EDITORIALS OPENING EXERCISES. The evening of the 22nd of Oct- ober will long be remembered by all who were present at the chapel and listened to the program given there. There were speeches by the Pro— fessors Oftedal, Sverdrup, Harbo and Evjen. Our president, Professor Ofte— dal presided. In his opening speech he called attention to the fact that our school was forty years old and that it has a history. And we all felt that the speaker was well acquainted with the history since he has been connected with the inititution for more than thirty fi years. Consequently he knows from experience, times of both joy and sorrow, he knows all the struggles Augsburg has passed thru by the wonderful guiding hand of God. And when he in a few words impressed upon the young leaders, who have stepped in to take up the work, the great responsibili— ties which they are taking upon themselves. it was not theories, but facts as he had actually experienced them. In introducing Professor George Sverdrup, who is now Vice—Presi- dent, he mentioned that it was not the same one but yet he was the same. Prof. Sverdrup mentioned that it had once been his intention to enter upon another vocation. but that it seemed to be the Lord‘s will and guidance that had brought him back to the school which he had al- ways had an opportunity to keep in touch with. He was aware of the great responsibilities that would be upon him, but God give strength and wisdom to all that we are to do. if we do it in his name. In closing he read from Rom. 5, 1—5. which he based his work and life on. Prof. Harbo also affirmed what had been said concerning the re- sponsibilities they had taken upon themselves and added that the rea- son why these were so great was because their work concerned the “hen we con- will salva‘icn of souls.

People generally get what they pay for, and usually value those articles most which cost them the highest price, and the greatest sacri- fice to obtain. There may be now and then a person who stumbles on success by accident, as a man may stumble on a gold mine, but these instances are exceptional, and seldom happen. Those who suc- ceed in any special department of human action are, as a rule. those who carefully plan for it, expect it, and are willing to pay the full price to atain it. Success demands to be bought with a price, it is stern and un- yielding in its requirements, in— flexible in its terms, and exacts the uttermost farthing. It costs application, diligence. self—sacri- fice and enthusiasm; the blandish- . ment of pleasure must be disre- garded. the allurements of fashion— able society avoided. the quiet and retirement of solitude courted. One of the greatest thinkers and scholars of his age said, “I am as much cut off from the great body of men as if I belonged to a band of pirates." The whirl of giddy pleasure. the sound of intoxicating music. the measures of a dance. and even the frequent occasions of social festivities, all these were de— nied him, and were dead to him. For him was the silent library, the intense concentration of continu- ous thought, the attrition with minds like his own, the conflict of ideas; and the world outside was to him as nothing. A political leader in the British Parliament, forty years ago, said, “During the week which followed my taking office, I did not close my eyes for anxiety. I never take exercise now. From my getting up until four o'clock, I am engaged in business of my office. At four I dine. go down to the House at five. and never stir until the House rises, which is always after mid— night." ‘ This was the price he paid for his greatness, and com- pared with such a life of intense strain, the toil of a laborer who works ten hours a day is a mere pastime. And yet this is but a fair example of the labor performed by our public men, which alas! often breaks down their constitution and shortens their (lays. The price of success is unremitting toil. When Edmund Burke was mak- ing one of his wonderful speeches in Parliament. one of his brothers was standing by and said, “I always thought that Ned had all the brains in our family,” but shortly after- wards remarked, “I see how it is, while we were sleeping and playing, he was working and studying.” It is said that one of the greatest pieces of acting was by the famous Edmund Kean in the character of Show less

WHERE SHALL I GO? Between boyhood and manhood, just at that age when the youth is waking up to realize the great pos- sibilities of life, when he thinks he ought to do something. when he feels he wants to be someone, and when he has learned so much that he knows in order to amount to anything he must go off to some. school; this question confronts him in a very serious way: \Nhere shall I go? \Vhich school shall I attend? And this question does not confront only him. it .is of equally great importance to his father and mother. From early childhood they thought they saw something great in this boy. In the public school It was generally admitted that he was the best scholar in the class. The minister said that he was the bright— est lad that he had confirmed for a long time, and that they ought to send him away to some institu— tion of learning. Father and mother have agreed with the son that he shall have the money he needs in order to attend some school. The only question is, where? In the county seat about twenty— five miles away there is a high school, which bears a great reputa— tion in the neighborhood. One or two of the neighbor boys went there a couple of years ago and be- came very famous, because of their ability as football players. Their names have appeared in the papers several times, and the whole neigh— borhood is proud of them. And the county superintendent of schools has talked to us about sending our boy to this high school, telling us about the many opportunities and the great possibilities for a young man entering this school. The boy himself thinks it would be a great thing to become a star foot ball player. to have his name shouted by the thousands; and after he has graduated from the high school to enter the state university and be— Show less

But one day, in 1896, he could not balance quickly enough to meet a sudden change in the wind and the machine, diving headlong, killed him. But evidently he was not the first man to meet with serious con— sequences while making similar at- tempts nor was any of his contem- poraries. Tradition assures that the first to sacrifice himself to the problem of flying was Wang Tu, a. Chinese mandarin of about 2,000 B. C., who, having constructed a pair of parallel and horizontal kites, seated himself on a chair fixed be— tween~them while forty-seven at- tendants, each with a candle, ig- nited forty—seven rockets placed beneath the apparatus. But the rocket under the chair exploded, burnt the mandarin and so angered the Emperor that he ordered a severe paddling for Wang. Scientists, however, took hold of the problem of aviation and soon proved facts that lifted the pos— sibilities far above short glides by an acrobat. The aeroplane has in our day been made a success and it will soon, to some extent, take the place of the steamship and the rail- road train. Of supreme interest to us as Americans, and the aeroplane at which the whole world marveled is the invention of- the brothers Or- ville and Wilbur Wright'of Dayton, Ohio. Though the Wright brothers had been interested in aerial navigation since early childhood, it was not until reading an account of the death of Lilienthal in his attempt to fly, that their enthusiasm was aroused, and they began the study which culminated in the invention contracted. This would keep the outer skin tight, for any loss of hydrogen would be made up with air in the inner balloon. To pro- vide against bursting an escape valve in the gas balloon was set to let gas out whenever the pressure of the successful flying-machine. Benefiting by their diligent study of the progress in flying—machines made by other aeronauts they, in 1900, began making experiments at Kill Devil Hill, near Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. During that year and the two following they follow— ed the school of Lilienthal, giving chief attention to soaring flight. Their reason for this was partly from impatience at the wasteful extravagance of mounting delicate and costly machinery on wings no one knew how to manage, and partly from the extraordinary charm and enthusiasm with which the apostles of soaring flight set forth the beauties of sailing through the air on fixed wings deriving the motive power from the wind itself.

At this time in England the coffee house was a favored as— sembling place of prominent men. Here they would exchange social news and thus foster the spirit of altruism. Again, the beginning of a newspaper, The Spectator, was one of the most potent factors in linking man to man. Of this epoch- making event, Burton writes: f’VVhen Addison and Steele began their genial conversation thrice a week with their fellow citizens, they little dreamed of the power they set a—going in he world; for here was the genesis of modern journalism.” Also the theatre helped to unite the common interests of man. In this way the novel—the power- .. ful instrument of altruism—came to express my relation to you; that we are all members of one body. After these considerations we may better be able to understand the fundamental principles of the novel. And, perhaps, the best definition that could be given of the novel would be in the words of Richard I‘ Burton: “It means a study of contemporary society with an im- plied sympathetic - interest with special reference to love as a motor force, simply because it is love - which binds together human beings in their social relations. ' L. H. A. ’10. THE PURPOSE OF A GYM- NASIUM. A gymnasium should be a place in which exercises might be taken, which would promote strength and agility. Upon entering our gymnasium one day and seeing only three or four young men there, I began to think that most of our students did not take advantage of their oppor- tunities. \Ve all know that unless our bodies receive the proper exer- cise it will not take long ere we are broken down in health. Especially is this true of people who spend most ,of their time indoors as students must do. It is also a self- evident fact, that with our bodies broken down, our minds will also suffer, and soon we will not be able to learn our lessons, as we used to, and then wonder what can be the cause. If we, as thinking young men would give this matter a little con- sideration, we would soon come to the conclusion that it is best to keep well while we are seeking to at- tain our aim in life, because, the conclusion here is easy to grasp, unless we are well we cannot attain our aim. We earnestly believe. that if students would avail themselves of their ,opportunities to take gym- nastic exercises, there would be less of ills among us. .The school Show less

After the summer vacation is over we find waiting for our peru— sual quite a number of exchanges, some of which came after our de- parture last spring, others which have been coming all summer. We have not attempted to plow thru everything in all of them, but we find that the spring numbers com- prise almost exclusively commence— ment items and are very neatly got— ten up, being at the same time a1- iriost without exception, a few pages larger, so as to give ample room for _ the doings at the close of the school year. They contain photographs of the graduating classes from the dif— ( ferent departments and ought to give the alumni and friends who . keep the papers of their respective schools a fair idea of what took , place at their institutions during . commencement week. There are not many of our ex— changes which continue coming all summer, but “Bibel-Vennen” of Ossian, Iowa, and Broderbaandet of this. city, have been making their appearance faithfully, all the time. They are not, however, college papers and don't pretend to be, but ‘contain chiefly devotional literature for ones edification and enlighten- AUGSBURG EKKO 19 ment on spiritual and religious topics. Two of our exchanges have in- serted a picture of the late Gov. Johnson, and one of them, College Breezes, has devoted four pages to eulogizing on the state's chief ex- ecutive. We think it quite proper and commendable that an institu- tion in his native city, and one in which he took special interest, should give expression to their re- gard for him, thru their college paper. There are also two good poems in their last issue. We speak of them thus, because we think poetry ought to be encouraged. Where are the poets here at Augsburg? Especially in the English depart- ment has poetry been a scarce ar— ticle of late. Are not the Muses able to whisper enough of an in- spiration into someones car who is poetically inclined also here, so that he might express some beauti- ful thoughts in verse? Let the alumni show their colors too, once in a while. If you have something send it in. a». a': It is only by thinking about great and good things that we come to love them, and it is only by loving them that we come to long for them, and it is only by longing for them that we are impelled to seek after them, and it is only by seek— ing after them that they become Show less

By a Prominent Citizen of Utah. Five men in the smoking room of an ove’rland Pullman began to make acquaintance. One, a busi- ness man from New York, told something of financial conditions, giving incidents from his business life. The second was a Califor- nian, and all Californians must boost their fruit and climate. The third was from Oregon, “the most wide-awake and prosperous section of the United States.” The Iowa farmer told of the grain and stock of the Middle West,, “enough to feed the entire country.” Then the fifth began, “I am from Utah—,” but he got no further. He was in- terrupted by a general laugh and questions: “How many wives did you leave at home?” “Utah is a good place for a bachelor to go ‘isn’t it?” The Utah man was a rather warm-tempered Gentle law- . yer, and broke into their bante ., orously. “Gentlemen; you each been boasting for your 0: _ . State. You have told us of yo_‘ fruit and crops andvtimber, we listened. But when I began‘ natural resources, you could think; of nothing but Mormons and poly; gamy. It isn’t right.
