Missionary Society which have always been profitable and inspiring. It is always a joy to hear from those who have been in the field of service. They tell of the sacrifices, sufferings, loneliness, and hardships but they also tell of the victories won-the joy of seeing the light shine into darkened hearts. On Thursday night a group of about eighteen goes to Chinatown. Off they go, singing and playing-happy faces, joyful hearts, eager to tell the wonderful story of love to the Chinese. There are over thirty graduates who have answered the call and have left all that is near and dear to them to labor for the Xlaster in all parts of the world. There are scenes never to be forgotten as they sail, one by one, to the country to which God has called them. All are doing a valiant work, God is answering prayer, and souls are being saved. Brother Richard VVilliams, who has been laboring in Nlexico and Peru, finished his work in this world and has been promoted to glory-called to be with Jesus whom he loved and served so faithfully while here on earth. XVho is going to till his place? Listen reader, Jesus is saying, Take up thy cross and follow me. He needs you, give Him your all, leave what He asks you to leave, go and do your part in the harvest. You who have been holding back, hanging on ,to the natural things, not heeding His voice, can you do less than const-crate your life to Him and be willing to go where He may send? Jesus left the Celestial Portals, His Heavenly Home. to come all the way to this earth as the first hlissionary to give His life for you. XVhy did He do it? It was love, LOVE, LOVE. Has God blessed the lvlissionary Band? In unison we say, 'iAmen. Pray that God will continue to bless every effort for the advancement of His Kingdom and the propagation of this glorious gospel in this land and in every land until He shall come. May His richest blessing rest upon the Class of 1932, and may God lead each one according to His infinite wisdom, and l-:eep them faithful. Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of lifefl ESTH ER E. QEREXVS GAVE GLAD TIDINGS GRADUATE MISSIONARIES LABORING IN FOREIGN LANDS AFRICA Eric Johnson J. YV.

Good news of a Saviour who died to save from sin, for all have sinned and Come short of the glory of God, and all need to be saved. Jesus said, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creaturef' This Great Commission was given to the disciples, but the call reaches down to the church of this day also. Some may think they have no part in missionary work, but all are called to do something for those unfortunate souls who know nothing about the Saviour who loved them and died to deliver them from darkness and degradation. Those who haven't a call to go to some foreign country have a part to do just the same. It may just be in giving of their means, or in giving of their time in prayer and intercession. Wliatever their ministry is, may God stir them to work as never before. for the night is far spent and the day is at hand. Throughout this year, as in times past, the missionary spirit has prevailed. God has singularly blessed this school year as many students have heard the lVIacedonian Call and have responded to the need of the regions beyond. Together with the num- ber of students who had already received calls to the mission fields, the number grew to fifty or more, and it was deemed advisable to organize. This was done some months ago, and now there is a lvlissionary Society with a president, vice-president and secretary-treasurer. Every Sunday we have our missionary meeting. This time is spent in prayer except when there are talks by returned missionaries or by the students themselves, Thirty
