+, At the meeting of the Presbyter-
ian synod at St. Paul last week Rev
R. L. Barackman of Marshall, broth
er OF F. J. Barackman of this city,
made report for special commit
tee on young peoples work. The
report contained suggestions that
brought out some strong protests
from the conservative ministers
present, and was eventually tabled.
It suggested that the synod take
steps looking toward the prepare
ton of text books on the bible, suit
able to all grades of learners, and
covering the whole range of Bible
instruction up to high school
grade, and that in this graded
course OF study the text book be SO
prepared as to be fit to be placed in
the hands of Sabbath school pupils,
as we'll as in the hands of teachers
That these text books contain refer
ences of scripture, the bible story,
and questions and answers and pas
sages to be memOriZed. That in
course of text books the shorter
catechism find place, to be COM
mitted to memory, and that doctrinal
instruction in the forms of the West
Minister confession of faith be intro
duced: whenever able, financially,
be urged to supply trained, conse-
Grated, Salaried teachers for the pu-
pills of the Sabbath schools, and that
these teachers be given charge Of
the children of those churches I'M
der the superintendency of the pas
tor for period of not less than
three consecutive hours per week.
That pupils may be instructed in
grades or groups during periods ar
ranged on Saturdays or Sabbaths,
and further suggested that when
ever possible the pastors of the
church superintend the Sabbath
schools.
