Report of James P. Prince,
Secretary of Lawrence Co.
Sunday School Association

have visited the State convention,
also district conve ltions and have
written about 20 letters Have visited
IL different schools. some three or four
times, giving about 20 Sunday School
talks during the year: Travelled over
400 miles. At my last report had
Ss.7o in my hands; since that time
have received from Charley conven-
ton, Evergreen and WalnuA Gap
schools $3.50, making total of $12.2s.
I gave the State Secretary check for
same. Since then received from Eliz-
abeth Hatten $5.3S, this amount is still
in my hands.
We think the Sunday School work is
improving fine as we find 55 schools in
the county and there may be some we
have not heard from. There have been
but two district conventions held this
summer, trust the district officers
will go to work and hold their con-
ventions at once. We should be en-
couraged i'm this years work as we are
having more schools and better schools
than for some time.
AS we will soon enter on a new
years work, let us all work harder and
pray more than ever before. The Sun
day School workers will never know
what great good they are accomplish
ing but go on do your best and leave
the results in the hands of God who
win do all things right.
There is one thing we all should be
proud OF, there are more schools in
Lawrence county than in any county
east of Covington, in fact there are
very few counties in the State having
more schools than Lawrence county.
don't think there is a county in the
State that has less criminals than
Lawrence. think the Sunday Schools
have a great deal to do with 1t, The
fight that commenced 275 years ago in
favor of temperance has gained the
victory and John Barleycorn is almost
a thing of the past
The Sunday School Convention this
year was sad one as Hon. r. t. Burns
had Just passed away. He was great
friend to the Sunday Schools as he
was president of the Lawrence County
Association for 20 years. When 1 was
holding district conventions was glad
10 see Brother Burns coming as he
always put new life into a convention.
i can imagine how he would sing
Wen roll. roll. the old chariot along"
d. L. Moody said some day 1t would
be dispatch over the wires, ID. u.
Moody ia dead" but there wouldn't be
a word Of truth in It, / will be more
alive than ever before. SO brother
Burns is not dead and will still live
in the minds of the Sunday School
people of Lawrence county.

There is only one way to meet all
American needs. That one way is
work Prices win not come down until
production Increases, no matter who
is Governor or President, or whether
Congress is Republican, or Democratic.
The law of supply and demand is the
only remedy Idleness and half-time
work are doing more to nullify that
law than all other things combined.
You can not reduce the cost of living
by bowling about it. But the cost can
be reduced by everybody doing more
and better work in every line.

GENEVA. April s.-A telegram re-
ceived at Lugano from Triest as
serts that the Italo-Jugoslav commits
sion, which has been in consultation
regarding an Adriatic settlement, has
reached an agreement concerning the
Adriatic points under which it obtains
sovereignty over Fiume.
The Jugoslavs, under the reported
agreement, would receive susak, the
Canale Della Fiumara, the Porto
Baross and the port of Volosca. The
port of Abrazia. just to the south
west Of Volosca. would remain Ital-
ian. with the Jugoslavs receiving
Scutari. on the Albanian coast. as
compensation.
Gabrielle D'Annunzio, the fnsurgent
commander at Fiume, is declared to
be strongly against the arrange
ment.
The report credits Premier Lloyd
George as being the author OF the
settlement proposition, regarding
which the opinion of President Wilson
was not asked by the allies. 1t is de-
clared.
