Missionary Society will grant them the high privilege of being separated as chosen vessels to carry the water of life to a dry and thirsty people. We praise God that our Saviour's commission, Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature, is laid upon the hearts ofthe student 1'l11SS1011ElI'ICS. CHINATOXYN STREET MIZIYTINGS-Oli XYl'lA'I' EIUY!!!-as we gn out in the G. T. B. I. truck, with happy faces, singing and playing I'll be somewhere working for my Lord, to tell the story of -Iesus to the Chinese every Vtiednesday and Thursday evening. lt makes us feel that we are in China as we see the Chinese children, young men. women and older ones listen to our testimonies. It has filled our hearts with joy as we have seen their interest in the Gospel and their desire to know -lesus. May the graduating missionaries be faithful to the call as they go out from school to labour in Gods great harvest held. Hur prayer is that Nt .JT ONE of them will lose the vision. May God bless the class of '53 and keep them true and faithful. There are many graduates from G. T. B. I. who have responded to the call for the foreign fields. They have given their lives and are now labouring in various parts of the world. The Lord has blessed their ministry and many souls have been born into the Kingdom of God. Can we forget the day Brother and Sister Coughran sailed for that dark and heathen country-India? Brother Coughran is a graduate of the class of '29. It was a very touching scene as we waved our handkerchiefs and sang our farewell to them as they parted from us. We longed for the day when we, too, would start out for our goal. Brother and Sister Simpson, who were here on furlough, returned to China. Sister Simpson is a graduate of the class of 23. May God bless every effort of these missionaries in giving forth the Gospel: our prayers follow them. Uh, young people-God needs you!! XYill you say Here am I. send me as you hear Him calling Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel? The time is short!-,Iesus is coming soon !-and yet there are oh! so many who are ignorant of the saving grace of Jesus. The prayer of my heart is that God shall call the young people out into the great harvest field, which is ripe. Are you going to heed this voice or are you going to close your ears to His call? How can you make a lesser sacrifice when jesus gave His all? XYhat can be more blessed than to be found working for the Master when He comes? As you read these lines may God inspire you tu give your life for His, service. IYill you say when the Master calls, Send me, send me. I am ready now for Thy service, Lord, All I am I give to thee. XYill you say when the Master calls, Send me, I'll go I am ready now for Thy service Lord, Here I am, send me. May God bless each one of you and keep you faithful until He comes, that you may bring your sheaves and lay them at the Masters feet. v ARBIEN TAsHJ1AN. i231
