The lessons for the past three
months extend over a period Of per
haps fifteen years, from A. D. 81 or 10
to a. D. SO or IS. II 10 the history
Of an ever expanding church and the
ever widening influence OF the worb
which Jesus began and continued to
do after his resurrection, through the
Holy Spirit No adequate or proper
review can be conducted without the
aid of map. II none Is available
take large sheet Of manila paper
/. end let come Of the scholars make
an outline map showing the strategic
centers, Jerusalem, Damascus. Anti
och and as far west as Philippi, alec
the country involved, tho coast line
of the Great Sea-" etc. 1t is q good
idea not to locate the chief cities, but
have pupils attach to the map small,
round, red and white stickcrs on
which might be printed the name Of
each city. Then other pupils might
trace on the map tho course of Paul's
Journeys. II all Of this work is done
in the presence Of the entire school 1t
will aid greatly in holding attention
Elas well as placing before the schol.
ars d visible delneation Of the lands
involved In this portion Of sacred his
tory. The most outstanding incidents
which have been studied during the
past quarter, such us the conversion
sf Saul, the healing OF Aeneas. the
.rpising 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.
Ire in the school number of travel
clubs. Let each club come prepared
to give a "trayelogue.' or travel talk,
describing some Of the chief events,
ilsuch as the Damascus Journey. Q
Journey to Joppa, to Cyprus, to Icont
lum. from Antioch to Jerusalem, etc
Let the pupils write out their ac
counts and as each is written have
lsome scholar indicate on the map the
jplaces involved, and others hang up
In plain sight Of the entire school
piece of cardboard bearing a single
sentence indicative Of the leading les
lson Of the event described. This lat
tier will mean to use q sentence OF
parts of sentences as: "We are men
Eof like passions as you" The ele
,ment Of contest could be employed b.
having all the pupils In a given de
lpartment bring such sentences relat
ling to the lessons on cards. and let
that scholar who can bring tho great.
est number Of sentences DO declared
the winner. The teacher must Of
course help materially in such con
test by direct suggestion and by en-,
Icouraging the pupils to undertake the
task before them.
For the adult and older teen age
Iclssses it might be we'll to assign to
different scholars q number OF great
dproblems which have been treated in
1.-THE lessons Of the quarter, and let
each come to the class prepared to
read Q brief essay or to discuss the
subject assigned, relating It of course
Ito the work Of the review. (Lesson
~ How the Holy Spirit converts
men today Lesson W "How can
the church be aroused to the great
work Of missions" (Lesson VIlD
1.-THE Perils of Popularity" lesson
I'D .The conditions Of salvation" and
30 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.
Such o use Of charts is valuable In
that It appeals to the eye. is real
test Of knowledge and helps to sys-
tematire our information for future
use.
The facts of the quarter are about
as follows: .t.s.
