5.--The teacher should carefully avoid lecturing little children on religious subjects. Do not let the idea that the Bible is a Protestant book get a foothold in the school. The three things essential to religious teaching are: 1.--The Holy Bible, God’s Word. 2.--Sacred Song. 3.--With very small pupils, in fact with any pupils, the most important factor is the _Christian teacher_, who works through personal influence, contact, example of Christian living and doing--(slow to anger and quick to forgive). Every child must be made to feel that the teacher is interested _in him personally_; and the teacher must watch closely the child’s growing power to appreciate spiritual things. 6.--The Bible furnishes abundant material for all grades of religious instruction, from the kindergarten to the college. It abounds in romantic and intensely interesting episodes calculated to excite the imagination, interest the young and fix the attention,--if the teacher have the skill to adapt it to the demands of the child, as he is obliged to adapt other branches of school work. 7.--Every Christian teacher should be a diligent student of the Bible, particularly the New Testament. Very little formal instruction can be given in religion in the lower primary grades, much, however, is taught by _seeing_ the conduct and _feeling_ the touch of the teacher who has heard the “follow Me” spoken to Andrew and Simon. 8.--No revival or pulpit methods, no pressure of an emotional kind is to be made in any department of the school to induce children to become Protestants. Protestantism is not to be lauded nor Romanism attacked. The Word of God is a cure for all false beliefs and a sure guide to right living. The above precedes the specific directions for the organization of the work in the different grades,--selections of Scripture, hymns, Bible narrative, etc., and is enough to show the principles on which we proceed.--_Dr. H.
