He bulit up his Y:{]k_ about It would be much more pleasing to e words. The first was confidence, me to talk of conmstruction than d thout confidence, he id, people fense; but since there are admitted | cannot sirive togetiier successfully In faults in the Sunday school we must | any v This must be a mutual work to protect and strengthen what | relation. The superintendent must be n man of capability and energy to re- ceive the confidence of his teachers. On the other hand, the teachers must | be faithful and capable to hold the confidence of the superintendent. The second word 1s co-operation.; Most of our Sunday schools are demo- | eratiz institations. The superintend- ent is elected by the school, or by the teachers. Many a valuable suggestion or idea from the superintendent is lost on account of lack of co-operation. The pirit of co-operation will make the difference of success or failure. The third word suggested by Rev. | Mr. Cunningham was control, under which head he empbasized the neces- sity for placing contrel and power over we already have. The first great leak is the easy manner in which the grov ing boy is allowed to slip out of the Sunday school; the boy who is no onger & boy, nor yet a mature man. At this period the Sunday school becomes tame to him who is just grasping new views and possibilities. This is just the time In his life when we must-get | a grip on him and not let him go.
