36w II. A Geographical _ Review.â€" For this review each scholar may make an outline map showing the various countries and places that were the scenes of the quarter‘s lessons. Let each lesson be locatd with a figure. When a lesson inâ€" volves more than one place, repeat the figure at each locality. Then let the scholar make a list of the places, by names and number, and write opposite each a brief stateâ€" ment of the principal lesson to be learned from the event that occurred there. For example: "Jerusalem : the first church council, teaching the value of frank and brotherly discussion of differences." III. A Charaeterizations, Review. â€"This review will take up the variâ€" ous persons that have entered into our quarter‘s lessons. Each scholar will be asked to write brief charâ€" acterizations of all these persons. These will be read and compared in the class, one character at a time. They should be quite brief, often hardly more than a sentence. For example: "John Mark, a man of good impulses but weak determinaâ€" tion ; he made one great failure, but he also made a great recovery.‘‘ I. A Progress Reviewâ€".To carry out this review, request the scholars a week in advance to go over all the lessons of the quarter and note for each of them what step in advance was taken by the church,. For exâ€" ample, Lesson I. marks the beginâ€" ning of the broadening of the church to take in the Gentiles, Lesson IL. marks a strengthening of the church‘s faith in the power of prayâ€" er. _ The event of Lesson IIL. gave to the church its greatest leader, at the same time winning its chief persecutor. The scholars will make lists of these ‘"Fforward steps‘‘ and these lists will be compared in the class, taking one lesson at a time, and thus reviewing its chief points. VÂ¥. A Centralâ€"Text Review.â€"Ask the scholars to go over the lessons at home and select for each of them the verse that they think best emâ€" bodies the spirit and thought of the lesson. Tell them in every case to use the entire lesson, and not mereâ€" Lesson _ XILâ€"Ecview _ Sunday. ___â€" Colden Text, Acts 4: 33. A variety of forms of review is given here, in order that teachers may select the method best suited to the age and ability of their classes. Sometimes it will be best to unite two or more plans, or to take parts of several, or to make other adaptaâ€" tions of these suggestions. THE SUNDAY SCHOOL _ Golden Text.â€"What great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus.â€" Aoets 4: 33. There are two types of mind everywhereâ€"those that crystalize No new truth is at first welcome to many. Old leaders will fight it bitterly because it seems to them to necessitate their doing their thinking all over again, and usualâ€" ly they are too old or have too long fallen out of the habit of thinkâ€" ing to contemplate that process with any pleasure.â€" Their followâ€" ers simply echo their alarms beâ€" cause they are told either to do so or be damned: Every creed has been at some time the rankest kind of heresy.. It owed its vitality to that fact; when all men are able to speak well of it, when all can chant it without dissent, it ceases to have any power. It has memories but no vision ; it recites history but it offers no prophecy. THEN NEW HERETICS ARISE. They are the men who tell not what ‘their fathers saw but what they are trying to see for themselves. They.dare to tell the truth of today in the terms of today. Whenever you dare to do that you may be cerâ€" tain to hear the stormy protests of those whose slumosers are disturbed by these new sounds. + The creeds are but the definitions and analyses attempted by the past. They are accounts of what men were able to see and tell of their thoughts of the ways of the infinite among men. They differed beâ€" cause no two men can occupy preâ€" cisely the same point of view. But the intellectually slothful quickly seized such descriptions and set them up as final; they saved them the labor of looking farther into truth. â€"INTERNAEIONAL LESSON, & JUNE 20. Be What You Believe and Put Your Creed Into Conduct and Character ons oo en ds uo C ce se h t e Cl planations tend constantly to beâ€" come its laws. It is hard to keep its thought flexible, vital, and so developing. Every age tends to settle back on the descriptions of the vision of the age before it and declare that nothing may be seen beyond.

What was the secret of the effectiveness of Paul‘s preachâ€" ing } s t n iln. 3 _~YÂ¥TI â€"A â€"Christianâ€"Life _ Review= Each lesson of the quarter has some strong teaching on the conduct of life. It will make an inspiring reâ€" view if you set the scholars to formâ€" ing lists, at home, of these teachâ€" ings, at least one for every lesson, and then compare the results in the class. For example, the Christianâ€" life teaching of Lesson V., Paul in Cyprus, would be considered by some to be the duty of missionary activity ; by others, tae folly of opâ€" posing Christian work ; by others, the blindness of the soul, like Elyâ€" mas‘s physical blindness, which comes upon all that set themselves? in opposition to the truths of _ the gospel. | Lesson IV. Why are not all our modern churches as vigorous as that at Antioch ? Lesson V. Why was the gospel confirmed by miracles in Paul‘s day, and why is it not confirmed in the same way toâ€"day ! $ VII. A Problems Review.â€"This would be a good form for the review to take in adult classes. Let the teacher draw up a list of problems connected with the various lessons, perhaps one for each lesson, and preferably the problems that arose in the class discussions and were not satisfactorily settled at the. time. Read the list to the class slowly, calling for volunteers to assume the responsibility of leading the class, on the next Sunday, in the discusâ€" sion of these problems. Here is a suggested list : Lesson VII. Would Paul and Barnabas have been justified in usâ€" ing the homage of the people for the greater influence of the gospel 1 Lesson I. Should a Christian ever associate himself with nonâ€"Chrisâ€" tians ? Lesson II. Why are not all God‘s saints delivered from their prisons ! Lesson 111. What really converted Saul 1t Lesson VIII. The decision of the council was a compromise. When are compromises wise, and when foolish 1 VILM. A Peterâ€"Paul â€" Review.â€"â€" This form of view would be_ excelâ€" lent for the primary department. Let all the lessons be grouped about Peter and Paul, the two leading characters. â€" Make it a review ofi Peter‘s life, as far back as his call to be a disciple. The best way, Lesson IX. Is faith possible apart from works! Lesson X. Is it every Christian‘s duty to speak for Christ! Lesson XIL. Have we as great opâ€" portunities for faith as Abraham and Moses had ly the verses that are printed in the quarterlies and lessonâ€"leaves. For instance, for Lesson I. some may prefer v. 15; others, v. 28 or 34 or Â¥aâ€"d5 or v. 45. The discussion of these different choices in the class, and the fixing on a final choice, will constitute a thoughtful review. You find these two types everyâ€" where in life. Noâ€"one needs even to suggest which is more valuable in all the affairs of the world, which has made possible scientific disâ€" covery and its adaptation to human comforts and _ usefulness. _ The man to whom truth is a living thing is the man who will steadily seek to apply truth to life to make it live. That application of living truth to vital things is the ul important disâ€" tinction. It is that which we most need to see clearly in matters of reâ€" ligion. The great thing is to take such an attitude to religious truth that we shall see every vision as meaning something real, livable, as opening truth to us only as someâ€" thing to be realized and lived. Truth saves as it is lived. Life discovers untruth and reveals the power and glory of the true. The other type of mind receives truth as a living thing ; its ideas are ever developing ; each vision proâ€" mises largor views. The explanaâ€" tion that seems to satisfy today is held as tentative always; it must grow in order to explain the larger facts that open up toâ€"morrow. That mind never has a creed save as a matter of TEMPORARY RECORD. These two types seldom underâ€" stand one another ; they never symâ€" pathize. They are almost sure to clash, and the first will denounce the second as the treacherous foe of truth. Our theological battles lie between these two types of thinking, between those for whom truth is deâ€" livered in sealed, unbreakable packages and those for whom it breaks out in larger meaning every day. an idea and those that fertilize it. Some view of truth comes to the first type and it is immediately packed away in precisely the form in which it first appeared. It canâ€" not be changed ; it must either stay that way or be utterly shattered. That mind makes such a form a fetich. HENRY F. COPE Collision on theâ€" Great Northern Near Vancouver. A despatch from VYancouver, B.

Others Injured by Collapse of a Building at Halifax. A despatch from Halifax says : Halifax was threatened with a big fire on Wednesday afternoon, but the department succeeded in conâ€" fining it to the structure in which it started. Nevertheless, it cost the life of one fireman, and severe bruises and narrow escapes from death by half a dozen others in the collapse of the building. The blaze was in the wooden building occupied by the Nova Scotia Furâ€" nishing Company, adjoining their main brick structure. _ After the fire had been got under control the wooden _ building collapsed while a score of firemen were at work within it, or on the roof. A mass of debris fell upon the men, but all were dug out with more or less injuries, excepting James Tynan, who was at work with the hose when the roof fell in. He was struck by a beam, and instantâ€" ly killed. VYOoICE sHOT THROUGH AIR. TWO ENGINEERS KILLED. $125,000 FIRE IN QUEBEC. CROPS IN FINE SHAPE. PLUNGED INTO WELL. FIREMAN WAS KILLED.
