The monthly meeting Of the Methodist
Sunday-School Society of Richmond was
held at Trinity Methodist church Sunday
afternoon at $3.50 o'clock-Alfred j. Gary,
president: Charles L. Rady, secretary.
The meeting was a very interesting one,
and well attended. The superintendent of
Trinity school reported the school in good
condition. The monthly reports from the
several schools indicated considerable i'm
provement in roll strength as well as
average attendance.
Rev. A. Il. Dunaway, ID. D., made an
excellent address-subject, The Family
and the Sunday School" The Doctor
elaborated the following points, l. The
family needs the Sunday school to help
in the spiritual management of the chill
dren; 2. To promote spiritual growth in
Christian knowledge; 8. AS a safeguard
against evil. The Sunday school needs
the family to sustain 1t and to ensure its
prosperity. The address was full of good,
wholesome advice.
The exercises were enlivened by excel
lent singing by a quartette from ST.
Johns German church choir, consisting
of Mrs. Kohler, Miss Mcneil Mr.. Phil
lips, and Mr. Rueger.
The next meeting of the society will be
held at Centenary church second Sunday
in November. Board meeting at Broad
Street church fourth Sunday in this
month.
