GRADUATE STUDENTS BRING ADMIS SION LETTER OR COURSE OF STUDY TO REGISTRATION. In order to avoid difficulty in registra tion each graduate student who has an of ficially appoved course of study is re minded that he must bring it to the reg istration. Each graduate student who does not yet have an approved course of study must bring his letter of admission to the Graduate School which outlines the work he proposes to undertake and any back ground or prerequisite work which is re quired of him. Each member of the Graduate Faculty who is signing up a graduate student for one of their courses should call for and study these papers. This will help to make sure that the student is properly guided in taking courses in their most logical se quence. It will frequently avoid the troub le which arises when a student fails to take a course this semester which may not be offered again within the next semester or so, thus completely disrupting his program and sequence of training. It is also pointed out that a study of such material will materially assist the faculty member in determining whether or not a student has the necessary background and prerequisite training for successfully taking a particular graduate course he re quests. The Graduate School asks the coopera tion of both graduate and faculty mem bers in passing this request on to other faculty members and graduate students so that they may come to the registration desk properly prepared.

There are four sound reasons why every person should attend services regularly and sup port the Church. They are: (1) For his own sake. (2) For his children's sake. (3) For the sake of his community and nation. (4) For the sake of the Church itself, which needs his moral and ma- -terial support. Plan to go to church regularly and read your Dible daily.
