Dear Mre Allen: —
Je are combininge,two conferences in one and holding it at Emporia

on December 6) and 7. Our Conference Committee was unanimous E tk
in asking that invite you to be the speaker for the Saturday ——"~

night banquet. The theme of our conference is to be "Things That

Matter Most," and we should like to have you speak on the subject

of clean living or keeping fit. There should be three hundred or

three hundred and fifty boys at this conference since we are com-~

bining the two meetings.

I remember with pleasure the fine contribution you made last year
at Marysville and so does the rest of our committee because they
were anxious to have you for a speaker.

Sincerely yours,

2o :
Leo Le Gessell
Program Secretary
