ITS CLOSE, yEsTERDAY--RKPoRT OF THE DAYS PRO-
cHEDINds.
The session of the Institute was resumed yes.
yerday afternoon ST 2 O'Clock, the opening exsr-
cises being conducted By Rev. MIR. Miller, OF Elk
ton, and after the singing OF the beautiful hymn,
Nearer my God to thee" Rev. Geo. A. Latimer
read an able essay upon the methods of study.
ing the Sunday School lessons, advising the
teachers especially to work out as well as in the
class, and to place themselves as nearly as pos
sible upon a level with the ideas of the pupils
whom they were instructing.
The essay was followed by the hymn, thrust
ing Jesus, that is all, after which Mrs. G. A.
Phoebus, of Smyrna, conducted the primary
class which was present at the Institute, through
some very interesting exercises, aud questioned
them pleasantly upon the Sunday School cate
chism, and also lectured for short time.
The Institute again joined in singing and Rev.
j. NJ. Freeman interested tho children with some
exercises on an invisible blackboard, upon which
he was supposed to write and after singing an
other hymn the Institute was formed into u
Model School, the teachers giving their theories
of teaching in short addresses, which the schol-
ars were requested to criticise and hand the crit
icism to Mr. Freeman.
Rev. G. W. Folwell, then read very sensible
essay upon Sunday School sociables. which was
much admired.
The Institute then again Joined in singing,
and the session was closed with the benediction
| by Rev. Jos. +. Smith.
EVENING SESSION.
| The last session was held last evening and by
half past seven o'clock the time for opening,
| the lecture room was crowded. The opening
exercises were conducted by Rev. DR.. Matack,
Of Middletown, and after singing, ''fhe Armoi
of Light" Mr.. Freeman read an essay upon Su-
| perintendents, which was very clear state
| ment of the duties and obligations Of the Su-
perintendent to the school The subject was
handled at considerable length aud with good
| effect
The Institute then joined in singng.'Let your
Light Shine" and Rev j. o. Sypherd read an
essay upon the Teachers Day Work"
| "Hast Thou Cleaned well to-day p was sung
and Mr.. Freeman talked briefly but in an inter-
| esting manner upon Bible customs aud illus
| trahons.
The criticisms by the scholars upon the meth
| DDS OF teaching as explained in the morning ses-
sion were then read, and were, general
thing, pertinent and interesting.
| At the conclusion of the reading, Mr.. Freeman
was compelled to leave with many regrets in or
| der to catch the train for New York, and the
meeting was taken in charge by Rev. Jos. E.
Smith.
The Sunday School love feast was then open
ed and proved to be both profitable and interest
ing.
nThe Sweet BY and BY was sung and the ben
ediction pronounced by Rev. Geo. A. Phnbut
of Smyrna.
One of the interesting features of the evening
session was the presence of a lady of sixty-s
who had never been in bibls class before. The
Institute has proved success in every particu
lar, and has been instrumental in giving grea
impetus to Sunday School work in the confer
euce,
