THE SECURITY PLAN OF CHURCH FINANCING
(owned ond operated by members of the church of Christ)
Has Helped to provide over 4 million dollars for our brethren in the
lost 12 months with which to build, thus exceeding ony one organiza-
tion in the notion.
Has saved congregations up to $5500.00 on a single bond program thus
permitting more money to be used for preaching the Gospel.
Has helped many congregations to sell their entire bond issue in just
five days. .'.
Guarantees its program to be the best available or there is no charge
for our services. •
Offers greater experience in Bond Programs than ony company serving
only the churches of Christ.
Provides an outstanding time payment program for individuals desir-
ing to purchose bonds on the installment plan.
Continues to offer the services of an outstanding representative until
program is completed, if so desired.

teenage publication that has
been named Tevn-Talk.

SK<»l I Korea—An interest-
ing turn of events in the field
of education is taking place
h< iv in Korea The new govern-
nu nt h.i- ordered 17 colleges to
cease operations upon the grad-
uation of those presently en •

nouncement for a country that
mangified education as much

land and a better government
for the Korean people.
Those who have studied the
situation carefully predict that
there vs ill be no harm done to
real educational advancement
It will make those concerned
more aware of the responsibil-
ities of education
On this matter of colleges
closing students of Christian ed-
ucation in the United States are
aware that there was a period
when many school^, sprang up
over the United States. Many
of these schools, as is well
known, grew for a few years in
the Southwest and in other
areas of the States. When the
war came and when the depres-
sion followed the war, many of
these schools closed their doors.
There are some interesting fig-
ures on how many Christian
colleges were started and then
failed. As we look back over
the whole history however, we
are not discouraged because
out of those that remain there
is today the representation of
great strength.
We rejoice then that over the
country there are colleges who
lived through these strenuous
times and they are the ones
that now receive great endow-
ments and great gifts which
will insure their continued ef-
forts and usefulness. The clos-
ing of our schools in the States
was thiough force of circum-
stances.
The closing of schools here
in Seoul is by government or-
der, but it is hoped that the end
results will be for good. There
should be a place for sincere
students and for sincere organ-
izers and founders of education-
al institutions.
It must be hard for people
who are not aware of the sit-
uation here in Korea to under-
stand these news items when
they appear without explana-
tion in the press in the United
States. It does not mean that
