o 0t LCQ LGVlThe most coveted place in the Petit Jean is the page of dedication.The class of '39, in selecting a man for this position, unhesitatinglychose one that occupies the hearts of the class and of everyonethat is acquainted with him-J. N. ARMSTRONG.We were the last class to enter under his presidency; he made alasting impression on us. We well remember the first chapel exerciseover which he presided. His lectures never became tiresome. His timewas our time, and all of us availed ourselves of his graciously-givenadvice and 'inspiration.This book purposes to portray a measure of the missionary workIn the- different fields. We believe him. to be the dean of missionaryefforts. No man has stirred more hearts in this direcc'ion than he.His unexcelled work in Christian education and the molding of numberlesscharacters is known the world over.He is to us godliness personified. He has drunk at the fount ofspiritual blessings and unselfishly passed the cup on to others. Thoughhis years are limited, he has a past that is a challenge to us all.For these reasons and many more, we dedicate the 1939 PetitJean to J. N. ARMSTRONG.
