The Cass County Sunday School
Association held its annual conven
tion at Weeping Water, May 20 and

promoting the Sunday school 'work
in Cass county. Delegates to the
number of 40 were present and about
15 schools were represented. Owing
to the busy season a great many
schools were unable to send dele
gates. One very interesting feature
of the convention was the address

Iowa, Ass't Sup't. of the A. S. S. U
A missionary will soon be in the
the held to canvass the county and
organize Sunday schools.
