This was especially true of those who were fortunate enough to live under the same roof at 804 Fremont. Mrs. Johnson is always ready with a kind word of help and advice for the student і� need of comfort, As with all families, Mrs. Johnson's children bagan to go their separate ways. First the oldest son was married and moved on to another state, and then, as m y others did, he went into the army. Next to leave was the daughter. She married Lloyd Taylor. A month later the youngest son went away to service | in the Navy. Those were lonely days. It was not long though before they began returning home. First, Lloyd ` Taylor was called back to Manhattan Bible College as a member of the faculty. Then, the youngest son, Dan, returned to enter the Bible College as a student. Mrs. Johnson deserves all the credit we can give her for the part she has had in the building of Mans hattan Bible College even though much of her work is done behind the scenes. She has had a tremei 3 job laid upon her shoulders and has done it local church and has been а sponsor of the M chapter of Kappa Beta, a national college organ tion of Christian young women, She has taken p in many civic activities.

Johnson On a dusky January day, Dan Pitner, a prominent farmer of Sevier County in East Tennessee, announced the birth of his seventh child, a girl, Pearl Lee Pitner. The family was very faithful to its Presbyterian faith. Dan Pitner was an elder and deacon in the local church for over fifty years. It was a God fearing home in which Pearl, her four brothers and three sisters grew up. Her life there on (he Tennessee farm was similar to that of any average girl of that day. There was work to b e done. but there was also time for play. As she grew older her father sent her to one of the local schools to learn her ABC's. When Pearl was thirteen years old, her mother died and much of the work was laid upon Pearl's shoulders since all but one of her sisters had married by this time, She continued to keep house for her father unti! the time of her own mar- riage. Pitners lived only four miles from Johnson Bible College so it was not strange that Pearl should meet Tom Johnson. He had come to Johnson in the fall of 1912, but it Was not until 1914 that he met Miss Pitner. In September, 1917, Mr. Johnson and Miss Pitner were married by Doctor Ashley S. Johnson. In 1918 the Johnsons moved to Enid, Oklahoma, In . 1920 the family moved back to Johnson Bible Col- - lege, and then finally on to Manhattan, Kansas. By this time the Johnsons had three children: William . Pitner Johnson was the oldest; then came Dorothy finally, Daniel Thomas, Besides caring ly.

HISTORY of Manhattan Bible College for support, and which adjacency makes an excellent outlet for the services of young men and young women who are ready to go out from the school over the weekend to preach. Perhaps no other college among “us” Is so strategically located. Just across the street from Manhattan Bible College stretches the campus of the Kansas State College of Agriculture and Ap- plied Science. This offers a wonderful opportunity to students of both schools for ۵ well-rounded, Christian education. The purpose of Manhattan Bible College is to train preachers and other Christian workers who will be loyal to the Christ, and to His Church, as pre- sented in the Scriptures. Manhattan Bible College seeks to be Christian in the fullest meaning of the term. The College believes that the final and only authoritative statement of the Christian Religion 15 in the New Testament. Christian conduct 15 expected of all students in the College. Any student found unable to conduct himself as a Christian صا‎ the College, community, or elsewhere will be dismissed from the College. Just be a Christian gentleman or lady and you will be acceptable to the institution. Mt. 7:12 is an excellent guide. It sometimes becomes necessary to apply some practical applica- tions to the general rule of conduct. All students are required to attend Sunday Church service. During the twenty years of the history of the Bible College over one hundred people have been graduated from her halls. Many of this number are preachers, others preacher's wives, some missionaries, and several re outstanding Christian leaders. We are assured that this is merely the introduction to the history of a great institution, which has as its aim, to train young men and young women for loyal consecrated service for Christ, who is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. `. In 1927. a Bible College was founded in Manhattan, Kansas, by Eugene Bible University of Eugene, Ore- gon. For two years this college remained a child of Eugene. In 1929, all property belonging to the Bible College founded by Eugene in Manhattan in 1927, was deeded by the Eugene Bible University, to a new corporation. known as Christian Workers’ University. Manhattan Bible College came into being on June 20, 1930, when Christian Workers' University 6 all of its holdings to Manhattan Bible College, which was chartered on that date, and which institution has functioned from that date to the present. 1937 was a sad year for the school, when due to depression and drouth, the Bible College was forced to give up the property which was deeded to Man- hattan Bible College in 1930. The school was not one to give up і� despair, but in 1940 started a build- ing fund which reached a total of $17,000 by Septem- ber 1, 1943. Negotiations were started for the purchase of the above mentioned building. An agreement was reached which enabled the Bible College to buy this building at a cost of $26,500. Immediately the Bible College began a campaign to raise an additional $9,500. This building was purchased on a two year's contra However, the financial response was so excellent that. only four and one-half months were necessary to obtain the money to recelve the deed to the property. Four years ago the Bible College purchased the frame building in which school was held during the period when it did not have possession of the above men- tioned building. The school is well located both from the standpoint of convenience and that of cultural and educational opportunitles. Both the Union Pacific and the Rock Island Railroads pass through the city as well as T , Highways 40 and 24, The school is within reach ive hundred congregations to which we may look .. —The history of any school depends upon its students. — --УІШ-- Facts Faculty Office Force OFFICE FORCE OFFICE SECRETARY ELIZABETH MORRISON VIRGIL V.

ELIZABETH MORRISON, office secretary, smiled when we asked her if she liked her work and said, Oh, very much.” The students here at M.B.C. see Mrs. Morrison each time they walk past the door, but she is always busily engaged in her work and they in theirs. Therefore, most of the students know very little about her. Elizabeth has been office secretary since the mid- dle of December when Aline Olson resigned to be married. President Johnson played safe in hiring a new secretary by getting one that is already mar- 432728 3 3 Music Chalk Art Thru the Years Specific Specialties Christian Service Camps Recreation preach the message in this way. Most oí ihe men the chorus are student-ministers and this is a double opportunity for them to deliver the message of the Lord. CHAPEL CHOIR Т� е first mixed chorus of Manhattan Bible College was organized in the fall of 1943. It was composed of those people who enjoyed singing and the fellowship it included. The choir was called upon to give its first concert at Milford, Kansas. The past two years it has made several tours and given several concerts. Since our lovely chapel has been completed, with a capacity of only 18 in the choir loft, the number of choristers has had to be reduced. The eighteen per- sons selected compose our Chapel Choir that serves at our regular Wednesday evening chapel services. This organization is looking forward to the acqui: tion of choir robes for future tours and concerts. VOICE LESSONS Professor Lown in his spare moments gives pri- vate voice instruction. Each semester he schedules as many private lesson pupils as he possibly can, but the demand is far greater than the supply. The lucky few gain much from this individual coaching both in actual improvement of tone quality and in gaining self confidence. PIANO LESSONS Piano lessons are taught by Mrs. Larry Barnes (Morine to us). Many students take advantage of this chance to improve their playing and quite a few take up the subject as beginners. They have an op- portunity to show their skill—or at least their progress —at recitals held periodically. Morine also offers organ instruction. CONDUCTING The class in the Art of Conducting is a popular one. It includes instruction in leading group singing as well as choir direction. It is more or less a labora- tory in which the student is taught the fundamentals and then given actual practice in trying to express through facial expressions and body movements his interpretation of a musical score in such a way as to get the desired results from the singers. Besides these music groups, there are several small groups such as quartets, (1105, octets, and the like, some of which have been formed at the suggestion of Professor Lown, and others merely by students get- ting together to sing.” Yes, this department has wonderful possibilities. It is up to the student as to whether or not full ad- vantage is taken of them. س The Deva: to College offers valmabie trami varied forms. 1t is a compis curriculum and is expan partment has wonderfi as a unit to congrecati individual betterment. Last year there was an orchestra under the direc- tion of Larry Barnes, but due to temporary difficulties the orchestra was noL able to function this year, Рег- haps in the future it can be revived. The music groups in operation this year include the following. GIRLS' GLEE CLUB The Girls' Glee Club of Manhattan Bible College Hes organized in September, 1945. by Prof. W. F. wn. The following officers were elected at the beginning. of the current semester: Margie Forster, president; secretary, Helen Nelson; treasurer. Vada Ruth Ward; librarian, Mabel Fowler. Three times a week the girls rehearse, and at- tendance is required unless the absentee has adequate reason for being absent. Each member must main- tain a certain scholastic rating. This Glee Club, combined with the Chapel Choir and the Men's Chorus. presented an Easter cantata ас the Bible College. Т� е group may also give special concerts when it is desirable and possible to have that number of voices. T. The girls that compose the Glee Club feel that it is a privilege to serve the Master in this capacity, and hope that their efforts will help others to know and love the Christ, MEN'S CHORUS The Men's Chorus of Manhattan Bible College is now in its fourth year of activity. It was organized at the beginning of the fall semester in 1944 by Prof. Wilford Lown. Its purpose was two-fold. First to take tbe gospel in song to those who could be reached and second to recruit a ministry by the witness these sing- ins ministers can bear to others. The first semester of this year, the Men's Chorus was nearly inactive because Prof. Lown was on leave of absence working on his masters degree at Kansas State College, However, they did make one trip to To- peka to sing for the Laymen's League meeting. The semester extensive trips as singing to all parts of the state were scheduled. Lown is back training them with three practices week, and he is being capably assisted by A.

Each student enrolled who meets the requirements receives one-third of an hour's credit per semester. The field of chalk illustration in worship and in church school work seems unlimited. Jesus used the common things of life to teach the people about Him. Can we not impress upon the minds of people great spiritual truths by drawing the common scenes of life? Students find a great joy and peace in mastering the art of illustrating songs with colored chalk and realize a deeper appreciation of nature. Truly it can be said that by a close observance of His handiwork all are drawn closer to God. D. Carr, M. Donovan, Randall, Hoffman, Sutton, Nelson. Platt, M. Benson. Teacher: Hahlbeck. CHALK ART ‘One picture is worth a thousand words —this is the modern version of Confuscius' famous saying, One seeing is worth a thousand tellings. Psychologists agree that we learn twenty per cent more through the sense of sight than we learn through all the other senses combined and eighty per cent more than through any other one sense. Chalk pictures truly il- lustrate when words fail. Since pictures appeal to the imagination of both c hildren and adults, song illustrating is in great de- mand.

It was out of a conviction such as this that the first MANHATTAN BIBLE COLLEGE DAY evolved. The spring of 1943 found a comparatively small group gathered in the Bible College Chapel for the Test launching under the sponsorship of the E. T. A. men's fraternity. It was the conviction of both faculty and student body that God had a purpose for man, and that it was ours to unite men with that purpose. This could be done, in part, through acquainting youth and adults with the college and its constituency. 1944 was a promising example of what the day could berome, as representatives came from a number of Churches, to join in the occasion. The following year the proportions had grown such that Churches were necessarily limited in the nunmber of delegates they could send . This greatest of all days in the school pro- gram had by this time, almost become an institu- teion in itself. Remember the many long hours we spent in preparation? We'll never forget the great times we have had. So fine has been the spiritual uplift for all who have attended; the spirit of conse- cration that has so permeated the services, whether in worship or in play; and the leadership of the young men of the school, in planning the activities of and selecting the speakers for the day, that it is little wonder that MBC Day has become what it has as it enters the fifth consecutive year. We looked forward during the war years to the time when all restrictions could be removed and Manhat- tan Bible College Day could have an opportunity to prove its true worth. On May 2, 1946, young people and Christian leaders of the territory which Manhat- tan Bible College serves, joined with us in the great- est MBC Day in history. The theme was Contend Earnestly for the Faith. And now, as the MABICO goes to press, we have every reason to believe that this year will be better yet, MBC Day this year is being held on Thursday, May 1, 1947, and the theme will be Study to Show Thyself Approved. We re- 215 SOCIAL COMMITTEE One way we understand each other better is by fellowship through social activity. In developing the four-fold life, the social phase has its value. With these ideas in mind, the social committee planned all- school activities. Т� е first party of the year was а reception for new students to give them an opportunity to get ac- quainted with the faculty and with the other stu- dents. The party was sponsored by the faculty but students assisted. Its plan was to give the new stu- dents a bird’s-eye-view of life at М. В. С. Some of this was exaggerated—especially the student bur- lesque of the faculty, and the skit presented by the faculty depicting their problems in dealing with stu- dents—but all was done in the spirit of fun and re- ceived as such. This party as well as all those pro- moted by the social committee was preceded by an inspirational chapel service and concluded with a friendship circle. A similar party was held a t the beginning of the second semester. The Halloween and Christmas parties were also sponsored by the social committee. The former was planned and carried out by the E. T. A. and the sec- ond by the Sundoulai. Both parties were sources of fun and fellowship. The reception held at the beginning of the second semester was the only social function promoted by the social committee that term. Social activities planned by the students and various organizations of the school were approved by the committee. These, with the activities of M. B. C. Day and the All-school banquet proved to be enough to round out the social program of the college. MANHATTAN BIBLE COLLEGE DAY God has life plan for every human life in the eternal counsels of His will. When He arranged the destiny of every star and every sand-grain and every grass blade and each of those tiny insects which live but for an hour, the Creator had a thought for you and me. It was a thought of what we were to be, of. missionary to the Salween Valley. Due to unforeseen circumstances he was unable to be with us until the next evening, but we were lifted spiritually by the singing and prayers, and short articles were read about three of the College's own boys who have gone out as?? As the Mabico goes to press, the third missionary banquet is still a thing of the future, but extensive plans have been made and it should be a great suc- cess, The guest speaker is to be Tibbs Maxey, Presi- dent of the College of the Scriptures, a school for Negroes, located in Louisville, Kentucky. The theme for the whole evening is based upon this school in an effort to give us ۵ vivid picture of life at the College of the Scriptures. The theme will be carried out in decorations, Negro music, and readings. Again the banquet is to be sacrificial—the proceeds going to the College of the Scriptures. As a special added feature, sacrificial corsages and boutonnieres are being sold. These will be made of artificial flowers of vary- ing colors and will have a rolled-up dollar bill at- tached. This dollar bill is to be removed at the ban- quet and put, with the amount of money that a ban- quet would ordinarily cost, under the individual's plate. This banquet is open to anyone who wants to come and it should prove an inspirational expe- rience to all who attend. SENIOR DINNER One of the advantages of graduating from Manhat- tan Bible College is being entertained at a dinner given by the faculty. This is something for us un- dergraduates to look forward to, and according to rumor it is really something. Senior dinner held for the Mid-term Graduates—1947 Joice that each year (his occasion has gained in strength and usefulness to us all. As the years come and go we look forward with certainty, that Manhattan Bible College Day has won itself a place in the hearts of the students and faculty of our school and into the lives of all peoples who have had contact with her. ALL-SCHOOL BANQUET The Spring Banquet began in 1931 for the purpose of a get-together for the students and faculty. It continued as such for some time, but as the College continued to grow, this came to be the all-school ban- quet sponsored by the Juniors in honor of the Seniors. Jt is held in Kohler Hall at the Christian Church some time during the month of May. The ladies of the Church prepare and serve the dinner for which we are deeply grateful. This is a gala occasion and being semi-formal, the day is full of excitement—talking about formals, cor- sages, and naturally dates. As we arrive at Kohler Hall snapshots are taken, then we proceed down- stairs where an exchange of greetings takes place. Finally we are permitted to enter the banquet room. It is beautiful; Everyone finds his respective place and a quietness fills the room, for we wish to thank our Lord for these blessings. Throughout the dinner there is singing, special numbers, and last but not least each Senior is permitted to give a short im- promptu talk. This year there was quite a bit of discussion about discontinuing the all-school banquet and having mere- ly a Junior-Senlor banquet because of the increasing size of the school. Fortunately it was decided that this change was not necessary this year, and we have falth that as more space and serving facilities are needed In the future they will be provided. We feel that this is an important part of the school life and, not only does it add to the school spirit, but it is one way of honoring the Seniors. MISSIONARY BANQUET The Student Volunteers Organization is responsible for a banquet the beginning of the second semester. The first one was held in 1945. Dr. Rothermel was the speaker. The second missionary banquet was held February 19, 1946, at Kohler Hall. Since it was for the purpose of advancing missionary work it was sacrificial. The room was impressive in its simplicity—the tables had been set and the light of the candles fell upon the open Word of God. Our speaker was to have been LaVerne Morse, youngest son of Russell Morse, —CHRISTIAN SERVICE CAMPS— places for outdoor classes, outdoor recreational fa- cilities, including a boating pond, two swimming pools, softball diamond, a shuffleboard court, etc. The facilities, the attendance, and the courses have grown considerably since the founding of the camp. This year the camp runs for two weeks with an in- termediate camp, a high school and an adult camp, and a course running consecutively with the others whereby an hour of college credit is given to high school graduates taking the course. The value of Camp Wa-Shun-Ga may be appre- ciated most by looking at the results. Many have been won to Christ and many have gone into full time Christian service as a result of attending Camp Wa- Shun-Ga. With God's help this work will continue for many more profitable years. PAWNEE LAKE CHRISTIAN SERVICE CAMP О� ? of the newest Christian Service Camps held its pioneer meeting at Pawnee Lake near Guide Rock, Nebraska, in July of 1946. Sixty seven enthusiastic young people spent a week of joyous living in God's out-of-doors. Warren Hockman was a pioneer leader. Т� е missionaries were Harold Taylor, China, and Remi Duhon, of the French Arcadian Missions, Louisiana. One faculty member, Charles Selby of Clay Center, Ne- braska. is going to the Philippines as a missionary this year. Dean Hill from Nebraska Christian College was also a member of the faculty. During the course of the camp there were seven baptisims and five who became life-time recruits. Lat- er two more life dedications resulted from decisions made at the camp. Two scholarships to Nebraska Christian College were awarded. The theme was Authority of Jesus Christ and the mornings were filled with studying the different phases of authority. Recreation in the afternoon in- cluded boating, swimming, fishing, archery, and other games. The evenings were evangelistic services and camp-fire meetings. The closing camp service was ۵ Galilean service. Plans are under way for two camps this year—a week of junior camp followed by another week of older young people. The dates have been set for the first part of July. Other than the Hockmans, six Manhattan Bible College students attended the camp. cC SUN SPRINGS Delegates and Faculty in 1946 The Sun Springs Christian Service Camp, which is now several years old continues to grow, as it renders service to the Kingdom of God. The purpose of the camp is to train and inspire young men and women in the work of Christ. It faithfully plants the true seed of the Kingdom of God in the hearts of the young people who attend it. It constantly encourages life dedications to the work of the Lord Jesus Christ. And it also seeks to point lost souls to the Christ of Calvary . The camp has high standards and is satis- fied with nothing less than complete loyalty to Christ. The Lord has richly blessed the efforts of the camp. At the present time there are several young people attending Manhattan Bible College as the result of the camp. Last year the camp experienced many mountain top experiences, and the spirit of Christ was felt in every session. I am sure that the deepest ex- periences were those when we witnessed the young men and women yielding their hearts to Christ. These were great victories for Christ. We feel that this is only an example of what shall continue to be under God's leadership. WA-SHUN-GA Camp Wa-Shun-Ga was started in 1939, with Ver- n Newland organizing the camp and Neal Lovell camp manager. The camp is located 15 miles of Junction City, Kansas, 1% miles off 77.

His Master has other work for him to до. Students and alumni of Manhattan Bible College have already dedicated a memorial piano to the mem- ory of Warren Dittemore, but the most fitt ing memo- rial is being made by individuals who will take up the work he began. We pray that many others will be challenged by his spirit to take up where he laid down the sword and carry on. —IN MEMORIAM “Warren Dittemore, young, brilliant, spiritual, evan- gelistic, went forth in youth's own way into a land not his own, having been challenged by the call of a rest- less country and her heathen people, that he might serve under the blood-stained banner of Christ as a soldier of the cross. Warren came to М. В. С. from Kansas State College when he decided to become a servant In the leadership of the church. He wanted to become a medical mission- ary. A favorite book was the life story of Dr. A. L. Shelton who gave his life for the cause of Christ in Tibet. While in school, Warren was student pastor for a number of nearby churches, During that time he was ordained to the Christian ministry by his home church at Severence, Kansas, President T. H. Johnson deliv- ered the ordination sermon and assisted the elders of the church in formally setting apart Warren P. Dittemore to the ministry, One of the elders, George Dittemore, is Warren's father. After completing his A. B. work at Manhattan Bible College, Warren studied at Butler University and at Moody Bible Institute, His studies included mission- ary medicine, minor surgery, dentistry, cobbling, car- pentry and language in addition to his Bible studies. Several years after having settled my interest on Tibet, Warren wrote, it was my good fortune to meet Miss Isabel Maxey of that field. We were wed in Cincinnati, May 1, 1943. A son, Jonathan Tibbs, was born that year and three months later was taken to the Lord, Their daughter, Janet Leigh, was born May 24, 1945, Warren Dittemore served but a short time as a missionary. He died in China, August 5, 1946, and —32— —ALUMNI— Cary, Harland, B.B.L. )Collegio Biblico. Cary, Mrs, Harland, B.B.L. )Eawle Pass, Texas. Lewis, Dwight E, A.B.

Our catalogue says that attendance at the midweek chapel service is required of all Bible College students. How- ever, it is understood that this statement would sel- dom need to be made and then for only those who would not otherwise attend. Through the years these folk have been few indeed. This service is open to the public and many State College students and not a few townspeople have been in our services. It has been our privilege to have a great many preachers come to us in this midweek worship service and our hearts have thrilled to the great messages as the Gospel, God's power unto salvation. It has been the custom for our professors together with speakers from outside the school to fill the pulpit the first semester, while during the second semester our seniors have brought the messages. Upper classmen preside at these services and the Chapel helps to lead the wor- ship. The volces of the congregation echoing the hymns through our college halls becomes a symbol of our sending the Word ringing throughout the whole wide earth. A student in the Prayer Room. ېږ‎ w � ه‎ + MATTHEW VALARIUS CHAPEL It takes more prayer to run a Bible College than most of us realize. But it is encouraging to realize that there actually is more prayer involved than any of us realize, save The One who hears and answers. First, the brethren in the churches pray (as they give financial support) for God to bless the college faculty and to raise up young men and women for the Christian mintstry. Young people pray while trying to decide whether or not to enter the Lord's regular army. Professors pray for wisdom, strength, and humility as they prepare to meet their classes. Students pray for open minds to receive God's truth, and zealous energy to carry it out, Literally hundreds pray daily for some phase of М. В, C.'s ministry, Let us look in on the daily devotional life In Man- hattan. It begins early in the morning. Someone, perhaps a student or a professor, may be seen rev- erently entering the “uppper room. Our prayer room is on the third floor and 15 equipped simply with a table, on which rests a Bible and a book of daily de- votional helps, chairs (small groups often enter the simple sanctuary that two or three may pray (0- gether), and a picture of Christ praying і� the ва den. To insure complete privacy, a sign on the out- ‚side of the door states whether or not the room is in use. All through the day the arrow on the door might head busy. At nine forty-five, on days when classes are in ses- sion, studies are laid aside and students and faculty gather outside the door of Valarlus Chapel. Here they may be seen conversing in small groups until the tones of the chapel organ are heard. The chapel doors swing out to receive those who are instantly trans- ned into a hushed, reverent throng.

One life has already been dedicated to the foreign mission field. Watch this class, for from it with the help of the Lord, will come some earnest workers for the fields which are whiten- ed unto harvest. No class history is complete unless the class of- ficers are mentioned. Our president, Dick Sutherlin is the young man from Indiana; vice president is Al- vin Daetwiler, a Kansanite; as secretary, Mary Mar- garet Laughter represents Missouri; and Ruth Smith an Illini, is our treasurer. Last but not least, Lloyd Taylor, who is taking graduate work at Phillips Uni- versity this semester, is our sponsor. —42— ‘This seems to be the place where there is usually some mention of “green freshmen,” but contrary to custom, into the halls of М. B. С. strolled 31 intel- ligent young people who were confidently ready to take ۵ deeper plunge into the pool of learning. These apparently-above-average young people have come to this school to become educated so that they may be- come more efficient in the work of Christ's Kingdom, The students of this freshman class have come to- Gether from seven states: Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Kansas. From the members of this class it is hoped and ex- pected that there will be some great evangelists, SPECIAL STUDENTS—1946-47 : Peterson, Rock, M. Fowler, L. Fowler, S. Schreiber, Escritt, Sutton.

This class, upon declining an invitation to join the freshman class, was first organized in September, 1945. Douglas Donovan served very efficiently as the president the first year of organization. The class of 46-47 has been functioning under the direction of: president, Wayne E. Schreiber: vice pres- ident, Charles Elmo Shea; secretary-treasurer, Mrs, James Lackey (first semester); student council rep- resentative, Carol Clark: and faculty advisor, Prof. James B. Carr. Two of the five preparatory students will com- plete their requirements for college entry this year: namely, Carol Clark and Wayne E. Schreiber. When enrolling in Manhattan Bible College a few Students are classified as, Special Every one who sees this terms asks, What does that mean? We like to tell the other students that that title means we are superior to them, but as Christians, we are equal. The term special has been applied by the college administration to the students enrolled in less than twelve semester hours of college work. This does not mean that these students are afraid of work, They are working! This class consists of ministers' wives, preparatory students, and young ladies who work for their living as well as for their education. We are thankful that preparatory work (high School! is offered for the benefit of students who have not completed high school and yet have given = WAYNE E. SCHREIBER grade education. The students who take preparatory work will be permitted to carry a minimum amount of college work at the same time, The college is glad to give young men and young women this op- portunity, to continue their education, and to prepare them for fuller service for Christ and His Church. Each year several graduate from this Department and enter into the Bible College. We congratulate Carol and Wayne upon their completion of this work and are looking forward with them to the time when they shall be graduated from M. B. C.

The principal reason is that some of the best prospects for the ministry decide to preach after the normal age to attend high school has been passed. Т� е greater number of such students would never get а college education. if they had to take their high school work through the regular channels. Therefore, that they may have a college education, we maintain a Preparatory Department.

Once during the school year, the Student Volunteers have a missionary banquet which is in the form of а sacrificial banquet and the guest speaker is a missionary from some foreign or home mission field. This year's banquet was centered around the Col- lege of the Scriptures, Louisville, Kentucky, with President Tibbs Maxey of that school as speaker. Generous contributions have also been sent to several missionaries, Another important feature of the second semester was the presentation of The King of Kings, This picture was shown by Lynn Delehoy of the Central Avenue Christian Church, Topeka, Kansas. The Student Volunteers is not an old organization but already its accomplishments have been great. Its members are ready and willing to work, and with God's help they will carry out even more extensive projects in the future.

Membership in Student Volunteers is open to all who are recruits for missionary service and to anyone interested in missions. Meetings are held every third Tuesday evening of each month, AS it is the aim of Student Volunteers to serve whenever possible, there are several ways this has been done in our own community, Every Friday evening, several car loads of Student Volunteers and others go out to the I.

Some of the outstanding ones this year are: making and putting up signs on the highways at the edge of Manhattan telling of the Bi- ble College, providing flowers and potted plants for the chapel, acquiring a missionary fund, sending get- well cards to those who were ill, and calling on the shut-ins.

That is what the women of Manhattan Bible College are striving to do as they meet together on the first Mon- day of each month. This organization has been in ехізбе� се since September 27, 1935, and has been steadily growing each year, Т� е members include the girls who are themselves students at M. B. C. and those who are wives of students, or faculty members. Sundoulai has sought to promote a closer fellow- ship among the girls of Manhattan Bible College by working and serving together through this organiza- tion, The members participate in many activities of Middle E.

A chart showing the name of each student minister, his church. and the Sunday morning attendance is posted. A map of the ter- ritory served by student preachers is placed on a bulletin board so that transportation problems can be ironed out more easily.

The past school year gave birth to a new organi- zation at Manhattan Bible College. It chose for it- self the name CHRISTIAN VETERANS' LEAGUE and had as its objective the promotion of Christ among the war veterans who were enrolled in Manhattan Bi- ble College. Other objectives were: to promote fellow- ship among the veterans and to carry out projects which the members of the organization deemed worthy: Out of the infancy of last year's organization grew а larger and stronger fellowship. The membership is now not limited to M. B. C. veterans but to any veteran who considers himself a Christian and wishes to affil- late with the C. V. L. Although the C. V. L. has not promoted any social events, several worthy projects are being carried out.

АП- School pictures were taken after the beginning of the second semester. The written material was assigned to different stu- dents. Art work and anything that had to do with the looks of the annual was supervised by the art editor. The deadline for all material to be at the press was April 1. Due to great sacrifice on the part of a few and with their cooperation, the MABICO “dummy” of final material was taken to the press Monday, March 31 This is but the second year of publication of the MABICO, named by combining the first two letters of each of the words in Manhattan Bible College. We, The Staff.” feel this book will be held very dear to all students, for it holds many fond memories of MBC during 46 and 47 which otherwise might be forgotten nnd lost. The editor, Cryder Brayshaw began preparations for the 7 MABICO as soon as he was elected in the spring of 1946. For a staff he selected the following Douglas Donovan, Associate Editor; Elva May Biehl Art Editor; Wayne Schreiber, Sec.-Treas.; Brady К Fowler, Business Manager; Larry Barnes and Charles Cook, Adv. Mgrs.; Carol Clark, Historian; Pearl Hoff- man and Verna Gene Sutton, Typists; and Lloyd Tay- lor, Faculty Advisor. Arrangements were made for printing. binding and photography, and soon after the beginning of the school year the staff was called together to organize and make plans for the an- nual. Each was assigned specific duties to be carried out. The goal was to produce the finest book possible for 1946-47. Meetings were called throughout the year for consultation, advice, and further planning Soon subscriptions were being taken by the business manager. The School's amateur photographers snap- ped candid shots at every opportunity. Advertising CE Without Which-Could Not Be The MABICO wheels went 'round and 'round O'er many ۵ bump and a ditch it found. The staff—it sweated and fussed and stewed— Pulled out its hair and its fingernails chewed. But all this work would have been for naught If space in these pages had not been bought.
