This well-worn copy of “So you’re the secretary of the Sabbath School” by Emma Elizabeth Howell offers a glimpse into the religious education practices of early 20th century America. Published in 1941, this instructional guide was likely a valuable resource for Sabbath School secretaries tasked with maintaining records and administrative duties for their church’s weekly Bible study and religious education program.
While the book’s exterior shows signs of heavy use, with a damaged spine and missing dust jacket, the interior pages remain largely clean and unmarked, a testament to its role as a working reference manual. Collectors of vintage religious texts or those interested in the history of Protestant Christian education in America will appreciate this survivor from a bygone era. Despite its worn condition, this copy retains an authenticity that speaks to its practical application in countless Sabbath School classrooms across the nation.
