lnteresteing Contest at Methodist
Sunday School
Although not altogether a new idea,
the Trip to Jerusalem contest at the
Methodist Sunday school bids fair to
stimulate interest well worth while.
A prize is offered the class which
succeeds in makiiig the quickest trip;
mileage being counted according to
per centage of attendance, studied
lessons, offering, etc. A study of the
standing of the contestants shows the
Philathea and Mrs. White’s class tak-
ing the air route with 1630 miles cred-
it to each. The next five seem to be
hitting on all six, as they have over
a thousand miles each. The rest
seem to be having a little trouble in
land travel but may prove the best
navigators when the sea is reached.
The detailed standing to date is as
follows:
Mrs. White’s class, 1630 miles;
Philathto, 1630; Miss Murray, 1265;
W. C. Gay, 1235; Miss Wilhoit, 1188;
Ovtrail Bible Class, 1150; M. W.
Weatherred, 1000; Miss Henderson,
970; Miss Hubert, 860; Mrs. Walker,
755; Mr. Critz, 680; Dr. Pope 665;
Mrs. Martin 540.
