CSIISISTIJ lNr Cr3 TI02 T. •jj-UNE 8, 93, will close a school j-ear long to be remembered as a red letter one in the history of the Christian work in Monmouth College. Not ?lone in those channels in which we have worked for years has there been manifested unwonted zeal, bin new lines have been taken up and prosecuted with heartfelt earnestness. Viewing the human instrumentality, the Christian work in the college is indebted most to Mr Hunt for his unflagging leadership and example of consecrated Christian manhood. In each of the college and preparatory classes is a devotional committee having supervision over the weekly class prayer meetings. The weekly college meeting for praj ' er is held on Monday evening, the Christian Union holding its meetings the first Sabbath evening of each month. Eighty- two students have been engaged in systematic Bible study throughout the year. This number is divided into nine classes: seven Training classes for personal work, two Devotional classes. The nine leaders hold monthly meetings for prayer and conference. Each class meets weekly. The general committee having oversight of all these classes consists of Walter Hopping, Sara Norcross and Josephine Nichol. A week ' s lectures on the books of the Bible with special study in the book of . mos was given in January by Prof. W. W. White. A volunteer mission band of seven members was organized in the fall term. In its weekly meetings this band has made a study of the different mission fields. S. W. Findley is leader. Eighteen copies of distinctly missionary periodicals are taken by the students. A number of speakers from abroad have addressed us on this important subject, and monthly missionary meetings have been held in the chapel. Elizabeth Findley is chairman of the missionary committee. Delegates from the Christian Union were sent to the summer schools at Lake Geneva and Northfield
