Heels of
New Rubber
Eminent scientists admit that a person
welshing 150 pounds who walks tbrei
miles a day lilts 1,188,000 pounds.
Where do rubber heels come In?
Doesn't It stand to reason that the heel
ox new rubber Is essential? That It
sheaths your walk through life with com
fort? Bubber heels carry out what nature
Intended.
Experience teaches that heels of new
rubber are economical. That they make
you look energetic and feel young.
There Is only one kind of heels made of
new rubber ''O'SuUivan's." Unless you
order by the name you may get worthless
substitutes that cost you the same as
O'Sullivan's, 60 cents attached.
If a dealer can't supply, send 35 cents

JOHN OBCHAED, jjc
j*j General Secretary for the Annual State jjj
jD Sunday School Convention. jjj
Special to The Journal.
Owatonna, Minn., April 26.The
Minnesota Su'n'day School association
began its forty-seventh annual conven
tion yesterday afternoon, at the Meth
odist church,'with more than 200 dele
gates in attendance. Jeff H. Irish of
Detroit is presiding and W. C. Pearce,
a Chicago specialist, is creating much
enthusiasm. This will be the most
successful convention the organization
has ever held.
At the opening E. J. Krafft of Mi'n
neapolis was chosen secretary and a
committee on nominations was appoint
ed. Stanley B. Eoberts of Minneapo
lis contributed a devotional, "The
Heart of the Child." Discussions fol
lowed several very interesting papers,
including "The Formative Period," by
Mrs. James Gray of Minneapolis "The
Adolescent Period," by Miss Louise A.
Emery of St. Paul "Youn^g People's
Period," by A. A. Benton of Minneapo
lis and "The Adult Period," by W. C.
Pearce, the Chicago specialist.
The session was opened last night
with a song service led by Eev. W. R.
Keesey of Owato'n'na. Rev. R. M.
West, D.D. of St. Paul read a paper on
The Sunday School Idea,'' and the ex
tension of the Sunday school was dis
cussed by Mr. Pearce. An offering
was taken for state work.
Orchard Tells of Progress.
The annual report of John Orchard,
general secretary, shows that the work
has been making greater progress the
last two years than in any years since
its organization, twenty-five years ago.
Thirty-three counties which were not
organized two years ago are now do
ing splendid work. The association has
organized sixty-three counties out of
the eighty-four in the state.
What may be considered the best
proof of the progress the work is mak
ing and of the appreciation of the peo
ple, is the remarkable increase of re
ceipts the last three years. While

only! $1,400 was raised in the entire
state in 1902, nearly $2,600 has been
collected in 1904-5. Only sixteen coun
ties contributed towards the support
of the association in 1901-2, but in the
past "year thirty-four helped financially.
The interest in the work is especially
manifested in the cities of Minneapo
lis and St. Paul, Ramsey and Henne
pin counties. In the year 1902-3 Min
neapolis gave the state association only
$R7S, while 1904-5 will see her with
a list ox nearly $1,000.
St. Paul has also increased her do
nations from $90 in 1902 to nearly
$400 in 1904-5. Thus, there has been
an aggregate state gain of nearly 100
per cent since the convention at Wi
nona in 1902.
Growth of Convention Work.
Tn convention work the growth is
stijl more noticeable. In 1902-3 there
were but sixteen counties that held
annual conventions outside the twin
cities. These gatherings reached an
aggregate of 850 workers, 425 schools
and diiectly touching about 22,000
children.. In 1904-5 forty-eight con
ventions convened, with an aggregate
of 3.200 teachers and officers and touch
ing 80,000 children. To accomplish
these things it was necessary for the
secretary to travel over 14,000 miles,
mail 1,762 letters and postcards, attend
forty eight conventions, organize six
new" counties and prepare 58,000 pieces
of literature, of which 46,000 were sent
out Irom the office.
The State Sunday School association
is interdenominational and internation
al in its work and should not be con
fused with the American Sunday School
union or any other denominational or
ganization. Its purpose is to unite the
Sunday schools of every denomination
into a body in the belief that more
good can lie accomplished if there is
harmonious working between the dif
ferent schools.
Many Pledges for the Work.
The convention secured pledges to
day'of $2{336 from county organiza
tions and individual schools. Tonight
personal pledges will be received. A
good financial condition is assured for
the coming year.
The committee on nominations is
considering a proposed change in the
constitution to make the chairman of
the executive committee the acting
chief official during the year and the
association president the presiding of
ficer at conventions.
