Discussion developed the great need of a field worker, and it was moved that the matter of the field worker be re ferred to the executive, with power to act. The reading of a letter from G. II. Himes to the secretary in regard to the ork in Clatsop and Jackson comities mply emphasized the need. At 1 :30 there were conferences of the uperintendents, teachers and primarv workers, led by E. Peeples, A. W. Ban fnard and Mrs. E. W. Allen. These Conference were for the purpose of com- faring noteB in tne various nnesoi worn, nd were very helpful. At 2:15 devotional services were led Rev. C. A. Nutley, after which came bports of departments of work. J Report of the home department was made by Rev. Poling of Portland. When he took the work there were only two home classes in the state. There have been four classes organized. The home class is intended to take in those who cannot for any reason attend the regu lar Sunday scbool travelers, railroad and steamboat men, every employee who has to work on Sunday, all inva lids, buBy people, etc. The report on primary work by Mrs. E. W. Allen of Portland waB very inter esting, as her work always is. A year ago there were two Primary Unions, now there are four and a prospect of several more at points where prelimin ary work has beeu done. Mrs. Allen in her report gave an idea of how the union works and how the meetings are carried on.

DlscusBion brought out how the work is done. "Progressive Methods," by D. D. Oli phant, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce of Portland, interested and instructed the convention. A letter from the W. C. T. U. of the state ot Oregon was read by Mrs. French, also a letter from Gov. Taylor of Ten nessee inviting the convention to attend the exposition at Nashville. The question box was conducted by dent, Mrs. Smith French, The Dalles; second vice-president, Rev. H. L. Wood of Shedds; secretary, A. A. Morse of Portland ; financial secretary and treas urer, D. D.

G. A. Blair. A recommendation of the committee that a new department, that of interme diate work, be established, was adopted, and Mrs. Emma Groom of Portland was elected as superintendent thereof. TUESDAY KVUM.STi. A large crowd attended the conven tion exercises last evening. They be gun with a praise service, led by Rev. W. R. WinaiiBof the American Sunday School Union, following which came an address by Rev. Ray Palmer of Port land, entitled "Is ThiB Old World Grow ing Brighter?" We regret everyone could not have heard Mr. Palmer, as Ids thoughts were of a high nature and couched in beautiful words. Both Mr. Palmer and Dr. E. P. Hill, pastor of the First Presbyterian church in Port- j land, who spoke upon "Unseen Help-j ere," are speakers of recognized rank, and the impression they produced upon I the people of The Dalles was most' favorable. ! WEOXK8DA Y MOHXINti. fn Velnpwlav mornintr at 9:oU a model Sunday school waB opened in th session. It was organized with thirteen plftBSPB and 107 members. Prof. R. R. Steel of Portland being superintendent. The session was conducted as a regular I Sunday school, beginning with an open-1 ing exercise, then the lesson, during which a collection ot $3 25 was taken, and a closing exercise, including a re view by the superintended. Thia was followed by a discussion on the past hour, which was helpful and Instructive. The reports from the field by the Sun day kchool missionaries, were made by Revs. Travis, Winans and Hughes. In Rev. Travis' report, it was developed that there are over 132,000 Sunday bchooifl rationed by the International Sunday ! School Association, and that there are of officers, teachers and scholars, 12,280, GOO, and as many more children in the country who have no religious training at all. Here we have the bright and the dark side of the work the success and the need. Rev. Hughes gave an inter esting account of hie work in the desti tute districts of Eastern Oregon, with the use of a map. Rev. Winans cov ered the state in a general way. The greatest difficulty is the fact that the people are so scattered, and not greed or lack of desire on the part of the people for religious instruction. We sell Hoe Cake soap.
