SABBATH-SCHOOL LESSONS.
By C. H. Jones
THE lessons for the senior division of our Sabbath-schools for the first quarter of 1890 will be a continuation of the study of the letter to the Hebrews. These lessons will be published in pamphlet form as one number of the "Bible Students' Library." Price, 5 cents, post-paid. At the last meeting of the International Sabbath-school Association the following resolution was adopted:— "WHEREAS, The publication in the SIGNS OF THE TIMES and the Review and Herald of the questions on the Sabbath-school lessons, together with the Scripture texts, printed in full, opens the way for the superficial perusal of the lessons, without going to the Bible itself, thus lowering the grade of scholarship in our schools; therefore, "Resolved, That we request the above-named papers to substitute for the publication of the lessons in full in their columns, extended notes on the same." It is expected that these papers will comply with this request, and thus it will be necessary for all members of the senior division to supply themselves with lesson pamphlets. The advantages to be gained by studying the lesson directly from the Bible, simply using the lesson pamphlet for questions and notes, are too apparent to require further comment. We have been unavoidably delayed in getting this series of lessons examined and made ready for the printer, but if all will act promptly the entire membership may be supplied with lesson pamphlets before the beginning of the quarter. We trust that the officers of every school will give this matter their early attention, and that orders will be forwarded promptly. Address all orders to Pacific Press Publishing Company, Oakland, Cal., or to your State T. and M. Society.
