Is CAN TO Philadelphia

ITO this end the Philadelphia Sunday
School Association is calling upon the citi-
ZCnShip Of the city to give its personal in
dorSemcnt and moral support to the Sunday
schools in the city on Sunday, November 81
The thing that we ask is very simplc-it
is that all the men, women and children Of
the city on that day. if for no other, go to
the churches and at least attend the sun
day school service Of n church, and by their
presence put their stamp of personal APP
proval upon the inCStmnblC service that the
Sunday school teachers and officers Of this
city are rendering. We shall ask the mem
b"rs of our Sunday schools to take blanks
and go out among the people and ask them
to sign IN in the mnttcr of attending Sun
day school on the 9th.
1T surely cannot happen that there are
any individuals in the city so unappreci-
ativc as not to desire to lend their support
by their attendance ON Good Citizenship
Day on November -. The Sunday school
makes good citizens. Go to Sunday school
