T.. AA. '24. “The Open Book" Wise observers of humanity say that the characters of men are disclosed by the company men keep; book lovers add that books are the most telltale of com panions. Books have caused the rmlting of some men. as well as the destruction of others. If great and good men tell us what books they read most in their youth. when their characters were taking form. then we can almost invariably say these also were good. And perhaps each quality of any such a great man's charac- tercanbetracedbacktoanorig'lina book. Then we could classify our books according to the qualities of character they produce; we could say that books of this chss nuke mess magmas. three treated historical matter which. press. ably. is presented better now. It may an be out of the way to remark here that it was in Weema’ Lite of Washington. and. I believe. in that book only. that the story of George and the cherry tree was seriously given otrt as a fact. What sis feet it had upon Lincoln, I do not know. Lincoln became president. however. and that may be a point in lavor ol Weems. When we analyse that list of hoqu we see how much serious matter there was. The Bible gave purity of spirit and the mystical quality to Lincoln's character. Robinson C mar gave the manly. inde- pendent nature. and also impressed the fact that men derive mutual benefit 0! ineatitnahle value in the world's sym of society.

To these belong Fru Inger at ¢steraat. The Warriors and The Pretenders. Only a few take themes from universal history, among them is Emperor and Galilean. It portarys the struggle of heathendom against Christianity. His modern dramas of romanticism are all written in blank verse. The chief among these are: Love’s Comedy, Brand and Peer Gynt. The two last named are his leading dramas and constitute the very essence of his art. \‘Vhen he began to write realistic plays he employed expressions of simple modern Norse prose which style was very fascinating to people of his day. To this group belong, The League of Youth. Pillars of Society, A Doll’s House. Ghosts, An Enemy of the People, The \Vild Duck, Rosmerholm, The Lady from the Sea, Hedda Gobler, The Master Builder and others. His last message to the world was “\Vhen \V e Dead Awake." Ibsen died in Christiania, May 23, 1906. He had puzzled his people many a time by his writing. but now when he was laid to rest, people from all parts of the country came together to pay tribute to his mem~ ory. In foreign lands memorial tablets mark the places where he wrote his great masterpieces. "\Ve need the spirit of Christ if we are going to win the hearts for Christ. That is not a matter of education, that is a matter of new life. which God gives. But we need, never-the-less, to have our faculties trained, and we need time to search out the wisdom of God and His revelation of Himself. 1 Show less

MUSICALS The Band. For a long time it seemed as though we would be minus a band at Augsburg. For some reason or other little interest was taken. Some weeks ago, however, l)r. l’etri consented to take charge of the band. In a short time it was reorganized, and now plans are already complete for a tour the first of May. Although we have secured some help from outside, yet the best players are our own boys, and all who have heard the band have praised the work done. \Ve are now hard at work and are putting the finishing touches on our concert/numbers. This requires both time and patience as well as hard work. but the musical standard of our school must be kept up, and this standard, which calls for the best in music, must be met. Our tour this spring will carry us through some of our northern congrega- tions. Some of the places which we in- tend to stop off at are: Brainerd, Duluth. Show less

The biting satire .in some of Ibsen’s productions can clearly be traced back to his father while the idealistic and W settiments which are found in all of his works are a beautiful heritage from his mother's refined nature. When Henrik Ibsen was eight years old his father failed in business and moved with his family to a small country place in the outskirts of the city where he with his family lived a quiet life and worked and struggled hard for an ex istenoe. Here in the secluded country place young Ibsen passed the remaining years of his childhood until he was confirmed at the age of fifteen. During these years he did not as most children. enjoy the company of many playmates. Not even his younger brothers and sisters did he associate a great deal with. He rather preferred to be by himself and live a secluded life. He attended school at Skien where he became interested in the old Icelandic sagas. These he read with great interest (and even in this young age he made sketches for dramas based on the sagas'and constructed a little theatre. As soon as he was confirmed he left Skier! and went to a little coast town called Grimstad where he worked as an apprentice to an apothecary at that place for six years. Upon leaving Skien, Ibsen broke off all comedians with his family. The only use he corresponded with was a sister. and his letters to his sisters have been I tonne of information about him later. Ibo believed that to be absolutely inde- Mdatt it was necessary to stand alone Iflkaprtfromtherestoftheworld. For flit reason he broke away from bin-end family rdations more than any “er of the gm: authors of Norway. ; The Augsburg Echo He was a striking contrast to Bjorn- stjeme Bjnmson in this respect. At Grimstad the slumberng genius of young Ibsen began to awaken. The mighty ocean roaring and rolling cons tinually along the coast where the little town was located made a powerful im- pression on the plastic mind of the future author and poet. The familiar places around (irimstad also became the scenes pictured in his narratives. But he did not only absorb ideas and receive impressions from nature about him. He was also a close student of hu- man nature. He observed with keen in- terest the people which he met in that little hamlet, and he soon aroused anta— gonism by his satirical verses which (lif- ferent individuals felt were aimed at them. Ibsen was, however. not only by his immediate surroundings. lie was interested in the world at large. Three important world dramas were eu- acted during the year 1848 which had a tremendous influence upon Ibsen. The outburst of the French revolution, the war in Slesvig, and the uprisings of the Magyars. In his first drama "Catalina", he clearly displays the revolutionary spirit of his times. Ibsen was a typical self—made man. He acquired the greater part of his educa- tion by home study preparing for the University. He read Cicero’s speeches against Catalina; but Ibsen always took Catalina’s part which fact also revealed his spirit of opposition. It is interesting to note how “Catalina” was first received by the public in Nor- way. When Ibsen had prepared his manuscript his friend Olai Schulerud went to Christiania and submitted it for performance on the stage but was re- fused. Later he went to a printer to have it published, but” the printer refused to publish it at his own risk. The drama influenced Show less

Show moreThe Augsburg Echo LITERARY “Footprints on the Sands of Time" On a bright afternoon in the early summer of 1745 there was a great excite- ment in the camp of some Deleware In- dians near Crossweeksung, New Jersey. A messenger from a tribe near the Sus- quehannah had just arrived and brought strange and unwelcome news. The visi- tor had been sent with a message to some Indians living a few days’ journey to the Northwest. There he had seen and heard a messenger from the god of the white people. He had also found out that the man intended to visit and perhaps settle among this tribe in order to teach the people about his god. And at the present time he was only about a days journey ofl’. The news was broadcast in a few min- utes. The chief, Black Bear. ordered the reporter brought to the old oak. There he was placed before the leader, while the prominent warriors fanned a circle about the two. The younger men gathered in groups at a short distance. eagerly dis- cussing the news while their hands grasped firmer around the bows and the tomahawks. The women looked curious- ly out from their tents and chatted with the neighbors about the peculiar message. Even the children and the dogs stopped their play. The visitor retold his story and an- swered the questions put to him. Silence reigned for a few minutes. The expresw ions on the faces of the warriors fore- told nothing good. Finally Black Bear spoke. Should a messenger from the god of the whites be tolerated in their camp? Should this god be allowed to teach the red men to be just as bad as the white. who gave the Indians fire water. and afterward cheated their land from them? Should he be allowed to teach them to lie, steal. and rob like the whites did? An angry murmur from the listeners was the response. After a short discussion it was un~ animously decided that the messenger of the god of the whites should not be al~ lowed to enter the camp of the tribe. He should be killed before he reached that far. A cry of approval was heard from all the men. Immediately the Gray Ilawk. a young and ambitious warrior was dispatched to carry out the decision. \\'hile this death sentence was passed the object of it proceeded on horseback toward the camp. He was a man between twenty-five and thirty years of age. Yet. he might be mistaken for an older person, for his youthful face was pale and care- worn, and his posture revealed a frail and weak body. In spite of that there was a remarkably attractive and beauti- ful expression in his face—The man was David Brainard, missionary to the In- dians. As it grew dark he lit from his horse. unpacked and tied it to graze. Then he pitched a small tent. lighted a candle, and prepared a frugal meal. After that he studied an Indian dialect and made some translation. Then he meditated upon a Scripture passage. and finally knelt before the throne of mercy. Show less

Wash." has had some of the greatest men for its masters. Then there is the type. The linotype is a very modern innovation and cannot as yet claim much of a tradition. If there does happen to be a linotype in a small town office. it is usually out of repairs, or laid off most of the time, or at least it smells so badly when in operation that one wishes to throw it out. Hand com~ position is the old standby, even if it is slow and tiresome work. The editor must have some “copy” be- fore he can set anything. Here is where the townspeople usually fail. The editor has no time to chase around to find out whether Jim Brown has built a chicken house and repaired a leak on the roof or not. It is really up to Mr. Brown or his neighbors to report that to the newspa- per office, if they wish to see any notice of it at all. They do. we can be sure, just as sure as small town human nature holds true. Eleventh hour reports are nuisances. but people will come in with a tablet full of news when the last form is about to be locked up. One thing the editor must go out after is "copy" for “ads”. That does not come of itself. It is a remarkable thing when someone brings in new “ad copy" all by himself. Truly, such patrons are much desired. The composition, the make—up. the proof-reading: the correcting—all of this work should arouse in your hearts more sympathy than ever for the printer. Then, iflthe concern is so fortunate as to pos- seas» one. there is the trouble with the gasoline engine which is attached to the press. Altho it is true that not every man who can write an editorial can cajole a Mlle to do its duty, I believe the opposite is true to a greater extent. M is. am every man who can run a Moe engine can write an editorial. The Augsburg Echo Hundreds, perhaps thousands, of editors over the country do both every week. Yet once more. my readers, and especially you who are familiar with the seemingly inherent stubbornness of a gasoline en- gine, I appeal to your sympathy, and I request you to avoid unnecessary perse- cution of your home town newspaper man in the future. At last. after a week of trouble and labor, the paper is off the press. Then comes the folding. the wrapping. and the mailing. But this seems but little work to the editor, for the end is near. When the last paper is resting securely in the post-office. and when the press day is over, the editor is full of joy. He is given a lease of happiness. True, it is short; but during that time he can rest his weary head and his aching body. The village critics will not come in until the mnrrow, and the business seems so slight and unimportant that it can wait until the morrow. The editor has the feeling of the Mexican: “Mauana. mauana." It is enough for him to know that again the weekly grind is over, and that the weekly “rag” is out. I. C. I... ’25. ' The Calling. Twilight was gradually falling over the prairie.
