THURSDAY, 10 A. M. Devotional exercises were conduct ed by Rev. C. H. Herbst, of West Hazleton. The roll of delegates was called by Rev. C. H. Brandt. Rev. D. W. Donat, of Wapwallopen, in a neat address stated the object of this convention. He said this convention was called in accordance with a renuest from the General Sunday School Board. It is in tne line 01 tne movement to increase the efficiency of the Sunday school. Therefore, all are asked to give tneir neany co operation to every work that may be undertaken to advance its interest. The snhieet. " The Advantaee of j - r - cj Local Sunday School Conventions,' was discussed bv Rev. Geo. S. Sorber, nf Watsontown. In sul stance he said that in the arrangement of the program for a convention subjects of vital importance are selected ; and by discussing these new zeal is incited and good results must follow. The subject was further discussed by Rev. Noll, tiaer Koenig, K.ev. uranar, Rev. Masonheimer and Elder Balliet. THURSDAY, 2 P. M. The convention opened with prayer hv Rev. A. M. Masonheimer, of Weatherlv. The topic, "The Sunday Schoo Teacher's Influence," was taken up bv Elder M. N. Koe as follows : The teacher's influence is a powerful one. By word and ex amole ha can inculcate a spuit o chaiitv and a devotion for God's cause which will otten manliest itseii in times and places not expected. Revs. Sorber, Schoedler, Brandt and Rufus Miller also spoke bneliy on this topic. Rev. D. E. Schoedler, o 1 urbot- ville, then read a paper on "The nndav Srhool Muse." The Christian hvmns are intended for worship. Great care should be taken as to what kind f hvmna are admitted into our hvmn mnts. Mnnv nvnins are written ana arranged only for theatrical effect, for extollinir the Sunday school or the history of the church : and as these detract rather than elevate, they should be rejected without ceremony. Kev. Aaron inoii, oi iiazieion, spoke on ' The Relation of the Pastor to the Sunday School." The pastor if possible should attend every session of the Sunday school. However, it is not best for him to be the Super intendent, nor to teach except at times as a substitute. He should supervise the whole school rather than give his attention to one particular branch. The discussion was con tinued by Elder Wm. II. Balliet, of Limestoneviile, Revs. Schoedler, Alspach, Noli, Brandt, Mr. F. P. Billhime, Ira Mann and C. . bhatter. THURSDAY, 7:30 P. M. The convention opened with an anthem by the choir. Devotional exercises were conducted by Rev. Aaron Noll. " The Advantage the Sunday School Affords for the Cultivation of the Spirit of Benevolence," by Rev. C. B. Alspach, of Danville, was discussed as follows : 1 his subject is a very important one. With the develop, ment of the spirit ot benevolence we take out of the child every feeling of selfishness. We have been teaching the child to give far the support of the school itself. This is a mistake. All that the Sunday school gives should go for benevolence, and the congregation should support the Sunday school. Rev. H. E. ones, financial becre tarv of Utsinus College, also spoke on this topic. He said the spirit of benevolence depends .upon training, and if this is not done in childhood and vouth it never will be done, and hence the Sunday school affords the best place for this. A motion song entitled " ine Clock " was then sung by a class of Tall at the Coi.umuian office and get a handsome calendar for 1895 We give them away to adults, tf. girls, and was much appreciated by the entire auoience. Rev. Rufus W. Miller. General Sec retary of the Sunday School Board, was then lntrodu-'ed, who spoke on the Sunday schoo! motto of our church, " All the church in the bunday school. All the bundav school in the churcn. All for Christ." 1 he otnect 01 this motto is to arouse enthusiasm for the Sunday school. The Sunday school is the church assembled, and there fore, all should be in the same. When - - 7 1 the parents will attend the Sunday school, then also will the children school is the place to study Gods word for the nurDOse of leading . the children to Christ. The best members of the church are those who are re ceived at an early age. In Christ s name then let us work. After this a duet was sung by A. N Yost. Esq. and Miss Nellie Ent, which called forth much praise The session closed wun peneaicuon by Rev. Miller. FRIDAY, 9:30 A. M. Convention opened with devotional bv Rev. F. H. Fisher, of TYinville. The tonic. What Relation Should the Consistory Sustain to the Sunday School." was discussed by Rev. D. E Krhoert er. 1 his Question may dc answered in a sense by another, What relation does the congregation bear to the Sunday school ? Years ago the Sundav school was recarded as sepa . ' - . . :i rate lrom the congregation, ano 11 mis is true the consistory nas noimng 10 do with it. However, this is no long er held. While great freedom should be allowed the Sunday school, as a part of the congtegatton, the con- history bhould have a supervisory power - I.

Heilman, of the Lutheran church, entered and was invited to a seat as art advisory member. Rev. A. Houtz, of Urangevilie, next snnl-e nn "The Work of the S1111d.1v School in the Training of the Child ren tor the cnurcn. in suostanoe he said training is characteristic of all work. This is true of the church. The church is sometimes called an army, and this suggests organization and discipline. There are duties in the church lor which none are fitted imloaa trained for them. The train. ing of the Sunday school should be of such a nature as to cover all the duties of the church and the Christian lite. The question box was in charge of Rev. H. A. I. Benner, of Freeland. Many questions were propounded and answered in a satisfactory manner. Under the item of business the fol lowing resolutions were adopted : An overture to the Sunday School Board of General Synod : Whereas, There is a growing de sire on the part of our schools for a Sunday school hymnal adapted to the life and genius of the Reformed church, and Whereas, The Sunday School Board of the General Synod, by virtue of the fact that the general interests of our schools are committed to their care, are the proper parties to consider the subject of the hymns of the schools and to provide for such needs ; there fore, Resolved. That this Classical Sun- day School Convention of Wyoming Classis hereby respectfully overtures the Sunday School Board of the Gen eral Svnod. if at all practicable, to prepare a suitable manuscript copy of a Reformed Sunday school hymnal, using the Reformed church hymnal as the basis, with a view to presenting it at the next meeting of General Synod.
