GEORGE MARK ELLIOTT, A.B., A.M. Scholar, teacher, writer, man of consecration, and conviction; sponsor of the Class of 1945. In all the activities of the senior class as it has moved through four years of Seminary life, the counsel of Professor Elliott has proved invaluable. The priv- ilege of knowing him and learning from him the truths of the Word shall be a source of challenge and inspiration to each of us in our labors.

Various experiences have been recorded in their lives since they enrolled for the first time. Dur- ing the time spent in preparation for service in His name, their associations with the faculty and with fellow students have greatly enriched their lives. Graduates of the past have recorded great success in the work of the Master, and the class of 1945 is determined that it will prove itself worthy of a place among its predecessors.

During these precious years in The Cincinnati Bible Seminary this comradeship has been abun- dantly blessed. We have witnessed the actualizing of the potential into living realities, and we bow before our heavenly Father in humble gratitude. We confess our many sins and ask for pardon in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. We acknowledge our debt to our alma mater and pledge our constant loyalty to her as she is loyal to Christ and every teaching of His Word. We go out from these halls to the conquest appropriating the uplift of our class motto: “Be strong and of good courage, fear not, nor be affrighted at them: for Jehovah thy God, He it is that doth go with He will fail (Deut. 31:6). The “good fight of the faith” will thee; not thee, nor forsake thee”’ necessitate some hard fighting, but “It is great to be out where the fight is strong, To be where the heaviest troops belong, And fight there for men and God. Oh, it seams the face and it tires the brain; It makes one ache till his friend is pain. But it’s great to be out where the fight is strong, To be where the heaviest troops belong, And fight there for men and God!” I would not indicate that we are to spend our days living in the past, yet I have no sympathy wespspsespsesse esse ee ea ee ee ee ee ee a 25 fe en a Ne ad rd red ee ee ed et ee Se sie ss ee ealest sles Sosy se tee ete - at SEN a Game gs) Coa alam a x of ied vale ie ae ie ot Sac ae Sa N SAAS Be eg ee ed re ee rr ed ed ed et ee ee i Ne SS BS SS SS SRS Ne rofrclocieclediscl tect t fs Ai AS ES SS SS SS te with that sacreligious attitude which spurns pre- cious memories. When the struggle is hard out there on the firing line, may the memories of these years together in The Cincinnati Bible Seminary encour- age us to fight with holy boldness, “casting down imaginations, and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ.” “Be strong! It matters not how deep intrenched the wrong, How hard the battle goes, the day how long; Faint not—fight on! ‘Tomorrow comes the song.” I eagerly acknowledge my gratitude for the privilege of bein g the sponsor of the Class of 1945. Your enthusiastic participation in class activities and the Seminary life in general, your many treasured kindnesses to Mrs. Elliott and myself, your maintenance of the spiritual glow and zeal for Christ—these have refreshed my heart. I thank God and take courage, Dear class members, you will always be in my heart and prayers. May God bless you, every one. “Blest be the tie that binds Our hearts in Christian love; ‘The fellowship of kindred minds Is like to that above.” GeorGE MARK ELLioTt, Sponsor.
