RELIGION and seven Bible-study groups are being conducted once a week, and in each locality where these meet- ings are in progress Present Truth is being distributed each Sabbath afternoon. The Seminar also is becoming more popular, as is evidenced by the fact that on several occasions some were turned away because of lack of room to accommodate them. While it is true that more are turning toward the ministry and Bible work, yet it is also true that there is still a place for every earnest trained man or woman in this part of the Lord ' s work on earth.

SOCIAL SCIENCES The school year 1939-40 will go down as a banner year for the School of Theology of Atlantic Union College. This probably is also true of the Department of Religion, as far as enrollment is concerned, for 260 stu- dents have enrolled in the college courses offered this year. In practical evangelism too, this year ' s attempts have exceeded any- thing during the past lour years. As a result of last year ' s student efforts seven were baptized, and thus far this year eight have begun to keep the commandments and are plan- ning on baptism.

BUSINESS Business Majors The Department of Business Administration and Eco- nomics of the College has served the young people in the Atlantic Union Confer- ence for more than forty years. Its objective at the time it was organized was to train young people to fill positions of bookkeeper and amanuensis. During the years the department has grown until at the present time the work is divided in- to two fields, namely Busi- ness Administration and Secretarial Science. The enrollment this year is forty-five students, all oi whom are earnestly pre- paring themselves for serv- ice as efficient secretaries and accountants. Secretarial Students Irene Ortner
