That was a mean irlck that nice
youifmaa played on the Pennsyl
vania farmer whi entertained him
for1 ar ooaple days and was so cap.
tivated by his pleasant manners.
This young man dreamed a dream,
that la a certain tree on the farm
er's land there was a great lot of
money hid, and said if the farmer
wonld go with him they would hunt
for it, and if found would share it
equally.- - The farmer assented.
They found the tree, out It down,
when, lo, and behold the dream
was verified, and there lay a bag,
the worse of age and wear, which
contained 4,000 silver dollars. The
young man said it would be incon
venient for him to carry 2,000
silver ' dollars, and as the farmer
was accommodating and liked the
clever young man who had just
made him (2,000 rioher, he went
down Into his old cash box at home
and gave the young man 92,000 in
bub in exchange tor it. And then
they parted. It was several days
be lore the old eeutleman dis
covered that the silver dollars were
bogus, and that tbe pleasant man
nered young man had done blm np.

Bible Reading conduoted by Evangelist
Fife on "Qaalifloatton of a Worker for
God." Mr. Fife was very earnest and
gave a most thorough analysis of tbe
subject, using scriptural quotations as
explanations.
Mr. Reynolds expresses muoh grali-
floatlon at seeing so many children
present, as it was for their good tnat
tills bo Jy of men and women had met
here.
Sunday School management was
again returned and what was generally
oonoeded to be tbe model Sunday School
of the State was called on for informa
tion as to how it was condooted. The
honor fell to the Richlanda echool in a
little village of only about two hun
dred inhabitants. Dr. J. L. Nicholson,
its superintendent, was oalled upon
and closely questioned as to howJie
managed to keep up suoh a successful
school. In a nut shell, he evidently
showed it to be by thorough and con
tinued hard work, Much praise was
bestowed upon the Riohlands school by
Mr. Reynolds, and one other gentleman
frooo Rowan Co., arose end wished to
extend oongratula' ions to eastern por
tion of the Slate.
Mr. W. H Dadd of Rileigh pronounce i
one of the beat equipped primary teach
er in the country, was requettod to

were entirety directed towards how to
manage and instruct this branch of the
work.
Report of treasurer . for year ending
Maroh 81st read and adopted,
Mr. President and Brethren:
Your Com. to whom was referred the
Report of the Ex. Com. beg leave to
submit that they have oarefully exam
ined said Report, and oommenoed tbe
same most heartily as being worthy the
full endorsement of the Convention.
We specially call attention to the wis
dom of the Ex. Com. in having their
report printed in 'leaflet form, so: as to
iosure its circulation, and thus accom
plish t".e end aimed at. Your Com.
wishes to emphasise tbe following
statement in the Report. "The greatest
need of our field today laborers," and
would therefore urge that speoial effort
be made on the part of these representa
tive B. S. workers to increase the ooi
hotions in their respective oounties
that we may be able to put good work
men in the field along the line of work
o faithfully and efficiently performed
bv Prof. F. S Blair.
We would also specially emphasize
the recommendation of tbe Ex. Uom
as to the employment of tlr;e State
Visitors on page 7 of tbe Keport and
urge its adoption. We beliove no bet
ter work will lave been done by this
Oim. when it adjourns if, after wise
oounsel and prayerful deliberation
there shall be appointed three men for
his branch of tbe work or whom ttmsy
be said they are full of faith and the
Holy Ghost we may assuredly look for
and expect great things to be done for
Const. -
We wonld oonolude our criticisms by
saying that the adoption of your con
stitution on yesterday precludes the
necessity of any action on tbe last
paragraph in the report to ask as to
representation in our Btate uonvenuon.

spirited talk by evangelists, ministers,

CONSECRATION'.
A Bible Reading Conducted by 1'nif.
Hamill Wednesday Morning.
Prof. H. M. Hamill presented tho fo'.
lowing outline Bible Reading to thu
Sunday School Association upon Cor
seoration. It contains thoughts worthy
of being trodencd and remembered.
First what does Consecration mean,
second what does it bring, third how
is it made. It ought to preface what
we read by an explanation of the word
consecration itself. You will find it
many times in the Old Testament, com
paratively few in the New Testament,
but there is a word used there inter
changeable with consecration with a:i
additional sense, the word sanctifies
oalion. The word oonseoration means
two things, first that I may come before
God as a christian impelled by a sense
of guilt, and second consecration some
time is brought about not through a
sense of guilt but through a senso of
gratitude.
Consecration is a definite act. It
means filiiog your hands. It includes
money, I do not put that first
beoause it is most important
There are a great many people th .t are
oonverted last in their pockets. I think
it is perfeotly legitimate to teach that if
a man would be liberal to his God, Uod
will be liberal towards him temporally.
Conaeoration includes not only money
but time. There is an order older than
that of Masons or of Odd Fellows. It
is the order of tbe Nazaritett. A naza
rite was not a Priest, but a laymtn.
who gave to God's service certain por
tions of bis time, and God peculiarly
blessed the order of tho Nazarite. A
man's business ought to be the incident
to his service for God.
Now let us come to opportunities.
they will come lo you friends, as you
go home. You won't be in your home
a week before some opportunity will
come to you to do good for God in the
salvation of some soul, or in the build
ing up of his kingdom.
Did you ever know anybody that con-
seorated his money to God and that
itheld himself? I know a man that
gave a hundred tnousana dollars to
establish a great school and his own
life had been utterly lacking in conse
cration to God. Did you ev,T know a
man that oonsecrated his time to God
and would not consecrate himself. I
have known some Sunday Sohool Teach
ers that were consecrating an hour a
day each Sabbath to teach a class and
were themselves unsaved. Did you
ever know any body that consecrated
opportunities to God and that withheld
themselves. I have. I have aaen per
sons in a protracted meeting, when
everybody wss astir v, ith tbe desire to
ssve others, I bave seen them at the
call of the pastors go up and down the
aisle speaking to young men and ycung
women, and if you had stepped up to
them and said, "are yon saved your
self?" you would have teen the quiver
of the lip and the tremble of the voice;
they oould not tell for tbe lire of them,
whether they were or not. It is one
thing to oonseorate your money, time
and opportunities to God, but another
thing to oonseorate yourself.
Bow is it made? in the via Testa
ment or the New consecration is at
tended by three distinct steps, self
cleansing, the atoning of tbe blood of
Obrist, and santlfloation by the spirit of
Almighty God. If I am going to con
seorate ray self, tbe first thing that I
must ask is this, is there anything in
my life that God does not like? Take

the sin that I have been doing and
nothing but the blood of Jesus Christ
can be the atonement.

Aaa then wo want to work for Uod.
What are yiu going to ute ? We hear
God saying in Ephes. 0 17, "uud take
the helmet of calvation and the sword
of the spirit which ia tho wora of God."
And I will tell you d ar miuiatere ol
the Gospel, dear Christian workers,
that the word of God is the only thing
the spirit cf God will honor. If you can
not do any thing else, then juat come
up and read pa -cage after passage of
scripture, God will honor it to tbe con
version of many souls. God grant that
we may takn the helmet of salvation,
and go forth and preach tho word uf
the living God.
Now in the ltat place God tells us to
study his word. We have been search
ing and we close by studying. Wa turn
to2Tim. 2-15: "Study to show thyself
approved unt3 God, a workman that
needeth not to be ashamrd, rightly
dividing the word of truth." Do you
want to be a worker and SunJay achoo!
teacher ? Then you want to study to
see what is approved unto God, not
unto the paople around you, but unto
God, unto God, unto God.
We have bad to run through this
very briefly because our time is up now,
but I beg you as a man redeemed, aa a
man who has been regenerated, aud as
a man glory to God'e holy name that
ia aesured of the fact that hie
name is inscribed upon the
Lamb's bock of lifo: I b.'g you as a
man that loves the souls of tho Sunday
School children in North Oarollua; I
beg you aa a man that loves the souls of
dying men and women ia this great Old
North State; I bag joi to take that
book, to mske it the man of your coun
cil, I beg you to use it ia your labor,
and I beg rou to winprociouj iouIs by
it,"
Prof. Hamill Sail;
"I eaid thij tftcrnoou tint Sunday
Sohool teaching was au art that miht
bj mastered as any other art. I have
never found but two or threo born
teaohers in my life. Horace siid of tbe
poet Archau9, "A poet 13 born, hu orator
is made. Teaching comes not by
heredity, and tho mantle of prophecy
which means teaching does not fall
upon many people.
Now I will take one principle of
it. It id called
the principle of 00 operation. There
must be o operation on the part of the
teacher; he must know whit he teach
es. "And, my ftienJs, li'e U too short
for you to waste your tixe trying to
teach boys and girls that are not pij ing
attention. If you think you cm do that,
you have done what Socrates could not
do, and what his successors have nevir
been able to do.
"Then the language Itself nun co-
opirate. TbU langaage thould be so
plain that the dullest soholar in the
olas ean understand it. Our pupils do
not understand many words we find in
Scripture, and there -are a great mtny
boys aad gfi who would rather lose
thshr right hand almost t)an to ask
yon question .
"The supreme mptuant for the teach-
er is tjo re. :.Mi n. To begin with, be
fore the tbi- v ft , a cmutee of teaching
I thick there are some preliminaries. I
want the teacher to be on time. A the
scholars come in you want to give eaoh
one a cordial greeting; make him feel
at home, especially if hia clothes are a
little ragged and his face a little dirty,
and hia manners a little different from
those of tho icfioed Christian boy or
girl.
