“ Reverend” J. B. Trowbridge. Pos sibly it was the Dean’s mistake but many of us believe that in this case the title might be carried with a very good grace. — o—r Prof. H. G. Tovey, who with Mrs. Tovey and Miss Ruth have been spend ing the summer in Australia, landed September 28th. They report a vaca tion of special privilege. Their mis sion was greatly blessed of the Lord. A number of young people whom they met are now prospective students, and several found the Lord through their ministry. Prof. Tovey has resumed his classes in connection with the Music Course. William Brleher, *26, Grand Forks, N. D.: "I accepted the call of the pre siding Elder of the Evangelical Church (Fargo District) to one of their charges out here in the far northwest of North Dakota, and have been labor ing in this field since July 12, 1926. I am serving two churches, one at Don aldson, Minn., and another at McAr thur, N. D. These churches are about 85 miles from Grand Forks, and I go to each church every other Sunday.” -..o -- Miss Aurora Fluker, *24, Koon Shan, Sai Ch’ul, Kwong Tung, South China: “ We would not forget the many bless ings and answers to prayer— but we do long and earnestly pray for a real quickening in the hearts of all the Christians and that they might be more used in soul winning. We also are praying that the Christians might have more regard for the Lord’s day . . . . I suppose I am improving a, little all along in the language but it must be very little— I don’t have much time for study.” — o— Rev. and Mrs. George C. Van Dusen, Evening School, ’20, sailed September 6th for their work with the Africa Inland Mission. As they go back from their furlough in America they write to all their friends: “ We covet the prayer help of God’s people every where, realizing as we do that so much depends upon your faithfulness as co workers together with us in His great harvest field. We praise God for His tender care over us during the months we have been in the homeland, and wish to thank all who have made our furlough such a pleasant and happy time.” Rev. J. Clarence Orr, ’22, minister of the First Baptist Church at Inde pendence, Oregon, is editing a very interesting and no doubt helpful parish paper, “ The Baptist Herald.” A re cent issue records an item or two of
Marriages Deborah Annie Clark, *19, to Mr. Ernest Belden Warrlner, at Holly wood j California, August 25th, 1926. — o— The Following Prospective Students are Worthy of Note A son, Joseph Robinson, born on tbe 29th of April, to Mr. and Mrs. Allyn B Cooke, *18 (nee Leila Robinson), China Inland Mission, Stockade Hill, Longling P.

Mary Elizabeth, weight e i g h t pounds, is the newest member of the Bible Institute family, having arrived at the home of Rev. and Mrs. Albert E. Kelly on September 12th. No wonder the Student Secretary wore a smile on registration days. Little Miss Mary has already entered upon her duties as manager of the Kelly household. Carl Henry, born September 10th, to Mr. and Mrs. Eric Swadell, *25. Mr. and Mrs. Swadell are enjoying their own home at Louisville, Kentucky, where Mr. Swadell is attending the Seminary.

Let us bear her up in prayer that she may have His guidance at this time. ■■-O' " Mrs. E d w a r d D a e r 'k s e n , *28, passed away September 16th, 1926 at her home at Alson, North Dakota,

where they were stationed to take care of a congregation of the Mennonite General Conference of America. Mr. and Mrs. Jacob R. Duerksen, *21 and *19 respectively, planned to sail for India last month. They will be stationed in the Central Provinces where the Mennonite General Confer ence of America has a mission field. The present student roll carries among the new students names that are quite familiar: Lllyqnist, Braun, Elliott, and others. Three young ladies come from one home, and the word is that a fourth sister is to enter the second semester. It would be of interest to look back over the rolls of former years to dis cover how many Ruths have attended B. I. This year adds several to the list. In fact this name stands first in number of representatives. We re member the Ruth from Moab, and con clude there must be something in a name after all. Miss Beatrice Tannehill, *26, sailed from New York September 6th, en route for work with the Africa Inland Mission. She had the pleasure of being in the party with Rev. and Mrs. Geo. C. Van Dusen. In the September issue of "Inland Africa” an open letter from Miss Tannehill expresses her Joy in service and her great desire to reach the field.
