The June Class

Editor

The Normal class of the Board of Education began its session June 20, and continued for two weeks. The class was larger in numbers than that of one year ago and was unusually representative in character, embracing, as it did, students from various parts of the globe. The following places were represented:—

Little Rock, Ark.; Pekin, China; Denver, Col.; Washington, D. C.; Wilmington, Del.; London and Manchester, Eng.; Paris, France; Macon, Ga.; Lewiston, Idaho; Chicago, Bloomington, Decatur, and Galesburg, Ill.; Charles City and Burlington, Ia.; Wichita, Kan.; Louisville and Winchester, Ky.; Winnipeg, Man.; Baltimore, Md.; Boston, Mass.; Battle Creek, Mich.; Duluth and Minneapolis, Minn.; St. Joseph and Kansas City, Mo.; Helena, Mont.; Norfolk, Neb.; Brooklyn, Buffalo, and New York City, N. Y.; Fargo, N. D.; Manchester, N. H.; Cleveland, Dayton, and Marion, O.; Berlin, Hamilton, and London, Ont.; Pittsburg and Philadelphia, Penn.; Edinburgh and Alyth, Scotland; Burlington, Vt.; Milwaukee, Racine, and West Superior, Wis.; and Seattle, Wash.

By the common consent of all who were present at this class, the teaching was comprehensive and thorough, yet so practical and replete with plain illustrations as to bring it within the easy grasp of all the students. It embraced the double character of teaching and examination; an important part of the work of the teacher being an inquiry into the fitness of the students or candidates for the exalted office of teaching the sacred subject of Christian Science. This double office seems to have been ably performed by the teacher.
