Activity at Trinity Sunday-school.

A plan looking towards the general
improvement of Trinity Methodist
Sunday-school has been set going and
the school seems to be in splendid
way to do much better work for the
church than ever before. The Oh
ganization of the Herbert Bible Class
has already been spoken of in these
columns and the work of that class
is beginning to tell already. Last
Sunday afternoon there were over so
present in that class alone. The in
termediate and primary grades num-
bered with their teachers over 100.
bringing the total to about 153.
The military feature has been
adopted in the school and hereafter
each class will be known as a COM
pany. For instance the little class
of beginners is known as class A.
Harriet Virgins is the captain and
Mrs. J. w. Stokes is the teacher. To
see these little tots fall in line and
march is well worth seeing, and when
the older classes have fallen in with
the tots, sight is enough to make
any ones heart feel glad. The cap
tains of the companies in addition to
the one already mentioned are as fol-
lows: Company B, Aegina Knight
captain, Mrs. H. J. Brabham teacher;
company C, Jackson Herbert captain,
Miss Myra Hooton teacher; company

Knight teacher. The adult Bible class
class will be known as company L, Mr..

bert being the teacher.
The classes are beginning to take
hold of the organized class work and
it is expected that number of them
will be fully organized with their
necessary officers at an early date.
The officials of the school now are
as follows: Rev. T. G.. Herbert, pas
tor; NJ. w. Brabham, superinteud-
ent; J. w. Stokes assistant superin-
tendent; C. R. Brabham, superin-
tendent of classification; w. D.
Rhoad, secretary and treasurer;
Kirkland Graham, librarian. The
committee in charge of collecting and
distributing the song books is as fol-
lows: Edwin Bruce chairman, Pinch-
ney Smoak and Johnnie Folk.
In addition to the teachers named
with the foregoing classes there are
several substitute teachers, all OF
whom come with the lesson thorough.
ly prepared 80 as to be able to take
charge of some class if the regular
teacher should be absent. These are
Miss Hattie Lou Smoak, Miss Hattie
Sue Brabham, Mrs. NJ. A. Adams,
Miss Linnie Riley, and Miss Pearl
Black.
Some statistics about the school
might be of interest. There are i9
officers and teachers; there are in the
primary and intermediate depart
ments 120 pupils and conservatives
estimating the Bible class at IS, the
exact enrolment of which cannot be
given just at this time, there are al!
told in the school 214 members.
This does not include the cradle
roll department with it's twenty men,
bers.
The officers of the school have an
interesting campaign on for the
month of August about which further
notice will appear later; in the mean
time everybody is extended a cordial
invitation to attend the school every
Sunday afternoon at 5 o'clock.
