perfection than either of them The
Sunday-school takes the little child
from it's mothers knee and cultivateS its
moral character. We lift him up to-
ward perfection. The Bible contains
all we can find in other books. If we
want history, we find it there; If we
want biography, it is there, showing
all the virtues and all the faults of the
persons it speaks of; if we want poetry
what is finer than the book of Job?
What is sweeter than songs of Solo
mon? 1t gives us the most perfect OF
all literature and the child listens to it
with interest when we read or tell it to
him. The seed that is dropped in his
mind grows and fourishes and bears
fruit for all future ages. AS they listen,
the Holy Ghost comes TO fix it and i'm
press it on their minds What blessed
privilege is the teachers, to have the
trust given him to teach for eternity.
After song and prayer the convention

and need it, so the primary teacher
must be always on the outlook Tor
something new for the little ones.
There must be change in the order
of the exercises, doing the same thing,
perhaps. but in a different way.
We have found it effective to change
the position of the chairs and tables
and to let them march in different
ways.
At present our class sing a marching
song, Hear the Pennies Dropping,
as they march around the table to
drop their pennies in the box.
The marching rests their little bodies
and prevents much of the restlessness
which annoys both teacher and schol-
ars
Dear fellow-teachers, do you find the

regular? We do.
OF course, an interesting lesson does
much to keep up the attendance, but

Visiting the homes and looking up
the absent scholars is a great help
and also an important part of the
teachers work.
Where is the teacher who has spent
a whole afternoon hunting up some lit
tie child, and has seen the pleased ex-
preston on his face because he IS re-
membered by her, and has noticed the
assurance with which he takes ms
place the following Sunday, that does
not say lit pays?
Then, too, nothing appeals to the
parents so much as the fact that their
child is remembered and sought for.
A paper and a loving inquiry sent by
relative or neighbor helps to bring
back the absent scholar.
Also, smile and a kind word out Of
Sunday-school does much to win the
| little ones.

of those points of the work which have

The question of keeping the children
in the Sunday-school after they are
IA or 15 years old was discussed. one
delegate said that such judgment
should be used in teaching them that
they would be converted before reach
ing that age, and that if that were
done there would be no difficulty there
after in keeping them both in Sunday
day-schoo1 and church work.
Mr.. Dunn said that he went with his
| children and had so taught them that
they esteemed it privilege to go with
their parents.
Rev. Sherman said that the children
who go to the day schools do not need
! to be told to go, but go as matter
of course. Just so the children can be
taught that they are to go to Sunday
school on Sunday.

BETRAYED BY A SPANISHCLERK
Mr.. A. +. Moynelo's Experience With
a Castillian Employe.

Mr.. A. f. Moynelo had an ugly trick
played upon him by a Spanish employe
recently. As many people are aware, Mr..
Moynelo is Il native Cuban, though now
an American citizen. Naturally his sym
pathies have been very much aroused in
behalf of his former countrymen during
their destructive and devastating effect
for freedom. The prospect OF interven-
ton by the United States was nailed with
delight by Mr.. Moynelo.
When the members Of the Cotton EK-
change met some time ago for the pur-
pose Of adopting peace resolutions Ar.
Moynelo was one OF the eleven members
of the exchange who voted against the
resolution, and in conversation with his
friends he expressed his disapproval OF
the action Of the exchange.
Mr.. Moynelo had spaniard In his en-
ploy as clerk who, IL seems, was not
pleased with the action and sentiments
of his employer. In his shipping business
Mr.. Moynelo had dealings with num-
her Of Spanish houses. not alone In Spain,
but chiefly in South American countries.
In fact he had been engaged In the ef-
for. TO build up trade with the latter
countries. The clerk prepared a circular
letter and sent It to all the Spanish
houses with which his employer had
dealings. and also to a number Of Spanish
newspapers, giving an account or his en-
ployer's pro-Cuban sympathes, and MS
desire to bring on war between Spain
and the United States. Very probably the
clerk made no effort 10 understate the
case.
Mr. Moynelo was entirely in the dark

ing laid under his business enterprises
