ANNUAL’ REPORT My dear brethren and fellow laborers -— In the providence of God we are brought ance more to tte season when we are accustomed to review our labors for the year, and compare the present with our t experience and with that of our bretbren who were ohce engaged: in this work and into whose labors we have entered it is well that we should pause occasionally and look back upon the history of a year, that we may fee what bas been accomplished, what has been left undone, where we have fatied, what errors we have committed which may yet be rectified by future diligence with earnest pare. for our Heavenly Father's guidance and direction It is well that we should each ask ourselves What have been my motives in engaging in the Sabbath School? Have I had eye single to the Master's glory’ Have I done all that I could to lead the souls committed to my care to the blessed Saviour. remembering that they are his lambs en- trusted to me to be fed for bit? Have I minis- tered to them the pure word? Have I pointed them to Christ as the only Savior? Have Py in structions been accompanied by continual ally outpouring of my heart to Ged in Prayer that he would enable me so to discharge my duties to my class that every child might be brought speedily to a saving knowledge of his truth, and to confess Christ before men? The importance of faithful Sabbath School in- struction can not too highly estimated. While it suould never take the place of bome instruction in the christian family, it isa powerful auxiliary to the pious parent, and it supplies to many chil- dren of unconverted parents the oni: religious advantages whic they are privileged to enjoy. Especially in the Mi School department is this the case. Here the children of poverty, vice, and crime are gathered together to learn of Christ. and while the soul is more rticularly cared for, in imitation of the Saviour's exainple, the wants of the body are also supplied. ‘The sick are vis- ited, the needy are furnished with food and clothi nt is found for those who are I and every means used to elevate arents and children toa higher pos’ Kites and to induce them to seek eternal It may not be Improper to mention the fact that vne of the Mission Schools in connection with the Union has. during the year, distributed over $300 in its benevolent operatic: Before entering upon a recitation of the statis- ties for the year, we will for a moment compare the number of this year with those of the year When the Union was formed The number of schoo Union at this time At the formation of the Union in It Noe of teachers ut this titti do In 18 Do.
