BETHANY-PENIEL COLLEGE BBTIIANY, OKLAHOMA orrvc: or mr vnzsnnsuv Dear BPG Soldiers : I would like to begin these words of greeting to you with the familiar refrain: Onward Christian Soldiers, marching as to war. with the Cross of Jesus going on before . Betharv-Peniel College is a 'Boot Camp , splendid in conception, valiant in endeavor and impressive in achievement. Her victories have been won under the banner of the Cross. Her spirit is :Lnfectuous and compelling. Nothing more meanztngml can be said oi' her than that the spirit which has characterized her in the past is still alive. Under the able editorship of Howard Conrad the 1953 Arrow Staff has re- viewed Boot Camp on the EPC Campus in B most interesting and colorful manner. Ws wish to salute and decorate them for this unique production that so effect- ively portrsys our rich heritage as an institution, and vividly pictures the outstanding yeer that we are completing. The honored group who will be receiving commissions at Commencement time, and who will be leaving Boot Camp' for active duty, are called to be strong in a confused world, alert in the presence of opportunity and open-eared to the call of God. Boot Campn at BPO has been a new and choice experience for young people, one that has called for training, discipline , hard work, and the pursuing of objectives. Yes, choices have been made. Christ has been made Sevior and General. Friendships , a life work and character patterns have entered the picture. It has all been an important and happy experience. However, let me remind you , that the glory of the soldier is revealed on the battle field, not just at 'Boot Camp . Victory is won in the front lines. In view of this fact it is my earnest prayer that those under marching orders may Live so close to their General that they may be daily under the Spirits guidance , and thus led to say and do that which will bless a world. I prey that they may live so nobly that those with whom they labor may find them lofty in ideals, deep in experience and persistent in effort. This will make them a real force for that which is constructive and inspiring. I further wish for them a life that will be worthy oi' the confidence of their fellow men. These are some of the marks of a good soldier. lic or in the battle for the Lord, . Cantrell, President of the College RHCIIJIX CHARACTER U CULTURE O CHRIST ii. DR. ROY H.
