MISS LYMAN's THIRD LECTURE.
Many Sunday School and Public School
Teachers in Audience.

MANY sunday School and Public School
Teachers il Audience.
Miss Lyman's lecture Wednesday
afternoon, on Telling Bible Stories"
was one particularly instructive and in
teresting. and was listened to by a
large number of teachers and Sunday
school teachers, aside from patrons Of
the course. She introduced her SUBJ
ject by saying that our best stories are
selected from the classics, and the Bible
is collection OF classics, written at
different times and with different mo-
ttves. It contains all Of the different
types OF stories The greatest men have
recognized its beauty from literary
standpoint, its authenticity concerning
cational factor, its worth as study OF
character and its greatness in the
spiritual truths, underlying all. The
liberty Of Interpretation is one part of
its imperishableness
The old Bible stories contain records
Of manners, customs and conditions of
life not all complex as ours. which
makes them especially valuable for
younger children. because of the
moral truth underlying the stor-
les of characters which are
plest stories used in the schools. The
speaker said we claim great spiritual
and educational value for the Bible, and
yet are using it with less thought and
preparation than we put on the SIM
fplest stories used In the schools. The
word obsolete Is not strong enough to
express the methods at present en-
ployed in the Sunday schools. In many
cases the teachers are ignorant and the
parents unconcerned. II we are
sincere in appreciation of the Bibles
value, these conditions will change. The
practice Of using the same lessen in
all classes was severely criticised Miss
Lyman favors grading Sunday school
classes as carefully as in the public
schools, and gave the following CLASH
fication as a possible outline:
Corresponding to NEUROLOGICAL class
les, stories of the creation. Adam and
Eve, Cain and Abel, Enoch, Noah, and
the Tower Of Babel. patriarchal stories
Abraham Cycle, Isaac, Jacob and
Joseph; hero stories-Joshua, the
Judges; tales OF chivalry-Salnuel
David, and Elijah, Elisha and Je.ash;
purpose stories-Ruth, Jonah, Els ther
and part of Job. She suggested for
graded work, that the kindergarten
take up the different festivals of the
