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

Sageng, was born at Tonset, Norway, in 1873, and spent his early boyhood days there, coming to America in 1878, with his parents, who settled on a farm in Otter Tail County, Minnesota. Young Sageng’s early education was acquired in a coun- try school, near his father's farm, by attending school during the win- ter, and at such short intervals dur- ing the summer months as his ser— vices could be spared from the farm. In 1895, he entered Augs- burg Seminary at Minneapolis, and graduated from the college depart— ment at that institution in 1899, with the degree of B. A. He con- tinued his studies at this institution graduating from the theological de- partment in 1902, with the degree of B. D. While working on his father’s farm, young Sageng obtained a practical knowledge of all farm im- plements, and threshing machines in particular. He became profici— ent as a steam engine operator, and did engineer duty through several successive seasons of threshing. He also performed the duties of ‘sep— arator man” for several years, and obtained in that way a thorough knowledge of all the apparatus used in threshing in connection with the steam engine. Mr. Sageng's parents were ar- dent Christians and instilled in the minds of their children a deep loy- alty and esteem for religious mat- ters. The environment of those early boyhood days on the farm, associating always with industrious and conscientious citizens, was such as tended naturally to develop character and purpose. There were four brothers in the family, but one of the four, Lars Sageng, died while yet a young man. The other three have won a reputation as thoroughly honest and reliable men and are highly re- spected and honored citizens of their respective communities.

While this machine was in the pro— cess of construction 'the Sageng Threshing Machine Company was organized, under the laws of the State of Minnesota.
