Se n ior Glas s Through all the ages there have been those who lived to conquer. Great political leaders have arisen, overpowering resentful forces, overcoming strife, achieving success, and conscious of the fact that they were conquering. Artists have spent their lives to perfect some masterpiece. :Reformers spend their lives to bring about better living conditions. Similarly the Senior Class has been striving for four years to conquer, and the end is in view! Problems and difficulties have been many; discouragements have been real and severe; but concentrated thought and fixed purpose have proved that we can conquer. Our success, to a large extent, has been due to the harmony of our class and its efficient leaders. The goal, our college graduation is to us nolY the outstanding event of our lives. Goal? Ah no, this is only the beginning. We have made the initial step living; now comes REALITY. All that our Alma Mater has been, we have now become in part. The faculty, the organizations, and our friends have all contributed their best. Can we fail? Bethany-Peniel has instilled into us its principles of honest and upright living; it has furnished us the golden oppor足 tunity of a religious education, training the body, the mind, and the soul. vVe are sent in this commencement of life with the richest materials that can be obtained. The courageous spirit that has so successfully led the Senior Class through its college career is sufficient to lead us on through life. in

Our noble President, our untiring faculty, and our godly pastor have encouraged anel cheered through the trials that beset us. To them we are indebted, in a great measure, for the noble and high ideals which we now possess. Truly, it has been a blessing to associate with President, faculty and pastor. Another to whom we are especially indebted is our most noble and faith足 ful Sponsor, Mrs. K. S. vVhite. She has piloted us through the junior and senior years and has greatly contributed to the success of our class. Patiently has she borne our troubles and joyfully has she witnessed our victories. The Class of '29-'30 is the largest college graduating class in the history ot Bethany-Peniel College. Six of our members began as freshmen, climb足 ing "college hill" tog揃ether. Strong indeed are the ties which bind us together and only with the deepest sadness will we break our ranks. Among our graduates are leaders in every department and activIty of school life. In basketball, the Junior-Senior team was champion; in tennis, the Senior team won first place. Seven of our members are called to the ministry, and others feel deeply the call to Christian work. As time goes on our call shall not sink into obscurity. The memory and influence of our Alma Mater will be a source of inspiration through life; our souls and minds may become animated with school spirit to freshen us. A tinge of sadness creeps upon us with the thought of leaving grounds and halls But duty sweeps us on undaunted to face new and more difficult problems, to attain higher heights, to meet new friends, to live stronger, deeper, and fuller lives. Ever the spirit stirs within us-to conquer! "He who does not advance, falls behind."

T h e B al l a d of t h e P i g The pig s tood i n his lonely sty, W hence all but him had fled. He knew that h e ere long must die ; H e knew there was "nuff said." The council said the hour had come Their hopes b egan to rise. The pig's poor h eart was full of gloom ; A tear was in his eyes. The butcher came with rifle small, With fearful stealthy tread, An a im-a shot-a squeal-a fall足 And then the pig lay dead. The carcass plump they scraped and dressed This b utcher and his clan; W ith patient skill they labored on To follow out the plan. A l l through the dark and murky night The cook with sleepless eye The pig did toast and roast and brown ; H e knew the feast was nigh. And then came the picnic day W ith frolic, joke, and fun, N ow at this l ong expected h our, The tasty pig i s done. Our feast is spread ; the pig i s carved. Fair youth, now, dark or pale Let's l augh and feast until we leave No scrap but bone and tail . He'll soon b e gone but not forgot From h i m this l esson take ; \V ould you in people's memories l ive, You must them happy m ake. -Ira E. B ray.

EUGENE C. De JERNETT

Rev. E . C. De] ernett, who met sudden death at a railroad crossing, in Greenville, Texas, was one of the outstanding leaders of the Holiness M ove­ m ent in the South. It is significant of his life and character that when d eath met h i m he was on his way to l ead an early morning prayermeeting' in the city. H e was one of the three men who incor­ porated the Texas Holi­ n ess Association, the first Holi ness organization in the South west, and which functioned as a denomina­ tion un til the coming of the Church of th e Nazarene. He has a penna­ nent p lace in the h istory of B ethany-Peniel, as the founder of old Peniel.

HERMAN F. S C H M ELZENBACH

Rev . H. F . Schmelzenbach, the founder of the Nazarene M issions in Africa, went to h i s reward after eighteen years of such glorious service that an official of the B ritish govern­ m ent declared h i m to be Africa's greatest missionary since Livingstone. Bethany­ Peniel claims h i m as her very own. Such education as he had, he received at old Peniel. It was there h e was sanctified ; there h e received his call ; and it was Peniel that sent him out and sup­ ported h i m in his early days. Peniel station, moth er of all our African stations, links us with this great man of God.

Jun iors Anothe:' y ear of our school l ife has come to a close; and when we say this it i s with the feeling that it has been the best year of our college career. One fact that goes to establish this truth i s that the majority of students who rank h igh scholastically are Juniors. The man and the woman who received the h ighest h onors were Juniors. Another cause for our success as a class i s that we h ave l earned to appreciate to a larger extent our possibili ties, not in a selfish way, but as related to service. The ideals of B. P. C. have become firmly attached to us, yes have become a part of us. Some of the most efficient and most u seful students in school are mem b ers of our class. One holds a prominent position in Student Coun cil ; three boys are in the col lege quartet ; one boy is a star athlete and also a member of the Champion basketbal l team-the Junior-Senior team. Nearly a l l o f o u r class b elong t o t h e Glee Clubs; a n d almost 'without exception all o f o u r c l a s s are enrolled in the Fine Arts Department. We are proud of our class and j us tly, for we have one of the best of the Faculty as our Spon足 sor-Mrs. Hester-Fisher Peck. Mrs. Peck has been our Sponsor fo:' three years and a better, m ore capable, and more interested can scarcely be found. "\lV e are glad for the p rivilege and h onor of having Mrs. Peck as our Sponsor. Those who attended the Junior-Senior banquet will not soon forget the effects of work that was done to make the banquet a suc足 cess. Truly, it was the best Juni or-Senior banquet that B. P . C. has had. The third milestone of progress in college has b een passed, but not wi thout hard work. The way has been rough and narrow in places . But our attitude has ever been one of determination to succeed in spite of obstacles, or we, like many of our former fellow class m en, might h avc fallen by the way. W e are glad of the privilege of b eing a part of the great work of educating young pcople in Christian l iving as well as in the Arts and Sciences. vV e are striving to make B. P. C. the best possible. VV e'll wave th e banner of B. P. C. O'er mountain, vale, or sea That every nation of every sod May know that we s erve God .

Sopbomore s The school year of 1 929-30 dawned upon the Sophomore Class to find it som ewhat diminished in number. R ealizing that we were depriver! of some ot the previous y ears' students we saw there was but one thing to do. What we l acked in quantity must be made up in quality. With this vision b efore us we h ave laid aside the frivolities and carelessness of y outh and have put our足 selves into our vV'ork to develop charac ter. And as we come down to the close of the year we feel that as a class, though we lacked in quantity, we have greatly improved in quality. I n fact, we have been so absorbed in our work that social life gave place in a large measure to industry. Thus our Sopho足 more class has s acrificed p leasure for toil to the end that we h ave each day better p repared ourselves to m eet the problems of life and to conquer the m . As col lege days fly p a s t we realize more fully t h e truth o f o u r last year's motto: "What we are to be, we are now becom ing. " We believe that because w e have consistently followed this motto, many members of our class are l eaders of the d ifferent organizations of our col lege. Here are th e facts : twelve m embers of our class belong to the Glee Club ; four belong to the Orch esb-a ; fourteen are members of the Dramatic Club ; and five serve as m embers of the Arrow Staff. The president of the D elta Rho Literary Society, the president of the Dramatic Club, the president of the l.Jpper Classmen League, the B usiness M anager of the Arrow are Sophomores of whom we are justly proud. N either has our class of '32 lacked in class spirit. W e assumed the m ajor role ( roll) in the color fight. Our boys, with other upper cJassmen, sent the freshmen roll ing, s liding, rattl ing, rebounding, s m iting, and fighting; a sight to delight in as they were forced h urrying, skurrying, burrowing, m oaning, and groaning back to their dens. The spirit of enthusiasm did not subside throughout the y ear. We kept our colors flying high in every battle. To the Sophomore Class goes the h onor of putting on the first chapel program of the year. We put on a l ittle "stunt" called "Pioneer D ay s on the Railroad," fol足 lowed by " Scenery." Two important social events were enjoyed during the school y ear. In the fall our sponsor , Professor Hall , and his wife delightfully entertained the entire cl ass in their home one rainy evening. And in the early spring we went one Saturday in a jolty truck to Lincoln Park for a steak fry. The entire class feel that we owe a debt of gratitude to Professor Hal l for the splendid way in which he has sponsored the class during the last two ,Years. With such a sponsor to guide us, it has b een easy to show a spirit of friendliness to other classes, and to maintain a p roper interest in school affairs. Vie feel that in M iss Scarborough we h av e a very capable class president. She has ably performed h er duties as president and has been UIltiring in her efforts to l ead the class to b etter things.

Old friendships have been renewed ; new friendships have been formed; these together with an intense l oyalty for our col l ege and its ideals, we trust shall never end. A. M. & L. U.

Fras bman The Freshman Class of B . P. C. Is fifty members strong. Rice and B arlow and Cherry Are the three who lead the throng. Professor Hurd is sponsor, And a good one h e does make. Gold and blue their colors are ; On them their lives they'd stake. They put them in p laces galore ; They brought them to every game. They brought a goat on the broad gym floor A n d sai d U. C. L. was his name. A poor li ttle shivering cur Was brought to the Freshman's view ; He hardly knew which way to turn; He was dressed in gold and blue. Into a tub a Freshie went, B ut di scovered h e could not swim ; H e struggl e d till his strength was spent足 It was too bad for him. B u t after all that Freshman Class Is a class that's l oyal and true. They'll make it through-every lad and lass足 B . P. C. they're boosting you. R. J. B .

De] ern ett, founder of Peniel, who met death when he was struck by a train, and Bro. H. F. Schmelz�nbach, a student of Peniel College, who spent many y ears as a missionary in Africa, doing a work such has not been done in Africa since David Livingston. H e died in his home in Africa. Others of our number who are deceased will be remembered also. An enj oyabl e time i s assured to all who are p resent. In the y ears that are to come we hope that the reading of this article will bring back to the minds of the readers many p leasant and happy m emories of this extraordi­ nary occaSIOn.

6xpression Department Under the leadership and direction of M iss Kate Reese this d epartment has come to be the largest i n the Fine Arts division. The following courses are offered : Public Speaking, Platform Art, Story Telling, Oral I nter足 pretation, and a training class for teachers of expression . The class for p reachers and Christian workers is a large class having two divisions, one for advanced students and one for beginners. B esides contests and numerous public programs this department has also produced several public presenta足 tions for exampl e : "Comic Sheet Wedding," " Confes足 sional," "Color B lind," "The Color Line," "\!\Th at M en Live By," "The Gift," and "Neighbors "-all outstanding plays. Our motto is-"A maximum of effect with a m 1l11m u m of effort." We believe all true expression is from " within-outward" and that "One must have something to say, say it, and stop . " These principles faithfully ad足 hered to have produced the outstan ding results seen 111 the work of this department. B . C.

OPPORTUNITY

Master of human destinies am I ; Fame, love and fortune on my footsteps 'wait, Cities and fields I walk ; I penetrate D eserts and seas remote, and passing by Hovels and mart and palace, soon or late I knock unbidden, once, at every gate! If feasting, rise ; if sleepi ng, wake before I turn away. It is the hour of fate, And those who follow me reach every state M ortals desire, and conquer every foe Save death . B ut those who doubt or hesitate Condemned to failure, p enury and woe, Seek me in vain and ceaslessly i mplore ; I answer not, and I return-no more. -Joh n J. Ingall s Fifty-seven

P i an o D uring the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries the enthusiasm for instrumental music created a de足 mand for adequate forms of its expression.

At first

the simple forms of dances were used for the l ighter compositions ; then composers adopted the exped足 ient of broadening the original dance form by add足 ing to it a subject and by discussing this subject under various conditions .

The problem o f making

all its parts balance n icely and sati sfy art conditions became the matter for experim ents. And what instrument was convenient for these experiments ?

The Pianoforte.

A few, like M ozart, Bach, and B eethoven have mastered the p i anoforte and are called great be足 cause they have written m usic that has awakened the depth s of feeling i n the heart ; because they h ave made music a "soul-expressing medium ; " because they have given to us the beautifu l . Through l iterature, t h e other soul -expressing medium, we become acquainted with the master m i nds.

If we desire to associate with the m aster

mUSICIans, we must study that which they have gIven us. M . O . N.

q oic:e De partme n t The voice departm ent is very popular in the student body as well as among outsiders.

Mrs. Peck, who is very efficient,

has done excellent work in the voice department.

She not

only spends her time 'with private students, who number about thirty-six, but she spends hours i n training gronps. In th i s departm ent there are, the young women's glee club ; young men's glee club ; the mixed chorus ; male q uartet, and the ladies' octet.

Each of these organizations is doing

spl endid 路work. The young wom en's and young men's glee clubs have preformed very efficiently in chapel and on various other oc颅 caSlOns.

The octet and the quartet have appeared numbers

of times singing in chapel, church, over radio and other places. The m ixed chorus, which consi sts of about forty women and m en , i s being trained for an Easter program; some very be:lutiful songs are being worked on. M i s s Evangelin e Lil lenas, who has a beautiful contralto voice, and Me D wight Yarbrough, our路 main bass singer, are to receive certificates in voice th i s y ear. W e are very proud of this department and we appreciate the work that has been done by it.

We feel sure that voice

teachers, song-leaders, and special singers are being trained in the voice department.

M any hearts are being touched

through good singing that are not touched through anything else.

Gy mn as i um

W ithout doubt the greatest im petus that has been given to athletics in B ethany-Peniel College in recent years has been the erection of the new Gym­ nasium . Costing more than six th ousand dollars, it is one of the largest in this section of the country ; it affords a regulation coll ege basketball court with ample room for spectators. B efore and during the time that the new con­ crete tennis court was under construction the new Gymnasium was used for the net game and made a very excell ent court. During large public gather­ ings such as assemblies and campmeetings, the building i s used in preference to the church audito­ rium. It will seat several thousand people. It has room for an exceedingly large choir, and for the rostrum an average speaker can be seen and heard excellently well all over the buil ding. "\iVith h igh ceiling and hardwood flooring it presents ideal qualifications for basketball, and once a week dur­ ing the winter months enthusiastic crowds gather to watch inter-class games. The Gymnasium i s one of the six new buildings erected during the last six years for B ethany-Peniel College ; its construction marks an era in her for­ ward progress. D. R . G . Sixty-fiv e


B as ab all A few interesting games of baseball were played this year, al­ though less enthusiasm was evident than in former years. The Sophomore club was perhaps most formidable as a complete group, but other teams had more ability as to individual players. Garrison as pitcher was the mainstay for the Sophomores, and without him they would probably not have won the sensational victories that they did. In the first game of the season the High School lost to the college Freshmen. Later the Freshmen were twice decisively defeated by the Sophomores. These games were won by such large scores that other class were disheartened and by common consent the Sophomores were awarded the championship. The teams were as follows : HIGH SCHOOL :-Bundy, Creech, Alger, Uerkvitz, L. Langford, Reed, Roane, M. Jones, E. Aller. FRESHMEN :-Pope, G. Jones, M. Howard, Hughes, Connally, Bohlke, Dibble, Reynolds, Hill, Gresham, Lockwood, Stinette, Stone. SOPHOMORES :-Harrison, Garrison, McQuay, Shannon, Cornwell, E. Howard, Stahly, T. White, Warkentin, Norton. An all-school team was selected by a committee which witnessed the games. This team and their positions are as follows : G. Jones, catcher ; Garrison, pitcher ; V. Langford, first base ; Har­ rison, second base ; Reed, third base ; Creech, short-stop; Pope, right­ field ; Bundy, left-field ; Cornwell, center-field. Difficulty faces anyone who selects such a team because so many have seemingly equal ability. Where such is the case, selections have been based also on temperament. Many men of evident ability cannot keep their temper : others perform poorly under excitement ; some will not play seriously, and still others will not do team work. Most of the men selected could play well in any position. J ones is selected because of previous experience u nder a trained coach, and his love of the game, both of which are always advantage­ ous. Garrison was the outstanding pitcher of the school and had no near rivals for the mound position. Langford, though not having played in official games this year, gets the first base position because of signal ability combined with coolheadedness and a good quality of temperament. Harrison is the outstanding candidate for the second bag position. Reed, though short, showed that he could hold the balls which were within reach and that he had ability to think fast. Creech played no steady position but he qualifies for the short-stop position by general ability and physical makeup. He is exceedingly active and ready on his feet. Pope, though he played chiefly on the mound and at first base, gets the right-field position chiefly because he can hold the ball and throw it accurately. The same reasons hold for Bundy. He is quick on his feet, able to hold the ball, a good judge of distance and an accurate thrower. Cornwell gets the center-field position because he has consistently shown more ability than his nearest competitors for the place, and because he possesses the kind of temperament which tends to inspire confidence in a team. Others should receive mention. Hughes, M. Jones, and Reynolds did good work behind the bat ; Con­ nally showed up well at first base; Dibble played third base in an effi­ cient manner, and Stahly at center-field, McQuay at left field, White at right-field did work that helped to bring their team out victors.

More enthusiastic support of tennis has been noticeabl e this year and in­ terest h as increased considerably over that of other years, due principally to th(; facilities afforded by the n evv gymnasium and to the constru ction of the fi rst of a series of new concrete courts. The first doubles games of the season ended in d efeat for the high school a t the hands of the freshmen. A series of victories for the high school came i l 1 the fi rst succeeding games, but the seniors after getting a late start went steadily through the season to gain and hold the l ead. The seniors were not spectacular, but they were consistent. The college freshmen girl s team easi ly won their first gam e from the high �ch ool girls, but l ost to them later in a hotly contested fray. They won their next game from the juniors by a very close margin. The teams and standings at the close of the fall tournament follows : Boys

Intra-mural l iterally m eans within the walls. I ntra-mural athl etics are those which are participated in only by the students of one school. Organizations or groups within the institution compete with each other and only with each other. Inter-collegiate athl etics are more common . They h ave to do with competition between d i fferent schools. Bethany-Peniel College does not endorse inter-collegiate games. Our students are permitted to take part in certain types of out-door sports on their own grounds and within their number. This simply m eans that our school believes in and encourages intra-mural but not inter-collegiate athl etics. A large number of students can participate in intra-mural sports. This is proven by the fact that both teams must must be secured from within the walls of one school. Such is not the case with inter-collegiate contests. In any given game only one team from each of the two competing schools can play. Further, it is not as necessary to concentrate on the development of a tew highly trained experts in intra-m ural as it is in inter-collegiate athletics . Thus the ath letic director is given more time for the promotion and supervision of the play of all of the students. Intra-mural sports are less l ikely to become all-absorbing. I n any educational institution learning must be above p lay and exercise, the m ental above the physicial. Oftentimes this is not the case when the games are intercollegiate. The stadium b ecomes the center of the school's activities and not the class room . Too much time and interest is given to the contests in proportion to that which is given to study. Woodrow Wilson when he was president of Princeton said that the tendency was for the extra-curricular ac­ tivities to assume more imp ortanc e in coll ege organization than teaching itself. He also said that the college side-shows had become of so m uch more importance than the main tents that it was hardly worth while any longer to teach. The chief of the extra-curricular activities or side-shows (as Wilson called th em) is inter-collegiate athletics W ith intra-mural athletics it is different. The competition with them is not so k een and far-reaching. Therefore, they are not so l ikely to assume such an unduly important place in coll ege l ife. Intra-mural contests are less l ikely to l ead to unethical practices. The recent Carnegie report as to inter-coll egiate gam es was not very complimen­ t ary. The participants in inter-collegiate athl etics are supposed to be ama­ teur p layers . The facts in the report j ust m entioned indicate that in many instances such has not been the case. The competition has become so intense until the various colleges have often over-stepped themselves and have really paid considerable sums in order to get men in their teams whom they thought would bring v ictory to their institution. There is l ittle to tempt those who engage in intra-mural sports to indulge in such unethical conduct. The p res­ sure of the demand to win n ever gets strong enough for that. Last but not l east the holiness school is committed to the belief that r e ligion is l ife's supreme value. This being the fact our schools can never be­ come regular participants in inter-collegiate athletics as they are now. They also often l ead to the break-down of ethica.l conduct, a necessary complement of all true religion. I thank God that B ethany-Peniel College stands only for intra-mural athletics ! Seventy

B as n atb aII Inter-class basketball has been very interesting this year in de­ velQping a fine quality Qf class spirit and in bringing many peQple in tQuch with athletics. Enthusiasm ran high during the greater part Qf NO' game was mQre thrilling than the first Freshman­ the seaSQn. SeniQr battle, which the SeniQrs WQn by a last-secQnd field gQal, climaxing a brilliant rally. In this game Captain LangfQrd, Qf the SeniQrs, set a recQrd Qf twenty-five PQints, which stQQd unbeaten thrQughQut the seaSQn.. Other exciting games were the SQphQmQre­ SeniQr and the secQnd Freshman-SeniQr games, bQth Qf which were victQries fQr the Qlder class. The upper class teams were well-matched, and predictiQns as to' their fQrtunes were Qften upset. Luck CQuid hardly be said to' be the basis Qf the success Qf the SeniQrs, althQugh the clQse SCQres might seem to' indicate that. Had all Qf the members Qf the IQwer class teams been able to' remain in schQQI, the SeniQrs might have had strQnger QPPQsitiQn; but it must be remembered that they defeated their strQngest QPPQnents befQre there were any vacancies. SelectiQns fQr the all-schQQI teams are based Qn the six fQllQwing PQints : Endurance, temperament, natural ability, team-mQrk, at­ titude, and recQrd. FIRST TEAM Points Scored PQsitiQn Player NO'.

LangfQrd and Dibble were the Qutstanding players Q f the schQQl. While their styles Qf playing were vastly different, they were bQth aggressive and alert. BQth had the team-wQrk instinct, which many gQQd players lack. A gQQd quality Qf temperament and a seriQus at­ titude characterized these men. PQpe had dash and speed Qn the Qffense, wQrked smQQthly with his team-mates and PQssessed endurance. He gQt a gQQd number Qf PQints while exhibiting a fine brand Qf guarding. KnQx gets the left fQrward PQsitiQn, being a steady, level-headed player and cQnsistent PQint gainer. His last-secQnd field gQal gave the SeniQrs their mQst impQrtant victQry Qver the Freshmen. J QhnsQn gets the center PQsitiQn. He was fast, hard to' guard, lQng-winded, and had a great IQve fQr the game. Bundy and CQnnally are given the fQrward berths Qn the secQnd team. Bundy finished the seaSQn brilliantly. CQnnally CQuid be cQunted Qn fQr PQints when they were needed. ReynQlds played bril­ liantly in the early games Qf the seaSQn; his uncanny accuracy was the subject Qf much CQmment. Rice and Creech take the guard PQsi­ tiQns. CQrnwell, Reed, GarrisQn, HQag, and Stahly shQwed real ability in different departments Qf the game ; CQrnwell in dribbling, Reed in the use Qf the pivQt, GarrisQn in IQng-shQQting, HQag in guarding, and Stahly in shQrt quick shQQting. The seaSQn clQsed with a series Qf games with the alumni, in which the schQQl bQYs held their Qwn with the Qlder players. D. R. G. Seventy-five


SUMMARY O F T R A C K

The 1 930 Track and Field Day will b e one long remem­ bered by the students of B. P. C. who witnessed it. From every standpoint it was a grand success. B eautiful ·weather favored the contest ; good sportsmanship and keen competi­ tion were evident throughout the day ; and large sales of candies and cold drinks m aterially supplemented the athl etic fund. The R anger j inx 0f two years standing was broken, and they won the meet by a score of 87Y; points to 66Y; points m ade by th e Com ets. At th e end of the first fifteen events the Comets were l eading, with the scores standing 6S to 62. During this time th ey h a d maintained a substantial l ead, but fail ed to gain enough poi nts in the last three events to retain it. Stah Iy, a R anger, was individual honor man with first in the discus throw, polevault. running broad j u mp ; with sec­ onds in stan ding broad j ump and running h igh j ump, and with third place in the j avelin throw and standing high jump, mak­ ing a total of twenty-three points. Stahly set two new marks over those of last y ear despite th e h indrance of a very sore finger. Aller's sprinting created a sensation. He won firsts in the hundred, fi fty, and two h undred twenty yard dashes. Dibble set new time i n mile race. Several new m arks were esta b lished over those of l ast year ; in fact, th is was done in about half of the events. "'''hile the shortness of the training season and the fact that only one contest is h e l d are prohibitive of outstanding records, there were some individuals with natura l ability who caused their oppon ents a great deal of ·worry. The participants i n next years' m eet will have no easy time i n attempting to set new school records. The 1 930 high point men were : Stahly, 23 ; Aller, 1 8 ; Garrett, 1 7Y; ; Dibble, 16.

6ha Dis trict /l s s amb ly The Seventeenth D istrict Assembly of the Western Oklahoma District, Church of the Nazarene, was held in Bethany from September 24 to 28, 1 929. General Superintendent James B. Chapman, who is an alumnus of this school, very abl y presided over the assembly, giving every m orning an interesting, helpful, and i n sp iring lecture on some phase of Christian leadership. Dr. Chapman also d i d some of the evangelistic 1 ,reaching in the evening services. In addition, we ,,,ere pleased to h ave Brother A. F. Bal smeier, D istrict Superintendent of the Kansas District, to preach to us on Thursday n i ght ; B rother A . L. Parrott, the l ocal pastor, on Sat­ m-day night ; and our own Di strict Superintendent R ev. J . Walter Hall, on Sunday n ight of the assembly. All of these services were blessed and owned of God, and many souls bowed at an altar of prayer. It was also delightful to have the Vaughn Radio Quartet present on Wednesday. They sang many times during the day and especially at th e educational rally, at which time President S. S. W hite and others spoke in the interest of the school. They had to l eave before evening to continue their tour of the school zone i n the interest of the college endownment campaign. D r . J . B . Chapman

Other important visitors of the Assembly were Rev. E . ] . Fleming, General Secretary of the Church of the Nazarene, Rev. Clive Wi lliams, and M i s s Mary Cove. B rother Fleming spoke on Thursday in the interest of the M i n isterial Reserve Pens i on Plan. B rother Clive Will iams of Nampa, Idaho, was here to represent our Nazarene San itarium at Nampa. This i s a training p lace for outgoing missionaries and a l so a resting place for those wbo h ave returned and who are i n need of p hysical care. Miss Cove came to represent the General Womens' Foreign M issionary Society. Special music of excel l ent spiritual type was furnished the Assembly by Mr. and Mrs. E. Simpson, J. H. Pearson, C. 'IN" . Barnes, the College Men's Glee Club, and a trio consisting of Mr. and Mrs. K . S. \N"h ite and Mrs. Otis Peck. On Friday B rother J . Wal ter Hal l , who i s a most sincere friend of Bethany-Peniel College and of all the students, was again re-elected D istrict Superin tendent. Mrs. Hall was called to the platform when B rother Hall gave a very fitting speech of acceptance, after which she gave a most excellent testimony. \N"e thank God for these humble, patient, godly people. T!l e Sunday m orning service was one long to be remem hered in the minds of those present. A t nine o'cl ock there was a love feast conducted by Bro­ ther C l ive vV i l l i a111 s, and at the cl even o'clock hour Dr. Chapman brought one of his masterful sermons on "TIle Gospel of the Grace of God." I n the after­ noon the ordin ation service was held at which one deaconness was consecrated and seven preachers ordai n e d , three of them being boys from our own college : B ernard Knox, W. Thurman vV �l ite, and O. J. Hoag. The Assembly closed with a gracious altar service after a sermon by B ro ther J. \tV al ter Hall. We give God all the glory. O. ]. H . Seventy-seven

Editorial Another school year is well nigh gone : to some it is only a beginning in their college career, to c;thers it is com­ mencement of life. For some of us four years of college have flitted magically away. As we sit at the Arrow desk in meditation a joyous feel­ ing creeps over us, thinking of the pngress that has been made by our dear school, and the progress which her be­ loved faculty and loyal con­ stituency has helped us to make. Then a tinge of sad­ ness steals upon us as we approach the time when we shall have to leave our many friends and the school and assume more and greater re­ sponsibilities than ever be­ fore.

poung UIome:n's Gospe:l 6e:am

Each Thursday evening the gospel teams meet for a half h our of prayer and testimony.

A s most p eople

know, there are two teams-one for the young men and one for the young ladi es-both having been organized for many years. Every p erson needs spiritual, intellectual and social encouragemen t ; the greatest of these, of course, is spirit­ ual.

The gospel teams of B ethany-Peniel College do

much to supply this spiritual need of the students. These organ izations offer an association with Christians who are forgetting for a·while the toils and cares of l ife and getting closer to the great, loving heart of God. They give the Christian students a chan ce to lead in public prayer, to testify, and to discuss spiritual prob­ lems, which opportunity is a great benefit to them ; i t will help them to become leaders of Christian work.

" Help m e in all I do To ever b e sincere and true ; An d know that all for thee I do Must needs be done for others. " Let self be crucified and slain, And buried deep, and all in vain M ay efforts b e to rise again, Unless to live for others . "And when my work on earth is done, And my new work in h eaven begun, M ay I forget the crown I won While thinking still of others. " Others, Lord, yes others, Let this my motto be, Help m e to live for others That I may live for thee."
