The convention opened by singing "All Flail the Power of Jesus Name," a scripture reading by Rev J. Ken- nedy and prayer by Mr John Wilson, superintendent of the Presbyterian Sunday school at Auburn. Rev 0. L. Mills, of Myth, presided most acceptably at -the session. • Words of welcome were spoken by Revs. McKilibin, ,Olenrens and Ken- nedy The nominating committee, consist- ag-of-theelergymenr-sti perintendents- and bible class teachers representing each school, presented the fellowing report, which, was ditlys ratified ;- President, Rev J. Murdock, Clinton ; vice-president, Rev Mr Clemens, Ben - miller; secretary -treasurer. John Wil. son, Auburn. THE MODEL SUPERINTENDENT. Rev Mr Clemens very ably intro- dueed and discussed the Atodel Super- intendent. He said that the superin- tendent should be a leader attoog men. He must be a good man, honest in all his dealings; thoroughly itemper- ate, pure minded and cleanly n all his personal habits. He must be interest- ed in his work, a lover of children, able to win and retain their love, a man of frequent prayer for the school, one who preys for it in public and in pri- vate, it man who will eonsult with the officers andteachers as to the arrange- ment of the school exet eises, who will prepare his lesson thoroughly, and one who will not get into ruts. Ile should visit the children and teachers at their homes. The rev. gentleman read an extract dealing with the qualifications of the superintendent, which met with the approval of the convention. The following points were emphasized :- (a) Inflammation of the heart, (b) en- largement of the head, (c) deletion of the eye (d) unknotted countenance, (e) itching of the hand, (ty nervousness of the feet, (g) stiffening of the beets - bone Mr A. Carr in discussing the aboye emphasized variety in exercises, promptness in opening and closing ex- ercises, consultation with officers, and an arrangement with other superin- tendents for S. S. literature to secure uniformity in teaching and methods. Mr John Wilson said the first duty of superintendent was to study the terrperment of the pupils and ,arrange methods to suit. Mr A. Young, Carlow,in continuing, said that the superintendent should be a man full of the Holy Ghost and faith -these qualifications would over- come ,any defects in education or ability. The superintendent in addi- tion should I3e an attractive personalty, well posted in the wants Of the School, full of interest in the welfare of teach- ers and pupils. This was followed by tt short song service, during which Ore bilIelting committee were at work. AFTERNOON SESSIoN. Ohildren's marls meeting, led by Rev W. T.

Ile palled attention that the same talents required in the school wks available att •home and should be:used by parents in leading their children to Christ. • In dealing with the positive side he said it was necessary to forrn good resolutions in reterence to Sabbath school work. but it was more impartial to have .them properly dated -dated at sight. Satan, had no better way of leading them to destruction than by flattering t hem for their good rese/ntions,. This wee one of tbe great needs of tlae age - to date to its members. The overflow meeting for the evening session was addressed by Rays. Kee- nedy and Hall, • The convention grows and is a per- manent institution. It is a necessity not tinivereally admitted. Overflow meetinge are a thing of the past. Two churches and two distinct programs are imperatively required for the fut- ure. Plans are now being formed for next year's convention.

We must consecrate ourselves and Children to God. We must believe that children can be taught and must put this into practice at 'a very early age -5, 0 or 7 years ; this was the best agetomake impressions on the mind of the young child. Let the parents go to school, teach when required, or bet- ter, have a regular class, failing that, take part in the Bible class, as there were no be' ter or more pleasant way to spend a Sunday. By doing this the children would be convinced that the Sunday schoal was for all and would largely solve the most vexed convention question, "How to retain the older pu- pile."
