BOY CADETS AT THE CONGRESS.

Commanding-G General w. H. Craw-
ford of the National A. f. Cadet Move
ment and his general staff have issued
a general order for the Fifth Annual
Encampment Of the National A. f.
Cadets to be held at Alexandria, La
in connection with the thirteenth an
nual session Of the Sunday School Con.
gress. June 1917. Representatives OF
the Boy Cadet movement in every see
ton of the United States are expected
to be in attendance. Some Sunday
Schools will send an entire company
Perhaps several battalion bands will
DO in attendance. Boys in uniform
will be seen each day and the spirited
military discipline under religious in
fiuence will be injected into them as
never before. Nothing has proven SO
beneficial to the forward Sunday
School movement as the Boy Cadet
movement, which is part Of the Sun
day School Congress. Each Sunday
School may have as many companies
as they feel able to support. A book
of tactics with the bugle calls and
other information can be obtained
from the National Baptist Publishing
Board. In fact, how to organize a
company Of Cadets is told in a very
simple way in this book, which sells
for ten cents.

of fourteen pieces. These bands are
uniformed and especially we'll quail

every song that will be sung at the
Congress. They have been for the past
three years a part Of the great force
that created such favorable impression
in the rendition Of these sacred songs
through their sessions and that have
been conspicuous in the mammoth
street parade on Sunday afternoon.

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
meeting June 1917, in connection with
the Sunday School Congress. The d.
rectors Of these two classes with the
secretaries and their assistants
promise to elevate the Metoka and
Galeda class work to such position
that It will be sung throughout the civ
ilized world as the Sunday School
builder as a force that will keep the
people in the Sunday School, as a
drawing card to the college boy and
girl, who hitherto have found the Sun

Special stress will be laid upon the use
Of the Metoka and Galeda Magazine.

school forces and the 3. Y. P. U. work
ers. 1t was hailed with joy and delight.
Strong editorials by the leading denom-
national editors appeared in papers
throughout the country. Secular jour
nails declared it was beyond measure
the proper time and that the meeting
was calculated to do what no other
had done. 1t would, in other words, be
the little leaven in the loaf. So In June
1906, the movement was launched at
Nashville, Tenn. In 1907 1t met In
New Orleans, in 1908 in Jacksonville,
Fla; in 1909 at Nashville, Tenn.s' In
1910, Atlanta, Ca; 1911, Meridian,

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 a 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.

B. Y. P. U. DEPARTMENT AT
CONGRESS-.

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-
sionary feature, in fact B. Y. P. us
as they ought to be conducted will be
demonstrated.
SOCIOLOGICAL AND INDUSTRIAL
EDUCATION DEPARTMENT.
The newest department in the Con-
gress work is that of the Sociological
and Applied Industrial Education
While the theme has not been new the
department this year under this head
will be under the direction Of train
ed college professors who have made
a practical study in this partiular line
of intellectual uplift. At the ses.
sion of the Congress in Vicksburg, the
addresses that were delivered along
the lines of sociology and the discus
sions on the subjects listed stirred the
meeting beyond expectation. Addresses
were made, subjects discussed and
ideas brought out on sociology that
were instructive from the very begin
ming and which hepled materially ev-
cry attendant at the meeting.

SPECIAL SPEAKERS FOR THE
CONGRESS.

Oratory will flow as never before
at the Sunday School Congress this
year From the opening day, June
u, until the closing, June II, the work

and Galedas; on Boy Cadet night, elo-
quent utterances will be heard in the
interest of the BOWMAN by tending to
show what the boy is to our future
church life; on Sunday at II o'clock
a pulpit orator that is to make the Ne
gro Baptists immortal and for which
it is noted, will be heard as never be-
fore. The minister who is to grace
the rostrum on that morning for the
Congress sermon will, it is said, re-
deem the reputation of the younger
minister; while the Congress address
to be delivered at o'clock in the after

of an increase of Congress ofhcials,
national officers, state officials, local
workers and host of Sunday School
representatives and workers from
throughout the country. There VIII
be two brass bands, which are now
designated as the Sunday School Con-
gress bands and is in fact the second
regimental band connected with the

playing for this Sunday School Con-
gress parade. There will be the Boy
