(b) Trace connection of Council to International work (i.e., Council,
City Secondary Division Committee, City Secondary Division
Superintendent, County Secondary Division Superintendent, State or
Provincial Secondary Division Committee, State or Provincial Secondary
Division Superintendent, International Secondary Division Committee,
International Secondary Division Superintendent, etc.--this to show them
that they are officially related to a world-wide movement).
(c) Fellowship and "Get Together."
Be sure to have Adult members at this meeting.
_Second Meeting_ (two weeks after first).--
At this meeting discuss:
(a) Importance of class organization--each member urged to get to work
at once in his local school.
(b) Age limit of classes now in the organization.
(c) Outline possibilities of Council for promotion and all-round
physical, mental, social and spiritual activities of teen age fellows of
the Sunday schools of the city.
(d) Discuss the idea of the census survey.
These two meetings will pave the way for the third and following
meetings. Don't meet simply for the sake of holding a meeting. Let your
fellows feel that when a call to meeting is received it is important.
_Third and Subsequent Meetings_
1. Lay your plans carefully for the census-taking, then complete the job
quickly.
2. Analyze the cards and distribute to the organized classes. Their work
then begins. Encourage regular reports on the work of the classes at
each meeting of the Council, the school representatives reporting.
3. Plan for the execution of the Missionary, Purity and Temperance
Programs.
4. Extend the Council's field until it covers the common physical,
social, mental and spiritual activities of the community teen age boys.
5. Plan for regular Conference or Banquet Programs.
6. Ultimately the entire common Sunday school athletic and social life
of the community would center in the Inter-Sunday School Council.
_Meeting of Superintendents_
It is suggested that at this juncture a meeting of Sunday school
Superintendents be called for the purpose of thoroughly acquainting them
with the plans of the Council. This will secure the cooperation of the
Superintendents, which is most essential. The effort to get the
Superintendents behind the work will be more successful if the city be
divided into sections and a Superintendents' meeting be held in each
section. These meetings can be made very helpful.
