making them welcome. This is often
neglected.
Teachers should extend a cordial
welcome to each of their students and
be pleasant and agreeable to them.
This has a great influence on the stu
dents, especially in the primary and
intermediate grades.

stake authorities visit the school the
visitor is to inscribe therein such
suggestions and comments as he re-

Of the school.
A motion to adopt the book and its
use in the Sunday Schools Of the Par
owan stake was carried unanimously.
Elder Fairbanks
of the general board said that the
superintendent of Sabbath School
teachers should devide their labors in
the management of the schools, one
Of them should take charge of the Of
icers and another should have charge
of the teachers, this man should be an
expert, and If he were not he should
qualify. He should see to it that
teachers are prepared, and lessons
should always be prepared a week in
advance.
The time for conclusion having ar
rived the company adjourned to the
regular session of the Sunday School
part of the conference in the Cedar
tabernacle.
Elder Richards Talks. :. :. :. =. -.
After the opening exercises, includ-
ing the administration of the sacra-
ment, Elder Richards said it had
taken about thirty minutes to admin
lister the sacrament, but that it was
very important matter and the time
had not been lost. He had noticed
few people who were laughing while
partaking of the sacrament, which he
thought was not right, how anybody
could do so in view of the sacred char
acter of the ordinance, and the death
and suffering it is to commemorate,
he could not understand.
He asked all the children as per-
sonal favor to promise him to observe
the Word of Wisdom which he ex-
planned to them. Also asked all the
congregation in behalf of President
Joseph F. Smith to observe the same
law, and also asked them in behalf of
the saviour to do so.
Called attention to the inconsistency
of thanking the Lord for prophet
and neglecting to follow his admoni-
tions.
Elder Myron ID. Higbee Jr a re-

world, which causes diligence.
There should be no drones in the
church of God, all should be workers.
people in the world are impressed
with the fact that our church provides
something for every faithful member
to do in its interest Said he knew
the gospel is true and to him it is the
greatest thing on Earth.
Elder Fairbanks of the General
board explained to the children the
meaning and Importance of the sac
rament, and the covenant which the
partaking of it implies Showed by
our love of beauty that we are made
happier, and that it leads to moral
and spiritual uplift.
Elder Rulon S. Wells had been much
pleased with the good order which
the children had observed and ex-
planned that although one boy might
make only little noise when many
boys made each a little noise it alto
gether would make a big noise. Asked
what would make more noise than a
pig under gate and was a little sur
prised and great deal amused by a
small lad who had held up his hand
exclaiming 1.-TWO pigs.
