One -Hundreth Anniversary.


The American Sunday School
Union announces preparations
for the celebration of its tooth
anniversary the coming year. It
has had remarkable record of
results and is now widely known
as a powerful factor in the relig-
|ious and social development of
rural America. Approximately
4 100000 Sunday schools have
been founded, or an average Of
about four day. Thus, literally,
millions of children have been
taught the principles of Chris
tianity and the advantages of up
right living. And in addition to
these millions of children, many
thousands of parents have be-
come converted to Christian lives
as direct result Of the society's
work.
At the present time there are
more than $50 active field mis-
|sionaries promoting the work of
the American Sunday School I'm
ion throughout the country. 1t is
the particular work of these mis-
|siOnaries to establish and equip
Sunday schools in communities
which are without religious de-
|velopment. Much of their work
is in undeveloped sections Of the
country and difficult of access.
Many of them have experienced
the most severe hardships.
The American Sunday School
Union is on-denominational in
form and INSTRUMENTATION in
its work. Its headquarters are
lat 1916 Chestnut Street, Phila-
delphia, Pa, fully occupying
large four story building, where
an extensive force of people is
|employed. Its board of managers
consists OF laymen representing
seven different denominations.
No publications can he issued by
tho society to which any one
member objects. In summing up,
/ it might be said that the whole
object of the organization is to
serve as a practical and efficient
agency in the promotion of Sun
day school work and in social,
intellectual and spiritual devel-
Opment of rural communities
throughout the country.
The principal officers are as
follows: President, Martin
Luther Finckel: vice presidents,
Glarkson Clothier and James F.
IStone. M. d.: recording secretary,
William III. Hirst: treasurer, John
| II. Stevenson. Rev. G. P. Will
liams, ID. D.. is secretary of Mis-
lsions and Prof. James McCon-
aughy, editor of the society's
publications.
The western district includes
1.-THE states of Iowa, Nebraska and
South Dakota. In these states
lare located forty Sunday school
missionaries. whose work is to
lorganiZr and rcorganize Sunday
schools i'm needy districts, visit
The people in their homes, dis
Tribute bibles and other Chris
tian literature, hold evangelistic
meetings with their schools in
the winter months, and encour-
lage and build up the schools in
the summer months by visits. raj
llics and group gatherings. In a
WORD these men are general pas
Itors over their schools and seek
to develop them in general Sun
day school efficiency.
