5'lYuccali ' M usic Department 'THE MUSIC DEPARTRIENT of the Los Angeles Pacific College has had a gratifying enrollment in all of its departments this year. A violin department has been added, which is indeed an asset. A number of interesting an wort w 1 p g private students have participated as well as the different clubs--orchestra and piano d h h'le ro rams have been given, in which ensemble classes. Among the special programs given was an interesting one by the Schubert girls, under the direction of lllrs. Harden, in honor of the immortal Schubert. We would mention lNIr. Benner, who gave us such a splendid concert. As we listened to his violin we felt again there is no language superior to music. There is not time to enlarge on the work being done by the Treble Clef Club, the Male Chorus, and the Mixed Chorus under the leadership of Mrs. Harden, or the orchestra under Mr. Benner, but they are doing worthwhile work, as are also the Piano Ensemble classes. Nor has the theoretica wor een g Singing, Harmony, and Music History. The time is probably not fa as the mightiest of the arts. l k b ne lected, for there have been classes in Sight r distant when music will stand revealed perchance -C. M. ARCHER. Page F ifty-three

--+2-f Y zz c c a lit - Extension Department THE EXTENSION work among the Mexicans has been successfully carried on during the past year. The Spanish Department at the College supplies a long-felt need. Rev. Juan Romero has taught classes in Spanish Bible, Bible History, and Sunday School Administration, in which the Mexican group has, for the most part, been en- rolled. Rev. B. H. Pearson has carried forward classes throughout the year in Public Speaking, Theology, Logic, Refutation of False Doctrines, and Christian Evidences with the Mexican students and his preachers and workers. There are nine young ladies in the Girls' Training Home, and one of the girls, a former graduate from High School, is acting as assistant of llirs, Beers. Five young men are in the Boy! Home, where lVIrs. Beers lives, taking charge of both the Nlexican Homes. These young people are being carefully trained in the art of home-making, house- hold economy, good citizenship, and gospel work, with the supreme object of evan- gelizing the Mexican people. Instrumental music is taught in both homes by Miss La Verne Ball, while all of the groupare receiving general instruction in speaking English, and two are in regular class work. One of the young men has already filled the position of interpreter with marked ability. Three of the group are in the High School classes at the College, and hope to complete their course in June, 1930. -A. L. BEERS. Page Fifty-two
