Exercises of the Primary Work. The
speaker held that more care should be
used in the transfer of pupils from the
primary to the Bible departments.
Primary Teaching in the Light of the
New Education was the subject of an
excellent paper by Mrs. Brodbeck of Los

farmer who cuts hay with hoe. This
method was that followed by the Divine
Teacher, and has always proved most
successful.

verified by comparison with the reports
quoted. In all it was a striking feature
