Within the last five years the Bible
schools OF the country have been max
ing marvellous strides in the direction
Of efficiency and perfect organization.
Those who were privileged to hear
Miss Cynthia Maus of Cincinnati and
Roy X. Roadruck of Louisville, in the
Christian church Sunday were given
visions of the importance of the
church school and of the great Tespon-
sibility that rests upon the teacher,
the parents and the church in prop
er relation themselves to the great
task of leading into religious life the
youth of a community.
Miss Maus' address in the church
service in the morning was a revela-
ton OF three things. First, it made
clear the bigness and importance of
the topic The Church and the Youth.
Second, her address revealed her Won
derful ability as a pupil speaker, and
third, it made evident the fact that
she was a specialist in her line and
had thought her subject through.
In the after her talk on the char
acteristics of the Tonnage girl and
boy and her closing address on the
building of lesson was exceedingly
helpful to all those present.
Roy X. Roadruck was also at home
in his treatment of his topics. He
gave the aims of the state organiza-
tion for this year. He spoke on the
Big Brother movement in Bible school
work, and described the organization
of the teen-age class.
The officers of the Christian church
school are planning to have these
specialists and another here again fol-
a few weeks institute on Bible school
methods and instruction.
