Show moreJohnny Quint Bows To Maroon and Gray Mona ls Leading Scorer With Total of Eighteen Points Augsburg came through victorious in their second conference game, January 14, drubbing St. John’s 42- 22 in a loosely played affair to re- tain the conference leadership. Play was marred by poor passing and wild shots by both teams. The Auggies were unable to hit the loop in the ﬁrst half, missing numerous attempts under the basket. The de- fcnse was also ragged, giving the Johnnies several shots in foul terrie tory to keep the Auggie margin down considerably until “Lute” Mona, the high riding Auggie ace, hit his stride in the second period. Augsburg scored in the opening seconds when Rnrtvedt. followed in on the opening tip-off play. St. John’s gained a +3 lcad a few moments later on a ﬁeld goal and a couple gift shots. This lead was short lived as Rortvedt hit the loop several times to give the Auggies a comfortable margin that \\‘1|!~' ncwl' threatened. Mona was high point man of the tilt, scoring eighteen points for a total of 35 in two games. Missing so ral attempts in the ﬁrst half, he gained his uncanny eye to score seven (it-Id baskets in the latter period, hitting the mesh at will from difﬁcult angles and driving shots from under ll’lt' hmlp.

The Auggies dominated the play throughout the entire game, never bcing heeded after gaining the lead. The ﬂoor work and guarding of George Kolesar and “Haak” Ander- son were largely responsible for the showing of the Auggies. Jens Midtaune with three ﬁeld goals captured the scoring honors of the evening. with Rortvedt with one ﬁeld goal and three free throws right behind. The outstanding men in the Teach- ers' line-up were Miller and Schlicht. FG. FT. PF. 3 0 Augsburg Midtaune, f. Bachaus, f. Rortvedt, c. Kolcsar, 5:.

The Auggie ﬂoor work and shoot- ing was much superior to that of the Concordia team, and as a result they were never in much danger. Gain- ing an early lead through the shoot— ing of Kolesar and Jens Midtaune, the Maroon and Grey team was able to set a fast pace and so wore down the opposition. Jens Midtaune and Captain Ror- tvedt tied for scoring honors with four ﬁeld goals apiece. The outstand- ing worker on the ﬂoor was George Kolesar, who played a brilliant oﬁen» sive and defensive game, also contri- buting ﬁve points to the total.

Senior Pictures To Be Taken At Zinsmaster The senior class, at a meeting held January 8th, decided to take class pictures at the Zimmaster studios during the month of April. They also decided to have a skat- ing party Saturday, January 17th. The following committee was ap- pointed to make all arrangements: Arthur Iverson, Agnes Ness and Esther Peterson. Augsburg Midgets Lose To Bethel Academites The Bethel giants" of St. Paul scored a 36 to 14 victory over the Academy "Midgets" in a game on the Augsburg court, Friday night, Jan. 9 The ﬁrst quarter was very fast and exciting. Anderson, guard, opened the game by sinking a basket from the side of the ﬂoor. He showed a ﬁghting spirit and played his part as guard very cleverly. Oudal and Iverson, forwards, led in the attack with ﬁve baskets, while Oren, center, completed the scoring with a free throw. Among the Alumni O. Myking Mehus, ’16 O. Myking Mehus was bani near Brinsinade, North Dakota, of Norwe- gian parents. He completed his high school courle at Brinsmade, and re- ceived his Bachelor of Arts degree at Augsburg College, in 1916. In college he was active in oratory and debate and was editor of the college paper. He received his M. A. degree from the University of North Dakota in 1920 where he also held a scholarship and did work in sociology and educational psychology. He spent the following two years at the University of Min» nesota in further graduate study to- wards his Ph. D. He held a Teach» ing Fellowship the ﬁrst year and the second year he was promoted to in- structor in the Department of Socio- logy. In his research work at the University of Minnesota he made an intensive study of the extra—curricu- lar activities of the students at the University. In December 1927, Mr. Mehus read a summary of his ﬁnd- ings before the American Sociological Society at its meeting in Washing- ton, D. (3. Two years later the Uni- versity press published a book con- taining a report of his project. Mr. Mehus has had twelve years of teaching experience.

In spite of the fact that there was such a diﬁerence in size of the play- ers of the two squads, the Augs- burgians outplayed the Bethelites in nearly every respect. Academites Defeated By Concordia Quint The Augsburg Academy ﬁve lost their second conference encounter, Tuesday night, falling before a mighty Concordia quintet on the local iloor, 30—4. The ﬁrst half ended in a very one- aided score of 24—0, though the local boys were only outscored by one has- ket in the latter half. The Augsburg Midgets were no match for their big- ger and more experienced opponents. Justin Oudal, the little Auggie ﬂash, scored one of the Augsburg counters from mid-ﬂoor, while Oren counted the other, dribbling under the basket to loop the other. Bertram, guard, and Teyler, center, were the outstanding performers of the evening. making the most out of their superior height. Iveraon, Anderson, Blake, Johnson, and Meraeth were the other Augs- burg entries. Ibsen Is Subject 0f Phi Gamma Discussion Phi Gamma was entertained at Myriella, January 12, by Mr. Clement IAesland and Mr. Ole Helland. Ibsen was the subject of their study. Agnes Ness read extracts from Doll's House," and [Aster Johnson read a scene from the drama, “Peer Gyn ". Agnes Hagen gave a short sketch of the author's life. Mr. Leesland discussed the life and works of Ibsen brieﬂy, and Dr. B. M. Christensen shared with the smdents some reminiscences of the Ibnu fes- tival in Norway in 1928. Mr. Geoorge Salveson played a saw solo, and refreshments were served by the hosts. State Teachers' Colege at Maryville, Missouri. He was married to Miss Emma Helle of Fergus Falls, Minn., in 1920. As yet he has made no trips abroad but his letter states that is one thing he wishes to do after securing his Ph. D. He is a member of the follow- ing organizations: The American So- ciological Society, Pi Gamma Mu, Kappa Phi Kap, American Associa- tion of University Professors, Na- tional Educational Association, and Nodaway County Red Cross Execu- tive Council. This year he is the Missouri State chairman for the Paris Peace Pact essay contest among high schools and district chairman of the Northwest Missouri Social Wel- fare Conference. While at Augsburg, Mr. Mehus was an ardent prohibitionist. In his letter he writes, “In the past Augs- burg was noted for its ﬁrm stand on prohibition. I hope that it will send out men and women who are intelli- gently interested also in other move- ments, such as world peace, race re- lations, and economic problems. To— day we need collegestrained men and women who will apply the teachings of Jesus to our modern social prob— lems. Religion is a vital force in our social relations or else it is not the kind of religion that Jesus taught." sAusuxcERs LIGHT LUNCHES Rasmussen Hamburger Shop 2E4 Riverside Ave. Auggies Down Tommies In Conference Opener “Lute” Mona Leads Mates To Sensational Victory Augsburg's 1930 cagers came through with a sensational victory in their opening conference game, Jan. 10, taking a brilliant St. Thomas team into camp by a slight margin, 27-24 on the latter’s court. Though the Auggies possessed the lead throughout most of the battle the Tommies pressed their opponents to the limit and often threatened to take the lead in the closing minutes. At no time did either team enjoy sufﬁ- cient margin to feel comfortable. The accurate eye of “Lute” Mona was the feature of the contest as he led his mates to victory, contributing a total of 17 points to the Auggie total. His brilliancy pulled the game out of the fire several times through- out, to stem the powerful attack of the purple wave. Captain Rortvedt had an off night offensively, as the two Augsburg guards performed in an exceptional manner. Anderson in- terrupted several Tommy attemps that might have otherwise been count- ers, while Kolesar directed most of the play. Coach “Si” Melby used but seven men to subdue the foe who substituted freely, using eleven men during the forty minutes of play. The St. Thomas substitutes played equally as well as the starters. Captain AntiI was the stellar performer for the Tommie quint playing both a strong defensive and offensive game, consti- tuting the main obstacle in Augs- burg‘s progress. Rortvedt tied the score up at 1 all with a free throw in the opening mo- ments followed by a couple goals from the court by Anderson and Midtaune to give the local boys 3 four point ad vantage. This'lead was short lived as the St. Thomas forwards combined forces to take the lead 9-12 only to lose it when Mona tossed a couple of diﬁicult shots through the hoop, re- taining the lead to the end of the fray. The Auggies led at half time 1442. Though the shooting and passing of both teams was ragged at times, never did the game become dull. From start to ﬁnish it was a nip and tuck tussle between two of the outstanding teams in the conference, with the Auggies holding a slight advantage in team play and working the ball into shooting range. A couple ﬁeld goals in the closing moments of the game brought the Tommies up trail- ing by the slight margin of one point and threatened seriously to capture the honors, but Mona came through again with a ﬁeld goal, driving into the basket heavily guarded to put the game on ice with seconds to go.

Pederson spoke on Gandhi and the present trend of af- fairs in India at the meeting of the Mission Study Group, January 7. “England has done much for In- dia," said Rev. Pederson. The intro- duction of an educational program has been uphill work because of the caste system and aversion to the edu- cation of women. Gandhi was spoken of as one of the greatest men in the world today, but his motives for starting his last passive resistance movement were questioned. The ques- tion of whether Great Britian shall have the monopoly on the manufac- turing of salt in India is one of the issues musing mhch trouble. The speaker did not believe India was ready for independence. Three Alumni Receive Degrees At University Three Augsburg alumni, two of whom are members of the faculty, re- ceived their degrees at the University of Minnesota at the mid-winter grad- uation, which was held Dec. 17, 1930. Miss Selma Storien, librarian, re- ceived her B. S. degree in the ﬁeld of library. Prof. Henry N. Hendrick- son, head of the history department, was given his M. A. degree in history. Benjamin Kleven, a former member of the faculty, also received his M. A. degree in the ﬁeld of history.

Again the speaker brought out exultantly how Jesus answers the trusting prayer with His emphatic “I will." Jesus is the same today as He was of yore, anxious to cleanse man’s loathsome leprosyisin. This is one of the three regular series of gospel meetings to be held during the year. Special music is furnished by the students each even- ng.

We all feel a glow of exhilaration upon entering a new quarter because of the challenge which it presents to us. It is true that many of our courses are a continuation of last quarter's work, but we have the opportunity to make this one more success- ful through proﬁting by the mistakes and triumphs of the past quarter. There are always numerous ways in which we can make our work more successful than in the past; but each one of us can judge this best for himself by the unﬁnished tasks which con- front him and by the mistakes which he has made. Each new quarter should surpass the past one in achievement. We must not, however, become so absorbed in our daily tasks and duties that we lose sight of the greater things in life. We are fortunate here at Augsburg that these things are kept before our minds—through the chapel services, religious activities, and in the classroom. Because of these great opportunities, our re- sponsibilities are so much greater. It is well to be mindful of these things at the beginning of the year, so that we will not have to regret later that we did not make full use of our privileges. Let us meet the challenge of a new quarter by having the strength of character, the resolution, and the faith to confront our problems and complete our tasks day by day—never losing sight of our great opportunities and, in turn, our great responsi- bility. —M. S. THE HONOR SYSTEM Aside from being an exercise in spelling, the honor pledge at Augsburg is like a scarecrow, the eyes of which have been picked out by the very birds which it sought to frighten. Not that it matters. It only ﬂaps its arms once or twice a quarter anyway. To the honest student the honor pledge makes no difference whatsoever. We cannot see that it does much for the dishonest student either. To sign one's name insincerely would be scarcely more difﬁcult than to cheat. There are some, however, who claim that there is some psychological reaction in the words, “I pledge on my word of honor,” which helps them to do the right thing. We question the genuine tone of a morale which functions only when keyed in such a manner. There is the instructor who trusts his students absolutely until they have proved themselves unfaithful. There is the instructor who trusts no one, but paces up and down a room, ready to pounce upon an offender at the least suspicion. There is the teacher who gives the questions and requests the honor pledge, hoping that everyone will answer the former and keep the latter. It is said that there is a. minimum of dishonesty at Augsburg. We would not Want to have as much here as we have heard exists at other places. We do not want to have any. The fault is, perhaps, not so much that of the honor pledge. The pledge at least expresses an ideal for which it is worthwhile to strive. Where student opinion and the general student atmos- phere are elevated and noble, the cheat will not feel comfortable enough to stay. Practices which are not tolerated lethlisIap‘pear. JOY OF LIFE A great deal of the joy of life consists in doing perfectly, or at least to the best of one’s ability, everything which one attempts to do. There is a sense of satisfaction, a pride in surveying such a work—a work which is rounded, full, exact, complete in all its parts—which the superﬁcial man, who leaves his work in a slovenly, slipshod, half-ﬁnished condition, can never know. It is this conscientious completeness which turns work into art. The smallest thing, well done, becomes artistic. ——William Mathews. CAMPUS NOTES It seems nice to have the studenu back at school and everything in full swing again. The old place looked mighty lonely during the holidays. Welcome, new students! s Yes, believe it or not, the Echo room is almost completely furnished. A group of hard-working staff mem- bers got busy during vacation and completed the room with everything except a ﬁre-place. 0 Well, now it. will be another year until Christmas comes again. When we all came back, did you notice the new ties, scarfs, spate, pencils, watches, and the other usual gifts! s Mr. Nash has a new aquarium in his room. Listen students, ﬁshing season doesn't open until May 15th. 0 We are all pleased to see "Mugs" Skurdalsvold back with us sguin. We understand he is writing a book called “The Art of Hunting." :3 Mrs. Carlson, assistant to Mrs. Johnson in the dining hall, is con- ﬁned to the Fairview Hospital with s bad case of pneumonia. 3 We are very glad to welcome Mr. Thompson, our janitor, back after a long siege of sickness. A pep meeting was held in the gymnasium, Friday evening under the direction of Norman Flagstad in pre- paration for the St. Thomas game. Captain Otto Rortvedt and Assistant Coach Jimmy Pederson gave short talks on behalf of the team. A great deal of enthusiasm was shown. it Riverside Park has become a popu- lar rendezwous for the Auggie skat- ers. Members of the W. A. A. have started the new year by playing has- kethnll. Fern Pederson has been elected squad leader. KING OLAV King Olav. By J. J. Skordalsvold. Minneapolis: Augsburg Publishing House, 1930. A ﬁtting commemoration of the nine—hundredth anniversary of the ad- vent of Christianity into Norway is this life story of King Olav the Saint, by J. J. Skordalsvold. Mingling authentic historical facts with the many interesting but more questionable legends of King Olav's day, the author has succeeded in producing a fascinating account of early Viking history. “The aim of this booklet is to give a simple sketch of the life of King Olnv the Saint and of his contribu» tions to the life of the Norwegian people," according to the author. He has succeeded remarkably Well in ful- ﬁlling his purpose. For young Norwegian-American ’ who are ' ’ in the land and history of their forbears, this little volume is heartily recom- mended. It can do much to awaken in them a feeling of pride and interest in their Viking heritage. —B. H. CRITICISM There is something small about the person who is always ready to criti- cise other people and their doings. but who invariably seeks to wriggle him- Self out of the responsibility of con- sidering the criticism by another per- son upon his own life. He seems to derive some sort of comfort out of be- littling his neighbor. not realizing that in so doing his own nobler self shrivels up to s pigmy size in order that it might hide bahind the per- ticulsr fault or mistake in question. 0n the other hand, there is some— thing distinctly noble about the man who in humility Ind love beers with another’s faults and only calls his at» tentiou to them as a friend. This he does sympathetically and in the spirit of truest brotherhood. He has imbibed some musure of the spirit of the Gmt Teacher. B. @ Hri Verbruggheu sud his inu- siciaus of the Hiunupolis Symphony Orchestra next Friday night will hid symphony patrons farewell before the orchestra’s annual mid-winter tour which will cover I period of ﬁve weeks. The 160th anniversary of Beet- hoven’s birth was celebrated by the Royal Opera of Stockholm thru I re— vival of his opera “Fidelio.” “Where and how did jazz de- velop?” is a question which will re- ceive e tentative answer when the In- ternational Colonial and Overseas Ex- position opens in Paris hext May.

The Hemnica. The Red Wing Sem» inary celebrated its ﬁfty-ﬁrst anni- versary recently. Founders’ day was marked by several programs in which prominent alumni took part. s The Hub of Cambridge (Minn.) High School boasts the youngest newspaper subscriber in the country, namely the eight months old daughter of the principal of that institution. What a splendid thing it would be if people who lost their tempers wouldn’t be able to ﬁnd them again. s Maybe it’s because men get out of life exactly what they put into it that makes them so unhappy. e No man works harder against his own interests than the man who works for them exclusively. Echoes And Reechoes Jan. 1901 Claus Morgan and O. C. Dnhlsger are the new editors of the Echo. George Martin, of the class of ’98, has left for the Phillipine islands where he will join the Hospital Corps. The ﬁrst lecture after Christmas in the series sponsored by the History club was delivered by Prof. Sverdrup on the topic “The Battle of Marathon". About forty-ﬁve students stayed at A L during the t" ‘ holidays. A Christmas tree fea~ tival was held in the boarding club on Christmas Eve. Claus Morgan has been elected president of the boarding club.

Annual Yuletide Party Held In Gymnasium (Continued from page 1) a poem by Francis Thompson, was read by Beatrice Hellnnd, after which Alexander Borrevik played a violin solo. Mr. Rudolph Goransou was his accompanist. The address of the evening was given by President Sverdrup. His thoughts centered around the Babe Jesus and His coming to earth. The Choral Society sang “The Mid- night Hour,” and then Prof. Hem drickson invited everyone to join in singing Christmas carols as they marched around the tree. During this time the usual refreshments, candy and apples, were passed around. Sophomorically Speaking We hear rumors that another so- ciety is being formed.

At this meeting ﬁve members were added to the Society. They were: Alice Johnson, Arnold Oren, Jelmer Oren, Edward Merseth, and Esther Peterson. Sabatini was the author discussed at this meeting. A report on his book, “The Strolling Saint" was given by Agnes Ness. His works were Com- pared with Scott‘s. The faculty mem- bers present added their comments to the discussion. Refreshments were served by the hostess. A. N. Sophomorically Speaking We are wondering if the only way to recognize the seniors is by means of their jackets. Children must play. So did some of the seniors on Friday. (Pee Wee Golf Course, Basement, East Hall). “At last we are being used!" cried the books at the second hole. 0 Freshman: “If Thanksgiving Day comes on Friday. may we have the rest of the week off?” . We heard of an absent-minded pros fessor who, having driven his car down town for the ﬁrst time, forgot that he owned one and went home on the street car. 3 A freshman saw a sophomore run for the street car; saw the sophomore sprawl upon the icy street; saw a gentleman pick her up.!The fresh- man laughed. Chewing gum may be good for Pyhorrea, but you don't brush your teeth in public. Turkey and Grease were prominent Nov. 28. Mr. C. A. Hedberg Lectures At “Club” (Continued from page 1) expressed his opinion that sixty per» cent of the inmates of prisons should not be there at all, but that the rest should remain there for life. State- ments such as these made a profound impression on the students, whose only connection with these phases of life has been the newspaper. At the close of his lecture Mr. Hed» berg distributed copies of one of his poems to the students.

MINNEAPOLIS Free Phone Service Among the Alumni John Oluf Evjen Dr, Evjen, an Augsburg College graduate or 1895, has tried to main- tain the dignity and value of theo- logical research. His vigorous mind which forever welcomes new insights into the ﬁeld of theology and other sciences has made it possible for him to be recognized by scholars abroad as the most eminent example of a disciplined theologian in Lutheran America. Dr. Evjen was born of Norwegian- American parents at Ishpeming, Michigan, December 13, 1874. He re- ceived his academic training at Augs» burg College, getting his B. A. degree in 1895, and graduated from the Semi inary in 1898. He then went abroad and studied at the University of Leip- zig, receiving his Ph.D. in 1903. In 1904 he was married to Miss Selma Krelschmann of Berlin, Germany, and six children have been born to them. He revisited Germany in 1905 and 1907 for the purpose of library research. Dr. Evjen was ordained by the United Norwegian Lutheran Church in 1903 and served in the pastorates at Muskegon and Grand Rapids for a short period. His life has been that of an acade- mic man. He taught at the Lutheran Seminary, St. Paul, 1903405, at Get~ tysburg College, Gettysburg.

Carthage College, Carthage, 111., 1923. 192-1, Hamma Divinity School, Spring- ﬁeld, Ohio, 192529, Carthage College, 1930*. In 1928 Carthage College conferred on him the degree of Doc- tor of Theology. His literary works number almost twenty books besides contributions to from [he Zia/d Barronett, Wis, Dec. 8, 1930. Fellow Augsburgians: A little six year old boy tiptoed softly to the crib of his baby brother who had only recently entered into this world of joys and sorrows. His eyes were bright and shining, but grave. He stooped rar over, gazing down on that little wrinkled baby face. “Now, baby brother," he Whispered softly into one tiny red ear, “tell me about God before you forget." It is a little over a year now since I left the halls of dear old Augs- burg to enter into that ﬁeld of labor of which I had for years dreamed and for which I had planned and hoped. The truth that has astounded me the most is that one so strikingly and innocently expressed by the six- year old lad, “Tell me about God be- fore you forget." It appears to me that as time removes mankind farther and farther from the cradle period of life, the more prone is it to forget God and His manifold goodness. That is the sad part of this world. In the maelstrom of daily activity God, who guides it all, is lost sight of and is shoved into the distant background. The spiritual ear becomes hard of hearing and the spiritual eye dull There is the problem. Oh how we need to pray the prayer of Elisha for his young servant who had become terriﬁed at the multitudinous hosts of the enemy, “Open his eyes that he might see”. It is with respect to this that I look back upon old Augs- burg with a song of thanksgiving on my lips. Herein she has a mission— it has been and will be so in time to Come. I have just been reading the “Home- coming" souvenir program. In it is an article entitled “Augsburg, My Spiritual Home." That is the ex» perience of many of us. One cannot be long within her walls before that message rings out most clearly, through the daily chapel exercises, through the work'in the classroom, through the religious activities spon- sored by the students and the faculty, through the daily contact with Chris- tians, yes, I might say, through the very air one breathes while within her dear walls, “Remember thy Crea» tor in the days of thy youth.” Many have~the glory belongs to God— heard that call in past years, yes, the glad message reaches my ears that even this year some of the stu- dents have experienced the liberating power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

A strange question, you say. Is it not true that this very thing happens every Christmas day? We deck the house and stock the pantry. We spend weeks in planning and preparing gifts, but whom are we honoring after all? Is it not Jesus Christ whose birthday is being celebrated by all the world“! When all is ready, the Guest of honor is too often not even invited to the festival. Have you considered that there is a gift of priceless worth which you may bring as a tribute to your Christ, a gift which you alone can give? And when you have given him your heart, you will want to bring him other offerings as well. This year we are being called upon to remember the many needy persons in our community. This is certainly a worthy “gift suggestion” Our church schools and mission treasuries are suffering because of business depres- sion this year. When we are making out our Christmas lists, let us not forget Jesus and his work. “Make His gift the ﬁrst of all! ‘Inasmuch as ye Did it to the least of Mine, Ye have given to Me!’ " OUR QUEST This is not an idealistic age. We are supposed to be sophis- ticated and cynical. We think that we know life, and we are not going to be deceived by the stick-in—the-muds of by»gone genera- tions into a reverence for oldfashioned ideals. Such is, perhaps, the trend of thought today, but under that hard shell of cynicism there beats the questioning heart of youth. It must ﬁnd satisfaction for its longings and a haven from its fearsisomewhere. Some of us have gone far astray in our quest. Others have been wisely guided to the right path in youth so that they have never missed the trail. Still others have nothing but the longing in their hearts to lead them to the Truth. But in this quest the Truth is also seeking us. Discovering that, we immediately recognize a person who cares. If there is one who cares, and we believe it, cynicism disappears. To those of us who have found Him remains the task and privilege of helping others to know the One Who came to us and bids us come to Him. —G. J. J. —-B. H. OUR BOOKS To speak to a college student about books may seem to be en- tirely unnecessary. We have all learned to know their value and their price. All of us possess a few of them. They may be dis- ﬁgured because we have purchased them at second hand, or they may look like new because they have never been used. There is a type of student who simply is not interested in books. The name studcnt is misapplied, but that is what he calls himself. When called upon to recite during the ﬁrst half of the quarter, he pleads imiorance because he has not been able to get a book; the second half of the quarter he does not know his lesson because he has lost his textbook. He does not have it with him when it is needed for use in class. He maintains that at least half of his education has nothing whatever to do with books. He is con- tinually pursuing that half. Who has not felt a stab of pain as a favorite volume has, be- cause of our carelessness, fallen to the ﬂoor? Who has not loved a book better because it has been, when needed, a help in time of trouble? We read of a man who would allow no other book to touch his treasured well-worn Bible, but permitted a flower to be placed upon it. In our contact with books, our contact with God’s Book is of ﬁrst importance. Other books should not come between us and it. Through it we learn to know Him Whom to know is life eternal. —G. J. J. n W St. Mark's choir announces the fol» lowing events in connection with the Sunday afternoon services of this month: December 14, Fernando Ger- mani, eminent Italian organist: Dec- ember 21, Handel's Messiah; Decem- ber 28, Christmas carol service. . Despite the fact that a drafty stage gave Mr. Fritz Kreisler considerable difﬁculty in keeping his instrument (an Antenius Stadivarius 1711) in tune, he gave his audience a splendid program at the St. Paul Auditorium, November 27. . . The Society for Advancement of Music in Palestine, of which Felix M. Warburg is honorary chairman, an- nounced that the proceeds of the last beneﬁt recital given by Ossip Gabri- lowitsch and Mischa Elman, amounte ing to over $10,000, will be spent for research in religious folk music, lec- tures on musical appreciation. train- ing of popular choruses and classes in chamber music. a The Senior Quartette of Augsburg sang for the Deaconess Auxiliary at St. Luke’s Church last Friday after- noon, December 5. Howard Halvor- sen also played a piano solo. a Ignace Jan Paderewski, a pianist, composer, patriot, and statesman, has been given the title, “king of pian— ists." He will appear as soloist with the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra in its eighth concert at Northrop Me- morial auditorium, Friday night, De- cember 12, in a program of Paderewv ski compositions. Thure W. Fredrickson, the organist of Hennepin M. E. church. this week will give the second of his series of three organ recitals. A similar series last season attracted considerable at- tention and revealed the young or- ganist and choirmaster as an organ virtuoso of rank. Thoughts Before Christmas By Emma CHRISTIANSEN In this mid-season of Thanksgiving praise and Christmas joy, our minds should be forcefully awakened to the blessings arising from a gracious heart. In this age of hurrying hither and thither, little thought is often given to the joy and peace of mind resulting from an appreciative soul. \Vhen gratitude is displayed, there is happiness and joy bestowed not only upon the giver but also upon the receiver of the thanks. We are possessed with an abundance of op- portunities and privileges, and these if properly received deserve our most sincere and heartfelt gratitude. But especially of what things should this season of the year remind us? First of all we should exalt and praise the Great Creator for our very consciousness—7hr the right of being a member of this great universe, and of being able to enjoy and partake of the manifold blessings instituted among men. Surely the right to ex- ist—life itself—is a glorious token of the Almighty’s love, and yet how often can we not say that our lives are ﬁlled with ingratitude. Let us “Make a joyful noise" because of life itself. Most of us also are indebted to our parents in a special Way; it may mean a great sacriﬁce for someone that we are enabled to be within these halls of learning today, and yet fre- quently the deserving thanks are for» gotten. Perhaps even tonight some home could be made exceedingly joy- ful by the arrival of a long awaited letter from the absent boy or girl. Such a trivial matter of appreciae tion on our part may wondroust transform a longing soul or a bur— dened heart. As we approach the season of Yule- tide, let us be mindful of the Supreme Gift that merits our utmost praise and gratitude. Too often the true spirit of Christmas joy and praise is replaced by a consideration of the material things and a resulting lack of thankfulness. Therefore, as we once again experience Christmas cheer, let us render due gratefulness to the Giver of all good and perfect gifts. Israel looked forward to the day of Jehovah as a day of deliverance, but mark the prophet’s message from the Lord, “Woe unto you that desire the day of Jehovah! . . . It is darlmese. and not light.” Surely, Jehovah longed to deliver His people and to visit them with joy and blessings, but He could not because of their impenit- ence and rebellion. (Amos 5:14»2’l). o Will the day of the Lord down with gladnus [or you? s a o In the path of obedience we often encounter contrary winds, but in the midst of storms we are comforted by the thought that we are in these dif- ﬁculties in obedience to the Master's will. He watches over us tenderly, and as of yore the troubled sea be- comes a calm when He enters our vessel. (Matthew 14:22-33). t Friend, the Master is near to still the ruﬁlcd sea. of your soul. a When the storms of life have' shat- tered our little barks, it is inﬁnitely sweet to hear the blessed invitation “Come unto me" from the Master of wind and wave as He raises us up from the deep. Almost as sweet to a Christian is the satisfaction of sounding forth this Gospel call to storm»tossed souls. Many have heard the call to service. (Matthew 11:28). a x t Does the missionary spirit stir your soul? a t a A man contemplating a nonstop ﬂight across the Atlantic, takes every precaution known to him and pre- pares to the best of his ability to make his craft air-Worthy so that the attainment of his goal may be rea— sonably certain. He does not depend on his own knowledge, merely, but seeks the advice of reliable experts. 1 Have you prepared for life’s non-slop flight with as much care? o t a To every Christian it is a glorious truth that Christ died, but His resur- rection is the crowning fact. It is not the dead Christ he warships, but the One who lives to give life to all. | CHAPEL CHALLENGES 7 *- At times it seems indeed that the forces of wickedness triumph over the cause of Christ, but the seed has been sown with faith in the Almighty. Presently the springtime of God's grace comes with the springing forth of the planted seed into glorious bloom—even in the midst of aﬂ'liction. Missionaries at home and abroad sul» stantiate this with their accounts of God’s working. o “Who can hinder Rim?" Job 9:12. too It was God who shot the door of the ark after Noah and his family had entered. God also keeps us se- cure against the storms of life in the ark of fellowship with Him, in His kingdom. {Genesis 7:16). a Do you depend on His kap— iny power? 0 a o How often have we not “toiled all night" without any evident results, spiritually speaking Happy indeed, would we count ourselves if we could have pulled with Simon on that ﬁsh» laden net on the lake of Genesoret. Nevertheless, it is our privilege to ex- perience much greater blessings through surrendering our wills to His and stepping out on His promises. (Luke 5:141). 0 Did any man ever fall when he set out in obedience and foilh in God to carry out His mission? I o a Voluntary separation from the Christian heritage of the past spells weakness for the present time and destruction for the future. The ten tribes of Israel tried this very thing and crumbled to dust. (Amos 6). o What does your spiritual heritage mean to you? o The plight of the physically blind is pathetic, but spiritual blindness is the greatest of all tragedies. No man would willingly ruin himself, but he cannot avoid it when Satan has rob- bed him of his spiritual vision. His only hope is the touch of the Mas- . o Echoes and Re-echoes December, 1900 Board and wood for November cost twenty-ﬁve cents a day. The receipts from the “Idun” pro- gram amounted to about $47.00. The total number of students at the school is now 155.

This volume is one of the latest ad- ditions to the theological library, but it has a real value for every indivi- dual student, because it aims to lead its readers to a real conception of the absolute certainty of God. It is a very practical discussion with no technical questions, and deals with the problems of thought as men and women of today are confronted with them. To the wavering mind it helps to establish a ﬁrm belief in man him- self, in the world. and in God. a The Hanan—Nash, Gee E., Dodd, Mead and Company, N. Y., 1929.

Chrbtensen Opens Lecture Series Hosea, Peal; and Book of Lamentations Studied Dr. B. M. Christensen opened a series of ten Wednesday evening stu- dies on the neglected books of the Bible at Augsburg Seminary on November 19. Hosea was the ﬁrst book considered. Micah, Psalms 120- 134, and Lamentations were studied at lectures following. The next study will be given December 17, on the book of Ezekiel, with “The Story of a Faithful Watchman" as the theme. “A Story of Love Betrayed and Restored" was the theme of Dr. Christenaen‘s study of the book of Hosea. Men will suﬁer to learn scien- tiﬁc facts, and the prophets had to suffer in order to be the vehicles of the revelation of God. Hosea, through the unfaithfuluess of his wife, learned that the deepest suffering is born only of love. He saw that God suffered because of man's unfaithful- ness, and that God is Love. In the study of Micah, the prophet was depicted as combining the love of Amos for justice with Hosea’s view of God’s redeeming love. It was a time of luxury and indulgence, as well as a time of great oppression Micah fought against social injustice with all his might, and looked upon the oppression of the poor as a great sin. He denounced sin, and pointed out that it must he confessed. He de- clared that salvation was not to come from the rich Ind mighty, but that the Saviour was to come from the loyly place oi Bethlehem. Psalms 120-134 have been called “The Song Book of the Pilgrims,” be- cause they are believed to have been sung by pilgrims going to Jerusalem These Psalms express the experiences of the soul. They picture the soul as hemmed in, and desirous of freedom. The soul can ﬁnd rest only in God. Help can come only from God. If you have learned to lift your soul up to God, you are really living. (Continued on page 4) Seniors In Education Write Unusual Exam Feeling that the usual array of examinations during a quarter's work does not suﬁiciently discover the latent abilities of the seniors, Prof. Adolph Paulson recently quizzed the education class in a most unusual way. The four students who evidenced the most profound store of knowledge in this test were: Mathilda Sageng with the highest score of 42 right out of 56; Leander Quanbeck, 39; Philip Morgan and Walter Hang, 38. Although the test was a general resume, it perhaps was also too par- ticular in many ways, for who could expect a bunch of football rowdies to know the outstanding authority on etiquette? What connection does a group of French students ave with America's greatest statist an'! One of the worst stickers was guessing America‘s woman champion tennis player, but who of the general sports readers are interested here, when she no longer is the "single" champion'! Considerable amusement was aroused by the answer to the inter- rogation. “What is pathology?” One student thought it sounded as though it might mean a study of fossils, but an aspiring scientist believed that ac- cording to the way "logy" 's defined in biology. the science of. it should mean an acquaintance with country roads. r @hrinthtan in the ﬁcart 3'11 is Christmas in the mansion, iﬂulc-lng ﬁres anh silken frnrks; 311 is (ﬂhristmaa in the rnilagr. mother's ﬁlling little anrko.

Anonymous Ibsen Drama Studied By Delta Sigma Chi Henrik Ibsen's drama, “The Master Builder," was studied by the Delta Sigma Chi Literary Society at its meeting held Thursday, December 4. A review of the dramatist's life was given by Arthur Amundsen. Esther Opseth and Helen Vi'allin reported on the plot of the play, and Mildred Lar- son discussed its philosophy. Musical numbers were furnished by Malvard Johnson and Neil Tangen. Irving Quanbeck, chairman of the program committee, was in charge of the dis- cussion.

The Choral Society will make its ﬁrst appearance at the all-school Christmas Party. Mr. C. A. Hedberg Lectures At “Club” Prison Evangelist Gives Students Copies Of Poem On Tuesday evening. December 2. the Boarding Club was host to Mr. C. A. Hedberg, an active prison evan- gelist. Mr. Hedberg gave a concise and stirring talk on the true condition of life in the larger cities.

The group of books on exhibit at present covers the ﬁeld of athletics. Among the outstanding books are, Foot Boll, Technique and Tactics, by Robert Zuppe, Coaching by Knute Rockne, and You and Brisket Bull by H. C. Carlson. The titles of the ﬁrst two Volumes adequately reveal their contents. The book by Carlson is subdivided into a treatise on the spiri- tual side of athletics and an explana— tion of the technique of basketball. Other books cover baseball and win- ter and water sports. The library received two very in teresting books as gifts from Rev. and Mrs. C. H. Quanbeck of Madagascar. One of the books, Children of Mudd- gascur by Rev. R. Griﬁ‘cth, is a vivid, intimate description of child-life in that country. The other, l'llrldugiml‘ar, is a travel lecture by Harold A. Ridg- well. Rev. and Mrs. Quanbeck, who are in active missionary work in Ma- dagascar, are both Augsburg Alumni. A. W. C. Entertained By Dr. Christensen The Augsburg \Vriters‘ Club was entertained by Dr. B. M. Christensen at his apartment last Monday. After the regular business session articles were submitted by Agnes Freij, Lawrence Bueide, Luthard and Manley Gjerde and Maurice llelland. These were informally discussed and criticized by the group. The members then spent an enjoy- able time inspecting Dr. Chl'istensen's interesting collection of books and pictures. The Writers’ Club members have had the null especially in mind in writing articles or prose and poetry which have been read at the meetings. NOTE Beginning with this issue a new feature will be added to the Echo. This will consist of a series of let- ters from alumni pastors who have gone out into the great work in the Master's vineyard. These will be published from time to time to the end that the bonds existing be- iween Augsburg and her alumni and friends may be strengthened and be made more intimate. The ﬁrst letter comes to the Echo and its readers from Rev. Homer Johnr son of Barronett, Wisconsin. Rev. Johnson graduated from Augsburg College in 1926 and from the Sem- inary in 1929. His article appears on page three. ’——__.

Led by the passing of George Kole- sar and the sensational open ﬁeld running of Captain Madson the Aug gies were able to come through with a tie game. Fumbles were costly for the Augsburg eleven, resulting in ul~ timate touchdowns for the Lutherites just at periods when the Auggies seemed destined to march to the other end zone. Luther scored early in the ﬁrst period when a number of line plays were successful for good gains and a line plunge carried the ball over the last two yards. The remainder of the ﬁrst half was played on quite even terms though the Auggies opened up an aerial attack in ﬁnal moments which almost tied the score. A long pass Kolesar to Knutsun brought the ball to the 15~yard line, but time pre- vented another attempt to put it over. Early in the third period Madson grabbed a pass from Kolesar and scanlpered the remaining twenty-ﬁve yards to tie the score. George's place kick was good to give Augsburg a one point lead. Things seemed to be pret- ty much in favor of the Auggies until late in this same period a fumble deep in Auggie territory put Luther in position to score. Almost the same thing happened in the opening of the T. K. ELLEFSON 2120s2122 RIVERSIDE AVE.

Captain Ernest Madson has been on the Augsburg squad for four years and for the past three seasons has been one of the kading open ﬁeld threats in the Conference. Jens Midtaune has been a regular for the past two seasons and has proven to be a dynamic ﬁgure on the football ﬁeld. Size has been much of a handicap to him. Harry Bachus played but one year and that was checked almost entirely by injuries. However, his ﬁghting spirit pulled him through to ﬁnish the season in great fol-n1.

He carried the ball from the kick-off past mid-ﬁeld on a sensational sprint to place the Auggies in position to score. A few line plays placed the ball on the two yard line where Olson jumped through a hole in the left side of the line for the second Auggie score. A few moments later Madson took an- other pass from Kolesar and dodged and jumped through 65 yards of broken ﬁeld to tie the score. The last two attempts for extra points went wide of the bars.

Their only hope and faith was in God. They trusted God when it was most trying it) have faith in Him, for they knew that in Him there was shelter from the storms of life. Fin- ally they landed on a “stern and a rock-bound coast," but only to ﬁnd themselves stranded in a wilderness inhabited by savages. Yet they were able to otfer up a thanksgiving to God and to worship Him. How much more should we then worship and thank God for His un- limited mercy and kindness; we who are protected by His merciful love'.’ Surely, we should not only remember God once a yur in our annual Thanksgiving, but remember Him al- ways. in every phase and walk of life. —A. 0.

He has remarked that the outlook for the year’s work is much more promising than that of last year’s, because there is a greater turn-out and there are more exper- ienced men.

Large Combined Choir Feature Of SerVIce (Continued from page 1) The confession simpliﬁed worship, because the medieval church had out- done the Pharisees and scribes in ceremonies. Luther had almost killed himself performing them. Prof. Roth concluded by pointing out that the confession has had a great inﬂuence in all Protestant churches. This is because it has em- phasiaed a life in Christ. Justiﬁca- tion is only through faith. Dr. Christensen Speaks At Central Lutheran (Continued from page 1) teaches the inadequacy of human righteousness to contribute anything toward the requirement of divine per» faction. The confession teaches that Christ’s provision for justiﬁcation is through faith alone. Herein lies the glory and simplicity of the Christian Gas» pel as restored by Luther."

However, it seems that if the mat» ter is given suﬁicient serious con- sideration, a deﬁnite solution may be found for this perplexing cir- cumstance. If no one seems to care seriously for any reasonable reform, it must be that everyone, deep down in his heart, is more than satisﬁed with the boarding club and does not feel the need of any drastic change. The Augsburg Boarding Club is ﬁnanced by its members, and there is no proﬁt for anyone but them. Mrs. Johnson admits that she would like to prepare a sumptuous banquet to put before the students every day, but it is the will of the students that the price of board he kept where it is, so she cannot. However, if any student is seen straggling about the campus in an undernourished condition, he (or she) should be directed up to the club Where steps will be taken to feed the individual in such a way that the pristine robustness of his physique may be restored.

The main feature will be a minia- ture golf course built in the basement out of materials from the attic. If you don’t make a par score, it prob— ably won't be your fault,—blame the links. It isn’t skill that counts, it's luck. Some of the handicaps are rain water pipes and wash boards. Knock» ing a ball over a bridge built of corn ﬂake boxes and evading a history book, will take patience. The W. S. G.

Refreshments will be served up» stairs and there will be other attrac- tions for those who are waiting to play golf. Oletta Wald, president of the W. S. G. A., is general chairman. She is assisted by the executive council which consists of Telma Leeland, Clara Oudal, Fern Federson, Mathil- da Sageng, and Adeline Rasmussen.

Hagen President Of Mission Study Group Russian Situation To Be Studied This Year Holger Hagen was elected presi- dent of the Mission Study Group at its meeting Nov. 5. The other oﬁicers are: Lars Goldal, vice president; Ruth Hagen, secretary, and Edwin Peterson, treasurer. The Mission Group has decided to center its study on Russia this year, in an endeavor to get s better under- standing of the Russian situation. The history of Russia will be con- sidered ﬁrst. Outside speakers will address the group from time to time. Edwin Peterson and Julius Her— munslie were named on the program committee. The next meeting will be held next Wednesday evening, Nov. 26. at 7:00 P. M. Anyone interested in the study of Russia is cordially invited to attend the Mission Group meetings. Old And New Auggies Pose For Mr. Larson Campus And Gridiron Form Scenes Of Moving Pictures Motion pictures of the Augsburg faculty, students and alumni have been taken by Mr. Herman Larson of the Larson studios. These pictures will be shown at Augsburg soon. Members of the faculty and student body were photographed as they left the chapel service. During homecom- ing pictures were taken of the joint chorus, various campus scenes, the oldest alumnus present, Rev. Arntzen, and the president of the Alumni As- sociation, the Alumni Teachers' As- sociation, and the Student Society. Seventy-ﬁve feet of ﬁlm were used during the Augsburg-St. Paul Luther football game. One hundred feet of ﬁlm have been donated by Mr. Larson, and one hundred feet have been purchased by the Students’ Society. Mr. Larson promises to show these pictures for the students, at the same time show— ing pictures which he took during his visit in Sweden and Denmark last summer. Did You Know That— There are eight Roosevelt High school graduates attending Augs- burg this year? Kenneth Sydness teaches drums at Princeton, Minnesota? A niece of Einar Hoidale is at- tending Augsburg? Ernest Olson has been Swedish navy? A girl born in China of Swedish and Danish ancestry is now studying at Augsburg, a Norwe- gian-American institution? Otto Rortvedt has never had a ride in an Austin? “Si” Mclby still has his famous grey sweater? Prof. Paulson enlisted in the Navy during the late war'! John Kolesar, '30, was oﬂ'ered the position of basketball coach at Hamline University? Six members of the Augsburg faculty have studied in foreign universities? The Senior quartet sang at the Bloomian (Hiram) high school on Armistice Day? The Gram-nu Eta Pi, Augsburg's most exclusive literary society, has been revived after a lapse of four years? in the Fifth Year As Coach Dr. C. L. Eklund ﬁfth year this fall as football coach at Augsburg. Taking over the reins in 1926, Augsburg's initial year in completed his the State Conference, he has done some remarkable work with a very limited squad each year. With the exception of the season just past his teams have come through above average and often near the top. In 1928 he perhaps turned out his best team, which tied for the championship. In the following year the Auggies came along undefeated until midseason when injuries to his scarce material cost the remaining games. This year he was not only handicapped by a small squad, but also by inexperienced men. Dr. Eklund is without doubt one of the best coaches in the Northwest. He was considered as a candidate for the post Vacated by Dr. C. W. Spears at the University a? Minnesota last spring. Besides being a great. coach he is well thought of throughout the state conference and idolized by his men. Final Tryouts Are Held For Glee Club Eight New Members Chosen To Complete Organization After rehearsing for a period of almost six weeks, ﬁnal tryouts of the Glee Club were held last week and twenty of Augsburg’s best rnale sing- ers were chosen by the director, Prof. Opseth, to constitute this year’s or- ganization. From the ﬁrst elimina- tion until the ﬁnal tryouts over twen- ty-ﬁve men had been working for a place in the club. “The outlook for a successful year is very promising," said Prof. Opr seth, “and if the men will work hard there is no reason why the organiza- tion of this year should be inferior to those of the past." There are twelve veterans from last year and eight new members. Olaf Helland has been elected presi- dent of the organization for this year. Julius Hermunslie, treasurer: Clay- ton Morgan, secretnry; Lawrence Bueide, librarian, and Warren Hanr sen, director of marching. The ac» companist will be Howard Halvorsen The following men have been picked for the Glee Club: First bass: Malvin Rossiug Julius Hermunslic Lawrence Bueide H. O. Egan—son Anker Harbo Srrond bass: Markus Halling Urcell Johnson Warren Hansen Dr. Eklund Completes Ten Thousand Lutherans Throng To NUMBER 4 City Auditorium for Mass Meeting Stalf Members Plan For December Dial Societies To Be Charged For Pledges Of Members The Dial staff met November 12 to make plans for the next issue of the magazine, which will be published sometime in December. It was decid- ed that the literary societies, who sponsor the Dial, will be held respons- ible for the amount of money which their subscriptions should furnish. Each member of a society is respons- ible for two subscriptions. The December Dial will be the fourth issue to be published, the ﬁrst one having appeared in the spring of 1929. This literary publication is made up largely of essays, poems, narrar tions, and descriptive sketches con- tributed by college students and a14 umni. Contributions should be turned in to the literary editors, Olctta Wald and Manley Gjerde or to Mathilda Sagcng, editor»in-chief. Prof. Paulson Tells 0f Naval Experiences Speaks In Dining Hall On Armistice Day Armistice Day was observed this year not only by the dismissal of classes, but also by a program given in the' Dining Hall Tuesday noon, November ll. Mr. Paulson, one of the new faculty members, re- lated to the students a few of his in- teresting experiences as a “dry land sailor.” He was stationed at the Great Lakes camp, which was the largest camp of its kind in the world. He claimed that the only battle he ever fought was the bitter battle of the ﬂu. Although there were many inten- sely interesting experiences reviewed, one of the outstanding was Mr. Paulv son's impression of the sailors' band. On review days, as the thousands of men all clad in white gathered on a single ﬁeld, the effect was such as one receives an a bright wintry (law with its dazzling snow. As the v inus regiments passed in review, their re- (Continued on page 3) Appetite vs. Economy Recently Mrs. Johnson, anxious to please the members of the boarding club. asked the pad ple at each table in the dining hall to submit a menu for a whole day's cvch meals. The results of Mrs. Johnson‘s plea, distressing as they were, showed an amusing inconsistency in the cravings of the gastronomic systems of the club's hundred members. If the menus were fol- lowed, the cost of board would be doubled and all the near-by lunch counters would be serving a bum- per crop of customers between meals. It was a surprise to ﬁnd a de- mand from a table of football players for fruit cocktail for dinv net; and how a table full of weak- looking math sharks had the auda. city to ask for a dinner that,_ to speak ﬁguratively, would choke an elephant, is beyond human com‘ prehension.

Dr. Roth, in his address, pointed out that even though the Augsburg Confession gave religious and political liberty, it was essentially a confession of faith. The Lutheran Church is just as legal 3 church as the Roman Church. The Augsburg Confession brought nothing new; it restored only the old.

It is uttered with even less feeling than that with which a telephone operator repeats a number. On the other hand, the deepest gratitude often remains unexpressed be- cause words seem to limit that which we wish to convey. Be- tween these two is the gratitude which we voice sincerely. How our standard of gratitude changes as we grow older! As children it did not take much to bring a delighted “Thank you” from our lips. Perhaps we did not say it as often as we do now, but it was certainly sincere. Our joy in the act of receiving probably said more than our words. Now we expect service and complain loudly if it is not promptly given. We notice only the times when the “go” sign says “stop”; when a long freight train detains us at a crossing; when the street car is not waiting for us. We forget that the “stop” sign said “go”; that the crossing was clear; that the street car was waiting, only today. We remember the hottest days and the coldest days, the driest months and the wettest months, and especially the scanty years, blaming Providence for them. On the pleasant days and during the fruitful years, we boast of our self-sufﬁciency. When we are eating our Thanksgiving dinner, let us recall the following incident from the experiences of a famine relief worker in northern China. It is only one example of conditions that could be duplicated in Russia and in India. A mother and her child, both of them terribly under-nourished, were found tottering along a road, bound for nowhere in par- ticular. The mother accepted a package of crushed beans and barley, but declined money. Later on her body was found in a gulley, her daughter standing wonderingly by her side. The little one had received the food. The mother had died. Luiham (Horde llnllzcl' llnci-n l lnrson iilnilys noun! )1 Hui-m All!!!» F l ‘l‘ilmn Lm-Innd —G. J. J. We noticed while Watching the Armistice day parade that the Salvation Army and the Boys Scouts drew more applause than either the Army veterans or the Marines. THE PRESENCE Some time ago a writer of not so little prestige expounded in the columns of one of our magazines on the “necessity of a new religious force.” He was seeking for a panacea to cure the mani- fold ills of the present day. Social disorder, political upheaval, economic misery—all, he thought, might be assuaged if man could discover some new and powerful force, a power so potent that all nations would acknowledge it, and bowing to its principles, would thereby ﬁnd peace and prosperity once more. Can it be possible that the Force which has been the guiding light in the lives of so many men for these 1900 years, has be- come so impotent that even learned men are unaware of Its pres ence? Has Jesus Christ been entombed again, to rise no more? Or have we who call ourselves Christians been backward in tell- ing the glad tidings—in witnessing for the living Christ? Shame~ fully we must admit the latter to be the case. His power in the lives of believers is as great today as ever, for He has said, “Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world." But in the business of witnessing for Him.—in that we have fallen short. So it is with sincere pleasure that we commend efforts like those of The Christian Writers’ Club of Brooklyn, N. Y., which, by means of its book, “The Presence”, strives to bring a “little treasure of testimony concerning Christ and what He means to His people in the various walks of life." He who reads this tes- timony cannot but be convinced of the all-pervading power of the Prescnce. Would it not be a blessing—yielding enterprise to undertake a similar work of witnessing for the Master at Augsburg? Surely the Presence has become a living reality in many lives. Shall we . . . . ., be ashamed or slothful in wttnessmg for C. A” ’30- We are getting so broad-minded that we are forgetting to concentrate. ing, 14, at the fourth sym- phony concert. Mr. V'erbrugghen presented old familiar Italian favorites and gradu- ally led on to music more novel and strange. The orchestra played Ros- sini’s “William Tell". Jascha Schwarz- mann, the new solo player in the cello section of the orchestra, led his sec- tion in this composition. Ruggiero Ricci rehearsed with Mr. Verbrugghen for three days before the concert. Friday night he seemed as one of the orchestra. He played his Mendelssohn concerto with the greatest ease. Ruggiero was recalled many times, and when presented with a tribute of roses by Mrs. Carlyle Scott, the little Ricci played another number with orchestra ' soc/bill’s Delta Sigma Chi Five new members were initiated into the Delta Sigma Chi on Thurs day evening, November 16, at a meet- ing held in the men’s lounge. They were Viola Blackhurst and Percy Downing, of Gray Eagle, Cliﬂ'ord Johnson of Lonsdale, Malvard John- son of Newman Grove, Nebraska, and Neil Tangen'ot Minneapolis. The society was not perhaps what these had imagined it to be, for every- thing was done backwards. Appear- ing in backward dress, they bade all the members “goodbye.” Just to be different, the new members were served refreshments immediately upon arrival, and they pronounced it a most “different” lunch. Realizing the seriousness of the oc- casion, the newcomers very humbly donned their ’society pins after a great deal of Ceremony. They were then given the opportunity to show just how much they knew about the campus and its properties. After taking their vows, they were accepted as full-ﬂedged members. While lunch was being served, Irving Quanbcck, chairman of the program committee, outlined the plans for the year. The ﬁrst quarter will be spent in studying Ibsen and some of his plays. Pi Alpha Theta The Pi Alpha Theta Literary So- ciety held a regular meeting on Thursday evening, November 6, in room 27. The new members were told the society’s purpose and its work. After the business meeting, lunch was served at East Hall. Gladys Oudal and Gordon Thies have been accepted as new members. Press Club Adeline Rasmussen was elected president of the Press Club and Dorothy Paulson the secretary and treasurer for the coming year. The purpose of this club is to fur- nish the home town newspapers with information concerning the school activities of various students. Val» uable experience is gained in doing this work. Students who journalism are asked to hand in their are interested in names to Dorothy Paulson. We have discovered certain fresh— men who think they know. We thought so, too. The seniors look wise. “They should correct that error." s We sometimes wonder if the term “Literary Society" at Augsburg isn’t, after all, the right name—Jar the wrong thing. l CHAPEL CHALLENGES I Imagine yourself building an ark as Noah did, for from any body of water! Foolish indeed, it seems. Nevertheless, Noah obeyed God, tak- ing up his "cross" of ridicule, and was justiﬁed through faith. In like manner God’s plan of salvation has always seemed foolish to human rel- soning. The blessed fact remains: Christ, the cruciﬁed Redeemer, is the ark of our salvation. (Genesis 6: 11-22). a Are you willing to “for rs-.__. preach [or the lake a] your faith in and obedience to God! I o s The life of an individual might be well-nigh perfect, outwardly, and prompted by noble attitudes, yet if it lacks that vital contact with Christ, born out of a personal experience and knowledge of His grace, it is a failure. (Mark 10:17»22). a Can you «1170111 to turn away from Christ because of the erecting conditions a] eter- nal life? s n a Love begets love, according to the old proverb. Hence, we can readily understand that “Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us," kindling the sacred ﬂame in our hearts. Through these kindled hearts He graciously manifests His inﬁnite love. (I John 417-12). or Have you yielded your entire being to the gentle sway of divine love? s a :- “Seek Jehovah and ye shall live." This was the clarion call of the pro- phet to backsliding Israel. If you look about you, you will see that this same admonition needs to be sounded out in no uncertain tones today. Men are trying to get along without God in spite of their hearts’ yearning for Him. (Amos 511-14). a: ll'hy seek to supress God-given desire? a a a that The Master's blessing makes quan- tities that seems utterly inadequate sufficient when they are left at His disposal. (John 6:5-13). : Let Him bless your spare moments or whatever you may have to give to His cause. *- It is hard for the "old Adam" to forgive and forget a sustained wrong —great or small. And it is harder still to go the WHOLE way in trying to set things aright with the offending brother. This, however, is positive forgiveness, the only kind that brings genuine satisfaction. Most of our actions would be different if we fol- lowed the Mastcr in this respect. (Matthew 18:17-26). 0 Are you williny to loss night a] self in order that you may follow cum truly! a o 0 Jesus' statement, “My meat is to do the will of Him that sent me," seems paradoxical indeed, but it harmouim beautiftu with natural laws. Jesus lived a strong, eﬂectivs life, not only because He was God, but because He was continually in harmony with the Father’s will. Love, the essence of God’s will, was not merely ideal in Christ, but practical. His forgiving attitude proves that. (John 4:27-88). a . Do your activities will strength .a. to your character? Jesus was a lost boy to His parents, but in reality He was ﬁnding His way and rightful place in life. He was associating with those who were searching for truth and with them He gloried in the light of the Word. Scholarship without knowing the Way amounts to about the same as the situation of a young man who is “all dressed up with no place to go." But this need not be. In our midst walks the One who is the Way and the Truth and the Life. (Luke 2:41-51). a Are you permitting Him to reveal the Truth to you that you may know the way? t a v There is but one entrance to the kingdom of God—the Door—Jesus Christ. We are prone to try to enter by way of our works, but that is futile. Christ has done that which is necessary to assure us entrance into and part in His kingdom. (Gene- sis 6:16). t The Door is waiting for you to come. t The palsied man really was in need of Jesus, and with the men who car- ried him, bad faith enough to over- come all hindrances in his Way to the Great Physician. (Luke 5:17-26). Campus Notes Classes were excused on Armistice Day, Nov. 11. Holidays aren’t hard to take, are they? t Hubert and Elwin Dvorachek spent the week-end at their home in Gray Eagle. t A great proportion of the student body feel relieved now that the list showing the class of each student is down from the bulletin board. Many found they were a year behind them— selves, some more than that. a Harold Olson, ’33, and Lavern Lind, ’33, visited their homes in Cannon Falls last week—end. a Miss Elsie Lokken, ’30, who is new teaching at Lindstrom, Minn, was a visitor at school last week-end. t Have you noticed the diﬁerence in the Senior jackets of this year com- pared to those of last year’.’ The class of ’30 had more of an indoor jacket while the seniors have what could be called an outdoor jacket. Ac- cording to this, it looks as if the seniors plan on spending most of their time inside. a Miss Alice Melbye, '30, who has been home for two weeks’ vacation, has resumed her teaching at Lake Park, Iowa. s The ﬁnal football pep fest was held Friday evening, Nov. 14. “Muggs” Skurdalsvold gave a speech and the Istudents were led in yele and songs. New Books During the last few years, our library has been inestimably im- proved, not only by re—arrangement of books and by building improve- ments. but also by the addition of a great number of the leading texts in all ﬁelds of literature. It has been felt that the student body should know of the outstanding additions, so this column shall endeavor to present re- views and criticisms which will make every student better acquainted with the worth of our library. It is im- possible that every new book should be included, but only those which are deemed the most reliable and instruc- tive will be considered. The following are new books: t “Encyrlopedia of Religion. and Ethics." Edited by James Hastings. Charles Sribner‘s Sons, N. Y., 1928. This set has been characterized thus: “An effective instrument for the exploration of the world's thought on the things of the spirit.” This en- cyclopedia is very comprehensive and contains articles on all the religion! of the world and on all the great sys- tem: of ethics. It aims to present articles on every religious belief or custom, and on every ethical move- ment, every philosophical idea. every moral practice. Such persons and places as are famous in the history of religion and morals will be included- Every subject is treated very elabor— ately by a competent author. The work is very scholarly and worth the consideration of every student. (Continued on page 3)

The ﬁnal summary gave the winners 8] points to their op- ponents' 43. The freshmen started scoring from the very beginning when Delmar Hed- lund won ﬁrst place in the 100 yard dash. The sophomore boys began a game battle and succeeded in tying for ﬁrst place in the egg-throwing contest. In tossing the shot-put. Osterhus, Retrum and Hedlund re- ceived no competition from the sopho- mores. Only once did the sophomore boys take an event from the fresh- men, namely in the relay race when Arno Peterson played the part of Nurmi. Not only does the freshman class have many boys who are athletes, but the girls are probably just as active. Perhaps the most. interesting event of the afternoon was the rooster- chase at Murphy Square. Although the chase began at this place, Ruth Oalcrhus succeeded in capturing the rooster in a garage across the street. Other events won by the freshman girls were the ball-throwing contest and the three-legged race. The so- phomore girls won the potato race and the short dash. No ﬁeld meet is complete without a free-{nr-all and this year also Mr Flagstad made arrangements for such an event. Six of the best men from each class prepared themselves for the event. The signal was given and the battle began. The sophs fought hard. but within a period of a few minutes ﬁve freshmen remained in the ring while all the sophs had been earned nut. This was the deciding event of the afternoon. The ofﬁcial starter was Norman Flagstad. and Otto Rortvedt served as judge. wit Augsburg Fohs and Pins Special this week $ 1 .00 Lutheran Free Church Publishing Co. 264 Cedar Annuo.

November I, delivering an address on Christian Liberty and Educational Freedom. His text was John 8:22. “And ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." Rousseau once made this statement: “A man is born free, but. is everywhere in bonds.” The first part of this state- ment may not be absolutely true. but the last part is true in every sense. Man is bonded socially and he is bonded physically. Front one point of View we might say that history is nothing more or less than a record of man’s everlasting struggle to free himself from social bondage. What is the liberty of one generation may be the bondage of the next. However. man is not bonded intellectually Man is spiritually in bonds. When Jesus told the Jews. who had begun to believe in him. “And ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free," they began to doubt him, saying, “We are Abraham's seed. and were never in bondage to any man: How sayest thou. Ye shall be made free?" Christians are in bondage also. There are many things from which they most free themselves after they have become Christians. For one thing. they must obtain the forgive— ness of past sins. One of the chief difficulties of a Christian is the fail- ure to live up to Christian ideals. Paul was handicapped by this dilﬁcul- ty. "The good I would. I do not." Christians may also be hampered by Weizmann. rutle i life process. sea and Wilhelm Petterson. both of whom were formerly connected with Augsburg. Eleanor Jerstad, soprano. Norman Barlindhaug, tenor; and Ralph Magelsaen. baritone, were the guest soloists. After the music festival. an in- formal reception was held at,‘ the school. After refreshments had been served. a program of piano music was rendered by Katharine Sverdrup. Gertrude Vogt. Howard Halvorson and Arnold Oren. The Augsburg Gospel Quartette had charge of the evening service at Trinity church. Friends Give Dinner For J. Skordalsvold Seventy-seventh Birthday Anniversary Celebrated On Thursday, Oct. 30. a compli mentsry dinner was given at the Cltiaeli‘s Club by friends in honor of .l. J. Shardalmld. Augsburg alumnus.

Team were given as follows: “Shards-lave“ an a Promoter of Pro- hibition"— . Agar. "W as Ctr-Worker at Aogb burl Publishing Boon"—Dr. B. Mal-in. 6.0. .- There is only one way in which man can become free and that is through the truth, and the truth is Jesus. “I am the way and the life and the truth." In addition to Professor Hendrick- son's address there were special mu- sical numbers by Prof. Adolph Paul- son and the senior quartet. Rev. Morgan Honored By St. Luke’s Church Celebration Marks Twenty Years Of Active Service Rev. and Mrs. Claus Morgan cele‘ brated their twentieth year of service at St. Luke‘s Lutheran Church last Sunday.

Kenneth Lower and Kristofer Hagen entertained the student body and alumni with musical selections in the dining hall. At the business meeting Miss Sol- veig Morgan, ’26, president, reported that it had been the aim of the group during the past year to carry out a threefold plan. Their aims were to encourage the desirable type of stu- dents to come to Augsburg. to help the Augsburg Placement Bureau in placing Augsburg graduates. and to adopt a ﬁling system through which exchanges could be made for readings, orations. plays. operettas. and other material which had been found use- ful in presenting high school proA grams. Miss Estelle Brenden gave a short talk on operettns and music in the high schools. Miss Ellen Gynild spoke brieﬂy on what to do between the acts of a program. and Miss Bertha Johan son talked on the model high school party.

NOVEMBER 6 1930 Homecoming Booklet Is Published By Students This year Augsburg added a new feature to the homecoming festivities which was much appreciated and cm joyed by both students and alumni. This was the Homecoming Pamphlet. a souvenir program published by the student body. The booklet is edited by Lawrence Bueide. Each article in the pamphlet is ﬁlled to capacity with inspiration. high hopes. and praises of me Alma Mater. The ideals of Augsburg are so clearly expressed that they cannot be mistaken nor ignored. The introduction includes an article entitled “0n Planning for Homecom- ing” by Mildred Larson. director of social activities. in which planning is spoken of as being as delightful as expecting company. A complete prov gram of events appears in the fore- part of the book. “Looking Backward. an article by Prof. J. S. Melby. brieﬂy reviews the history of the school and states in twofold purpose; to train for the ministry, and to train teachers for service in the public schools. Logically and appropriately follow- ing is President Sverdrup's “Looking Forward". The president states that the past is secure but that the present is in our hands. and that we let the vision of the future determine the at- titude of the present. Miss Gerda Mortensen traced the history of Homecoming since its or- igin in 1927 to the present. and told of the added events and features of the celebration each year. The article was entitled “Echoes of Former Homecomings". Mrs. Olga Torvik. matron, writes of the friendliness and spiritual fel- lowship which prevails at Augsburg. calling it a “homelike” school. George Melby tells how Augsburg can become a home to the student. Others have similar experiences in ﬁnding that here one can [inc and not merely exist.

A spirit of fellowship, loyalty, and enthusiasm was manifested at all occasions. Many of the alumni as well as faculty members testiﬁed to the fact that homecoming is a source of inspiration to them. How much more cannot we who are students say that it is the means of great inspiration to us. Meeting alumni and friends who have gone out into the world and have been successful in their various ﬁelds becomes a challenge to us. It impresses us more forcibly with the fact that we. too, soon will have to take our place in active work. Whether we will be successful or not depends entirely upon ourselves. When a senior, one comes to the conclusion that college educa- tion would be more successful if one could be a senior during one's whole college career. This is, of course, impossible but we can, at least, have the attitude of seniors throughout Seniors cannot put things off until the next year. Everything must be done, and done well, too, if one expects to proﬁt by it. Lessons are not prepared for the professors or teachers but for oneself. Everything is done with the idea that it is going to help in one‘s work the next year. Preparation for life and work is the para- mount interest. Many of the alumni made this remark, “Don’t think that you are studying hard while in college, because you will have to study a great deal more when you are out of college and working." Is not this a challenge for us to do our best while we are in school? We all want to be successful, so why not prepare for success while we are yet in college? —M. S. CHAPEL To those of us who wish that we were not so taken up with the trivialities of life that we do not take time to enrich our inner vision, the chapel hour is a welcome period of our day. As pointed out in a recent chapel talk: to those of us who have recognized its holy ground, it has become a sacred place. If each student at Augsburg were to tell what chapel meant to him, we might have answers as varied as the different per- sonalities of our students would permit. Would they be disap- pointing? A Christian school makes no apology for its emphasis upon the unseen, the spiritual, and the eternal. At chapel time that emphasis is very particular. No one can have missed it at Augs~ burg. But to have merely recognized the emphasis is not sufﬁcient. We must come to chapel as individuals. I must sing the songs. The Word of God must be read to me. I must pray the Lord‘s Prayer, not merely repeat it in thoughtless unison with others. If chapel in to you a dreary hour, if you would rather sing “Sunny Side Up” than "Rock of Ages, Cleft for Me,” you have not yet received the beat that Augsburg can give to you. —G. J. J. COURTESY By courtesy we do not mean that personiﬁcation of polite manners who goes about with no hat, bright yellow gloves, a wrist watch. spots, a cane, and a swagger. His polished actions fairly cry, “Behold my culture i" ﬁrst prince of "dude-dom." He is, by indisputable right, the A courteous person is concious of the existence of other peo- ple and knows that their rights his own pleasures. sometimes take precedence over Courtesy is a little less of self. Would it be courteous to linger in the hall after the chapel bell has run? The dude tells me that it is correct to be late, so I enter at about the middle of the second stanza of the ﬁrst hymn. It adds to my prominence to disturb a pew full of people. Coming late to a class could not possibly be anyone’s con- cern but my own. Opening and shutting the door and scraping a chair will not disturb the lecturer, nor will a whispered aside to the person seated next to me. A teacher is merely a part of the furniture of an institution, not to be respected. Personal corrections are made from personal animosity to me. The more I can “get away with”, the better I like him. There might be even a remote suggestion of courtesy in a well- prepared lesson, but courtesy is not a part of my curriculum. Nevertheless, I expect to get a gentleman’s grade. —G. J. J. Chapel Challenges “1 am the bread of life," said Je- sus. Evidently then, in order to have life, we “must eat the ﬂesh of the Son of man and drink His blood.” With the disciples of old many will say, “This is a hard saying," and wonder whether or not they have made a mistake in deciding to follow Jesus. The cross we must bear secms too heavy for many people. (John 6). 0 Have you taken up your cross to follow Him! Il’hilhm' othcrwiar.’ . Whether God speaks to us from the burning bush or by the “still, small voice" in our moments of medita- tion or worship, wc feel the oven whelming need of taking oﬁ' our shoes, like Moses. Whether in chapel or in church, we stand on holy ground, facing serious issues of life-long signiﬁcance. (Exodus 311-7). a Have you rcmowd your shoes of in- diﬂrrrncc amI antagmiinm.’ . hovel—Sinners are called the sons of God and that by God Himself!— What seems humanly absurd, through Christ is divinely possible.- (1 John 3:1). . Ix the yl/I nf (hr Father‘s love yunrx.’ o God, who is the essence of love, has often had to chastise His people. As of old, so also today is heard the sad complaint: “Yet ye have not re- turned unto me, saith Jehovah.” (Amos 4). 0 Have your trials and «arrows lirmlyhl ynu closer to God? o Christ frequented the places of suf- fering and need, never failing to bring help to those who looked to Him. We avoid those places. (John 511-9). . Do the great need in the world about you and the Master‘s love can- Kit'llhl you to unselﬁsh service! a We have but one altar—Golgatha. and but the one priesHesus, who went forth and placed Himself on the altar of God's justice as the atone- ment of our sins. Many trust in man-made righteousness. Praise God! that of Christ is sufﬁcient. a "Lot on hold fast the can/easion 0/ our hope that it waver not: for He is faithful that promised." (Heb. 10:23). 0 Every man, standing at the cross- road, really wants to choose the right way. If he is not sure which way he should go, he will usually stop to consider and to ascertain what i: right. Knowing the way, he will without fail choose it forthwith. ‘iplritually speaking, man does not always do this. In the spiritual realm he is backward. Other ways than the right look so very attractive to him and no he allows hlmulf to drift along. Haw you the courage to choose the right according to your convic- tions! Where are you bound? 0 The open Bible is here. On this foundation Luther reared an ever- lasting monument to the glory of God’s saving grace. On it he found- ed his own life, having found that his sins were atoned and he was jus- tiﬁed by faith. (John 1:8). a Have you permitted the Truth to set you free? Is your lilo founded on “the Word"—Christ Himself?

Dr. Theodore Blegen Lectures 0n Norway (Continued from page 1) "rugby" and boating are very popu- lar, but football is a yet unknown in Norway, and yel l are not common as in America. The root- of the Norwegian people lie deep in the soil and in the past. The same family often keeps a “gaard” for centurion. This gives them a feeling of stability and per- haps helps to foster the sense of leisure which is more prevalent there than here. Much time is spent in reading good literature. Many ordi- nary men have ﬁne libraries contain- ing the works of such authors as Rol- vaag, O’Neil, Dreiuer. Carlyle, Whit- man, and Twain. A favorite Amer- icln book in Norway in "Main Street". The people consider it a true picture of American life. Many distorted ideas of America are brought in by sensational stories, wild west movies, and stirring news articles of robberies and murders. The Norwegian mental alertness is discernible not only in their literary interest, but in their conversations which often take on a tone of dis- agreement and imperlonality coupled with honesty and candor. It is note. worthy that three Norwegians have won the Nobel prize. Dr. Blegen explained the Univer- sity system of Norway. The ltudent matriculates and then attend: classes if he so chooses. When he has worked up his subject, he takes an examina- tion. The overproduction of teachers is cared for by sending the professors away to study for a time and not graduating any new teachers. In spite of the development of agri- culture, the harnessing of water power and the social advancement of Norway, the lure of the West often reaches deep into the heart of the Norwegian. In spite of the deep beauty of the woods, the crystal streams. and the mystery of the hills, the longing to know what lies beyond grips the soul of the young Nor— wegian, It is this urge which sends him forth to discover new lands and forces. It is of this lernson thinks when he writes, “Forth will I forth, over the lofty mountains” The urge to go in quest for new and better things follows with him and often brings him success and victory in life. The musical numbers on the pro— gram included a vocal solo by Julius Hermunslie, accompanied by Miss Jennie Skurdalsvald, and a piano solo by Gertrude Vogt, exchange: The Cancofdian. The stat? has re- cently been completed by the addition of eleven new members. Concordia is preparing for the 40th Anniversary Celebration of the found- ing of the school which is to be held next fall. Nine of the Concordia gridders are playing their last game: of college football this fall. Did You Know That— There are twenty graduates of South high school attending Augs- burg this year'!

There are twenty-four graduates of Augsburg Academy in the col- lege and theological departments? Emil Fossan, '30, is taking an advanced course in French at John Hopkins University? The “Echo” was founded in the same ‘year as the "Minnesota Daily”? There are now ninety-six fresh- men? Charles Stangeland, '98, is teach- ing at the University of Berlin? There are twenty-six more stu- dents now than there were all last year? There are eight Minnehabl Academy graduates at Augsburg!
