1926 as an international organiza tion with chapters in Palestine, England and Puerto Rico. While the Fishermen’s Club was strictly for young men, the Lyceum Club was strictly for young women, started by Mrs. Horton for the young ladies employed at the Fifth Street Department Store. The first meeting was held in the rug depart ment of the store, but soon so many of the girls and their friends were coming that the store executives prepared a special room just off the rug department and equipped it with kitchen, dining and classroom facilities. For the convenience of the club, the store owners con structed an entry into the club room from the old Evening Express build ing, which was next door to the store, so that the club members would be able to enter the premises after closing hours of the store. By the end of its third academic year, the school already had out grown its Main St. facilities. Its success as a training school seemed assured; its future looked bright but many obstacles lay in its path. In July 1911, Stewart wrote to his brother Milton back in Titus ville, “The work of the Bible Insti- IMte has been on my mind very much of late by reason of having outgrown its quarters, and our need for a new home for the work.” Encouraging reports of the work had been coming in to Stewart. At that time the Institute was already carrying on an extensive teaching program through cottage and sub urban Bible classes. It was esti mated that about 3,000 persons were receiving weekly Bible in struction, and that from these class es quite a number of candidates for the ministry and foreign mission fields had been produced. Already four students had been examined and approved by the African In land Mission and some 15 addition al students had applied to go to Africa. To meet the needs of the expand ing school, Stewart, on July 28, 1911, purchased two lots, 80 x 116 feet at thef; comer of Los Angeles and Eighth Streets for $78,000. He wrote his brother about the loca- | tion: “It will always be near the center of the city, from which all car lines radiate, and it will only

Significantly Paul, who car ried the gospel to the Gentiles, always followed the injunction of Rom. 1:16 “To the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” At Salamis he and Barnabas “preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews.” (Acts 13:5) At Antioch Paul “went into the synagogue on the sabbath day.” (Acts 13:14) In Iconium they “went both together into the synagogue . . . and so spake that a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks believed.” (Acts 14:1) You will enjoy rich fellowship when you help us carry the gos pel to the Jews as Paul did. Even in Rome “Paul called the chief of the Jews together” (Acts 28:17) and gave them the mes sage first. Bringing the gospel to the Jews brings blessing to the Gen tiles. Never in our mission have we had a baptism service where there was not at least one Gen tile baptized together with the Jews. Let this God-given blessing become yours by joining us with your prayers for the salvation of the Jewish brethren of our Lord. Write for free literature today.
