Necessity »f a field Werker. It is thought by those interested in the Sunday school cause in Pike county that the efforts put ft>. ‘h in the past for increasing the number of Sunday schools in the county and gathering-the children in, have not- accomplished a tithe of what should have been done, tbe showing although better than last year is vet a- sad one for our county. It is now thought that the only effective plan Is to place a field worker in the county who will agree to give his whole time to this work. Schools will be organized where possible and where this cannot be done at onee it is hoped the effectiveness of the home class department ; will be thoroughly tested. Not a section of the county should he neglected. Christian people and all those in favor of good morals, now is the time when you can unite work for the good of your own county. It will cost something to do this work, but a good faithful worker will earn all he receives and the givers will be helping to lay a good foundation for future generations. Illinois has made great advance in ths number of sehools organized and the number of children brought into these schools, but this is not surprising when we take into consideration the fact that the state association pays the salaries of six field workers for the state at large and several counties in the state employ their own bounty workers besides. Will not those who have the best interests of Pike county at heart do their part to get the work well started in our county. A Sunday School Woaxix. The Here Latirippe Core.
