eculty
are presented, that each teach-
er may select the plan or plans best
adapted to his own class. .
x. Eleven Question :Matches.
1 For this review the teacher will
prepare a set of questions on each
lesson, perhaps six•• for a lesson,
bringing out the leading facts . and
tcachiings of the lesson. : Make sure:
that each question will be readily
understood by itself, Write each
question on a separate slip of paper:
Keep each set of questions separate
and it will be well to use paper of
different colors ; for the different
lessons.
I Appoint two leaders ' and have

pupils are chosen. Lay the ,questions

II. Sin Prophets
We have studied this quarter
about six of the greatest Hebrew
prophets, so that the review may
well take the form of sig; essays or
talks concerning thctnl, They are
Elijah, Eliaha, Amos, Hosea, Micah, iand f saiath, Divide the time evenly
I
among the speakers, and close the
hour with a little talk by the teacher
on Hebrew prophecy, its nature and
its significance, especially its bear-
ing on Christianity, and the reason.
why it should be studied earnestly
to -day.
III. Prophetic Messages for To -day.
The lessons of this quarter have
not begun to exhaust the teachings
pf the Hebrew prophets that bear on
modern problems, and the review in
the older classes may well be devot-
ed to still more. applications of pro-
phetic truth, as well as new cm.:
phasis on themes already discussed.
Here are sone' topics which may be
divided among the meantbers of the
i cu'sian
On
each tos
class, lead ads

x. What would the prophets say
about the land question in the United
States?
2. What advice would the propltc s
give us concerning our immigration
peroblenis?
3'. What are the, teachings of the
prophets regarding poverty and the
way to abolish it? .
4. How would the prophets handle
the relations between labor and ca-
pital?
5. What governmental difficulties
of the .present day could be solved
by the, wisdom of the prophets?
6. What is the bearing of prophecy
on the theological discussions up-
permost among us?
7. What message have the proph-
etsfor modern women?
8. How would the prohibition ques-
tion fare at the :hands of the proph-
ets?
g. What teachings of the prophets
apply to our present-day amusements?
Io. How would the prophets regard
the vast fortunes of modern times?
it, What would be the attitude of
the prophets toward the League of
Nations?
12, How would the church life of
modern 'Sorel' America please the pro-
phets?
