INTERESTING PAPER
ON SUNDAY SCHOOLS.
AS A CHARACTER-BUILDER FOR
CHILDREN THERE CAN BE NO
BETTER TRAINING.
Following is the paper prepared
and read by Miss Lillian Salters
at Union Rally Day exercises, held
at Union church, Salters, on Wednesday.
August 7, but received too
late for publication last week:
THE SUNDAY-SCHOOL AS A CHARACTER-BUILDING
FORCE.
The fact that you are here today
shows me that you are interested in
C.'ir.^au.ertVirx-.le Kilt VlAU,' flppn JS VOllT
U UUUftJ 'OVUVVIU, W v. V t.v? v.v?r
interest? Do you, who are parents,
feel that it is necessary to the development
of your child? Perhaps
the dearest wish of every parent's
heart is to have his children "make
good" in the best sense of the word
?to have them develop into the
best men and women,mentally, morally
and physically, and to this end
you are striving. Perhaps you are
making sacrifices that they may
I have the best mental and physical
training, but are you neglecting the
moral and religious training that
will give them the greatest of all
human assets, a beautiful Christian
character? The world today is asking
for men of character to fill positions
of honor and trust. Are we
seeing to it that the children of our
community are being prepared to
take their place in the battle of life?
"The child is father to the man"
in character as well as physical de
velopment, and for that reason we
should stand invincibly for his right
to be properly taught. The younp
children in our midst need our help
first by example and then by precept.
Let us look at the period of early
childhood and try to discover the
psychological situation. When the
child comes into the world his consciousness
is a blank, he has to master
every detail of the world aboul
him, but owing to his inherent instincts
and tbe plastic condition ol
his brain and mind he quickly forms
percepts and concepts and reaches
out in eager expectancy to discover
relationships of all kinds. He now
acquires hi3 ideas of the world
about him, of himself and of God.
Froebel, the man who has done
more for little children than any
other educator, says, "The care oi
the life of a child's inner and
higher feeling, disposition and ideas
belongs certainly to the most delicate,
and yet, the most important
and difficult part of his nature.
From it springs all and develops all
that is highest and noblest in the
life of the individual and the race,
and ultimately all religious life
which is at one with God in disposition,
thought and deed."
Early childhood is the period of
formation of habits that endure a
lifetime; habits that involve and endanger
such important principles as
truthfulness and honesty. The mind
of the child is ever open to receive
all impressions, and once received
they can never be entirely obliterated.
We all know it is rare that
a person has enough force of will
and determination to offset influences
brought to bear in early
childhood. The mind and heart of
the child is like a delicate instrument
that responds to and indelibly
registers all impressions.
Again Froebel says, "You must
keep holy the being of the little
child. Protect it from every rough
and rude impression, every toucn 01
the vulgar; a touch, a look, a sound,
is often sufficient to inflict savage
wounds. A child's soul is more tender
and vulnerable than the finest
and tenderest plant."
This is a psychological fact, and
one that ought to make us, on the
one hand, fearful of our responsibility
of example and teaching, and,
on the other hand, joyful because of
the opportunity to make an endur/
ing impression for the good of the
child and the glory of God. Let us
then take advantage of our opporitunity
and present and clinch the
facts of the religious world through
the church and Sunday-school. Let
us watch his environment to the extent
of our power, removing the
things that would dwarf him in soul
and body, and bringing him in contact
w;th all forces that contribute
to the making of the highest type of
individual.
J am sure you will all agree that
one of the best means of training
children is through the Sundayschool.
There is an old maxim that
says that a child is made or marred
I at the age of six, ana tnere is a
good deal of truth in it. If this is
the case, then it seems that the sensible
thin? to do is to get hold of
him before he is that age and interest
and hold him all his life. There
is no doubt about this?the Sundayschool
can hold him for one reason,
and that is because Jesus Christ is
presented, and He is the vitalizing
force that will keep him. The most of
us are concernedjenough about our
| business and we are very positive , %
about the children attending scnooi j
every day without fail. Should we 7
not let them see that we are equally |
in earnest about Sunday-school? It
isn't much of a task to make them
go, for as a rule they like it. Give T
the youngster a chance and there is
enough of the divine in him to do
the rest. He may not understand : F
all his teacher says, but later in life
it will flash across his "inward eye" I
as a light to lighten up the dark A
places of life.
Let us be sure of the fact that
every child in our community has a
chance to study the Bible under ei
competent teachers and to grow up w
in the power and shadow of God's jV
wonderful love and grace. Give
them a chance to inhibit ideas of si
vice and worthlessness with ideas of
right living and right thinking.
"But," you say, "the average 0]
Sunday-school does not meet these c<
needs." Well, why not? The aver- S
aire Sundav-school is made by the
average citizen. You are the aver- c
age citizen, and if your Sunday- D
school does not meet your needs it ^
ought to be a clarion call to duty g
for every man and woman in that m
community to do some hard thinking
and some hard working to see that
it does fill the place it was intended
to fill.
Miss Salters' paper was so excel- T
lent that the congregation decided
unanimously to request The County
Record to publish it. W.
BANK OF HEMINGWAY.
New Financial Institution Opens
With Bright Prospects. j
Hemingway, August 19:?The h
Bank of Hemingway was formally "
; opened on Thursday, August 15,with n
( a capital of 15,000 dollars. The de- t
posits the first day were approxi|
mately $3,500. The officers of the g
t bank are: W C Hemingway, presi- v
[ dent; F E Huggins, vice president; b

Messrs W C Hemingway, J E Hem- ?
! ingway, F E Huggins, H L Baker, t
' H E Eaddy, N M Venters, J M G a
t Eaddy, John Richardson, W C Rol- b
' lins. The directors and stock hold- |
( ers expressed great satisfaction at t
. the way things opened up on the B
r first day. This bank will fill a long "
I felt want among the people of this ^
section. The business men and promoters
of Hemingway and business
, men of the surrounding county are
r elated over the prospects of increas- "
i ed business to be derived from the
( establishment of a bank in their j
midst.

A vast amount of ill health is due
to impaired digestion. When the
stomach fails to perform its func- dj
dons properly the whole system be- o'
comes deranged. A few doses of jji
Chamberlain's Tablets is all you q1
need. They will strengthen your di- d
gestion, invigorate your liver and
regulate your bowels, entirely doing ?
away with that miserable feeling due n,
to faulty digestion. Try it. Many
others have been permanently cured ^
