a teachers chair, younger children at the front,

ENTER CANON STERLING

A hush falls over the assembled children.
Lois Payne is at the piano
The Canon announces the opening hymn
"DO NO SINFUL ACTION"
The creed is recited
The Lords Prayer
Other prayers
The Rules
BE REGULAR
BE PUNCTUAL
BE ORDERLY
THE MOTTO
LET ME BE PROUD OF MY SCHOOL SO
THAT MY SCHOOL MAY BE PROUD OF ME
The Sunday School class consisted of marking the registers
Seven points: 2 for attendance; 2 for knowing your lesson,
2 for behavior and one for having collection
You said you lessons. The younger children The Caticsim and the older
ones The Collects
The Sunday School paper was read,a story with a moral
A Bible Story
THE CLOSING
With a prayer
And the singing of

"The Doxology"

Praise god from whom all blessings flow
Praise Him all creatures here below
Praise Him ,above Angelic Host
Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost

The Canon raises his hand and makes the Sign
of the Cross over us.....
In the name of the Father and of The Son and of
the Holy Ghost. Amen
The boys leave by the side door
The girl go down the stairs to the front entrance

I am crying too hard to find my way out!!!!!
