4 THE RECORD Ark. - La. Conference 17th Biennial Session U-R-THERE A. R. MAZAT At 9:15 Sunday morning, April 26, Elder George Green of Hammond, Louisiana, led the 175 delegates of the 17th biennial session in a Stimu- lating Song Service. The Clear Clarion Call of Elder L. C. Evans, the Union Conference President, sounded the keynote of the day by presenting a study on the 55th chapter of Isaiah. An Ecstatic, Electrifying Experi- ence was shared by all through the warm, winsome smile of Elder 0. D. Wright as he declared the session opened for business. Sister Wahlen of the New Orleans First Church lifted all Honest Hearts Heavenward as she sang, "He smiled on Me." The Polite, Penetrating Poise of Elder P. I. Nosworthy was in evidence as Elder B. L. Cook, the Union audi- tor, verified the Financial Facts and Figures of the past biennium. The name of one Regular, Realistic, Relaxed delegate was chosen from each of the 45 churches, whose name and church were written on a small card and then placed in an empty cylinder. The names of six laymen who had not served on the previous nominating committee were drawn by Becky Swinyar. The laymen repre- sented a cross-section. The names of four ordained minis- ters were drawn who had not served on the previous nominating committee. The six laymen and four ordained ministers comprising the nominating committee Discharged their Duties with Dispatch, so that by 2:30 p.m. Elder L. C. Evans congratulated the re-elected officers of the conference. Elder Wally Welch was elected to serve as MV and Educational Secre- tary. Elder Don Winger, the former MV man, accepted a call to the Ohio Conference as MV Secretary. Three new churches, located at Broadmore, West Memphis, a n d Huntsville were voted into the sister- hood of churches upon the recommen- dation of their respective Positive, Princely Pastors — 0. R. McLean, T. J. Mostert, V. 0. Schneider. At 4:00 p.m. sharp, the happy dele- gates took to the road, and the re- elected officers and the departmental men went to work.

"Thoughts for Thinkers," a series of six ads aimed at serious-minded persons, presents thought- provoking statements on basic tenets of Adventist doctrine. The second set of six advertisements answers the question "What Is a Seventh-day Adventist?" by briefly describing the work and beliefs of the church. The third series of six boldly reaches for the atten- tion of the casual reader who cares little for religion in its usual form. Interested?
