FOREWORIl- The flaming flame shall not be quenched. Eze. 20:47 The process of kindling the flame for Chris- tian- education at Pine Forge Institute has come a long way. Our endeavor is to portray the 'progress realized since the flame was first kindled in the hearts and minds of the pioneers. The zeal and enthusiasm engendered have not diminished with time but have been nurtured and guarded jealously and passed on by each new recipient. The flame glowing brilliantly shines as an illustrious monument to the courage and stamina 5 ' our predecessors. As students of '55 we can do no less. Our aim is to reach out and grasp the torch, blaze new trails of service and forge ahead to greater heights of achievement for God and man. C0 'PET 1. Dedication ..... Page 5 2. Administration. . .
