soon we are in a house greeting the occu pants with ‘Peace be upon yo u . . . ’ ‘No ills, all's well?*. . . . ‘Praise the Lord.’ W e shake hands all around. This is the mod ern touch; the old ways and the new inter mingle to make up the life of the city Arab today." E . Rexford ( ’27) and Mrs. Smith. (Grace Weller, ’2 6 ), Coachella, Calif.,, have had many testings and much cause for praise to God during the last months, both in their Mexican work in the Valley and also in their home. They ask prayer that the Lord’s will may be done in regard to their little son’s illness and in all future plans for their testimony for God in the field where they labor. They are praying for an additional worker in this district. George C. (’20, E .S .) and Mrs. V an Dusen ('20, E .S .), members of the Africa Inland Mission, have been serving at Aba, Congo Beige, Africa. They report about their work, the spreading of the Word o f God through Scripture portions, and the blessed time at their conference. A LETTER f rom R U S S I A . . The Lord bless you and reward you. Together with your letter we received . . . roubles. When the devil made it so that we could not sow our fields, it also happened, that many of us were dismissed from work, and we nearly fell into despair . . . We are so ashamed of ourselves now, for our loving Father sent us, through His children, means of living for which we thank Him. From our vegetable gardens we hope to be able to render help to our imprisoned brethren during the- winter. We are visiting wherever we are per mitted to get in. When we have no bread with which to feed our dear sufferers, we strengthen. them with God’s Word and Prayers . . Everyone who wants with us to feed the hungry Christians in Russia and through them to visit the imprisoned brethren, kindly send your cheer and comfort to . . . THE RUSSIAN MISSIONARY SOCIETY, Inc.

Activities of Former Students I AW REN C E W . ALLEN , ’28, 3040 Washington Blvd., Chicago, 111., was —i graduated from Princeton Theological Seminary in the spring of this year. For the present school year he has a fellowship in the Northern Baptist Theological Semi nary, Chicago, 111., where he will be teach ing one class and working toward his Doctor’s degree in Theology. The summer before his graduation from Princeton Semi nary, Mr. Allen spent four and a half months in Europe, Palestine, and Egypt, visiting seventeen countries. An audience with the Pope was one of the interesting experiences of his travels in Italy. James (’32) and Mrs. Hume (Ada Dugdale), who were married in August, are serving in the Baptist Church of Para dise, Calif., where Mr. Hume is pastor. A weekly class for new converts, chiefly young people, has been continued beyond the period originally planned, in order to meet the desire of the members for further Bible study. Morris and Mrs. Peterson (Christine E . Sandell, ’18) have served the First Swedish Baptist Church of Worcester, Mass., for over eight years. Mrs. Peterson writes: "W e have enjoyed it very much, and the Lord has blessed the work and us. My hus band has been pretty busy, slipping away now and then for a campaign with fine re sults in soul-winning. The last one held was in Pawtucket, R. I., over one hundred souls confessed Christ, saved through His blood.” Eva Doerksen, ’21, of the Sudan Interior Mission, now can be addressed at Kwoi, via Kafanchan, N. Nigeria, W . Africa. From her recent place of service she wrote: "All the permanent workers for here [Kagoro] are back from furlough now; so I must go to help out somewhere else. That seems to be my work lately—-‘filling in.' It’s hard to leave these Kagoros, some of whom have entered deep into my heart, but I want to go willingly and cheerfully wherever my Master calls.” W ilda A. Miller ’32, China Inland Mis sion, Wuwei, Kansu, China, writes: “I am always so glad to get Biola news, and I am praying that though the waters may be high, H e will keep you above them. I can never praise God enough for my time there, and I am rejoicing that many others are re ceiving similar blessings.” Ethel L. Brookes, ’28, E .S., and Mabel W . Jones, '28, E .S., Gafsa, Tunisia, N. Africa, write: “The Lord does lead us daily. As you probably know, in order to give out the gospel message, we must go to the houses seeking the women. There are a number of houses open to us, to which we go regularly, but we want to make new contacts. It is here we find our Lord working. W e leave our house, not knowing just which direction to take, but
