TEACHER-TRAINING CLASS
WORK IN BIBLE STUDY

h The systematic training of Sun
/ day school teachers in Bible, study
lis an organized work but lately
begun in Honolulu, but one which has
in the past few years had widespread
and rapidly increasing interest on the
mainland.
1t is an organized effort for increase
Of Bible study. Its original purpose
/ was to be to the Sunday school what
the Normal School is to the public
| school; namely to have in readiness a
reserve force of well trained teachers
| for the Sunday schools as occasion
might require. So great was the inter
est awakened in Bible study by the
movement, that others than teachers
sought enrolment, and the ranks of stu
dents became filed by numbers taking
up the work simply for the sake of In
crease of knowledge upon the Bible.
Within the very limited time since
Its organization upon the present basis,
the class advancement has extended
over forty-one of our States, and into
Canada, Mexico and Australia.
AS yet there is report of but one
class IN Rhode Island and one in South
Australia, but reports from other local
ltles show not less than two classes
70 State, and from that on ND to
I'VE hundred and over to a State.
At present time the State of New
jersey ranks the lowest in number of
pupils enrolled; this number being nine,
teen. The class in Honolulu begun in
the latter part of 1908, has almost
doubled the New Jersey number. but
yet for inspiration in the work looks
toward Illinois, which as a State thus
tar takes the lead; her enrolment Of
pupils at the end of June being lS.040.
Ohio stands second in rank, having an
enrolment Of 1850 The total enroll
ment as given by last reports was 1885,
lo0. In this aggregate number of pu-
pills fourteen different denominations.
or branches of the Christian church
are represented
Standing first in the enumeration of
cities is Cincinnati, Ohio. Regarding
the work in this section we herewith
quote from a Cincinnati paper of
June O.
Cincinnati was once so famous for
It's Strengthening interests that it was
called Porkopolis Now it makes and con-
sumes so much beer that foreigner.
while on a visit here, wrote home md
said: There are good many beer
gardens in Ohio, and Hamilton Couatv
IS one Of them But. happily. Cincin-
natl is winning more creditable laurels:
and not the least of these is the Tact
that 1t has the largest and most *hor-
eughly organized Sunday school teach
ers training classes and the most bril-
l1ant graduation exercises of any city
IN the world. This was illustrated for
third time when the union graduation
exercises of the teacher training classes
OF Cincinnati and vicinity were held
IN Music Hall on the evening of June
|: IN the presence of 5000 people, and
diplomas were handed to $50 graduates.

thusiastic and capable Sunday school
workers, and some phenomena1ly gifted
teachers. These have pioneered the
work. All that was necessary was an
Iinspirational leader, tactfui organ
izer. He appeared in the person of the
Rev. Herbert Moninger. Mr.. Moninger
is a graduate of Bethany and Yale, and
a specialist in Greek. Under his lead
| ership 200 churches of the three coun-
ties, representing fourteen denomina-
tions, have been federated, forty-two
classes organized. and forty training
class teachers employed. The superb
/ graduation exercise was no accident,
| but natural and beautiful as the open
ing of fower-the result of long, I'M
obtrusive, patient processes.
.sThe assembly in itself was thrill
lingly effective. Parquette, dress cir
Gle, and gallery to the roof were one
human mass. At the first strains of
| the grand march by the orchestra, a
column appeared in the main aisle, and
| $50 couples fled to their places on the
! platform. 1t was cumulative IN i'm
pressiveness. After a moments hush,
| 5000 voices repeated in perfect unison
| the Twentv-third Psalm and the Lord 8
prayer. During the exercises which fol-
| lowed. sample of the normal work was
given in the form of class concert
drin, conducted by Mr.. Moninger. With
faultless precision the numerous and
difficult questions were answered by al
most regiment Of voices.
stThe address of the occasion was
given by DIR. Gunsaulus of Chicago.
ha sJFnTfU af the
Bible To that assembled multitude,
he, man whose ability is recognized
as minister author, poet, lecturer, open
ed the Bible to the story of Eden, and
affirmed it true as a picture OF life
man beginning his career IN natural
ISM coming to a real tree of knowledge,
and losing his innocence which ne
would never regain. Next he opened
the Bible to Revelation, and afflrmed
the picture true. Man s progress IS
from a garden of innocence to city
of holiness. From the intermediate
teaching as found in the Book Ezekiel,
he drew the lesson that sacrifice is the
way from innocence to holiness, from
Representatives. to Wilderness, from
negative to positive. Thus the essen
tial unity of the Bible was affirmed
not as the finding OF scholarship, hot
as the dogma of ecclesiasticism, but
as the intuition of faith and devotion. =
In the pursuit of this course as al
ready mapped out to its completion, the
study of three books is required:
First, ''Training for Service, y by Her
bert Moninger, consisting Of fifty les
sons Second ''The New Testament
Church, as arranged by same author
in twenty lessons Third, ga Sunday
School Vision, arranged in ten les

close of each book. and recognition Civ

Cut Out" the Slang.

The protest against the common
iuse of slang by college and univer-
Isity students in this country which
comes from Prof. Olin of the Wis
!conSin university, is timely and in
iorder. There is some excuse for
certain forms of slang in the busi-
mess world, and, in the realms of
Isports, and some of the best of these
soon enter into the current Ian
lguage because they are pert and
expressive.
But it must be admitted that our
Language is poorly perverted by the
,use of terms which are neither or
mate nor effective,
The value of language consists
largely in its adherence to root
meanings and if our colleges and
universities do not maintain these,
we shall find ourselves gradually
losing grip of all the foundations of
literary tongue.
While, therefore, we do not depre-
iciate the use of term which may
iprove brief and forceful in common
speech, we would join Prof. Olin and
ask that schools and colleges hold
the student to the language of the
dictionary and thus save to us some
thing ofthe purity of good language
