B. Y. P. U. I
The B. Y. P. U's. are doing splen-1
did work. The grades are not what
they should be, but we are trusting
that each member of both sections
will strive to help make his or her
union one hundred per cent. We
are hoping that there will break out,
among our students, a spiritual ep-1
idemic of B. Y. P. U. enthusiasm J
that will be so contagious that no |
student can evade it.
Our general assemblies have been j
very interesting and uplifting. Mes- j
sages that were both educational j
and spiritual have been given us at j

[thoughts. Dr. Davis brought us a

jfirst: The past; second, The present
i and last, The future. All these chal
! lenge us to give our best to the world
and to mankind.
Brother Jenkins, our pastor, gave
us a very profitable message. He
! spoke on the ""Value of an Organized
: Prayer Life." The speaker empha
sized the forming of a prayeT list,
and the development of specific
praying.

t couragement shown us by o»r facul

I ciation by making our B. Y. P. U.
one hundred percent in efficiency for
Christ.

Capjak, out of work eighteen
months, has amused himself by mak
ing a miniature cannon, with a gas

rubber band for the firing mechan

board attached to four small wheels.

pistol cartridge in the cannon breech,
pointed the muzzle at his chest and
snapped the rubber band, discharg
ing the bullet in his lungs.
