The Appeal of the Covenant of Grace

Alonzo J. Wearner

Spiritual Standards for Musicians

Roy Allan Anderson

The motto of the American Guild of Or­ganists is one which every church musician would do well to study. We reproduce it in full, believing that our church leaders will be interested to see that a cultural group such as the guild of organists recognizes and empha­sizes the spiritual standards essential for all true worship.

In the Time of Old Age

Daniel H. Kress

How often do those who have passed the strength of manhood cling to the hope of accomplishing some great work upon whiclr their hearts are set, but which they are unfitted to perform. God may speak to them, as did the prophet to David, declaring that the work which they so much desire is not committed to them.

Scope of Our Medical Work-3

Francis D. Nichol

The genius of the Advent Movement is against concentration of men and resources in one spot, it matters not whether the men be preachers, teachers, publishers, or plain church members. The genius of this great movement calls for spreading out and ever farther out. Can anyone give valid reasons why this princi­ple should not apply to our medical men?

The Other Half of the Gospel

Special Nights and Occasions

Ben Glanzer
