Emphasizing the fact that a Sunday school could be successful only by care ful grading and regulation, Jlev. E. S. Lewis, the editor of the Sunday School Advocate and the Classmate, addressed the Methodist Sunday School convention this morning. - , "We must grade the Sunday school." said Dr. Lewis, "becaune God has graded the chtld And there is a second funda mental principle: God has graded the truth. There are some portions of the Bible that it makes no difference if the child never reads. Shall we have that conception of the Bible that all parts are equally valuable? It is easy to see that the Bible is a graded book. - "Because- the- child is graded, because- me BiDie is graded in trutn. concluded Dr. Lewis, "the Sunday school should be graded." i Religions Trainer "pasts Following Dr. Lewis at the morning session Mrs. A. A. Lamoreaux of Chi cago, an authority on religious training of children, spoke on the ''Study of Be ginners." Mrs. Lamoreaux defined the different periods of development from childhood to maturity, and further clar ified the principles of growth, illustrat ing and discussing them in relation to Sunday school work. At 8:30 o'clock this afternoon Mrs. Lamoreaux resumed her discussion with an address on the "Primary Age," taking up for consideration children from .( to 0 years of age. , 'There are certain gateways into the soul of the child," said the lecturer, "and at different periods different gate ways must be used. There are the gate ways of memory, of activity an4 of imagination. "In the' primary age we must enter the (hild's soul through imagination. We can accomplish this bv moans of the story." Mrs. Lamoreaux spent half the time of her discussion showing how to prepare and how to tell stories to children of the primary age. The last speaker of today's session was Dr. Edgar Blake, who said In part: Attendance la weeded. "A great need of the church Is bigger Sunday schools. There are 8.000,000 chil dren in- the United States that are out side the Protestant and Roman Catholic churches. This means that practically one third of the children of our land are receiving- no adequate religious instruc tion. Every . community has scores, some hundreds, others thousands of children that ought to be Included and brought into the Sunday school. "The Methodist Episcopal church has g.BOO.OOO members". This number can be easily doubled in a decade. Indeed there is hardly a school represented In this correspondence that could not double its membership In- two years.

This morn ing the extradition proceedlpgs which had been started by the United States authorities were withdrawn. The extradition law is that a man can be extradited only for a criminal of fense which is an offense In both coun tries, and as there was doubt as to whether the state law in California was exactly similar T to the one here the question was not tested. The charge In Los Angeles was that of passing worthless checks, but the of fense In Canada Is the false pretense of getting money by means of worth less checks.
