WORKERS MEET
. IN CONVENTION
' Lotiisille, June 20. An Important
leature of the twelfth annual imer
mtlonal Sunday school conventi,,;-.
wis the adoption of the report or tin
International lesson committee whuh
prepared the lessons for all SuioLiy
ichools, aggregating a membership of
tliteen millions. -
a. C. Hazard, of Boston, presi
dent of the Sunday school eJm-aiioii-il
association, delivered an address
m "Graded Lessons Why Should
They Be Used?" . He said;
"In changing from the uniform
toe graded lessons a school would
lose the possibility of holding gener
al teachers' meetings. But few teach
ers' meetings are successful, mainly
because the special needs and difficul
ties of the different grades are not
considered. Teachers of smaller chil
dren, who neglect their own teachers'
meeting, often at considerable trou
ble, to attend a primary union be
cause they there get just the help
they need. The fact suggests that it
will be easier to get .together the
teachers for the same grade, for hav
ing the same problem to meet they
will, get more help from each other.
Better teachers' meetings of this sort
will result from having graded lcs
sone. . "Graded lessons are conceived on
the right principle the right mate
rial for each grade in the school. If
that principle will be cnrried out.
there can be no question as to their
ultimate adoption by the schools. I
fully believe that American teachers
are quick-witted enough to perceive
what will serve them best. The grad
ed lessons before us have been so
carefully prepared that It would be
folly not to give them a fair and full
trial."
