Congress Movement.
The aim of the Sunday School Con-
gress is to build front line Sunday
Schools, to advance modern Sunday
School methods, foster Sunday School
missions and help on the plan Of child
evangelism. More than perhaps some
workers have been accustomed to hear
has been the assertion that the aim and
purpose of the Sunday School Congress
was for building front line Sunday
Schools. This has been proven by the
constant and steady growth Of the for
ward Sunday School movement from
the time the Sunday School Congress
was first launched to the present. Ev'
cry indication is pointing to the fact
that nothing that has been started In
the past decade has proven greater
force for good than the present for
ward movement. A veritable coming
together of workers from every por
ton of the United States where they
spend the better part Of the week In
real Sunday School Of Methods has
been considered by the Sunday School
workers and acknowledged by Sunday
School experts, attested by devout min
listers of the gospel, as the little leaver
in the loaf. The attendance OF the
Sunday School, therefore, it would
seem has been on the increase since
the very beginning and from thu
amount of enthusiasm shown at eacf
and every session there will be nj
abatement-no, not one backward

WHEN AND WHERE THE SUNDAY
SCHOOL CONGRESS HAS MET.
Thirteen years ago in June the nrst
session of the Sunday School Congress
was held. When the announcement
| went forth that the movement had peeh
launched for the benefit OF the SUNDAY
school forces and the B. Y. P. U. work
ers, It was hailed with Joy and delight.
Strong editorials by the leading oenom-
national editors appeared IN payers
throughout the country. Secular Jour-
nails declared It was beyond measure
the proper time and that the meeting
was calculated to do what no otner
had done. 1t would, in other words, De

are they doing?" is problem that this
department is taking up, taking the
child as soon as it is given name and
keeping up with that child until it
is able to be turned over to primary
department of the Sunday School. The
work of the Cradle Roll and Infant
Department, while new to some of the
Baptist schools, has become so impor-
tant that special superintendent Of
this work have been designated in
many schools. At the Congress this
year one competent, one well train
ed, assisted by those who have had
actual experience will tell how to con-
duct the Cradle Roll and Infant De-
partment in the various schools.

ION, On Metokas and Galedas" is
the title of the Metoka and Galeda
song that will be the watchword Of
these two organized classes in their

B. Y. P. u. DEPARTMENT AT

A longfelt want was supplied when
it was announced that the B. Y. P. U.
Societies would have a department in
the coming Congress. B. Y. P. U. or
CARNATIONS throughout the United
States who send representatives to
the Alexandria session of the Congress
will have the advantage Of all the
instructions in the B. Y. P. U. work
that can be given out by practical ex-
perts and B. Y. P. U. workers. Every
department of the B. Y. P. U. will be
carefully gone into. The Christian
Culture Course, the Reading Course,
the devotions, the literature, the mis-

SOCIOLOGICAL AND INDUSTRIAL
EDUCATION DEPARTMENT.
The newest department in the Con

While the theme has not been new the
department this year under this head
will be under the direction Of train

practical study in this particular line
of intellectual uplift. At the ses

addresses that were delivered along
the lines of sociology and the discus

the belief that the district quota Of

Chicago subscriptions in excess OF

totaIling $7,000,000. Purchases Of $50

was said, that no attempt had been
made to estimate the total.
Reports from elsewhere in the
seventh district. 1t was stated, were
gratifying. Forty out Of ninety mine
counties in Iowa reported as having
exceeded their quota. Similar re-
ports came from Michigan. Wiscon-
