We can only evaluate our souls and the souls of others after we have seen Calvary, declares Rob- ert W. Cummings, Director of the Missionary Department. His instruction is Cross-centered. Drawing from years of missionary experience in India, he imparts to students a vision of a Spirit- filled ministry on the foreign field. They are awak- ened to the necessity of first intimately knowing Him who has sent them before they can become true missionaries. Because of Brother Cummings' linguistic aptitude and training, he is able to give students practical language instruction as well as spiritual inspiration. When Mrs. David Drake is the instruc- tor, music lessons are not uninterestingg neither is textbook material dull. Her animation and remarkable sense of hu- mor are manifested in every phase of her life. Helpfulness characterizes her, for in addition to the attention given the individual student in the classroom, Mrs. Drake gladly conducts special help classes. Under her capable guidance, sounds become scale tones, melodies become harmony on paper, and fingers and minds come to know and to remem- ber. By patience and kindness she en- courages students to strive for mastery in music.

Throughout the year, the girls' chorus has rendered selections of beauty and inspiration under her capable direction.

Piano, Rudimerzlr of Murif, Sigh! Singing MRS. JESTON BLEWITT FACULTY R Iulrodurlion 10 Proph- ecy, Propbery I, II, and Ill Qs-.6 n 1 ' ' FRANK M. BOYD .l . There is never a dull moment in the classes of Cordas C. Burnett. Having a jovial disposition, he capitalizes on his sense of humor to maintain stu- dent interest. In American History, it is not un- usual for this energetic instructor to accomplish the task of starting a war, fighting it, and signing the peace treaty in one period. Brother Burnett t loyally adheres to the Bible as Gods special reve- lation to man. In teaching Apologetics he thor- oughly equips his students to defend the Bible as such. Because of his forceful presentation of truth, students await with anticipation his messages in morning chapel. ,,23,,. Ameriran Hirlofy, Apolagelirr, Epiyller I, lxzlmdurlion to Pbilora- pby, Logic' Teaching music is a pleasure to Mrs. jeston Blewitt. A thorough understanding of piano tech- nique enables her to meet the needs of struggling pianists. When a pupil encounters difhcult scales, chords, or inversions, she patiently explains the problem. Her joy when a student succeeds is be- trayed by an almost breathless manner and smile. Realizing the importance of music in the church, Mrs. Blewitt directs her students to a higher level of music appreciation. Her unselfish aim in teach- ing is to train students, not for the present alone, but for a future ministry. Frank M. Boyd, instructor in prophecy, has made such extensive study in this field and preached so many prophetic messages that his associates have often called him the prophet . His vast store- house of knowledge and his direct method of teaching simplify this dith- cult subject. Not only do Brother Boyd's students leave his classes with an in- creased knowledge of prophecy, but also with a determination to apply themselves more diligently in all their work. His busy life adds emphasis to his advice, Don't waste your time and Gods, learn to practice self-discipline. CORDAS C. BURNETT

FACULTY Hirlory CARL I. ERICKSON Ancienl Hirtary, Churrb The classes of Carl I. Erickson are not confined to the mere acquisition of the facts of history, but they are times of devotion where students draw nigh unto God. Personal testimonies of students are added to the usual worship period which be- gins each class at C.B.I. One of his greatest con- tributions has been the stimulation of a desire to increase knowledge by extensive reading in the great works of history. Classes have likewise bene- fited from his repeated exhortation, Be aware of current events. Keep up with the times. In the classroom or on the campus, the life of Brother Erickson is an inspiration to a closer walk with Christ. Class members await with anticipation Chapter Summary, Epit- tlex II and Ill, Syrlem- alir Theology 111 Strong healthy bodies are essential to Christians who plan to be of service to the Lord, says james Fraser, friendly Physical Education instructor. Rig- orous calisthenics, cheerful co-operation, and Christian sportsmanship characterize the gym classes under his supervision. Because of his inter- est in the students, he has organized a thorough year-round program of intramural sports. The re- sponse to this planned activity is seen in the large number of participants. His spirit of helpfulness and cheerfulness around the campus have won him many friends. W. I.

A quiet manner of presenta- tion, interspersed with hearty chuckles, proves delightful to his listeners. Pas- sages are enlightened by his references to personal experiences. This reminds me of the time when . . . , and immedi- ately minds are keenly alerted to hear the practical side of theory. The secret of getting an A in his subjects has been discovered: Watch his facial ex- pression after the examination question is given, particularly as he looks over his glasses, and maintains a faint smile -the answer is obvious. 7 l l l l 1 l 1 if 1 l 1 l 4 l l l i l 1 1 i 1 Q 4 i 4 A l l l -,...J
