Students rooming outside but who take their meals in the Boarding Club may also be admitted as members. The fee is decided upon from year to year; it is usually 50c for the first semester and 75c for the second. The members are entitled to free medical attendance, but no student may receive aid ex- ceeding $15 in any one school year. The Students’ Missionary Society was organized in 1885. It has awakened among the students a remarkable interest both in Home and Foreign Missions. The first missionary sent to heathen lands by Norwegian Luther- ans in America was a charter member of this society. The programs, which are given once a month, consist of reports by students and lectures by prominent mission- aries, pastors and other mission workers. The past three years the society has raised neat sums for a missionary library. The Prohibition League. This society seeks by lec- tures and discussions to educate students in practical tem- perance work. It has been very successful in its efforts to enlist students in the movement for temperance re- form, and several of its members have rendered good service in this cause thru the Northwest. THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION. For the purpose of fostering and regulating athletics in general, the students have formed an association called The Augsburg Athletic Association. Any bona fide student may become a member of the Association by paying the required fee of twenty-five cents each semes- ter. The officers of the Association are ex-officio an Show less

Catechetics as a branch of Practical Theology attempts to teach the proper methods of instructing the young in the church, especially, in the Christian religion. It looks upon the educational work entrusted to every congrega- tion as fundamentally necessary and requiring careful training of teachers and patiEnt and systematic execution. A good pastor should not only himself be able “to feed the lambs” but should also lmow how to teach others the same art. The course involves, first, a survey of the his- tory of Christian education; secondly, a description of the theories and methods of such education as they prevail in the church today; thirdly, the practical application of principles and methods to our educational needs, so that the material of instruction may be suited as much as possible to the growing heart and mind of the child. This again involves a knowledge of the systematic use of the Bible for instruction as well as of the other books used in catechetical instruction. 3. C harsh Polity. This course discusses the biblical theory of the congre- gation as the communion of saints; the offices, organiza- tion, and government of the congregation in apostolic times; the growth of the idea of the church as a legal organization ending in Catholicism; the ideas of the re- formers as to church government, especially that of Lu- ther; the modern movement from the state churches, and the idea of a free church according to apostolic usages, unique in character and unhampered by worldly and ra- tionalistic methods of organization and government. 4.

It is the realization of this connection which forms the necessary grounds for the Christian faith in eternal salvation and the “restoration of all things.” It therefore naturally leads up to and culminates in the study of “the last things.” As the best material for this part of the study of the New Testament we consider the Gospel according to St, John. CHURCH HISTORY. PROFESSORS HELLAND and URSETH. The founders and fathers of Augsburg Seminary have always had an open eye to the great importance of his— torical study . History reveals to us God’s dealings with man, man’s erring ways and the woful consequences thereof, and the necessity of again turning unto the Lord for true happiness and eternal salvation. History also contains numberless guide-posts for those who have eyes to see with and who do not wilfully close them. It is natural for all things in this world to decay and to de- teriorate, to fall behind and to forget. Even the church of Christ is not immune in this respect. There is also always a readiness to imagine that when mistakes be- come sufficiently old and when mis—steps are made by a sufficiently large number of men, they are no longer mis— takes or mis—steps. On the other hand it is the duty and the object of all truly reformatory forces within the church to unceasingly point back to the days of the first love and to turn men away from the false notion that the time—honored mis— Show less

Other students may be admitted by pass- ing a prescribed examination. Advanced standings in any subject will be granted to students who present satisfactory credentials from other schools showing that they have pursued the subject to the same extent that is done in the Seminary. All applications for admission to the Theological de< partinth are made to the Board of Directors and the Theological faculty. All candidates for admission to this department must furnish evidence of moral charac‘ ter and Christian experience. II. Examinations. I. Regular.

All students who have good ear and some know- ledge of musical notation may become members. The Augsburg Band was organized in 1904 and now consists of 21 members. During the first year of its existence it made fine progress and awakened an inter- est in instrumental music which is still increasing. Nearly all the members remained to the end of the term and thus kept the organization intact. Boys who play band instru- ments, brass or reed, and who come to Augsburg next year, will stand a good chance to become members and thus add also to their musical education. GENERAL SOCIETIES. The Augsburg Medical Aid Society, organized in 1879, is an organization for the mutual aid of members in case of sickness. All students who room at the Seminary are members of the society. Students rooming outside but who take their meals in the Boarding Club may also be admitted as members. The fee is decided upon from year to year; it is usually 50c for the first semester and 75c for the second.

The number of theological professors was in time reduced {mm iour to two and the number of college professors gradually increased. H. Bug‘ge was in 1882 aopointed to a chair in the college. The result was satisfactory. In 1885 two more college pro- fessors were appointed; namely, Reverend I. H. Blegen and Reverend Theo. S. Reimestad. Then followed the appointments of W’. Mi Pettersen in I886, and A. M. Hove in 188,7. I. L. Nydahl succeeded the late professor J. ,H. Bugge in 189.1: and Reverend H. N. Heudrielesou succeeded Professor Theo. S. Reimestad in Igflb. Pro- fessor A. Hove resigned in September, 190:, and in I904 S- O; Severson was elected to succeed him. In r898 Reverend H. A. Urset‘h was appointed to vicaria‘le for Professor S! thedal, who then had a year's vacation, and in 1399 the growing demand for an English profes— sor in theology led to the appointment of Professor Ur- seth in that capacity In 1904 Professor 8. Oftedal re- signed the chair of New Testament Theology and Church History, which he had occupied since 1873, and in 1905 Reverend Andreas Helland was elected to succeed him. In 1907 the Seminary sustained a severe loss by the death of President Georg Sverdrup. He was a roan of sterling Christian character and combined in an excep- tional degree profound scholarship with rare executive ability.
