[ The following words from Dean Hooper are inside a box. ] [ Heading 4a ] Throughout the year the London Bible Institute has been privileged to hear many speakers who have presented stirring and challenging facts connected with their various fields. Each of these addresses has presented an appeal and aroused deep interest and thoughtful consideration in the hearts of our students and we have been led to hold a Missionary Rally at this time with the hope that the impressions made may ripen into convictions and take the form of a definite call to the regions beyond. It would seem to us that such a conference would be the culmination of the many calls made to the lives of our students for dedication of themselves to God for service abroad. We have ever sought to give to Missions the place and the prominence that are indicated in the New Testament. That was a place of supreme importance; an imperative order compacted in one dynamic word, "GO". We are eager that as far as possible all the friends of the Institute should share in the inspiration and enjoyment of this Missionary Rally. Dr. E.
