. fi i i l path is narrow-therefore, do not wanderg the prize is glorious-therefore, do not faint. The value ofthe Evening School may be summed up in the words of a testimony as given by an l Evening School student: ' l A salesman to be successful must know all I about his product, believe implicitly in its worth, and present it with enthusiasm. Previous to enter- ing Evening School I had at best only a hazy understanding of the great facts underlying my faith in Christ and was, therefore, both ashamed and afraid to attempt any service for the I,ord. I was not satisfied with a blind, unintelligent faith, and only since studying the Bible here at the Institute have I become possessed with a deep and growing conviction concerning its infallibility and power to change lives. This in turn has aroused an earnestness to impart these convictions to others, especially to the young girls in my Sunday School class, and young people to whom I have l the opportunity to testify. The fourth Hoor of the Administration Building overflows with an Evening School crowd. Q V -V .Nl ' L I 1 -,,, I Huw. I to?

vening .gclool The Moody Bible Institute has realized that many young people in or near Chicago long for a better knowledge of the Word of God, and yet to give up their employment and attend the Day School is found impossible. The Evening School was organized in 1903, and through the intervening years more than eighteen thousand students have made regular Tuesday and Friday evening visits to its classes. Seventeen hundred students were enrolled last year alone, establishing :1 new record. Here the young people use their leisure hours to study the Word of God in zz thorough, systematic way, receive instruction in gospel music, and obtain training in practical methods of Christian work. The work is solemn-therefore, do not trifieg the task is difficult-therefore, do not relaxg the opportunity is brief-therefore, do not delayg the Page 26 An Evening School student speaks before Mrs, Al1ison's Bible Story Itllmg class
