This involves a study of sociology, history, economics, and politics. The first takes up man ' s place and influence in socisty. History, as taught here at E.M.C. recounts the events of the past, in- terpreting them through a spiritual philoso- phy that takes account of the premise that the most High rules in the affairs of men. Economics and business subjects have to do with the financial problems of govern- ment, commerce, and denominational ac- tivity. Political science is concerned with the functions of government, local, national, and international, with the principles of religious liberty woven through all phases. As one peruses these subjects and looks down the corridors of the past to learn of the achievements and mistakes of all peoples he learns of the rise and fall of empires, of the great artistic and literary productions, most of which remain to us today only in frag- ments. He sees the results of the ambition, greed, and avarice of man, and wonders why there was not more of peace and love and less of war and strife through the ages.

Surely it is a language that tran- cends time and space bringing the aes- thetic feelings and thoughts of the old Masters of many lands across the years and across the seas to give pleasure and inspiration to those who hear its voice. Music knows no national limitations, but all men thrill alike to simple melodies, and beautiful harmonies. Rhythm and tone are a universal language, and the artists ' de- mand for perfection is a challenge to all students of music. The popularity of music at Emmanuel Missionary College is evidenced by the larg- est enrollment in this department that the school has ever known. Astrid Wendlh King. B.M.E.

Great movements have been un- dertaken for the advancement of interna- tional peace, but they quickly crumbled v rhen man ' s ambition and caprice held sv ay. We are now entering a nev atomic age; and man ' s fears for the present and future are greater than at any time, perhaps, in our modern age. Spiritual and moral values seem to have gone with the age just past. As the sincere student studies these things in the light of the unfolding plan of redemption, and analyzes the conflict that has raged between Christ and Satan through the ages; the past and present take on new significance. He notes that God ' s prophetical time clock ticks on and records correctly, and he realizes that man ' s alloted time is running short. H. O. McCumber As Field Representative for the College, Elder Orville A. Dunn, travels throughout the Lake Union visiting students ' parents, conducting Weeks of Prayer and Sabbath services, and contacting the young people whose footsteps should be directed to- ward the halls of Emmanuel Missionary College. Despite his frequent absence from the campus the students know him as a genuine friend, and have learned to depend upon him for his Christian counsel. Earl Bealy. C.P.A.
