MODEL SUNDAY SCHOOL AT
CONGRESS.

Hundreds of we'll organized Sunday
schools that have made enviable re-
cords for work accomplished could be
improved If some representative of
these different schools could spend one
session at the Sunday School Congress
in Model Sunday School such as is
conducted each year at the Sunday
School Congress if they could see how
the classes are taught if they knew
how the pupils were managed, II they
could come in touch with the teaching
forces, if they could hear the inspir-
ing music rendered, if they only
knew the amount of mentality that
is employed by Sunday school experts
in making the Model Sunday School
an occasion for actual observation of
students of the Sunday school work,
they would come to Alexandria and
become a student or teacher in this
Model Sunday School. The entire ses-
sion is devoted to the helpful instruc-
tions and all of the talent that is avail
able at the meetings is put to work.
