Description

Sunday School Picnic June 11, 1914
Members of the M. E Sunday school and their friends to the number of nearly one hundred enjoyed a days outing and picnic yesterday in the Mulvane grove across the road from the old Du Clause place west of Rossville. Two hay racks and the autos of G.E. Gresser, Charles Fritz, Dr. Pratt and Morris Bond conveyed the crowd to the grove. Plenty of swings, games and refreshments were provided and the old folks who attended were feeling as happy and contented on the return as were the children. The day was so pleasantly spent that the Methodist people plan to have another outing some time next month.

September 2, 1914 Last Sunday closed the contest between two teams in the Methodist Sunday school, resulting in a victory for the "Blue" team under command of Dave Yocum. The other team, the "Reds" was captained by Miss Nona VanVleck. The contest has been going on for several months and the attendance at Sunday school and church has made a wonderful growth under the stimulous of the rivalry between the contestants. Last Sunday being the close drew the largest attendance when 140 people went to Sunday school. The losers are to entertain the winners soon with a spread of some kind.
