On this particular evening the Bible lesson had been from the Book of Hebrews, and the warning of the first verse of chapter 2 had been sounded, using the language of the American R. V .: “We ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard lest at any time we should d rift away from th em " . - The Holy Spirit knew the heart condition of the girl, whose eager attention expressed to the teacher only a deep interest in the lesson; and He used just that particular bit of translation to do His work in a drifting life. The words fell upon her ears and into her heart as a per sonal warning, and in a flash the extent of her “drift” was revealed to her. After the lesson, as she sought out the teacher, came her confession of the course she had been following for the past months, and her promise was given that before she slept that night she would return to her place of “obedience to her Lord’s will.” At the next meeting of the class there was a glad testimony given by this young woman to the joy of a life again anchored in Jesus, and in the brief interview between teacher and pupil after the lesson, the girl’s hand drew from her pocket a jeweled sorority pin as she said: “This caused the drift and is being returned with my withdrawal from the society.

The lack of definite Bible study and iso lation gave the adversary an advantage which ultimately pro duced a backslidden state of soul. For a time the bitterness was quite trying to those who would have befriended him; he even repulsed the advances of our worker and we could do no more than leave him alone, and pray. Recently Joe came to us again. He was peddling small wares, dressed in a uniform. He had come back into fellowship again with the Lord. Pride had been conquered and with a heart longing for the companionship of God’s people, he is now a daily frequenter of Biola Hall. O NE of the most earnèst, enthusiastic and, .we had thought, genuinely devoted Christians in one of the weekly classes of one of our Bible Women, came to the leader one night to lay bare a distressed and troubled soul. At a certain school where this young woman attended daily sessions in preparation for her chosen vocation, the “music and dance were on” at the noon hour.
