Repentance is the knowledge thatthe
traveller is on the wrong path, and
conversion is the getting back on the
true track. DR.. Robertson made a
strong plea for the child. who IS
brought into the world to be a child Of
the kingdom, but often falls by the
wayside and becomes a child of the
devil instead.
In his remarks Rev. Mr.. Beard paid
particular attention to the Importance
of training the child and urged upon
parents the necessity of the Sunday
school as a of DEVELOPMENT.
He argued for the Sunday school and
even suggested that but one preaching
service be held in the churches ana
the other services IN Sunday be given
over entirely to the children. If a
church is spending large sums for
music and the Sunday school is
wanting for anything DIR. Beard sug-
gested that the music be dispensed
with and the Sunday school be given
the needed financial assistance.
