DEAR EDITOR: Your valuable pa
pet i! great impetus to your already
enterprising people. The propelling
power Of the age is education, and
the most potent means of education
is the press. How important it is
that these engines Of thought be
freighted with the most correct prin-
ciples, and in whatsoever home they
may be borne, they may teach true
wisdom and knowledge. The grand
end Of life should be to do good.
This is the only field not wholly oc-
cupied." l have been assigned a
a duty by the State Sunday School
Association, and unless I am aided
by your paper and the good people
Of Sampson I shall certeinly fail to
accomplish the ends it desires.
This great INSTRUMENTATION
Sunday School orga citation thinks
that it would be beneficial to your
county to join this general move
ment, the object of which is to have
an organized Sunday School in the
reach of every child in the State;
aid further, by house to house WISH
tations, induce them to attend these
schools. Tie objects are grand, the
purposes are noble. 1t remains to
be seen whether these objects and
| purposes are realized. What has
beed done In the last four years
seems to point in that direction with
encouragement. Your county should
be in line with this great movement
TO help bring in the 400, 200 children
of North Carolina that are yet out
side the Sunday School.
! ] am of the opinion that there is
40 work, in christian line, except
the Gospel, in which christian man
and woman can be engaged, that
will be fought with more glorious
results than that Of the Sunday
! School. But some one is ready 10
say, that through the denominations
alone this work shoul be done. Ny
/ Orc Their, this is all right, let every
denomination put forth its most
earnest effort il this direction. The
! object Of the Association is not TO
. break down, but to build up denom-
national schools. 1t proposes to i'll
tere5i the people in this grand WORT,
by its conventions and educate The
people TO The necessity of having
their children in the Sunday School
that they may early imbibe the pure
principles of religion and become
honest, sober and useful citizens
when they arrive at the years 81
| manhood and Womanhood.
| When we have so arrayed these
alien forces to Ell list in the Sunda.
| School army they will be sure Il
denomination.
Says brother John A. Broadus, d
D.: One Of the characteristics o
our age is that We are occupied will
the idea OF organized christian worl
as the world never was before, ant
another characteristic is that chris
tians of different denominations ar,
combining in organized work rs the.
never did before.'
And again he says: but 1 an
sure when we heartily work in al
the matters in which we do SD lik
, to work together. wnen we toucl
elbows in our common march, whe
we feel the thrill of kindred heart
!, as we march together we learn t
E love each other as brethren
I earnestly request the following
!, persons, and as many others as ca
and have a desire to see the Suuda
t School cause prosper, to meet in th
courthouse in Clinton on the 15t
fof August at O'Clock p. M, for ii
