One Out of Our Sunday-School Class Last Sunday

One Out of Our Sunday-School Class Last Sunday
"One out of our Sunday-school class last Sunday. Was that somebody you? Listen to our pleading: Don't let that happen again! We want every member present every Sunday. A. B. C. No. 25. Copyright, 1912, the Standard Publishing Co., Cincinnati, O."

With an illustration of a kid who looks like a young Alfred E. Neuman, this postcard admonishes its recipient not to be absent from Sunday school. Although its punning statement about "one out" (one kid out of class last Sunday, and one tooth out of young Alfred's mouth) is seemingly humorous, the rest of the message is rather threatening ("Was that somebody you?" and "Don't let that happen again!").

For other don't-forget-to-attend-Sunday-school postcards, see Hello! Who Is This? You're the One We're After and Sorry You Were Sick Last Sunday.
