th e men and women who under God made th is place and work possible. The names of Lyman Stewart, consecrated layman w ith a h ea rt of love, and of T. C. Horton, who put his very life into w hat has been bu ilt up hëre, can never be divorced from this holy 'en terp rise. To them , Dr. Torrey, and to all who have been associated w ith them in making this opportunity possible we acknowledge our obligations and th ank God for th e ir g reat devotion, and self-sacrificing services. In the acknow ledgment of th a t obligation we wislx to solemnly emphasize, th a t it is our sincere desire and purpose to carry out the original purpose and intention of the In stitu te to its fullest possible realization. Not a line or a word of our Statem ent of Doctrine has been changed. So far as I know, the Board of D irectors and those they have called to be associated w ith them have never so much as suggested such a change. To th is S tatem ent of Doctrine the Associate Dean an-d myself have th is afternoon sincerely and w ithout reservation or equivocation solemnly sub­ scribed. Here we stand. We have no wish to do otherwise. Third,- It is a responsibility to th e church of Christ. This responsibility is marked by the Christian duty of a hearty co-operation which is expressed in a genuine service. We are here as the servan t of the church and it is our sincere desire to so serve th a t every evangelical church and m in­ ister in California will find it easier to do th eir work because we are here. We w ant to be recognized as a p a rt of thé church of Jesus Christ and it is our fixed purpose to meet the responsibilities of such a recognition. As a member of th e body of Christ we cannot be indifferent to th e highest welfare of every other member. “The hand cannot say to th e foot, I have no need of thee.” F o u rth , It is a responsibility to the future. We feel this is one of the most challenging elements in th is whole m at­ ter. I t is our conviction th a t every boy and g irl coming into th e world ought to have a fair chance, and th a t no child can have the highest chance to a tru e life w ithout a knowledge of Jesus Christ as He is set fo rth in this Book of books. There are many things we cannot settle or agree upon bu t it seems to me th a t we must be agreed upon this— th a t it is the solemn duty of the church of Jesus Christ to do its utm ost to give every child in America a chance to at least know thé tru th about Christ. It is our desire to do our little p art in train ing the best young people in the church so th a t this obligation to the fu tu re may be met. O ther things are necessary bu t th is is one th ing we cannot neglect w ithout jeopardizing th e very life of the church. To me it seems th a t th e g reatest opportunity of a t least more th a n a hundred years is now before th e church. W hat­ ever is the real explanation of th e fact th ere can be little d oub t-th at a t the present tim e th ere is a w idespread desire upon a p a rt of the ran k and file of the people of America to make it possible for boys and girls to have a chance to know the Bible. Already in more th an fifteen hundred towns and cities th e Bible is being tau g h t to children from one to th ree hours a week in school time. There may be considerable differences of opinion as to how best to do this bu t th ere can be no reasonable question among evangel­ icals th a t it ought to be done. In the ligh t of th is fact we ought to be ready to take full advantage of any oppor­ tu n ity th a t opens up for us to do this. In order th a t we may be ready, we w ant to do all we possibly can to train young men and women in th e Bible and methods of work on lines th a t will be ju st as thorough and adequate as any followed in secular education. When th e opportunity to teach the Bible to th e children of America comes it is the
