The primary aim of this book is to study the development of the Sunday-school with a View to determining whether or not it will be able to meet the serious and steadily increasing demands of the present age. Its past development reveals its capacity for progressive adaptation. We look back that we may the better go forward. We View the past that we may appreciate the present. We see in the sacrifices that our fathers have made for the progress of the school the call to make its continued progress certain. Over a century and a quarter Of definite progress in the Sunday — school demands that none of the effort Of the past shall be lost, that returns shall come from all the life investment Of the fathers and Old-time teachers, and to see to it that when the story of this present transitional era shall be written it may be worth the telling.
