In only one September during the last

Congregational Sunday school teachers
of Burlington and vicinity, to tho number
of about GO attended the Institute In tho
vestry of the College Street Church
Tuesday afternoon und evening, whoro
problems In the line of their work woro
considered by speakers from Boston.
A devotional service, led by tho Rev
C. C. Adams of Essex Junction nt three
o'clock, opened the Institute. "Our Senso
of Need In Hundny School Work" wns
treated by tho first speaker, tho Bow
Dr. S. O. Barnes, nctlng pastor of tho
First Church of this city. Ho emphasized
the need In teachers of a sense of respon
sibility ns shown by faithfulness, prompt-
In work, and of a
sense of responsibility ns personal ex
amples to their pupils.
The Rev. Arthur W. Bin- .iierln
tendent for northern Nov r t of the
Congregational Sundav , i,i sdclety,
named ns "Actual t -I iji II i Im In the
Schools," a rove cut uumiphcro, ade
quate valuation of th" schools on the
part of the people and the church, teach
ers who are trained to understand how to
fulfil their duties, and grnded Sundny
schools In which the work Is adapted ,o
the ages of the pupils.
"We don't have a steady harvest of
new Christians." said he In concluding.
"Fifty per cent. of our churches In
Maine. Now Hnmpshlre and Vermont re
port no accessions of new members. But
we can have a steady harvest If we will
work."
Following Informal conferences conduct

beginners' specialist, upon "The Qljlld
nnd the School," nnd by Dr. William
Ewlng. missionary secretary upon "En
larging the Kingdom." Mr. Bailey spoke
ngoln.
(le said that the same cnll found In
business nnd tho professions Is found
strongly In the churches with reference to
teachers. It Is a call for teachers who
know how to teach and understand meth
ods of questioning, lllustrntlng nnd story
telling: n call for teachers who know
characteristics and conditions in vnrlous
stages of the Individual's development
from Infnnev to maturity.
There Is nlso a call, said he, for men
nnd women who know their Bibles
not simply ns books, nor merely nnv
lng eommlttej passages to memory,
but who know the spirit nnd message
of the Bible as a whole and In Its
mnny pnrts, and understand tho grnl
ual revolution which It records. It Is
a call for m,n and women who know
not simply about God, the theological
Jeflnitlons of Ills nature and some of
the things He has done In the past, but
who know Him through personnl ex
perience, nni who know Ills relation
to the life of boys, girls and mon of
all ages.
At the evening session, following
supper served Iri the church building,
tho Rev. D. II. Strong of Milton led
, a devotional service. Mr. Bailey then
I conducted an open conference on
"Tools, Leaks and Music," in the course
of which were discussed various helps
In Sunday school work, emphasizing
