 The report. is stated is based on a comparison of last season. For Arkansas the per eentage of ap- pie crop is given as 600 a9o9). There was no apple crop iH Ark ansas in 1908 so We might as we'll make the figures 1000 or f004o per cent greater than last year It would mean about as much. It is d brilliant idea to use an off year, or year of light crop as standard of comparison It makes things show up handsomely for the grower in the matter of production, and the buyer as 10 prices.

personal interest by the teacher in the scholar If teacher only meets his scholars on Sunday he cannot enter much into their lives 1 But if he finds out their hopes and ambitions and helps them. he inn bues their minds with the idea that Le is not only their teacher. but their friend Such n fact, he should be
 We can sum up by saying that the teacher must have love in his heart The more of 1t he possesses, and the more freely he allows it to flow forth. the greater will be his success.
 In what l have thus far said, 1 have taken it for granted that qual= ity. not quantity. is the goal. \ Sunday School is not circus or picnic. It does not exist for pur- l poses of entertainment, but for in stfHetien and moral growth. Hence have very little use for the em= ployment of means which looks on- ly to the addition of mere numbers. It is all very well te have the most popular boy or girl in town in your class. and it is right and proper to use that popularity as drawing card Provided. that emphasis Is placed upon the lesson and that in the scholars scale Of value the less on comes first
 This brings us naturally to the social side of Sunday School aetiy- ity. believe in getting the class and the school together in a social way two or three times year. It does them good, and the teacher viii gain an insight into another side of his scholars character than classroom affords But the the social side ought always be kept subordinate to the instructional or religious side
 Keeping in mind then that qual- l ity with quantity is the most desira- ble in the upbuilding Of the class and school, We come to the last method of legitimate work which l shall note and doubtless the most effective Get tha scholars to so- l lieit attendance of their friends and aeqHaintances outside Of any Sun day School It is not fair to at- tempt to lure pupils who are regular attendants at some other school What is wanted is neW souls won God; as far as effective Christ ianity is concerned. one denemina- tion k practically as good as any i other The scholars can meet those l whom the teacher never would meet i in ordinary relations they can Use means which the teacher can not employ.
 There is much more that might l be said such as making the place of meeting attractive. the appoint lnent of visiting committees, the or ganization of various auxiliaries, etc but those will doubtless be brought out in discussion, and their ampli- fication herein would add unneees sary length to a paper already long enough.

Mans Best Asset
Reputation.

A good reputation is a mans
best trademark. Reputation is
not what a man thinks of himself
bat what others think of him. A
mans estimate of himself isn't
apt to pass current. Most men
would put the value far too high.
Some few would put it too low.
Generally tie estimate is in in
verse ratio to the value. An un-
prejudiced public may be trusted
to strike a just level. When it is
announced that a new miracle
working device has been invented
the world is skeptical. Ii it is
stated that Edison is the inventor
skepticism is changed to faith. In
the reputation Of the Wizard Of
Menlo the public puts its trust.
| n. P. Willis, who is scarcely re-
mem bered by succeeding genera
ton, considered himself the great
est American poet. That was Will
lis estimate. Bryant, Longfellow
and Holmes set themselves upon
no pedestal, but their regulations
were and are secure. They rest
upon the estimate Of the public.
We can build, but we cannot die
tate reputation.
A prominent Western advertiser
was once asked what he considered
the most essential element In adj
vertising. His reply was, "Repu-
tation.'' "a page advertisement"
said he, sis of little value unless
the man making the announce
ment has reputation to back it
up
Reputation multiplies the value
of printers ink.
A reputation is too valuable an
asset to be sacrificed to greed.
It is so valuable that it should
be the aim of every man to attain.
