HIGH SCHOOL PUPILS
START Bible CLASS
Seventy-Five Boys to Hold Friday
Night Meetings at the
Y. M. c. A.
A. M. CHESLEY THE ORIGINATOR

Seventy-five high school boys met at
dinner at the Y. NJ. C. A. last night and
organized a high school Bible study
movement!
Albert NJ. Chesley, director OF the boys
department of the Y. NJ. c. A, is the
originator and promoter of the move
ment, which will continue under his i'm
mediate supervision. The boys will meet
every Friday night at the Y. NJ. c. A.
for 6 o'clock dinner. after which they
will devote themselves to Bible study
until 7:3O o'clock.
Courses and teachers were discussed
after the dinner last night. The most
popular course seemed to be the regular
Sunday school lesson of the senior
graded series. This course is called
''The World a Field for Christian Serv-
ice" Some of the delegations elected
officers. Teachers of the various dele
cations probably will not be chosen be-
fore the next meeting.
Frank Daniel, principal of Technical,
and DR.. w. s. Small, principal of East
ern High, were present at the dinner,
and both expressed themselves as warm
Iy interested in the plan. The classes
will be organized by schools, each class
as a separate table. IT is the aim of
Mr. Chesley to make a successful ap-
portionment of pleasure, good-fellowship
and study the distinguishing features of
this new movement.
