The Philadelphia Press has been ask
ing the question, "Who are the three
greatest Americans?" and has had a
number of replies, one from Mayor
Warwick, who names four: Washing
ton, Hamilton, Webster and Lincoln,
as the group from which the three
should be selected. Few people will
dissent from the names of Washington
and Lincoln, and perhaps no great
number from that of Hamilton, whose
eminent abilities and distinguished
services are more and more appre
ciated as his character is studied and
understood. But while Webster had
certainly a commanding intellect and
a mental force seldom equalled, he
failed in his duty to the country at
trying moment and can never be
classed among her truly great men.
His 7th of March speech, in which he
sacrificed duty to a weak ambition,
effectually shut him out from being
regarded as one of Americas greatest
men.

AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF IN
STRUCTTON.

The 66th annual convention of the
American Institute of Instruction.
which is to be held at Bethlehem
N. H., July 6, 10, IL and Is, will offer
one of the grandest opportunities for
O pleasant and instructive summer
outing that the present vacation sea-
son is likely to afford. The conyen-
ton itself will be one Of the most i'm
portant educational gatherings of the
year, and it is hard to decide which
will outweigh in attractiveness-
program itself or the scenic beauties
Of the glorious temple of Nature in
the midst of which the meetings will
be held.
As to the former, many of the
speakers who will address the con-
vention are specialists of national re
pute, and they will discuss some of the
most pressing problems of the day in
education. The morning sessions will
be held in Cruft Hall at Bethlehem,
and the evening sessions in the cosy
Casino at Maplewood. A male quar-
tet, composed of some of the best
known singers in the country, will
furnish music.
OF the out door attractions of fam
GUS Bethlehem itself it is hardly nee
essary to speak. No place in the
health giving, invigorating air, more
delightful scenery and better hotel
and boarding house accommodations.
No trip could be a more pleasurable
one, and the fact that it is made over
the Boston & Maine Railroad is suf-
ficient guarantee that it will be a
comfortable one, physically. Special
rates have been made for the conven-
ton by both the railroad and hotels,
and all persons interested in educa-
tional matters, whether teachers or
others, are eligible to membership in
the Institute and to participation in
these reduced rates.

SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION.


A Sunday school rally of the towns
of Sheffield and Wheelock was held
in the Union church at Wheelock on
Thursday, June 4, there being large
attendance and interesting exercises.
In fact, it was the most largely at
tended convention Of Sunday school
workers ever held in these towns.
The hearty and cordial reception ten
dered them by the good people of
Wheelock is worthy of special note
The exercises were opened at p.
M. with devotional services, led by
Rev. S. G. Johnson of Sheffield, fol-
lowed by the regular program. Rev.
S. G. Johnson presided and Geo. Gift
| fin was made secretary.
The superintendent of the various
schools reported their work, of which
the following is a summary: South
Wheelock has 40 scholars and gave
so cents for county work; Baptist
school of Sheffield has 40 scholars and
gave S1.50 for State and county work;
The Methodist Episcopal school of
Sheffield has six officers, eight teach
ers and ninety scholars; fourteen join
ed the church the past year; average
attendance, Y; raised for State work,
$1.OO; missions, $500. Union school,
Wheelock, has 25 scholars and raised
81 so for county work.
Rev. F. F. Lewis gave an address
on 'sOur State Motto.'' The speaker
urged the necessity of personal work
among the neglected parts of the
towns.
Nominations, B. F. Taylor, Mrs.
Flora Hall. This closed the after
noon session and the visiting dele
gates were invited to a bountiful re-
past in the town hall.
The evening session was opened
with song service followed by pray
err The committee on nominations
presented the name of Rev. SC. John
son for district president and Mrs.A.J.
Emerson, secretary, and they were
elected for the ensuing year.
Rev. Mr.. Morrow gave an address
on 'sWhat Can be Done to Promote
More Thorough Bible STUDY" He
advocated heart training and careful
preparation of the lessons. Rev. S.
@. Johnson followed with thoughts
on the same subject. He said that the
Bible was a large and open field and
invited seekers after truth, and for
an able man to give his whole life to
any other book would bring about a
dwindling of soul and wasting of pow
ers. The superintendent and teach
ers spoke interestingly on the same
subject. Rev. T. F. Lewis of Hard
wick followed with a chalk talk, IL

the purpose and they can always be
found in every lesson.
This closed the session and the peo-
pie went away with grateful memoir

pointment was felt at the failure of
