A I . . . When the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come. ' Mark 4:29 After graduation from Houghton College, the long life of service and sacrifice which Professor Janies W. Elliott has led, began in earnest. After pastoring for a period of time, Prof. Elliott entered the field of missions in Peru in 1920. His graduate work was completed at Middlebury College, in Vermont, and Ohio Wesleyan, after his return to the United States in 1925. Taylor University was the next stage of action in the consecrated life of this faithful Harvester. He was Instructor in Spanish and Bible at Taylor from 1928 to 1934. After this term of teaching Professor Elliott became Rev. Elliott once more. He pastored in Various Indiana Wesleyan Churches until 1943. In 1940 Professor Elliott joined the faculty of Marion College as Instructor in Spanish and Bible. How fortunate we are to have him and his quiet, Christ-like influence which has helped to bring so many souls into the great Harvest! Professor Elliott is not only pastor, evangelist, teacher, and missionary, but writer as well. Besides many, many shorter writings, two of his booklets have been published: Which Way? and The Higher Way. Several other works are in process, one of which he uses as a text. It would be possible to use up more space in listing the contributions and services of Professor Elliott. These incidences of his life, however, are not the reasons we have chosen to turn the thoughts of the 1956 Marionette to him. The theme of this year’s annual is Reaping . . . Harvest. It is in looking for a faithful laborer in the great Field of God that our thoughts have been focused on Professor Elliott. We think of the many kind words secretly sown in the hearts of his students . . . the seeds of sound doctrine that have been scattered abroad in his classes . . . the spring in his heel as he walks . . . the bright smile . . . the kindness, all of these and the many other golden characteristics that make up the man to whom we humbly dedicate the 1956 Marionette, Professor James W. Elliott. 11

WILLIAM FINNEY McCONN, B.O., A.M., D.D. President Marion College lias been favored with the leadership of Dr. McConn since 1932. Some have said that no institution could rise above its leader. No one has been a greater factor in drawing Marion College and its constituency upward than our own president. He has been a laborer in many of Marion’s Harvests. Always, in preparing students for the future, he has tilled the soil with greatest care and sown the best seed available. As the panorama of students he has served passes through our minds, and we glance from face to face of those who have reaped the benefit of a college education under his administration, on many lives we see the clearly defined stamp of his influence.
