There are a variety of methods to
be followed in reviewing the work OF
the past six months and to give va
riety. Teachers of classes, or super
intendents of schools, may select one
or combine several, as their judgment
dictates. OF course, the easiest way
is to procure a good speaker who is
familiar with the Gospel of John and
the lessons of the past quarter, and
let him bring out in the review its
most outstanding and salient features.
One method would be to have one
minute talks either by members of the
class or persons selected from the
school. Each Of twelve scholars could
be assigned one minute, each to have
one of the lessons Of the past quar-
ter.
Another good way would be to take
the outstanding and significant verses
from the lessons of the quarter, not
the golden text, but verses which seem
to emphasize the outstanding features
of the six months work. "Behold the
Lamb of God" och. 1 :36): Eye must
be born again." (3:D; "Come see
man which told me all things that ever
I did; is not this the Christi" a :293:
"Verily, verify say unto you, he that
heareth my word and believeth on him
that sent me, hath everlasting life and
shall not come into condemnation but
is passed from death unto life" Is:
24). 81 must work the works of him
that sent me while it is day; the night
cometh when no man can work"
Another method of review would be,
particularly in the adult classes, to
have each lesson with its present-day
emphasis. For instance, the past quar-
ter: Lesson 1.-The Christian in his
dealing with blindness. Lesson p
Modern wonders of healing and medi-
cal missions. Lesson 3-The shep-
herding of church members. Lesson
DO we know how to give? Lesson 5
Is Christ supreme in our national
life? Lesson 6-Ambition and its cure.
Lesson THE worlds good springing
from Christ. Lesson S-Temperance
reform. Lesson 9-The Holy Spirit in
everyday life. Lesson 10-HoW Christ
is betrayed and denied today. Lesson
1.-THE uplifting power of the cross.
Lesson 12-Why men believe in inn
mortality.
A good method of review would be
to have someone take up each of the
that pupils may be prepared for this
method. The teacher would write the
texts of the quarter, each on a sepa-
rate piece of cardboard, and lay them
face down on a table; pupils would
then draw the golden texts, one at
time, and tell what the lesson is to
which this text belongs, giving as full
an account of the lesson as possible,
the teacher helping out with questions
where necessary.
1t will be of great value to the pu-
pills if they can get in this review
clear outline of the main events OF
Christ's last weeks upon earth, COW
cred particularly by the past quarter.
There are forty standing events OF
the past quarters: ID The healing of
the man born blind; (2) Jesus the good
Shepherd; (3) Jesus sending forth the
seventy; (4) Jesus in Berea; (5) The
raising of Lazarus; (6) The ten 1ep-
ers healed; 90 Bartimaeus at Jericho;
(S) Jesus visits Zaccheus; (9) Jesus
anointed by Mary; QO) The fig tree;
CID Triumphal entry; (12) Cleaning
the temple; (13) Weeping over Jeru-
salem; CAD The widows mite; (16)
The Greeks seek Jesus; (16) Prepare
ton for the passover; (17) Washing
the disciples feet; (1S) The Lords
supper; (19) The farewell discourse;

trays Jesus; (23) The arrest of Je-

fore Caiphas; CID Jesus before the

(36) Burial; (37) Resurrection (3S)

AS brought out heretofore, John
sets forth the purpose of this Gospel;
namely, that Jesus is the Christ, the
Son of God, and that believing on him
we might have everlasting life, eternal
life in his name" (See golden text.
A Suggestion.
In setting forth this review, let us
not as teachers and officers, overlook
the opportunity we have of calling
from our scholars an expression of the
faith that has been born within them
(See ROM 10 g, 1O). Jesus the light
of the world has power to set men free
from sin and whom the son shall
make free is free indeed" If we
properly set him before our scholars,
they win be made free from the slav-
cry of sin and enter into the freedom
