District Sunday School Convention.

DiSbIICt IouHuuy oCHOOl COHNcuUlOHs
The Second District Sunday School
convention, held in the Christian
church Saturday, September 10, was
one of the most helpful, as we'll as
the most enjoyable meetings of the
kind ever held in the city. DR.. Stalker,
district president, presided. Eleven out
of the fourteen schools in this district
were represented. The rural schools
had larger representation than those
of the town. In response to the roll
call, brief review of the condition of
each school was given, showing the
majority in a flourishing state of
growth. Mountain View Friends at
Greenleaf carried off the palm for
regularity of attendance, averaging
76 out of an enrolment of so.
The morning session opened at
1920 with a devotional service led by
Rev. McGrew of Greenleaf, whose
words were an inspiration to his
hearers.
Mrs. j. A. Baker of Nampa, the
state and county superintendent of
Teacher Training" department, en-
phasized the need of organized study
classes among teachers and outlined
briefly but comprehensively a course
of study, which included Bible study,
psychology and pedagogy; a course as
complete as that required of day
school teachers. At present there are
less than half dozen such classes in
this district, but others will be organ
| lied soon, as a result of Mrs. Baker
enthusiasm.
A picnic dinner was served in the
lecture room of the church, delegates
from the different schools contribut-
ing baskets filled with all manner of
good things, including fruits and
melons that narrowly escaped the
county fair.
Mrs. Cortner of Payette, state and
county superintendent of the TEN
perance Department" gave an address
on How to Teach Temperance Les
sons" Mrs Cortner thoroughly un-
derslands the subject she has In
charge and gave some interesting
ways of presenting it to classes.
1.-THE Adult Glass Movement" was
presented by Mr.. Merritt in brief adj
dress, followed by a short talk by Miss
Nellie Byers of Boise, secretary of the
State Sunday School association.
A solo by Miss Grace Van Wyngar,
ten was much enjoyed, it being fol
lowed by the business period.
The election of officers for the en-
suing year resulted as follows: Presi
dent, Dr. Stalker; vice president, Mr.
Roseman; secretary Mrs. p. A. Wiley
district temperance superintendent
Mrs. w. S. Hawkes.; teacher training
superintendent, Prof. Lawrence Clip
son; superintendent of home depart
ment, Miss Georgia Mcfarland.
1t was decided to adopt the ten-cen
4 per capita plan in this district 40
raising it's pledge to state work.
The evening session was occupie
by W. C. Merritt of Tacoma, who
i making the rounds of conventions /
this state. Mr.. Merritt is a pleasing
unaffected speaker, and Sunda
It school enthusiast. AS presented b
e him the subject, Seeing Visions
n Sunday School Possibilities" wa
e doubly interesting.

French says the people want the di-

must be hundreds among the sub
scribers of the Tribune who are ear
nest advocates of this innovation, and
who have sound and weighty argu-

raay get great light on the subject.
