No less earnest and tender were the ap-
peals for large classes of adults, who,
by joining the Sunday school forces,
will help US greatly.
There was warmth, kindly feeling,
prompt responses, desire to help and
be helped. Even ministers said they
believed it was the best Sunday school
convention they had ever attended.
the reports showed slight increase
IN the number of schools and proved
that, although there's much to gain,
an earnest effort is being made to lift
the schools to higher standard.
Only three who were on the program
failed to be present and one of these had
a substitute, consequently but two num-
bers were omitted. REGULATIONS were
given by young ladies who are making
an effort in the right direction.
The special music and the table of
chrysanthemums were appreciatedas was
also the work of the committee who in
troduced us to the comforts of the homes
and gave us new friends.
