UNIVERSITY SUNDAY SCHOOL,

II is most gratifying to note the very
promising conditions under which the
University sunday school has entered
upon the third year Of It's existence
As is known among those who have
read the announcements made from
time to time the school named Is un-
der the immediate direction OF the
Deseret sunday School Union board
and Is therefore not directly connected
with either ward or stake organlza-
lions. The purpose in establishing the
school was that OF affordlng opportu-
nifty for theological training among
the many young Latter.day Saints who
come 10 this city from outlying wards
IN order 10 avail themselves Of the
school facilities IN higher branches here
TO be found. These students do not as

IN which they lodge, and to them the

the world a sign OF the coming OF the
son Of Man, or His kingdom? IL this
event not 50 far away as to have no
interest to this generation
The very conditions briefly touched
upon are one OF the signs that His
coming is not so Tar of as many be-

was since there was a nation Look
Ing around u.s. how can we escape the
impression that the elements Of trouble

In France too, there is an agitation
FOR a better observance Of the Sunday,
Shop hands. BARRIERS, day laborers, and
others ask Tor day Of rest out OF sew

observance may be, the French Sunday
