RALLY DAY AT TRINITY.
Wesley Class and Sunday-School Re
organize for Fall Campaign.

organize for Fall Campaign.
The Rally Day exercises of Trinity
Sunday-school brought a full attend
| ance at the Sunday-school hour last
Sunday, and the exercises were not
| only interesting and impressive but
showed rare equipment for the great
work of training young people in the
knowledge of the Bible and the SER
| vice of Christ.
The efficient, wide-awake superin-
tendent, Mr.. A. B. Utsey, and his able
assistants have been steadily striv-
ing to make the school not merely
large as to enrolment, but really ef-
ficient as a church school. Mr.. Utsey
has now gathered about him a con-
secrated band of efficient, trained
helpers as officers and teachers that
must approach very nearly the ideal
of Sunday-school efficiency. We
doubt if such an organization can be
found in many other schools of the
State, and We do not believe a su-
perior organization can be found any
where.
The school, under the general su-
perintendency of Mr.. Utsey, is now
divided into departments, each under
an efficient superintendent. Prof. E..
P. Allen is educational superintend-
ent, and with his trained skill will
steadily strive to perfect the. grading
and apply the most effective plans for
effective teaching. Mrs. E. O. Kirsch
is superintendent of the junior and
intermediate departments, and with
her experience, ability, and enthusi-
asm will aid in making these depart
ments most efficient. Miss Alma
Black, who is most literally endowed
by nature and training with the
graces, accomplishments, and enthu-
siasm required in that most vital de-
partment, will have the superintend-
ency of the beginners and primary
department. Mrs. D. j. Delk, with
consecrated enthusiasm, will push
the work of the home department.,
striving to enlist all who cannot at
tend Sunday-school in the study of
the lessons and tie them to the
school. Mrs. w. D. Rhoad will con-
tinue her splendid work with the
cradle roll department, which has al
ready proven so efficient an agency Of
the Sunday-school under her manage
ment. Special temperance and mis-
sionary teaching will be under the
direction of committees headed by
Prof. R. T. Fairey, and Miss Bessie
Lee Black. Messrs. Glenn w. Cope
and E. L. Price, Jr., will serve as
secretaries, Mr.. w. D. Rhoad as
treasurer, Mr.. M. P. Watson as mar
shall, and Messrs. Clarence Arm
strong and Marion Rhoad as libra
rians, and Prof. S. A. Merchant will
assist Mr.. Utsey in the work of gen.
eral superintendency. In each Of
these departments there is corps of
trained teachers, each practically a
specialist, realizing very nearly the
ideal that prevails in the common
schools of only trained men and
women for the work of teaching.
These officers and teachers were
formally installed with appropriate
and impressive ceremony Sunday-af-
ternoon, after which the promotion
of pupils was announced and each
class, practically full, was organized
for the years work.
