The Sunday-school difiers from all other schools in that it employs but one text-book. Visit every class of every department in the Sunday school and you find therein one book studied, and one only - the Bible. The Sunday-school as an institution exists for the purpose of teaching the word of God to young and old. And in the Sunday-school of to day there is one unique feature: all the schools ia the land - with exceptions so few as not to deserve notice - use the same selections of Scripture on the same Sunday. The adoption of the Uniform Lessons, which began in 1873, was a great step, not only toward Christian unity, but toward eficiency and thoroughness in the study of the Bible. More eyes than ever before have been turned upon the sacred page; more Bibles have been circulated; more and better expositions have been prepared and published, and even the Bible world itself has been investigated as never before to throw its light upon the interpretation of Scripture. As a result, there is a more general and more intelligent faith than the history of the Church can thow in the past. The generation which feeds upon the sincere milk of the word will surely grow to strength and completeness of Christian character.
