' You have heard of only the outstanding events, but we feel that the other student activities during our school years have even more greatly benefitted the kingdom of God. Aside from preaching in various churches, Brother Moyer has been an active Sunday School superintendent and rest home leader. Brother Ash is the active assistant pastor of one of our local churches. Along the lines of Sunday School we find our students as able teachers. Brother Keise, Brother and Sister Culter, and Sister-Doris Bucher are teaching in their home churches and their pastors can testify of their wholehearted support in the ministering of the gospel. 4 The Senior class held their own class revival this year and God blessed in divers ways to the good of the kingdom. y We are sorry to leave the portals of D. B. I., but we as Seniors, are viewing the white fields of harvest and as we assemble for the last time on commencement evening our eyes will be viewing the approaching harvest and in our hearts we will be coveting your earnest prayers.

As we review the student's activities during the three years we readily see our senior class has been busy in the work of the Lord. lt was in November of the first year that Ronald Keise, Dean Ash, and LeRoy Ruby met with another member of the Harvester's class and formed D. B. l.'s first quartet. Their ministry was greatly blessed and the experience gained was invaluable. lt was during the summer between our freshman and junior years that many of the students really launched out for God. Donald Keise toured the British owned isle of Jamaica with a Youth For Christ team.
