SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION.

The annual convention OF the Sunday
School workers of Audubon county is
history. The lukewarmness and indif-
ference of some could not prevent its
resurrection. The republican county
convention, itself powerful sssimilant.
could not absorb it's first session or
dampen the ardor of it's delegates. The
rain of Friday could not wash it away
or check its enthusiasm. It's work
goes on.
The opening session Thursday after
noon was surprisingly well attended.
Delegates from the outside schools came
early and to stay. The opening praise
service led by w. NJ. Dudley struck the
key note of the entire convention.
Service, not more but better the need
of the hour.
The program was full Of practical
themes, which were pointedly discussed.
All can not here be named. Among the
particularly helpful and suggestive was
the address by Rev. Wissler, Of
Extra, How to Keep the Boys in the
Sunday School The first and chief
means lies within the home. parents
note this. Home control, home instruc-
ton, home example. The second within
the school. Make tho boys feel they
are wanted, then, adapt the instruction
to their advancement.
Primary work was well presented by
Mrs. w, b. Clemmer and Miss Van Scoy
These need entire conservation to God
and actual love for children. These
methods, object teaching, picture illus
trations and personal adaptation to
children's hearts.
j. A. Kerr, the conventions genius,
gave a practical and forceful object les
son with clay, which closed the afternoon
session.
f. B. Stevenson, missionary for the
great northwest Of the American Sun
| day School Union, filed the evenings
program full. His addrest magnified
the Sunday school as a great factor in
Gods work in redeeming the world, and
exalted the humble teacher Of the word
or worker in any department becomes a
| true missionary OF the cross, a means in
in Gods hand to the salvation of men,
homes and nations.
The Fridays sessions we're full of in
struction in methods. The great need
of trained teachers and workers was inn
pressed by w. b. Clemmer in an address
on Normal Work" The Teacher in
his special relations was discussed.

Humphrey; Teaching the Lesson, y
Elder McQuerry; snd Following the
Lessons Into the Homes Miss Carrie

The need Of Lesson Review both in
the class and before the school was
aptly emphasized by Rev. Jewell, Of
Brayton.
| J. A. Kerr illustrated to our entire
satisfaction how easy and how plain and
practical is teaching by use Of black
board, to the children.
The gems OF the afternoon service
were the informal conversation upon the
Teachers Meeting" led by J. A. Kerr
and the instructive and practical bible
reading and and question box by E. b.
Stevenson whose presence was an in
spiration.
The county was organized for active
work. Resolutions Of the usual order
