that It is to amuse. Interest and In
struct and should contain books of ref.
erence for the teachers, and an ob
ject should bo to keep tho scholars
from reading bad literature. Remarks
were mado by George Kennedy and E.
M. Fuller. G. F. North of Burlington
spoke on "The Ideal; All the Church
In the Sunday School." The idea be
expressed was that all who attended

Macomber of this placo and George N.
Wood of Milton, who wero nlso an
nounced for this subject, wero not
present. Somo of tho points expressed
were that they wore needed there bo
cause they are men of action, practi
cability and decision; also that a busi
ness man is likely to be looked up to
or made an Ideal of by children; there
fore, their inlluonce Is very strong,
either for good or for evil. It was also
emphasized that the business man
needed ii for himself, It was sug
gested by the chairman and others as
to what reason the business man count
glvo for not being In the Sunday
school. "Problems nnd Blessings of
Primary Work" was spoken on by Mm,
E. M. Fuller of Burlington. Ulio said
that the three problems wero tho teach
er, tho parents of tho children and tho
children: that tho teacher must know
the lesson befoo she can tench It;
keep in touch with the other teachers,
call upon tho children In their homes;
be present every Sunday, also that tho
three graces of a teacher have boon
said to bo earnestness, to arrest, cheer
fulness lo attract and sympathy,
to hold; also that tho thorough
en-operation of tho parents Is
needed, especially tho mnthor.
Capt, Georgo E. Davis of Burlington
gnvo an Interesting and suggestive ad
diess on "The Why and tho How of the
Teachers' Meeting." Mo emphasized tho
need of these meetings, that they bo
mado n matter of business not to ho put
asldo for anything else, that they Iw held
at the same place, and turns bo taken
in leading, This was considered to bo
one of the best addresses, This was fol
lowed by a short Intermission. Mrs. Fred
W. Whllronib of Burlington sang "O
Lovo Divine" In her over pleasing man
nor. Miss Nello Hopkins presided at tho
piano. Tho next subjoct on mo pro
gramme was "Tho Teachers' Equipment'
(1) "Intellectual," W. 13. Howe; (2) "Splr
itiial," C. E. Putney, both of Burling
ton." Mr. Howe was not present there
fore Mr. Putney covered tho subject In a
pleasing and prnctical manner. Ills
thoughts wero that Sunday school teach-
ers should it se eclei with more uwerim
illation, the samo as public school tench-
ers nie, and not that any ono wouin no
that thev Hhould havo a thorough know!
edge of the Bible, that they should know
where they Htand, thero being too much
sleptlclsm expressed and that teachers
should prepare themselves by faith and
tu iver and lovo. Tho closing address
was by the Rov E. .M, Fuller, his sub
lect belmr. "Thu New liupcrlilam" on
which ho spoko hi an Interesting man
ner stating that ho belloves that this Is
truo In a religious as well a a political
