We have had some staff changes of late—not so dramatic as the one that took place at a nearby office (the Oval) last year but important to us. Irma Peterson, my loyal, faithful, and very competent secretary, has retired and she will be returning to California. She left the Golden State nearly two decades ago to throw in her lot with CHRISTIANITY TODAY. Through the years she has occupied an office at the corner of our Washington Building suite, and it does seem as if we have lost a piece of our cornerstone. Miss Peterson takes with her our hearty affection and appreciation.
Stephen Wike, formerly our advertising manager, has been appointed business manager. We welcome him to this responsible new post. Melvin Sorenson has left the staff to join the Evangelical Foundation in Philadelphia. He did a great job for us, and we are sorry to see him go. Sterling Mehring is now our advertising representative, and Johanna Patterson is acting circulation manager.
