I only know that He has gone To make a place for me Some dawn, Or even : ng light He ' ll come for me ' Till then there is a task that He Has set for me, His last command— TO PREACH THE WORD 1 heart and hand, Be consecrated to His Cause Spend strength and purse and store, nor pause Until that wondrous prize is won— HIS TENDER WORDS— BELOV ' D WELL DONE ' — Author unknown. s , t Behind progress move the wheels of invest- ment. Do not both farmer and financier gain their objectives by investing? Have not the great scientists of the world invested their lives for their cause? Was not this nation born through the investment of human life? Was it not by the investment of His life as an eternal sacrifice that Jesus Christ became the Saviour of men? Throughout the centuries that have followed gladly have men offered on the altar of consecra- tion their all May these pages unveil before the reader the values of— INVESTED— A LIFE for God. The value of a life of unremitt ng service to others cannot be computed in gold. If God the dominating motivi then that man has IN VESTED his LIFE in the world ' s greatest Cause Just such a man is our beloved President, his aim is — for others . And it is with deep grati tude for his kind and patient ministry that we dedicate The Alabaster Box of 1938 to Mr Needham - -THE ANNUAL STAFF 4L eUed I ' ' ' MR. H. K.

This priceless treasure from its shelf, my friend, A boon to thee may be — The story of the changeless loving Christ It brings that all may see The Christ, who fed the hungry multitude, Broke lavishly for thee Of His own Alabaster Box of love, That ransomed thou might be. Hast thou an Alabaster Box, my friend, In secret hid away, To break upon some empty, tinseled cause, Where men ' s applause holds sway ? Bring forth thy precious treasure from its shelf And break it here today Upon the sacred, nail-pierced, bleeding feet, His love will thee repay. And in thine heart a richer plan wilt be, If at His feet laid low Thine Alabaster Box, ' twill others bless In thine own overflow. -ERNESTINE DAY fivueited - C U C ri£ School s it vt J ' Jt r 11 m-p Hr : d ' «£ s «B !

Are you following the lines of least resistance? Or are the enduring rewards of gold, silver, precious stones — rewards, the product of a life unselfishly spent for God and others — to be your quest? The destiny and efficiency of our lives rest with us It is our privilege — your privilege and responsibility to choose your own destiny, to invest your time, talents and energy in avenues that shall open the way for our God to place H:s hidden resources at your command No ' not an ash-heap, but a life invested for God, a life of adventure, thrills, and achievements — cooperating with the great Creator of the universe. Take the step now — invest your life for God today 1 What a wonderful privilege that we are called to let God INVEST our lives, and not just called to SPEND them for Him 1 God ' s methods of investing what is put in His hands is the reason for this privilege, for He alone knows what the results will be. May the class of ' 38 know the joy of letting God have, keep and use their investment. MRS. H.K. NEEDHAM P MR. H. K. NEEDHAM MR FRANK M.

Si I Iff f THE JUNIOR CLASS A desire which was created in our first year to know Him better, that we might more successfully make Him known, has been satisfied in a measure during our second year. We have contacted God in an intimate, personal way through prayer in the etness of our rooms. As a group we often sensed His presence with us as we voiced our praise and lifted our petitions to Him. Through study of His Word, our hearts have been illumined and we have revelled in the riches of His matchless love and infinite grace. Our very real acquaintance with Jesus has not been a disappointing one! Our vision for service is steadily increasing, and, as we make preparation, we realize there yet lies ahead much land to be possessed. As a class we press forward m Christ singing as we go: 0, deeper yet we pray, And higher every day, And wiser, blessed Lord, In Thy precious holy Word. REBECCA TINGLE Class of 1939 r l i , 1 : , THE FRESHMAN CLASS Come! .... Tarry! .... Go! In these three great commands of our Savior, the aim and purpose of the Fresh- men class is found. Come to study His Word! Tarry for power to serve, and go to tell of His great love. This most reasonable and yet greatest challenge of all ages has been heard and accepted by many. Such names as Martin Luther, William Carey, and Dwight L. Moody stand out among those who have taken up the cross for Christ and gone forth to arouse a sleeping world to its privilege. The Freshman class of 1938 have answered the call, they have come, they are tarrying and in due time an army of recruits will go forth to carry the gospel message come, tarry, go FAITH EYER, Class of ' 40 dk-i ' t LA Of) } tin I Staff EVA R SARVOLD Editor-in ALBERT KNUDSON Associate Editor WHEELER ANDERSON Business Marc MAE TAYLOR Art Editor ' 1 ,i V y, , DOROTHY M.

After much deliberation and prayer, this annual was published with three definite objectives in view: to present a cross-section of Bible School life, to tell the public about the advantages of the Southern California Bible School, and to carry the gospel message to people who would not ordinarily at- tend church or read religious literature God has placed His signal blessing on our efforts to meet these objectives under His guidance Especially gratifying has been the way God has used it as a soul saving medium. In its travels over the world, as it has come in contact with students, pastors, Christian workers, and missionaries, it has left a trail of salvation and blessing. This year 1200 copies have been printed — an increase of 40% over last year ' s circulation. In order that the annual continue to be the financial success it has been in the past, and to fully pav for itself it has been necessary to carry out a comprehensive sales cam- paign. Don Lehmann was chosen as sales manaqer, being assisted by Lois Depp, Mae Belchar, Marilyn Meyers, and Mrs. Florence Mason. Walter Thompson and Don Price were appointed to take charge of a well organized correspondence effort contacting alumni and for- mer students. These students armed with pencils, charts, smiles, encouragement, and backed with much prayer, have conducted a most successful sales campaign This committee met with a whole- hearted response on the part of the student body As we students have given of ourselves in the publication of this annual may the 1938 Alabaster Box be a means of ointment poured out upon all those into whose hands it may pass. k U 1 1 „, , ,, :v Ljrao uates at ooork l ist Of Oflu n? n i CLASS OF 1922 CLASS OF 1927 Atkinson, Helen Butz, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Fostekew, S R Kolenda, J.

This is a day of specialties, and youth, if il must specialize along some given line The young man knows, that if he reaches the top he must climb the ladder round on round giving himse The appearance of great men and women has caused hero-worship, a elf; for the r plishi the botton have avail ' f evi ' unity Tin, for fame surges throug ber of his being as he dreams, meditates, plans, and hopes for achieve and success, knowing that the world pays homage to thi eds.

Highways are crowded with young people on the mad quest for happiness. What good times they seem to be having, — the merry crowd with its laughter and song — going, always going! Can life continue thus forever? In the gay round of pleasure one forgets to think of tomorrow, but one must know that his three-score years and ten will pass swiftly by, and after that — what? But among this multitude of young folk there are those who are seeking something more stable and lasting than that most capricious of all will-o ' -the-wisps — PLEASURE. They have stopped to face life ' s issues and the great future beyond, and have come to a realization that man was created for something far greater than the search for self-gratification. A longing arose in their hearts that none of the pleasures of the world could satisfy. The great universe above and round about them spoke to them of God. They turned to Him — they heard His voice saying, Look unto me and be ye saved all ye ends of the earth, for I am God and there is ncne else. In God they have found the answer to their cry SAVED 1 Saved to reign with Him some- day. Saved for a glorious and righteous eternal kingdom. No pain — no sorrow — no death 1 The pleasures of the world grew dim and faded away. All things became different; they had launched out on a new life — a life renewed and transformed by the creative power of the Almighty God. Before, they would have coveted positions of honor, and grasped at oppor- tunities to serve presidents or kings. They now covet that which far surpasses all of these — the service of Jesus Christ, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. This service is inspired by gratitude to God for the gift of His beloved Son, Jesus Christ, that through faith in Him they might have forgiveness of sins and everlasting life It is inspired by the joy of present blessings — righteousness and peace in the soul; also by the joy of future reward, glorified together with the Lord and an eternal home with Him some day. But above all this service is inspired by a consuming love of God, for He does not com- mand men to serve Him, He gently woos their affections until they learn to love Him with all their heart, with all their soul, and with all their mind. I hear you ask a question; How may I find that tranquillity and contentment of which you speak? There is only one answer: By accepting Jesus Christ as your personal saviour! He came into the world to save sinners, He suffered Himself to be crucified that by the shedding of His blood He might cleanse from their sins all who come to Him What must we do to be saved? BELIEVE— COME— REPENT— ACCEPT! And Jesus will give living water that shall spring forth into everlasting life. He said ' Whosoever drinketh of the wate r that I shall give shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life TINA ARENDS, First Year Class I Hk iL. s SWEET PEACE Dear 1 hove very little id( exactly what to tell you about Bil hot I i ior me and You remember when w K)l togethc tably drawn toward B b to be a di I haci ever known bef ised to do i t come into such an aln ange, ther acquaintance studies and i Lord Jesus Christ, but tl like deep, calm, beautiful pools sequestered along the bam mountain streon xe and co !

She is not at all the timid, retiring girl such as were her sisters of yesterday. She is awake to her capabilities and possibilities, to what life is and how she can live it; and truly there is something about her courage, her alertness to life, and her open frankness that we admire. Looking at her, with her eagerness for thrills and her zest for good times, one is inclined to believe that the last thing in which she would take an interest and find satisfaction would be Christianity. On the contrary, it is the only thing in life that does completely answer the seemingly insatiable longings cf the heart of the young woman of today. Because of a mad rush to keep up with the pace of the times and to take advantage of every opportunity that seems to offer pleasure, the girl who is popular does net have time to think very deeply on the serious things of life. She may for the time feel that she hos found the ultimate in this whirl of gaiety and laughter. To such a one I say, Stop in the rush of life for just one moment and think . . . think deeply. How lasting is your apparent success? Are ycu altogether happy or are you deceiving yourself a bit? What is your aim in -ore ycu satisfied with the future that is ahead of you? Is not everything that contributes to your joy, to your getting a real thrill out of life, completely dependent upon circumstances? How much of a blew would blast it all and leave ycu as a ship without a rudder on an un- charted sea? Come with me and let us look at the young woman who has made Christ Lord in her life We find her, too, awake to all her possibilities and the craving in her soul to think for herself, find her place in the world, and achieve success and happiness. But there is a difference. Those things that fascinate the average modern girl have no charm for her. She has abandoned the less for the greater ... the passing for the permanent. As we watch her, we must agree that she possesses something genuine. Her constant, buoyant, happy way speaks of a joy that comes from within and that does not vary with changing conditions or circumstances. In the social world she moves as one in whom the love of God is manifest and her presence means a blessing. Even in the business world this young woman holds a distinctive place, for her employers see in her one who is an asset to the firm. Yes, the ever-changing and the never-certain unrealities have given place, in the life cf the Christian young woman, to the never-changing ever-certain realities — abiding joy and peace.

These people had caught a vision of the all-sufficient O and out of the fullness of their hearts, they spoke about Him, sang about Him They were not preachers, but realized that, while they might have a profession or trade, their real work was talking about and preaching the gospel And the Church moved forward ' The Roman world was stirred to its foundation ' Every convert tc the new faith joined the ranks of those who enthusiastically proclaimed the good news — on the streets, in the shops, in the homes. Christian young men and women — today God is calling YOU There is work to be done The Master is still saying, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the laborers are few Will you whole-heartedly join with Him in His war against sin? He needs not only missionaries pastors, evangelists, but He also needs men and women who will faithfully and ably fill the many other positions — without whom the Church is crippled Today people are more difficult to reach with the gospel than ever before. Everywhere the doctrine of skepticism is preached — in schools and colleges, over the radio, in books and magazines Men and women, yes, and beys and girls have been taught to doubt the Scriptures The foundation of their faith is shaken Their anchor is gone and they have been set adrift Christians, in order -to meet this condition, need not only a vital experience of the saving grace of Christ but, also, intelligent understanding of the Bible Unskilled Christian workers have very little influence today We are living in a day of specialties, the world demonds skilled workers m every line Must Christ accept less ' There is a commonly accepted belief that only those who have been called by the Lord to a definite ministry have need of systematic Bible training This has done much harm. Because of the ineffective way in which many of the so-called minor positions in the Church have been filled, the progress of God ' s Church has been greatly hmdered. Merchants, cobblers, doctors, truckdnvers, bricklayers, bakers, lawyers, housewives, sten- ographers, clerks — Bible School training will enable you to labor not only zealously but in- telligently, in the Lord ' s vineyard You will not only gain a more complete knowledge of the Word of God, but how best to present it Teamwork and consideration for others, two of the first principles of ordinary, everyday living in any walk of life, are also made very real. Then, too, a time spent in Bible school often affords God an opportunity to get people alone and quiet long enough for Him to speak to their hearts and call them into some definite line of service But even though you are not in full time ministry, may you be diligent in the calling that God has given to us all We may all be lights that shine, and voices that speak the wondrous truths of salvation Laborers together with God!

The Christian answer to the powerful consecration demanded with the iron fist of dictatorship from- the youth of less favored lands today. Political ideals have cap- tivated multitudes in the world to a point of a consecration to the death if need be Shall we be silent before these things? Has Calvary no effective answer? Are we ashamed of the gospel, and no longer consider it the power of God unto salvation? Consecration gives an emphatic answer; the consecration of Christian youth, consecration with victory ' s ringing cheer, consecration empowered by the Eternal Spirit with us in such mighty fulness since Pentecost Oh the joy of it; the fitness of it; the power of it 1 Halleluiah! Searching word also. WHY do I consecrate? What is my motive — for motive is important? Consecration, to accomplish its full purpose must be maintained; and must spring from a high, pure source Have I consecrated myself simply to get a blessing ? Good, but there can be a better motive. We must beware of Jacob-bargaining here. Have I consecrated myself be- cause everybody else all around me is doing it and I want to be with the crowd; or because consecration has won blessings for m y friends, and I do not want to be left behind in the holy race. Good also! There is a proper place for such sanctified emulation. Have I given my all to God through sheer gratitude? Nothing can be a more reasonable service Best of all; am I consecrating myself with the Master ' s Own Motive: for their sakes ? John 17:19. This is the purest motive of all Consecration for sheer love; love for others and a desire to serve them in the gospel. Consecration because the love of Christ is constraining To pour out, that others might drink, even if the pouring out is to be our own life, and living-death That they also . . . Such a motive will have a tremendous effect upon the other lives with which we come in contact Sobering word Genuine consecration is going to make such demands upon me. Not only in the heroic sphere, sometimes that is almost easy. The hardest things are in the realm of hard work, and steady plodding when nothing exciting is happening, and nothing spec- tacular brings us the praise of men. For consecration is NOT ENOUGH if it stands alone; it must be married to gift and ability. Skillful and willing workers were the order for the Old Testament. Mere consecration, entirely by itself, can accomplish little except the negative The service of the Lord requires men and women who have been gifted by His Spirit, and have exercised their talents to ensure a heavenly increase on That Day Hence — Bible School; and after that a continual application to attain ever increasing efficiency in the heavenly calling. Neglect not the gift that is in thee. Consecration is not an end in itself, though it may sometimes appear so. It is a means to an end The end is not yet ; not till the battle is over, and the work is done; and the Greater Service of eternity becomes our ravishing reward in His presence.

An ,,,,. ,, -V MISSIONARY PRAYER BANDS Where there is no vision, the people perish — Proverbs 29:18 n! This was the secret of the success of Paul and Peter (two of the greatest mission- ary warriors of the ages). Peter heard the call of the Gentiles: Paul heard the call of the Macedonians, Ccme over and help us Doubting nothing they went. To us students the secret of the power of this vision is the impulse in our hearts to pray for the millions who know not God, and for the physical, temporal, and spiritual needs of those who are pouring out their lives to tell those who are in darkness about Hun The school is blessed in having many students now in foreign and heme missionary service; their ministry, no doubt, has been the producl of the clear vision they have received through the prayer bands. Who is there that can turn a deaf ear and a cold heart to the needs of those who are without Christ and without hope ' May we ever have a vision and love for the SOULS of men as did Christ, the Son cf man who came to seek and to save that which was lost At the beginning of the year a group of eight Missionary Prayer Bands were organized; each consisting of students who ue r e interested in a definite country These groups meet separately once a week, for the express purpose of praying and becoming more acquainted with the country, the people, the missionaries, and the needs. Letters are written to missionaries and the answers give us fresh courage to pray, because God has heard and answered prayer for the salvation of souls, and healing of the bodies, and supplying needs As other conditions are presented we are moved with a stronger defmiteness and purpose in our prayer and in greater expectations for God ' s working Praise the Lord for the privilege of prayer. It not only brings rejoicing to those for whom we pray but it olso broadens our vision, deepens our love for God and for others, and fills us with greater joy in the Lord The God who bought us with His blood and keeps us by His grace is calling for completely surrendered lives — lives that are filled with His Spirit and the vision to save the perishing.

SARVOLD, Senior Class .0n eUed S0 ' Ji JHus ' ic MUSIC by the Lord and , jnd for the giving of praise and glory to His Creator. Theoretically speaking, music is the art cf employi they will assume the pleasing charoct Hon of music requires not only physical activity and application, but also mental op. to the impetus ond challenge of inspiration. It is rightly said that mu: iage of the soul. Before music can accomplish its highest and most noble purpose, there should be within the heart cf the producer or musician the desire and ability to gloi th his music. King David in the Bible to as the Psalmist, 01 .. - acred song ministry of music both instrumental and vocal, was motivated by the love of God in his heart In relation to religious activity, music provides a means of expression whereby God praised and the hearers edified. In Colo in believers are instructed to teach and admonish one another in psalms, and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in their hearts to the Lord. Furthermore, the use of instrumental music in religious worship is scripturally substan- tiated. The 150th Psalm exhorts to praise God with the sound of the trumpet, the psaltery, harp, timbrel, stringed instruments and organ. The theme of the psalm culminates in the words of the last verse: Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord. As a part of the Bible School curriculum, music is indispensable. The type of music studied is, of course, sacred. This injects into the student body an inspiration given by no other subject. The music department has for its objective the discovery of new talent and the de- veloping of individual capabilities. The student who aspires to music and uses his musical talent for the glory of God, has an added potentiality or power, the result of which will be unlimited in his future ministry. All things are song; it seems somehow The very central essence of us — song! t As if all the rest were but wrappings and hulls; See deep enough and you see musically The very heart of nature — being everywhere In music, if you can only reach it. — Thcmas Carlyle DUANE GRAF, First Year Class n w. 6ect . v SENTRY QUARTET _ : ; : : ■ !■■ !■■■■ SHARON SINGERS j led away fror i trail-: ] nard Two hours la :ntheca- beside an El C sheer dresses with coc touc othy Davies _ -ollowed by Earl Odell — Mc band, the preache- and :ha .

There is an average cf fifteen souls saved weekly in these services and though this particular type of ministry is hard, yet the returns more than justify the work and prayers for the needy ones Los Angeles is a mecca for trailers, and so the Trailer Camp is another place where ths students can work for the Lord. From 35 to 40 children gather in a little restaurant evi Sunday afternoon to see chalk talks presented by students who have talents along this The little ones gather from their homes on wheels, and seem very interested to hear ab: ut the 1 ord Prison Camp meetings are held by the boys of the school Ir is very gratify ng to see the genuine stir in the hearts of these who are already feeling the sting of s:n and crime in their lives Services are also held in the Juvenile Jail for the younger boys who have gone astray.

JUVENILE JAIL and boys, Jesus died for you — a face lights up as the youth recognizes the Name and his mind goes back a few years and he remembers the time a Sunday School teacher told him of a Christ who loved children Another face has rather a strange look. Jesus? — who is he ' The name is only familiar to him as used in profanity. Jesus, and He died for me ? Still another young face has a sneer; he has heard this sissy-stuff before. Yes, this is the picture before the students as they testify to a group of adolescent boys in Juvenile Jail How wonderful it is to see a face change from indifference or hostility into genuine interest and longing for a saving knowledge of the Saviour. SUNDAY AFTERNOON PRISON CAMP What an opportunity for the students to tell the Old, Old Story tc the men in the Los Angeles County Honor Camp far up in the mountains. Before entering the grounds the group of students stop for a personal talk with the Lord, asking Him to guide in the service and to make them a blessing to the men. There are a few minutes for personal work, before the gong sounds calling the men into the hall for songs, testimony and the message. Hearts are melted as God uses the speaker to bring the Gospel Story of Jesus ' love for them, and once again there is joy among the angels as a sinner finds his way to the foot of the cross. But parting time has come, once more the group returns to the school; once more they hove experienced the joy of presenting a satisfying Christ to darkened souls. ' I f ' l ff Stf ' Ji r PANCAKE SHOP Where cross the crowded ways of life in Lcs Angeles is the Pancake Shop; here, gather hundreds of men — jobless, friendless, and homeless Sin has robbed them of everything, and in desperation they wander to this haven where hungry bodies are fed. First, however, they must listen for an hour to inspiring hymns and a gospel message Each Sunday morning a group of students has charge cf a service at the Pancake Shop. It thrills their hearts to see sin-hardened men melt under the power of God, as they are told of the love of Christ Many have found Him as their Saviour, and have begun to walk in newness of life STREET MEETING Each Saturday night the streets of Highland Park ring with singing and praises to Christ, as a band of students gather to proclaim the Gospel Story to hearts in need An old hymn drifts out on the evening air and passers-by are stirred by familiar words or endearing memories In testimony the word is proclaimed that Jesus Saves! He Keeps, and He Satisfies God has richly blessed our street meetings and we feel that the Word, sown by the Holy Spirit, will find lodgement and bring forth fruit in some needy life THE CITY MISSION The students of S. C. B. S. have gained an invaluable knowledge in their assignment to the Los Angeles City Mission. This type of service calls for tact, love and much patience, and as the students minister there, these fruits of the Spirit are strongly manifested in their lives In testimony, song and the preaching of God ' s Word the message of the cross is presented to the men gathered there. Week after week these dejected men are given an opportunity to know Christ — the friend of sinners — the One who can reach down and save a derelict like Jerry McAuley, and very often a prodigal son returns to the Father ' s house through the ministry cf the students. s r l I r.l rv ' £ e Qnira-JHwros ' l I J) ■ .- :v Wrwebted £A WHY I CAME TO BIBLE SCHOOL It was my privilege for a number of years to teach in an English school for girls in Chile, South America This school belonged to the South American Missionary Society and had for its pupils girls from German families, English, Anglo-Chilean, and Peruvian, who as a whole were ignorant of spiritual things The Bible was a book that many of them had never seen. I realized the wonderful opportunity to wcrk for the Lord but at the same time felt my own need of a thorough training in the scriptures. I often found it difficult to answer the many questions put to me by the girls. During my furlough in 1933 I visited a friend in Los Angeles, a former worker in Temuco, Chile- Together we attended various sessions of the Southern California Bible School. I was greatly impressed with the spirituality of the school. On returning to Chile in 1934 I thought much about the Bible School, and that it was the very place for my training. I prayed about the matter and God began to work. In 1936 circumstances arose which necessitated my returning to England. ' I intended to return to Chile the following year, but instead of that the way was opened for me to come to Bible School So in August, 1937, I embarked on the Bremen for New York. All the way across the Lord helped me by sending me wonderful friends. On my arrival in Los Angeles, I found that my old friend had taken up her abode at the school Had I come the year before, I should hove been a stranger in a strange place God surely went before me causing everything to work out so wonderfully. I am very happy here. FLORENCE DAVIS, Class ' 40 Plymouth, England. Who hath saved us and called us with an holy calling . . . Before I felt that calling, my one impelling motive was a burning desire to achieve fame and fortune in the brilliant,, dazzling world of the theatre For years I struggled and fought, schemed and starved, studied and vowed that some day I would certainly attain my goal. Then one day I sat in an automobile with an old friend who had faithfully prayed for me. Saved, I thought, and innately I knew what saved meant At parting we bowed our heads in prayer He prayed for a few minutes and then asked me if I would say a prayer I had said no more than Our Father, when suddenly the glory of heaven burst over me and Christ had claimed another lost sheep. A few weeks later, God revealed His ' that he ild come to Bible School. I came on faith; I ' m still on faith He called me according to H oose and grace ' Jesus before the world began. JOHN C BROGER, Class ' 39 Miami. Florida. WHY I CAME TO BIBLE SCHOOL Few human beings since Adam have been satisfied to be idle. Nearly all seem ambitious to realize some ideal. Highest of these aims is a life which promises reward Mohammedans feverishly make disciples with the sword, Buddhists tranquilly contemplate upon the hope of Nirvana, Christians renounce self in living for Jesus This is the highest aim cf all In my life ' s crisis I had to decide whot to dc with my redeemed being, what ideals to realize Discovering there wos no eternal profit in life without God, I chose to sacrifice self in order to know God and be possessed by Him, My associations with the student life of S. C. B. S compel me to admire this serene place of preparation. Its peaceful surroundings, high quality of instruction, and practical emphasis make it ideal for thorough preparation for consecrated Christian service. LEWIS LITZMANN, Class of ' 39 Pasadena, California In my desire to have a deeper knowledge of God and His Word, I was definitely led to the Southern California Bible School. While on my way from Arizona part of the funds for my schooling was lost, but miraculously recovered after earnest prayer. I found that year in Bible School the most worthwhile one of my life. The presence of the Lord, the study of the Bible, fellowship with the students, and the beautiful surroundings were all so wonderful At the end of that year I was called back to my home in Phoenix, Arizona, and to my great disappointment was obliged to remain out of school one year. There seemed to be no possibility of my ever returning. The future looked very dark indeed. Satan tried to hinder me in so many ways. First I had the misfortune to step on . nail, and then I dropped a five-gallon water jug on my foot. I was thorough 1 , ' ated, but God completely healed my foot, praise His name! Then, He opened thi return to S. C. B. S. last fall, and here I am with renewed zeal and purpos. service the Lord. He has proved Himself so foithful in deepest trials, and I KNOW He answers prayer. • MERRY PI ESTER. Class of ' 39 Phoenix, a ve fect : , , WHY I CAME TO BIBLE SCHOOL At the age cf eleven ! was privileged to come to the United States with some missionaries; leaving my mother, brother and Sister in my home, Peru, South America. I saw great oppor- tunities here for a career, and had many ambitions. Although I had been saved before leaving South America, yet I began to drift away from God and only professed to be a Christian. I did not dream of going to Bible School. Why should I, when I could have a better time out in the world? Three years ago I again surrendered my life to Christ, and He gave me the desire to go to Bible School. Since then, I have been the happiest girl in the world. Trials? Temptations? Yes — all these things I have gone through. Christ met them so why should net l ? But the wonderful part is that He helped in every test. He has provided all my needs through nearly three years of school. Not only that, but He has been my mother, father, sister and brother — my most faithful friend. There is no end to what He has done for me, and will yet do if I remain in the center of His will. God ' s incomprehensible love overwhelms me. If I should shun this so sacred and holy calling after all He has done for me, I would say with Paul: Woe is me if I preach not the Gospel. My heart is in Peru. I long to be with my people and work for the Lord. If He can use such a one os I let me say, Here am I, Lord send me. REBECCA INGA, Class of 38 Peru, South America. H it r The Lord graciously saved me from a world of sin, in September, 1936. About eight months after this, He spoke to me about going to Bible School. However, my relatives and friends advised me to go on to college where I could learn a worthwhile occupation that would enable me to make something out cf my life. But I did not feel free to enter college, and God in a wonderful way led me to S. C. B. S. Now I can tell my friends that I am attending a school where I am preparing for the greatest work in life — soul winning for Christ. The training I am receiving here not only pays dividends for this short life, but also for the endless life beyond. I thank God for Bible School.

It is for Thee we do each task, To clean or scrub the floor; For lessons learned ' mcng homely things, We thank Thee o ' er and o ' er. — E. Day. In Bible School there are other things to be learned besides the fundamental truths of the Bible. If a student desires to be efficiently equipped, he must be able to apply himself not only to the spiritual, but also to the practical side of life. Nothing is quite so essential to Bible School students who are preparing themselves for the ministry of God as to know how to meet the little drudgeries which face them in the ordinary routine. To provide this training, each boarding student is given a task to perform. Some duties are naturally not so pleasant and sometimes they become rather irksome. But we are discovering it is not doing the things we particularly like that proves the best for us; these duties are the testings and moldings of true character — that character which is the pressing need of the world, and so lacking in this day Even the boys take delight in doing pots and pans, and the girls have lea shirts and waiters ' coats really well. All murmuring and rebellious thoughts are put aside when we realize that we are doing it as unto Him who led us to Bible School. Every two weeks the duties are changed, and we often find ourselves inwardly thanking God for some lesson learned in the performance of some tiresome household task. The 6:30 bell brings about ten students bounding up to the kitchen for early breakfast, for they must help prepare and serve food to the others, who will in turn be doing some household duty After breakfast is over, one will not need to strain his ears to know that duties are being done, for the blending of soprano, alto, tenor and bass voices rings out lustily to the accompaniment of clattering dishes. Dust cloths, mops, and brooms are very much in evidence also The flower girl hurries here and there with fresh bouquets for the offices, dining-room and chapel. Dormitory halls are swept and dusted, the lawn is cleared of oil leaves, ond S. C. B. S. presents a shining morning face to the beaming California sun. NINA WALKER, Second Year Class. y .vj Vv y,y ( CHAPEL Songs of praise echoing from the mam building of S. C B S. tell us it is 8:15 and another chapel service has begun Each morning at this time the students assemble for a half-hour devotional service before entering classes. Here as a group we meet God in order that we as individuals may have His presence throughout the routine of the day. Each morning brings something new in chapel Every student has his turn to lead the service, and each one brings a distinctive message from God ' s Word. The first of the week is usually opened for student testimonies, and as we listen to the leadings of God in individual lives, our faith is lifted to trust Him for greater things Other days, set aside for special speakers, bring us consecrated teachers, missionaries, and those of varied experiences who give us a broader conception of the ministry lying ahead of us. There are also times in chapel when a spirit of prayer prevails and bells are disregarded Only God can know the work thus accomplished in many hearts — work that shall last through eternity because of covenants mode with God during chapel time EVENING PRAYERS Have you ever sat around the table at the close of the meal while one of your family imparted sweet morsels from God ' s Holy Word ' If you have, you can picture the regular e sion of Evening Prayers at S C B . S After the last plate has been removed from the tables, at the sound of the bell each person turns his choir to a position facing the speaker. Selected portions of scripture, meditations, or hecrt expressions of praise to God — what- ever is given, is meat for our souls, and it strengthens and nourishes the inner man Having feasted on the riches of God ' s grace we turn our attention to the individual needs of the Bible School family that we may take them to the Father in united prayer This family altar at the close of a busy day again assures us of God ' s abiding presence in our hearts, and gives us refreshed minds to continue preparation of studies for the coming day DOROTHY ALDINGER, Senior Class.

I met Him and knew Him and blushed to see That H full of sorrow, were fixed on me; And I faltered and fell at His feet that day, While my castles melted and vanished away. Melted and vanished; in their place Naught else did I see but the Master ' s face, And I cried aloud, Oh make me meet To follow the steps of Thy wounded feet. tl jghts are now for the souls of men, I have lost my life to find it again; E ' er since one day in a quiet place I met the Master face to face. — Author unkncv. 1 f , t ¥ ecreatioYi ti BPJ ' .

Building md Lester Wasell and Captain Den Lehmann, ace high-scoring forwards from the 1937 squad, Coach Elliott used Roy Blakely and Johnny Tinsman, flashy first-year guard; their rangy class-mate, Bob Oslin, center. Inspired by the new blue and gold uniforms, this team concluded a very successful season. The combination was broken by Les Wasell leaving school but his position was exceptionally well taken care of by the veterans, Vasili Hurbace and Lewis Litzmann Our |unior varsity, composed of Howard May and Joe Opperman, forwards, Wheeler Ander- son and Don Price, guards, and Bud Michelson, alternating with Don Skaggs, at center, alsc had a very successful season. Some of this year ' s victories were over Inglewood, Wi I lowbrook, and Bethel Temple churches, also bos Angeles Pacific and Beulah colleges To quote Coach Elliott: Our 19: team is the finest, best-balanced squad in the history of the school ALL-TIME SKY PILOT TEAM This year at the request of students and alumni, the Alabaster Box is presenting the official selection of on all-time Sky Pi let basketball team The past years of basketball have produced many fine teams on the Bible School court, and from these have been chosen ten outstanding players These men have been chosen, not because of individual brilliance, but rather because cf their teamwork, speed, pass-work, ball-handling and accurate shooting It will be readily recognized that both teams have fast, deceptive, hard-shooting, ball players — with almost no margin in offensive or defensive power on either team. The following men compose the All-Time Sky Pilot Varsity and are a tribute to the athletic division of the Southern California Bible School.
