The primary department of the Sec
ond Presbyterian Sunday school has
grown so in the past few years that
their rooms have proven inadequate
so the men of the church have come
forward and fitted up .arge and COM
modious quarters for them in the
basement of the church. All the nee
essary furniture to make the rooms
comfortable and pleasant has been
provided and all the up to date meth
DDS of kindergarten adopted. Mrs r.
NJ Campbell is superintendent of this
department and Miss Margaret Morns
is the teacher of the infant class. Miss
Morns has devoted much thought and
study to the work and the other Sun
day conducted a very interesting les
son on Moses and his adoption by
Pharaoh's daughter. in which every
detail was ViSualiZed for the little tots.
The river was represented by blue pa
per covered with glass, the trees were
little twigs placed at intervals in the
sand, Pharaoh's daughter and her at
PENDANTS were paper figures while the
infant Moses was tiny doll in a small
basket. This way of impressing the
lesson on the minds of these little peo-
pie was most effective and it is need
less to say that they will long remem-
Der the story of Moses and the bull
rushes. The children of the primary
class are much interested in their
Sunday school and on Rally Day con-
trIbuted their part to the service by
their singing, for which they had been
carefully trained by Mrs. Campbell.
