cess. the Sunday School convention
at St. Lukes on July II and 18 was
grand success. The attendance was
large. the delegation was fair and the
discussions were fine. On Wednes-
day the attendance was said to be 400,
and on Thursday 500. Ii was one Of
the largest attended conventions your
correspondent has ever seen. It was
thoroughly enjoyed. The program
was carried out as published in The

Rev. S. H. Zimmerman, Of Colum-
bia, preached 4 very interesting ser
mon in Wig1ttman Chapel Sunday af-
ternoon. His theme was "Christ all
and in ALL" First the hcme; second
the school: third. our work; fourth,

but those of moderate means, those
who, not out of their abundance, but

in God. and the work would be done.
