Our colleague for the past three years, Dr. Harold Lindsell, has accepted appointment as professor of Bible at Wheaton College. Here at his alma mater an attractive teaching-and-writing arrangement will enable him, among other things, to complete several long—postponed books. His new duties begin in September, and we extend sincere congratulations to him and his family.
In recent weeks CHRISTIANITY TODAY’S paid circulation bounded to new heights, at one point touching 159,397. We are hopeful of further gains as the remaining free list is phased out during the months ahead, and we appreciate the confidence of our many readers. Our switchover to computerized circulation regrettably involved an exasperating interruption of some subscriptions; but these difficulties are being quickly overcome, and readers will find their patience amply rewarded. Advertising linage is up also; the first four months of 1967 showed a gain of 10.6 per cent over the same period a year ago.
