tory. The most outstanding incidents
which have been studied during the
past quarter, such as the conversion
of Saul, the healing OF Aeneas. the
raising of Dorcas, Peters visit to Cor.
nelius, etc, could also be located
geographically by means OF thumb
lacks with tags attached. A most In
teresting review would be to organ
ize in the school a number OF travel
clubs. Let each club come prepared
to give 'travelogue,' or travel talk,
describing some Of the chief events,
such as the Damascus journey,
journey to Joppa. to Cyprus. to Iconi.

Let the pupils write out their ac-
counts and as each Is written have
some scholar indicate on the map the
places involved. and others hang up
in plain sight of the entire school
piece Of cardboard bearing a single
sentence indicative Of the leading les
son OF the event described. This lat.

parts OF sentences as: I'VE are men

course help materially in such a con-
test by direct suggestion and by en-
couraging the pupils to undertake the
task before them.
For the adult and older teen age
classes 1t might be we'll to assign to
different scholars q number of great
problems which have been treated In
the lessons of the quarter, and let
each come to the class prepared to
read a brief essay or to discuss the
subject assigned. relating 1t OF course

the church be aroused to the great
work of missions" CLesson Wild

SO on. Another interesting plan
would be to have different members
OF the class prepare at home a brief
synopsis OF the chief characters OF
the quarters lessons.

test OF knowledge and helps to sys-
