she told many interesting facts about 
her own work along this line. Mrs. 
L. E. Ware of Worcester was the 
next speaker on “The Work for Our 
Children.” She dwelt upon the mean- 
ing of the church and of the needs of 
the children in the church. She said, 
“The Sunday School must do more 
than to teach the children to worship ; 
it must: prepare them for church 
membership.” The Sunday School 
has also a mission to teach children 
the great lesson of helping others, of 
service. 
The meeting was fortunate in be- 
ing able to hear Rev. Donald H. Ger- 
rish of Lynn, who delivered an in- 
spiring address on ‘““The Challenge of 
the Harvest.” The greater part of 
his talk had to do with the far reach- 
ing influence of the Sunday School, 
concerning which he gave some in- 
teresting figures. Eighty percent of 
the men in the churches were in the 
Sunday Schools in youth, but only 20 
percent of the Sunday School stu- 
dents are affiliated with the church in 
later life. The Sunday School could 
contribute inestimably more under 
careful cultivation as it is a recog- 
nized fact that it is not measuring up 
to its responsibilities. Whenever there 
is a decline in morals, restoration is 
possible through the training of the 
children and the great task of the 
church is to reach the multitudes of 
young people who must be the 
— — 
saviours of the country. To reach 
them while they are still young is the 
challenge to the competency and sin- 
cerity of the church and the test of 
our Christainity. Rev. Mr. Gerrish 
told of many incidences which had 
come within his own observation, all 
interesting and his address was 
thoroughly enjoyed. 
Owing to an accident the stereopti- 
con views, which were to have been 
shown of the methods of the North- 
field Summer School of Sunday 
School could not be exhibited. 
Officers were elected for the fol- 
lowing year as follows: President, 
Alfred L. Saben of Manchester; 
vice-president, Willard S. Pike, 
Gloucester; secretary and treasurer, 
Rev. Charles A. Hatch, Manchester ; 
secretary of the Home Department, 
Mrs. F. E. Pinkham; Elementary, 
Mrs. Joseph T. Moulton; Advanced, 
Mrs. Ernest S. Curtis, and Adult, E. 
R. Wheeler. 
Resolutions, which had been drawn 
up by the committee, Rev. Denton J. 
Neily and Abbott B. Foster, were 
passed. The first was one of appre- 
ciation of the stand taken by Presi- 
dent Wilson with regard to the 
European War and the establishment 
of peace; the second, of gratitude for 
the advance which has been made 
during the year in the cause of tem- 
perance and an expressed determina- 
tion of work for a “saloonless Amer- 
ica; the last a resolution of thanks 
for the generous hospitality of the 
Congregational church of Manches- 
ter. The meeting closed with the 
benediction by Rev. Mr. Williams
