THE Battle Creek Sanitarium Training-School for Medical Missionary Nurses is an institution for the training of young men and women to engage in various lines of medical and philanthropic work on a Christian basis under the direction of a regularly organized missionary board. The school is evangelical but unsectarian in character. The Gospel is made the basis of all its work. No pupils are received in any branch for merely professional training; only those are received who give evidence of having a divine call to missionary effort along the lines which it is the purpose of this school to promote.
