.It f I I New Sunday School Class Planned By Local Young Men f ;-f An entirely new experiment tn Sunil day school classes was announced by Presbyterian church officials today. The new class will be for young men between the ages of 20 and 35 years of age. The class will be in Charge of C D. Teeple. The new class, which will hold its first meeting Sunday morning, December 1 at 9:15 o’clock, will immediately plan a constructive seven-day-a-week program. While the new class will have weekly Bible lessons, the other six days of the week will be devoted to civic interests. Several programs have been tentatively outlined by members of the new class and they include all types of charity, caring for the poor, and assisting other organizations in their drives for charitable and benevolent funds. Plans for the new class sponsoring a local Boy Scout troop also have been discussed, and the matter will be taken up at the first meeting. The idea for the new orgnaization grew out of the desire of local Presbyterian church officials to create interest among the young men of the Presbyterian church in Sunday school, and also to draw their influence into church work. It is thought that about 15 or 20 young Presbyterian business men and young men not affiliated with any church will attend the first meeting a week from Sunday. o Catholic Hospital Assn.
