Singing Christmas songs and giving Christmas gifts brought joy and happiness, not only to the family visited, 'but to the girls themselves. On their way again, the temperance team will sing their songs, present their displays, and give their skit to another high school or church.

Laymens Advisory Committee Found Informative The third meeting of our Laymens Advisory Com- mittee was held in Ottawa on Sunday, November 22. These meetings of our laymen have been very helpful. Not all who are members have been able to attend, but we do appreciate those who give their time to listen to reports and make suggestions for the future. At the latest meeting we discussed the election of church officers and the time of year when the new officers should assume their responsibilities. Another subject was the length of time between con- ference sessions. Some conferences have voted to have the election of conference officials at three-year intervals rather than every two years. Some very good suggestions Larry Campbell, Hinsdale's X-Ray and laboratory technician, were made. If we go to a three-year term it was thought used audio-visual aids to better explain his work. it would be well to have a meeting of the pastors and church representatives every year.

SUPPORT SOUGHT FOR INDIANA ACADEMY Sabbath, January 9, has been designated as Indiana Academy Development Day. Support for the rebuilding program of the academy has been steadily increasing, particularly since the Constituency Meeting held in September, 1970. This, of course, was when a nearly unanimous vote directed the conference leadership to plan to rebuild a number of well-used buildings. This is a large undertaking. It means planning and sac- rifice. And it will be a success. May it be that our hearts The letters aren't to anyone personally special, but Debbie Wilson and Barb Ooley are endeavoring to bring inspiration and will be open to the needs of this project. encouragement to S.D.A. servicemen.

By Popular Demand Dr. Cannon Returns Dr. W. John Cannon of the General Conference Educa- tion Department and editor of The Adventist Home LAKE REGION journal, whose open forum on family matters was the most popular workshop at camp meeting last summer, is returning to Indiana for meetings, January 15 to 21. These meetings will be held at the Glendale church located at 2900 East 62nd Street, Indianapolis. Dr. Cannon has served as pastor and evangelist for large city churches. The past several years he has been chairman of the department of behavioral science at Columbia Union College. During these years of service he has shown great interest in the Christian home and its problems. As a Christian leader and administrator he has firmly believed the following words of inspiration: "Never will education accomplish all that it might and should accomplish until the importance of the parents' work is fully recognized and they receive a training for its sacred responsibilities"—Education, page 276. This is the prin- ciple purpose of this series of meetings. Indiana is indeed fortunate to be benefited by a second visit from Dr. Cannon. Every family within driving distance of the Glendale church should plan to attend these meetings. Dr. Cannon will have the forum panel with him on January 15 and 16. See the Bulletin Board page for the time and topic of each meeting.
