The method Of review must largely
be determined by the teacher and the
grade of the class. For the junior
and intermediate grades a good way
will be to make it biographical, cen
tering In Gideon, Eli, Samuel, ELS
sons, Saul and David. OF course, the
outstanding personality is Samuel.
For the older classes the following
from Peloubets Select Notes is an in

only, will deal with difficult questions
involved in or suggested by the vari-
Gus lessons Of the quarter, questions
that you may not have had time to
discuss adequately during the quar-

among them. The following list Of
topics may prove helpful, but 1t is
intended to be only suggestive:

our state and national government.
Lesson II. How to utilize better than
we are doing the power Of women.

A plan which can be adapted to all
grades is the gathering Of the main
facts of each lesson and then stating
it's leading lesson.

the leading lessons:
