Visiting Teachers Were an
Ideal Crowd to Handle.
PresbyteriansWil Begin House
to House Canvass Sunday.

Although hundreds of teachers
crowded the Union Pacific station dur
ing the two days or the State Teach
ers' convention and conditions ap-
peared to be favorable for the work of
pickpockets not only were no COM
plants of rifled purses made to the
police but officers on the lookout for
suspicious characters at the station
failed to recognize a single sleight of
hand performer.
Both police and street railway men
declare that the teachers were the
easiest convention delegates to handle
that have been here in some time. AL
most without exception, the visiting
school teachers who boarded cars at
the Union Pacific station had their
nickels ready Their questions were
in most cases to the point and no great
difficulty was encountered in making
things clear to them
Start Campaign Sunday.
Eighteen committees representing
North Topeka will begin house to
house canvass for new members at
noon Sunday. These workers will con-
tinue for fourteen days, the duration
of the evangehstic campaign that will
be inaugurated Sunday by all the
churches of the North side.
Practically every other North To-
peka church will hold services during
the fourteen days of the campaign A
special team has been doing personal
work for the Presbyterian church for
some time and it was decided to
handle the evangelisttc work along
the same lines.
