The Sabbath-School Report

By W. A. S.

THOSE who do not take the Sabbath School Worker miss many interesting points of information. For the benefit of such we quote the following note from the December Worker, commenting on the quarterly summary of Sabbath-school reports ending June 30, 1907:—

This summary shows the largest number of Sabbath-schools, the largest membership, the largest average attendance, the largest Home Department membership, the largest contributions, the largest amount given to missions, of any quarterly Sabbath-school report in the history of our work.

This report shows 3,395 schools, with a membership of 76,731, in addition to which there are Home Department members numbering 3,859. Out of the total contributions of $21,288 during the quarter, the schools gave to missions $17,805.

These are figures to inspire all hearts with courage. The Sabbath-schools have become one of the leading factors in sending the message to the world. While we are feasting upon the good things of the Word in the classes from Sabbath to Sabbath, it is appropriate that we should remember those who have not this truth that rejoices our hearts. W. A. S.
