MISSION
WORK OF
SCHOOLS
The Rev. Mr.. Love Tells About
Ii at International
Convention.
THEY PLAY A BIG PART
In the Extension of Christianity
As Well As Building
Up Churches.
THEY PLAY A BIG PART

LOUISVILLE, KY. June 22-Be-
fore the International Sunday School
convention is session here, the Rev
j. F. Love, of Atlanta. Ga, delivered
an, interesting address on Home Mis-
sions and the Sunday school, today.
Rev. Mr.. Love said in part:
The Sunday school had mission
ary inception and must be mission
ary in its character. No sharp line
can be drawn between the mission
work of cur boards Though their
missionaries and the mission work OF
teachers. Missions Is showing the
Truth and saving lost people. The
man who believes In the Truth aud
In saving lost people believes in the
missions. There Is no place for the
Sunday school in the work of the
churches IL there Is no place for mis-
sions in the work OF the Sunday
school. If the Sunday school Is not
missionary 1t has no mission, There
Is. perhaps, no better evidence of the
proficiency of those who prepare the
curricula of tn Sunday schools than
the place they are now giving mis-
slons among the subjects to be taught
The Sunday school is maker or
converts to- Christianity, which Is the
essential mark of missionary agency
The Sunday school Is to be the pro-
moter of missionary benevolence.
We shall not have a generation of
contributors in our churches until
our Sunday schools train 1t,
But we are making more than con-
verts In the Sunday school and will
get more than money from them.
Here is the missionary plant-bed of
the churches.
What have said for missions in
the sunday scvhools applies with
even additional emphasis as an argu-
ment for home missions in the Sunday
schools.
Your business, as teacher is to
fit your pupils to their sphere for the
largest benfts to others.
The Sunday school must teach
home missions in order TO produce
symmetrical character inthechurchesA
The Sunday school must teach
home missions to fulfill Its primary
function. which Is that OF teaching
the Bible.
Teach home missions In the Sunday
school because our home mission
boards are the chief propagators of
the Sunday school.
The first home missionary oppor-
tunity belongs to the Sunday school
teacher. The teacher must prepare
the way for the preacher.
Save the Anglo-Saxon race and you
save one-third of, the earth's terri
tory and one-fourth of its people; you
save the race which controls the
moulding forces OF the new clviliza-
ton, and you save the race which
more than any other is changing the
face OF the earth.

The Reymann Brewing Company of

stolen during the period that the

Another thing that makes 1t look
bright for the city is that Cashier II
b. Mckinley, has an offer for the
Salem window glass plant. and the
deal will no doubt be closed in few
days, and If the deal Is made this
