The Christian Workers ' Course is designed especially for those students desiring to become capable and efficient in Christian service. The enrollment was somewhat greater as compared with previous years, attaining in the past year a total of sixteen who have completed the full course while many more took only such subjects as they could along with their academic studies. Both gained much knowledge con- cerning God ' s Word, and were greatly strengthened spiritually. The main social activity of the year was a well attended party held in the home of Mr. A. J. Wingblade at the close of the first semester. The classes were taught by A. J. Wingblade, Miss Esther Sabel, and Prof. E. G. Norstrom, and became increasingly popular with many students. Lives were consecrated to full-time service as they became more acquainted with the Bible and more conscious of the need of laborers. Twenty-two

This membership is made up of the cabinet and each important club or council of the school is allowed to send one representa- tive to the meetings. Therefore the council is a democratic group. The purpose of the council is four-fold; to organize the members of the student body of Bethel, to promote and have general control of the several student activities, to foster a wholesome spirit within the student body, and to encourage friendship and co-operation between the students and also between the various organizations. The officers of past year were: president, Harold Carlson; vice- president, Dana Larson; secretary-treasurer, Violet Carlson; B club, Bob Bergerud; Seminary, Bob Peterson; Religious Council, Arlene Peter- son ; College, Lloyd Norstrom ; Music, Wilbur Erickson ; Publications, Janet Rye; Alexis, Gordon Thompson; and Forensics, Lloyd Sprecher.
