OUR SABBATH-SCHOOL WORK.

By Committee of Gen. S. S. Association

We have reason to be greatly encouraged by the increasing interest that is manifested in the Sabbath-school work, and by the good that is being accomplished.

Our State S. S. Associations will be a great help to all the schools if they will respond cheerfully to the effort that is being made by the State officers. We hope all our schools will notice the following suggestions:—

It has been recommended that each school should hold a business meeting in connection with the church quarterly meeting of April 6.
It is requested that each director shall consider the interests of the S. S. work at the district quarterly meeting.
It is recommended that there be a general attendance of S. S. officers, and all those especially interested in this work, at the State quarterly meetings, at which there should be a quarterly S. S. Convention.
It is very important that the State Associations shall have at the end of the quarter a report from every school within their limits. As next Sabbath is the last one in this quarter, let each school elect its officers for the next three months in the time usually devoted to general exercises.

On the Monday following this election, let the person who has acted as secretary during the quarter, fill out the blank report giving the full address of the officers just elected, and forward it immediately to the State Secretary. Let the Superintendent of each school that has not received a blank report from his State Secretary, drop him a line, stating the name of the school, the number of members, and the names and addresses of the superintendent and secretary. Schools outside of State organizations, and any who have forgotten the address of their State Secretary may report to
