee Associa- tion to call Judge Carthel to the work was adopted by the association by unanimous vote. Judge Carthell has Tennessee during the past summer and winter. For a little while this spring he was engaged in active work in the southeastern part of the State before attending the sessions of the State Con- ventlon just adjourned in Birmingham.
 His work in Tennessee has received the highest commendation, and when his name was presented to the conven- ton the vote was unanimous.
 Judge Carthell has not acted upon the call, and the many friends which he has in this State hope that he will refuse the call and continue his highly successful work among the Sunday Schools of Alabama.
 A Nashville paper says of the call which was extended at a Sunday School convention held in Nashville:
 "The most interesting feature of the convention appeared at its closing ses. sion last night. The Committee on Plan of Work for the Future urged that in order to reorganize the State thoroughly and place it upon a high plane equal to any State in the South. the convention should call Judge Jo- seph Cartheli. who is now and has for many years been General Secre- tary of the Alabama State Sunday School Association. There has been a sincere desire upon the part of the leaders of the Tennessee Association to secure Ehe services of Judge Carthei, and when the proposition was put be- ; fore the convention 1t carried unani- mously provided sufficient fund could be guaranteed on the basis of which Judge Carthell might be called to the work. The convention agreed to guar antee S2,5o0 per year for two years to this end and instructed the Central Committee to invite Judge CarthelI to come to Tennessee. subject to action, however, by his own Alabama Sunday School Association.

was hurtful to them as the Sooners were
very fast. The score at the end of the
first stood II to 0. During the interview
