PAINT PUT-ON,
Think of paint put-on and not by
the gallon,
A sallon of paint in the can is of
no ' account to anybody. Put it on.
Now reckon its cost and value.
The secret is: one pAint goes twicc
a£ far as another. A good one goes
twice as far as a bad one.
You have a job, say an average
job. It’ll take 10 gallons Devoe and
12 or 15 or 18 or 20 cf middling poor
very poor and trash. You know pain
ter’s wages in your town. Put the
pr';cc 01 a gallon of paint and the
painter’s day-wage together. You
bevoe costs less than any inferior
paint; there are hundreds of them.
One p.iint i.s as good as nnother,
so long as it lasts good; one la.«s

THE Lili^OPr AND OLDEST BANK^-IN THE COUNTY.
(Tin Qm Widt tb* Ckims.)
BURLINGTON. N. C
In taking up the subject' of this pa
per, I cannot do better than quote
from a leaflet published in Guilford
County, in the interest of this parti
cular movecie’it. .
“This office will bear .substantially
,^c, same relation to the Sujpday,
schools of the county that the office of
superintendent of public instruction
bears to the day schools. : Tradition,
law and circumstance have commit
ted Christian education very largely
to the Sunday siiiool. Christian citi
zenship is the best aisset of the com
munity, of our county, and it is the
product of the Sunday school and cf
Christian homes,, which are in large
measure also a product of the Sun
day school, >The Sunday school is,
therefore,, an agency of such trem
endous value that we cannot afford to
invest in it anything short of our
very best. We must put ourselves
into it, and our money into it, and
cur enthusiasm into it, and make it
as attractive and as instructive as
thorough and as cfBcient as ou:; day
schools are. We must have'» super
intendent of religious instruction, an
expert to advise and aid in the proper
grading of our Sunday schools, to in
troduce approved methods, to conduct
institutes, to establish community
training schools for Sunday school
workers and teachers, to give dignity
and earnestness and efRciuicy to Sun
day school teaching and to Sunday
school teachers. The employnteat cf
such an oDieer will constitute for the
church an investment who^ value
would be hard to dbplicate. The Sun
day siJiool is becoming more and more
the doorway to the church, and more
and more is it true that a neglected,
lifeless, inefBcient Sunday school Js
the fo'rerunner of a dead church.”
By common consent, the church
stands for all that is best in human
life.’'"
It is iioth a constraining and a re
straining inffuence, constraining the
individual to si life of Christian love
and ser/ice, and through the influence
of this constituency, restraining the
wrong-doer of the community.
Under no consideration would our
citizenship, even the indifferent cle
ment «nly nominally Christian, be de
prived of its beneiicial influence.
If then, the church is of such fanda-
mencal importance, why is there not
a corresponding interest in and effort
towai-d its upbvilding, on the part of
all those who profess its importence?
Why so nrglected by so many peo
ple’
Without any discussion of this
point we pass on to another.
By common consent also, the Sun
day school is recognized Ks the most
productive source of recruit for the
church. I quote some statistics, in
support as follows:
05 per cent of its ministers, 85 per
cent of all its members, 95 per cent
of all church workers, and 75 per
'Cent of church organizations, have |d.'!ys.
grown out of the Sunday Schools,
A three-fourths, plus of the numeri
cal strength of the church, a direct
contribution from the Sunday School.
If this, under present efforts of or
ganization and policy, what might be jit c-le.nrs the tbroat ami }.;ive. relief

Mnnent, leave the incietenee, the em
phasis, of this work to Aose
for various. reas/>ns have become con-
cenied..
We Want no law upon our statute
txioki compelling men to go to church.
Certainly not. But we do want the
best organized .effort that can be made
by our religious forces, to gather in
and train the children for the sen'ice
of the churt-h and of the world.
Again «e need for training che
young in religious ideals, as much
perfection of method, as in public
school; as rich a contribution of brain
and chavatiei- and sense of pei'sonal
responaibility, as ii? demanded in the
teaching pe!?uiincl of the day school.
■\nd back of all this we need the su
pervising head a;it| lieart and hand,
v.hose daily duty shall be to bi-ing
to bear such features of improvement
as he may be able to work out and
glean or in any way appropriate for
the Iwtterment of his charge. .
Only one consideration may seem
forbidding—the financial support of
this whole time Superintendent, How
ever, this support may be easily pos-
sible when every man and woman, of
professed interest in the church says
“no” to just three questions.
1, Is the religious education of out:
children of lese importance than the
three R’s?
2, is there any agency half so fruit
ful in results along the line of reli
gious ediicatioii as the Sunday School 1
3, It the work of your particular
Sunday &hool so efficient that it could
not be benefltteU by keeping in touch
with a trained leader?
I believe that the nine thousand odd
children in our county, between the
ages Sf'eix and twenty-one, a pitiably
small per cent of whom are in regu
lar training in the Sunday School, (if
niy oHwn township may be taken for
example) are of such importance, in-
dividually, and to the I!fe of Alamance
county,'to Justify a whole time Saper-
inten^iiitt in the interest of their re-
li^oiis 'location, through the increas
ed eifOTts of the various churches of
the various communities, 1 believe
also, that thero is enough intemt and
enougS' mohey in the Munty to pro
vide ifer this, if the people of tha
courty cioald be brought to think on
the suljjert.
So, to take a step in that direction,
I would recommend a letter from this
convention, to every pastor and Sun
day School Superintendent in Ala
mance, in the interest of the move-
ment, to be followed by a succession
of township meeUngt, held by these
same paatots and Sunday School
Superintendents in their respective
fields, for a discussion of such details
of the subject as may be important to
\ report to be given
-rnr
it at this time,
at such time and place a.« the convcn-
tton may think best.
