James J. Short, M.D.
ADVENTIST medicine got off to a good start in the latter half of the nineteenth century. There was an opportunity afforded for scientific research and development that would have placed Adventist medicine far in the vanguard of the medical sciences. Instead of this, after some initial attempts at research by its first outstanding physician, controlled experimental investigation was never established by the Adventist profession and never became a part of Adventist medical tradition. Why?

G. Burnside
It is seventy-five years since three evangelists came to Australia from America and with much fervor and great earnestness began to preach the truths known so well to members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Down through the years many other men have raised their voices to glorify God and tell of His soon coming.

Roy Allan Anderson
From the challenging discussions in the class on pastoral care, led so ably by Charles E. Wittschiebe, these same students emerged with a clearer insight of human nature and the way to meet the many problems of counseling. Professor Wittschiebe was also director of the extension course.

Charles D. Brooks
Recently I made it my business to be near a TV set. It was an eventful morning, one of those that will be referred to in history classes by our children's children, if time should last. Prodded by a recent Russian success, America made her first attempt to put a man in space.

Ethel Young
Almost every Seventh-day Adventist knows that John Nevins Andrews, our first foreign missionary, went to Switzerland. Comparatively few Seventh-day Adventists are aware, however, that it was in this same country that the recommendation was voted by the General Conference Council of 1907 for the establishment of a school for the training of foreign missionaries.

Walter Raymond Beach
It is possible for the minister to become so familiar with the works of evil that he is no longer profoundly moved when he witnesses the inroads and havoc caused by the forces of sin. He no longer feels emotions of revulsion and righteous anger, nor is he stimulated to aggressive warfare. This callous state is a sure sign of professionalism.

Roy Allan Anderson
Who can estimate the power of prayer? It is beyond evaluation. Nothing is so revealing as a minister's public prayers. That is why in all the worship service nothing deserves more careful preparation than the pastoral prayer.
