Dr. J. Slegert & ‘Sons, Mirra At draggists, SUNDAY SCHOOLWORK The District Union Holding Its Six- teenth Annual Convention. REVIEW OF THE WORK BEING DONE Addresses by Leaders in Bible Study and Teaching. a ag eS GRATIFYING PROGRESS ————— ‘The sixteenth annual convention of the Sunday School Union of the District of Co- lumbia, auxiliary to the Interaailonal Sun day School Association, began last evening in the First Congregational Church, corner of 10th and G streets northwest, and was largely attended, every seat on the floor and in the galleries being occupied. Before the devotional exercises a praise service was conducted by a male chorus, under the direction of Mr. Percy 8. Foster. After the close of devotional services, which were conducted by Rev. Dr. 8. H. Greene, President P. H. Bristow delivered his annual addrese. Mr. Bristow stated that among other matters which will be brought to the at- tention of the convention will be a proposi- tion to have during the ensuing year a house-to-house canvass in Washington with the view of inducing many persons who do not now attend any church to in future do so. Statiatios of District Schools. The annual report of Field Worker Jerome F. Johnson, which was submitted, gave facts as follows: “There were con- nected with the District Union one year ago 147 schools. Since that time two haw disbanded and two others consolidated, while six have been added to the list, mak- ing the total at this ate 150. “The number and enrollment of these schools, arranged by denominations, are as follows: Thirty-two Methodist 488; 32 Episcopal, 5,231; 25 P: David James Burrell. 6.085; 16 Baptist, ae 14 Lutheran, 5 M.

This is that added department of the Sunday school which includes the aged, infirm, physicians, drug clerks, those having exacting family cares. pc n, street car employes, &c &c.; they agreeing to study the lesson of each week at least one-half hour in the home or elsewhere, unless prevented by sickness or other good cause. The possi- bilities of great blessing and comfort aris- ing from this ‘Sunday school extension’ idea are not ditficult to foresee. Sunday School Libraries, “The schools report an aggregate of 48,998 volumes in their libraries, the largest containing 4,688. Their contributions for all purposes amounted in 18% to $32, or about $1 per member. Of this sum, the offerings of the Methodist Episcopal schools amounted to $8,044.83, exceeding by about $2,500 any_other denomination. “The first 25 schools in order of sizes as shown by the statistics gathered in the early pert of this year, show a total en- rolilment as follows: Calvary Ba Hamline Methodist Episcopal, ern Presbyterian, 667; Waugh M.
