DATELEVE DATA

MEXICO CITY - - - The 320 delegates attending the world biennial council in Mexico City, October 12-21, 1972, learned that the Seventh-day Adventist Church is growing faster in Mexico and other Latin American countries than anywhere else in the world. In the first nine months of this year, 7,063 people have been baptized into the Adventist Church in Mexico; and at the same time the council was in session, it was reported 2,800 persons in Mexico City graduated from the Voice of Prophecy Bible Correspondence course. In Jamaica, baptismal services on Sabbath, October 14, brought more than 7,000 persons into the church.

MEXICO CITY - - - Financial aid for famine sufferers in New Guinea in the amount of $11,000 was voted during the October 15 session of the biennial council of the church. SDA Welfare Services is investigating the possibility of other avenues to provide food over a long-range period for New Guinea. There will be little, if any, food available this year from the island crops. Ordinarily this island with lush jungle and high humidity has copious quantities of rain, but the rains failed to come this year; crops perished, leaving half a million people without food.

MEXICO CITY - - - Statistics presented at the world biennial council placed the current total world membership of the Seventh-day Adventist Church at 2,191,894. Membership increase during the past year was reported at 188,610, with 10.66 percent of this in the Inter-American Division. Member giving averaged $117 per capita for the world; $420.51 per capita for North America.

WEST AFRICA - - - At least 100,000 people in Zaire, West Africa, have asked to become Seventh-day Adventists. Eleven different religious groups want to join en masse. Study of their teachings reveals several similarities with Adventists. The church is sending more workers into the country to conduct classes so the people can become fully acquainted with the Adventist faith before becoming members.

WASHINGTON, D. C. - - - The General Conference has made a gift of $37,500 to the American Bible Society. In the Philippines, Bible distribution has increased 27 percent in the past year as a result of Adventist distribution of the Scriptures. In South America, members have given away 31,000 Bibles in the past two years.

LISBON, PORTUGAL - Adventist World. Radio has added another language - Dutch - to its schedule of weekly shortwave broadcasts. This brings to 16 the number of languages being broadcast from the Lisbon-based station. The station, which began broadcasting one year ago, is on the air 13 hours a week. Incoming mail during the first nine months totaled 3,000 letters from across Europe. JOHN'S UNIQUE .IFE IN COME AGREEMENT Some years ago John, now 54, purchased securities costing $4,000. These are now worth $10,000. John would like to use these assets to make a deferred contribution to the church from which he and his wife, Susan, now 50, can realize an income for life. But John is concerned about capital gains tax — and rightly so, since he is in the 50 percent income tax bracket. JOHN'S • • AGREEMEN' John transfers these securities to his conference association. The conference association accepts them at market value and sets up a life income plan for John and Susan. The donation entitles John to take a charitable deduction of $1,906.10 from his income tax — a tax saving of $953.05, plus JOHN'S $1,500 on capital gains tax. • LIFE • . . John can now live relaxed — knowing that they will receive an estimated $600.00 annually from earnings of the church's pooled income fund for life, an effective return because of tax savings of 7.8%. And the church will ultimately retain the entire amount for God's work.

EIGHT discards the Bible. He said it was his conviction that God used evolution and still uses it as a process of growth and develop- ment. "I won't try to explain why God would take ten million years or so to create man," Darwin said, "but He did." Earl Prest, local Seventh-day Adventist minister, then rose to present the creation- ist's viewpoint. He showed that Darwin's idea was a theory and nothing more than that. Darwin never proved it. No one else did. Darwin simply contended that it seems possible, through natural selection and survival of the fittest, there was an evolution of life forms. This theory came under fire when Pastor Prest stated, "It takes faith to believe anything which cannot be demonstrated. "But, since Seventh-day Adventists accept the Bible as a divinely-inspired revelation of a supreme intellect of the universe," he went on, "Seventh-day Adventists find the creation story of the Bible the most intellectually appealing and reasonable of all possible theories on the Famed Rhea County Courthouse in Dayton, Tennessee, has origin of life." been the setting for many a "Creation vs. Evolution" debate.

ELEVEN z z IMPROVEMENTS FORMULATED AT MADISON ACADEMY

Madison Academy has achieved a "new look" in U the past few months. Due to the efforts of the relatively new "Committee of 120" and other generous gifts, many improvements have taken place. z First of the projects sponsored by the Committee of 120 was carpeting of the hallway and stairs in the class- room building. The result was a much quieter building and improved looks. The Committee also provided New I ,ilguage lab equipment. funds for language lab equipment and instructional ma- terials for the English department. In addition, the English room, located in the library building, was com- pletely re-decorated with new and better lighting, drapes, and colorful chair-desks. The academy main- tenance department, under the direction of Paul Casler, cooperated in these improvements by building the necessary tables and booths for the language lab and by painting the English classroom. Latest additions to the academy by the Committee of 120 have been new chair-desks and a magnetic chalkboard for the math and science departments. "The Committee of 120," says Dr. Don Bethea, chairman, "has been a great way for local people to become involved with the academy. Not only does the physical plant benefit, but this involvement generates New classroom chair-desks. enthusiasm on the part of the participants and also those who benefit from it." The Committee has grown Redecorated and refurnished library. considerably since its inception. "We are able to pro- vide those things which mean so much to the students and teachers," adds Dr. Bethea. A very noticeable change has also taken place in the academy library. Not only was the entire area painted during the summer, but generous private donations furnished carpet and new chairs which are expected to arrive soon. Drapes have also been ordered, another contribution of the Committee of 120. Elizabeth Cowd- rick, librarian, spent most of her summer vacation paint- ing bookshelves and woodwork and otherwise imple- menting the improvements. Other items provided by private donations have been air conditioning for the Bible classroom, a driver education visual-aid board, and tennis equipment for New magnetic chalkboard in math-science classroom—Mr. Paul Priest. the physical education department. John Wagner, principal of Madison Academy, states that "the purpose of the Committee of 120 is to fill needs that cannot be provided from operating funds. Improvements already made have boosted the morale of students and teachers. We sincerely appreciate these efforts to make Madison Academy even better." There are still many projects which the Committee of 120 wishes to undertake to better Madison Academy. A larger Committee could accomplish still more. Any- one wishing to join the Committee or contribute to some specific project should contact Elder Wagner or Dr. Bethea. LI LYA WAGNER Public Relations Secretary, Madison Academy

HIGHLAND ACADEMY IMPROVEMENTS

The 1972-73 school year is well under way at Highland Academy. As a result of the Student Asso- ciation campaign, the cafeteria has an icemaker, the school has a stereo record player, a video tape re- corder and monitor, and lights will soon be installed on the ball field. The Committee of 120 has furnished the cafeteria with new tables and chairs. Students and faculty were happily surprised when an anonymous family in the conference donated funds for five air condi- tioners to be installed in all the classrooms of the administration building. Highland Industries, makers of plastic bags, re- cently purchased a second automatic machine. At present, the plant employs two adults and ten stu- dents. This spring a second industry was started—a construction company where seven boys are learning a valuable trade as well as earning money toward schooling. They are contracting homes in the com- munity. One of their first projects was a 4,800 square-foot building that houses the latest industry, the Wilks Publishing Company. The company prints a weekly "Television Schedule" that is sold to gro- cery stores. It has a circulation of 80,000 plus per week. The future plans include printing newspapers and starting a job shop. Eight students are working for Wilks Publishing Company. This new enterprise has also brought three new families to the academy.
