mass meeting gatherings at the
Presbyterian and Baptist chursh
es. lie is a man of brilliant mind.
a scientist and psychologist, and
stirred his audiences to high
pitch of enthusiasm. He believes
1t requires study and tact and ap,
pllcation to teach the Word of
God in the Sunday school to chill
dren-as well as it requires these
things in the day school. We
quote the following from one of
his speeches;
1T is the child upon which you
should center your attention in
every Sunday school," he de-
clared. "This hot air., that is
handed out by some Sunday
school teachers results inevitably
III soaring away the pupils and it
takes red, white and blue con.
test to get them back in the ranks.
Instead of teaching something
that is of vital interest to the chill
dren, the methods adopted by
Sunday school heads in the past
have been more for the edifcation
of the grown-ups than for the
good of the children.
"The religious education of the
child must be the center of your
efforts. The very nature Of the
child demands that Sunday
schools should be organized de.
partmentally, with graded classes
and separate assemblies. The
idea of a general assembly room
for the regular routine i'll which
the old folks play the major part
and the child is bored with unin-
teresting details is ridiculous. The
mental development Of the child
must be studied and watched thru
its various stages, with the re.
quisite religious study supplied
This can be achieved only thru
organization and competent teach,
ers."
