We will all pray daily for you Though we're far from here. We must part now for He calls us To a wider field, And though we are loath to leave you, For His sake, we yield. P.B.T.S., don't forget us As we go our way, And while we are in His service, For us won't you pray? Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a Workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 11 Timothy 2:15 This page sponsored by Practical Bible Training School, Bible School Park, N.Y.

'For the Lord God ? will help meg there- . fore shall I not be confounded, there- fore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. Isaiah 50:7 REV. Joi-IN A. DAVIS, D. D. FOUNDER The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life. Proverbs 11:30 REES have always had a universal influence on the rest of creation. Poets have sung of their beauty, artists have been inspired by them g heathen have even worshipped them. They have provided homes for the birds and squirrels as well as food, shade, and shelter for man. As we look into the life of John A. Davis, we find that trees seemed to be milestones marking out his entire pathway. During an evangelistic campaign when he was eighteen years old, he was pointed to Calvary's Tree, where the Lamb of God had borne his sins, and the young farm lad became a new creature in Christ. It was beneath an old apple tree a few months later that he dedicated his life for the Lord's service. From that time on he was a burning evangel, constantly giving out the Word of truth to lost souls. In many ways John A. Davis was like a tree himself, for out of this sturdy trunk, firmly rooted in the soil of faith, came many branches--souls whom he won to Christ and trained for his service. Though he has long been gone to Glory, his influence continues to live on in the lives of his students. If a Practical graduate seems to be zealous, practical, and self'sacrificing, one should not wonder, for he, as a branch of the tree, will naturally resemble the tree from which he grew. --Woodrow Brown This page sponsored by Practical Bible Training School, Bible School Park, N.
