COVER Will senior teachers still make use of The Worker? The answer is Yes. They will need it for the features which we could not include in the new Teacher's Quarterly. For example, the lesson synopsis, illustrations for the Photo by E. L. Allen lesson, and technical pointers on how to teach the lesson will appear in The Worker. Hence, senior teachers as well as teachers in other divisions will continue to use The Worker as a vital aid to their teaching. Louis B. Reynolds

14 LAKE UNION HERALD PROBING SPACE

PROBING THE VASTNESS OF OUTER SPACE, man has sent giant satellites circling the earth. He envisions the possibility of reaching the moon— and going far beyond. An insatiable curiosity goads him to discover what is happening on other worlds. Probing minds seek answers to fantastic questions. Is there life on other planets? Will it be possible for man to actually visit far away worlds? What will be the limits of space travel? The greatest space exploration of all will take place when God's kingdom is established. Then those who have served Christ faithfully will have oppor- tunity to tour God's vast universe. Nor will they need rockets to do it. Faith for Today's Bible Course paves the way for entry "to that city which hath foundations, whose build- er and maker is God."

STUDENTS USE COMPUTER Over 25 per cent of the 1401 computer's use at An drews University is by students and faculty for academic purposes. The physics department uses the 1401 for researcl projects, data analysis for student experiments, problen UNIVERSITY solving and class work, and inventory and test grading says Dr. W.
