He recalls the trophy buck, but he forgets the sweat involved in pack- ing it out of the hills. Students and staff members of P.B.l. find hunting together valuable. It provides an inexpen- sive source of meat. For students who stay in the province during the summer, they may purchase a resi- dent elk and mule deer license for fourteen dollars. Trip expenses are shared among the members of a party, so a person may only spend thirty dollars for four trips. Almost every season a hunting party will prize one or two animals which they divide. While they hunt primarily for meat, many Prairie hunters say that they also go to get away from the pressure of work and studies. The majestic beauty of God's han- diwork and the physical exercise of hiking rugged hills refreshes body and soul. As one staff member said, lt gives me an outlet that nothing else can offer. For some, hunting trips are an occasion for developing rich per- sonal friendships. Dorm student Mark Hutchins has found a second home with his frequent hunting partner, Henry Hepworth. Mr. Hepworth, the Nimrod of Prairie staff, enjoys fellowshipping with students out in the mountains. He feels it is a part of his ministry here at Prairie. ww 3 3 fD We fit -- 3 5 154' 524' 'fix 'Q 'tw- .

in Realism Proves Profitable Homiletics 3 is good training! If l'm going to be a missionary I'll have to speak in front of people. Carolyn Pennington expresses the feeling of most of the girls in third year homiletics classes. lt is good practice and discipline in the study- ing of God's Word, added Gail Farr. Mr. Russell Cline, who now teaches Homiletics 301, said, I realize that women will not normally be called to the pulpit. However they will have to learn to com- municate Bible truths in a simple and potent way. The value to the fellows is more Prison guard Doug Shortt ushers in the prisoners for the jail service in Homiletics 301 fleftj. apparent. lt gives you an idea of what is involved in being a pastor, remarks Kent Flamquist. John Wiafe also commented, This type of a class is beneficial for anyone who teaches God's Word. Appealing to all students is the informality of this class. The teacher has created a relaxed at- mosphere, observed Orin Kidd. Another student found the messages to be less mechanical than in the first two years of homiletics. The situation sermons are a novelty that the students anticipate. Each student draws a special ser- vice from a hat. Such occasions as Valentine Day banquets, chiIdren's rallies, and graduation parties provide imaginary situations for sermons. Ben Fleed was looking forward to his final night of an evangelistic crusade. He said, At least l'll discover if l'm an evangelist! Most students feel this class gives them realistic preparation. As Ben Reed states, lt forces you to go beyond what you naturally do. But Linda Gasser confides, lt makes me depend on the Lord more, because I can't do it myself. Debbie Woolen
