AT THE SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION
An Interesting Session on Monday

Recommended.

a large audience was in attendance at
the Assembly Hall on Monday evening.
to participate in the interesting pro-
cee1ings OF the monthly Union meeting.
After music by the Union Brass Band,
the Mill Greek Ward choir sang; fol-
lowed with prayer by Jens Hansen, and
singing again by the Mill Creek choir.
The roll was then called. Professor
| Karl g. Maeser delivered an address TO
Sabbath School teachers. The large
audience present was an indication of
the great interest felt in the Sunday
School movement. Commenting upOn
the present excellent organization OF the
Union, he yet realized it to be in
sufficient, when considering the great
responsibility that rested upon the fu-
ture OF the rising generation. Faithful
ness OF parents would not directly
benefit these children, as instance the
entlclng away of some young people
from the faith of their fathers.
The future of our youth should
be placed secure. When we con
template the muititudes of children
that assemble each Sabbath in the Sun
day schools, and consider the pains that
are being taken, it seems that the mani
TEST results are not commensurate with
the pains taken. 1 take every oppor-
tunity to remind my fellow teachers of
that golden rule; that teacher can
never impart that which he has not
himself. A lack of punctuality OF at
tendance, or nOn-attendance becomes a
failure to impart the law of regularity

tain the confidence of the children, but
become exempiars and expOunders of
the glorious faith we believe in. For
