A few months ago a lake in New

were introduced as a cheap food
but cheap food is not what the
American jeople are after. They
want something more palatable

Wliat U tliu Sun Jay School I
Wrliicn b S. L. Il:nn(ner, N'eeilniorc.
The Sunday school is a modem
name for an ancient, apostolic
service of tho church. Iu other
words, it is a Bible school on
Sundays. It is a school for ''dis
ciples. It is a school with Jesus,
for men women and children to
gether each Sunday with their
Bibles as tho text book, to' learn
about Jesus tho Master" and
lessons of love. Tho "Master"
with his "disciples" about him on
the shore of tho Sea of Galilee, on
the Mount of Olives, in the desert
iu the temple, or in the synagogue
iu tho upper room that was Sun
day school in tho first century.
Tho teaching of that time was not
wholly different from the teach
ing of to-day. It was a school for
questions and answers, for con
versations, illustration and appli-.
cation. The "Master" of this
tirst school did not often, I imug
ine, preach a sermon an occa
sional lecture but, probably,
more often an answer of a ques
tion from a disciple regarding
tho meaning of certain things in
the Old Testament, or concerning
the mysteries of the new king
dom. The Sunday school of to
day meets only on Sunday. Not
so in those days; for, then, all
days were sacred, and every hour
laden with opportunity to learn
from the great teacher, Jesus
Christ. There were times, of
course, when Christ worshipped
according to the established cus
tom of tho templo or synagogue.
There were times when he
preached to the multitude before
him, and times when he chose for
his themes the law, the prophets,
the soul, the Father, the future
t iking his illustrations from life
and nature. His best teaching,
however, was done in the inform
al way of conversation when men
sought Him to inquire concerning
tho things of the kingdom, or
when, perchance, he had an op
portunity, as at Jacob's well or
on tho way to Emmaus, to speak
of the deeper, personal truths of
His missiou. In tho catechetical
confidential interviews, so full of
questions and answers so sug
gestive of eagerness on the part
of the taught to learn the truth,
and the act on the part of the
teacher, we see clearly the germ
and the idea ol the Sunday school
of the early church. This idea
has been revived from time to
time through all the centuries un
til we have the Sunday school of
to-day. ' Given an open Bible, an
earnest believer and teacher, aud
a sincere seeker and scholar, and
we have the essentials of the
early Sunday school yet to-di.y.
Some claim that the Sunday
school had its name and origin in
Robert Raikes, but it has existed
since Christ taught the lawyers
and doctors. And he came to
Nazareth, where he had been
brought up; and as his custom
was lie went into the synagogue
on the Sabbath day and stood up
for to read. And there was de
livered unto him the book of the
prophet Esaias. And when he had
opened tho book ho found the
Place where il was ""on:
The
nJi til ui biiu uui u la u jkjii uj uo
I cause he hath annointed me to
preacn ine gospel to trie poor; tie
hath sent me to heal the broken
hearted, to preach deliverance to
the captives, and recovering of
sight to the blind, to set at liberty
them that are bruised, to preach
the acceptable year of the Lord.
And he closed the book aud he
gave it again to the minister and
sat down. Luke 6:1020. And
all thy children shall be taught of
the Lord, and great shall bo the
poacH of thy children. Isa. 50:13,
T ,n will T tpach trnnao-vp.ssr.rs
thy way; and sinners shall be
converted unto thee. Psalm 51:13
And that they may teach their
children. Deut. 0:10. Come, ye
children, hearken unto mo: I will
teacn you tho fear of the Lord
Psalm 34:11. I will teach you the
good and the right way. I Sam.
12:23. Train up a child in the
way ho should go, and when he is
old he will not depart from it.
Proverbs 22:0. Yo fathers, pro
voko not your children to wrath,
but bring them up in the nurture
and admonition of tho Lord.
Christian dispensation, Eph. 0:4
Here we have Christ, Solomon
and Paul representing the work
of the Sunday school. And Paul
as his manner was, went in unto
them and three Sabbath day
reasoned with them out of the
scriptures. Act. 17:2. Those
who love to build each other up
(by the usual processes of ediflca-
tiou, the interchange, elucidation
auJ application ot truth, desire
also to help tho unenlightened,
that they, too, may kuow the
Word of tho Lord. The true
Christiau is ever seeking for souls
searching for inquirers, aud eu
deavoring to awaken tho indiffer
ent, and tho Sunday school made
up of such individuals will bo
characterized by tho samo spirit.
The foundation of Christian char
acter lies in a knowledge of the
Master's will and that will is His
Testament the scriptures.
The man or woman can bo an
efficient worker in the church on
ly in proportion as tho days of
youth were spent in the Sunday
school. The Sunday school is a
preparatory school, imparting
Biblo knowledge and giving les
sons of truth which, in after
years, are to be fused by the
power of the spirit and converted
into living, throbbing energies of
character. Beyond the limits of
the church, beyond the homes of
believers, and beyond the bounds
even of Christian civilization, are
neglected millions to whom the
very alphabet of religion is an un
known thing, and familiar quota
tions from Holy Writ a strange
tongue. What a work to bo done !
Children neglected by parents
aud pastors, and ungodly men
and children growing up here in
Christian America iu absolute ig
uorance, as far as the Biblo and
Christianity is concerned, for
all shall know me, from the least
to the greatest. Heb. 8: 11. Lit
tle innocent feet patter about on
the steps of stately cathedral, not
knowing save in senseless pro
fanity, the name of the God to
whom it is dedicated. Heathen
crowds, indeed, in the very cen
ters of Christiau civilization. Let
tlie Sunday school open the door,
aud the Bible teacher enter. It
is the dutv of every father and
mother on Sunday morning to
tako their children to Sunday
school or see that they are in the
Sunday school. Jesus, the great
head of the church, said, Suffer
little children, and forbid them
not, to come unto me: for of such
is tho kingdom of heaven.
Hannah gave her son Samuel
to the Lord. How many homes
today has God blessed with
bright little boys and girls to
make the hearts of the parents
happy. We see their smiles and
hear their little steps across the
lloor as ihey speak to us as if to
say, "Father, mother, give me a
religious training that I may be
like Jesus and follow him, and go
to church, Sunday school, aud do
something for Jesus ; that my
heart may be prepared while
young for Jesus to live in."
The Sunday school is a part of
the church of Christ, for there
were children when Jesus was
on earth. He said, Except ye be
converted, and become as little
children, ye shall not enter into
tho kingdom of heaven. Matt. 18:
In I John 2:1 the apostle
speaks of "My little children, I
write unto you." Man is a free
moral agent, capable of choosing
for himself; therefore, If the
young mind is trained in the Sun
day school in the Bible about
Christ, it will grow up and choose
to serve Christ instead of the
Evil One. The Sunday school
ideal is three fold in its nature.
The spirit should prevail in every
Sunday school. It should stand
for the promotion of the Divine
life. And this every Sunday
school is an organization for the
communication of truth to the ig
norant, tho young and the sus
ceptible to whom this world is
fascinating and leading on.
The Sunday Bchool is a prepar
atory institution in which we re
ceive systematic training in the
letter of the law of God. Christ
said, Go, teach all nations. The
gospel must be carried beyond
the present reach of the pulpit,
church service, pastor or church
society. Even to the lost sheep
of the house of Israel. The igno
rant and the prejudiced must be
taught. The ground must be bro
keu and the field prepared for
the final millennial harvest, and
in this great work the Sunday
school must do her part. "Go
out Into tlie highways and hedges
and compel them to come in, that
my house may be filled." Luke
14:23.
