OE Eh OFRiNG GOSSlP.
 Mrs. N. B. Jaynes and daugh- ter, Katherines of near Mabel vale, were the guests of Mrs. C.. W. Jones Saturday.
 Quite a number of folks were out to band practice Friday night.
 The convention Sunday was well attended, and an excellent program was rendered. Mrs. Street was particularly good i n her presentation of the Bible lesson. The lesson was "The Sermon on the Mount" and it will always have a new signifi- canoe and a larger meaning t o those who listened to Mrs. Street. Primary Work in Ru- ral Schools was very clearly ex- plained by Mrs. B. w. Ferguson. The use of graded lessons was urged in all schools. Spiritual Ideals in Rural Schools" was the theme of J. V. Johnson's talk. MT. Johnson gave us some de- cidedly fine thoughts along that line. One thing in particular we should remember is that our pupils see and read Christ as he is portrayed in us, and the only way in which we may hope to have a good Sunday school is to give ourselves wholly to Christ and his work. MT. Bradshaw spoke on Building Up the School" The way to build up the school, said MT. Bradshaw, is to give yourself fully to that work; think Sunday school, not only for the Sunday school hour, for every hour of every day. Be one with your pupils. Mrs. Bradshaw favored the conven- tion with 9 solo.
 In the conference Mrs. Fergu- son had charge of the elemen- tary work, Miss Missie T. Allen the secondary, and J. V. John son the adult. Some very good points were brought out regard ing each branch of the work.
 Quite a number had to return to the city before supper, but those who remained seemed to thoroughly enjoy the good things prepared by the ladies.
 After supper we had a song service, and then listened to Fred A. Isgrig on What's It For?" and Mayor Charles E. Taylor on "The Largest Organi- zation in the World" They agreed with the speakers of the afternoon that to have a good school you must put yourself into the work and be thoroughly imbued with the Spirit of Christ.
 School opened Monday, with an enrolment of thirty-five. Mrs. H. c. Lewis, formerly Miss Jessie Cunningham, is our teacher. Mrs. Lewis is one of the most satisfactory teachers in Pulaski county, and we are very glad to have her with us.
