MAINE S. S. ASSOCIATION.

By W. H. Blaisdell; Isadore A. Baker

The Teachers’ Institute held at Norridgewock, Maine, in connection with the T. and M. meeting, Oct. 18, 19, was attended by representatives from quite a large number of schools.

Three meetings of the Institute were held. During the first, the time was occupied by an instructive and interesting address from the president, in which he showed what great results could and should be accomplished in the Sabbath-schools, and explained the means and plans by which these ends could best be reached.

The other meetings were devoted to discussions of plans, an examination of the manner of keeping record books, and to listening to the various suggestions of the officers and teachers in regard to many subjects that were interesting to those connected in any way with Sabbath-school work.

The following resolution was adopted:—

Whereas, There has been, especially in some parts of our State, a lack of interest in the Sabbath-school work, therefore

Resolved, That we recommend all our people to heartily co-operate in this work, in accordance with the effort made at our late camp-meeting; and that we all take hold of this work with renewed diligence.

W. H. BLAISDELL, Pres.

ISADORE A. BAKER, Sec.
