The Tabernacle Pulpit.

By A. J. B.

The Sabbath services of the 16th inst. were devoted to the interests of our Battle Creek church school. Dr. J. H. Kellogg gave a forty-five minute talk to the one hundred and forty children composing the school, and by means of questions, and answers by the children, succeeded remarkably well in keeping their attention during the entire time. The subject of the talk was the marvelous power of God manifested in the sunlight and gravitation. The large audience of adults present were as deeply interested as the children themselves. The speaker was assisted in the services by Elders I. D. Van Horn, S. H. Lane, and H. M. Mitchell. Musical selections were rendered by both the children and the choir.

The church-school work is carried on in the Tabernacle vestries, the class work being conducted by seven teachers, assisted by Miss Grace E. Amadon, who is in charge. That the work done in this school is first-class was shown by the prompt, intelligent, and philosophical answers given by the children to the speaker of the day, as he propounded to them questions concerning nature which would puzzle many older persons.
