Tells How big Sister" Movement Is Aiding Girls

Do you remember how Huckleberry
Finn said:
"A body what don't get started right
when he's little, amt got much show"
OF course you do and isn't there a
lot of truth in it?
We are always hearing about in
fluences' and example" being the
readiest factors in most of our lives
ard we've all come to believe it.
The school teacher of our youngest
dramas. If she is the right Kind of
teacher often has as much influence
IN our lives and certainly ON our des-
TIMES, as those nearer to us of blood
kin.
1t means so much to a girl or a boy
to have some ideal to live up to- so to
speak some height to reach, and after.
mothers love and protection, her
sweet influence and counsel. there is
nothing more poignant in a child's life,
than some person who takes an interest
in them and gives them an incentive to
I've right, and do the right thing
The world is full of young girls today
who, when they are out at work, never
see home from, early morning until late
in the evening
They meet all sorts of people-are
thrown with all condition of men-and
the temptations that beset them are
many.
What more beautiful work than the
adult woman's Bible clas department of
the Birmingham Sunday School associa-
tion could be launched, then a sort of
protective movement as it WERE in
which the older women of character
ond reputation, seek out and find those
who need their care and love.
The Birmingham Sunday School as
sociation has done a great many fine
things-has undertaken many splendid
movements but nothing that it has
ever done will meet with more coop
Grafton and encoura gemdnt than what
they have termed thS big sister
noX ement.
Mrs. j. |. Blount, adult superinten-
dent of the central division has the
work under her direction. Associated
with her in the capacity of district
chairmen are Mrs. j. II. Cooper. Mrs.
j. II. Dean and DR.. Lola Taylor-all of
whom are well known Sunday school
workers.
