Lois Briggs ’33, is on an indefinite medical furlough from the Sudan, and may be reached at 16202 Covello St., Van Nuys, Calif. 5 With Christ J. R. Klippenstein of Friend, Nebr., has announced the death of Helen Klip penstein ’22, on April 10th, 1949. There are no particulars. From the local newspaper of Yakima, Wash., Biola Family Circle learns of the death of Daisy Hendrix ’24. We quote from the article: “ The life of Miss Hendrix was an active one, and carried her to many corners of the world in the role of missionary work for the Presbyterian Church. The irony of her death is that in her chosen field she constantly contended with many dan gers. During the war she was engaged in teaching in the Philippines, and was later captured by Japanese forces and imprisoned in a concentration camp. To meet death in an automobile accident seems below the challenges this woman accepted in her life’s work.” Earl J. Large ’45, went in to see the
King June 11th, following a heart attack. Although handicapped by blindness, he made his witness count for Christ by his good humor, and cheerful accep tance of that which the Lord permitted. He gave a good testimony at breakfast and dinner clubs, and was successful in the field of evangelism. Though his life was a short one, his testimony will long be remembered. To these families who suffer bereave ment in the loss of loved ones Biola Family Circle offers sincere sympathy and the sure knowledge of a meeting beyond the clouds where the redeemed of the Lord shall know no sorrow, no sickness, no heartaches, for we shall “ ever be with the Lord.” gPp£ Biola Weddings JUNE 4: Kenneth Duane Lair—Madie Ellen Anderson; Hoover Street Baptist Church, Los Angeles.

“ They that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee” (Psa. 9:10). Glenn and Dorothy (McNabney) Law rence, both of the class of ’42, serving the Lord in the Belgian Congo, write of the grace of God sustaining new be lievers in a time of sorrow as follows: “ Last Wednesday night in a little moun tain graveyard I had the painful ex perience of burying one of our faithful evangelists who had died of pneumonia. Though it was a time of sorrow, it brought rejoicing to our hearts, as at the grave I did not see a single tear shed. It was not because of lack of love, but because of their simple faith in Him who is the resurrection and the life.” A letter from Dr. Ford and Carol Canfield (both of the class of ’18) indi cates the perils under which they serve the Lord in this tour of inspection of China in the interests of the China Inland Mission. There are dangers on the trails, in the mountains and in the cities. Often car trouble has detained them and made necessary a retracing of travel in dangerous territory for repair work. Thus they are surrounded by dangers, hut they are counting upon our prayers, and Matthew 16:18: “ I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Note a new exodus of the Pietsch family to the mission fields of the world upon completion of their training at Biola: Mary to Africa under the Sudan Interior Mission; William C., B.Th., to Chicago for a short term in the training school of the Evangelical Alliance Mis sion, and then to Pakistan; James and Helen (Anderson ’47) Pietsch and their year-old baby under the same board, to serve in North China. These are the sons and daughter of Paul J. Pietsch, Field Representative of the Bible In stitute of Los Angeles. Pray for this family called to serve the Lord in divers places according to His plan.
