Union College

By H. A. Morrison

UNION COLLEGE opened September 15, according to its announcement. The registration days were very busy ones. Thursday, September 17, the regular class work began, and everything was ready to settle down for a year's work of prosperous study and advancement.

We have registered 272 students above the eighth grade to date, October 7. This is practically the same as one year ago at this date. In addition to the above, 120 are enrolled in the model school in grades one to eight.

We have an earnest, devoted class of young people. They indicate that they know what they are here for, and that they understand the intensiveness of the times in which we are living. Our Friday evening praise service is very well attended, and a very hearty response is given by all when opportunity is offered. We feel very grateful that God has sent us so many consecrated young men and women who have as their goal the giving of this gospel message to a dying world. All such experiences as these should teach us that we are nearing the time of our Lord's return, and that he has called each of us to act a part in his closing work. As we look over the past history of Union College, we see her students in all parts of the world holding responsible places. We thus are led to look forward a very short time to see these young people now in Union scattered to all parts of the world, carrying forward this work.

New students are entering daily. Any one who has been late in deciding this question of going to school, and who can yet arrange to do so, should make his decision at once, and we shall be glad to receive him. H. A. MORRISON.
