CRADLE ROLL IN
E
WHITES ICNTKRTA I XI NO liY OF
VALUE OF NEW MOVEMENT
PROVES SUCCESSFUL WHER
EVER TIMED Ol'T INTEHEST
IX COLUMN FOR SUNDAY
SCHOOL FOLKS.
Wo havo taken ns our motto
' Wayne county In tho Front Lino by
October, 1911, when wo go to Now
Cnstlo" for our Stnto convention.
If this aim is realized we must
hnvc about sixty cradle rolls In tho
county. We have already quite a
goodly number but not nearly
enough. It Is for the schools which
as yet know nothing of the work
that this article Is written.
The Cradle Roll is tho latest and
In many ways the most important
department of the Sunduy School.
It alms to place tho sheltering
caro of the church about the little
ones by giving the pastor and other
officers of the church and Sunday
school an opportunity to come in
contact with the home through mu
tual Interest in the baby. By Its
work the child at the earliest possi
ble moment, receives the bcncllt of
the school, and the school secures
the co-operation of tho home.
Many children who would have
but little religious training will ear
ly In life reailzc tho sheltering care
of church and Sabbath school
through tho Roll.
It should show a friendly, helpful
spirit toward little ones in the com
munity whether the parents aro af
filiated with any church or not nnd
should bring them into the Sunday
school. It encourages parents and older
members of the family to take more
Interest In tho Sunday school and
Induces mnny of them to become
attendants themselves.
The babies and children, too
young to attend the Sunday school
are the members. Babies are enroll
ed at birth or as soon after as the
consent of parents Is obtained. They
remain In the Department until they
begin attending Sunday school reg
ularly usually until three or four
years old.
This Department has proved very
helpful in my own and many other
schools, why will it not in yours?
It is possible that many souls will
be saved through this agency and
If we are in earnest we will make
use of evrything which has been
given us by our Master to bring the
world to the feet of Christ. If you
are in a school where the babies are
not members decide to do all In
your power to bring about a change.
Think about It. Pray about it and
then put the matter before your
school. Ask them to appoint some
suitable person as superintendent.
This person should preferably be
a woman. She should be some one
with a large mother heart, a person
who can make herself welcome In
the homes to which she goes.
When a superintendent has been
appointed she should find out from
the Primary class, Home Department
visitors, and pastor the names of all
babies in the Sunday school dis
trict. Enrollment cards together with a
letter explaining the working of the
roll should then be sent to each
mother. These nre returned by all
mothers who are anxious that their
children become members. There
are few mothers who will not want
their children connected with the
school and very often the superin
tendent will receive the reply "cer
tainly and I think I'll come my
self." As soon ns tho child Is enrolled
a certificate is sent to the home.
This recognizes tho new relation be
tween home and school.
The names of the babies are plac
ed on a large roll which should bo
hung In the school room.
At each birthday as well as at
Thanksgiving and Easter the child
is remembered by suitable cards and
at Christmas by a card or small tok
en. After the child has been enrolled
visits should be inado at the home
often for tho purpose Is to link homo
and school more closely.
Invitations to special socials or
festivals should bo sent to tho baby
and Its mother.
As soon as tho child is old enough
ho should be transferred to the Be
ginner's class. This Is a point at
which we must bo very careful.
Every Cradle Roll member should
be brought at three, four or five
years of age Into the school. If then
tho work In tho various classes Is
Interesting we shnll be able to hold
them until death in one department
or another, and soon tho percentage
of peoplo who attend Sunday school
in our county shnll bo soventy-flvo
rather than twenty.
Tho materials needed can bo ob
tained from any of tho denomina
tional publishing houses nt n very
nominal cost. A paper called "Tho
Golden Now" which Is very helpful to
CradloRoll mothers Is printed by
David C. Cook. Wo mention this
because It scorns to meet the ap
proval of various workers and so
fnr as we know is tho only paper
of Its kind printed.
There Is no school so poor that It
cannot nfford a Cradlo Roll Depart
ment, nnd no school so woll off that
It needs none. Hero tho city school
has no advantage ovor tho country
school for It hns been tried In equal
success In schools of both kinds.
Try It.
