the best sort of reconstruction
nevertheless. Designated the New
Era Movement" the program calls
for the expenditure of $4,000, 900
within the next five years in ways
that will benefit society.
Yesterday the sum of $1,000, 900
was appropriated to increase the sal

"NINE LITTLE INDIANS"

The first Sunday School to meet a
100 per cent allotment in the Cente,
nary Campaign of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, South, is little
Indian Sunday School at Wetumpka,
Okla. The allotment for this SUI
day school was forty-five cents per
pupil per year for five years a
check for the entire five years has
been received at headquarters in
Nashville. 1t was not such a large
check after all. because there are
only nine pupils in the Sunday
School, but the afct that these little
Creek Indian boys and girls, as indi-
viduals, have met their Centenary
Sunday School obligation is inspir-
ing to the Sunday School workers.
DR.. j. l.. Neill, who is looking after
the Sunday school interests in con-
nection with the Centenary, declares
that the Indians are proving mo st
loyal supporters of the church at this
time The Chief of the Creek tribe
is himself a Methodist minister and
the mefbers of his tribe and the foar
other civilized tribes in Oklahoma
are displaying an enthusiastic spirit
toward the Centenary and the things
for which it stands.
