Sl'lThe Sunday school session was en riched by a report from the recent SParish Sunday School convention. a The points receiving most emphasis were: 1. The organization of adult ' classes. 2. The temperance hour was taken by Dr. Watkins in setting n forth the plhysiological effect of alco s hol. i By the way, our class has tak n en upI that very line of work for 19.07.) 3. The importance of using the Bse ~inners Lessons for the infant class. s 4. The advisability of enlisting the infant class as helpers on the cradle roll. The Sunday school found the sub ject "Work among the Mormons" so interesting that they inadvertently ran over into the preaching hour. Some gave their personal experience with Mormon missionaries. Mr. Cal kins gave an account of his recent visit to Salt Lake City, and great em-. phasis was given the Mormon ambi tion to gain control of the U. S. gov ernment. This service was followed by a very helpful sermon by the pas tor. At its close, one young girl signified her intention to consecrate her life to Christ. Special Rates.
