S.S. SUGGESTIONS
New York Commission Tells
Sabbath Teachers How
Children Should
Be Taught.
VALUE OF BIBLE STORIES
Regular Use of Devotional
Pictures Recommended—
Among the Churches.
The Sunday School Commission of New
York and New Jersey, which has spent
much time in studying the question of
how children should be taught, makes
this recommendation to teachers:
Commencing at the Infant and primary
Schools, there should be a rather sharp
line drawn at five-and-a-half or six years
of age, putting none under the former
age in the primary school proper. The
primary school Itself would then include
from six (or thereabouts) up to the read
ing age. usually nine or ten. The system
used should be based on two principle#
(A) that very small children can appreci
ate only the concrete, and have no proper
conception of either time or space.
Hence, on the one hand, Bible stories
are best suited to their ability, and In the
second place, the order of these stories
should not be chronological, but according
to subject and moral, making each a con
crete and graphic whole, a polished mos
aic, ready to be fitted into the complete
historical scheme, at a later age. Such
stories, well presented at this time, are
never forgotten, and form a groundwork
of inestimable worth for future grasp of
the general history of the Bible. (B) It
is agreed today by the best artists in edu
cational circles that very small children
can appreciate detailed pictures, such a#
half-tones, etc., and do not require merely
Inartistic and crude outline representa
tions. The artistic sense is closely akin
to the religious, and can and should be
deeply awakened at an early period in
childhood. Therefore It is felt by many
that all such devices as outline cards for
sewing, pricking pinholes, coloring with
crayon or paints, etc., though excellent so
far as they go, are not the best that can
be used.
Ana something snouia oe useu m auc
tion to the description of the Bible Story
and the illustration of it in colored chalks
on the blackboard. Something should be
given the child to do. His own self
activity should be provided for. He must
have some share in the lesson directly.
Hence the regular use of the most de
votional of the Perry, Brown and Wilde
Bible pictures is advocated. The lesson
is taught by the teacher, with use of
blackboard, and then the picture, bearing
on the subject, is given the child together
with a little gummed paster, by which in
a cleanly manner it may be pasted in a
specially provided note book, thus form
ing a picture Bible, through which the
child is taught not alone the lesson, but
helpful religious art; and the parent at
home is directly brought into contact and
Interest with the work of the school in
the E»me way. The system is now in use
in the best schools in the land, with aston
ishing results. It is also no more expens
ive than any other plan.
UNIQUE CHOIR.
Hillside Presbyterian Church
of Orange to Wear
Vestments.
Vested choirs in Methodist churches are
becoming common, and at least one Bap
tist church in New York also clothes its

WITHOUT CHANGE
Document Dated 1025 Shows
Roman Catholic Doc
trine Just as It
Is Now,
DNG CANUTE TO HIS SUBJECTS
Danish Monarch Addresses
His People From the
Eternal City—Among
the Churches.
Old documents are always Interesting
to most people. We like to know how
people looked and talked and acted in
situations similar to our own in ages
gone. Rev. Reuben Parsons, in going
over some old Norman history, gives in
the American Catholic Quarterly Re
view a letter that King Canute the Great
wrote from Rome to Iris English subjects
in the early part of the eleventh century
—around 1025. It proves that Catholic
doctrine and sentiment of a thousand
years ago were the same as today.
“Canute, King of all Denmark, of Eng
land, of Norway, and of part of Sweden,
to Egelnoth. the metropolitan, to .Arch
bishop Alfric, to all the bishops and chiefs
and to the entire nation of the English,
nobles and commoners, greeting! I write
to inform vou that I have recently visited
Rome, there to pray for the forgiveness
of my sins, as well as for the security of
the nations subject to my sway. Long
ago I vowed to make this pilgrimage, but
state affairs and other impediments pre
vented the fulfilment of the promise: now.
however, I thank God most humbly for
His having allowed me to visit the tomb
of the Blessed Apostles Peter and Paul,
and to personally venerate that spot, to
gether with the other holy places which
are within and outside the city of Rome^
“This visit was made by me because I
had learned from my teachers that the
Apostle Peter had received from Our
Lord the keys of the kingdom of heaven
and the great power of binding and loos
ing; therefore it was that I deemed it
right to bespeak the intercession of that
Apostle with Almighty God. I would
have you know aieo that an Easter Day
a great numoer oi waucu j
waited on our lord. Pope John; namely,
Conrad, the Emperor, and many chief3
of nations dwelling In the regions be
tween Mount Gargano and the nearest
sea; and all of these personages received
rne most honorably, especially the em
peror, who presented me with some gold
and silver vases and several valuable gar
ments. I availed myself of this occasion
for ap resertation of the grievances of
both my Danish and English subjects to
the Pope, as well as to the emperor and j
the assembled princes, to the end that j
my people, while journeying to Romo,
might not be harassed by so many unjust
exactions.
"Most of the barriers at which these
exactions are perpetrated belong to the
emperor and to King Rudolf, and they
granted my requests, agreeing that in fu
ture my subjects should have free transit,
whether they be pilgrims or merchants,
on their way to Rome, no detent on at
barriers and no payment of unlawful tolls
being demanded. I also represented to
the Pope that when my archbishops ap
plied for the pallium, according to cus
tom, they were obliged to pay exorbitant
sums; then the Pontiff decreed that this
abuse should end. In fact, in the presence
of four achbishops, twenty bishops and
a multitude of dukes and nobles, all that
I requested for the* good of my people
was accorded by the Pope, the emperor,
and those bther princes through whose
dominions the road to Rome passes;
therefore, I thank God for the successful
issue of all the projects that I had formed
in this regard. And now let you all
know that my life haa been dedicated to
the service of God, to the proper govern
ment of my dominions, and to an exact
observance of justice.
“With the help of God I shall make full
restitution in all cases where, owing to
my youth or to negligence, I have ever
violated the rules of justice; and I en
treat and command all to whom I have
entrusted my government that they do no j
injustice to either poor or rich, if they
prize my friendship or desire to save
their souls. Let all persons, both nobles
and commoners, find their rights in the
law; and let that law suffer no exceptions,
either htrough fear of the king or out of
consideration for the great, or because
of the needs of my treasury—I want no
money which is procured by injustice. X
am about to start for Denmark in order
to make peace with the nations who have
done their utmost to deprive me of my
crown and my life. God has deprived
them ofp ower, and I trust that in His
goodness He will protect us and humble
our foes.
"When this peace shall have been ef
fected, and when the affairs of my east
ern dominions shall have been arranged.
X shall return to England as soon as fa1.'
weather permits; but I anticipate that
return with this letter, so that all of vou
may rejoice in my prosperity. All of you
know that I have never spared myself,
and that I never Shall spare myself .if
the good of my subjects is at stake. And
now finally I entreat all the bishops, as
also the sheriffs, by their allegiance to
me and to God, to see that before I return
to you all the church dues be paid ac
cording to ancient custom; that is. the
plough alms, al! cattle tithes of this year,
the Peter's Pence, the fruit tithes lor
mid-August, and the Martinmass kirk
shot for the parish churches. Should
these be omitted, when I arrive the de
linquents shall be punished with an ex
action of the fine decreed by law. Pare
ye well!” _

0AR0ER BE LOCKOUT CURE
Differences Were Arranged at
a Conference Held
Yesterday.
j The strike of the union Mill Wood
i Workers has ended in a victory for the
| men. who this morning returned to work
! in the different mills of the county that
j for the past eight days have been locked
| against them.
With the settlement of this difficulty
■ ends the prospect of a general tie-up of
building operations threatened by the
Master Carpenters' Association because
of a difference of opinion as to the terras
: of an agreement entered into by them
| with the District Council of Carpenters.
} The demand of the Mill Wood Workers
; for a minimum wage rate of J2.50 a day
has been allowed, and in return they
agree that the same shall continue for
two years, or until May 1, 1904.
i The settlement of the difficulty was
i largely brought about by ex-President
! Daniel Morrison of the Building Trades
i Council, Business A£ent R. E. Edwards
of the Carpenters’ District Council, J. A.
Gahagan, secretary of the Mil! Owners'
; Association, .and Business Agent William
P. Kastenhuber of the Master Carpenters’
Association.
Each worked independent of the other,
but towards the same end. with the result
that a conference of the Mill Owners’ As
i sociation with representatives of their
j locked out men was arranged for at the
j Hotel Washington yesterday afternoon.
The mill owners were represrutcu uj
J. A. Gahagan of Hoboken, Isaac Var.de;
beck of Jersey City, and Mr. Church, of
Booth & Co., of Bayonne. F. C. Lussen
hopf, James F. McCormick and Charles
Joel, with Secretary W. J, Ford of the
Philadelphia District Council of Carpen
ters, who had been sent by National
Brotherhood organization, represented
the mill wood workers.
A general discussion of the causes lead
ing up to the strike and lock-cut reveal
ed. as “The News" stated at the start of
the difficulty, very little grounds for so
serious a rupture. The rest was easy
; railing. The mill owners granted the
wage rate asked anti in return the men
entered into an agreement to maintain
l tin. for two years.
Fu.ly two hundred members of Mill
Wood' Workers Local Union No. IIS,
