At least not in the sense of being a specific boy in a specific church, attending a certain church school. No, in that sense, Skip is not real at all. Nor is he patterned after a real boy. But in another sense Skip is real—all too real. For there are Skips in perhaps all our church schools and SKIP academies. There are, I fear, Skips in every Adventist church round the world. There may even be a Skip By RUBY RATZLAFF living near you. God has a special plan for (Continued on page 8) Ruby Ratzlafl, who has been a teacher in India and Lebanon, is now in San Jose, California.

  • Chronology of Seventh-Day Adventist Education: 1872-1972
    CII818L8tl or SIYIITI·Ill IIYIITIST IIUCITIGI CENTURY OF ADVENTIST EDUCATION 1872 - 1972 ·,; Compiled by Walton J. Brown, Ph.D. Department of Education, General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists ·t. 6840 Eastern Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20012 i/ .I Foreword In anticipation of the education centennial in 1972 and the publication of a Seventh-day Adventist chronology of education, the General Conference Department of Education started to make inquiries of the world field for historical facts and statistics regarding the various facets of the church program in education. The information started to come in about a year ago. Whlle some of the responses were quite detalled, there were others that were rather general and indefinite. There were gaps and omissions and in several instances conflicting statements on certain events. In view of the limited time and the apparent cessation of incoming materials from the field, a small committee was named with Doctor Walton J. Brown as chairman. It was this committee's responsibility to execute the project in spite of the lack of substantiation of certain information. We believe that this is the first project of its kind in the denomination's history. It is hoped that when the various educators and administrators re­ view the data about their own organizations, they will notify the Department of Education concerning any corrections and additions. They should please include supporting evidence from as many sources as possible. It is hoped that within the next five to ten years a revised edition may replace this first one. It would contain not only necessary changes, but also would be brought up to date.

    TTHEHE LLATERATER EELMSHAVENLMSHAVEN YYEARSEARS 1905-19151905-1915 VVOLUMEOLUME 66 Ellen G. White Chapter 1 Loma Linda, "Hill Beautiful" To Ellen White the stopover on May 4, in 1905, in Los Angeles was all too short. She was with the party of workers traveling east to Washington, D.C., to attend the 1905 General Conference session. During the past several months her mind had been repeatedly called to the Redlands-Riverside-San Bernardino area, some sixty miles east of Los Angeles, as a place where the church should have a sanitarium--it would be the third such institution in southern California. "I hope," she wrote to Elder E. S. Ballenger on February 26, 1905, "when you see a suitable place in Redlands, which could be used as a sanitarium, offered for sale at a reasonable price, you will let us know about it. We shall need a sanitarium in Redlands. Unless we start an enterprise of this kind, others will."--Letter 83, 1905. Three days later she wrote: "In closing, I would ask you not to forget that sometime a sanitarium will be needed in Redlands."--Letter 89, 1905. Six weeks later she wrote to Elder J. A. Burden, manager of the Glendale Sanitarium: "Redlands and Riverside have been presented to me as places that should be worked.... Please consider the advisability of establishing a sanitarium in the vicinity of these towns."--Letter 115, 1905. Elder Burden reports that at about this time, in the course of a conversation at Elmshaven, Ellen White told the president of the Southern California Conference and one of his committee members that there was a "Sanitarium waiting near Riverside and Redlands," and she thought it was nearer Redlands.
