Plans will be worked out by which the Secretary of Stewardship in each Synod will know the men who have consented to serve, and he will make all assignments. It is the purpose of this Movement to enlist every avail able worker in our Church for the three Sundays prior to the Every Member Canvass. There are about 200 men available, and if every one consents to serve we will reach at least 600 churches in our Assembly through their service. Since the Every-Member Canvass profits alT causes, each man will charge his trav eling expenses to the agency for which he works. We have adopted a plan to have a service in every church in the Assem bly on the first three Sundays of March, regardless or' how small the church is, or how remote, or when it has stated services. A personal letter is being sent to every man who belongs to one of tho above classes, but should any one be omitted, let him regard this as a re quest, on the part of the Assembly'3 Stewardship Committee, to give his time. Let us make this the most effective and far-reaching effort for the Every Member Canvass that our Church has ever made. The Assembly's Stewardship Commit tee. M. E. Melvin, General Secretary. BANNER WINNEifS FOR 1922. R. E. Magill, Secretary. The contest for the Presbyterial Banner, awarded for the largest offer ing per member for Sunday-school Extension, developed a keen spirit of friendly, rivalry and resulted in a greatly enlarged interest in the work of Sunday-school Extension. The reports indicate that there was an increase in the number of schools observing Rally Day, that a notable gain in enrollment was made, that plans were outlined for a better typo of work for the coming year, and that the ofTering was larger than ever be fore. . A spirit of sacrificial giving was shown which indicates that our Sun day-school membership appreciate their previligee and that they wish to make similar blessings possible for the great multitude of spiriuality des titute young people in the South. .While only one school in a Presby tery would win a banner all the con testants have a rich reward in the con sciousness that they had a part in sending the Gospel messu:^u those who need it most. Our congratulations to the success ful schools and our sincere thanks to all who had a part in the most suc cessful Rally Day observance in the history of our Church. Banner Sunday Schools for 11)22.
