THREE VIRGIN ms | CHOSE
OFFICERS Of S 5. UNION
William Garland, @. e. Hendrick and
Miss Ella Cummins Chosen OFF,
GERS at the St. Louis County Sum
day School Convention. -

The Virginian delegation to the
St. Louis County Sunday School con-
vention held at Two Harbors last
week contributed three officers to
the temporary organization made by
the division of the former associa-
ton. The officers chosen temporari-
ly ut.l the organization can be
perfected are: President, Rev. E
F. Stidd, Ely; vice president, Viii
liam Garland, Virginia; secretary,
Miss Florence Nankervis, Ely; treas.
urer, Mrs. Helmcuth, Hibbing, SUI
perintendent of elementary depart
'nent, Miss Shelby, Eveleth; super
intendent of the advanced depart
ment, Fred Johnson, Tower; superin-
tendent of the adult department, DR.
C. w. Bray, Biwabtk; superintend
ent of the teachers training depart
ment, Miss Ella Cummins, Virginia;
superintendent of the home depart
ment, Mrs. Turner, Gilbert; super
Of the missionary depart
ment, Mrs. Taylor, Chisholm; SUI
perintendent Of the temporary de-
c. E. Hendrick, Virginia.
These officers will hold Office until
the new organization is perfected,
which will probably be done at a
to be called within few
weeks, and at which time it is quite
likely that the temporary organiza-
ton will be made permanent. The
division of the county association
was deemed advisable because of the
large territory and long distances,
in addition to the different condi-
tons Of the two fields. There will
be between forty and fifty schools in
the new range association.
