Stan bury, Clinton. N. C, and L. E. Thompson, Wilmington, N. C. REV. A. B. CRUMPLER. EDENTON. Our Church in Edenton has rec ently been visited by a gracious re vival, Rev. A. D. Wilcox, of Louis burg, N. C, doing the preaching. His sermons were masterly and the large congregations who heard him were greatly delighted. He is de cidedly one of the most vigorous thinkers in the Conference and af ter one hears him in a series of ser mons he is wiser than before. He captured our people here and they will be glad to see him come this way again. As a result of the meet ing the Church is much revived and twenty-five joined on profession of faith our Sunday-school is said to be the best in the history of the Church. We are serving our third year on this charge. The people are kfnd, loyal and faithful. We love them. To God be all praise. P. D. WOODALL, ST. JOHN'S CHURCH, ST. LOUIS. Our St. John's Church, St. Louis, has taken a distinct forward move ment in her educational work. The Sunday-school has been thoroughly organized into departments accord ing to the latest word of Sunday school experts. The Senior Depart ment has a Superintendent and As sistant Superintendent. The ' teen age boys the same, and also the 'teen-age girls. The Junior Depart ment has been set apart in a separate room, and like the rest under a Sup erintendent and Assistant Superin tendent. The Primary Department continues as heretofore with is Sup erintendent and corps of assistants. Each department has also its Secre tary, an up-to-date system of records has been installed and a new "finan cial plan is being worked out. Graded literature is to be used, and under a General Superintendent and As sistant Superintendent new depart ments will be graded as the need arises. The Advisory Committee provided by the Discipline, which is really a Board of Directors for the school, has just held its first meeting. Thor oughly wrought out plans are be ing prepared, and this superb or ganization adjusted so as to be ready for the opening campaign in the fall. Much interest is being manifested throughout the entire congregation as well as in the city atlarge in this forward movement. The pastor, Rev. John A. Rice, believes profoundly in evangelism, but he believes also in adapting the best results of sci entific research in the field of edu cation to the work of the Church. This organization was worked out by an Efficiency Committee appoint ed by the Quarterly Conference to study every phase of the Church's work and life. This Committee di rected their attention, first, to a care ful study of Sunday-schools in the city and to reports from several out side Sunday-schools. The pastor pre pared a complete syllabus, embody ing the cream of some twenty vol umes on the modern Sunday-school, and turned this over to them as a guide. Following the suggestions in this questionaire they worked out the organization with such other help as they could secure. Every indica tion suggests the confident hope that upon the opening of next year the school will be able to achieve great er efficiency. HOW WE STAND. Below we give an exhibit by dis tricts of what the pastors have done for the Advocate since Conference. The unit of a new subscription is one year paid in advance.
