(Continued from first pafte. ) tion of the city of Allahabad, giv in.' a description of the city as to its buildings, struct, general surroundings, and its inhabit ants. The city's narrie Allaha bad-Miss Wishart stated, means "A City of God," but in reality it is a City of gods," as on all sides are temples to the many gods which the natives hold in great reverence. Miss Wishart relat ed an account of a great religious fete of the natives as she had wit nessed it, in which. two millions of people participated. One could not but bestrongly impressed by the pitiableness of the ignorance of these people displayed in their worship of their priests. The speaker made an earnest plea in behalf of these people, dwelling on the responsibility of the en lighteded uations to take to them the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, who alone can save them. Miss Wishart closed her address with some interesting personal experience in the work. The au dionco counted it a rare treat to hear these words from one so ex perienced and so competent to tell of her knowledge of this in teresting country and people. The second speaker Mr. Lan des, alter some well chosen re marks expressing his delight to be with the convention and pay ing a pleasing tribute to the beau ties of our mountains and valley, spoke on the subject, "The Main spring of the Movement," in which he placed unlimited value on the Sunday school as a power for bringing persons to Christ. Mr. Landes' genial manner and pleasant words won tor him tho perfect attention of the entire au dience. The services closed with music by the choir and a benediction pronounced by the Re w Rice. WEDNESDAY, A. M. At 7 o'clock on this morning a ser vice of prayer and sonjr was hold. Considering the early hour of this ser vice, the number present was com mendable. The service was led bv Mr. Lysinger, president of the Bed ford county Sabbath School Associa tion. The regular morning session con vened at 1) o'clock, presided over bv Rev. Diehl, in the absence of the vice- president, Geo. VV. Hays. The devo tional exercise wag conducted by J lev. Moyer of the Hustontown M. E.church. The Superintendents' Conference, next on the program, was short owing to lack of time. Mr. Landes spoke on the subject of Sunday School Management, giving much that wag clear and practical for every school. He dwelt emphatically on four essentials for every success ful Sunday school; promptness, or der, program, and results. Every school must begin on time, as a mat ter of education to the pupils; no school can accomplish spiritual good for the pupils without order an order which must not be confused wlth still ness; a program adapted to the lesson of the day will add to tho Interest al ways; and then results will follow as reward for earnest effort results in form of large numbers of young per sons deciding to stand for Christ and His church. Itev. Bryner of the M. E. church, talked on the Grading of the Sunday school, showing the benelitg of the grading by illustration of the ad van tapes the graded day-schools have over tho ungraded ones. Mr. M. II. Shaff ner followed Mr. Bryner, giving a plea for the continued attendance of tt'du its upon the Sunday school. Prof. II. M. Grifllth, of Wells Tan nery, who was to speak upon the rela tion of the Public School to the Bible School, wag unable to be present The convention was fortunate to have present Prof. Galley Chambers, a for mer Fulton county teacher, and now a' professor in the University of Pennsyl vania. Prof. Chambers made an able talk on the subject assigned to Mr. Griffith. Miss Mollie Seylar made a short talk on the subject, "The Teacher Training Class at Work." Mrs. S. M. Cook took the subject of "Value of Enrollment and Examina tion," (n the place of Miss Baumgard ner, who was assigned that on the pro gram. The latter part of the session was given over to Mr. Landes, who con ducted a general conference on Sun day school work. Any one in the convention was given the liberty to ask Mr. Landls questions upon any phase of this line of work, and much that was helpful and Interesting re suited from the conference. The convention adjourned to meet In session again at 1:30. Notice.
