"AN ENEMY HATH DONE THIS"
JAMES V. SCULLY,
Director of Youth Activities, American Temperance Society
Someone has said that "Alcohol would destroy the church if it could; the
church could destroy alcohol if it would."
"The conflict against this evil, which is destroying the image of God in
man, must be vigorously maintained. The warfare is before us. No tame message
will have influence now. God looks upon our world as revolted and corrupted,
but He will send His holy angels to aid those who will engage to destroy the
worship of these idols." Temperance, p. 239.
Conflicts and wars are expensive. The budget for our national armament
grows every year. Here we are, living at a time when men are being destroyed
by the enemy of truth through intemperate habits. "The whole world seems to
be marching to its death," Sister White tells us. Are we concerned?
You can add strength and supplies needed to combat the enemy of truth
by giving liberally when the temperance offering is taken in your church.
"Every true reform has its place in the work of the third angel's message.
Especially does the temperance reform demand our attention and support."
Temperance, p. 234.
The battle line can be strengthened by lectures, new films, literature,
and more personnel, made possible through your gifts. Today's gifts mean tomorrow's souls, rescued from the stronghold of the enemy.
An envelope like the one pictured on this page will be placed in your
hand October 27. Will you respond and give a generous offering for temperance
on that Sabbath? Your gift may be the means of staying what the "enemy has
done" in some specific heart.

WORLD TEMPERANCE DAY,
OCTOBER 27
All Thoughtful American citizens
should be grateful to the American Temperance Society for the vigorous and unselfish campaign which it is waging to
discourage the use of alcohol, tobacco,
and illicit narcotics.
The scientific evidence that alcohol,
tobacco, and narcotics are undermining
the health of this nation is now so
abundant as to be beyond all reasonable
doubt. The success of the campaign
which the society is waging may very
well be one of the keys to the survival
of our democratic way of life.
Sincerely,
David S. King
Member of Congress
We believe our Sabbath School members in North America and throughout
the world have also received a blessing
as they have given of their means to
make these facilities available to their
brethren in other lands.
Together with the Northern European
Division the General Conference Sabbath School Department wishes to say
a hearty "thank you."

A dinner in honor of Dr. E. A. Leonhardt, who this past summer completed
his doctoral program and received his
degree, and Mr. W. E. Page, who has
completed all the work toward his doctorate and will receive his degree in
December, was held Sunday evening,
October 11, in the Golden Crown Room
of King's Buffet in Lincoln.
Drs. R. G. Leffler and P. W. Joice were
in charge of plans for the dinner. Other

Annual Testing Program in Progress
The annual testing program, sponsored
by Union College, is now being administered to students in the academies of
the Central and Northern Unions. The
tests given include a scholastic aptitude
test, an achievement test, and a test to
determine vocational interests.
These tests reveal to the academies
the progress of the students in relation
to high schools throughout the United
States. They are valuable to the college
in determining the students who might
be successful in college. All members of
the senior class in each academy are
counseled individually with test records
available.
Dr. L. W. Welch, professor of religion
and guidance, has administered these
tests at Sheyenne River Academy,

Freshman Nursing Students
Visit Clinical Campus
Thirty-seven freshmen nursing students

be like.
On Saturday evening, October 5, the
Associated Student Body of the Colorado
campus sponsored a talent program for
the benefit of the visiting freshmen.
Target Teams Visit

first major soul-winning activity of the
school year. One hundred and eight
teams, representing about one-fourth of
the Union Oollege student body, participated in this venture.
The procedure followed in this visitation program was to take a religious interest survey and to leave at each home

Mrs. Rose Anne Job, a graduate of
Jamestown College, Jamestown, North
Dakota, has been added to the library
staff as a full-time worker. She is supervising the processing of books purchased
from the $10,000 grant from the W. K.
Kellogg Foundation, Battle Creek, Michigan.
The cataloging department of the
library has processed 386 new titles

a number of added copies or volumes.
Thirty-five students, totaling ap'roximately 550 hours per week, are assisting
in the library.
Union College World Tour
Around the world in seventy days!
Sounds almost as exciting as the onetime popular book by Jules Verne,
Around the World in Eighty Days,
doesn't it? This trip will actually be a
dream come true for 35 ambitious travelers who will join the "around-the-world"
tour next summer, sponsored by the
history and English departments of Union
College. Dr. R. K. Nelson, chairman of
the history department and director for
the tour, states that six hours of credit
will be available, three in Eurasian literature and three in modern Asian history.
At the present time nearly 60 people
have expressed an interest in the tour,
24 having already signed up to go. The
tour is not restricted to those who wish
college credit; however, the charges are
the same.
According to present plans, the group
will leave Omaha by jet plane for Los
Angeles on June 11, and return to
Omaha from New York by jet on August
22. A definite day-by-day itinerary may
be obtained by writing to Dr. Nelson at
Union College.
According to reports, tour members
are already arranging for light-weight
suitcases and drip-dry, no-iron clothing.
Traveling from hot, sultry Singapore to
burning Sinai and then to chilly Norway
will take a variety of well-chosen clothing.
Expenses will be kept to a minimum,
reports Dr. Nelson and only hardy
travelers are urged to go. The total cost
will be approximately $2,200. This price
includes meals, lodging, guide fees, admissions, and all transportation. Gifts,
film, etc., of course, will be extra. By
avoiding lavish hotels and high-priced
CENTRAL UNION REAPER
tourist centers, expenses may be kept to
a moderate level. Group rates can be
obtained on nearly everything, thus making a substantial over-all saving.
High lights of the tour, as always on
a Union-sponsored tour, will be stops at
Adventist medical and educational institutions, where many of Union's former
students cherish one end of a golden
cord.
Other special locations of interest
which have gained an enthusiastic response from correspondents are: Pearl
Harbor in Hawaii; Mt. Fujiyama and
Hiroshima in Japan; a canoe trip on the
ocean in Okinawa; a visit to a tailor

News From District 15
Sabbath, September 22 was a high
day in the experience of our faithful
people in southwest Kansas as eight
precious souls were received into fellowship of the various churches in the district, seven by baptism and one by
profession of faith. Elder H. C. Klement,
our new conference president, conducted
the sacred rite of baptism for Pastor
C. J. Owens. These precious souls, as
they were baptized into the Lord Jesus
Christ, will be an encouragement to

strength in finishing the work our Master
has entrusted to each of us. Faithful
laymen especially had a vital part in
bringing these to Christ.
After the Sabbath services we had
fellowship together by enjoying the bounties of a nice lunch together. Following
our lunch, a special feature of the afternoon was hearing first hand a report
from a portion of the mission field of
Africa in which Dr. Arthur Owens,
medical missionary, labored with his
family. Dr. and Mrs. Owens and family
have been on furlough and were en
route back east to return to their field
of labor. Sundown vespers was conducted
by Elder Clark Dilts. publishing secretary
of our conference. At the close of a good
Sabbath, Brother Howard Fisher, Kansas Book & Bible House manager, showed
an outstanding film, "Mightier Than the
Sword," concerned with the reading of
good and bad material and its respective
results to the reader. Many of our believers then had the opportunity to
purchase good books for home and family
enjoyment.
Many other soul-winning activities have
been carried on which will rear) results
for the Master such as soul-winning
Bible studies by faithful laymen, the
Fair Booth in one of our Target Towns
featuring our work and ministry by
television Bible Schools, and Welfare
activities. Three of the above mentioned
baptisms were from our Target Town.
Pastor Owens is concluding a two-week
evangelistic meeting of decision in the
Liberal church with six coming forward
desiring to unite with the remnant
church. These, after further study, will
be received into fellowship at a later
date.

Temperance Club Organized
Registration day brought many eager
and happy faces to the campus of Enterprise Academy on September 2. In
order to capture the enthusiasm of the
day for the cause of temperance, the
student officers with the help of Brother
and Sister B. E. Jacobs were able to
enroll all but about six of our 103 students in the temperance club. We had
100% enrollment last year, and we are
certain before too many weeks go by
that we will again reach this goal.
The temperance club officers are:
president, Jan Schultz; vice-president,
Jeannine English; secretary-treasurer,
Terry Morris and Ann Carrick.
The club is planning to schedule
appointments in surrounding high schools
to show temperance films.
The way the students responded is
evidence of God's blessing. Pray for us
at Enterprise Academy that this spirit
of co-operation and dedication to the
program of the church may grow and
blossom into a large army of workers

News From District 7
We are happy to report to our friends
and believers that in the recent serious
storm at Abilene, Kansas, our members
and church were unhurt. One family
suffered some injury to their trailer
house. We thank God for His divine
protection in the hour of storm.
We are conducting evangelistic meetings at Abilene for a five-week period.
We earnestly request the prayers of
our people that many will learn of the
soon coming of Christ. In a similar series
held in Manhattan, Kansas, during the
months of June and July, our people
supported the meetings very loyally, and
five persons expressed their desire to
unite with the church.
Our district Pathfinder organization
is meeting regularly with a steady increase in membership.
Students from Enterprise Academy are
assisting in the sowing of seed in our
two Target Towns and in other small
towns nearby.

Farewell
We wish to take this opportunity to
thank all of our people in the Kansas
Conference for their wonderful co-operation in the support of God's work here
in this conference and for their help
during the past nine years with the program that has been carried on. It has
been very gratifying to see our soulwinning program grow from year to year
and to see the blessings of God in our
building program throughout the conference, and in particular the Enterprise
building program. This has been possible
only by your generosity and your faithful
support of the program of God.
So as we leave, we say a big "Thank
you" and may the Lord bless and keep
you until we meet again.

Your Temperance Offering
What It Will Be Used For
Emphasis in the Colorado Conference
temperance activities has been primarily
directed to our young people in our
schools along educational lines. Temperance educational literature during the
1962-63 school year is being sent to
every elementary student in the conference. A special temperance education
week is being held on the campus of
5
Campion Academy October 22-27. Guest
speakers will feature two outstanding
physicians and surgeons, and a state
welfare official who will tell the plain
truth on the results of smoking and drinking and their effects on the individual
and on the state. A field trip to the
Denver traffic court, drunk court, narcotics court, plus a visit to the state
alcoholic rehabilitation center will be
very impressive and educational to the
young people.
Our main efforts will continue to be
placed in the direction of our own young
people primarily; to save them from the
evils of intemperance is to help save
them for the kingdom of God.
Our secondary efforts will be directed
to our communities by making available
to them educational temperance motion
pictures, film strips, literature and public
meetings.
All of these activities are very expensive, thus your help is greatly needed.
When the temperance offering is taken
on October 27 please join your fellow
church members in North America by
participating. Offering envelopes and
flyers have been sent to your church
treasurer and temperance secretary, respectively, for our use and information.
Thanks so much for joining in the temperance program for North America by
giving your offering on October 27.

Farmington Church Booth at
The Fair
The Farmington church booth at the
San Juan County Fair had its share of
interested visitors, in spite of stiff competition from a beauty salon demonstrating the latest in bizarre, rainbowhued, and peacock-feathered hairdos.
With the theme, "Medical Evangelism
Around the World," the corner booth
featured a colorful pastel-painted reproduction of the Monument Valley
Mission Hospital in Utah on one entire
wall of the display. On a curved shelf
in front of the painting, a 3-D arrangement of desert sage on rolling terrain
was set off with miniature Indian figures
and a covered wagon and pony.
On the other wall, clustered around
a large, hand-painted reproduction of
Loma Linda University, were scenes
from various other mission areas around
the world. A life-size profile of Christ,
as "the Great Physician," was arranged
at one end so as to appear to be over-

looking the entire booth. White latticework, entwined with artificial foliage in
autumn colors, enclosed each end of the
booth, and several large potted plants
added a refreshing touch of greenery.
In harmony with the theme of Medical Missions, the Health and Happiness
correspondence course was offered, for
which there were 107 enrollments at
the booth. Dr. Clifford Anderson's new
medical books, Modern Ways to Health,
was featured as the grand prize for the
individual correctly answering the most
questions on a written Bible quiz. Second
prize was China Doctor, the life story
of Dr. Harry Miller. Courage for the
Crisis was the 'book used for the twicedaily free drawings.
Those who manned the booth reported
considerable interest in the display. Two
young men from other booths in the
fair expressed their desire to learn more
about the Adventist church and what
they believe. Another young man, recently returned from Korea, spoke
warmly of our work there and in Japan.
He was connected with the fair as an
official and as we were getting ready
to leave on the last day, he stopped to
visit and told us how many people had
commented favorably on our attractive
display. Among those who signed for
the Health and Happiness course were
the county sheriff and an English teacher
from the high school.
On Saturday night, Miss Nelle Mulliken and Miss Wanda Green, two of the
nurses from Monument Valley Mission,
were present to add interest to our
featured subject.
The Indian Fair
At the close of the Farmington Fair,
lc was suggested that it might be possible to move our exhibit to the Indian
Fair at Shiprock, New Mexico, 30 miles
away. There we were cordially received
by the white man in charge of the educational displays and given a prominent
place in full view of everyone who came
through the main entrance gate. It was
not possible to set up our display exactly
as we had in Farmington, but we arranged a good display with the limited
facilities, and it proved very effective
in attracting a steady stream of visitors,
both Navajo and white.
The Indians were especially interested
in the the picture of the mission hospital
in Monument Valley and a very friendly
spirit prevailed. Navajo members of our
church in Shiprock, as well as interested
Indian friends, assisted Mrs. Veda
Scholder with the translations, as well
as in obtaining signatures for the free
drawings and the prize book, the first
volume of the 10-volume Bible Story
set.
About a thousand papers were given
away at the Shiprock Indian Fair, which
included Signs of the Times, Who Cares,
and A Quick Look at Seventh-day Adventists. There were 148 enrollments for
the Health and Happiness course. A
Navajo police officer stopped to look at
the exhibit and told Mrs. Schclder that
his sister was one of the curses at Monument Valley. A young Indian woman
who had shared a hospital room ‘-ith
Mrs. Scholder in Farmington last year
stopped by to express her appreciation
Our small church membership in
Limon was made very happy as they saw
26 come forward to join the baptismal
class at the end of a three-week tent
meeting which was held in that city.
Six of those who took their stand have
already been baptized, and another
baptism will be held soon. We are
thankful for these new members, and it
will strengthen our church in Limon
very much.
We appreciate the fine work our evangelistic team, Elder Harold Williams and
Brother Dick Martin, is doing in the
Colorado Conference. The pastor of the
Limon District, Pastor Eugene Taylor,
certainly gave them excellent help. We
also appreciate the support that the
members gave the team during this
meeting.
We want to ask an interest in your
prayers for the new members who are
coming into the church in Limon.
The team is in Farmington, New
Mexico, where a three-week meeting
was begun on October 13 in the church.
If you have any relatives and friends
living there, please let them know about
the meeting. We feel sure the Lord will
bless our team as they continue to work
for souls.

The H.M.S. Richards Elementary

educational program. The enrollment
this year is 126 students, which is a

Due to the need of a larger room for
the first and second grades, the school
board made plans to finish a room at
the Campion unit to take care of these
students. The room is now completed
with a recitation room, two rest rooms,
and built-in cabinets for storage space.
The newly-completed room with the
other finished part of the building make

School something that Campion and

churches are supporting the meetings
enthusiastically. Interest in the messages
presented is splendid. A number of nonAdventists as well as Seventh-day Adventists have mentioned how much they
appreciate the clarity of the presentation
of the Bible truths.
Let us pray earnestly for a good harvest
of souls in St. Charles. We have no
church there—but this may be the beginning of one. Let us pray accordingly!

H.M.S. Richards Elementary School, Unit Two, at Campion, Loveland, Colorado.
Loveland are proud of. The Unit One
building in Loveland was repainted on
the exterior this summer, thus keeping
it an attractive school also.
Miss Jane Ann Reding, the third and
fourth grade teacher, and Miss Joyce
Morse, the fifth and sixth grade teacher,
are new at the school this year and
they are already doing a fine work. Mrs.
Roy Klingenberg, the first and second
grade teacher, is enjoying the new room
and doing an excellent job with the
little ones. Mrs. Nellie Jensen, the seventh and eight grade teacher and principal, is to be commended for her very
fine work in teaching and leadership.

Kansas City Professional
Club Enjoys Annual Meeting
Some 100 students, their families, and
guests made a Sabbath retreat to the
rolling Missouri woodlands to perpetuate
an autumn classic under the auspices of
the Seventh-day Adventist Professional
Club. All the members of the club hold
membership in or attend our churches in
the Kansas City area.
The week end of September 29, a
group of future Christian physicians from
the Kansas City College of Osteopathy
and Surgery shared fellowship at Knob
Noster State Park.
Comprised of students who did their
undergraduate work at the various denominational colleges this group is currently making a significant contribution
to the spiritual tone and impact of the
Advent message in Kansas City. Notwithstanding the worldly academic environment these men find opportunity to
call attention to the distinctive Adventist
health and moral truths.
Elder James E. Chase made an appeal
in his Sabbath message for professional
excellence motivated by the principles of
evangelical medicine. Among the participating guests were Elders E. L. Moore
and A. H. Liebelt with their wives, and
Mrs. James E. Chase.
DAVID MCFADDIN,
President, Professional Club
Welcome—Elder and Mrs.
A. H. Liebelt!
Yes—we welcome you, Elder and Mrs.
A. H. Liebelt and family to the Missouri
Conference. Through
the years God has
richly blessed your
ministry in North
Dakota and more recently in Iowa where
you served so faithfully as district pastor
and also in the publishing work. We believe that again you
A. H. Liebelt
will be blessed in
service as pastor of the Kansas City
Park Memorial church. Lyndell and
Lyndon, we are happy you have chosen
Union College as your college and are
already there, and Lynn, we are glad
you are at Kansas City Junior Academy!

Report on St. Charles
Meetings
On Sunday night September 30, a
series of meetings was launched in St.
Charles,. Missouri, by Elders L. R. Mansell, Arthur Hagele, and Brother James
Hoover. Despite the torrential downpour
of rain, both before and during the
meeting, there was a good attendance.
The members of the St. Louis and Troy
Thirteen carloads of students from
Sunnydale Academy made their annual
Ingathering trip on Thursday, October
4. Bright clear weather served to add
to the joys of the day.
When all the funds were counted at
the close of the day nearly one thousand
dollars had been added to the cause of
God.
One group found a church member
who had been isolated for some time.
Another reported finding interests that
are worthy of being followed up.
It is a pleasure to work with this
group of dedicated students who are
determined to serve the Lord. Every
student participated in this endeavor and
made victory possible.
J. M. STONE, Principal
Fremont District
God is blessing in the Fremont District. A series of meetings were begun
in July in the City Auditorium at Decatur, Nebraska, by E. V. Schultz with the
faithful assistance of M. M. Voegele,
neighboring district pastor of the South
Sioux City District, and wonderfully supported by the members of the Tekamah
Rural and Tekamah City churches. Several people are now keeping the Sabbath
as a result of this series of meetings and
are looking forward to baptism.
A baptism was conducted in the Fremont church Sabbath, October 13, when
a number of souls being studied with by
the writer united with God's remnant
church. Through friendship with our
neighbors a recent thrilling experience
has come to us of seeing our next door
neighbor accept this truth. After giving
Bible studies to this family every Friday night, I will now have the privilege
of baptizing them.
Interests are developing throughout
8
CENTRAL UNION REAPER
the district as a result of the Twentieth
Century Bible School, evangelistic meetings, our faithful literature evangelists,
door-to-door contacts and faithful witnessing of our members. Our people of
the Fremont District are of good courage, faithfully supporting the cause of
God with their tithes and offerings and
soul-winning activities.
Having labored for four years in the
Fremont District and now preparing to
move to another field of labor in the
Nebraska Conference, my family and I
do so with reluctance. We cherish fond
memories of associating and working together with our people of the Fremont
District.
We bid farewell to the churches of the
Fremont District and will carry forward
our support of the cause of God to our
new district in the sure and certain hope
of the soon return of our Lord.
E. V. SCHULTZ,
District Pastor
These three ladies are faithful members of
the Neligh church.
These Lives a Testimony
The ladies pictured above are members of the Neligh, Nebraska, SDA
Church and all are 85 years of age or
older. They have been members of the
Seventh-day Adventist Church for 60
years. Left to right: Mrs. Minnie Cowin
does much traveling by air and train.
She is spending this winter at Loma Linda, California; Mrs. Phoebe Bates Guild
is a distant relative of Joseph Bates. Her
pastime is repeating the books of the
Bible and singing hymns from memory;
Mrs. Anna Pederson comes 25 miles to
church and lives on a farm north of
Meadow Grove. We thank the Lord for
the testimony of these faithful members.
MABEL GUILD,
Church PR Secretary
These nine youth were invested in a late
summer investiture service at Beatrice, Nebraska.
Plan Ahead for a Church
School
Eleven of Nebraska's 21 districts are
served by church schools. This leaves
ten districts with no church school. Districts which have church schools are able
to hold their vigorous young couples who
are the strength of the church now and
for the future. Two districts which have
no schools have set up school boards to
plan and prepare for the school which
they are sure they want in the next few
years. Congratulations to Beatrice and
Norfolk districts for this forward step.
Other districts ought to follow.
There are many young people in the
Beatrice District. Under the leadership
of Mrs. Ervin Funk they have been interested and active in the JMV work.
Nine of them were invested late this
summer. See the accompanying picture.
Church schools closed last fall with an
enrollment of 500 in the ten schools of
the Nebraska Conference. The eleven
schools now in operation show an opening report of 513 students. A new school
has been opened at Gothenburg this fall.
It is time now to start planning for the
school you hope to open next fall.
ROBERT A. TYSON,
Superintendent
The district is proud again of its enrollment in Platte Valley Academy this
year. Nearly every young person of
academy age is in attendance there.
The Dorcas also has been busy helping
the folk of the community that have
needed it.
We link our hands with the rest of
the good people of Nebraska, the union,
and the world field to carry the gospel
to all people so that the coming of Jesus
may be soon, and that we may hear the
well done thou good and faithful servant.
This is our prayer and aim through the
grace and power of Jesus.

The Imperial District has been busy

and a number of studies have been
completed with decisions still to he

study, this lady said she could not wait
a week for another study but wanted one
every day. Only two weeks from date
of contact this good woman and some
of her family were visitors in the Laramie
church.
The Lord is working to finish the work
quickly; God's people are willing in the
day of His power, and we shall see
wonderful things happen. We can soon

L. 0. BARNES, Pastor
The enthusiasm of the Cheyenne laymen in taking the Bibles for the Bible Marking
Plan was so great the supply was depleted before everyone could obtain one.
Power in the Word
How often have we had the good works
brought to our attention from the Spirit
of Prophecy, "Hundreds and thousands
were seen visiting families, and opening
before them the word of God. Hearts
were convicted by the power of the Holy
Spirit, and a spirit of genuine conversion
was manifest."—Testimoni s, Vol. 9, p.
126.
We have been inclined to place this
experience among the wonderful things
that will somehow take place List prior
to Christ's coming by some mighty work
of the Holy Spirit. This could be a fatal
mistake fo- some who sit idly by waiting
for things to happen instead of seeking
methods to bring the prophecy to a
soon fulfillment.
Every evidence that the method to
do this very work is now available and
is clearly seen in the leading of our Lord
in the Bible Marking Plan. Could this
be "the simple method" that God will
use to finish the work quickly? For years
many costly devices have been used by
evangelists and laymen to attract the
interest of the public to the message of
the Seventh-day Adventist church. We
have not met with the measure of success
that we would like to have. The best
minds of the denomination have been
busy devising better methods of evangelism, but the tendency has been in
the direction of complicated devices.
A wonderful discovery was made and
a real interest was created in the truths
of the message for today by a simple,
personal Bible Marking Plan. There is
power in the Word!
Our good people are showing a willingness to co-operate with God in this
plan. It is encouraging to all to find a
simple, inexpensive plan that realty
works. Last Sabbath the plan was presented to the Cheyenne church in an
afternoon meeting conducted by Elders
E. E. Hagen, G. C. Williamson, and
H. H. Voss. The enthusiastic Cheyenne
laymen over subscribed the supply of
Bibles brought to the meeting. They were
encouraged by reports from other
churches from which stories of success
came. One of these came from Laramie
where the plan was launched by Elder
Voss one month before. Mrs. Jewell
Woods took a Bible at that time and
contacted a neighbor. After the first
