History of the Senior Class HE harvest truly is plenteous, but the laborers are few. This is perhaps one of the most tragic and challenging statements ever uttered. The Lord Jesus appealed to llis followers to go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature. But in order to carry out this great commission it is necessary to be properly trained for the task. ln order to receive such training approximately one hundred young people enrolled as students in the Bible Institute of Los Angeles in the fall of 1925. This number constitutes the class of TZ7. Twenty denominations are represented in this group, all striving for one living purpose. Some crossed the seas from Japan, New Zealand, Turkey, Norway and lreland. Others came from Alaska and Canada, but most of our students came from some twenty-four states in the Union. School life during the two years has had many interesting features. The faculty proved themselves to be not only teachers, but friends, and too much cannot be said in recognition of their devotion and abilities. Over half of the number of students were self-supporting. The training consisted not only of exercises in the class room but of practical Christian work as Well. The class is proud of its many earnest and capable preachers, childrenls workers, teachers and musicians. A The class of '27 was organized during the Spring term of this year. The officers who were chosen served faithfully and ably. lt is our hope that future classes may proht by our failures and be inspired by our successes. There has been discouragement, but many glorious victories. As we look into the past, we see that God's hand has guided and moulded according to His own gracious will. As our work at the Bible lnstitute draws near to its close, we are confronted with the realization that our training here has better qualified us for a larger and greater service for the Master, who loved us and gave Himself for us.
