ing the plan and purpose Of the cam
paign was made by Leon C. Palmer,
general superintendent OF the South
Carolina Sunday School Association,
after which Mr.. Jones addressed the
audience on Fishers of Men. He
said that every Christian ought to be
a soulwinncr, and especially every
Sunday School teacher. The State
Sunday School Association and its
leadership, he said, should receive the
hearty support and cooperation OF all

sole purpose was to urge all Christians
to support heartily the plans Of their
own church and denomination.
