WELCOME TO THE CONVENTION
Blair Owaaly Saaday School Warkara
Mow IB IbbiIib
Ai tbe Balletin reacbers its
readers this week, the annual convention of tbe Blair County Sun*
day School Association will be in
full swing at tbe Methodist Epis-
coprl church. -The local committee on arrangements worked for a
namber of weeks preparing for
tbe coming ot theee visitors in
our midst. It is hoped that the
citizeos and churches off the community are doing their hoot to
ibow a real welcome to tbe delegates and tbat tbey will go away
feeling that Bellwood bos no less
of its enterprising spirit aod cordiality than hoi been known ia
otber days.
The Christian flags oo the side
walks mske a beautiful display
aod tbe committee is indebted to
the Clearfield Chamber of Commerce for a loan of tbem*. Several
ot onr homes hava been opened to
entertain delegates overnight and
many other features showing a
fine spirit oi .Bellwood's people
bave been manifest. However,
there is something we oaa all do
yet. That is to give a friendly
nod and greeting to these strangers as we meet them oo oor streets.
Rnde stares and indifferent
glances leave a bad taste with
strangers wben visiting a community like Bellwood. Another
thing we can do is to attend the
sessions of the convention and
mingle witb oor visitors. They
have travqjod distances ood made
3i*-iiU-jii-^
a great cease, vib.: that of Christian character buildiog. AH ot us
should be interested in such an
enterprise. Let ns hear tbe floe
addresses and make these inspiring moments a means oot only of
helping the delegates with tbeir
back-home problems, bnt also a
means ot helping make Bellwood
a better oommnnity. Hundreds
of Bellwood people should be in
attendance upon these meetings
which are free to the pubhe. Tbe
evening meetiog witb speakers of
note in state-wide Sunday school
work will be especially interesting
and popular.
Lastly, we can not think tbat
tbe Sunday achool workers and
teachers of Bellwood, considerably
ovet 150 of thorn io nnmoer, will
tail to take advantage ot this
wonderial opportunity of securing
aid io their own work. Saob an
opportunity is not laid on one's
own doorstep very frequently.
Tbe Bellwood Sunday schools
oot to leap forward to greater and
more effective work because of
tbe presence of so strong a force
ot Sunday school worker*/ from
over, the county In oar midst, and
tbe presentation of such a splendid program.
—Tbe Methodist Episcopal
Woman's Home Missionary
society Monday night elected
officers at its meeting in the
oburch as follows: President, Mrs.
F. D. Gee*; vice presidents, first,
