FIRST CREDITS OF SUNDAY
SCHOOL CONTEST CAMPAIGN

A letter was received from Mr.. FL.
w. Becker stating that the opponents
which he had planned to compete
with Barry County had dropped out
,of the race. Franklin County which
had been placed in another group for
a race is the only one in that group
going on with the campaign. Being
that Franklin County is not so much
ahead of Barry County, the County
Sunday School Officers have decided
to accept the challenge. Barry Coun-
ty had seventeen classes in the race
with total of 1927 credits. Frank
lin County had fifteen classes with a
total of 1O,81O credits.
If Barry County wins the race, each
Sunday school in the county will have
to do its part. Contest supplies were
sent to us many teachers of Adult
Glasses as could be obtained. AS the
County Sunday school officers are
not able to get the name and address
of each teacher of the Adult Classes,
any class wishing to enter the Contest
should write to Mr.. E. N. Meador,
Cassville, for supplies which are free
of charge. yaom se
Since the Four-Square Contest is
what might be called membership
and efficiency campaign, each Adult
Glass in the County should enter the
campaign intellectually.
According to the reports received
this week for Sunday March IL, Barry
, County will receive few more credits
than for week ago. Glasses should
make report as early in the week as
possible.
