trolled by the Brethren denomination of which Dr. Monroe is a member. In addi tion to serving in the pastorate, Dr. Mon roe has spent some time in graduate study in the American School of Oriental Re search in Jerusalem and has traveled ex tensively in the United States and abroad. In the coming to Los Angeles of Dr. Monroe with Mrs. Monroe (Hildred W il liams, ’23) and their family, the way has been opened for the lightening of the bur dens so long and faithfully carried by Alan S. Pearce ( ’19), assistant pastor of the First Brethren Church of Long Beach, Calif., who has served the Institute in an executive capacity through its Correspond ence School as a labor of love to the Lord. As Dr. Monroe assumes the duties con nected with the secretaryship of the Corre spondence School, he will have the coopera tion, counsel, and brotherly interest of Mr. Pearce, to whom the Institute must always be grateful. Dr. Monroe will not only di rect the work of the Correspondence School! but will also teach in the Institute; at the present time he is conducting classes in Doctrine in the Evening School.
Marked by impressive inauguration serv ices, October 4 to 11, the new edifice of the San Gabriel Union Church, of which Roy L.
