Thefe is a painful consciousness on
the part Of not a few persons, that the
Week of Prayer for 1899, indeed, for
several years past in Woodstock, has
not brought the blessing its promoters
have prayed for 1t is not my purpose
to criticise the manner in which the
meetings have been conducted, but to
point ont, in the humble opinion of the
writer, "a more excellent way"
First:-Let the ministers of the town
familiarize themselves with the purpose
scope and limitations Of the EraRgelic
Alliance under whose auspices the
"Week OF Prayer" was inaugurated and
and which issues annually the topics
suggested for prayer. Uuder no cir
cumstanoes should cOntroverted views
and opinions be made prominent for the
very object and purpose Of the Alliance
according to a resolution Of the first con-
ference is. ITO enable Christians to
realize i'm the nsclves and to exhibit to
others that living and everlasting union
binds all true believers together in the
fellowship of the church,"
SccOnd:-As the name suggests it
should be "Weck Of Prayer" not
week Of talking or preaching. Let there
be more prayer-earnest, agOnizng,
faith filled praying.
Thrd:-That the prayers may be to
edifcation let those who are to be called
on to lead in prayer be previously noti-
fed, in person or by letter, giving them
the topic andif necessary assigning to
each subdivision of the topic. This
will entail little labor on the leader
but it will insure more direct-pointed
prayers and it being known in advance
who are to be called on to lead in prayer,
many laymen will be relieved from sus-
pense andvill engage in the worship
With more profit to themselves.
Fourth:-lIaving done this, let each
leader Jriefb state the topics of the
evening and instead Of calling directly
on brother to pray, announce that
after the singing Ola hymn the congrega-
ton will be lead IN prayer by brother a.
This may seem tfiyial matter, but it
will be appreciated by the laymen.
Fifth Commence promptly on time
and never protract the meeting beyond
one hour. LANMAN.

The Summer School has become
quite an institution in the Islands.
Every year a number Of the teachers
take advantage Of the opportunity 10
gain new ideas and come in contact
with educators fresh from institutions
abroad. The Summer School takes the
place Of supplementary Normal. At
tendance is not compulsory. nor is a
tuition fee charged. Especially among
the teachers of the outside districts
and the ether Islands the idea is look

opportunity of combining a vacation
