The Church's Sorrow
Action on the death of Mr. Boyd
tras taken last night at a meeting of
teachers and officers of the Pine Street
Presbyterian Sunday School, with
which Mr. Boyd was long connected as
scholar, teacher and superintendent.
These resolutions were adopted:
"In memory of our beloved su
perintendent, John Teomans Boyd,
who departed this life on Monday
morning, March 9, 1914, the
teachers and officers of the Pine
Street Presbyterian Sunday School
present the following tribute:
"Mr. Boyd was elected superin
tendent of our school on the 9th
day of July, 1907, for the term of
three years, commencing August.
1907. and was re-elected for a
similar term twice, and was serv
ing as such at the time of his
death.
"No mistake was made in his
selection. He was a faithful and
devoted Christian and a mode!
superintendent. He had executive
ability of a superior order and
was wise In the selection of his
methods In conducting the school.
He was a splendid Bible scholar
and teacher, was courteous and
kind to officers, teachers and
scholars, and won the hearty co
operation of all by his affectionate
and sunny disposition. He was a
man of more than ordinary in
telligence and was an ardent stu
dent of the Bible and believed In
it as the very word of God. He
was a firm believer in the deity of
Jesus Christ, and in his life mani
fested his faith in the power and
work of the holy spirit. He be
lieved in the missionary spirit of
the gospel of Jesus Christ and was
an ardent advocate of missions.
"His Interest In the Sunday
school cause was general, but his
love for the Pine Street Sunday
School was special. He had a
warm hand and a kind heart for
all its members. His presence in
the school was an inspiration and
his memory will be to us all a
priceless legacy. Every pulsation
of his noble heart was in deep
sympathy with the work and for
the success of our school. He will
he absent from us in the body, but
'being dead yet speaketh.'.
"As teachers and officers of this
school we can pay no higher tri
bute to his memory than by pledg
ing ourselves here and now to the
continuation of the work he so
remarkably developed in our
school. God's workers may die,
but His work must go on."
The resolutions were signed by
Thomas L. Wallace. John Fox Weiss.
Mrs. E. Z. Gross. Mrs. John Q. Stewart
and James A. Stranahan, chairman.
SCHOOLSTRT
PRODUCING RESULTS
[Continued from First Page.]
to the "special school" a scholar must
lave an average not lower than 90 per
cent, for the year's work in the sev
■r.th grade. When he can show this
result he is then required to pass a
rigid examination. If he is successful
icre also his admittance is only a
•juestion of parental consent. Through
this method children in any way dis
qualified for keeping up with the
double work expected of them are
■found out in time and it is very un
isual that a pupil once a member of
the "special school" ever has to drop
out and back. There are, sometimes,
• ases where for a couple of months
things look discouraging, but by gentle
lrging on the teacher's part and a
fresh grip on the scholar's, they forge
ahead rapidly.
Boys and Girls Faithful
The course of study usually done in
•Mle year in the eighth grade is gone
through in the first four months in the
'special school." The regular tests or
examinations take place in December
and from that time until the June
the work of the ninth gTade
s done. It requires unlimited am
bition and faithfulness on the part of
the scholars, but they have by that
•.ime reached the age to appreciate the
value of education and the need of
application. That they do so is proven
ijy the perfectly wonderful record of
attendance.
Most of the "special school" pupils
who attend the Woodward building
have from one and a half to two miles
to go every day. With the exception
of the Monday morning of wind and
ullzzard a week ago there Is almost an
jnbroken roll of perfect attendance
since the first of the term. At the
Reily building the same record is
shown.
Home environment has a great deal
to do with the progress of the pupils
say the teachers. The parents' finan
cial condition must be such that the
is left free to study at home in
stead of helping to increase the family
income outside of school hours or to
assist materially with the work of the
home. There Is seldom time for the
lsual quiet study periods during their
busy school hours. Usually two, and
sometimes three, lessons must be thor
oughly mastered at home every day.
There have been a few brilliant excep
tions where children have carried both
the financial and educational burdens
on their young shoulders, but such
ases are rare. When they do occur
the grit and courage of the child
makes its special appeal to the sym
pathies of the two wonderful women
who have this work In charge and they
are quick to defend and help the
struggling young feet up the ladder to
their utmost ability.
The reaction of the nerve strain
upon the delicate physical organisms
of half-grown boys and girls is some
thing which requires constant watch
fulness. It was with this idea in mind
that Mrs. Fox. the teacher of the
Woodward building "special school."
told her class at the beginning of the
season:
Do Work Each Day
"Do what I give you to do each day
and never worry yourselves about the
results. If you will follow my lead, it
Is all I ask. I will bear all the burden
of responsibility for you and all the
•iare and strain."
As a general thing, the children
iteep well and seem none the worse
for their extra amount of study.
