THE SUNDAY SCHOOL
Taken as Text by the Williamsburg
U. B. Pastor Yesterday Morning.
GOOD SERMON BY A KENTUCKIAN.
An Eminent Chicago Divine breaches to
Two Church Audiences.
OTHER PULPIT TOPICS OF YESTERDAY

Yesterday morning the pastor of the
United Brethren Church, Rev. Laurence
Keister, spoke on 'The Sunday School. !"
He emphasized its Importance in connec-
tion with the work of the church. The
origin and growth of the institution were
traced historically. 1t proposes as we have
it now to teach moral and religious truth
especially and needs teachers qualified by
special preparation for this work. Those
who should attend the Sunday shool are not
alone the children, but the young men and
women who may think they have outgrown
it. But we never outgrow the Sunday
school, as we never outgrow the Bible nor
our duty as Christians. Hence old and
young and middle-aged have their place and
work in the Sunday school, which is a most
fruitful field of labor for the Christian.
The speaker then went on to tell of the
history of the Sunday school all over the
civilized world. He showed how it had
progressed from the smallest beginnings,
and that it had great and good effect in
promoting the growth of the Christian
Church He was particularly pleased with
Sunday school work in and about Pittsburg.
He referred to the fact that many of the
prominent men in the business and public
official world of this part of the country
were Sunday school teachers, and thought
that their work during the week was done
all the better on account of the way they
spend their Sundays. He concluded by
again exhorting everybody, old and young,
to join in Sunday school work, either SIS
teacher or scholar, and promised them re-
yard ward even ,s in this world provided they fol-

A TALK ON CONFINEMENT.
The Subject of Rev. C. E. Locke's Second
Sermon of the Summer Series.

The Subject of Rev. c. E. Locke's Second
Sermon of the Summer Series.
The Smithfeld Street Methodist Epis-
copal Church was crowded last evening,
aisles and gallery being filled with most
attentive audience. The pastor, Rev.
Charles Edward Locke, preached the second
of series of short summer evening sermons
on "Contentment," announcing as his text,
81 have learned in whatsoever state am
Herewith to be content" Phil. iv., IL.
He said: eve have discovered the tabled
fountain whose sparkling waters insure
eternal youth and beauty. 1t springs forth
from beneath the rocks of eternal truth, and,
like the river Jordan, has its source at the
base of Mount Hermon.
"Let us strive to be contented with the
work we have in hand. We must not con-
found notoriety with success. Notoriety is
cheap, but success can only be won BY ap-
plication and devotion. Publicity must not
be mistaken for success. AS the lighthouse
depends for its stability upon the grip of
the granite rock beneath the water, so the
foundations of society, church and state are
built into the integrity and faithfulness of
those whose names are never spoken in public
circles. "We must learn to be contented
as our plans unfold Time is an
important factor in development. God
has place for each of US, but we often miss
it by being in hurry. 1t is not important
how many talents we possess, but how we'll
we use them. Men classify according to
numbers, but God according to quality.
Our talents properly exercised will double
themselves. God gives men intellects.
Man is to be thinker. To be contented
we must use our heads and devote our lives
to working out conviction. then we will
have character and achievement.
