a talk on recreation by Mr.. Yonce,
vice principal of the Lord Baltimore
school. The class is always glad to
welcome visitors and make them feel
at home in our midst. All men are
welcome any Sunday morning at
$3.50 a. m. to meet with us and help
in the study of the word of God, as
our object is only to help the other
fellow.
A new ChiIdren's Department of
the Sunday school of st. Georges
Church has been formed under the
direction of Miss Lindseth, the diree-
tor for the Selbyville Group of
Churches. The boys and girls of the
classes taught by Mrs. Katie Hudson,
Mrs. Olive Clogg and Mrs. Florence
West will hereafter meet in sepa-
rate room for their own worship
service. During the month of Novem-
ber the theme of these worship ser
vices will be thankfulness for Gods
gifts, the scripture and hymns to be
bearing on this subject.
It is the hope of the teachers and
officers of the school that a strong
Department may be de-
and all children of the COM
raunity up to twelve years of age are
cordially invited to attend and be-
come members of the school.
