Details of the plan by which the
Sunday schools of this city and vicin-
ity can aid in practical work for the
nation have been brought here by
Mrs. Ada Simpson Sherwood of Ober-
lin, Ohio. Mrs. Sherwood has just
returned from the ten days training
school of the international Sunday
School Association, held each sum-
mer at Conference Point, Lake Gene
va, Wisconsin. "The international
Association and the various denomin-
ational boards working in cooperation
do not contemplate the setting up of
any additional machinery" said Mrs.
Sherwood" If we can get, for ex-
ample, the 100000 men in organized
adult classes to undertake the pro-
posed program, it will mean much
for the nation and our soldiers. De-
tails of the suggestions will be sent
to the schools by the proper agencies.
In brief, it is suggested that the Sun
day school members join the Red
Cross, help make needed supplies,
make lists of enlisted men of the con-
gregations, and cooperate with the Y.
M. c. A. and with chaplains. The
promotion of economy and thrift will
also be heavily stressed" The Lake
Geneva Training School is an inter
national institution, many of the 2S6
students in attendance coming from
Canada. Practically every state of
the Union is represented. The school
is organized as any professional
school, with four years course lead
ing to graduation. The twenty-eight
instructors are drawn from all de-
nominations and are specialists in the
various phases of Sunday school work
The Lake Geneva school is the only
one of its sort in the country.

MARY PAULINE STEVENS.

Mary Pauline Bolton-Stevens was
born January 9th, 1889, near Coopers-
town, Otsego County, New York.
She was of english descent. She was
married to Charles Stevens, and lived
her early married life in New York
State. Later they moved to Penn
sylvania and later to Michigan. She
has lived in this vicinity some thirty
five years, and thirty years in the
home in which she passed away.
She was the mother of four child
rem, Joel and Amos, who now reside
in Battle Creek; and Mrs. Ella Show
erman and Charles Stevens of this
place. She is survived also by two
sisters who live in the east, Mrs.
Ellen Wilsey, and Mrs. Julia Hollo-
way. She has two nephews, in adj
dition to these, Fred and Roy Stevens
of Battle Creek.
Mrs. Stevens united with the Bap-
fist church in her early girlhood. She
was one of those good home women,
who cared little for the outside life
of the world, but who lived her life in
the joys of home and in the care of
her children. AS this good and loving
mother so patiently made a home for
her children, so now she has gone at
last to the Home prepared for her.
She has long been a most patient
and hopeful sufferer, but early Fri
day morning, July goth, death came
bringing its merciful relief. To the
sorrowing ones the sincere sympathy
and love of many friends is offered.
