History of the Sunday School 1
• The Sunday Schools of time may
be divided into two classes. The Sun-
day Schools of .the old, and that of
modern times. The idea of the school.
is not by any means a modern one.
We read in Nehemiah 8:1—"And; all
the people gathered, together as one
anan into the street that was before
the water gate; and they apake unto
Ezra the scribe that 'Was *before the
book of the law of Moses, which the
• Lord had commanded to Israel.
And Ezra the priest brought the'
law before the congregation both of
men and women, and all that could
hear with understanding.
That is just one instance of where
'the Inc was taught to those who
were not in the synagogue. it is
said that these school's in: connec-
vection with the synagogue multi-
pried .throughout Israel, and while
-our Lord was ministering upon earth
there were from 460 to' 480 syna-
gogue schools itu Jerusalem alone. tt
is believed that Jesus Hitnself was
;taught in oiie of these schools.
Previous, to this time eh ren
were taught in the home. It is: be-
lieved that Mothers had something
to do with teaching of the ohildren,
but the father was: bound to teach
his son. As we read the law of Moses
the early teaching of the child fell
upon the father but even before the
child was 'old enough to be taught
by the father, the mother had instill-
ed into its .mind at least some of the
teaching of God's Word. We can im-
agine those mothers while still nurs-
ing her child repeating over some of
the teachings of the 'old testament,
just as the Christian mothers' of to-
day sing their babies to sleep with
such ,hymns as "Jesus, loves me."
There is a great deal of oontrover-
sy at the present time over religion
beiny taught in aur public schools.
It is to be hoped that this method of
teaching will be carried out. Just
what is the best plan to do it would
perhaps better be left to the govern-
ment, but it is tobehoped: that the supervision. Consequenaly a great
Bible will be taught in the sehools'by deal of immortality -broke out among
real Christian men and women. We
can hardly imagine the word of Gocl
being taught ,by any one who was.
not a ,Christian. Some years ago a
Collegiate teacher was preparing to
open the class session. He looked. all
all about the desit while the students
waited and then be said, "The reg-
ister is not here this morning so we
will omit prayer' We are not to
judge. It may be he paid little atten-
tion to religious matters' and again
it is very difficult for some people,
even .ministers to repeat the Lord's
Prayer, or to pronounce the Bene-
diction -unless they have it in .front
of them. A very noted minister in
one of aur city churches will make
a very 'earnest prayey and at the
end wilt put on his spectacles • and;

deal of prayer on the part of the
followers of Christ.

One day Robert Raikes' was walk- There is more tea available, bett-

children playing on the street. He
asked a woman whether they belong-
ed to that part of the district or not

Prior to 1780 there was no modern
Sunday School movement. It was
begun in Gloucerter, England. At

were many young children employed

PICTURE COMPOSITION4?
n composing this picture the photographer used good judgment in having
the Iimbs and trunks of the trees serve as a frame for the house.
To ,many camera fans "picture
I- composition" is a terrifying ex-
pression. To them it seems to imply
learning books of rules, delving
deeply into art theory -indeed, all
manner of effort and trouble. As a
matter of fact, picture composition
is simply pleasing arrangement --
arrangement that satis•fles the eye.
And, in taking pictures, a little
thought and common sense' are bet-
ter than a whole' encyclopedia.
'After all, every picture subject is
different, and no rule or set of
rules can • cover: all subjects. per-
fectly. When you choose a picture
subject, simply ask yourself, "What
arrangemInt,t, of this ,vile be most
pleasing int print?"' Visualize
the picture idea clearly; then ar-
range the parts of your •picture so
that. they will carry out that, idea.
After that, simply frame your sub-
ject properly in the flndeiand,shoot.
"But," you otay.aak, "suppose the
subject can'tbe moved or
rear-
ranged?" Any subieet can usually
be "rearranged" for the camera sim-
piy by changing your poaltion to
.
obtain a different view of'what you
are picturing.
'We may compare good composition
in picture to good arrangement of
a room. Regard your, blank film as.
an empty room. Then set out to
furnish this picture space in 'a
pleasing manner.
In furnishing a room, you don't
want' to include so much furniture
that the place seems cluttered. This
is also true of a picture. Never
crowd your picture space with too
many details ---keep . the arrange-
ment simple. `
`
In organizing your room you
wouldn't want to place all the furni-
ture together in front of one wail,•-
for then you would have 'a stiff, un-
attractive arrangement 'that ,would
look crowded and uncomfortable.
Nor, in a picture, will you want
all the subject matter, or even the
most important subject, to be cen-
ered stiffly and formally. You•should
seek an informal arrangement„ so,
that the eye enters the picture easi-
ly and ands comfort and harmony
,when it arrives. '
This is the common-sense method
of making snapshots. Organize, the
picture as you would your living,
room, so that it pleases and com-
forts the eye. Spend a -few extra
moments planning the picture, and
work out the details •before you
shoot. That's good photographic •
procedure, and is sure to yield 'bet-
ter ,pictures.
