DOES BOOSTING
PAX?
Some Results Obtained by first
Methodist Sabbath School
Workers.
The firot of this year, the "Boo3t"
microbe got his grip on the Methodist
Sunday School, with such telling effect,
that the members with but few ex
ceptions, now have a chronic case of
"Boost-itis".
So effective has the boosting iieen,
that the present enrollment surpassses
any former record. The average at
tendance for the first quarter of last
year was 107, while this year, for the
same period, it was 180, a gain of 73.
The present enrollments 2S6 and new
members are being added every Sab
bath. There were 257 present last
Sabbath.
There is a membership contest now
being waged, between a class of young
ladies, taught by Mrs. C. V. Littler anil
a class of young men, taught by Mr.
A, M. Hammer. Last Sunday there
were 41 in the young ladies class and
44 in the young mens class. The class
having the greatest number of points,
when the contest closes, May 2nd, will
be banqueted by the other class.
Mr. J. B. Cou ei 1 1 has offered to ban
quet the Adult Bible Study Class, of
of which he is teacher, providing the
class enrollment reaches a certain marK
by May 2nd.
There is a place in this school for any.
young or old, who do not already belong
to a Bible bchool.
Easter Sunday, the members of this
school will have charge of the evening
service, for which an exellent program
is being prepared.
Call to mind the most delicious corfee
flavor you ever enjoyed, and, then mul
