Until the Sunday school began toattract the chiliren genenlly they looked upn Sunday, or the “Sabbath day,” as it wis forme alled, asa sort of penance day, There was but little for young people to do but sit and hold their handsand lok solemn, The preaching, for the most part, was far alove tieir heads, intellectially considered, and theday was to themone round of dry formalities and precepts. But dong with the changes in the business world havecome many changes in chureh worship, and whereasthe preachingof sor- mmons and the observance ofthe church ritual used 0 be comsidered alout all that there wis o bo dow, those things are now only & departmentof the work done by most of the moderm churches. The Sunday sehiool has beome a wonderful pover and a source of pleasure as well as profit for the children, Nearly every church thal pretends to keeop abreastof the agohasnow a youmg people’s society which takes upbothreligious ana lit- enry work outside of the usial services.
