The three teams, the Maronns. \Vhites, und Vikings, have been tossr ing buckets and scrimmaging in two different pract‘ce sessions a week. Th hard work has shown results. and now each tclim will be H distinct threat in whatever league it is placed. In determining into which league it is to enter, each team draws lots and plays one game. On the basis of the howing in this single game. the teams are judged and placed in cer- tain leagues. Coaches of the teams are Lars Nes- vig, Maroons: Sandy Mickelson. Whites, and Olaf Johnson, Vikings. Mick Mumhles Again I am at a loss to ﬁnd sonic- thing suitable to write. The ﬁrst thing that catches my fancy is the intra- mural “set-up" at Augsburg. Its change and expansion under our pres» cnt athletic director has been nothinc short of phenomenal, Students seek- ing diversion after tedious hours of concentration may participate in any sport fioni badminton to basketball. This year it is possible for students who plan to coach to secure a minor in ph\ ical education. In addition to the e\panded curriculum, more games hare been added for students who do not participate in intercollegiate sports. This has made our athletic department more drmoerutic in that it ochrs every student an opportunity to take part in some form of ph recreation. It is with this pl in view that Dick Paiitz has expand- ed our physical education program. The-re is an |‘\'Dl'rint'1‘L’Elsil\EZ need in the world today for competent learlei> in the ﬁelds of recreation and phy» slcal educat on. Recreation, to be effective in a de- mocratic society where leisure time is so abundant, must produce men and women who stand for wholesome ape preciatiun of a practical idealism. This cannot be over-emphasized at Augsburg, especially in the training of leaders for those ﬁelds. Instrucr tion in physical education under Mr. Cushman is being conducted with this in View. Henceforth ye athletically-minded students who for some reason cannot participate in inter-collegiate colnper tition may take courses in phy- sical education which will automa- tically make you eligible to teach Such a well-balanced curriculum. lacking in previous years, is now a reality. We feel conﬁdent that in the future Augsburg will put competent men and women in the ﬁeld of phy- sical culture. . ed i l l AUGSBURG ECHO Senior Letterman Pictured above is Chester Hoberg, sterling guard of the Aug/zit- basket ball team. “Ace” is completing his fourth year of varsity basketball. During this t’nie he has seen much service and is regarded as one of the best long shots on the team. Holierg is also captain of this year's base- ball team. In addition to his athletic record, “Ace” is sports editor on the Erho staﬂ’, Student Director of Public'ty. and a “play-writer" of renown.

Two teams from the college foren- sic department. comprised of Gerald Benson. Evenld Strom, Alfred Welt- zin. and Palmer Wold, represented Augsburg at the two day tournament held last week-end at the State Teach- era’ College in St. Cloud. Wold, a veteran debamr, was one of the ten men in the state who won honorable mention. Stronl lacked only a frac- tion of a point of receiving a similar rating. Three weeks ago Augsburg de- baters participated in the Southwest- ern Tournament at Winﬁeld, Kansas. With one team in each of the Junior and Senior Divisions, the Auggies won three of the six decision rounds. Ten contestants turned out last week in answer to Mr. Acker’s call for nratnrs. Students planning to compete in oratory were requested to have their declamations written out by the conclusion of the Christmas holidays. The State Oratorical Con- test, according to Palmer Wold, di- rector of forensics, will probably take place in April. Heuuer Interviews Olympic Title Holder A young girl who took athletics to heart while in high school is now holder of the world's Olympic record for women in the 100 meter dash. Interviewed by Lucius Heussel' after the Auggie-Globe Trotter tilt last Thursday, Miss Stephens told how she had always been interested in sports and had specialized in has» ketball and track while at high school. it was in St. Louis in 1932 that she realised her talent as a trackster by running ﬁfty yards in 5.8 seconds. She later participated in many track meets, and in 1936 won the Olympic record for the women's 100 meter event by making the dash in 11.5 seconds. Miss Stephens is also winner of about seventy-ﬁve other events and meets. Some of her latest victories were in the N. A. A. U. outdoor meet of 1935. Her most recent contribu tion to the sports world is her all girls basketball team made up of players from the Middle West. She would rather play baseball be cause she says it makes a better show of her running ability. The hardest race she was in was the last Olyrn» pics, but she came out the victor. Miss Stephens lost by half a step to Paul Fauske, Auggie trackster, in a 50 yard dash in the Armory last Thursday night.

M. Burglund, traveling lec- turer on the physical sciences, ad- dressed members of the Aristotelian Society at their monthly meeting Tuesday evening, December 6, at the college dining hall. Mr. Burglund spoke to the group on liquid air, dry ice, spun glass, and balsa, a variety of wood. “Spun glass", he declared, “can be used for making clothing, is ﬁlepl-oof, but canv not be dyed; it is also used for dresser scarfs in hotels." He said further that glass is also used etTectively for diving boards. Following Mr. Burglund's address, the annual Christmas party of the sn- ciety was held, With Evelyn Lovaas and Irene Hagen in charge of the eve- ning's entertainment. After gifts had been distributed and games had been played, a luncheon was served. Dr. Arthur Nash and Prof. Carl Fosse were honor guests. COLLEGE asp SKMISABY NI'MBER 4 l , Shirley Cartier, Augsburg coed, re—' cently woke up to ﬁnd herself a mil- lion dollar heiress. Shirley is the only daughter of V. C. Carter. oil geologist, who with ﬁve‘ other men pooled nearly a millionl dollars in a Texas oil ﬁeld and- realized $6,680,000. l Last spring these men became in-: terested in a large portion of land in Galveston county, Texas. A well was discovered on their newly occupied lands last November capable of pro—‘ ducing 40,000 to 50,000 barrels of oil daily. However, the output is held down at present. According to geologists this is one of the richest gulf coast discoveries in years. ‘ When asked if she felt any diﬂei'ent now, Shirley hastily replied: “Dcﬁ.l nitely not!" Shirley came here from, Portland. Oregon, where her home is. located. l Mr. Burglund is one of the group‘ of lecturers being featured this year, by the Aristotelian Society. The or. ganization aims to promote interest in scientiﬁc study among the students. “NORTH HALL' North Hall, for ovel half a century a haven for Augsburg students, will conclude during the Christmas holi- days her long term of service on the college campus.

After the choir presentation the assemblage were invited into the gymnasium. where Prof. H. N. Hendric . n led the group in the singing of Christmas carols and popular songs.

"‘ the of A months of June, July, August, Address all correspondence to “Auossum Ecno", Augsburg College, 8th St. and 21st Ave. 8., Minneapolis. Minnesota. SUBSCRIPTION PRICE: $1.00 PER YEAR “Seeing all things through the eyes of Christ." Our Birthday It is forty years ago today since the Echo, guided by the inspired maxim, “Prdver alt; be- holder det gode," set out on its long career as ofﬁcial organ of the Augsburg student body. The paper should serve to unite all students, faculty, alumni, and friends of Augsburg, wrote Editor Caspersen in his ﬁrst editorial. It should be a symposium of student opinion, a literary rostrom for academic deliberations. It should edify, animate, inform, and entertain—and, nlore important, its outlook should conform to the principles for which Augsburg stands. we believe the Echo has presented to its reade s a well proportioned revue of Augsburg life: and it is our hope that during the next forty years. too, she may no less ably be the expres- sion of what Augsburg really is. Why Christmas ? We all look forward to Christmas and the Christmas vacation—but why? Do we not often think of it as a time when we are free from our usual bonds of school life and can have a really good time, unhampered by studies and rules of conduct? Christmas should be a time of merriment, a time during which teachers should not expect students to keep on working at their studies. It should be a time during which we restore our spent energy and overcome that ennui resulting from months of steady classwork. But throughout the coming vacation let us remember the true signiﬁcance of Christmas, that it is a celebration of the coming of Christ to this earth, and that our spirit during the com- ing holidays should be joyful but reverent, free but yet thoughtful, limiting ourselves and con- trolling ourselves as we believe Christ would have us do. Let us remember that we are His disciples. A Commendation Some outstanding speakers have been brought to us through our regular chapel periods this year. We have, of course, our regular faculty members, but in addition to them we have heard such men as Dr. Hans Lilje of Germany, Rolf Harbo of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the violinist, Alexander Kaminsky, from our chapel platform. We appreciate our regular faculty members and the heart-searching messages they bring to us. But even as variety is the spice of life in other things, it is also of value in such a com- monplace, daily thing as our chapel programs. We appreciate these noted guests, and believe that when the administration avails itself of the opportunity of having such men speak to us it is a deﬁnite and valuable addition to our school life. It widens our horizons and ﬁlls out our educational program a little better than if we were not given these privileges. Study the new Echo election amendments carefully. They are posted on the bulletin board. Certain evils have crept into the system we now have, and these must be remedied! AUGSBURG ECHO RICHES IN POVERTY God might have chosen that Christ be born into n position of great wealth or worldly position. Instead, He chase that the earthly life of His Son should begin in Bethlehem and live out most of its years in lowly, little-known Nazareth. For He knew that poverty forms a better basis for lasting contribution to the life of mankind than wealth or earthly power. The history of the human race conﬁrms this observation, that poverty is no essential obstacle to behalf of humanity. the achievement of great good on Many of the gr‘eatest leaders in both Church and State have come from obscure homes, without either wealth of prestige. wedded to “Lady Poverty.” Luther was the son of a miner. Many. too. have lived in poverty all their lives. St. Paul testiﬁed that he had learned “how to be in want." great Chrysostom was born of humble parentage. rose to the Pontiﬁcute from a very lowly position. The Gregory VII St. Francis was Hans Nielsen Hauge came of peasant stock. William Carey was a cobbler. David Livingstone worked in a factory. D. L. Moody was a shoe» clerk. In secular ﬁelds, the history, not records an almost endless list of only of America, but of the world. men and women who hnve risen from obscurity to be noble benefactors of their people and of the world. And most of the genuinely great contributions to human welfare remain an untold story—to be read perhaps when eternity affords more “time” than does our busy existence of today. Christmas brings a stirring Go spel concerning the Prince who was born among the lowliest of the lowly, who died the death of a de— spised criminal—and who yet enriched humanity as none other has ever done. Christmas has a special message for the poor, the strug- gling, those working against odds. To be a Christian, to believe the message of Christmas, is to he engaged in a glorious adventure as a channel of the condescending power of the Living God.

I must put my trust in God. knowing that he will never fail; and I must be patent in waiting for the fulﬁllment of the promise which He gave: “Behold, a virgin shall con- ceive, and bear a son, and shall call His name Immanuel." Can there then be room for doubt in my heart? Ah, no, I shall yet see the time when this heavyrburdened world below shall rejoice in the coming of the Prince of Peace.

Why are the very heavens singing with joy'.’ “Glory to God . . , peace, good-will toward men." Is there any peace and good- will on earth?

I have been shining as brightly as possible, but no one seems to notice. Can it be that they do not care to ﬁnd their Messiah? Ah, there are three Wise Men looking up at me.

Our engineer is not a believer in ghosts, but of late he is not so sure as to whether they really exist or not. He Vouches for that on certain nights and sometimes early in the morning, he has seen a ghostlike form in the gymnasium. The night ﬁre- man can also testify to this effect. We have an inkling that the ﬁgure seen has been that of an erstwhile member of the present Junior class, who has been making a special eﬁort to add to his physical strength by an extra course in physical culture.

Twenty-two classes have designated their desire to ﬁnance the furnishing of units in the Memorial Hall. Classes entering upon this project are those of 1900, 1901, 1903, 1907, 1910, 1913, 1914, 1916, 1918, 1919, 1920, 1921, 1922, 1923. 1924, 1926, 1927, 1928, 1929, 1931, 1937, and 1938. THURSDAY. DECEMBER 15, 1988 Chapel Challenges Christianity is not a weak system: it demand! heroism. It is not the weakling who will turn the other cheek. . Paul’s word to students: “whatsoever things In true (we are truth seekers). whatsoever things an honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever thing: are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report (don’t look at the world through the nasty news); if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these thingnl" Then the peace of God “which passeth all understanding" shall be with you. a Living is an art which can be learned. When the principles of right living fail to govern us, life in bound to degenerlte. Only God can teach us how to live. a Do you have a real living faith or not? Is it simply theological knowledge, or is it burning conviction! 3 There must come to everyone a moment when he con- sciously decides to walk with God. But agreement to walk with God is not enough; there must be a con- tinuing fellowship which rests upon an experience of mutual trust and understanding. a Not by blinding yourself to God or by ignoring or forgetting sin can his peace come upon you, but only through facing yourself in the light of His Word. Moving Forward As they move along through the seventieth year of the only liberal arts college in Minne- apolis aside from the University of Minnesota, the faculty, students and alumni of Augsburg College are just setting another marker of the institution’s progress in preparing to occupy the ﬁne new Memorial Hall next month. But this is only preliminary to a greater celebration a year hence, when Augsburg’s seventieth anniversary will be marked. Augsburg’s memories are distinguished ones. From the time of its location in Minneapolis shortly after its beginnings as an adjunct of Marshall Academy in Wisconsin, its leaders have been leaders also in the cultural life of the Northwest. Professor Sven Oftedal was one of the founders—a majestic ﬁgure of a man whose educational and other interests were not con- ﬁned to Augsburg, for he served as member of the city Board of Education for ten years, and is called the father of Minneapolis’ system of branch libraries and branch high schools. His colleague, Dr. Georg Sverdrup, president of Augsburg for 31 years, was no less distinguished, though his attention was devoted more deﬁnite- ly to his college duties. Other Augsburgians have ﬁgured largely in the cultural and religious life of Minneapolis and the Northwest, and their alumni will rejoice with the faculty members and friends of the institution during the coming year of celebration of the College‘s distinguished ser— vice and achievements. —Minnea.palis Journal. Kostik Komments In the cemetery of setbacks, organized labor and European democracies have erected another tombstone. This monument of defeat is in France. Daladier’s "extraordinary" peace time measures were not joyfully received by labor. Quite to the contrary, u 24 hour strike was threatened which would involve ﬁve million men. This was an act of protest against the existing government for its revision of the tax laws, and for the repeal of the 40 hour week by decree. But what’s wrong with such action? We even tolerate sitdown strikes in the United States, and are they not more criminaltlike than an ordinary walkout’.’ In reply the only valid objection is that strikes only belong to a continent of peace. They cannot be tolerated where a premium is placed on "tough guys" like Hitler and Mussolini. Therefore, if contemporary powers such as France and Rumaniu are to survive, they, too, must resort to similar tactics. Internally they must be sound. Domestic dissention must be abolished, and a solid front must be presented under all circumstances. But in this France has failed. She is inferior to her totalitarian neighbors, and as such she has now been culled upon to make territorial concessions to Italy. Should this request be granted, and there is little evi- dence to the contrary, then France can correctly be num- bered among the decadent democracies of the twentieth century. But she is not alone in her fate. Her closest ally, Great Britain, would then be pressed for similar concessions by Germany. Should Britain then fail to re mnin ﬁrm, the last chapter of democratic success in the Eastern Hemisphere will be over, and the inscription upon the monument of defeat would be complete. —P. B. W.

Kristofer H. N. Hendrickson. An installation service Frida morning, October 27, in Trinity Lu- theran Church oﬁc‘ally placed D' Bernhard Christensen in the pr dency of Augsburg College and Semi- nary. "The Word became ﬂesh," the motto of Augsburg, was the subject of Dr. Christensen's inaugural address. “‘The Word became ﬂesh' says the Scripture. The statement immediatev ly presents to our minds the concept of two great realities which lit- at the basis of man‘s personal existence on earth: spirit and matter; 'the Word’, which is the outﬂow of expression of spirit, and ‘ﬂesh‘, which is the form of matter with which man ﬁnds him- self most closely bound up on earth." He further said concerning the Christian message, “The Christian has renounced the religion of ‘pure reason'. He believes a Gospel. He believes it because he has been up prehended by it. He has found in it salvation, and restoration to a life that is real. ‘The Word became ﬂesh' is not merely an ancient theolo- gical formulation, but a living Ioun» tain of spiritual life and power." Dr. Christensen then sketched the work of the Church in the world. quoting from “The Autobiography of Lincoln Steﬁenn,” “Things are so bad in this world that justice won’t ﬁx them. It is too late {or that. Noth— ing but love will do the job.” The pre ident closed his addicss with a i-e-aﬁ‘irmation of the unity of Augsburg and the Lutheran one protagonist {or the Truth and the Light which the darkness can new-r overcome."

NOVEMBER 17, 1938 Society Plans Publication of Mission Book To meet the demand for more mis~ aion literature. a joint project has beeen undertaken by the Lutheran erd of Missions, the Women‘s Mis— sionary Federation, and the Augs- burg Mission Society, all subsidiary organizations of the Lutheran Free Church. The project, to take the form of a year book, will cover the various mis- sion activities of the Free Church, it was revealed by Ralph Mortensen, Jr., editor-in-chief of the projected pub- lication. Prominent features in the year book, as outlined by Mr. Morten- aen, will include reports from the million ﬁelds, articles by the mis» sionaries, descriptive and statistical information, representation of the types of missionary work, illustrative human interest stories, and augges» tionl for missionary programs. About onevthird of the ninety-six page book will consist in illustra- tions; the remainder will be letter- press material. The time set tenta- tively for release Of the publication is the ﬁrst part of March. Assisting Mr. Mortensen on the editorial staff are Sara Dixen, editor of the India section; Maurice Molvik, who has the Madagascar department, and Marcy Ditmanson. who is edit- ing the China section, Anderson Speaks On Philippians “Christian Joyfulness" was the theme of a meditation given at the Mission Society meeting October 30 by Waldemar Anderson. Drawing his material largely from the Epistle to the Philippians, Mr. Anderson pointed out the sources of joy in Paul's life. He traced the mlnifestations of joy as they were Ievealed in Paul—joyfulness in sup» plieation, joy in magnifying the name of Christ, joy in service, and joy in assurance of heavenly citizenship. A complete surrender of one's whole being In Christ was Stressed last Sunday morning by Ardell Al- bertson in a study of the meaning and implications of "Faust-oration." True consecration, said Miss Albertson. should express itself in every depart ment of life; it should be present in the daily experiences of an individual. and it should lead him in the right lul use of his talents, his time. his voice, his life in its entirety. Aristotelians Meet; Adopt Amendment A new amendment to the consiiiu» tion. allowing for an augmented con- stituency, was proposed and adopted at a recent business meeting of the Aristotelian Society.

Joe received an urgent call in the middle of the night to come to the University hos— p.tal for the purpose of giving a blood transfusion to Mrs. Engebret- sen, who was in a very critical condi- tion. Mrs. Engebretsen has a son whose name is Philip and who is in turn a very good friend of Joe. Joe had been previously tested and typed as being “universal”. After he had given about a pint and a half of his blood, he stated that he felt very tired as though he had put in a good day's work, although inside of him he had a feeling of joy to know that his life giving ﬂuid had made pos- sible the recovery of a dear friend. Joe is a native of Montana, where his dad owns a ranch. He also has a brother going to Augsburg. Dear Mom, Mother, my roommate, Linda, snares something terrible!

Forward- March! Last winter, as the result of some agitation, a revised publications plan was submitted to the students‘ society, but laid on the table until the fall of 1938. It is about time to consider the proposed changes again, so let us look at the situation. The reason for revision is an attempt to eli- minate politics from the selection of Echo heads. This selection should be purely objective, and made on the, basis of ability and ﬁtness for the position. not popularity. The best method of insuring this is by selection of heads by the board of publications, augmented by representa- tives of the students‘ society, and an approval of this selection by the students' society. The men most capable to select Echo heads are those who have been in close touch with Echo work, and those are included in the board suggested. There are other desirable revisions to be made, such as a rearrangement of titles, which would give the title of editor»in-chief to the head man of the Echo staff. and place him in the board of publications, instead of that antiquated tradition which at present places one of the sub ordinates in this position. These suggestions for revision as made last year come from those who have had long and varied experience in different phases of news- paper work, and have made an exhaustive study of staﬂ" organization. Are their ﬁndings worthy of your consideration? ——V. G. M. Our Brothers’ Keepers Life is bound up inextricably in a maze of re- lationships. Our every action projects itself into the experience of others. In fact, as Sir Thomas of Malmesbury reminds us, “There is no action in life which is not the beginning of a chain of consequences so long that no human mind can imagine its end." The impingement of one’s life upon another in this close afﬁnity obviously places each indi- vidual in a position of unique responsibility. We must recognize that what we do is bound to have its consequences in other lives. Perhaps we all have more inﬂuence on our fellow students than we are aware of, but is that inﬂuence constructive or is it subversive? Are we indulging, for instance, in habits which, while perhaps not injurious to ourselves, are “a stumbling block to them that are weak"? Are we through gossip and calumny besmirching or discrediting the characters of teachers or school- mates‘.7 Are we through indolence and foppery encouraging laxity in others? Do our attitudes promote the spirit of cooperation, or are we fos- tering discord? How do our lives reﬂect the spirit of Augsburg and the spirit of Christ? Condolences The Echo extends its deepest sympathy to Lorrin Dahlager in this his hour of bereavement. Lorrin's father, the Rev. 0. C. Dahlager, an Augsburg grad and a lifelong friend of the school, died from injuries sustained in an ac- cident last Saturday morning, November 12.

YOUR HEALTH 1 Tuberculosis is one of the greatesti scourges of mankind. Although there are less than half as many deaths from tuberculosis today as thirty years ago, there are still over 70,000 who die annually in the United States from the diseas It was recogni2ed even before the time of Christ that the disease was contagious, but the discovery of the germ which causes it, the tubercle bacillus, was not made until 1882 by Robert Koch. The Mantoux or tuberculin test is an initial step in the diagnosis of the disease. It is given by injecting a diluted tuberculin solution in the layers of the skin of the forearm. If the area does not become red in forty- eight to seventy-two hours, the tuber- culin reaction is regarded as negative. A positive reaction shows in a slight redness around the puncture. The thing to remember, however, is that the tuberculin test does not dis- tinguish between the mild or serious types of infection. or between an old case long since arrested and an active one. All it does is to tell that at some time or other the person who reacts positively has “picked up a bug." It tells nothing about whether or not he has active T8 at the moment. For those who have positive Mnntoux, an X-ray is made to aid the physician in further diagnosis. Negative X-rays indicate no foci of infection. It has been pl-oven in countries such as Norway, Sweden, and Den- mark thal tuberculosis may be wiped out by early diagnosis and treatment.

Wednesday, November 19, the Misr sion Society had a business meeting and elected delegates to the Students' Volunteer Movement Convention to be held at Kansas City, Missouri, Der cember 31, 1913 to January 4, 1914. “Temperance”, said the Rev, W.

There- fore in order to prevent such a catastrophe and preserve international solidity, the members of the Pan-American Union have scheduled another annual international conference to be held at Lima, Peru, December 9, 1938. At this congress the representatives of the member nations under the chairmanship of Cor- dell Hull, Secretary of State and the only ofﬁcial representative from the United States, will iron out contracted diplomatic grievances, and will discuss and adopt methods whereby mutual peace, commerce and friendship may best be perpetuated. Furthermore, an agreement con- cerning augmented national defenses will be considered. All this will be accomplished on an honest and fair basis. Territorial superiority will not impede representative equality, The representative from Venezuela is legally on par with the Brazilian envoy. Equality is not only the slogan, but also the practice of the con- ference. But the beneﬁt of this conference will not be conﬁned to this hemisphere in that the integrity of Western democracies only will be preserved. It will also be an object lesson to the rest of the world in that it will reveal the efficacy of human intelligence in satisfactorily dispensing with major and minor (minority) problems. —P. B. W. Inaugural Excerpts Christianity, not least the central Christian Fact, re- mains a light shining amidst the darkness of the thoughts of mankind. It is to this Fact which our motto points: The Word became ﬂesh. God became man. Eternity broke into Time. Divine Spirit clothed itself in a human form. Life tabel-nacled amid the realms of death. Deity en- tered humanity. “God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself." For those who have caught in spirit Christianity does uphold the highest 01 ideals for service and sufering on behalf 0/ men on. earth, There, though the Chrislian college. like (my other educational in- smulloh. call not infalliny chart the course 0/ the future, it can give to its students. in this age as in every other, the inner dynamic of Chm-st to fallou- in His steps in ministering to human needs and in solving human problems. In the immortal phrases of the Prologue to John‘s Gospel there is another striking statement which rightly translated and understood may well express the abiding ideal of the Christian collegHr of any educational in- stitution—in the world of today. It. was written orig» inslly concerning Christ, but in a larger sense it may apply to all who seek to spread truth among men. In the translation which I believe to be the true one, the statement reads thus: "And the Light shineth in the darkness, and the darkness overcame it not." Those simple words summarize the life of Christ. They sum- marize too the experience of His Word and His Church through the centuries. May they be true also of the work to be done in days to come by both Augsburg College and Seminary and by her sister institutions of learning in this state and beyond, among whom she is proud to be numbered as one protagonist for the Truth and the Light which the darkness can never overcome.

Leroy, in company with the Mr. and Mrs. Mickelson of Minneapolis formed the La Moure Trio this sumr mer and performed their hand balanc- ing acts throughout the Northwest. Leroy met Clyde Beatty and, when quei-ried as to his impressions of the famous Wild animal trainer. replied, “He’s an awfully hard looking per son who appears terribly nervous." To quote Leroy, “I enjoyed the sum- mer Very much. For the most part the people one meets are interesting and likeable. Many are Spaniards and Orientals who specialize in balancing acts. The work is health- ful and provides a lot of genuine fun. There is something new, something diﬂ‘erent every few days when you move to a new crowd.” When asked if he had perienced any particular thrills or had any harrowing escapes, Leroy told of how they are often forced to play on small platforms. The end of their act consists of a twenty-five foot dive by Mr. Mickelson from a spring hoard either over a grand piano (or over Mrs. Mickelson when there is no piano) to a hand stand held by Leroy. when the platform is small things sometimes work out wrong and he has to give a quick jerk lest his partner land on his head on the ground below. The La Moure Trio specialize in a hand balancing act called the Slow Motion Control. a stunt which has never been duplicated by any other troup. This act played on Broadway {or a year and was considered “top notch", according to Leroy.

Meet Deﬁnite plans for the annual con- \ention of the Minnesota College Press Association were agreed upon at a recent meeting of the executive committee. November 11 and 12 were set as dates for the couvenﬁon, with Hamliue University and St. Cather- ine‘s College as hosts. Mary Carrol Scanlon of St. Ca— therine's and Kendall Gustafson of Hamlin: are cHhairmen in charge of all arrangements. On Friday.

The program for the day includes round table discussions, 3 business meeting for the election of oﬁlcers, and, ﬁnally, a luncheon in Hamline's Manor House refectory. Concluding the convention an ad dress will be given by a prominent Twin City newspaper man. Twenty—ﬁve colleges will partici- pate in this annual event. Represent- ing Augsburg on the committee for preparations is Ingvald Rossing, Cir- culation Manager of the Echo. Nash Discusses Nat'l Park Service The Aristotelian Society held its ﬁrst meeting October 13. at the home of Dr. Arthur Nash. Tentative plans were laid to include a series of lec- tures by various scientists These speakers will lecture in their own parn'cular ﬁeld not merely to provide information, but to show the mem- bers of the society which ﬁelds are open in science. Dr. Nash discussed his work in the Yellowstone National Park as Senior Ranger Guide. As a conclusion to the evening’s program Mrs. Nash served a lunch. The Aristotelian Society is an hon- orary society including only those- who have had a minimum of one year of College Science with at least a "B" average. Ofﬁcers for the year are: Arthur Knudsen, president; Gerald Person, vicepresident; Irene Hagen, secre— tary: and Philip Horne. treasurer. The next meeting is scheduled for November 21. i. R. C.

Norman Hoifjeld, former Augs- burg student and writer of the “Ac- cording to Hoy" column in last year's Echo, is now living in New York City. “Roy's” father. the Rev. Johannes Huifjeld, who was pastor of the Lu- theran Gospel Tabernacle in Minne- apolis, recently accepted a call to a pastorate in New York. “Hay”, in a letter to a student at Augsburg, tells of a job he has near Harlem, a district of Manhattan borough north of Central Park, and the chief negro quarter of New York City. “At present I am a counselor in a colored boys camp. ‘Shine‘ Brown, a former St. Olaf student, is also leader here. It’s really a great job. We have sixty boys and they go to School during the day: three school teachers take care of them. There are twelve buildings on a forty-eight acre tract including a new gym one hundred feet lung. There are two large dorms. I have the younger boys in my dorm: ten of them are under seven years up age." 1 Farther on in his letter, “Hoy"l continues, “You would have laughed yourself sick if you’d have seen nld Hoy giving his picininies a shower last Saturday night." In a note concluding the letter “Hoy” asked his friend at Augsburg to tell “Ace” Haberg that the teach- ers were having trouble breaking the kids of their Swedish accent.

A number of the ﬁrst try- outs were held early this week. Final eliminations will take place on Nov. 3. Two assistants have been appointed to help John Acker, debate coach, in arranging for debates and in giving aid to new members of the squad. The two appointed are Vincent Mostrom and Palmer Wold, veteran debaters. The debate question for this year. as submitted by the national Pi Kup» pa Delta ofﬁcials, is: “Resolved: That the United Sta-ﬁes should cease to usv public funds for the purpose of stimu- lating business." The debate team is already scliL-dr‘ uled to take part in a debate toui'na» ment at Winﬁeld, Kansas, sonic tiniv in November. Mostrom to Edit Student Directory Vincent Mostrom was elected to the editorship of the 1938-1939 Studan Directory at a business meeting of the Student Society on October 20. The directory, published annually by the Student Society, is a forty— eight page booklet, containing, in ad- dtion to the directory as such, in» formation about student regulations, a list of Lutheran Free Churches in the Twin Cities, a calendar of the . chool year, the basketball schedule, the Student Society constitution and its by-laws, and a list of the student officers. John Prymack has been appointed by Mr. Mostrom as his assistant. The directory, according to its editor, will be off the press in about a week. Freshmen, Sophs Frolic at Party Under the direction of Myron Nel- son, sophomore class president, the annual Freshman»Sophomore Party was held in the Augsburg chapel, Friv day evening, October 14, The program opened with the as seinny singing Auggie pep songs. Following this, Miss Florence Burstad gave a musical reading entitled “I always get the worst of it in my family." A vocal duct was presented by Marjorie Skolness and Eunice Knutson. A humorous reading by Carol Johnson concluded the pro- gram in the chapel. As part of the initiation the fresh- men were forced to walk down the Stairs to the gym backwards. In the gym they were required to give three minutes speeches on various topics, one of these being “Cold Storage eggs remind me of sophomores," rendered by Tom Valvick. In another event of the evening the freshman girls were subjected to the ordeal of walking the plank. Mary Ann Eye. one of the victims, screamed when the sophomores dropped the plank from the breath taking height of two inches. The honor of the sophomore class was upheld by Irene Duran in a pie eating contest in which she competed against ﬁve strapping freshman boys. As a ﬁtting conclusion to the even— ing's revelry, refreshments were served in the refcctory.

Why Not Now? Our sports commentator, Mick Mumbler, gives frank expression in this issue to what seems to be the general concensus of opinion apropos to the return of intercollegiate football at Augsa burg. It is now several years since Augsburg withv drew from grid competition in the intercollegiate conference. The move was undoubtedly one of expediency at the time, for the requisite ﬁnancial support was lacking. Now. however, it seems to us that in the light of certain recent developments, we are justiﬁed in requesting the return of intercollegiate foot- ball. The interests of the athletic element at our school merit it, our would be competitors in other colleges urge it, an augmented student en- rollment expects it, and the spirit of Greater Augsburg demands it. Let's give support to this movement and put Augsburg back into the state football con- ference. We Want Fun, But- The large amount of frivolity displayed on college campuses often makes an outsider, or even an occasional thoughtful college student, stop and ponder on questions such as these: Just what is the nature of these students, the institu- tion they attend, and the philosophy of life they form as a result of their college activities? Ex- amination into the form and substance of their frivolity may make the thoughtful one ponder still more. Humor and fun have their deﬁnite place in life and also in college. However, in all this we must keep in mind the true meaning of these terms. Instead of being harmless‘ amusement, our “college fun" often resolves itself into being a mental form of primitive gladiatorial sport. We try to raise our own ego by dragging the other person through the dirt. This has been especially true of the companionship of men and women, where a natural, ennobling association is treated as the vilest weakness of the human character. Augsburg is a Christian college and we, as a part of that Christian community, should live according to the precepts taught us by Christ. We can still have our fun, but if we have it in a charitable and loving spirit we will act more the part of the ladies and gentlemen that we, as students of Augsburg, should be. ARCH IVE CULLI NGI Tlt'v‘uiy-Ill'r yearn ago. A special meeting of the Mis- sion Society was held October 15, and it was decided to send lwu duEegau-s to the Student Volunteer Convention to ln‘ hold at Kama; City, Missouri, December 31, 1913, to January 4, 1914.

Little by little, during his child- hood, he learns to adjust himself to these laws, and as a consequence is able to move about freely in the material world. Knowledge of this rather elementary type gives him a corresponding type of freedom. Man lives also in a world of thought and ideas held to- gether by the laws of truth. The chief vehicle through which truth is known and formulated is the word, i. e., language in spoken or written form. Through the word mankind is united into a universal fellowship which bridges both space and time, binding into one all lands and peoples and all the centuries of history. In order that an individual may live and move with some degree of freedom in this world of thought and ideas, he must also here become familiar with the principles and laws which prevail within it. For there are laws in the‘realms of truth just as de- ﬁnitely as in the realms of matter. The chief avenue of approach to this great world of thought and ideas created by the mind of man, is scholar- ship. Scholarship is thus one of the principal goals of education. It makes possible a sure-footed walk through the far-stretching realms of human knowledge. It is a source of immeasurable satisfaction, because it gives to the mind the keen pleasure of being able to distinguish be- tween that which is really true and that which is only hearsay or superstition. Changing the ﬁgure, we may say that scholarship is the golden key to the City of Learning. The world of truth is of course so vast that no one can be at home in all its ﬁelds. There are greater differences prevailing among the “continents of knowledge" than among the continents of our earth. Yet there is a funda- mental unity. He who has become well orientated in one area of learning will therefore never be wholly a stranger in any other. The principles of truth are essentially the same in all. And the approach to truth must in every area be marked by the same qualities of honesty, clear thinking, reverence for facts, careful drawing of conclusions. He, therefore, who has caught the spirit and method of scholarship in one single ﬁeld, be it ever so limited, has taken an important step toward the attaining of what has been beautifully called "the scholar‘s conscience." He has “taken out his ﬁrst papers," looking toward full citizen- ship in the Republic of Knowledge. To be a college student should not primarily mean to be registered for “seventeen credit hours," but to be zestfully seeking ti develop those attitudes and abilities which will at last make us worthy citizens of that world-wide “acade- mic republic,“ and glad contributors toward its wealth.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1939 Chapel Challenges The students of Augsburg have been planted in good soil, Are you making use of your opportunities no that you will be fruitful, or are you defying the inﬂuence. of good so that you will leave Augsburg worse am, when you came? s Often the most precious gifts are the most danger-om, Even I good thing carried to an extreme is bed. a We seek freedom—to get away from those things that bind. People play holiday with morals and religions principles and argue that that is their per-Ional liberty. Living in sin is not freedom. In Christ only can we be perfectly free, for “the truth shall make you free." 0 As members of n Christian team we are surrounded by a cloud of witnesses who are closely observing us in the arena of life The world is looking for a demon- stration of real power. Will the many spectators be disappointed in us’.’ c There runs through modern life a tragic uncertainty and skepticism. In contrast, Christianity is buoyant and certain, possessing the ringing confession, “We lave found Him!“ That brings assurance. One does not at- rive at assurance through intellectual reasoning. o This life is a warfare in which everyone must ﬁght; there is no neutral ground. Heaven is organized for the salvation of our souls, and Hell is organized for the purpose of damning our souls. The evil forces are mightier than we, but not mightier than God who has given us the armor. What an urgency there is to put on the whole armor of God. 3 It is not presumptuous for a Christian to make the claim, “I know Him," for that is the essence of his faith. KOITIK KOMMENTI The Four-Power proclamation of a Czecho- slovakian “New Deal” has failed to establish European peace. At best this eleventh hour re- medial measure postponed war, but will not pre- vent future conﬂicts as may be observed by tak- ing cognizance of its far reaching international effects. In the ﬁrst place the action taken at Munich seriously imperiled the harmony of the Triple Alliance composed of Great Britain, France and Russia. The refusal of the Fascist powers to give Russia a chair at the conference table and the neglect of the Democratic nations to insist upon it has strained European diplomacy. This is a diplomatic tragedy, and compares rather closely to the situation prior to the Franco-Ger— man War in 1870. Then France was completely isolated through the efforts of Bismarck. But, the question arises, is it possible that France once again may become the “lone wolf" in the Eastern Hemisphere, with Britain following the course of opportunism and Russia fading back refusing to lend support? Certainly, such a con- dition would be advantageous to Germany. Secondly, the Munich Conference inﬂicted a mortal wound upon the “little” Triple Entente, composed of Czechoslovakia, Rumania and Yugo- slavia, by divesting Czechoslovakia of one ﬁfth of her territorial possessions. This act has made it impossible for Czechoslovakia to maintain economic independence, and has forced her to submit to the economy of the Reich. Henceforth she will be unable to cooperate with her former Democratic allies. And lastly, the Four-Power agreement has prepared the scene for treaty negotiation be- tween Germany and France. The desirability of such an act at the present time is questioned, because the two nations are not equal diploma- tically, thereby making a fair compromise im- probable. This may be ascertained by viewing the stipulations set down by Germany last week saying that if France desires to become her ally she must repeal the Franco—Russian Pact, grant Germany superiority in air forces, and permit the Reich to have a free hand in central Eu- ropean affairs. If the latter of these demands—giving Ger- many a free hand in central European affairs-— is agreed to by France, then Germany has the most lustrous future of any existing nation. She will be able to secure economic domination and ﬁnally territorial possession of all the small na- tions between her southern boundary and the Black Sea, not forgetting the fertile Ukraine valley in Russia. —P.

Halvorson, traveling evangelist in the Lutheran Free Church. will be the speaker during the ﬁrst semester Religion Emphasis Week, October 17-20, announces Mr. Oliver 01!“. director of religious activities. Rev. J. M. Huluorson The theme chosen for religious activities at Augsburg this year is "Christian Community Living." The emphasis, states Mr. Olsen, will be on the extension of such living. The Religious Emphasis Week, long a part of the Augsburg program, has always endeavored to guide the stu- dents’ minds into deeper spiritual consciousness.

M. . iea .' Ditmnnson and Olson remained at the three main stations during the turn- over. Some Christians were forced to leave following the occupation. A part of them have found refuge in the territory of neighboring Lutheran Missions. A rather sharp battle was fought at Luyi, which is one of the main stations of this Mission. When the Yellow River broke its banks dur- ing the recent ﬂood it took a south~ ward course and now divides the Lu- theran Free Church Mission from its nearest Lutheran neighbor, the Au~ gustana Synod Mission. —News Bureau, MINNEAPOLIS, MINN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1938 Augsburg Active at L. S. A. Ashram The Lutheran Students’ Association held its third annual Ashram at Flat- head Lake, Montana, August 22-28. Seventy-four colleges from thirty states sent representatives. Augs- burg had only one ofﬁcial delegate, Waldemar Framstad, president of the Augsburg L. S. A.; but unofﬁcially she was represented by Joel Lundeen, Harvey Carlson, Ralph Mortensen and Arthur Knudsen, an alumnus. Dr. Bernhard Christensen was a prominent member in the brilliant faculty. His message, “The Chris- tian Community in Christ," which preceded the Holy Communion on Sunday. helped mark that service as the climax of a week of lofty spiritual fellowship. The theme of the 1938 Ashram was “A Clinic in Christian Community Living.” Emphasis was laid not only upon talking about Christ, but also on living in communion with Him every moment of the day. Paul‘s statement, “For me to live is Christ," was the challenge held forth to the large group of students. Qusnbeck Submitted For Augsburgisn Post Mr. Werner Spiegel, elected last year to the editorship of the Augs- burar‘an, ofﬁcially notiﬁed the Student Society, September 29, of his decision to resign from that position Mr. Spiegel's resignation was accepted by the student body. The Board of Publications, whose duty it was to present a new can- didate to ﬁll the vacancy, named Mr. Lawrence Quanbeck as successor to Mr. Spiegel. Action by the student body on the acceptance or rejection of this "‘ was L “ ‘ ‘ for the regular Student Society meeting on October 13. Mr. Quanbeck, a Junior, worked on the staff of the last Augsburgi‘an, has been associate editor of the Echo, and was elected last spring to the director- ship of publications. The Augsburgl'an is published bi» ennially under the auspices of the Student Society. Otﬁcers elected last, year to the 1939 Ailpsburyian stsﬂ' were Mr. Spiegel, editor, and Mr. Donald Holm, business manager. The remainder of the staﬂ’ is ap- pointed by the editor and the business manager.

Steenberg of the Paul Steenberg Construction Company of St. Paul, erectors of the new $125,000 boys’ dormitory. Work was started during the ﬁrst week in June, and will be is required in the contract. The building is a replica of the City Hall in Stockholm, Sweden, and fol- lows the European plan of architec- ture. All six outside entrances are varied in design and structure, with no two doors alike. A characteristic of this type of architecture is tagged joints in the brick work. A unique feature of the dormitory is that it contains no corridors, yet each suite opens directly into one of the ﬁfteen wash rooms. Two students will occupy each of the two-room suites. Single rooms are available for those who desire such. (As for bath tubs, there will be only one in the en» tire building, and it will be used ex- clusively by the Dean of Men.) The basement or ground floor is to be used for a large dining room, one hundred and ten feet long, and twclr ty—six feet wide. On this same ﬂoor Will be a large cafeteria, a small din- ing room, a kitchen, and a kitchenette. The ﬁrst ﬂoor contains forty~eight rooms, including a large lounging room. The second and third ﬂoors each consist of fortymino rooms. whilo the top ﬂoor has but sis. The entire building will house approximately one hundred and ten students.

The Registrar's Ofﬁce reports that to date 385 students have enrolled at Augsburg, an un- precedented ﬁgure in ﬁrst semester registrations. According to the News Bullctin, ‘Gustavus Adolphus‘ early registra- tion shows a freshman class 50 per cent above the large class of last year. Muhlenberg exceeds its record of 470, which was reached in 1928, despite rigid selection of students. Capital reports a capacity quota of 750 stu- dents. At Wittenbcrg at least 50 more men are enrolled in the fresh» man class and a 20 per cent increase in total enrollment.” The Record, St. John’s ofﬁclal pub- lication, reports “a college enrollment of over four hundred, one hundred and thirtyAseven in the Prep School, and sixty-four in the seminary. . . . The school reached the highest enrollment m its history, an advance of ram. two over that of last year.” From the Manilou Mcou’nyer of St. Olaf College comes the announcer ment that “the latest tabulation from the Registrar’s Ofﬁce indicates that 1095 students have completed their registration."

SUBSCRIPTION PRICE: $1.00 PER YEAR “Seeing all things through the eyes of Christ.” Support Our Prexy The assumption of the duties as president of Augsburg College and Seminary by Dr. Bern- hard Christensen means his assumption of the responsibility for the success of Augsburg and the efﬁcacy of the Lutheran Free Church. This is a heavy burden to bear, and his election at the annual conference indicates the conﬁdence his people have in him. Part of this burden rightfully belongs to us as students at Augsburg. We can to a large extent determine the success of Augsburg. By giving our wholehearted cooperation we can help Dr. Christensen discharge his duties. It is our duty as Christian men and women to cooperate as fully as possible, and especially during the ﬁrst part of the school year when there are so many things to be taken care of. Our respon— sibility in the welfare of Augsburg does not lie in our loyalty to one man or one institution, but in our loyalty to the cause of God’s kingdom on earth. for the extension of which Augsburg ex- ists. Show Us! “Freshman, you must prove yourself to us. We care little who you are or what you have been in the past, scholastically or athletically; we must be shown." This borrowed editorial sentiment expresses brieﬂy our expectations from you who are this year‘s freshman. We accord you a warm hand of welcome, grateful for the infusion of new spirit and life. We know you have talent and aptitude, perhaps also a laudable record from the school you represent. But what we ask of you, ab initio, is this: that you give expression to your potentialities—through assiduous appli< cation to studies, participation in school func— tions, and interest in all that which constitutes Augsburg. Balance Your Load One of the purposes of a college education is a balanced personality which will aid us in our adjustment to life‘s situations. This balanced personality includes several phases, among which are spiritual development, intellectual growth, socialization, and physical development. Augsburg provides facilities for the develop- ment of all of these phases, and shall we get “our money’s worth” we must utilize these facilities. For our spiritual development we have our chapel exercises, our prayer meetings, the Wed- nesday evening meetings, Mission Society, and during the coming week a series of special meet- ings. And may we suggest that one of the most valuable spiritual helps is an informal period of fellowship and prayer with some fellow students. Our studies provide for our intellectual growth. and should be regarded as one of the very important phases of school life. Various sports are available to aid our physical develop‘ ment For our socialization we have our school social affairs, clubs and societies, and the various extra—curricular activities. Choose a few in which you want to participate, and work active- ly with that group. Do not overload with one thing to the detriment of other things. Make your life at Augsburg a balanced one, giving each phase its proper emphasis. AUGSBURG ECHO A Christian We usually associate with Community the word "community" the idea of a limited geographical area and all the people who happen to live there. with “locality.” We tend to identify “community” But there is also a broader, and deeper, meaning of the word. “Community” is derived from the same root as “common” and “communion,” and signiﬁes a group of peo— ple who have something in common. and who therefore have a real experience of “communion” or fellowship with one another. The word “communism,” which has come to have deﬁnite political connotations in our day, is likewise from the same root, and suggests values of life. an intimate sharing of the The political theory that such sharing is to be compulsory does not belong to the essential meaning of the word at all. “Koinonia,” from “koine” (common), is the Greek word used in the New Testament to denote the ﬁrst Christians’ fellowship, or community. with one another. Usually that word indicated not only a sharing of spiritual blessings, but of material possessions as well. Those early believers knew the real meaning of “community,” of deep fellow- ship with one another in Christ and in His Kingdom. The theme chosen for our spiritual activities at Augsburg this year is “Christian Community Living”; in other words the living out of the Christ—life and the Christ-spirit in our daily contacts with one another and with the extra-campus world. It presents an ideal which will challenge the highest energies of us all: to enter into one another’s life and problems in a strife-torn world the true meaning of Chris- tian love. Dr. Bergendoff has reminded us that it is futile to try to introduce the Kingdom of God into the state legislature if we cannot introduce it into the smaller spheres of the Ladies’ Aid or the church choir. Is not the Christian college campus a miniature world where with special effectiveness the practicability of Christ’s teachings may be tested out and demonstrated? May Augsburg be such a proving-ground this year! Your Health A cold is a local inﬂammation of the mucous membrane of the upper iespiratory tract, chieﬂy of the nose and throat. It is a most prevalent disease and constitutes one of the greatest handicaps to health and ef- ﬁciency. About 50 per cent of the absenteeism in school is caused by colds. As yet no speciﬁc micro-orgasm ism has been found that could be con- sidered the etiologic factor. Toxins are formed that give rise to the symp- toms such as inﬂammation and swell- ing of the mucous membrane, fever, headache, general malaise and lung- uor. Among the conditions which pre- dispose one to colds are lowered vital- ity, malnutrition, anemia, wet and cold feet, over—fatigue, and indoor living in overheated rooms. A cold that is not properly cared for may be the start of serious trouble, such as pneumonia or mastoiditis. A cold usually runs a regulai course, although early treatment will usually shorten the attack. Rest is perhaps the greatest factor in its treatment, for it gives the body a chance to regulate its temperature and also to get rid of its acid products produced by fatigue. The body may be made less acid by eating citrus fruits and by drinking one glass of water every hour, plus a teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate every four hours. When one has a cold it is well to keep oneself isolated for several days. Proper care will minimize the period of disability and tend to prevent se- quelae. BERN HARD CHRISTENSEN. MILLIE Are you wondering how to spend your Sunday afternoons? Here are a few suggestions: The Minneapolis Institute of Arts, located at 201 East 24th Street, is open to visitors every Sunday after- noon from one to ﬁve. Here you will ﬁnd sculpture, paintings, and anti- ques from almost every period and region. Illustrated lectures are given every Sunday afternoon. During October a display of miniature rooms is being shown as a special attrac- tion. Minnehaha Park, on Minnehaha Avenue and East 48th Street, oﬁers such sports as tennis, volley ball, and horseshoe. Here one may see the site of the Minnehaha Falls, made famous in Longfellow‘s poem, “Hia- watha.” At Como Park, between Como and Hamline in St. Paul, you will ﬁnd a horticulture building, containing, to- gether with other tropical plants, a century plant. “Monkey Island" stands out as the special attraction of wild life featured at the park. Ashram Echoes The following are some of the vital statements uttered by prominent speakers at the Lutheran Students Association Ashram this summer: “We are gathered here because there is a world that is dying."-vRolf Syrdal. “Knowledge (of God) is real only when it is vital, that is, lived."— Dr. c. P. Harry. “A vital realization that every be- liever is J J with the ' ' Condolence: The Echo staﬁ expresses its sympathy with Ruth Hompland in the recent death of her moth- er and with Dean Melby in the loss of his father. Augsburg also feels keenly the removal of one of her most faithful leaders, the late Rev. M. B. Michaelsen, secretary of the Board of Trustees. right and charged with the unavoid» able duty to ﬁnd his brother and bring him to the Christ, will rally the Church."—Dr. R. D. Lerhlietur. “Both (Church and State) are in- dispensable. It is a travesty when either of them, instead of perform» ing its own duties, attempts to invade the territory of the other."~Dr. Jens P. Jensen. “You (Lutheran students) occupy a unique position—a spearhead in the rallying of the Church; and if you are going to rally the Church, give yourself to God."—Dr. Jens P. Isn- son. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13, 193! ADCHIVE CULLINGI .55 years apo. School is now going at a full gait. The student enrollment is 78, of which 19 are in the Theolo- gical Department. The Theological Department has eighteen hours of instruction each week. Augsburg students attended the regular meeting of the University Delta-Sigma Society. A main feature of the program was a debate on the question, “Resolved, that the French Republic can not last one hundred years." 25 years ago. School opened Wednesday, September 24, 1913, with only ﬁfty students present. but more have come nearly every day so that now we have on enroll- ment of about one hundred. This year chemistry was added to our college course. A splendid laboratory was ﬁtted up during the summer months. The student’s Society held its business meeting Octo- ber 11, and elected the following ofﬁcers: Melvin Olson, president; J. R. Huglen, vice-president; Clarence Fram— stad, secretary; and John Houkom, treasurer. A very enthusiastic meeting of the Prohibition League was held October 13. It was decided to have a Prohibi- tion Oratorical Contest this year, to have several good Prohibition speakers address us on the different phases of the liquor question and to get at least ﬁfty members in the local League. KDITI K KDMMENTI Now that the dove of peace has once again lighted on the pinnacle of international affairs, our attention is attracted by national and state problems. In the nation a potential chasm is feared in the ranks of the Democratic Party because of the "New Dell Purge" attempted by Roosevelt in an effort to rid Con- gress of all undesirables. To this danger a temporary healing balm was publicly administered by Jim Farley, the National Chairman, who pledged party support to liberals and conservatives alike. This was a hard "pill" for the New Dealers to swallow. But in Minnesota, also, politics are in a complete med- ley with Farmer-Laborites, Republicans and Democrats all seeking the gubernatorial victory in November. Ac- cording to current radio news ﬂashes statistics indicate that the Republicans are gaining rapidly on the Farmer- Labor administration thereby making their position ex- ceedingly table. This increase in Republican support is attributed in part to the brilliant leadership of Harold E. Stassen, whose forceful derogatory exposi- tions of the opposition make him an ideal ﬁgure for promoting the progressive policies of the Republican Party. ‘ But will the progressive policies professed by the Re- publicans become a reality should they come into power? This question in the course of this campaign has been asked by thousands of citizens in Minnesota. They have observed that the Republicans now pledge their honor to promote legislation for civil service reforms, as sound labor relations act modeled after those in Sweden, Nor- way, and Denmark, and the restriction of state spending. The majority of these issues have been met with ap- probation. But the citizens of this state recall that the record of the Republicans in the last session of the state legislature is contradictory to the liberal planks new ad— hered to. Then a labor relations act designed to bring peaceful means in settling labor disputes was passed by the House and promptly rejected by the Republican con- troled Senate. Also a 44 hour week for women in in- dustry was sponsored by the liberal House and thumbed down by the Republican opposition. And lastly, the Senate crowned its static relation to an ever advancing public by unanimously repudiating the Anti-Lobby Bill requiring all lobbyists to register, state the nature of their activities, and give an account of the funds ex- pended. Being conscious of these facts and befuddled by con- tradictions, the industrious common man wonders where he should cast his vote November ’1. —P. B. W. Chapel Challenges The Christian’s life is one of continual wor- ship. . Augsburg is a Christian institution, which implies that every student must give Christ His rightful place in study and life. a What a Friend we have in Jesus! U Like a mirror, a subject may be turned so that the Creator will not be reﬂected in the study of it. When the Creator is ruled out. we do not have light and truth anymore. 1 Choose the most noble vocation possible for you. The greatest satisfaction that can be de- rived from any work is that which has been done unselﬁshly and for the spiritual beneﬁt of others. . We have been given talents. What are we doing with them?
