Then there was food, even though crops failed. Perhaps a Chris tian steward could do something of the same for the Lord‘s work as well as his own needs, especially when he knows that different times are pretty sure to come in his locality, Auggies Write from Campus and Camp “My strongest impression of Augsburg is that it is a Christian school. It is not Christian only in name; but all of its activities, both in the classroom and outside, are centered about Christ. “When I came here this fall one of the ﬁrst things I noticed was the friendliness. One was made to feel at home immediately. I noticed the helpfulness and consideration for others the people have here. “Also, one feels the deep spiritual unity both among Augsburg‘s present and former students, wherever they may be. “All these things make me very happy that I am able to attend Augsburg this year." Ruth Pederson, freshman class, Beardsley, Minn. * "I hear from a number of Auggies that are in the service, and also from some that are doing their duty on the outside. It surely makes me wish that I were back at good old Augsburg. It has done much for me, I know, and for everyone who has attended there. “We have organized within our Regiment what is known as the Young Men's Christian Service League. \Ve meet once a week and discuss different problems which derive from the text that has been chosen for the topic. A lot of us are formerly of some church college in Minnesota and it is our prayer that they may continue to do their good work.” Cpl. Herman Olson (3941). Home: Sebeka, Minn. THE BULLETIN of WW and SW MINNEAPOLIS 4, MINNESOTA Rov. “But I’ve Moved” . . . A graduate in the service returned to Minneapolis this fall some time before Homecoming. Shortly after our celebration he called to say that he had re' ceived no news about it. \Ve are sorry about this and similar incidents. Homecoming stories and pictures were carried by Minneapolis papers. Likewise there were several ra- dio programs, and letters were sent to all gradutes, Twin City residents, whose addresses we have. Then. too, the last Bulletin carried the Homecoming an' nouncement. But in spite of all that was done several no doubt did not get the information. Here are im' portant things that you as a Bulletin reader can do to help make these situations occur as infrequently as possible: 1. Notify your postman when you change your address. It is absolutely impossible for us to follow the movements of several thousand people unless we are informed. If you leave your forwarding address with your mailman when you move, we will get it eventually in most cases. (Not all. Some of the smaller post ofﬁces especially do not seem to obey the order on the address label of the Bulletin concerning undeliverable mail.) 2. If possible, drop us a post card when you move. That is the best way. Then you will be sure to get all the mail from us on time. 3. If you know of a graduate or former student not receiving the Bulletin, send us his name and address. Dr. 0. Myking Mchus, ’16, resigned as Preo- ident of Winona State Teachers College on June 30, 1943, to accept a position as a Voca- tional Rehabilitation Ofﬁcer with the Veterans Administration at Excelsior Springs, He will have charge of the vocational training of disabled veterans who will be given up to four years of training in order that they may prepare for civilian life.

The truth that giving to the work of the Christian Church is an INVESTMENT has been dawning on me rather slowly. In the light of this truth I am no longer as prone to look at the giving of time or money as so much “char- ity,” but as the wisest and safest investment pos- sible anywhere. I tend to forget the “My-fair- share” or “My-quota” theory of giving in favor of the Scriptural “As God has prospered” plan. I cannot feel sorry for those who invest much in heavenly treasures, but must rather admire them and by the grace of God try to imitate them. Through, the Augsburg Foundation Fellow- ship I ﬁrmly believe we have an unusual oppor- tunity for making regular investments in values that shall abide forever. Think of the soul's saved for time and eternity through those whom God has blessed and is blessing at Augsburg! November 2, 1943. Pastor Fﬁtjof Monseth. "Round About the Foundation" Knut Hoversten, '30, Science teacher at Medicine Lake, Mont, signed up for the A. F. F He‘s the "same old Knut," as full of fun—and ideas. as ever. "In teaching science," he says, “I teach honesty too. I show them that a person can't be a real scientist unless he is honest. Calculation, measurements, etc., have to be exact." That is good teaching, isn‘t it? After fine fellowship in one farm home the father handed me a grain check, endorsed to Augsburg, the amount, $116.58. He said. “My wife and I talked over the matter of giving this Fall, and how God had blessed us, and we've made up our minds what to do for each cause." Here was real stewardship, and l commended them for it. But one of the best things about it, and I couldn‘t help mentioning it. was that the young people in that home saw and heard what was happening. The parents gave them an example that they will perhaps never forget. To my mind this is one phase of the Christian life that we as Christian parents have not exempliﬁed too well for our children. All honor to those who have done so, and who do. Present membership of the A. F. F. is 350, with yearly pledges of about $4,300. Goal for 194344 is 1,000 members. Will you be one of the thousand? Several anchor points for the Foundation have been established in the Westby District of the L. F. C. during October. Sixty‘four new members have been added in the parishes there. This district has been blessed with a tremendous harvest and beautiful weather in which to gather it. The youngest member of the A. F. F. so far is Helen E. A. Anderson, aged 2, of Minneapolis. We are not sure as to who is the oldest. . . . Two former students of Augsburg in the Westby District, new teaching, are $5 per month members. N. C. A. "I Don't Like to Pledge" Frequently people will give the above response, in answer to the invitation to join the Foundation Fel- lowship. In most cases they have a good reason. They are not like some politicians and ubigwigs" in international diplomacy. They do not want to prom' ise something which they cannot later fulfill. And is it not true that certain workers, especially the farmer, does not know just how much he will have in any given year? We are to give as we are blessed, but God has not guaranteed a regular income to anyone. Two considerations help to clear up the problem. _ First, the A. F. F. membership card does not use the word "pledge." It states . . . “I purpose to pay." This is in line with Biblical Stewardship. If God does not supply we cannot offer. Secondly, member ship rates are as low as 25 cents per month ($3 per year). Very few of us come to the point where we can truthfully say that we do not have that much to give to Augsburg. And perhaps most people too in

THE NOVEMBER 1943 AUGSBUBG BULLETIN Thanksgiving By nature we are not thankful. Gratitude is not a virtue with which we are born. It is not a gift but a growth. It is not an inheritance but a product. Be, ing tempted to take things for granted, taking God's gifts as matters of course, we are in danger of losing one of the virtues that tends to sweeten the lives of ourselves and others. We are much like the boy whose teacher suggested things for which they should be grateful on Thanksgiving Day, such as home, friends, health, Sunday School, to which the boy replied, “Oh, those don't count. They are just common things that everyone has." Common things of life are often taken for granted and enjoyed without recognizing that to some less fortunate such things are almost unknown. To give thanks ennobles and blesses our own soul. Gratitude opens the mind and heart for still richer and greater gifts. Ingratitude closes the heart and makes it impossible for God to bestow rich gifts upon us. “The hungry he hath filled with good things. and the rich 5 he hath sent empty away" (Luke 1:53). g” ’ Only as we gratefully receive and enjoy . the blessings given can the Lord con- tinue to shower upon us His good things in the future. Notes of Progress Thumb-nail Report from the President’s Office The Centennial Ingathering of the Lutheran Free Church, celebrating one hundred years of church work among NorwegianvAmerican Lutherans, has now been almost completed. As a result, the indebt‘ edness of Augsburg, which was between $75,000 and $80,000 a year ago, has been practically wiped out. Augsburg is deeply grateful to all the thousands who helped make this possible. The forward movement in the A. F. F.. announced in the last Bulletin, has gotten off to a good start. Rev. Anderson is to be heartily congratulated. He reports a strong, fine response among the congrega' I ’1‘. if ah 0;: ;:~ 6 hunks Gratitude tends to bless others. Sincere grateful' ness expressed on our part will have its reﬂex in the hearts and lives of those about us. Furthermore, it will inspire us to serve others with gladness. It is the grateful heart that happily serves. A thankful appreciation of spiritual and temporal blessings which we ourselves enjoy will awaken in us a sincere desire to share these with others. It is good to give thanks to God, for thereby our souls are drawn closer to Him who is the giver of every good and perfect gift. We know how true the same thing is temporally. Being grater ful for a gift received will cause our hearts to be attached to the giver. And unless the Lord succeeds by His gifts to attach our hearts more ﬁrmly to Him, He has failed in his purpose of giving. He alone is worthy of our heart‘s affection and devotion. His manifold gifts to us are intended to woo us to love and serve Him with gladness. Surely “It is a good thing to give thanks unto Jehovah, and to A. W. K.

F.=Augsburg Founr dation Fellowship =Augsburg Faces Forward, The total enrolment to date this year is 208, 189 in the College (81 men and 108 women) and 19 in the Seminary—a sharp decrease, but not as great as at times we feared. The proportion of men students is still fairly good. partly due to the fact that we have a rather large number taking pre'seminary work. The students have more money now. Employment. both summer and winter, is much easier to get, and wages are often two or three times what they were a few years ago. But the parallel rising costs greatly complicate the general problems of running a school and balancing budgets.

It almost seems that it has taken the clouds and darkness of war to bring out in sharp con' trast the rich values embodied in the Christian Col; lege. I T Dreams are being dreamed these days of a new and much-needed building at Augsburg. The matter was discussed at a special meeting of the Corporation held on October 19.

Anderson Expansion plans for the Augsburg Foundation Fell lowship for the coming year call for emphasis on three important phases, according to the announcc' merit of President J.

The second aim is a " 'living endowment.‘ Augsburg's present Endowment Fund is tied up in properties which for the present are not yielding any regular income. To achieve additional accreditation we must be able to show that our school has a workable plan of endowment in active operation. What greater re ,sources, therefore, can an institution show than the organized love, loyalty, and ﬁnancial backing of its alumni and friends, such as we hope to achieve under the A. F. F.? That such a plan is both workable for the beneﬁt of the institution as well as acceptable to the accrediting agencies is being demonstrated in the experience of several. signiﬁcant universities and col' leges throughout our land at the present time." The third phase is the . . . "spiritual endowment. Augsburg needs and desires also the consistent fer' vent prayers of its many Christian supporters in order that its program 'might go forward." Norman C. Anderson, ‘30, who has been Director of Student Personnel at Augsburg during the past four years, will devote his time during the next year to an active plan of expansion of the A. F. F., begin‘ ning September ﬁrst. Membership and contributions of the Augsburg Foundation Fellowship continues to increase. In May the number was about 200. By August it had reached 267.

SEPTEMBER 1943 AUGSBUBG BULLETIN Augsburg in '42-'43 Thc trans1tion from June to September, 1943, \Vlll mark many changes in the appearance of things on the Augsburg campus. A very large number of last year‘s men students have been inducted into the armed forces in the course of the summer. Both for this reason and because of a smaller incoming Fresh' man class the enrollment will no doubt be consider ably reduced. The faculty too will be smaller. Sev- eral of the teachers have recently entered the Service, most recently Mr. Myrvik and Mr. Kildahl. Several others have temporarily entered other forms of es' sential employment. But Augsburg will nevertheless be carrying on, in the same spirit as formerly and with the same aim, now adjusted to meet the specific needs of this crisis hour. + For the coming year there is only one new full'time teacher. Mr. Erling Urdahl, formerly Principal of the Cannon Falls, Minnesota, High School, will be Acting Professor of Biology. Mr. Urdahl was gradu' ated from Concordia College in 1930 and his graduate work was done at the University of Minnesota. Miss Alma Jensen, a graduate of St. Olaf and the Univer’ sity of Minnesota, who did substitute teaching at Augsburg two years ago, will teach Sociology. Mr. Erling Tungseth will be in charge of the physical education program, with Miss Oster teaching the theory courses and directing the women‘s program. In view of the greatly reduced number of students. the athletic schedule will be developed in the light of the men available. Like most of ﬁhe other small col' leges we are making no advance announcements as to just what we shall be able to do. As is well'known by this time, Memorial Hall with all its facilities has been placed at the disposal of the Army for the duration and is now occupied by 270 uniformed students enrolled at the University of Minnesota. The dining room has been turned into a studyvhall, and “the midnight oil" is consumed by these hard'working young army men every night. During the day they study, attend classes, eat, and drill at the University. Their presence at Augsburg will add a touch of the military to the campus the coming year, and be a continual reminder that Augsr burg too is doing its part in the war—eﬁort, not only by giving hundreds of its sons and daughters but also through the use of its facilities. The regular program of the school will continue as heretofore, however. Augsburg Grads Get High Pests Three Augsburg graduates have been appointh to important pUSIIlUHS recently. Miss Margaret Hulburt, ‘35, has accepted the position as Clinical Instructor in Surgery and Medicine, Yale University School of Nursing at New Haven. Both Minnesota and North Dakota have Augsburg graduates as directors in their educational system as a result of recent appointments. William Jacobsen, ‘26, is the new Director of Sec' ondary (high school) Education for North Dakota. Mr. Jacobscn did his graduate work at the University of North Dakota. Elmer Weltzin, ‘28, has been chosen for a similar position in the Minnesota Department of Education. His work also includes supervision of the elementary schools. Mr. Weltzin did his graduate work at the University of Minnesota and the University of Iowa. He last served as Superintendent of Schools at War— ren, Minnesota. With only such modiﬁcations as the special needs of the time call for. + A new kitchen and dining hall have been set up at Sivertsen Hall able to accommodate about 150 stu' dents. Thus at this time of special crisis Dr. Sivert' sen‘s wonderful gift to Augsburg of a few years ago Will serve in a double capacity to meet the needs of the school. Old Main has been renovated once more this sum' mer, to serve the men students who had to vacate Memorial Hall. All of us are looking forward to the time when this gaunt old landmark at 2lst Ave. and 7th St. will yield its place to a new ediﬁce suited to Augsburg‘s present and future needs. But for the time being the old “veteran of many wars" is being again called into special service and with its rercalked windows and newly painted halls will no doubt serve well yet once more. The new school year—Augsburg's seventy'ﬁfth— opens on September 22. Homecoming days are Octor ber 284”. Plans are already under way for the Dia' mond Jubilee celebration at Homecoming. 1944.) Whether one or the other occasion brings them to Augsburg in body, all Augsburg's sons and daughters are invited to follow Alma Mater also through this another adventurous year. We are conﬁdent that the blessing of the Lord will be upon us as it has ever been in days gone by. . B. C.

THE MAY 1943 AUGSBUBG BULLETIN I Believe in Christian Education I believe in Christian Education because it endeavors to present and inculcate the whole truth concern' ing the world and man without omitting the cen' tral and basic facts which give to life its deepest meaning and significance. I believe in Christian Education because it injects into the American intellectual world the iron atoms of faith in values that are absolute and principles that are permanently validi i— believe in Christian Education because it challenges student and teacher to explore all the realms of knowledge with eagerness and without fear, in the conviction that all truth is of God and that each fuller revelation of its depths is a more complete unveiling of His inﬁnite riches and power. I- believe in Christian Education because it sends into the world each year a host of young men and women of character and high ideals to be the salt of the earth, each in his particular community and calling. I—r believe in Christian Education because it upholds a view of Home and Church and State which helps to build the temple of human society securely upon God and righteousness and a profound regard for the dignity of every human soul. i— believe in Christian Education because it provides an adequate and tested basis for the preservation of the democratic principles which are the very lifeblood of America, land of freedom and oppor’ tunity, and which have been the chief source of her strength and growth through the nearly two hundred years of her history. I believe in Christian Education because it aﬂords a favorable setting for questing youth to ﬁnd in Jesus Christ the Way and the Truth and the Life, and to enter into the transforming experience of offering their all upon the altar of His service. u—1 believe in Christian Education because it presents to impressionable minds the challenge of human suffering and human need, and boldly summons young men and women to take up the cross of ser vice on behalf of their brethren of every people, race, and condition. 1-: believe in Christian Education because its institu' tions have always been the major source of supply in the enlistment and training of the pastors, misv sionaries. and lay leadership of the Church. I believe in Christian Education because it gives to the members of the Church an opportunity through regular gifts toward its support to partiCipate in the fascuiating adventure of promoting one of the most essential and formative influences of the Chris- tian world. I believe in Christian Education because of the peren' nial value of participation in the Simple and unsul' lied pleasures of Christian college life: the stimulat' ing fun of social parties, the stirring rivalry of athletics, the daily fellowship of dining hall and dormitory, the keen and friendly clashing of alert minds, I believe in Christian Education because it is a crea- tive and enriching experience to teach and to study in an institution where congenial spirits are welded together in a deep unity of purpose for the .iccom' plishment of a common task. I believe in Christian Education because it puts first things ﬁrst: God above gold, truth above convenr ience, principle above policy, spirit above matter, Eternity above Time. I believe in Christian Education because the Lord and Master of Men bade His followers go and teach all nations and because He Himself laid down His life as a Teacher of the Truth that makes men free. Bernhard Christensen. + Better Yet In the last Bulletin we lauded the efforts of a certain friend of Augsburg who is doing real service in getting young people to attend Augsburg. Not to disparage at all her efforts, we still must say that Pastor O. Braseth of Amery, Wisconsin, has gone the lady one better by bringing a car load of young people to the campus last week to interest them in our school. _ This was an especially commendable effort. It is also one of the most effeCtive methods of accomplishing the purpose sought. Friends of Augsburg—if you live not too far off, get a group of young people together and bring them in. You'll render Augsburg a real service and help some young people in making one of the great decisions of their lives—where to go to college.

Special plans are also in the making to bring into the Foundation Fellowship those loyal men and women who have been regular contributors to Augsburg for many years Judging by the letters that come from pastors and many lay people who love Augsburg, and by the wholesome attitude shown by the present student body. the appreciation of the type of Christian edu' cation which Augsburg gives is steadily growing. This is both an encouragement and a challenge to the people who work at Augsburg. It means that there is an increasing appreciation of the work that has been done and the sacriﬁces that were made by the generation which is not with us any more. and it means also that the coming day, when wars have ceased and young people are permitted again to make their own plans. must ﬁnd Augsburg ready to serve those who desire to receive a Christian education, May they be received in the characteristic Augsburg spirit and with the determination to help them to become elﬁcient and humble Christian servants both to the Church and the State. As members of the Augsburg Foundation Fellowship we have a golden opportunity to show our concern for these young people and to help them to ﬁnd their stations for service in life.

JANUARY 1943 AUGSBUBG BULLETIN Ensign Rowberg Escapes Sinking Ruﬂledge Augsburg College men in the service are a modest lot. That is, if Ensign Phillip Rowberg, '41, of Hanley Falls, Minn., is typical of the,dozens and dozens, both students and graduates, who have found their way into Uncle Sam’s forces. His ship was torpedoed and he had to fumble his way through the darkness to the upper deck, so that there he could jump into the Atlantic and start swim- . ming the several miles of water that separated him from the shores of Morocco. (He did ﬁnd a boat after leaving a possible place on a raft to a fellow who couldn’t swim.) Then he spent some time with the army, ﬁghting for a foothold on the "hottest" point of the whole in- vasion coast—undergoing straﬁng by enemy airmen. But he summed it all up as he left our Personnel Office (to which I had asked him so that I could do a little "pumping”) by saying, in response to an at- tempted expression of gratitude on my part for what he and the others are doing, “Oh, I haven’t done much. I don’t think that any one of us feels as though he's done a great deal." The next day he left to get his assignment to an- other ship—to undergo further dangers in situations where life depends on quick decisions, and to emerge —we hope and pray—as heroically and as modestly as before. a young citizen who laid aside teaching duties at Belview, Minn, to answer his country's call. But here are other stirring facts this clean-looking, oﬂicer-like young man told me as he sat talking, as though it were just routine. this business of dodging subs, and swimming for your life through the ocean waves. , His ship was the USS. Ruttledge. They got through all right—convoying their part of the army safely to the shores of Morocco. It was after they had ﬁnished that task that a prowling sub sank the Ruttledge, and another ship. Two torpedo hits ﬁnished Rowberg's ship. Each one knocked him 03 his feet. How big were those torpedoes? Well, nobody knows. The big- gest Rowberg has seen are 21 feet long. One like that must carry a lot of explosives. Strange things happen when a ship is going down. A friend remembered a pocket book pretty Well ﬁlled, left in his room. He dashed back to get it, but then, when ready to jump over the side—took oi! his trou- sers—and threw them aside, with the money. It went down with the ship. Film Gets Augsburg National Publicity More publicity for Augsburg has come as a result of the making of Alumni-sponsored ﬁlm “Education for Freedom" last spring. _ Ormal Sprungman of Minneapolis who made the ﬁlm has an article in the February issue of “Popular Photography” in which he describes how Auggies co- operated with him to produce the pictures. Accom— panying the article are several pictures from the ﬁlm. Mr. Sprungman also showed the pictures before the Minneapolis Cine Club, an organization of about 75 people in the Twin City area who are interested in this kind of work. How about morale? “It’s fine," was the reply. “The boys feel that there's a job to be done—and somebody has to do it. So they go ahead. They want to get it over with as can as possible." “On the battleﬁeld I saw a doctor doing wonderful things for a wounded man—using plasma. The man looked about 'gone’——but the doctor worked on him, and he was gradually revived. Every once in a while planes would come over, machinegunning everybody. Then we’d duck, and as soon as they were gone the ‘doc' would get busy. This was repeated again and again. About a week later I saw that man who was so nearly dead. and he was well on the road to re- covery." Then I asked Phillip about the religious factor—do the boys become more in earnest about religion. It was his opinion that they do. “The night before we got to our destination at Morocco, we had a Com- munion service. It was very well attended.” It was true that on board ship they had no chaplain for a period of about two months. Then they got a Catholic Chaplain. While they were convoying sol- diers, a Protestant, a very likeable man, served them. too. One chaplain, an Episcopalian, had won their hearts while they were training in New York. Said Rowberg, “Everybody thought he was a real man, the kind who understands you and wants to help." And then he left my office this modest young En- sign—a person of whom any college, and any com- munity, can well be proud. Not given to much talk, modest, disciplined—feeling that “there's a job to be done that has to be done, so let's get it over with as soon as possib ." If we “stay-at-homes," all of us, were imbued with that spirit and that detundnation, could we do any— (Continued on page 4)

Like other Liberal Arts colleges and theological seminaries, we shall face great obstacles in seeking to continue our work. But once again. as in former times of crisis, the friends of Augsburg are demon- strating the dependable quality of their loyalty, and the School will carry on, despite any difficulties to be faced. The student body will necessarily be curtailed for the time being. but we shall go forward in one spirit, even though for the time being some are sep- arated from one another in body. Times of trial and emergency bind us closer than ever to the institutions that have meant much to us. better after letter from students and faculty members away in Service bear witness to how strong is their love to their School, and how deeply their spiritual roots are planted here. The struggle for freedom has always been close to the heart of Augsburg. Today that struggle has be- come worldwide, and Augsburg's sons and daughters gladly do their part wherever they are called. The very center of Augsburg’s contribution to this effort will always be the spreading of the Christian Gos- pel, by which alone true freedom can be furthered among men. Let every Augsburg man and woman strive to be a true witness and champion of that freedom—in peace and in war, on the campus or at some other post of dutyi This is Alma Mater’s challenge to us today. —Bernhard Christensen With Auggies in Many Places A West Coast friend of Augsburg, member of a Lutheran Free Church Congregation, sent through his pastor, a gift of ﬁve dollars to the Personnel Office. The gift was to go to the youngest student from an L.F.C. congregation at Augsburg. LeRoy Gallop of Barronett, Wisconsin, a freshman, got the five dollars. Luther Mona, ’31, star forward on Augsburg basket- ball teams of his college days, has a new position at Minneapolis South High School. He is now the basket- ball coach, and brought his boys through to an upset victory over a favored Edison High team in the first game. Hosea Osterhus, ’38, has taken a year's leave of ab- sence from his duties at South High to work in a de- fense plant. The oldest graduate to contribute to the recent Alumni Appeal was Mr. Hallvard Askeland, '83, living It 6305 Oak Lawn Avenue, Minneapolis. The oldest graduate, member of the A.F.F., is Rev. J. Mortensen who was graduated from the Seminary in 1891. Glendon Dueland, ’29, has resumed teaching. She is located at Eliendale, Minnesota. Herbert Hanson, '26, entered Luther Seminary of St. Paul last fall. He has held important positions with several business ﬁrms since his graduation. "I've Got a New Student for You For Next Semester" PERSONNEL OFFICE AUGSBURG COLLEGE Minneapolis. Minnesota January 14, 1943 Dear friend of Augsburg: A lady walked into the Personnel Office one day this fall. After concluding a short conversation rele- vant to some problem she said, “Well, I think I’ve got a student for you for next semester. Anyway, he‘s planning on coming!" Who was the person? Some Lutheran Free Church Pastor? Or perhaps a graduate, teacher, or superin- tendent in a strategic position to inﬂuence young peo— ple to go to Augsburg? No! My caller was none of these—not even a mem- ber of an L.F.C. congregation. She is a farmer’s wife, a member of another Lutheran Church, too, but a real “booster” for Augsburg. This year she has two of her sons at our school. And she is busy “lining up” new prospects. C $ 0 t Many people are concerned about the future of the liberal arts colleges in these days. Augsburg's friends, her graduates and former students, have this concern in large measure for our school. They do something, too, to meet the situation. Well, let us face the facts. We know that the ordinary efforts of the past will not be sufficienf to meet the crisis of this year in the mat- ter of maintaining the enrollment, and thus balancing the budget. It will not be easy to ﬁnd boys to attend college next year. What then?-—The only way for us to “come out on top" is to do more than we have ever done before in the ﬁeld of student solicitation, especially among the girls. Will somebody be coming to Augsburg next semes- ter—or next fall—because you “got a student for us"? Friends of Augsburg, let us meet the challenge. Will you select one, or two, or a half dozen prospects and then spend time and energy enough to convince them that they ought to go to Augsburg? And will you let us know who they are, too, so that we can help along with informative literature? If we all work together, hard, we can meet the challenge of this hour. And we can win. But let us get busy at once. Yours for a continuing Augsburg—Now and after the war. Sincerely, Norman C. Anderson A PRESIDENT SAID 11' “Let your education be Christian. To educate a man in mind and not in morals is to educate a menace to society.” -—1'hoodero Renault

Post card items are welcome if you do not have time for longer contributions Send them to: The Augsburg Bulletin at our school.—Ed. The Foundation Fellowship Recently I met an old devoted friend of Augsburg. She lives about two hundred miles from Minneapolis, and is now in her eighty-third or eighty—fourth year. In the brief conversation we had together she re- vealed a quite thorough knowledge of our school. When she told me that she had never seen Augsburg, I became inquisitive to know how it had happened that the school had become endeared to her. Her an- swer was brief but convincing: "I have tried to read our Church papers regularly, and they bring news about Augsburg. The preachers I have listened to all my life have been Augsburg men. And we have had the pleasure in our home occasionally to entertain Augsburg professors." In these simple, but eﬂective ways, she had become a loyal friend of Augsburg. To my surprise she stated that she had remembered Augsburg with a gift in money every year since the school was moved from Marshall, Wis., to Minne- apolis in 1872. There was something solid about the plain, old lady that made her fascinating. She had not seen Augs- burg, and, of course, had not had opportunity to be a student there. But through reading the Church pa- pers, listening to sermons, and conversing with the teachers a spiritual blessing had come to her that helped her never to forget our school. The spirit of Augsburg had found a ready response in her heart. If we only knew their names, there are many others like her. And these devoted friends who have regu— larly remembered Augsburg with their prayers and their gifts have made it possible for Augsburg to do a consistent work in the ﬁeld of training Christian missionaries, preachers and teachers for three quar- tu‘s of a century. A little over a year ago we began to build the Augs- burg Foundation Fellowship. This plan is meant to be a continuation and enlargement of the original group called the “Augsburg Friends.” And we have made some progress. To date two hundred, lacking three, are enrolled as members. These members are remem- bering Augsburg with monthly gifts that range trom ten dollars down to twenty-ﬁve cents. As soon as the Centennial Endeavor in our church is completed a more consistent effort will be made to enlarge this membership. Former students and graduates, and present students who “love the school where you belong," come and join us in this Fellowship. Now more than ever, because of the peculiar dim- culties that the present war has brought upon the church schools by taking the students for services in the armed forces, Augsburg needs a large number of devoted friends. And now is the time when we must set our faces toward the future and plan to have our share in the Christian reconstruction of the post-war world. Up from the ruins of bomb—torn nations will come a cry to the Christian Church, "Come over and help us. Be a good Samaritan unto us! Lead us to the Inn that has healing for our bodies and souls!" The church that supports and protects her Christian schools now will be the church that can most effec- tively respond to this call when the day comes. —Olaf Rogue. A.F.F. Members.
