Inducting Chinese Converts Into Church

William A. Milliard

New Evangelism Laboratory Opened at Union

Leslie Hardinge

By means of an open house, held on May 1, the newly provided evangelism laboratory of Union Col­lege was initiated and off to a good start. Members of the faculty, workers from the Central Union, the Ne­braska Conference, and the General Conference, as well as the student body, dropped in to look over the renovated rooms, now beautifully decorated and par­tially paneled in wood—from the modern platform to the MuNUM, Multigraph, and duplicating machines for Printing bulletins, sermons, advertising cards, and booklets. The displays were artistically arranged, and drew highly favorable comments. Auspicious days lie ahead.

Eight-Part Parallel Arrangement

C. Ivan Maracle
