ALL OVER
Th* Laidlaw Chronicle waa tendered a
unanimous Tote of thanks Sunday by the
250 Christian workers assembled as dele
arates and laborers in the Master's Tineyard
at the first annual ftanday school ooosen-
tion, held in the First Presbyterian church,
this city. The suggestion was made from
the pulpit by Chairman John B. Shipp, of
Prinevllle; and the motion, duly made and
seconded, was ratified with spontaneous
accord by the large audience.
The Tote of thanks was tendered in rec­
ognition of the enterprise and good will
Hhowu by the Chronicle management in
distributing 2 0 0 copies ef this journal
about the church, each copy containing a
program of the day’s proceedings; and also
because the editors had distributed slips
offering to send the paper free to anyone
interested in the convention.
Many of
those who signed the slips becamo sub­
scribers to this newspaper.
