Although the amount so gained be small compaiatively still the fact of the step in that direction having been taken it is hoped that something more con sideiable will ere long be effected, the need of such a building being more and more , felt. I have to tender my sincere thanks to the teachers for their patient, faithful, and un tiring efforts during the year, and to ex press my gratification at the pleasant and haimonious spirit which has characterised the it work during the past yeai. | The school is still in want of teachers, particularly adult male teachers for the i boys' classes. Although teaching in a Sunday school most undoubtedly requires a considerable amount of self denial, chiefly at first, I can confidently assure any who may hesitate to undertake the work that were they once to take an interest m it the} would not like to give up the teaching or to part with their class. It has always been the object of the teaching at St. Luke's Sunday school to make it, as far as possible, of such a nature as to foster amongst the children a love for the sonool and its work, and for one another, and I humbly hope that such a lesult has been gained.
