Teachers can be to their students only what they are. If they are not Christians, they cannot truly teach Christian principles. If they are not SDA Christians, they cannot teach the third angel's message. They can- not lead the youth into a meaning- ful relationship with the truths we hold so dear. The negative influ- ence of public school teaching can be so subtle as to the effect upon a student's relationship to his God that it might not be noticed until it is too late. It may, in fact, come from a popular teacher whose in- fluence may be impossible for a parent to counteract.

Elder Perry Pedersen of the General Conference is speaking to about one-third of the dele- gates on Sabbath afternoon. On the weekend of May 16 to 18, 225 Community Service workers gathered at Camp Berkshire for a convention of instruction, inspiration, and prayer. They came from many places—New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Bermuda. They came by plane, by bus, by train, and by car. They came to sharpen their abilities and praise God for victory He had given. There were approximately 100 delegates from the Northeastern Conference alone. Bermuda had about 40 delegates—all of them in uniform. The balance of the delegates were from the other three conferences. There were 10 federa- tion presidents present and at least 26 federation officers in attendance. Most of the others were Community Service Center directors or Dorcas leaders. The speakers and instructors were Elder Perry Pedersen, General Conference Community Service director; Mrs. Faye Campbell from Bradford, Tennessee, who has served in 10 major disasters; Mrs. Thomasine Wright from the Marion County Department of Public Welfare of Indianapolis, Indiana; Mrs. Juanita Kretschmar, director of the van program for the Greater New York Conference; Dr. Robert H.
