GENERAL CONVENTION PASTORS
WISH TO EXPLAIN.

The leaders of the General Baptist
Convention residing in Dallas and
vicinity adopt this method OF. ex-
planning our position with reference
to the organization of our city min
listers union. Firstly, we believe it
our duty to maintain a General Con-
yention Union because we feel that
our congregations will be afforded
ample opportunity to know our po-
sition on certain matters which ma
turally divide us from our brethren
of other conventions both state and
national. We have the very highest
respect for our other brethren, be-
lieve them to be sincere Christian
gentlemen, but since we do not think
alike on certain phases of our de-
nominational life, we feel that it
would not be right to embarass them
nor ourselves by efforting to put for
ward propaganda on which we can
never agree; hence our own organiza-
ton.
The General Convention Union will
hold its next session with Mt. He
bron Baptist church of which the
Rev. r. w. Shaw, Is pastor on Main
street, near Crowdus, Tuesday after
the second Sunday in November. At
which time a special program will
be carried out, one Of the features of
which is scripture lesson to be
taught by DR.. VIM. Johnson of the
Mt. Rose Baptist church: subject
THE Deacon's Office as Taught in
the Scriptures" The public is in
vited. Session begins at IL a. M, to
1890 p. m. preaching at night.

so that whether in Boston, Chicago or

Is a collection of report cards from at
least twenty States. These cards vary
not only in size but also in subject
matter. Therefore. when a parent
moves from one school district to an
other. or changes residence in viii
lage, town or city, he frequently must
begin to wrestle with a new form OF
report card. During the last half
decade, however, there has been a
radical improvement. and gradual
Standardization is being accomplished.
Every report card sent for the
parents inspection should show clear
ly the following particulars:

deserves the careful inspection OF both
parents. but usually it is better to
have the father actually sign the card.
This insures the cooperation of both
heads OF the household, for while the
mother will probably know about the
card anyhow, the father will have no
definite knowledge of its poor or bad
features unless he is made to sign it.
An angry father once came to my
Office TO complain of the non- gradua-

class. Upon looking UP the pupils re-
port card 1t was found to have &C"
unsatisfactory in effort" and EFF
ficiency" for the previous five months.
The father professed ignorance OF the
facts, and said he had never seen the
card before. He was then shown his
signature as found on the card each
month, but stlll he disclaimed all re-
sponsibility, Upon inquiry we found
that the lad had been afraid to show
the father the report card at the end
Of the first month and had persusde
the bookkeeper of his fathers store to
sign in his fathers place. There was
no Improvement each month. so the
fraudulent practice was continued, as
both the bookeeeper and the boy were
afraid to confess the forgery. The
father left my office with fire in his
eye. a penitent boy by his side. and a
few minutes later the bookkeeper re-
ceived his merited rebuke.

new conductors brought out at the
first concert Edgar Varese, who had
been in this country for several years,
but had never before come before
the public in such post. The sec
ond concert was conducted by Mr..
Bodansky, who has been at the Metro
politan Opera House since 1915. His
success at this concert was so great
that the directors of the orchestra i'm
med!ately set out to secure his services
as conductor for the concerts of the

interference of Otto II. Kahn that
he was allowed to accept the conduc-
torship OF the concerts for next sea-
son. So New York will hear the ef-
forts OF q new conductor next year
