Mof fatt, president bf Erskine college, spoke on the subject, "How Shall We Win More of Our Pupila to Christ." Sic spoke more especially ?o teachers an??, brought herao io them wlih great earnestness and forcibleness the great j responsibility of a Sunday school | teacher. Dr. Moffatt ls a speaker of j unusual ability and attractiveness and j always charms his hearer?. He speke ' first of the powerlessness of the I teacher In himself, ' but mentioned; one or two ways by which they could | propere themselves a* efficient teach-' er? and UIUB win their pupils to I Christ. The first essential was Scrip ture reading, of Ailing every" minute j of thc lesson hour with teaching thu,' b'ble. and net sllowing outside ln-"| fluences to interfere. Second. Pre paration. Ho likened the.teacher to a gardener planting lilies In his gar den-and spoke of toe care and at tention necessary-and then personal work and influence. These fonr re quisites to equip s teacher for her best and truest work. At night Dr. Carman spoke to a crowded house from the theme, "An Uncrowned Hero." Those who heard him in February in his address. "The Artist ot the Soul," wore prepared for the masterly cldrcsn of Sunday night He told first of incidents of daring courage and matchless bravery, when all the world looks on in awe. And then of those, the thousands pf ?ebie men and ?women who. In their quiet unknown lives are heroes and heroines in the grandest sense. "A daring, self forgetting, the nob lest call." He said the world needs strong men, brave men, men who Bad caught the vision of th? great broth erhood of man. He spoke with en thusiasm of the wonderful untried powers ot mind sud body and how God could lead a man out Into a great capacity for service, by a faith in himself and a faith in others. Ho gave* his hearer? a wonderful vision cf thc work that each one might do in thia service for their king. The other services for Sunday in cluded a conference and address by Mrs. S. N. Burts of Spartanburg, State superintendent of .elementary work, for all the Sunday school work ers. Mrs. Hurts understands thc work so thoroughly she makes it very in teresting and Instructive for her hear ers.
