loyalties to self; loyalties to duty wherever found; and, above all,
_loyalties to the Christ and his ideals_.

1. Do your pupils enjoy the church school, and like to come? Do
they enjoy the lesson hour? By what means do you tell? Is the
spirit of the class good toward the school and toward the class?
How do you judge this?

2. Do your pupils come to the lesson hour full of expectancy? Or
is there an indifference and lack of interest with which you have
to contend? If the class fails in some degree to manifest
expectancy and interest, where do you judge the trouble to lie?
What is the remedy?

3. To what degree do you think your pupils are comprehending and
mastering what you are teaching them? How does their mastery
compare with that secured in the public schools? Have you plans for
making their mastery more complete?

4. Do you judge that your pupils are developing such an attitude
toward the Bible that their interest will carry on beyond the time
they are in your class? Do you think they have an increasing
interest in religion? Are you making these questions one of the
problems of your teaching?

5. Are your pupils developing through the work you are doing a
growing consciousness of God in their lives? Do they count
themselves as children of God? Just what do you believe is the
status of your children spiritually? Do they need conservation or
conversion? What difference will your answer make in your teaching?
