of Benton, John Hartman of Hemlock, B.
II. Vannatta of Bloom, Aaron Andreas of
Mlfllln, W. A. Yetter of Catawissa and
Tho. Crcvcllng of Scott were named for
tho office of county commissioner.
W. H. Utt raised a question on creden
tlal,s, saying that none had been presented
by any delegates, and that there might be
a chance for chicanery. Ho evidently
hadn't much confidence in his party, even
In iho selection of a candidate for commis
sioner. After some debate tho convention
decided that thoso whose names were
hauded In wcro tho regular delegates uo-
less some contest was maue. A vote wus
takeu for commissioner by calling the
names of delegates, with tho following re.
suit, Stephens 7, Smith 5, Hartman 7, Van.
natta 0, Andrews 0, letter 17, Crcvcllng 0,
No nomination.
Second Ballot.
Andrews gained one vote, and Hartman
lost one: all thu others received tho same
as on first ballot.
Tliird Iiallot.
Tho namo of F. 8. Smith was dropped,
The result was as follows. Stephens 12,
Hartman 7, Vunnatta 4, Andrews 11, Yet
ter 17, "Groveling 0.
Fourth Jiallot.
Vannatta was dropped. Tho vote re
sulted as follows: Stephens 10, Hartman
0, Andreas, 12, Yetter 17. Crcvellne 0.
A motion was made to drop Hartman
and Creveling, and this led to somo wrang
ling. Thcte were a half dozen talking at
once, and tho chair refused to entertain
motion to adjourn for 11 vo minutes. Tho
chair dicidcd that another ballot would be
taken, and refused to put any motion. B.
J. Pealcr wanted to appeal from thu decis
ion of tho chair, but this was declared out
of order. For a few moments great con
fusion prevailed and thero was enough
noise over the ono littlu persimmon that
falls to tho lot of tho republican party
this county, to supply a llrnt class state
convention. When quiet was restored thu
fifth ballot was taken and resulted as fol
lows: Stephens 15. Hartman C, Andreas
13, Yetter 17, Crovellng 7.
Another motion was made to adjourn
for fifteen minutes, but tho chair refused
to entertain It or to allow au appeal from
his decision that it was out of order, and
another hubbub was created.
At this point J. J. Brown put In a word
for Andreas and appealed to tho conven.
tlon to nonilualu him because he was
"loyal soldier," but this did not havo the
desired effect. Tho sixth ballot stood,
Stephens 18, Andreas 13, Yetter 20, Crcvcl,

they feel glad of what they aro doing? If
they aro not devoid of all conscience, they
must feel ashamed. Need the Sunday

ltev. A. B. Ilooven, Messrs. Ell Bobbins,
E. M. Laubaugh. Cyrus Robblns, II. W.
Kline anu site. Annie Jicilcnry discussed
the following tonics.
First topic, " t he Jicst Method of Kecp
ng Order." Have a well defined urogram
for tho school and havo time limited for
everything Each teacher ought to oxer
else Inlluenco over his or her class and rc
tain order in tho class. Teacher sit with
class. Try to make the lesson interesting
or tuc class win nmuso tuemselves in somo
othei way. Supt. mako pcncral remarks.
It teachers cu-opcrato with tho Supt. order
can bo maintained.
Second tonic. "Obligations which At
tach to the Teacher." The teacher should
feel It his duty always to be present If pos.
slble. Fray for the salvation of his schol
ars. Whatever duty he finds, tho best way
to dispose of It Is to perform it. If the
scholars aro irregular in their attendance.

journcd till 2:00 p. in.
1 lie nf lei noon session was opened at
2:00 p. m. by music. E. M. Laubach, Pres.
u the chair. Third topic. "Should Schol-
nr on Rewarded." f-cbolars should be re-
winded for everything they do, especially
ine smaller ones, it promotes attendance.
Children do not act so much from duty as
from compensation. Reward them for at
tendance, for perfect recltntions, for recit
ing scripture, und for getting scholars Into
school. It Is not the pay that docs the
good so much as the thing itself.
Fourth topic, "Tho best Method of Pre.
paring tho Lesson." Take the Bible and
lesson leaf or question book on Sunday af.
ternoon or evening and sludv the lesson fur
the following Sabbath, not a final prepara
tion, ior tuc lesson suouia uo studied dur
ing tbo whole week nt intervals. Read
home reading, l'cruse notes and questions.
Write out the answers. Or tako eacli verse
separately and study it carefully, after
wards taKe up uiiterenl commentaries and
try la gel an the information you can bear
Ing on the lesson. Systematize tbe work
if ill topic, 'Obligations of every Chris.
tlan to tho Suuday School Work." Every
follower of the Lord has a work to do In
Hie Sunday school. But few adults attend
tho Sunday school. If you aro not quail
lied to bo a teacher bo a scholar. Encour
age tho school by your presence. Work
wteJever your' slices arcSd Church
members should work together. Do not see
how a Christian can get along without worl
ing in the Sunday school. Christ did not
confine himself to adults. Tho church is
feehug tbo importance of this work.
Blxtn topic, "tjhouia Teachers Inquire
after the Absence of their Scholars?" Thi
question should be answered in the affir
mative. Parents who send their children
but do not attend the Sunday school them-
selves, aro often broucht Into tho Sunday
school and church in this way. It is not
always great causes that lead to great re.
suits. Under somo circumstances it is
very dllucult to approach children. No.
tico little scholars. Take more interest In
them. Speak kindly to them. They
predate tt.
