H E .R EV JO H N C. PAGE, D.D., who for the past fifteen years has been identified with the ( I Moody Bible Institute of Chicago, has been called to a place on the Faculty of the Bible 'J Institute of Los Angeles. . \ __ y Dr. Page was ordained to the Gospel ministry in 1901 and for fourteen years was actively engaged in the work of the pastorate. His first parish was in the mining camps of Colorado where he labored as missionary pastor in charge of several stations. Later he served in suburban and city churches, his last charge, in Denver, Colorado, covering a period of eight years. During these years he was frequently heard as a teacher in Bible Conferences. In 1914 Dr. Page was called to the teaching staff of the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago and for five years served as Bible teacher with the Extension Department of the Institute’s work. During these years he took part in Bible Conferences in many large centers of the East and taught Union Bible classes at points established by the Institute. The quality and success of this work is attested by many letters of commendation sent to the Moody Bible Institute in appreciation of Dr. Page’s work. When the material used by Dr. Page in his Bible classes was printed and published in book form, Dr. Gray, the President of the Moody Bible Institute, wrote the following words: “When our Lord ascended on high, He gave gifts unto men and He gave some teachers, and Mr. Page is one of them. “His long experience in teaching the Bible shows itself in this brochure on Paul’s Epistle to the Romans, which is terse and clear and true.” In September, 1919, Dr. Page was chosen to succeed the late Dr. Robert Russell as Instructor in Bible Doctrine and Homiletics, which position he occupied for eight years. His work in the Bible Insti tute will begin in September. Meanwhile Dr. Page will be engaged in Bible Conference work on the Western coast.
