A Radio Section having been added to The King’s Business, we feel that many of our readers will be inter ested to know something of the history of the Bible Insti tute station. It was in the fall of 1921 that Mr. M. E. Carrier, Chief Engineer of the Bible Institute, first thought of the pos sibility of the use of Radio as a means of spreading the Gospel. So new was the thought, that when it was men tioned to Mr. T. C. Horton, then Superintendent and Dr. R. A. Torrey, Dean of the Institute, they very thoughtfully hesitated and even questioned the advisabil ity of such a project. However after some months of waiting, it was decided to build a ten watts station. On March 10th, 1922, this ten watts station was put into operation, with very gratifying results, many souls having been saved through its use. After two years of this small station it was decided to build a more powerful station, which, like the first one, was designed and built by the Engineering Department of the Institute. The new station was increased to 750 watts power and for more than a year was the most powerful broadcasting station west of the Mississippi river. The original call letters assigned to our station by the Department of Commerce, was K.J.S., but were changed in September, 1925, to K.T.B.I., the last three letters being the first letters of the words, The Bible' Institute. This station was the first strictly religious broadcasting station ta be licensed in the United States, if not in the world. The personnel of the station is partly represented by the pictures on Page 41, but the complete personnel is as follows: M. E. Carrier,' Manager and Announcer; Herbert G. Tovey, Director of Programs; J. R. Lytle, Radio Oper ator; Ollie B. Carrier, Radio Engineer; Harry P. Herd- man, Announcer; Gordon E. Hooker, Accompanist; Mrs. Gordon E. Hooker, Aunt Martha. The great unseen realm above and about us is freighted with all sorts and conditions of messages in these days of radio. It would seem that almost everyone is at either the microphone or the loud speaker. The world lends a listening ear, and must perforce have something to hear.
Not the least interesting of regular programs which speed on ethereal wings into the azure heights are those broad casted by Station K.T.B.I., the Bible Institute of Los Angeles, Calif. Letters of appreciation come from near and far, speaking of hours brightened, of hope renewed, and of faith strengthened, through these airy messengers. Pray for Radio K.T.B.I., its operating staff, the faithful contributors to its helpful ministry, and for the numbers who participate in these delightful programs—at the receiving end! How to Know God’s Will F. B. Meyer once was asked how one might surely recognize the will of God. He replied: “This question was answered for me once as in a very dark night we were entering Holyhead harbor. I asked the captain how he went about finding the narrow entrance to the harbor at night. He said to me, “See yonder three lights ? When these are in line, I am in the right channel.” So it is with the will of God. When the Word of God, the impulse of the Holy Spirit in my heart, and the outward circum stances are in harmony, then I am convinced that I am act ing in accordance with the will of God.”— Selected. “Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” Psa. 119:105. .Is? A Holy Religion To a young infidel who was scoffing at Christianity because of the misconduct of its professors, the late Dr. Mason said: “Did you ever know an uproar to be made because an infidel went astray from the paths of morality ?” The infidel admitted that he had not. “Then, don’t you see,” said Dr. Mason, “that, by expecting the professors of Christianity to be holy, you admit it to be a holy religion, and thus pay it the highest compliment in your power?” The young man was silent.
