j 1,500 DELEGATES LEAVE FOR TOKIO S. S. CONVENTION

NEW YORK, Aug. 17. Now on their way to Tokio, Japan, are 1,500 men end women who lead the world in the teaching of the English Bible to boys and girls chiefly through Sunday schools. Besides these delegates there are many visitors, so that berths on steamships sailing for the far east are filled to the limits. Conventions like the one to be held in Tokio, beginning October 5, are held each decade, sometimes in Europe, sometimes in the United States. This one in Tokio was delayed several years owing to the world war. Reasons for holding conventions in distant parts of the world are to stir up interst and also to make workers and teachers exert themselves. Japanese of rank, in wealth, and I olitical positions, welcome the convention to their country. Large numbers of delegates are to be entertained as guests in private Japanese homes. A great convention hall has been erected opposite the railroad station. Japanese newspapers plan to chronic le convention work. Christianity in Japan is not confined, as in some missionary countries, to the poor. It has gained a foothold among the socially great. 1,000 From United States. The 1,500 delegates will be: From the United States, about 1,000, others from different parts of the world. There are 15,000,000 people in American Sunday schools, and 5,000,000 in schools in other countries, almost all of them in England and Scotland. Definite figures are not available. The world war injured Sunday school attendance. Some say 7,500,000 are in schools outside of the United States. The convention at Tokio is to be far more than a meeting of delegates in conference for a few days. Prominent leaders are in charge of all delegates on respective ships, and on a few ships the entire passenger list of the voyage Is bound for Tokio and its convention. Under direction of this leader each ship, during its voyage, carries a Sunday school convention. During the balance of August and throughout all of September floating conventions on the Pacific, on the China pea, even on the Indian ocean, hot as it Is at this season, will study the Bible and study methods of teaching It. More than that, both before and after the Tokio meeting .deputations of American and British Bible experts will visit, the Philippines, Australia, New Zealand. South Africa, Korea, China, India. Egypt and many Pacific Inlands to conduct conventions. Studies for Different Years. National and international Sunday pchool associations are organized, and I here is a committee which selects F.ible lessons to be studied during different years, but the present plans are in charge of a world Sundav school p--ncition. This agency does far pmre than just hold conventions, great a-, its conventions are. It employs rdvance agents and sends them all over the world. Just now into South -merica. ino Mexico and Cuba, and throughout develoning Africa agents pre eoi to establish Sunday school work. Thev are coing into Europe to heln rebuild conditions, and the United States is the prime mover and supporter In all. r 1 l ouDurDan WINCHESTER. Ind.
