THE KING’S BUSINESS

picture gives us some idea of how He and we will appear in the resurrection glory. The highest splendor of earth seems dim when compared with this. As the three disciples gazed upon their glorified Lord, they beheld two others talking with Him, Moses, the great representative of the law; Elijah, the great representative of the W HEN' this is written the prospects for the opening of the Fall Term, Octo­ ber 4, are very encouraging. A large num­ ber of new students have been accepted, and some of these are already in residence—in addition to those seniors who remained in the eity during the summer. Three new members have been added to the Faculty, whose coming will make pos­ sible the widening and strengthening of the course of training. Rev. William Evans, Ph. D., D. D., comes as Associate Dean. For the past twelve years he has been the Director of the Bible Course in the Moody Bible Institute of Chi­ cago. During the last year he has spent some time traveling in the land of Palestine, and in lecturing at Bible Conferences in the United States and Canada. Charles Howard Marsh comes as instruc­ tor in music. He was associated for sev­ eral years with Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman as organist and accompanist. He studied or­ gan with Walter E. Hall, a fellow of the Royal College of Organists, London; re­ ceived his harmony and composition in­ struction from A. J. Goodrich, formerly of New York, now of Paris, and Dr. J. Chris­ topher Marks, organist and choir master of the Church of the Heavenly Rest. Mrs. Marsh is also an accomplished musician, having just completed a four years’ course of training in Europe. H. J. Baldwin comes as Superintendent of Men. For several years he has been on the editorial staff of the Sunday School Times. In addition to his duties in the over­ sight of the practical work of the men, he will take charge of some classes. Mrs. Baldwin has been writing the articles for

prophets. Moses had died (Deut. 34:5, 6), and so the theory of non-existence, or non- ,conscious existence, of the holy dead until the resurrection at the second coming of Christ goes to pieces. Moses has now the longing that was ungratified before his death, the longing to see the promised land and enter it, gratified. teachers, of Girls’ Classes in the Sunday School Times and she is also a skilled ac­ companist. Dr. R. A. Torrey, of course, continues as head of the faculty; John H. Hunter and T. C. Horton, as instructors in Bible; L. F. Peckham, as vocal instructor, and Mary B. Hill as Superintendent of Women. The weekly schedule of classes has been revised, so that with our new teachers and our splendid new class rooms we shall be able to carry on work that heretofore was impossible. The Institute regrets to lose the services of Miss Annie Maclaren, who for the past two years has been one of the instructors in music. She has accepted a call to be asso- •ciated with Dr. French E. Oliver and Charles Butler in evangelistic work. In addition to her duties as accompanist and soloist, she will have charge of the work among the women. Miss Maclaren will be greatly missed, not merely as a teacher, but also as a friend whom we have all learned to love and appreciate. We trust that God’s richest blessing will rest upon her in the evangelistic team. Another member of the Faculty has also felt the call to evangelism—R. Charles Lewis, who resigned his position as Super­ intendent of Men at the close of the Spring Term. God .has given Mr. Lewis peculiar gifts for reaching men. His large business experience and his experience in having charge of the shop meetings carried on by the Institute have shown him to be espe­ cially fitted for this. He, too, -will be missed. May God’s richest blessing rest upon him as be obeys what he feels sure is the Master’s call.
