DEXTER AVENUE SUNDAY SCHOOL.


 Quarterly Report Made Up Showing
 Advance in Work.
 The second quarterly report of the Dexter Avenue Methodist Sunday School, showing remarkable progress in the last few months. will be hand ed the members of that organization this morning. The report. like that of the first quarter, was prepared by w. F. Feagin. Superintendent of the Sur- day School and represents an unusual amount of detailed work.
 Among the many results of the quar- ter's work shown is the fact that the enrolment which on January 1, 1908. was 2ss and on March 31 was 3e3, had increased on June 30 this year to $50.
 The average attendance of the main school for the first quarter was 2SS and for the second quarter the attend ance vaulted to 306. There was greater proportionate increase in the offerings. These had increased from Sg.s7 each Sunday for the first quar- ter to $22.14 average for the second quarter.
 That punctuality. application and study as well as other merits have shown improvement in the last quar- ter is shown by the fact that eighty nine ~>names were on the honor roll for the quarter just closed. while only thirty-seven adorned the roll during the first quarter.
 The average grade for the quarter of every one of the twenty-t i've teach CTS and the grades of all pupils are given with precision based on the sci- entiac arrangement by Superintendent Feagin. The report has been found to be a high incentive to more advanced and effective Sunday School work.
