BIBLICAL INTRODUCTION-That we have our Bible to read and study all Christians rejoice, although few know the many experiences through which it has passed that it may come to us, from God, in all the beauty of its inspired message. The purpose of this course is to search out the origin of the sacred Scriptures, to even enter into the great ex- periences of the precious Word of God in its many trials and hardships, fire and hatred, through which it has passed as God has miraculously preserved it for His people. Though such a study as this is sadly neglected, yet a knowledge of the subject is imperative, because the course is planned to give the student a foundation upon which to build his more detailed Bible study. Included also in the course are suggestions as to quali- iications necessary and methods for 'more fruitful study of the Bible, also a Bird's eye view of the entire Bible. BIBLICAL ANTIQUITIES-The study of the history of all nations from antiquity,-especially Israel in rela- tion to God's plan for the ages, as found in Biblical records and corroborated by archaeological and geolog- ical discoveries.The historical setting of the New Testa- ment is studied together with happenings of the Inter- Testament years. GREEK - ENGLISH 1-NEW TESTAMENT WORD STUDY-This course has the immediate value of giv- ing to the student the deeper meaning contained in Greek words without all the details of grammatical usage.

CHILD EVANGELISM-Our Child Evangelism course teaches the student how to use the knowledge gained in other studies, with methods and materials for making their work with boys and girls practical and efficient. The object of Child Evangelism is to make Christ known to children. The greatest evangelistic oppor- tunity today is among the fifty-seven million youth of our country who are receiving practically no instruction in the Word of God. Child Evangelism differs from the usual Bible teach- ing among boys and girls in that the good news of the Gospel is the central theme in each lesson. The good news is that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures: and that He was buried, and that He arose .again the third day according to the scriptures. I Corinthians 15:3, 4. if ENGLISH 1-This is a course in the fundamentals of English grammar. ENGLISH 2-In this course the student continues the study of English grammar. -if ENGLISH 3-This is a course in composition which helps to equip the student to present effectively the Gospel. It is the aim of these courses to meet the need of those who have not completed their High School courses in English. NOTE: 'F English 1 and 3 are taught by Mrs. John Bullock. ' r MRS. F. L.
