He spoke of the inspiration of the sur roundings and urged all to join in the j work. He referred to the Inter-nation- al lesson series and said that he thought' that they had reached; their zenith. He 1 thought the day not far distant when the Baptist will select their own subjects for study. Prof. R. L. Kendrick : in -a neatly prepared speech gave his ideas of an ideal Sunday school. He- showed the falicy of the bid idea that the-Sun-day . school was. merely" an institution for . cfiUdren and:that it was . not a plaice for 5 grown - people.
