Lay- ton Fraser, Professor Emeritus of Presbyterian College, for the purpose of giving the story of redemption briefly and simply to peoples throughout the world in their native tongues in a form that they can enjoy and under stand.

Scenes that accompany the narrative, from eight Bible lands, are as authentic as scholarship can de termine, and are identified in the narrative as they appear on the screen. The public is cordially invited. LOCAL STUDENT IN FRATERNITY Seventeen men at Newberry College have pledged the three national fraternities following in March.
