ELIZABETH GIESBRECHT Willing to Serve In the Old Testament two types of ser¬ vants are mentioned. There are hired ser¬ vants who have rights and receive wages. Then there are bondservants or slaves who have no rights, no appeal and serve without wages. From the New Testament it is clear that the Lord Jesus Christ expects Christians to take the latter position. For sometime God has spoken to me through Luke 17:7-10 concerning the mat¬ ter of serving Him as a bondservant. In this passage we note several marks of such a slave. He must be willing to have one thing on Child Evangelism in the Sunday School Although S. iS. is for all age groups, from one to a hundred, this article deals specifi¬ cally with child evangelism. Amidst the pressure of organization, at¬ tendance building, and teaching, ‘the main purpose of the S. S. must not be pushed into the background This purpose is (1) to build the kingdom of God iby winning the pupils for Christ, and (2) to bu ' ild the kingdom of God by deepening the spiritual lives of the converts. This two-fold purpose requires daily prayer, weekly planning, preparation and Continued on page 42 MRS.

Is the food ready for him wihen he comes home weary? No, he is expected to prepare the meal and serve his master before he can sit down to eat. The servant seemingly does all that is expected of him wihout a murmur. A bondslave must not expect thanks,. We are willing to serve the Lord and others, expecting praise at the least. How we com¬ plain ' if we are not shown appreciation! The hired servant can expect thanks as well as wages, not the bondservant. In the passage under consideration, the servant does not charge the master with selfishness. From the human standpoint it would seem he is inconsiderate. But the servant lives to serve his master, irrespec¬ tive of the treatment accorded him. Having done all that, the servant confes¬ ses to being unworthy and to only having done his duty. In ourselves we are of no use to God. It is Jesus Christ, the Bond- servant. Who makes us willing to serve and as He works in and through us we become useful in the service of the King.

Our Cooks fTjl i 7® 0 ■ MISS ELIZABETH REIMER MISS SARA FALK HEAD COOK ASSISTANT COOK Kitchen Calculations “The turnpike road to most peoples hearts, I find lies through their mouths, or I mis¬ take mankind.” Wolcott. Though such delicacies as thick juicy steaks, apple pie a la mode and fany jelly molds are of rare occurence, the efficiency and planning of the cook, and with the help of the students it ' is amazing what new delicious and nourishing dishes are created, and set before our eager eyes. Paging through the Dictionary of Thoughts I icame aicross this epigram. “Economy is the parent of integrity, of li¬ berty, and of ease; and the beauteous sis¬ ter of temperance, of cheerfulness and health.” This, we find mirrored ' in the lives of our cooks, Miss Elizabeth Reimer from Giroux and Miss Sara Falk from Plum Coulee, Man. It is a great responsibility to fill the emptiness and hollowness of some eighty-five students, and the cooks must be able to foresee contingencies and provide against them. It is quite interesting to see, at the sound of the first bell, the students lining up in the corridor, waiting for the second sum- MISS AGATHA FAST ASSISTANT SECRETARY mons after which they can quench their insatiable appetites. The cooks play a vital part ' in the prepa¬ ration of lives for the Lord’s service. With¬ out them this training would not be pos¬ sible. May the Lord reward them for their faithfulness. —Margaret Dyck 16
