Local Committee hg 4 d made such
complete arrangemeas, that nothing
4cmed lacking to make this gather':
ing of
.the S. S. workers of this
tate, of the greatest interest and
'refit.
..The meetings were held in the St.
Paul's - ,Luthertui Church, the hirgest
and most commodious church edifice
in the - city: - I.At the . very first session
over 400 delegates reported them
selves-; but before. the convention
closed, more than six hundred were
in attendance: 'This large delegation,
together *ith the large attendance of
tho citizens; gave us crowded congro
gatiens.
The first session opeue . •

the usual devotional exercises, the
Aisne was occupied' o'clock in
hearing reports from the different
counties. Although only a trifle over
one-half of the counties are reported
yet, it was Manifest that the S. S.
work was making good improvement.

following is a brif digest :
• I. Much bad teaching, lecafise‘
there - is such poor Fitkparation.. The
preparation needed :
1...1 good understanding of the
subject to be taught ; tealier • mind
have thought. \
2. A firm belief in the subject ;
teacher must be fully persuad \ ed in
his own mind,.
3. Mast feel the importance of
what he teaches.
4. Teacher must use the siniples
language, and make free use of op
proprinte illustrations.
11. How to acquire this Prepara
Lion :
1. By an earnest study of God's
Word ; compare scripture with scrip
ture : the scriptures explain them'
selves.
2. Use all the help within reach :
commentaries, tible histories, eta
Have teachers' meetings by all means,
led by the pastor, Or Superintendent.
3. Prayer, for God's enlightening;
quickening power. Ask God to help
us to take the youth into our own
hearts ; then we can impress it on
other hearts. Prayer is the Alpha
and pmega in a S. S. teacher's pre-
paration
Second Subject for the evening
" Spiritual power in our work." Spir•
itual power ; what is it? It is the
spirit in the heart, Christ in the soul,
God in tire man, anima, ing his
thonght„ breathing in • his words.
Other things being equal, ho who has
the most of Christ in him Will be the
most successful S. S. worker. And
all S. S. workers should aim to pos.:
thi- Divine lovel—this spiritual
bap4.lsm from above.

2. When we come to feel our need,
then offer David's prayer, (51 Ps.)
"Create in me a clean - heart," etc.,
" Restore unto me the joy," etc.;
"then will I teach." Wo must have
the clean heart," the " right spirit,"
the of salvation ; must have the
Pentecostal baptism of the Iroly
Spirit.
Wednesday morning, 9, A. ig?—
Opening exercises, reports from
counties not heretofore heard from.
The subject, " Benevolence in S. S.,
was then taken up and discussed
ably. Ilany ways of raising money
employed in the S. S. not to be com
mended. The_object sought after is
not merely the raising of so much
money. The most; important thing
is the development of the spirit of
benevolence among the children.
1. Therefolv, children must give
intelligently, know.for what they are
giving, and what comes of it.
2. Should. give „regularly, ^a)3 they
*could do any Christian duty. '
3. Should, be taught 'to practice
self-Clenial, that they may be able to
give ; the most\of the candy-money
should be secured' to the Lord's trea
sury. [And so it' might be said of
the money spent for tobacco, etc..]

G. Should be taught by the eiam
ple:of teachers and parents.
After Ole discussion of the above,
the importance of ilounty and town
S. S. Associations was considered.
Some important questions were -an
swered by the President,.
At this time a Mr. Stevens. was in
troduced to the Convention, who was
87 years of age and who had been in
the S. S. work 73 consecutive years.
Seven more members of the Conven
tion had been in the work over 50
years. Many aktusing incidents were
related of the Sunday Schools of 50
years ago. ,
Wednesday afternoon, 2 o'clock.
After opening exercises, the subject,
"Shall we eipoct the early conver
tion of the children ?" tas the the7MO
for discussion : -
1. A great error to -,let the devil"
and this wicked world have the first
training of the children.
2—Also, that children cannot at an
alp age unplerstand the plain re
quirements Of the Bible. Christ
plainly teacheS that the child of the
Christian parent should be trained
from
,the cradle for Hie Kingdom. It
does not improve children to allow
their early years to be spent in wan- ,
,dering from Christ. - It is not good
policy to lot them go - in the service
of the Wicked One during the years
of childhood, at the risk of .winning
them back to God. in youth's and
manhood's years.. •
Parents' and teachers should ex
pect and labor for the immediate
conversion of children ; this should
be the first aim of the- teacher• with
reference.to every scholar. Children
of irreligious parents depend on the
S. S. for religious culture. Facts
prove that many wicked parents have
been reached through.their children.
If we have faith in God's promises,
in the power of the truth, in our own
efforts blessed of the Lord, we may
toil, expec 'ng great results in the
salvation o the children.
Dr. Hu hens then addressed the.
Convention on theAnbject of temper
ance as connected with S. Schools.
The points made were :
• 1. The vast amount spent for in
toxicating drink in the land.
2. Thbterriblo amount of woe and
misery brought on the people thro'
this curse.
1. Our only relief total abstinence
and prohibition: 13 t as habit is so
strong, onr main hope id removing
tho evils of intemperance from the'
land, is in the rising generation. We
.niust pledge and thoroughly educate
the children in the, temperance prin
ciples. Begin early, at hope and in
the S.S.; then be persevering in this
one- thing, aMI final sucecs.- would
yet crown tine efforts 'Of' the temper
ance army.
- Some remarks were then Ina . (l by
the President., -ou the managetheht of
S. Schools, and the way of Making
things entertaining and profitable to
the children, and the session closed.
Duriiipthe-day it was announced
that 'soine Oaristian ladies had sug
gested to the committee of arrang4i
ments the proprie . ty of planting-, in
the church-xarii , ail evergreen tree to
commeinorate th.h.; - grand S. S. Con
-vention.
Therefore,j at G o'elocli. there was, a
large gathering for l tnur
is ppose. !if-.
ter appropriate singing - . find prayer,
President Peltztnade a telling speech,
the suhstancelof which is the following
The erection of memorials is a cus
tom as old as the history of man. A
memorial tree was very appropriate.
It:was a thing of life. It was a beau:
tifnl emblem of our S. S. institution:
A tree not merely lives, 'bat lives to
grow ; so with the S. 8: 'lt lives and
grows for the benefit Of , others. So
it is, or should be, with all our S.
Schools. But this is an evergreen
tree • and )3o should all our S. Schools
be-;they Ashouid not be dried up by
the heat ofjthe summer, nor chilled
by the blasts of wine& 'But this
tree will finally pass away ; and so
will all things earthly ; so shalt we..
But we may so live as to readily
transfer our thoughts to that 'tree
that grows by the river Of life in the
world to- come. alien here let ns
around this tree, pledge ourselves
anew to make the'S. S. cause grow
and be more a thing of life and btau
ty and blessing to the world.
was then sung, while the' tree was
put in its place, after which Mr. Ste
vers, the oldest S..S.sworker, put in.
the first shovelful of dirt. Then the
officers of "the Convention each, used
the shovel, and finally in ,tarn . came
ieprc,:seritatives from the different
counties. - Thus the tree was •plauted,
where it rcmain3 to remind all who
may Kly its'history, of this S. S.
gatheriug, itud where it will remain
au emi)lem of the err-growini.; im
portaui,e.of the S.-work. 1
IVed . .!: , e.E•day -- Evening.—After the'
opening exercises, the subject of
tinar.e6 was prei.cntetl - by the finance
committee, when it was- proposed to
raise ; $.5,000 for the use of the Associ
ation for the next year. Nefu.. i ly one
half - of the amonnt.was raised direct-
ly by voluntary subscription. A good
part of the balance was arranged for
by delegates from different counties.
After this matter- was disposed of,
the subject of temperance was again
brought up, the Rpv. 0. L. Gibson,
of Towanda, opening the discussion.
He was followed by other S.. ,
Rev. Mr. Gibson's points were :
Miserable policy to , empower mag
istrates of the law, to license men to
do that, which resulted in making
people so utterly lawless. We need
right lsws, prohibition laws ; but
then we Must have the people edu;
cated up to the right point, or the'
laws would be useless. Our hope is
in the children. Wcnst be earnest
and thoron,ghin educating thin in
the principles•of temperance.
Mr. ai.'"Kingsbnry, of Philadelphia,
stated that $15,0°0,000, was spent . '
annually in that city for liquor. We
could not;expect to do' much with
those who now drink ; our work was
with, the young.
Rew , 3tr. Weiss, of Pittston, en
deavored ttoshow the, ladies their in
fluenoe.and responsibility in remov
ing this terrible evil from the land. ,
Thursday morning:—This session
Hires devoted to memorial service in
Fairview Cemetery, to Commemorate
the name of the late Mr. Moyer, the
leading pioneer 8. B. worker in Le
high county. • .
"Shall we gather at rivgr?"
ME
• • r
e
At an early hour the: different S.
Scheols of the city assembled at four
of the most central churches: These
different gatherings were 'ably ad*,
dressed by silbeakers appointed. Be
ing near to the M. E. Church, wo at
tended at that place. The speakers
here were Rev. G. A. Pella, of Phibi-
delphia, and Rev. 0. L. Gibson, of
towanda. Both of these gentlemen
know how tot talk to children. We
presume that the audience assembled
here, thought. they : - bad the best
speakers of the Convention ; and
probably they thought so at each of
the other places of 'gathering..
At about 10 o'clock the procession
formed on Water street, and soon
after reac..bed the ground. Here we
found a bisutiful monument„ on
.
which were the following irieei-ip
tions : - -
1. The name of the dece mod, 4go,
and date of his death.
2. "Erected by the S. Schools of
Lehigh county."
' 3. First President of the Pc.44V
Association."
. 4. "Superintendent of St,,' Paul's."
After the opening exercises an ad
dress was delivered by the chairman
of the committee which had been ap
pointed to secure the erection of the
monument. '
He stated the amount given by
each S.'S.. in the county, and then
told is how two generous hearted
bankers of the city had supplied the
balance of the money needed.
- After the conclusion of his speech,
the President of the Convention then
addressed Um vast audience• in• a
manner appropriate to the occasion
and worthy of the man whose name
he wished to embalm in the minds
of the. people.
The German portion of the audi
ence were also' addressed in. their
olyn language. -The Speaker' endea
vored to impress_ upon • those who
could understand him, the grand
truth—how much God will honor
those who aim- to honor him. He
honors,them iu life, in death, and
'will honor them in the world to
come.
At close c)fhe speaking, the
S..B..cliilfilren, -where Mr. Moyer had
been so long Superintend:lnt, came
and Covered his grave, with tlower.4.
At the request of the widow and chil
dren of the deceased, his favorite
hymn', commencing, .
161134 of nest. for thee I sigh,"
was sung by the children. The bene
diction was, pronounced and the au
dience dispersed deeply impressed ;
undoubtedly. many felt ill their
hearts : "Blessed are the dead which
die in the Lord." (Pros-. 14 :
After a large pat of the people
bad left, the cummittee and others.
planted four evergreen trees on this'
lot donated to the , -Moyer family by
the trustees of Fairview • CemeterYi,
These trees will grow here to coin.:
mernorate this occasion iiud the noble
man whose life had been so devoted
to tbe.S. S. work.
Thursday afternoon. 7 -Ifter, the
usual devotional exercises, the com
mittee on nominations presented the
name of Gen. Beaver, of Center Co.,
for President, and lter. G. A. Peitz,
of Philadelphia, for secretary of the
Association for the ensuing :year.
Thefirere unanimously Clected..: ‘
Tho place for holding. ,the next
meeting was then fixed tit. Pittsburg,.
Time, June 12,1872.
A. pact of the afteMooit ses-.
sion 'was spent in illuStrating. the

2. We reaffirm our love and devotion to the
Snndav-school; regarding it as themost 'valua
ble addliary of the church in imparting bible
'instrnetion and leading the young to the:tailor.
3. That - •we hear with' Igratitude of the in

to sheuld be : "All our scholars for Pti'Eas.* -
4. In our juagrecnt no teacher can be quail-,
fled to perform his res'ponsibto dutieswithout
previous, careful study and earnest gay er ;,
hence we recommend that to secure such' 0-
sults, every 'school try to sustain a -weekly
teachers' meeting, where the lesson for the
succeeding Sabbath shall be thoroughly. ca . ,-
valued, and that they make use of a uniform
'series of Icssonsfor the whole school.
`5. That no department_ of church nurture
should ever ha allowed to separate the shep
herd,rrom the lainbs, and that the presence
and salve co-operatiohs of the pastor in the
Stinday-echool and teachers meeting, and his
frequtoWand regular preaching to the children
