Matured men with families ask for even the most far-fetched opportuni ties which would permit them to pre pare for their life work. With long hours at night labor, classes during the day and a few hours of sleep, many of them eke out their four years of minsterial schooling. Twenty-three if the past year enrollment, two of which were women, expect to go to foreign mission fields. The annual number in the school of Christianity of Mercer has grown from twenty-three to 181 in the past six years. Dr. Rufus W. Weaver, president of the college, pointed out that a mnimum of $22,000 annually is needed as ministerial aid, but that de nomnational appropriations had not anticipated such an increase of theo logical students. Due to an oversight in making up the budgets ‘of the Baptist $75,000,- 000 drive, little relief could be expect ed from that source for ministerial education, Dr. W’eaver said.
