M' . - ' 'ig i , . r, ' I in I 'l - j. ' h 'Q 'Z -sy, Hunting IVIoId Hunting is nine-tenths hard work and one-tenth fun. Flight? lt's strange though, that a hunter only remembers that one-tenth . 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- .

Doctrine Digs Deep I always thought of doctrine as theologians getting together and growing white hair, mused Alvin Flitsema. But then I took Introduc- tion to Doctrine, and it blew my mind. Every class l'd get something new or a new slant to something old. From Wentworth Pike's il- lustrative teaching style to Harold Elliott's witty presentation, doctrine courses stimulate the minds of students. Julie Baird commented about ln- troduction to Doctrine, I didn't realize all the doctrines there are in the Bible. One that impressed me the most was the personality of God. God has become more of a reality, rather than something vague and intangible. Introduction to Doctrine, de- signed and taught by Mr. Wentworth Pike, aims at the clarification of theological ter- minology. I really like the differences made between these termsfsaid Naomi Stobbe. We're studying the attributes of God, and it's making them clearer. Doctrine 201, taught by Miss Ruth Dearing, is a topical study of the Bible. We want to get students acquainted with the themes of the Bible, to get a balanced view, and to formulate their own convictions, said Miss Dearing. The questions this year are greatly different from last year, reflected Les Osbourne. They make you think personally. This Doctrine has given Marlene Seutter a foundation for witnessing. lf you don't have the basis, you can get stumped, she reasoned. lt's happened to me. Someone asked me a question, and umh . .. umh I didn't know where to begin looking for an answer. Miss Dearing's smooth, thorough lectures are packed full of theological quotes and Greek derivations. She gives you a lot of material in class, remarked Gor- don Schwindt, that is, if you can take notes fast enough! CONTINUED
