CLOSING SESSIONS
VERY INTERESTING
Round Table Talks And The Philathea
And Baracca Glasses Were The Sub
jects Discussed at Final Meeting,
Held Last Night.

The closing sessions of the County
Sunday School Association were de-
voted to Round Table talks and the
Philathea and Baracca Glasses.
At the afternoon session Rev. G. H.
Thompson led with prayer, after
which Mr.. w. Fred Long during the
Round Table talk answered questions
on organized Sunday School work, and
how to organize.
Among those on the informal pro-
gram was Mr.. Duncan Draughn and
Mr.. R. c. Hauenstein presided. One
thing discussed was the teachers
meeting, which Mr.. Long called the
power of the church, and told of some
churches, where a light lunch is
served at the church at o'clock by
an appointed committee of ladies', on
the day of teachers meeting. In this
way the teachers may come directly
from work, attend teachers meeting
and then stay for prayer meeting. The
men generally give an Offering of II
cents for their lunch. The tendency
to make the organized class work too
spectacular, and not spiritual enough
was also discussed, that being the
teachers place to watch the class
and guide them spiritually.
The difficulty of forming Sunda!
Schools in rural districts was consid
cred. 1t was the concensus of opin
ion that strong speakers should b.
sent out into each beat to first i'm

REDMOND INSISTS ON
Federal HOME RULE

London, Oct. 20.-The statement OF
John E. Redmond, head of the Irish
parliament party, recently made for
the purpose of defining his attitude
and that of his party in home rule
question, has aroused the keenest in
terest among English politicians, less
on the account of the personal mat
tiers involved than as to the position
to be taken by the conference of the
leaders of the two parties on the veto
question.
Mr.. Redmond denied an alleged in
terview purporting that he and his
party were willing that home rule
should be delayed in the case of Ire
land until England, Scotland and
Wales also were ready for federal
home rule.
He declared that his minimum de-
mand was for an Irish parliament with
an executive responsible thereto, and
full control of all purely Irish matters.
The general belief is that the gov
eminent has secured the Irish lead
er's acquiescence in a scheme for
home rule all around, as the first step
toward the realization of federal EN-.
pire and that the ministers have vir
tually presented to the Balfourites in
the conference an ultimatum demand
ing the acceptance of this scheme, OF
as an alternative fight to finish on
the veto question. The conference
has adjourned for fortnight which
will give breathing spell for further
consideration on both sides.
