_The Teacher's Covenant._
Impressed with the serious nature of the charge, will the faithful
Sabbath-school teacher enter into a written engagement with his
Saviour, in words somewhat like the following?--
1. _I promise_ to be in my place punctually every Sabbath, at the
time appointed, unless prevented by sickness, or some other cause so
urgent that it would in like manner keep me from important worldly
business.
2. _I promise_, in every such case of unnecessary absence, that I
will use my utmost diligence to secure a suitable substitute, whom I
will instruct in the character of the class and the nature of the
duties to be performed.
3. _I promise_ to study carefully beforehand the lesson to be recited
by the scholars, and to have the subject in my mind during the week,
so that I shall be likely to lay hold of, and lay up for use,
anything that I may meet with in my reading or experience that will
illustrate or enforce the lesson of the approaching Sabbath.
4. _I promise_ to be diligent in informing myself about the books in
the library, so that I can guide my scholars in selecting such books
as will interest and profit them; also in becoming acquainted with
other good books and tracts, so that I can always be prepared, as
opportunities may occur, to lead their minds into right channels of
thought.
5. _I promise_, whenever a scholar is absent from the class on the
Sabbath, that I will visit that scholar before the next Sabbath,
unless prevented by sickness, or by some other hindrance so grave
that it would, under like circumstances, keep me from attending to
important worldly interests.
6. _I promise_ to visit statedly _all_ my scholars, that I may become
acquainted with their families, their occupations, and modes of
living and thinking, their temptations, their difficulties, and the
various means of reaching their hearts and consciences.
