T HE Board of Directors, after much delibera­ tion, has decided that the interests of the Bible Institute of Los Angeles can best be served by having a permanent President at the head of the administrative staff. After considering a number of outstanding fundamental Christian leaders, the Board takes great pleasure in announcing the appointment to this position of Dr. William P. White. Dr. White was educated at Monmouth College and at Xenia Theological Seminary in the days of the late Dr. Wm. G. Moorehead. The former institution conferred upon him the degree of Doctor of Divinity. After an experience of thirty years in three pastor­ ates, twenty years the pastor of the United Presbyterian Church of Albany, Oregon, he became associated with the Moody Bible Institute as its Regional Director on the Pacific Coast. As a Bible conference leader he has been enthusiastically re­ ceived by gatherings which he has served. For many years he was Pastor Advisor of the Oregon Christian

Endeavor state committee, and spoke from three to six times at each of their eight county conventions; he has also addressed the state convention of the California Christian Endeavor, and. his name ap­ peared on the program of two World’s Fundamental Conferences. Dr. White has taught the Bible in about three hundred cities and towns, sometimes as a Conference or Convention speaker, but generally carrying a con­ tinuous program of two addresses a day for ten days or two weeks. This has brought nation-wide fame and popularity among the Lord’s believing people. Dr. White is free from fads, and feeds the “sheep.” He has lately published a splendid book, “Thinking Through the Scriptures,” and is the author of a num­ ber of practical leaflets on Bible study. We extend him a cordial welcome to the staff of the Bible Institute, and bespeak for him the earnest prayers of God’s people.
