How to Get the Most Out of the Sunday day School Hour. ll vote of the Sunelny school con- venlton recently helel ill Broken lIow It was requested thntthe followln papcr read by Prof. COfllelt he pllbllsheel 'rhe aim of thc Sunda.r school is threefold the promotion of spiritual growth among thosc who love God the communication tion of truth to the ignorant an young and thc carrying of the gospel to regions heyong the present reach of the church.

Upon the Sunday school su- pcrintcndcnt and his tcachcr de- pcnds the succe of thc Sunday school. A true supcrintendent is in charge of his school days of the week. He has it on his mind and consciencc cont1l1u- i ay. He has it upon his heart in his place of secret pray'r at his work and in his drcams. lIe is praying planning and practic- ing.

He is a man whom every body respects can obtain order by a few gentle words has everv teacher obeying his Wi and loscs not a single moment during- the precious hour of the Sunday school. He does not organizc his Sunday school to death but he chooses a plan and with a fixcd p-urpose aims at some deHn- ate resu.lt which he accomplishes. Our true superintendcnt is a man ot progress. He believcs there is always room for him to advance hc attends convcntions subscribes for numerous religious ous papers which he studics and is always ready to listcn to another's experience with a view to improving his own school. Yet he is not a fanatic he does not accept every new theory docs not change thc old established lished order cxcept for good rcasons bu is always conscrva- ti active and en usiastic.

He secures for his teachers onli those who are devotcd Chris- tians. He is al ways ready to confcr with his teachcrs encouraging couraging the discouraged and congratulating the successful. 1'0 gct the most out of thc Sunday school hour evcry tcach- er must bc a religious person. He must helieve in God with all his heart he is neither weakly credulous 1101' skeptical. He hatcs sin and loves righteous- I ness.

His example is right for bc knows what is not well for his pupils is not bccoming in I himself. 'rhe good Sunday school tcacher knows that therc i nothing that pleases Satan more than to get an un-holy or non- praying person to teach a Sun- da school class. Such teachcrs are but eating cancer at the vitals of Christianity. 'I'hc good Sunda school tcachcr is not a bigot. He is glad to stand side by side with other denominations in union mcetings and sing and 1 pray He saY5 a word that would lead a pupil to suppose he did not have faith in all who lovc God rcgardless of their church preference.

He is found among the old recciving counsel and among thc young giving. Hc carrics a notc book contain- ing the lesson. He takes advantage vantage of his spare moments through the week and jots down his random thoughts on the lesson and ponders thcm until he has such a "head" of knowledge that his words arc inspiring. A teacher will dcvelop bis class in proportion to the cnthusiasm tact and love givcn to his class. hc teacher of our public schools must meet the requirements of the law.

Before bp.coming a Sunday school teacher our hearts should pass satsfactorily befor God the examination of the 'I'cn Commandments. Such a teacher does much toward promoting unity in the church which in turn promotes spiritual grlJwth bible study and missionary zeal- the three aims of the Sundav school. Our Sunday schools arc suffer- ing for the want of teachers endowed dewed with the power of God. Before we can successfully teach a class so that evcry heart will bc light and they will smile with jO.r while their souls are drink1l1g at the fountain which 110ws from Heaven-I say before we can teach the power of Go we must IP quit out committing sin and our a hearts must be made pure. Where can we preparc ourb selves for Sunday school teacha ing Upon our knces.

How 1 By giving ourselves entirely to God and letting him rule in our hearts. When we have accome' I plished this we are ready to begin the prcparation If the Sunday school lesson. When a tcacher has thus harmonized himself with God he will think of one of his students and pray their salva.tion c'cndny and on Sunday morning hew will appcar bcfore his class with 'a countcn- ance illuminated with the spirit of Jesus so decply that it is caught by thc class and the wholc atmosphere is the spirit of God. As much as the school dcpends the teacher so much does in the teachcr depend upon his aims. He may aim at cntertaining his pupils plcasiug I the fane- quicting thc COI1- scicnce cxciting humor kindling ling and gratifying curiosity and ng is precious aIf hour intended for class recitation to parl01' chat and funny storics or He may aim at winning the personal regard of his pupils- thcir lovc and adnllrahon-he may aim at mpldug Ius pupil "a good scholar" having him rccite titlcs golden texts commit cat.

echisms or Hc ma aim at church training ing thc pupil to ap- preciatc and bcyond all others his own church but therc arc higher aims than all these the highest possible aims-con- vcrsion spintual culture and formation of good charactcr. On1)- with thcse grcat aims will the Sunday school tcachcr succeed. Teacher does your SU1 day school class look at yoU as a Jolly compani with wh they can have a pack of fun or as a tcnder friend with a heart madc purc by the blood of Jesus Do the really know that you love them Have they enough conJidence in your rcligion to follow whcrc YOlt lead them. Have you so prc- scnted 'oursclf to them that you can lead them to the aBar of God and there upon your knees ir side help them wcep away the last dark clouds of sin A teacher who is teaching for eternity asks himsclf thesc qucs. tlons.

lIe knows that God has made every soul natu.rally to hc I longing for knowledge. If you do not fecd thcm on the bread of I Heaven thcy will gloat 011 the bread of wicicdness. 'l'hc stud- nt will as a rulc eagerl grasp whatevcr you givc him but he is too cunning to receivc lI1ything which his tcachcr him- dr docs not posscss. Beforc we can tcach Jesus and Him on the cross of Calvary pouring u.tt f-lis precious blood for our atonc- ncnt we must he washed in that Jlood and know the love and ewer that scnt Him. I have no certain form vhich a Sunday school should be onducted other than thc obser- lance of the gcncral rules of edagogy 'l'is said "Ordcr is leavcn's first law" 50 wc must lave our school properly c1assi- ied with the ofiicers and teach- rs prompt and rcgular in attcnd- mce.

Much time is often lost having tardy or abscnt om- crs and teachcrs. As soon as bell rings for thc teacher to akc charge the class the 'lass treasurcr should take th ollection and get it rcady for he Sunday school treasurer 'Ihile the class sccretary rcords he attendance giving thc eacher a few minutes to enquire absent mcmbcrs and wel- omc new ones. 'l'hen in a min- Ite the class is scttled down and las no interruptions. 'rile tcach- should losc no timc in brin ng beforc the class a remindcr the last lesson and Icading to he present one. His thorough Ircparation enables him to pre- ent this with so much en- husiasm that the pupils Jmow othing of what is goin on utside of his own' class He a omplctes the lesson in time to Illroduce such featurcs of the ext lcsson as will arous in'estl 'ation.

Special subjccts may bc ssigned for prcparation. Insist upon outsidc prepar- tion. Expect it bc disappoined you do not get it and pleasecl 'h the class have a well pre- ared lesson. 'rhrow form asides much as possible and get to le heart of Jour stulcnts. relieve the method used to teach 21 class should dcpend upon thc Itcl1ectual and spiritual ition of the class and the con-I mality of the teacher.

HowB ver I thoroughly believe inI f1 sing some modern Cass organiz- ation method and thc teacher I should choosc thc most adapted to himsclf and clasS. Morc depends uP.on quality uf rcsults than As to how much talldng should bc donc by thc tcacher hc alonc knows bcst but thin1c twice lest you talk too much at lcast the tclch- cr should not tcll the student what he has had a chancc to lcarn for himsclf. Do not burdcn your studcnts by hashing' over the idcntical cxplanations in the Sund ay School Quarter- lics but bc so full of the Ics you can tactfullbl' ng it to the class in a ncw and i terestillg manner. Ncver force studcnts to say something goo I whcn they do not fecI likc it. bul hri ig the spirit of Jcsus to thcm utll all henecd is a ch ance to cxpress thc dccp joy of their souls.

Whcn the thirty minutes allotted to the class recitation is up stop tcaching at once and give hecd to the lcsson rcview and Sunday school rcport. Be- licving that wc cannot in one hour on Sabbath do the whole work of instruction dCl11ancled of the Sunda school a oed paper should supplcmcnt a gOOlllcsson. cligious books should he on hand for cverr pupil. A good library is as 1111portant a factor in character forming' as thc Sunday day school lcsson and should havc as important a placc. 'l'hc Sunday school should in- crcase th power of thc pulpit.

I think pcrlmps not cnough cn- couragement is givcn in thh cla.r to thc Sunday school pupils to attcnd thc church scrviccs. Most children scamper oiT home at thc end of thc Sunday school hour without a thought of attending tending thc church sen' ice. 'l'his is wrong. If he docs not form the habit of church attendance ance while young it will bc hard to form whcn he grows older. Parcnts and teachcrs do wrol1g in excusing this on tht grouud of their inability to understand the se1'l11on.

Whcn will tlICbc ahle to understand pray if they ne'ler lr A child has a grcat Ileal more undcrstanding than he is usually givcn credit for. With this cnd in view thc Sunlay ci-ool should do morc to en- ourage church attcndance. 1-4ct lhc supcrintcndent announce thc Ircach i ng scrv ice call for a lJUblic rccitation of the last tcxt IJrcached on and tcach thc school lo pray for the pastor. With all of its duties cares 1nd anxietics thc Sunday school .5 not a burdcn but a blessed vilege. It should be the Jest hour in God's holy dny for 'oung and old.

What is the of putting our minds and into our SundaJ school Nork God lmows this best. Vhen we shall have finished our and God has given us a Jlace among his angels whcn wean witncss the gathering 111 of goldcn sheavcs of thc scccI wc sowcd on carth as we ook down through the ages and thc coming of those the influence of our lives bringing hOl11c to sing with us he sweet mclodies of the soul hcn wc shalllmow enl in part Jut not until Time hcrc shall vanished and the world hall havc yiclded up her living md those wc have hclpcd are rathered around us In Glory not 11tH then will wc know fully he valuc of our prcscnt Sunday chool hour.
