the source of great inspiration and
information on Svfrlday^. School idoals
and work. It is confidently hoped that
the Sunday School may soon hare !
at least 75 per cent of its teaching
force holding normal diplomas.
The Junior department will soon
be fully graded-and beginning with
January the graded literature will
be used. This b a splendid step forward
in making the Sunday School
the efficient means of the church in
teaching as it 6hould be.
The pastor is planning to lead a
class as the ^Normal Manual" < as
soon.as a sufficient number signify,
a willingness to take this work. :The j
plan is to meet once a week and take
about two chapters at a lesson, thus
completing, the course, in four months
A course of this kind should appeal
Btrongly to all those who really desire
to be better teachers or who wish
to know the Bible more adequately.
