THESE TIMES Wins Souls!

A t one time members of the Seventh-day Adventist church, Mr. and Mrs. Roy Chunn had pretty well lost interest in the Adventist message with the passing years. Because of the pressure of financial problems, en­thusiasm for a church program had dwindled away.

But the Chunns had a friend who took the gospel commission seriously and felt the true follower of Christ will give a literal, modern-day applica­tion to the lesson the Saviour taught in the parable of the one lost sheep. Mrs. Nobie Brown had known the Chunns for a number of years and had been grieved when they left the church.

Apparently there was nothing that could be done to win them back. Oc­casionally someone would pay the Chunns a friendly visit or invite them to attend church, but it seemed no real interest could be engendered in leading them to again unite with God’s people.

Puzzled about what to do, Mrs. Brown began sending the Chunns a subscription to These Times magazine, quietly praying that its monthly mis­sionary visit m ight succeed where the visits and interest of friends had failed. Surely there must be some way of bringing them back to the fold!

At first the Chunns did not pay too much attention to the magazine or its contents. But as it kept on coming, both Mr. and Mrs. Chunns found themselves almost irresistibly attracted to its contents by the beautifully de­signed color cover and the attractive and artistic layout within. They began reading, and as they did so, the Spirit

HOMEMADE BAPTISTRYLUHUTUTU, AFRICA—Desir­

ing to conduct a baptism in the Kalahari Desert, Dr. J. A. Hay met the superintendent in Kanye. They caused quite a stir among the inhabitants of the area surround­ing the mission as the folk in this arid region had never seen such a service before.

The pastors dug a hole in the sand four feet wide and six and a half feet long and lined it with new sailcloth. After filling the de­pressed area with water, they pro­ceeded with the baptism. (From

Says Mrs. Chunn: “At first I thought I wouldn’t pay much attention to the magazine. Neither Roy nor I had any immediate plans of returning to the church. But there was an irresistible quality about the magazine. W e had been able to ignore the invitations of friends to return to the church, but we found it impossible to leave These Times alone. And every issue seemed to be designed especially for us, pro­claiming in the most unforgettable way: ‘This is present truth; you should be numbered with God’s rem nant peo­ple.’ In a matter of months we found ourselves reading These Times from cover to cover; it was succeeding where our friends had failed.”

As the magazine kept coming, the Chunns began discussing what they ought to do about the three angels’ messages. An excellent health article, plus the moving of the Spirit of God, led Mr. Chunn to give up smoking. A feeling came into the hearts of both that in view of the imminence of the coming of Christ, they should be ready for their Lord’s return.

Finally Roy could stand it no long­er. Laying aside a copy of These Times magazine one evening, he said emphatically to his wife, “I hjiow that this is the tru th .”

Systematic Giving—

The Three Per Cent Planby G . R. N a s h , Secretary, General Conference Sabbath School Department

CME Graduates 255L o m a L i n d a —The 47th a n n u a l

commencement exercises for the Col­lege of Medical Evangelists are sche­duled for the weekend of June 5-7. At this time a total of 255 students from C.M.E’s different schools will re­ceive their degrees.

Speakers for the weekend events in­clude D r. Richard Lewis, of the Paci­fic Press Publishing Association, who will deliver the commencement address in the Redlands Bowl Sunday evening; Eld. M. V. Campbell, chairman of the C.M.E Board of Trustees and gen­eral vice-president of the General Con­ference of Seventh-day Adventists, who will give the baccalaureate sermon Sabbath at Pasadena’s Civic Audi­torium ; and Eld. L. R. Rasmussen, educational secretary of the Pacific Union Conference of Seventh-day Ad­ventists, who will speak at the Friday evening services in the W hite Memo­rial church.

Among the graduates will be several from the Lake Union Conference; and they are listed here according to the school in which they have been en­rolled. School of Medicine—Gerald Abel, Douglas Benson, Ralph Boyd, Robert H ittle, George Kieler, Bernard Marsh, Lester Medford, and Charles Simmons; School of Dentistry—Willis Fox, Bruce Oliver, Max Rusher; School of N ursing— Bernice Moore, W inona Craig and Sue M ont Pas.

o----CME Dental Students

Receive AwardsTw o Lake Union Conference stu­

dents were among the sixteen senior students of the School of Dentistry at the College of Medical Evangelists to be honored for scholastic and per­formance excellence at the school’s third annual Honors Convocation Ban­quet held in mid-May.

W illis M. Fox and Bruce D. Oliver both received Mosby Book Awards in recognition of their scholastic record and their promise of continuing pro­fessional growth. The awards con­sisted of a certificate entitling them to thirty dollars worth of dental reference books.

In order to be qualified for the hon­ors, both students had to be among the top one-third of their class scho­lastically and possess qualities for fu­ture professional and spiritual growth and attainm ent.

“This matter of giving is not to be left to impulse. God has given us definite instruction in regard to it. He has specified tithes and offerings as the measure of our obligation. And He desires us to give regularly and systematically . . . After the tithe is set apart, let gifts and offerings be apportioned, ‘as God hath prospered’ you.”— Counsels on Stewardship, pp. 80, 81.

God, through His chosen mes­senger, is here very definitely telling us that we are to plan our offerings in ad­vance on a syste­matic basis. God has laid down a policy for tithe.No matter what our personal desires may be or how pressing our needs we are commanded, by the Giver of all, to return our 10 per cent in tithe. The same scripture that mentions tithe also mentions offerings. Here no per­centage is mentioned but the Biblical rule is ilas God hath prospered” you. 1 Cor. 16:2.

Faithfulness in tithes and offerings brings upon the believer one of the richest blessings of all the Bible; where­as unfaithfulness in either, or both, brings the curse mentioned in Mala- chi 3:8-10. Surely no true Seventh-day Adventist desires to see the cause of God suffer, or personally wishes to receive the curse of God. But because of leaving their giving to impulse, some are guilty of robbing God in offerings. God expects us to be as systematic in the giving of offerings as we are in our tithes.

“The plan of systematic benevolence will prove a safeguard to every family against temptations to spend means for needless things, and especially will it prove a blessing to the rich by guarding them from indulging in ex­travagances.” —Testimonies, vol. 3, p. 412.

This means that we should budget our offerings to missions, just as we

budget our income to care for our family needs. A Christian budget which leaves out the tithe and offerings is surely an unbalanced budget, even if all other items are taken care of in a business-like manner. Yet it is a fact that some Sabbath school mem­bers, because of having no definite system of offerings, are actually rob­bing God. It might be enlightening to take a pencil and do a little figur­ing just now. W hat percentage of your total income are you giving to the Sabbath school?

“God’s requirements come first. W e are not doing His will if we conse­crate to H im what is left of our in­come after all our imaginary wants have been supplied. Before any part of our earnings is consumed, we should take out and present to H im that portion which He claims. . . W hen that which God claims is rendered to H im , the remainder will be sanctified and blessed to our own use. But when a man robs God by withholding that which He requires, His curse rests upon the whole.”—Testimonies, Vol. 4, p. 477.

W hat percentage of the income shall be allocated for Sabbath school offer­ings? Since this is a matter of personal conscience, one that each individual m ust decide between himself and God, no man or organization should attempt to set the percentage for another to give. Surely we should give freely and cheerfully. Furtherm ore, we should give in proportion to our income, or ‘‘as God hath prospered.”

It is this portion which reflects our sacrificial spirit and true liberality. “God has made men His stewards. The property which H e has placed in their hands is the means that H e has provided for the spread of the gospel. To those who prove them ­selves faithful stewards He will com­mit greater trusts. Saith the Lord, ‘Them that honor me, I will honor’ (1 Samuel 2:30}.”—Patriarchs and Prophets, p. 529.

Many are systematically returning 3 per cent of their income to the Lord as Sabbath school offerings. This

June 2, 1959, Vol. LI, No. 22 3

plan has the General Conference Sab­bath School Departm ent’s approval and is one which we believe will bring a blessing to the giver and also the cause of missions.

Is this too much for us to give for Sabbath school offerings? My heart says, No! No! W e are not nearly reaching the record of Israel, who gave from one fourth to one third of their income to religious and benevo­lent causes. To answer the question more specifically, let me say that in N orth America for a period of eight years— 1924 to 1932—we averaged more than 3 per cent of the income dollar for Sabbath school offerings. The peak was 3.7 per cent. In other words, for the above mentioned years our Sabbath school offerings amounted to over 30 per cent of the church tithe.

“In the last extremity, before this work shall close, thousands will be cheerfully laid upon the altar. Men and women will feel it a blessed privilege to share in the work of preparing souls to stand in the great day of God, and they will give hundreds as readily as dollars are given now.

“If the love of Christ were burning in the hearts of His professed people, we would see the same spirit mani­fested today. D id they but realize how near is the end of all work for the salvation of souls, they would sacri­fice their possessions as freely as did the members of the early church. They would work for the advancement of G od’s cause as earnestly as worldly men labor to acquire riches. Tact and skill would be exercised, and earnest and unselfish labor put forth to ac­quire means, not to hoard, but to pour into the treasury of the Lord.” —Coun­sels on Stewardship, pp. 40, 41.

Some can and should give $5.00 or $10 as readily as some others can give fifty cents. The 3 per cent plan is for both the rich and the poor. However, if all would follow the plan it would greatly swell our mission offerings. If you find that you are exceeding 3 per cent, then by all means con­tinue to do so. The 3 per cent plan should be our minimum goal. In the N orth American Division, since 1944 our per capita Sabbath School offer­ings have changed very little; how­ever, our tithe has increased by 158.6

Students Dedicate Lives at B.V.A.

Conducting a week of prayer at Broadview Academy makes one realize the importance and value of Chris­tian schools. To hear the students talk of how wonderfully God has led them and how they would never think of re­turning to a public school, makes one realize that the purposes of Broad­view Academy are being fulfilled.

Testimonies from the students were refreshing to the soul.

Victory over defects of character is their goal. W ith earnest prayers they are working to form a Christ-like character. Tears also were shed in be­half of their parents. Oh, what bur­dens they carry, and what anxiety and love they have for their folk. W e are responsible, before God, to train our children to follow the teachings of Christ rather than place them under the influence of those who do not have confidence in God and teach con­trary to Bible truths.

“In planning for the education of their children outside the home, par­ents should realize that it is no longer safe to send them to the public school, and should endeavor to send them to schools where they will obtain an edu­cation based on a scriptural founda­tion.

“Some of God’s people perm it their children to attend the public schools, where they mingle with those who are corrupt in morals. In these schools their children can neither study the Bible nor learn its principles. Christian parents, you must make provision for your children to be educated in our schools” —Child Guidance, pp. 304 305.

W hat a joy comes to the heart as one sees Christian teachers who are consecrated to the Lord doing every­thing possible to train our youth for Christ. In addition to being trained teachers these faculty members have a personal experience with Christ. For this reason they are leading our youth to dedicate themselves to the service of God. Their great aim as true teach­ers is: “by precept and example to win souls to Christ,” and “the perfecting of Christian character in himself and in his students.” Counsel to Teachers, pp. 67, 68.

perfectly the love and equality that exists among God’s children. As you observe the relationship between the students you cannot help but feel that God is leading them.

W e can look with pride and ad­miration to the students at Broadview who realize that their school buildings have not been completely built, but are glad to make sacrifice for the sake of getting a Christian education. W hat a privilege to sacrifice for God’s work for in so doing the Christian life will surely grow spiritually and be­comes enriched with experiences that will not only strengthen their own convictions but will serve as an in­spiration to all those who are con­templating a Christian education at one our schools.

TH E PASTO R 'S V IE W P O IN T

W e are told in the Scriptures that our Lord, after His resurrection, “showed himself alive, by many infall­ible proofs, being seen of them 40 days and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.” These proofs gave positive assurance that H e was the same Jesus who had been with them a few days before. The necessity for these proofs is self-evident. There was to be no confusion here. W ith a deep faith in a living Christ, the apost­les went out conquering and to con­quer.

It is quite obvious that no Christian movement can accomplish much unless its adherents have developed a deep faith in a living Christ. The strength of the church today, as it was then, does not reside in material resources, or talented people, but in an abiding trust in a Lord who is alive, ready to perform great exploits in response to simple faith.

There should come to each one of us, as time goes on, an ever increasing awareness of the fact that we constitute the Israel of God in our day, commis­sioned with a special task for our day. We have many infallible proofs for this, namely:

1. T he conviction permeating our ranks that a solemn responsibility rests upon us to take the T hird Angel’s message to all the world.

2. The amazing spread of our med­ical services in all lands.

3. T he God-given philosophy of edu­cation that not only trains but saves our youth.

W here else can we go to find a pro­gram of education that matches ours? Some have the three R’s but that is in­complete. W e have the three R’s and the three H ’s; the training of the hand, the head and the heart. It is impossible to conceive of our being the people of God, if we did not have this type of education. It is one of the infallible proofs that our movement is of God and is destined to succeed.

D uring the past several months, we in Illinois have been reminded of the needs that face us at newBroad- view Academy. Surely God has brought us to this location. H e has opened the way for a glorious pro­gram of education. The possibilities for growth along the three H ’s are tre­mendous because the surroundings are so ideal. OUR G REA TEST W ORK IS T O T R A IN AND SAVE OUR

Y O U TH . God has given us a splendid place to do this. Let us take a firm grip on our task, and under God, move forward sacrificially, ever conscious of a Christ, who is alive, and ready to permorm great exploits if we only be­lieve. P. M. M a t a c io

BAPTISM HELD A T ITALIAN CHURCH

Sabbath morning, April 25, dawned warm with bright radiant sunshine, but it could not compare with the ra­diance on the faces of Mr. and Mrs. Vallentine and Mrs. Deavers who had just been baptized by Eld. A. Castel­buono of the Italian-American church of Chicago.

There was a special blessing for all who witnessed the discarding of sin into the watery grave. Many members were moved to testify of their own victory over sin. The spirit of God touched the hearts of 14 more souls who stood up to attest their desire for baptism in the future. It was a day of great rejoicing. W e know that all is possible with God.

BROADVIEW ACADEMY FACULTY SPEAK

A Successful Business Life“It is a matter of great

importance that students obtain an education that will fit them for successful business life. . . . The com­mon b r a n c h e s must be thoroughly mastered, and a knowledge of bookkeep­ing should be considered as important as a knowl­edge of gram m ar.”—Coun­sel to Teachers, p. 218.

Following the counsel given us, Broadview Acad­emy offers its students this knowledge that is so im­portant to them in their personal affairs as well as in business.

O ther offerings, such as typewriting, shorthand, and office practice, are designed to meet the personal as well as voca­tional needs of the students.

INDIANAOffice practice is the newest subject

offered. In it study is made of various office occupations and the skills and qualities necessary for this work. Stu­dents gain working knowledge of var­ious office machines. O ther units of study include filing, communications, typewriting letters and business papers, employment standards, and applying for a position. All through the course, emphasis is placed on office work as done in our denomination.

The business education department is an ideal place for students to devel­op desirable habits and character traits such as neatness, honesty, persistence, promptness, self-confidence, and im­proved powers of concentration. Along with gaining basic skills and facts, the students may develop mental capacities through reasoning and judgm ent.

For the student who desires a prac­tical training for whatever work he plans to undertake; or, for the student who desires vocational competence, the business education department of Broadview Academy welcomes you.

Dyresen Family Says FarewellEight years have passed since the

Dyresen family arrived in Indiana from Minnesota. For four years I was the pastor in the Anderson district, and for four years I was principal at Indiana academy. For six years I have been a member of the Conference com­mittee and the Academy Board. I have preached in most of the churches in the state, and I have attended eight camp meetings at Cicero where for some time I was camp superintendent. My daughter, Arna, began church school in Anderson and graduated at Cicero. Donald will finish eighth grade next year in the church school on the E.M.C. campus. D uring these years I have seen ministers coming and go­ing, until I felt more and more like an “old-timer.” By now only two are left of those who were in Indiana when I arrived.

Twenty years ago I arrived on theE.M.C. campus as a student, just hav­ing crossed the Atlantic. W orld W ar II began while I was on the high seas. Now I am returning to work there as registrar.

Soon after I had accepted the call, several other faculty members at In­diana Academy accepted calls away from there.

O ur librarian and Social Studies teacher, Mary Lou Peckham is going to Atlantic Union college as registrar. Lowell Smith, instrumental teacher, is going to Southern Missionary col­lege. Three academy teachers trans­ferring to college work in one year is a good “batting average” for a small academy. Mrs. Virginia Lamb, our food service director, is going to the new and modern cafeteria at Shenan­doah Valley academy. Mr. Lester Hal- vorsen is taking one year leave of ab­sence from denominational service to do graduate study. Miss Helen C. Craig, our dean of girls, is going back to church school teaching, this time in New Jersey. Miss Emily Robinson, English teacher and registrar, is going into business in California, while our Home Economics teacher, Miss Joyce Sivertson, is getting married.

T he Dyresen family is not going far. W e are just crossing one state line. W e will still deal with Indiana stu­dents. But we will not be Hoosiers any longer, and we feel that an important chapter in our experience is over. W e

6 l a k e u n i o n h i r a l d

appreciate the friendships we have formed in the Hoosier state, among church members as well as among public officials with whom we had to deal on behalf of Indiana Academy.

Speakers You Will Want to Hear

Eld. A. A. Esteb, associate secretary of the H om e Missionary Department of the General Conference will be on our camp ground June 12-17. H e has always been an inspiration wherever he served. You will want to hear his presentations.

Eld. F. A. Soper, editor of “Listen” magazine will be with us the first Friday and Sabbath.

Eld. J. A. Buckwalter, Religious Liberty secretary of the General Con­ference will be with us only two days, June 14 and 15. He will speak to us on the current developments in

religious liberty and the subject of hypnotism and spiritualism and its rapid development.

Holly Youth Institute VBS for Adults

This year in planning for the Vaca­tion Bible school it has been decided to include something for the adults. Commencing eight weeks prior to the Vacation Bible School, cottage meeting ings were started in eight different homes by the young people of the church.

Eight teams, selected by the pastor, are holding these cottage meetings ac­cording to the plan outlined in “Op­eration Fireside.” The last of the eight meetings will be held the first week of the Vacation Bible School. The next week will commence two weeks of a special summer school for adults with meetings every night.

After the first week enthusiasm a- mong the young people rose to an all- time high. “It was wonderful.” “I d idn’t know I could enjoy any experi­ence so much.” These were typical of the remarks heard after the project got under way.

Pray for these young people and the folks who are attending their cottage meetings.

Detroit Baptism Adds 56 New Members

Four adjoining churches in the De­troit metropolitan area held a baptism on May 16, during which 56 candi­dates were baptized. W hile a number were taking part in commencement exercises terminating a school program, these were made to feel the thrill of another commencement.

Vested primary choirs from Farm ­ington, Livonia, and Metropolitan churches contributed music.

Eight persons were from Detroit Oakwood, ten from Livonia, thirteen from Farmington, and fifteen from Detroit Metropolitan.

Thirteen young people from South­field Junior Academy were part of this number, having received instruc­tion under the leadership of Bill Edsell.

New Youth Camp InitiatedThe new Scott Lake Camp is now

in operation.T w o hundred fifty pastors, church

officers and lay members met at the new camp in southwestern Michigan on Sunday, May 17, to give it a formal initiation.

T he arriving guests found a ball game in full swing and other sports including boating in progress. It did not take long to get a good appetite whetted and mid-day found all gravi­tating to the picnic area where culin­ary expert, Leslie lies, Battle Creek, and his crew had food in readiness.

W ith dinner completed all had a chance to see the proposed construc­tion and to view first hand the excel­lent location for the new camp. The 80-acre site, located on north and south Scott Lakes in Van Buren coun­ty in southwestern Michigan, fills a long-felt need for this section of the state. The camp is easily reached by going two miles north of Glendale and west about one and a half miles to the sign at the entrance.

Although the only visible improve­ments were a new road and well, pla­cards m arked the location of proposed buildings. The new camp will serve as a strong adjunct to Camp Au Sable which is running to full capacity,

Chief function at the camp for the immediate future will be the use by family and church groups. W ith a full

round of junior camps during the summer Camp Au Sable is c l o s e d to these groups. S c o t t L a k e Camp however will fill this need. Ad­ventist family groups are welcomed to come in and use the camping area. The only restriction is that flowers and shrubs remain undisturbed. Larger groups, such as Pathfinder clubs or church parties, can reserve space by contacting the MV Department.

Development of the camp is well underway. Eldon McKibben, a mem­ber of the Bangor church, is donating the construction of the new road and the refurbishing of the beach where sand is needed. Clearing of the land where needed will be done by Don Piper, also of Bangor. Gail Doll, Ber­rien Springs, made the first donation to the project and has already put down a four-inch well which is now in use. W ork this summer will include the construction of bathroom facilities and the fixing of the beach. Other work will then be done as funds come in.

All churches within a radius of 150 miles of the camp are being asked to take up a liberal offering for the new project. The Conference has made the first step by purchasing the camp. The improvements will depend upon the members of the local churches.

T he MV Department invites con­tributions for Scott Lake Camp. Make

the new camp a subject for prayer and remember it with your offerings. Wills and legacies will be welcomed. Your investment in the recreational facilities of your church will mold the future for youngsters as well as the older members.

ELD. AN D MRS. WALLACE BID FAREWELL

It is now almost two weeks since we left Wisconsin for our new home in South Lancaster, Mass.

It was not an easy decision for us to make to leave the Lake Union.It is our home—our children and our families are there.

D uring the past fourteen years we have labored in three of the four states of the Lake Union Conference.It has been a pleasure to meet and be associated with you through the years. Even though we will be meet­ing new people and making new friends, it will be impossible for us to forget the old ones back in the Lake Union.

May God bless you always, and keep you faithful until He comes and we shall never part again.

O ur new address is 20 Sylvan Road, South Lancaster, Mass. If ever any of you should come this way, vacationing or otherwise, do stop and see us.

H e was amazed when he saw the boys doing so much of the work. H e gave the boys a bit of good advice about being faithful in their work. H e told them that they would be able to count this work on their apprenticeship re­quirements should they choose to go into this type of work. Then he told one of the construction managers that the quality of workmanship that these boys were doing was superior to that of many of the union workers. He complimented those in charge and went on his way.

O ur goal is to have this first section of the building completely enclosed by fall. The roof-decking, windows, heat­ing materials, etc., have been ordered. I must confess that we have gone on a bit of faith in letting these bids. We believe our people will come through with money to keep moving ahead. W e wish we had funds to complete this first unit by fall so it could be ready for use when school opens; you can help make this possible.

T he national statistics show that the total enrollment in American schools will increase 36 per cent during the next decade. Friends, where will you be forced to send your children from your churches, from your homes, un­less we press ahead and get this building project finished? This is a real problem facing not only the pub-

11

lie schools but our church-operated schools.

W on’t you give with me, and pray with me, and concern yourselves with those of us who are trying to make our little contribution here for the youth of Wisconsin. Let us all pray earnestly that God will bless this pro­ject as H e has blessed in the other building projects on this campus.

3 Percent ( from page jour)per cent. D uring 1957 our Sabbath school offerings represented only ap­proximately 1.5 per cent of our denom­inational income dollars—based on tithe income. In other words, the 3 per cent plan would have increased our total income for N orth America by approximately 50 per cent.

There is no conflict between the Biblical goal of “as God hath pros­pered” and the suggested 3 per cent plan. The Lord instituted the plan of systematic benevolence to combat the trait of selfishness which is present in every hum an heart.

“Men are not naturally inclined to be benevolent, but to be sordid and avaricious, and to live for self. And Satan is ever ready to present the ad­vantages to be gained by using all their means for selfish, worldly pur­poses; he is glad when he can in­fluence them to shirk duty and rob God in tithes and offerings. But not one is excused in this matter. ‘Let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him .’ The poor and the rich, the young men and the young women who earn wages— all are to lay by a portion; for God claims it. The spiritual prosperity of every member of the church depends on personal effort and strict fidelity to God.”—Testimonies, vol. 5, p. 382.

“The liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand” (Isaiah 32:8). Also remember the words of the apostle Paul in 2 Corin­thians 9:6, 7: “But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth boun­tifully shall reap also bountifully. Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.”

God will bless you as you do your best for H im .

Dr. Fabian meier to Become Vice PresidentW A L L A W A L L A D E A N TO A S S U M E D U T IES IN JU L Y

Dr. Fabian Meier, dean of Walla Walla college, College Place, Wash., recently accepted the invitation to become the vice president for the new university being established on the E.M.C. campus. Dr. Meier’s duties will be primarily in connection with the undergraduate program, stated President F. O. Rittenhouse. However, he will also serve as an adminis­trator for the graduate school.

The new administrative position became necessary following the decision to transfer the Potomac university to Berrien Springs.

A native of Oklahoma, Dr. Meier has been at W alla Walla college since 1951—the first three years as dean of men, and, until present, dean of the college.

In 1942 he received his B.A. degree at Union college and his Master’s degree in 1948 from Ohio State university. He was granted the Ph.D. degree in 1955.

Other posts he has held in Adventist schools include dean of boys at Oak Park academy, Nevada, Iowa, and Mt. Vernon academy, Mt. Vernon, Ohio, and registrar and teacher at Takoma academy, Takom a Park, Md.

Dr. Meier is a member of the American Personnel and Guidance as­sociation and the American Association of School Administrators.

Dr. and Mrs. Meier and their two boys, Paul, 13, and Mark, 10, are expected on the college campus shortly after the beginning of summer school, stated the president.

“Dr. Meier has made a very successful record in each of the adminis­trative posts he has held thus far,” commented Dr. Rittenhouse, “and I have no doubt that he will give us strength and stability in the larger program which is to be inaugurated here in the immediate future.”

Seniors Donate Fountain for Ad Building Lobby

As their parting gift, the 1959 seniors presented to the college a new drink­ing fountain in the Administration building lobby.

In the picture below, John Nerness installs the new water cooler (fore­ground), replacing the old one (back­ground) which in recent months did not always yield cool, clear water.

E.M.C. Writers Win 71 Per Cent of Pen League Awards

The English department of Emm an­uel Missionary college distributed $225 in Pen League awards to 12 students in an assembly program Monday, May 18.

Five of the 12 students won 71 per cent of the total am ount awarded to the nine Adventist colleges in N orth America in the Advanced Writers di­vision, according to W alter Crandall, editor of the Youth’s Instructor. The Pen League is an annual writing con­test sponsored by the Instructor in which students from all the Adventist colleges in N orth America are invited to participate.

Grand prize of $50 went to Mike Jones, of G rand Rapids, for his story on smoking, “Just One More.” Bruce Ronk, of Prospect Heights, 111., won the only first prize in the nation-wide competition, $35, with his back-to-col- lege story, “Flight 88.”

DR. FAB IAN MEIER

Marjorie Abel, of Berrien Springs, won a second award of $25 with her story, “Give and Take.” Ronald Bissell, of Auburn, Wash., and Fritz Martin- sen, of Halden, Norway, won a third award and honorable mention respec­tively.

Eighteen other E.M.C. students won lesser honors for their writing.
