Some were fully uniformed in khaki; some had pieced out their uniforms with part of their civilian dress. Some were wearing the clothes which the> had brought from home, and many were in 'fatigue uniform" (blus over als). ' "Two lieutenants, one a Presbyte i rian minister, were appointed to I serve as secretaries. They found I that of the 274 in attendance, forty • six were Endeavorers i.nd seventeen | belonged to denominational societies, j What a long service! Shackley, ordi j narily a fine chorus leader, was at ' his best. 'Shak' was once down and I out, but now he is up and in. And i he had great Instrumental support, i Gross played the piano like he played it for years with one of the j Lvnian Howe companies. And Fretz (the fellow that put the 'i' out of i Fritz) certainly played the violin skillfully. Fretz is fighting the doc- I tcrs for a chance to light the Kaiser, iin spite of a bad heart. We had a ' great choir and every fellow was a | member of It. 1 "As vet we have no membership roll, but will have. We knew the ' names of few. We called the roll alphabetically. When :h lieutenants 1 made their reports it was found that i seven had quoted Scripture refer ' ences. twenty-nine had made ' speeches and twenty-one had offered ; prayer. And everything was so tine j that we thought our wrist watches 1 were all mistaken when they said ! our meeting had been two hours I long."

NEW SCHOLAR DAY TOMORROW Methodist Sunday Schools Planning a 15 I'er Cent Increase by May 5 The first high point in the pro gram of the Sunday school drive t'or this city and vicinity in the Meth odist Sunday schools—the survey— has about been completed by all the schools, it has revealed the fact that there are over 1,000 persons who look to Methodism for Jesus Christ but eirc not enlisted in either the church or Sunday schoor. It also shows that there are more than 1.100 enrolled in the schools now above eight years of age who are not mem bers of the church. The critical analysis of the schools themselves in their relation to mod ern standards of efficiency shows up well. Some of the schools show a higher per cent of efficiency. Sun day promises to be a big day. It will be "New Scholars Day." The drive is to be made upon the con stituency now discovered. Every class will go after the persons whose names have been handed to them as. prospects. Fifteen per cent, increase in enrollment is the goal by May 5. Classes will organize to go after the new scholars as well as line up delinquents. New departments will be started. The school will be group ed according to modern divisions. The second point in the program— organization according to modern standards, will be pushed every where. This will result in every school adopting the departmental method of assembly and service in so far as it is practical because of lo cal equipment. The Rev. J. V.
