Cabarrus county again has been! graded perfect by the State Sunday j School Association and for this excel-! lence has been awarded a “Blue Rib bon.” Two other counties in the State, Rowan and Davie, also were swarded ribbons. Some of the most interesting facts s about the work of the State Sunday School Association nre contained m a recent report sent out by D. W Sims, general superintendent.

The attendance records show that at these conventions'there were 400 pastors. 769 superintendents, and 3,- TDO teachers. The estimated «total at tendance was 24.350. people, or aa average of 243 at each of these one hundred County Conventions. Four hundred seventy-four town ship conventions and institutes were reported held during the year. This does not represent the total' number of township meetings, as the reports from several counties were not com plete. The number reported is an increase of ltd) over the number held last year. In the 82 township meet ings attended by the State workers 689 Sunday Schools were represent ed by 9,001 people, among whom were 232 pastors. 359 superintendents and 1,898 teachers. In the one hundred county conven tions and eighty-two township meet ings attended by the state workers there was a total of 2,280 Sunday Schools represented by 641 pastors. 1,128 superintendents, and 5.680 teachers. The total estimated attend ance at these meetings was 33,351 people. Twenty-four counties won places on the honor roll for covering pointa of the “county aims," as follows: Cabarrus.

The free circulating library is be ing used extensively by Sunday school 1 workers throughout the State, many of the books being read from five to eight times during the year. The uurnber of volumes in the library is now more than one thousand. The wonderful growth of the work within the past five and a half years— from 9 organized counties in 1920 to 100: from six County Conventions in 1920 to 100: from 22 township meet ings in 1920 to 474: from 55 County and Township officers to 1599; from 1 employed worker to 5; from a ques tion as to whether this type of work was needed to a conviction in the: minds and hearts of thousands of the leaders that the North Carolina Sun day School Association is filling an important place and meeting a real need not otherwise being met in «he development o» the Sunday School cause in the State.
