THE CHILDISH MIND.
Some 4muSing Misunderstanding
n SuRddg School.

Meriden, Conn, Nov. 7 (SpeciaD.-The conception
formed of some things in the Bible and the under
standing of some of the passages of Scripture by
children are the source of many amusing incidents
IN Sunday school teaching especially in the pri-
mary departments Sometimes too. there is a droI
or backward pupil in the intermediate department
who becomes involved in a labyrinth of misunder-
standing. Some OF these amusing Incidents which
in = Way serve to break the monotony of the pri-
mary teaching. might be considered sacrilegious
were it not for the age of the ones who furnish
the Incidents. one teacher in a primary depart
ment Of a Connecticut Sunday school relates this
story about d pupil:
4 had been asking the members of the class If
their parents attended church. Every one said his
papa and mamma attended church until 1 reached
the least attentive pupil III the class. She said.
Nav does But doesn't your papa? I asked.
Nope; pa stays home to watch, she answered.
To watch. Why what does he watch?' I inquired
for I could not imagine what the child meant.
Now. pa says began the child, pa says that the
Bible says, il says to watch and pray; pa says
NAV goes to church-maw goes to church to pray.
an he stays home watch l smiled good
turedly at the chid's explanation. but 1 did not
attempt TO explain the Scripture then; but that is
a case which plainly illustrates how receptive is
the chid's brain, and how parents oftentimes
responsible for the spiritual life of their children
The songs that are sung in Sunday school are
often amusingly garbled by the little ones. They
learn the first few words OF a song and then often
substitute anything that comes into their minds,
and sometimes put in a part Of a lullaby or a
nursery rhyme one teacher tells of q little fellow
who invariably sang Pull for the shore, sailor
there's a bulfrog the shore" and when asked
why he changed the last line OF the verse answered
in the most serious and half offended manner:
Don't bullfrogs set on the shore?'
A teacher OF intermediary grade class says she
was one day telling her class about Abraham offer
ing his for a sacrifice when one Of the most at
tentive and studious members Of the class boy
spoke up, saying:
II thought father told me that Abraham was a
rail splitter and afterward became President Of
the United States. He must "a been President
good while ago. for they don't offer human beings
for sacrifice now"
little Cir with clear voice that could be heard
above the other members Of the class was m the
habit Of singing: Jesus loves me; when ne hollers
let him go" This was very amusing TO the chill
dren but it not in the line Of Sunday
school teaching the teacher obliged TO explain

perintendents and teachers are paid So far as can
be discovered only in the Of assistant pastors
and rectors, who have been placed in charge or
schools as superintendent, and of few kinder
garten teachers, do any receive payment for their
services. 1t is the opinion that the man who Will
work for the small salary a Sunday school can
afford to pay is apt TO be failure, and that the
laymen who are willing 10 give their services are
much better fitted to direct school A number
schools do not use the contributions of the schol
for payment Of their expenses, but devote them
entirely to philanthropc objects The expenses are
paid by the church with which they connected.
Ii new church building attention has been given
to the Sunday school rooms. and so far possible
individual classrooms which be opened into the
main are provided.

Prize Competitions are many in
these days of modern magazines, but
the priZe-winners are sometimes
rather few are far beteen. The April
number of the Woman's Home Com
panion announces three unusual prize
competitions for the benefit of the
which are rather an opportunity for
co operative exchange of ideas, and
in which the magazine proposes to
pay cash prize to every one of it's
readers who can contribute an avail
able idea or suggestion on any of the
following topics:
"How to Make School Y ards Attrac-
tive"
"How to Make Pin-Money at Home. "
"How to Pay Of Church Debts"
Why should not the local school
yard be place of beauty instead of
neglect?
Half the women of America would
like to know how to make pin-money
at home, and some few women actual
ly know how to do it.
The vital question in almost every
American community is that of finan-
cial aid for the church.
The Woman's Home Companion will
pay well for every available idea or
suggestion submitted on these sub
jects, and special prizes will be paid
for the best suggestion in each class.
Particulars will be found in the
April number of the Woman's Home
Companion, which can be found on all
news-stands.

The adoption OF local option 10
Montcalm County will be worth q
thousand dollars TO the merchants
OF Belding. There is report cur
rent upon the streets that Bedding
Is to have cou pie more saloons
provided local option carries in
Montcalm County -Belding Star.
Perhaps the Star will inform US
how "thc merchants Of Bedding"
will be benefited by he abolishing
OF liquor saloons in Greenville?
Will Greenville merchants offer less
inducements to its own people be-
cause Misunderstanding will be un-
der ban in Mon tcalm county after
next April? and will Greenville lose
any outside custom because it will
be community even more respec-
table after The close of next month,
community with less danger to
homes, with more safety to families,
less temptation To the boy and the
young man, better security to life
and property?
May be the Star classifies saloon
lists as merchants in Belding," as
it speaks IF the establishment of
two more saloons and the gain of a
thousand dollars because saloonism
in Montealm county will be voted
out April 6.
Strange to say some of the most
respectable people living on the
road between Greenville and Beld-
ing have a dread Of one result OF
closing Greenvilie groggeries, and
this fear is because of past exper-
fence. Under the present ineffective
liquor laws, ENTHUSIASTICALLY a
number of men mostly young 60 to
Belding on bum, fill up on Bedding
liquor in Belding saloons, get wild
in their intoxication and with reck.
less driving come back hooting and
yelling in their madness. Some
months ago such a party of savages
ran into conveyance with the re
suit that the collision crippled OF
manned a young woman for life
Shut up Greenville rum holes by
law, and people of south Eureka
fear an increase in the number Of
wild raids on their peace and quiet
and increased danger to life anC
property.
In passing we may remark thai
we believe that Belding people as g
whole do not exult over a possibility
of an increased income of Thousand
dollars from the establishing of two
more saloons ia their town.
