and good spirit at both services.
At the evening hour the Church
observed its two ordinances, ad

activities, the Church reported a
present total membership of 681,
with additions during the 1952-53
church year of 68 and total re

Promotional Director and Miss
Phyllis Lail as Church Secretary.
The Church also embarked up
on a Building Fund Raising Pro

Schools must koep pace with
the modern, changing world a
round them as much as possible.
Therefore, students in our schools
are now enjoying the benefits of
an audio-visual program to sup
plement their printed texts. Each
school is making progress in the
use of the 16mm. movie projector
time goes on, this phase of school
work will be improved and en
larged.
One effective visual aid is the
use of the 16mm. movie propector
that each school has. A special
daylight screen is used so that
the film can be shown in the
classroom in connection with the
unit of study. Films are selected
in advance by the teachers to fit
their courses, and a film schedule
is set up for the entire year. Each
group of films is sent to each of
the four schools on certain dates.
In that way, the course of study
can be planned so that the film
is available at the right time. The
city board provides 300 units of
films for the schools. This num
ber is greatly supplemented by
the individual schools.

Another phase of the audio-vis

strips. Each school has film strip
projectors and a film strip library
to supplement almost every sub
ject taught. There is a good selec
tion of Popular. Science film
strips which is growing rapidly.
The Central High School and Ele
mentary School belong to the
Popular Science "Film of the
Month" club. These are up to date
and interesting to the students.
There are several auditory de
vices used in the schools. Central
School has an lnter-communica
tlons system which is used to re
lay radio programs, and chapel
programs to the rooms. There is
also a tape recorder which can

are many phonographs in use
throughout the schools. Record

form, many classical pieces, folk
