State Emblem.
The Sunday Schools Of Mason coun-
ty have the opportunity of designing
a flag or banner to be adopted by the
Kentucky Sunday School Association
as the official emblem for this organi-
zation for the future. This privilege
was granted Mrs. J. c. Burwell, Chair
man OF the "Go-to-Sunday-Schoor
campaign for Mason county by Mr..
George A. Joplin, President of the
Kentucky Sunday School Association
This distinctive privilege, If accepted
and conditions fully complied with
will characterize Maysville and Mason
county as leaders in this work, and
will consequently become a matter OF
historical record, to which we can re-
fer with just pride. Every great
movement or organization must nave
an emblem, which fully expresses It's
purposes and policies. Who VIII be
the one to create such an emblem LOT
the Kentucky Sunday Scnoo' Assocfa-
ton? Other plans for the campaign
follow and each Sunday School is re-
ouested to accept them with the hope
that Mason county will have the lar
gest attendance on "Go-to-Sunday-
School Day, based upon the popula-
ton of the county.
First-It is recommended that each
school put up a big sign IN front OF
their own church, the Sunday previous
and kept up until Go-to-Sunday-
School-Day.
Second-That each school send out
its own form of card or invitation and
try to get every one possible to come
and also to provide autos for snut-lns
and ay-at-homes.
Third-That as far as is practical
that each school use the program got
ten out by the State Association
These will be furnished free of charge
upon application to the genial chair
man. Mrs. ]. C. Burwell. 1t is urged,
however. that each school make more
of the lesson study hour, that 1t may
be a real spiritual uplift as this seems
more important than any especially
attractive program.
Fourth-That each school have its
classes enter the Jingle Contest.
This means that each class is to make
rhyme or jingle on Go-to-Sunday-
Schoo-Dya and turn in the same al
Chamber of Commerce by April l9th
where they will be read over and the
best ones printed in the daily papers.
Fifth-That each school pay its pro-
portionate part of the general ex-
penses incurred by the Sunday School
Drive for the city and county. 1t Is
also asked in view of the fact that
Mason county fell short of her quota
5000, for the State Association for last
year that each school contribute Its
entire collection to the Kentucky Sun
day School Association.
Further plans of the city were
made by the general committee as fol-
lows:
First-That every child in the grad
ed schools be urged to write a jingle
on Go-to-Sunday- School-Day, and
same to be handed in by April 18th at
Chamber of Commerce where the best
best will be judged and published in
the daily papers. Prof. c. S. Dale to
have charge of this contest.
Second-Each family in town is ask
ed to make flag suitable for Go-to-
Sunday -School-Day using notices
colors or signs or anything to bring
out any individual idea appropriate
for the Go-to-Sunday-Sch
Size to be determined by the maker
These flags are-asked to be displayed
on small flag staff one week before
Go-to-Sunday-School-Day, after which
they will be collected and judged and
the best one displayed at the State
Convention in Ashland then finally
selected for the State Go-to-Sunday-
School-Day flag for all time to come.
Third-The best composition anyone
will write on "Why Go to Sunday
School" will be published in the daily
papers il handed in at Chamber OF
Commerce one week before May 4th.
