SOUTHWESTERN UNION RECORD
ENID, PERKINS AND POND
‘CREEK
It was my privilege to visit the Enid
church school and church during the last
few days of January. Theschool there
is full to capacity, three seats having
been added to accommodate the last
three students who have just joined. In
fact, the school room is too crowded to
do the bést work, but Miss Cornish is
overcoming the difficulty well and is con-
ducting a good school. All the students
and patrons are well pleased and stand-
ing by their school. Several new addi-
tions of equipment have been added so
that now their school is well past the
“C’’ rating. The church showed their
loyal spirit to the church school work
last Sabbath when they took up an ele-
mentary school offering to the amount
of $40,00 which puts Enid a little over
their quota of twenty-five cents per
member,
One day was spent out at Pond Creek
where Miss Clara Johnson is teaching a
home school for Brother W. D. Gurney.
This school is also getting along well.
Miss Johnson is putting her best into the
school and the Lord is blessing her ef-
forts. Brother Gurney is elder of the
Enid church and is too far out to send
to the church school, but he is setting a
laudable example to our isolated parents
who have children to educate.
The last two days of the month were
spent with Mr. Harry Craig who is
teaching a very unique church school at
Perkins. Brother Craig has fourteen
students, only two of which are girls
and these two are in the eighth grade,
so next year when about three other
boys start he will have fifteen boys and
no girls, but let me tell you they are
strong-hearted Christian boys and we
can expect to see some of these boys
carrying the message in some of the hard
places of the earth soon, for Brother
Craig, by the help and co-operation of
the parents is following the plan of God
in moulding of the characters of these
youths. By the addition of a little more
equipment they expect to have ‘‘C”
rating. K. L. Gant

BINGER CHURCH SCHOOL
I thought my visit to Perkins last
week took the lead for the number of
boys, but lfind since visiting Miss Will's
school at Binger that she has thirteen
boys and only two girls in the third
grade. It made me happy to see every
one stand when the call was made for
those to stand who wanted to dedicate
their lives to the finishing. of the work.
PAGE FIVE .
Let us pray that many young men may
be raised up out of our church schools
to be ministers of God. Although the
cotton picking has hindered the work at
Binger, the young people are making
splendid progress in their studies, and
I am quite sure that if the boys contin-
ue to put their best into their work
that the school will come up to a ““C’’- -
rating before the close of the year.
Miss Will is fitting into the work nicely
and is doing a real spiritual work. Let
us all pray for our church schools and
our church school teachers.
