The BENEFITS OF SUNDAY SCHOOL
WORK.-The Philadelphia Record, in
an article on the efficacy of Sunday
schools, says: Whatever individual
opinions may be held with regard to
the early training of youth, it is gener-
ally agreed that the processes of edu-
the plastic brain of child is capable of
retaining an impression, and that first
impressions are likely to be most en-
during. Earliest learned is easiest re-
membered, whether the instruction be
gained at home, in school or on the
streets. Youth cannot be prevented
from studying. Either in wisdom or
through folly, there must be progress
of one kind or another. 1t is the pre-
rogative as it is the duty Of parents to
fix the direction and extent of the in
eVitable daily advances in knowledge
made by their children. They may
neglect or ignore the matter, but edu-
cation for good or for i'll goes on just
the same There is no escaping a uni
versal law, nor can responsibility be
avoided because it is temporarily
evaded. How much misery and crime
result from attempts at such evasion
can never be known. Yet there is
great suggestiveness in a recent state
ment made by high authority in re-
fOrmatory matters, to the effect that
not two in ten of the inmates of prisons
and wOrkhouses have ever seen the in
side Of a Sunday school. Such an an
nOuncement is something more than a
statistical fact it is a weighty and
convincing argument in support Of a
method of education which for various
reasons seems in danger of falling into
neglect"
Smyrna times., 1885-01-28
