MINNESOTA S. S. ASSOCIATION.
By L. A. Curtis
This Association held a Convention at Hutchinson, Minn., Feb. 24, 1879, at two and seven o'clock P. M. The President, W. B. Hill, gave a history of the workings of the society since its organization, and spoke of its financial standing. He also spoke of the Sabbath-school work, of its importance and wants. Eld. S. N. Haskell then spoke at length of the Sabbath-school work, and the use of the Instructor, records, maps, etc. Resolutions were passed recommending the adoption of the plan of regular weekly contributions, and that one-tenth of the sum so raised in each school be forwarded quarterly to the State S. S. Association; also that each school provide itself, as soon as possible, with “Bible Lessons for Little Ones” and the weekly Instructor, also the Class and School Records, and Colton’s maps of Palestine and of the journeyings of the children of Israel. It was also decided that during the year the President should hold at least one general meeting in each T. and M. district in the State, for the purpose of raising the interest in the S. S. work, and giving instruction in all its branches. Kingston, Meeker Co., Minn.
