She laments the fact that none at them was ever naughty enough to make herself re lliembel‘ed. At the end of a period or (our years. she attracted the attention of an in4 tillentlal man by her rendition oi “Cora Name". and as a result was or iered the role of Gilda in “Rigoletto” by the opera director.

Among Negro writers who have allied prominence in the lltenry world are: Paul George Duhhar, who writes in the Negro dialect; Charles Chestnut. an author at renown; James II, Johnson, who has written exten- sively for miles: De Kay, a radi- al who writes unflacted by existing continua: and Joule Pame who hamheyondthevetlofherraee and portrayed tho real truth.

Pleasure Trip Taken By Seniors Hike to Mendota Early on March thirty-first, tile seniors, decked out with knickers. sweaters, and a comely splurge oi color, hiked by way of the river trail to Mendota where the day was spent “rightriollyr ," The walk to Meir data was made most interesting by a stop at the Ford plant. At this junc- ture, the men mule a general observa tion tour, while the ladies were strengthened by that refreshing bever age, pop, which was to be obtained at a nearby soda-lountuin. Their intention had been to see ihe many historic Minnesota relics treasr ured in Lhe Sibley-House; but. as this building was sound closed, the day was spent in observation and nlerrl‘vmskA ing. At noon, all gathered about a camp tire to enjoy their dinner. The food seemed tastier than ever since ever)“ one’s appetite had been heightened by the long march.

In re- ligious activities, literary, musical, and dramatic organizations, and in all branches of athletics, freshmen are playing a prominent part. We have now been given another opportunity to display our talents—this time in the field of journalism. According to cus- tom, one issue of the Echo has been turned over to that supposed- ly green and inexperienced group—the freshmen. We present, then, for your approval, the freshman “Echo.” We have not tried to make it a “feature” paper in any way. We have tried merely to come up to the usual high standard set by the regular staff In your criti ism, for criticism there is bound to be, we would ask you to observe the old slogan, “If you like our product tell your friends; if not, tell us." OUR “SONGSTERS” Augsburg this year boasts of two of the outstanding singing organizations in the state. Any school would be proud of claim- ing the Glee Club and Choral Society. The personnel of both these groups has been putting forth diligent and conscientious efi‘ort since early last fall. These efforts have by no means been in vain, for churches and many other institutions of Minneapolis now consider it an honor to have these Augsburg representatives take part in their programs. We are also very elated over the fact that we have two very able music directors, Professor Opseth and Miss Skurdalsvold. No organization can progress without inspiration. These leaders have given their warblers an incentive to work for; they have spurred them on to greater accomplishments. The interest they have aroused is working wonders; that is true in any group— inspiration in conjunction with honest effort brings success. Miss Skurdalsvold and Mr. Opseth are to be complimented on the de» velopment of these two organizations. On Thursday the Choral Society leaves on a short trip through southern Minnesota, and the Glee Club goes on a tour of northern Minnesota and North Dakota on Saturday. We feel assured that everyone who hears them will be more than satisfied, for their programs are varied and full of life. It is indeed very fortunate for all concerned that such trips can be made, for in this manner, students become acquainted with many Augsburg boosters and outsiders. A general good feeling towards the school is thus developed. Let us give these songsters our moral support; they are boosting Augsburg! Mildred Halvorson. EASTER Easter—what does it mean to us? Business looks at this season as a time of increased sales. The house-wife looks out at the signs of approaching spring, and realizes that with Easter comes housecleaning. The students scan the calendar eagerly and count the days until their brief vacation bem'ns, when they shall be free from study. Do we rejoice in Easter for these or similar shallow, super- ficial reasons, or has this memorable day a deep message of real ioy for us? Easter Day represents the glorious triumph over death and the power of sin! Easter is the emblem of resurrec- tion and eternal life! Easter is the great day when Jesus Christ was glorified and proven to be the Son of God, the promised Mes- siah, the Savior through whom we can become the children of God! Has this Day a living. personal significance to us? If with the dawning of Easter morning a great Joy swells up in our hearts, and we cry out, exulting, “This day, so long ago, my Savior won His great victory—for me!" .If this is what it means to us, then we have the true Easter joy in our hearts, then we can have Easter with us all the year around—Joy, peace, hap— piness unlimited. Student’s Mind Of “College Humor" The humor which prevails amongst college students certainly is nobly and truly pictured and illustrated to us by such magazines as “College Humor". “College Comics", “American Humor", “Whiz Bang". and others. i feel ex- tremely proud of myself as a college student after reading one of these ina- gazines. Why, 1 am one of a group of students who can credit myself with so much ingenuity that i am able to think up jokes which cause a great deal of enjoyment—l can word the joke of a ten yeanold so that a per verted mind of a fifteen year-old will consider the result of my attempt at wiiticism extremely mirthful. 0h, Pin a progressive young man to be honored and prized as are the magazines which portray me so faithfully. So here's to the longevity and prosperity of these magazines! —A, B. 3., '3}. u 04' Library Etiquette For those who enjoy a pleasant hour at the “gossiper‘s table." or can spend a few minutes getting that latest joke. or care to listen to the most clever man on the campus give his favorite “line”, I can recommend but one place—the library, If you have a little story you would like to tell, and you cannot find a suit- able audiece, demand attention in the library. You will never be disappoint- ed there. This place is a “free-for- all." Everyone is expected to be "game". If is par! of the library eti- Quette. l have but one Warning to sound. If you are studiousiif you have never said. even once in your life. "I'm tired of studying; I‘m going down to the library”iii you have never thought of saying this#I warn you! You must think of the hundreds who have been known to say this, and be able to for» give them. 7 L. H.. '31. Five More Teachers Are Placed Since the last issue of the “EChO"» five seniors have accepted high school teaching positions. The five Who have accepted posi< tions are: Louis Hanson, Camrose, Alta, Can; Orrie Larson, Church's Ferry, N. D; Merrol Larson, Church's Ferry, N. D.; Fritiof Christensen, \Vilimar, Minn.: and Gordon Hanson. Ealdur, Men, Can. One of ollr star hockey players. Louis (Lew) Hanson. has accepted a position as teacher of mathematics and science at Montrose. Minn. He will also coach nthletica "Lew" is not only a SiBl‘ performer on our famous hockey learn, but also plays a very good brand of baseball and football. Orrie Larson, editor~lnrchief of this year's “Augsburginn”. Will assume the principal's duties at the high school of his home town, in his freshman year. Orrie won the oratorical Cup. Since then, he has been a member of the debating team, the Echo staff, and the Delta Sigma Chi Literary Society. Our football captain, .‘Vierrol Larson, Will act as assistant coach, and teacher of mathematics at Mora. Minn. Mer- rol was a "big" man in our football team, and also aided Augsburg in winning the state basketball title a year ago, In baseball he occupies the mound, where he (“an rightly be called a “dark horse". He is a member of the Lambda Epsilon Phi Literary Sir ciety, The man Who made Augsburg's first touchdown, mtjuf (Fritz) Christen- , be attained. Debate Debating is a relatively new activity at Augsburg College. The first teams were organiud by Mr. Sevenon in 192526, meeting Gustavus Adolphus in I dual debate. Mr. Brings took up the work the following year. and do bates were held with Concordia. St. Olaf, Hamline, St. Thomas, Gustavus Adolphus, Angustana. and River Falls colleges. This year Augustlna. McMurry, St, Olaf, and St. Thomas were chosen as opponents in single debates, While Concordia was debated both pro and con. The college women have also he- come interested in this iield of en- deavor. They encountered the tennis from Gustavus, St. Olaf, Hamline. and Macalester in a fashion which will boost this line of forensic: among the coeds. When anything new arises. there is always some doubt as to whether a success or a failure will follow. To make debating I success, three prin- ciples are necessary; first, the ability or material must be at hand; second. we must have the instruction and coaching: lastly, we must have the school spirit behind the activity. Our debaters have not had the op- portunity to develop in the art of matching wits. it takes years of train- ing to make the best athlete. it takes time before the fundamentals, the plays. and the details of the game can be absorbed by the star athlete, So with debate, only through long ex- perience can a debater gather the rudi- menls of debating. This can be ac- complished only through the process of time. It must become a part of the school and have been in existence for some years before the best results can Although we have noi been extremely successful, we have al~ ways had good coaching, and encour~ aging support from the student body. Augsburg has laid a good founda- tion for debating. Only two members of this season's squads are being graduated. consequently, experienced debaters will carry the burden next winter. “’5 expect something "big" from them, AJohn Nordberg John Berg Heads Mission Group The regular meeting of the Mission Group was held Monday evening.

The indomitable men who made pose sible the civilization ot the Walt which we enjoy, will be with us but a short time. Then, only their splendid achievements will remain to give evi- dence of their conquering spirit. The task which confronted these men staggers us with It: immensity, Many at them came to our land trom distant Europe, and While battling for a living had to learn a new language. Most of them were from Dover!!- stricken countries, and the only wealth they had was a willingness to work. and thrifty habits. As they filtered Into the western lands, they found virgin territory. Towns were miles apart. There were no roads, no schools, no churches. and no railways However, with undaiintel‘l faith Ind Youthful enthusiasm, they started their Work urld trusted the future to bring success. Those pioneers who settled on the prairies made themselves shantiea at the tough sod. In the wooded regions. a hammer ,1! saw, and an ax, sufficed Rs tools with which to build 3 log house. “'lth meager savings were ac- quired a plow. a narrow, and a team of oxen. As soon as possible, a few chickens. a hog or two. and a cow were added to this llnprolniaing be Einning. Each undertaking was laborious and slow, The patient ox pulled the plow and the harrow, and the need was sown by hand. Cutting the grain meant hours of toll with a r‘radle ill the hot sun. The threshing was done either with the flail. or. in favored localities, with n hurse—pou‘ur thresh- ing machine. When it was necessary to go to a town with produce or to purchase the household needs, it was generally a two or three day trip with slow-ploddlug oxen over mere trails. in the town the nruluce was sold, and the butter and eggs exchanged for groceries, Then came it change “'ith the ad- vent of more neighbors, roads became better, Horses took place or the tixeii New towns sprang up along the raiiroads which were rapidly being built.

A man is standing on the brow of a high hill, Below this hill, stretches a Vast expanse of prairie. and the min. with one hand shading his eyes, is gazing out over this illinlltflhle space. As he gazes with an intense look into that region, the artist gives him the power to visualize the future. H8 sees the far-stretching fields of grain surrounding the peaceful farm house; he sees the gigantic cities with their (‘lOlldrFierl‘iliE skyscrapers: he sees the railroads binding every town. every city, and every locality together with bands of steel; he sees the rivers teeming with traffic; he sees it won- derful road system on which horses are rarely seen; and he sees activi- ties carried on by the busy populu» tion of the regions into which he is to . pass all of which staggers his imagina- tion.

In making up :1 “Who's Who" of Augsburg students, We should not for- get the versatile editor of the “Echfl”. Clement Leesinnd. Clem is not the type of student _who goes about loudly proclaiming his superiority. but he prefers to be a silent booster, doing big things lust for the love of it. Clem is finishing his eighth year at Augs- burg—eight glorious years of work and pleasure have been his, until now he has become so attached to his Alma Mater that he hates to think of gradus nting. Clem has taken part in prnc~ tlcnlly every worthwhile activity at Augsburg, and the school is indeed proud to own him as one of its great- est boosters. Clem's activities have been at) many and varied that it is difficult even to mention them in the space alloted tor this article. He is on the membership roll of the Writer's Club, the Press Club. and the Swimming Club. Aided by two years of vocal training. Clem‘s ability as a tenor easily gained him a position on the Glee Club, which re rently returned from a concert tour of Minnesota. Clement was the first president of the Lincoln debating club. serving in this capacity for the past tWo years. In addition to his regular | CHAPEL TALKS I Thursday, April . was mission day the altering missionary train for Augsburg. Before Rev Salltal mission field in india, brought Roseliiund, a us a greeting irom the Workers and friends out there. After licv. Rosenlund's greeting, Rev. Mattsoll gave an interesting talk on the history of foreign missions or the Norwegian Lutheran church in America, He pointed out that the mis- aion spirit “as in the hearts of the no. migrants from Norway even before they found any particular way or ex- pressing it, and wlicu they did express their interest it was through pecuniary assistam‘e which they sent thru the headquarters at Norway. in 1530 to article written by Professor Sverdrup.

Two years later, in 1889, Rev. and Mrs, Tou. the second couple. was sent to the same field. in 1892 the Lutherans in America got their own mission field in Madagascar, and is said to be the moat dimcult mission field in the world. in connection with the preparation of mission workers three institutions should be men- tioned: Augsburg Seminary. the Dea- Coness Hospital and Home at Minne- apolis. and Oak Grove Seminary. Monday, April 11, Professor Elegen led in chapel exercises. He read the 115 Psalm and had for his theme humility". He said that words can have many interpretations. Humility is not a sign of weakness. but it is a realization and a recognition at our- selves and our own limitations. it. in not the purpose of any instructor to make the student feel how little he knows, but what great powers and possibilities he has when he develop: his ability. The only power that stands is the power of God.

Although he has not yet entered the Theologital department, Clem hll served as the assistant to Pastor 0. Morgan of St. Luke's church tor the past two years. He has also served as a pastor in the New Ellington, 5. D,, congregations for six months, and has assisted a number of pastors in various parts of the state. The students of Augsburg could Choose no man better qualified to handle the editorial duties of the "Erho" than Clement Leesiand. Clem has studied Journalism with the nine wholerhearted. sincere Spirit that he puts into all his Worlt, and the great improvement of our paper during the past Year readily bespeaka his in- fluence. it is his aim to make the "Echo" one of the leading college newspapers in the country. Clem is striving vigorously to make our little paper “a weekly on a par with any college paper." it Augsburg is ever fortunate enough to have lournniiam added to its curriculum, it will be largely due to the untiring eilorta at Clement Leesland. “A man Who loves to Work need never worry about getting and holding a good position. “lurk, lots ofit. coupled with play. a positive outlook upon lite, seeking to he of service to your fellowman, seeing the good in others, ‘looking to Jesus' for fellow- ship and guidance. meditating on the Word of God, and With a song in your heart—all these Will help make lite sweet and happy for yourseltand those about you," Clem said. “Augsburg will outgrow its present quarters and in a few years will have an enrollment as large as any or our sister colleges " Clem plans to enter the theological department upon his graduation from college this spring. ty does not come [mm the lack of courage. but it is the sign of strength in Defense of the Preacher’s Son \vhile perusing the pages of a late numher of "The Literary Digest", the writer's interest was aroused by an article c“tilled “What to expect of n Preacher's Son ' "The Digest" says.

The actions of a minister's son are all too often taken in the wrong way, and like other gossip. are circulated treeiy. often with dire results. Bishop Hughes said, “No preacher's boy ever goes very {or into this lire without doing something that dlsplenses someone else." Why is it that people should he so merciless with the sons and daughters of the clergy? Why is it that the boys from the mains are looked upon as black sheep wherever they go? Perhaps it is because every» one expects them to be ideals or youth, when they are really nothing but “reg'lar tellers," full or vim and vigor, trying their best to make this life more interesting.

If that is true, then it is only right that we relate a few of the incidents that made our glee club tour interesting. We landed in Madelia early in the afternoon on our first day out and proceeded immediately to find our temporary quarters. We were all taken care of. but it is part of human nature to explore new places, so we were soon up town looking for the post-office. That sounds strange, no‘ doubt. but we were looking for mail five hours after we left home. Im~ agine our surprise when we learned that search was not in vain. Our footsteps quickly led us to the church parlors where we were roy- ally entertained by the ladies. After the banquet we decided to spend a quiet afternoon visiting the school. But that was not to be. We had just emerged from the church basement when we were greeted by the weird and ominous sound of the fire whistle. Excitement reigned sup- reme. The whole town turned out to view the spectacle. A little smoke~ house had finally tired of its lowly existence and went up in smoke. The ashes were thrown to the winds I stip- pose. ...Lhadthe goodtortune, of staying at the parsonage and I slept soundly that night. No doubt I would be sleeping yet it Red had not been long- ing for some information. He is a profound student and is willing to learn, and I did not have the heart to disappoint him. When we become college students we are expected to have an infinite knowledge about all things, Well. Red wanted to know how I would proceed to find the volume of a door knob he happened to see when he awakened from his slumbers. That was quite a problem for that time of day, but I felt I had to answer it. I did not want to lose too much sleep so I told him to “extract the square root of the key hole and mu]- tiply by ten." Then I turned over and went to sleep before Red could get a Chance to argue about it. We got up in time to eat our break. feet shortly before we sat down to eat any dinner. If we had taken one more cup at coffee. the last course of breakfast would have overlapped the, first course of dinner. We had honey for dinner which the pastor said, was gathered by his own bees. One of our brilliant members asked him what kind of fodder he gave them. On our journey south, we wrote the “daily dallyings." Having finished a set we planned to have it mailed in the next town. One of the freshmen offered to do that very thing, for he no doubt felt that he must do some- thing of importance. He bravely step- ped off the train at Windom and pro- ceeded at once to find a mail box. Eureka! His search was ended and the cards safely deposited. A roar of laughter broke upon his ears be- cause he had dropped the cards in a tool box. Between Adrian and Luverne we encountered a sand and ‘dust storm so severe that we were forced to stop the cars until the real estate passed by. several acres qf egrth were within my grasp at several times. But what is several acres when the whole atmesnhere is fit tor agricultural nur- poses, and all you have to do is to (Gontlnued on page 4) Signs of Spring The girls of East Hall journeyed to Riverside Park Saturday evening and enjoyed a very lovely time by the waters of the Mississippi. The buoy- ant spirits of youth swelled forth into frolics on the green. When the activ- ity subsided. the participants dined on envious morsels. Thereupon the play was again entered into and end- ed with harmonious vocalizing. When sitting around the glowing embers with twilight merging into darkness. footsteps were heard. The shadows presently took the form of a “cop” who displayed a friendly interest. and upon the departure of the merry- makers, bade them return again, Mrs_ F.

NUMBER 12 Augsburg-Hamline ‘ Game Opens Con- ferenc_e Baseball Severson and Hoff Will Take the Mound for Augsburg The game Saturday on the Univer— sity High diamond not only opens the state college baseball schedule, but it also is the initial game for Augsburg in the conference. So it is no wonder this duel is creating a great deal of enthusiasm mingled with expectancy and curiosity. Coach Hanson, the new Augsburg mentor, has been drilling the Auggies the past ten days and has tested his men in one practice game. He expects to arrange one more prac- tice game before meeting Hamline on Saturday. Coach Hanson sees great possibilities in his team and all he needs is a few favorable afternoons in which to limber the players up a bit. Hanson is having the same dif< ficulty that most college coaches are having when it comes to filling the pitcher’s box. He seems at present to be limited to “Lefty” Severson and Olaf Hoff. Hoff, however. is handi- capped by a weak wrist which was injured in the basketball tussel at Macalester some time past. The other positions on the diamond are not cinched by anybody as yet. Coach Hanson has been shifting his men about to see where they fit the best. It is likely that Al Jerstad will call’m behind the bat and that Ossie Oudal will do the short stopping. The other positions will not be mentioned now as they would be merely wild guesses. but we can rest assured that Satur- day‘s diamond will be adequately equipped. Coach Carlson of Hamline has a fairly strong aggregation com- posed of veterans and some promis ing new beginners. He expects to give the Auggies plenty of opposition in this early season garx.

Some years ago there was within the college department an organ- ization called the Alpha Sigma Debating Society. All college students were tnembers of the society. It was very active on the campus and managed to arrange a number of programs throughout the year. which although they were not alwavs confined to debating. were very interest— ing. Later. when the college enrollment began to increase. the Alpha Sigma Society began to have greater difficulty in maintaining itself. The responsibility for its welfare became distributed over such a large group, many of whom were disinterested, that its very existence was threatened. Under great difficulties. two or three meetings were held during the vear. Each succeeding year some one would take it upon hirself to call a meeting to “revive” the Alpha Sigma Society. This \\ cut on until two years ago it was decided to let the society be "dead" since it could never stay alive. Instead. a group of interested students O'ganized the l.incoln Debating ('lub. This club is composed of those studctits who are definitely interested in debating. consequently it is not encumbered with those who are not willing to assume responsibility Theie are at present fourteen members. ’ Ianuary 22, 1926, the Lincoln Club held a debate on the \Vorld Court. The interest that was shown on that occasion was an encourage- ment to the debaters and they immediately began to maki- plans for debates with-other schools. Since it was so late in the season, they found that other schools had already planned their schedules. They were finally able. however, to arrange for two debates with GustaVUs Adolphus i0 be held about May 15. The try out has been held and the teams chosen. \ \Vc hope the efiorts that are being put forth this year will serve as an incentive toward interscholastic debating and oratory. \Vhile we are making great strides in athletics, we can not afford to lag in the more intellectual pursuits.

Oak Grove Seminary, and the \Villmar Bible School, for the purpose of drawing up some recommendations to be considered at the annual meeting this year. The work of investigation has been carried on during the winter and the committee has now pub- lished its report in the church papers in order that the public may have an opportunity to express its approval or disapproval of the changes advocated. There are a number of things in the report that concern Augsburg. As students, we are all vitally interested in whatever may be done to make our school better than it already is. In order that you may all have an opportunity to read them, you will find the recommendations elsewhere on this page. 'lhe complete report of the committee gives the reason for orfering the recommendations. It will be found in the Norwegian in “Folkebladet” for March 31, and in English in "The I.utheran Free Church Messenger" for April. Read it. The Beauties of Nature Have you ever watched a little bird Seek a nest in a green leafy tree? Have you ever looked in a rose's heart And found a big. buzzing, bumblebee? Have you ever noticed the rich dark moss By a. brook as clear as crystal? And seen the vines to the wet banks cling By the side of a prickly thistle? Have you gathered nuts and berries, With a prattling squirrel near-by? A crow in saucy boldness Cawing from her tree-top high? Oh, how I do love to wander, Just linger. and listen, and touch; For the beauties and signs of nature Give me a. thoughtful and happy heart. To the Pussywillow Dear little pussywillow With your soft gray fur, Come peeping from out your brown cloak; Come to tell that winter is o'er, That spring came here when you 'woke. Brave little pussywillow, Did you not fear The wind, the storm, and the cold? But you tucked yourself in your furry coat, And out of your warm bed stole. Kind little pussywillow, What pleasure you bring To those who are watching for spring. Of all the things that later come, Recommendations To carry into effect the conclusions of the Committee, we submit the fol- lowing specific recommendations for consideration at the next: Annual Con- ference of the Lutheran Free Church: 1. More earnest efforts should be made in our congregations and especially among our college students to induce Christian young men having the necessary qualifications to devote their lives to the ministry. ’ 2. The educational requirements for admission to the Theological depart- ment should normally be completion of a full college course or its equiva- lent. 3. Needed additions or changes in the teaching staff should be made, if necessary, to strengthen the work of the Theological department. 4. All professors should so far as pos- sible be permitted to devote their time exclusively to their school work. 6. A department of practical Theology should be established in charge of a man who has had adequate experi- ence as a pastor. 6. Every effort should he made by the Crllege department to meet fully. as soon as practicable, the requirement for the standard college set by the University of Minnesota and the Min- nesota State Board of Education. 7. All teachers in the college should complete their graduate work as soon as possible. When necessary, leave of absence should be granted for this purpose. 8. A small revolving fund should be created to be used in temporarily as- sisting promising young men to pre- pare themselves by graduate study for teaching positions at Augsburg or Oak Grove. 9. In the interest of good discipline and for the purpose of coming into closer touch with the individual stu- dent. a properly qualified dean of men should be appointed by the college, 10. The Academy at‘Augsburg should be discontinued. This change should he made by discontinuing annually one year of work in this department beginning in the fall of 1926, 11. Oak Grove Seminary should be made (Io-educational, taking over the work of the academy at Augsburg. A commercial department should be established and greater emphasis placed on the music and parochial de- partments. 12. The Willmar Bible School should be discontinued. All the debts of the school should be paid and the prop- erty disposed of as soon as practic- able on terms that shall be satisfac- tory to those who may have a condi- ilcnal interest in its disposition. 13. The Boards of Trustees of Augs- burg Seminary and Oak Grove Sem- inary shall meet jointly once a year and elect a Financial Secretary who shall devote all his time to making the congregations familiar with the work and the needs of our schools and supervise the annual solicitation of funds for their support. 14. The Financial Secretary shall as- sist in organizing the subscription work in the local congregations. He shall speak the cause of the schools as far as he can in the various con- gregations. at district meetings and district young people’s conventions. He shall make use of our church pa- pers and other means of publicity in bringing home to the people the great importance of Christian Schools. 15. The Financial Secretary shall ar- range district conferences with pas- tors and representative members of the congregations with the view of securing the most general and equit- able participation possible in sup- port ofour schools. 16. All organizations within our church. whose main or incidental purpose is You. pussywillow, shall be the king. Together with the recent multiplica- tion of vocations has come a greater difficulty in selecting the proper life work. In spite of the fact that more occupations are open to the youth of today than to their parents. the prob- lem of selection has become more puzzling, There are many who chose blindly, and later find themselves to be “square pegs in round holes." singularly, it seems that college Freshmen do not have any more do finite understanding of their particu- lar task than do high school students. The essential difference between the two groups seems to be that the col- lege Freshmen have eliminated from consideration most of the occupations requiring only a high school educa- tion and are confining their choice to those professions necessitating higher education, But within this latter field they are frequently at a loss in selec- tion. It is evident that the shape and di- mensions of occupations are rather fixed, that "square holes” will remain square. Recognising this fact. the problem resolves itself for the student into one of measuring the dimensions both of himself and of the occupation. The following analysis of mental and physical traits and relationships may be of value in the primary measure- ment. These traits are essentially as follows: "Those having to do with general vitality. as stature. proportional de- velopment, condition of the vital or- gans, strength. resistance to fatigue. physical defects. and disease. “Those having to do with sensation and action. as the general qualities of the nervous system; condition of the sense-organs, including tactile, in- esthetic. visual, and auditory sensi- tiveness: sensitiveness of the auto- nomic nervous system; general bodily control; and speed and accuracy of hand movements. "Those having to do with intelli- gence as perception. attention, mem- ory, imagination, and reason, as af- fecting different types of experience. “Those having to do with the emo- tions. interests, and will, as the var- ious emotional attitudes, ideals. pur- poses. etc.. revealed in play, amuse- ments, work reading, education, re- ligion. social relations, and moral con- duct.” Recipe for Happiness What must I do to be happy? I feel so tired and sad, Pray, tell me how to be happy, How my heart can always be glad “Sing” thrilled the bird, “and forget Your sorrows in love of your song." “Work,” said the ant, “and just let Your work make days short that are long." “Run.” gurgled the brook. “and play. Don’t sit around moody and mope." Laughed the wind from the tree-top, “Be gay, “For where hope." there is joy there is i “Smile,” beamed the sun. “and re- member That smiles gloom."

On Friday evening, April 30, the S Olaf Choir will give the closing con cert of its tour at the Lyceum theater. The success of this organization may be summed up in the words of a criti who said. “They came; they sang; they conquered." The beginning of the st. Olaf Choir dates back more than a score of- years. was changed to the St. bers were students, which was made that year included ncapolis Milwaukee, and Chicago. During the following eight years, the Choir made short annual through the midwestern states. In 1913 the St. Olaf Choir went to Norway on a concert tour. There it gave about thirty concerts and was very favorably received wherever it appeared. The King and Queen were present at the first Christianla ap- pearance and came forward to express their admiration and extend congra- Between 1920-1923 the Choir sang in the East and the. larger cities of the country. It has appeared in New York City three times. the last eon- cert being given in the Metropolitan Opera House. “The only criticism heard during the evening was voiced by a neighbor who thought they were too perfect to be human." says Deems Taylor in the “New York World" for January 18. 1922. The Choir always sings from me- mory and minus any accompaniment. It makes use of the best sacred music from Johan Sebastian Bach up to the present time. “It is acknowledged everywhere to be one of the best choral organizations in America, if not in the world.” William H. Haskell in the “Knickerbacker Press" for January 14, 1922, says of it: “If to err is human, the St. Olaf Lutheran Choir is not human. Musically it does not err.” The director of this marvelous or- ganization. one of the most gifted --hoir leaders of our time, is Dr. F, Melius Christiansen. Professor Chris- way, on April 1. 1871. He received his early education in Larvik. and came to this country when he was seventeen years of age. Even as a child he was intensely musical, being especially interested in the violin and piano. The other members of his family were also musical, his grand- father being a skilled organist and Later on Mr. Christiansen went to Germany and studied at Leip- zig for four years under Hans Sitt and Gustav Schreck. It was from the latter that be conceived the idea of a choir such as the one which he now directs. In 1903 Professor Christiansen went to St. Olaf to take charge of the Music department there. Previous to this time he had been an instructor of violin at the Northwestern Conserva- tory of Music in this city. He was also a student at Augsburg at one time. Professor Christiansen has been called a musical missionary and his work as such cannot be overesti~ mated. “The pernicious influence in American music can be best com- batted by cultivating a. taste for what is noble and inspiring."

Show morel 3Q ¢ DOC JONES “We are going to have a storm to- night," said Doc Jones to himself when he saw the sun set behind a heavy bank of clouds. “I wonder if Jack is back yet. He will have a heavy load and I wouldn’t want him to be caught in the storm,” Doc was a sheepherder who was taking care of nine hundred sheep in the mountains during the summer. Jack was a junior in high school and he had come out to the mountains to tend camp and carry provisions from the small town twenty miles away. He had gone to town the day before and Doc expected him back that even- ing. A little later Doc turned to his dogs and said, "I think we’ll have to begin to round up the sheep so as to get in early tn-night. Here, Shep, you start them along over there and. Ted, run over the hill there and bring in the sheep on that side." In the meantime Jack was coming up the valley toward the camp. His saddle-horse and the pack-horse which he led were both showing signs of weariness after the long climb from the town where the provisions had been secured. As he had looked up across the mountain-side which was beautifully clothed in a dark green, he had noticed that the darkness was coming on rather earlier than usual 'Beyond the snow-covered peaks he 'saw the dark clouds beginning to Igather. They seemed to become darker and darker. As he came in sight of the camp the clouds seemed ‘to be rolling on the very tops of the mountains. Doc had not yet brought the sheep down to camp. Jack went up to the wagon and took the packs and saddles off the horses. After giving his faithful )onies a drink at the mountain stream :hat flowed near the camp he led them :0 a grassy spot and hobbled them "or the night. Then he went to the wagon and began to prepare a sup- »er of fresh vegetables and fruit— omething that would be a treat for »loc when he came in. Soon the leaders of the herd be- :an to come around a bend in the .anyon. and above the rolling of the istant thunder Jack could hear the .nkle, linkle of the bells. In about ‘fteen minutes the herd had begun ) settle down for the night and Doc nine in with the dogs. He‘ walked round the herd several times and eemed to be looking for a certain ieep. Jack left his work and came it to him. “What's the matter, Doc. have you at any?" “I've been looking for that black- ced ewe with the twin lambs. The me that was lost last week. She ems to have a tendency to stray off ’ herself once in a while. That's ‘iy I asked you to get another bell ‘ me. I saw her this afternoon, but -an't find her now. She must have en left some place." ~'Where have you been today?" ‘We were over on the other side the divide—toward Rock Creek." ’There is some rough country over yre,” said Jack thoughtfully. “Yes, and if she’s there and should )pen to get down to the creek she y be carried away by the stream ore morning. That creek is bound t rise if we get much rain." ‘But. what are you going to do; can't go out with this storm com- on?" l’ll have to," said Doc as he turned lard the wagon after noticing that t herd was settled. "You stay here watch the camp and I’ll take the em and Shep and look for the a some meat for the dogs. Then sut on his raincoat, picked up the {gen an eye on things here. but : worry about me. I may be out Keep the light burning. 7 With that he stepped - into the night. It was already .iightning flashes followed each in quick succession. The thun- seemed to be continuous. The were lighted by the flashes of light- ning Doc could see the tall pines swaying in the wind. The storm was only approaching as yet—what would it be like when it had actually ar- rived? Doc walked rapidly up the canyon about half a mile, then he turned and began to climb the wall. The rain was falling fast and the heavy clay had become so slippery that progress was slow. Even Shep seemed to find climbing difficult. Once he stepped on a loose stone that turned and caused him to slide down several feet. "Such a night," thought Doc, "not even fit for a dog." To Shep he said, “I'oor dog. I should have left you in camp.” Shep looked up at him, and the glance in his eye seemed to say. “No, I'm all right, Go on." As they neared the crest they seemed to be getting closer to the source of the rain. The wind struck them with more force. Once out of the canyon they increased their speed, for they had over a mile to walk across nearly level land to Rock Creek. The trees were more scat- tered and the wind drove the rain with such force that it penetrated Doc's clothing and he began to get wet in spite of everything. Shep trotted faithfully at his side. Just before they began to descend the slope leading to the canyon a bolt of lightning struck down in a tree a short ways to their right. There was a sharp clap of thunder. The wind seemed to increase in velocity. The rain fell as though the reservoirs of the heavens had been torn open. Doc 'ried to run. His lantern blew out and he had to depend upon the flashes of lightning. He stumbled over a fallen log and fell head-long on the ground. He picked himself up and made his way to the canyon. He crawled down beside a large boulder where he was sheltered from the weather and there he waited. "Oh." thought he, “if I only knew that that sheep was safe. Those poor little lambs are too small, too weak, to be out in this kind of weather. Good doggie" he said as he patted Shep’s dripping head. “you’ve been good to follow me this way—to keep me company. Together we ought to be able to find the sheep and save it from the flood," Each flash of lightning revealed the deep canyon before them. The rain continued to fall in sheets. They waited and waited. There seemed to be no decrease in the fury of the storm. After waiting for what seemed hours, the lightning became less fre- quent; the thunder was not so loud; the wind began to die down, and the rain decreased. At once Doc began to descend into the canyon. He had relighted his lan- tern and he found good use for it in crawling around rocks and trees. Shep came shivering behind him. He went directly toward a grassy spot at the bottom of the canyon and made a careful search, but found nothing. Shepherd and dog plodded on. The walls were nearly perpendicular and close together. They had to walk near the stream where there was con- stant danger of falling into the al- ready swollen current. Another grassy plot of ground was found. After mak- ing a hurried search Doc was about to move on when Shep gave a short bark. Over on one side of the plot and close against the cliff. lay the sheep with her two little lambs. They seemed to be resting comfortably and were not concerned about the storm. The wind and the rain had ceased and the sky had begun to become lighter. Doc noticed at once that they were only a few feet above the stream which was rising rapidly, In a few minutes the creek would be a roaring river. It would rise even above his head. He must get the sheep out quickly. He picked up the lambs, one on each arm, and started to climb the wall at a place a little farther up the canyon. At first the sheep would not follow. She was afraid of the dog and would stamp her foot as if to protect her lambs from it. “Go behind. Shep," said Doc a little sharply, and the dog fell back a little ways. Then the sheep followed. Some- times Doc had to carry both lambs on one arm while he used the other to protect himself while surmounting a boulder or creeping around a ledge. At times he would have to stop and let the ewe smell of her lambs in order that she might be encouraged to follow. She would often stop and bleat. The sound rang through the canyon and was reechoed from wall to wall. It was the cry of a dumb desire to save the lambs. Finally they came to a level spot far above the foaming waters. Here they stop- ped to rest. Doc put down the lambs in a dry place and found another shel- ter for himself and Shep. There he sat down to wait for morning. The exertions of the day and night had tired him so he fell asleep. When he awoke the sky was clear. In the east the darkness had begun to give place to dawn. In the canyon below he could hear the raging of the flood- water. The stream must have risen at least twenty feet. The little plot where the lost sheep had been was completely covered. Doc stood up. After doing some ex- ercises to relieve the numbness in his limbs, he picked up the lambs again and started for the camp. Some- times the sheep would turn and look at Shep and stamp a foot. Shep would stop with a rather bashful ex- pression. Then the sheep would turn and run after her twins. Just as the sun’s rays were begin- ning to brighten the sky and to shine on the trees at the top of the canyon. Doc came around the bend which op- ened up to the camp. The sheep had already begun to graze on the neigh‘ boring hillsides. Jack was just com- ing in with the horses. ‘ “What a night it has been ” said Jack as soon as he came near enough to speak to Doc. "Yes it was an awful night, but I saved the sheep. Where is the hell you got?"

They showed us what could be done by their own initiative and persistence. The gym team has no one to cheer them on to When they tumble off from the parallels or the horizontal. the only encouragement they get is the admonition of the bump that they better not let it hap- pen again. Of course their nerves are sympathetic. bttt their sympathy is with the bump and not with the feelings of the gymnast. So with no apparent reward but that of sore muscles and bruises. the Augsburg gymnasts have labored thrtt the winter unnoticed by the out» side world. They work for no laurel of praise or approval. which is soon pushed back but they are earning a heritage of physi- cal perfection, bodily grace, and strength. something that is lasting. something that will assist them to mount to great altitudes in practical life. We have nothing but the highest praise to offer the eight members of the team for their splendid display of physical symmetry and bodily control. SUCCESS. into forgetfulness. \Ve, who haw had little opportunity to attempt acrobatic stunts. little realize how obstinate the body is in conforming with the wishes of its master and owner.

To top it all and to conclude the exhibition, Thorson and Farnham, two of coach Skurdalsvold’s acquaint- ances, demonstrated how it was done after years and years of untiring prac- tice.

He expressed regret mingled with a certain amount of relief with the re- moval of his duties as coach. He said that it was not because he had not enjoyed coaching, but because of the great burden of coaching and teach- ing, combined with numerous other duties that he felt it necessary to give up his position. In reviewing Augsburg’s athletic history. Mr. Melby commented on the excessive handicaps with which the coaches had to contend. such as the lack of equipment, the adverse critic- ism, and the small number of athletic- ally inclined men at Augsburg, “The Auggies at first had been the laugh- ing stock of the conference and were used by other teams to fatten their batting average," he said, “but they surprised everyone by their determin- ation and fight.~—two elements that are absolutely essential to any athletic organization to insure its success." In stepping out of the coaching po- sition, Mr. Melby expressed sadness because of the inevitable failures that have arisen, The Auggies, though, AUGSBURG SEMINARY, MINNEAPOLIS, MINN THURSDA Top row: AUGSBURG CHORAL SOCIETY; _ _Elsie Lokken, Barbara Stowell, Alice lllcllnye. clai-a Bl-rkke, Miriam Berg.

Mr. Melby expressed his gratitude to all those who have so faithfully assisted him as a coach. Prof. Sverr drup has been especially tolerant and helpful in establishing athletics on a sound basis. Mr. Melby praised the student body and the various teams for their unfailing support In closing he wished his successor, "choppy" Crose, whom he termed as the “brainlest player 1 have ever seen on a basketball floor," all kinds of good fortune, and urged that the var- ious teams give him unfailing sup- port, Mr. Melby's “coach-player," John Kolesar, was praised in com- menting on his fortune in obtaining brainy men for his teams. His appreciation was expressed to the general public, too, for their fine support, His last wish was that Augsburg might finally be placed on a high pedestal of fine sportsmanship, high ideals, and good morals, and that it would be among the leaders in every field of endeavor, Sociology Class To Conduct Survey The Sociology class under the direc- tion of Professor Walter Lundeen has undertaken a practical project by con- ducting an intensive survey of the col. lege students at Augsburg College. This survey will show a cross seer tion of the student life and it will re- veal what the student opinion is at this institution. Other colleges are conducting such surveys and in that way comparisons may be made. Much has been said about the opinions that college students have, but this will give actual facts bearing on the sub ject. The reports that the students are asked to fill out must give accurntc in- formation and be honest in every re~ spect if the survey is to be of value. The reports will be kept absolutely confidential as far as the individual student is concerned and everyone should be willing to make this survey a success. The class expects to com- plete the project in about two weeks. A song by the men‘s quartette opened the program Toasts by Wal- ter Johnson, "Dooley" Houser, Here man Tjon, and James Pederson fol- lowed. Walter Johnson is the base- ball captain for this year, while "Jim- mie" has been elected as captain of next year’s football squad. The Aca- demy athletes were represented by Al- bert Knutsen. These toasts were folr lowed by short talks by the coaches, r. William Leuhring, director of Athletics at the University of Minne- sota, gave the address of the evening. He talked about sportsmanship in in ter-collegiate athletics. He com- mented upon the fine showing Augs- burg athletes have made during their brief career in the conference.

Professor S. Melby presented the cup and spoke of the growing import- ance and value of intramural sports. The cup, donated by the college clas» ses, was accepted by captain Erling Christenren, who expressed for the sophomores their satisfaction at win» ning the championship and their in- tention to put up a hard right to re. tain the honor next year.

We are for- tunate in having a system of education which encourages indivi- dual activity. Besides this, we also have extra-curricular actIVl- ties which give each student the opportunity of developing his individual interests and talents. We should all take a vital part in some activity, but we must also exercise restraint in not joining too many of them. If this cannot be left to the student’s discretion, the restraint will have to be enforced through some other means. We believe that the point system of limiting activities would be a satisfactory and efficient scheme of carrying this out. Having too many activities works hardships in many direc- tions. Very often we have to sacrifice our studies if we are to be faithful members; and members who are not loyal are liabili- ties rather than assets. Then, too, by limiting the number of activities of each individual, more students would be given the opportunity of taking part and also assuming positions of leader- ship. Too much activity is destructive, likewise, too much leisure is a deadening influence upon creative thought. Activity must be purposive and sustained. Therefore, to make a success of our college education, we must establish a wise balance between activ- ity and restraint. Sophistication As in the scientific field we find many pseudo~scientists, so in colleges and universities we meet large numbers of sophisticated know-nothings, who have but sipped a few drops of the “Pierian spring“. They are known by their wind-inflated chests, their boldness, their sage but condescending counsel, their deprecating remarks concerning professors they scarcely know, their revolt against all precedent, and their understanding of all vital, difficult problems. Yes, they have already attained to their tremendously elevated ideal of making all knowledge theirs; and yet these same individuals are so young—they must be geniuses! Out of the rich, savoury field of almost unbounded dimensions it is simple enough to pick a specimen. An editorial—writer of one of our eastern Lutheran college papers believes that chapel hour should be used for students‘ consideration of school prob- lems and for social culture. It should not be used for inspira- tional purposes; no, for that would be about as ridiculous in our days as trying to make the world stand still, so he says. Then, for everyone's especial edification, comes this gem of philosophy as a punctuation: “Let ‘well enough’ be!" But we would add a roundingout statement: “Eat, drink, and be merry!" and live but to exist, for from these proceed genuine happiness. Isn't is puzzling that people should be so dull as to fail, under- standing that the more knowledge they absorb. the more infinite the amount to be absorbed becomes? The experiencing of this truth, it seems, should teach them humility to the infinite, omni- potent, and all-knowing force which is everywhere present. A person would think that they might desire daily communion with, and inspiration from, such a Source. Chapel Notes April ll. Rev. Karl Ermisch em~ phasixed the importance of the resur» rection of Christ. basing his talk on John 14:19, where Christ says “be- cause I live, ye shall live also." The enemies of Christ attack His resurrection because they know that it is vital and necessary to the saving power of Jesus. Only the living Christ can satisfy the restlessness and the longing in the human heart. The work of a Christian is not a drugery or a slavery. but it is a joy- ful and happy service to God. s his disciples after his resurrection as it is recorded in John 21:1»14. He showed how the disciples were unsuc- cessful when they sought to go their own way and go back to their former occupations Jesus appeared unto them time and time again in order to strengthen them and direct them in the work that he had outlined for them to do. Jesus is the same today. He is con- tinually calling and pressing in upon one's consciousness. Heed his call and do his will. a April 13. Prof. H. N. Hendrickson continued his talks on prayer, taking Exodus 34:43. 29415, as his text. He sid that it was not enough to only April 12. Rev. Selmer I-‘runstad spoke on Christ‘s third appearance to Round Table Analyzes Modem Narrative After having made a study of a few outstanding masterpieces of the short- story, the Round Table, at its last meeting, shifted its endeavors to the more modern narratives. The change was made in order to make possible a complete resume of this field of literature by the close of the school year. From its beginning, the year has been given over to the short-story and its technique. The construction of each story assigned for reading has been examined by the members in a discussion. and- an- nalyzed according to the fundamentals and rules set forth in Poe’s “Philo- sophy of (‘ ' ' ," “Mr. Travers’a First Hunt", by Richard Harding Davis, was the first of the modern stories to be analyzed. It was singled out merely as a type, and not because of merit. In accordance with the rules of Poe. the first sentence strikes the key» note of the story by introducing the preconceived effect. “Young Travers, who had been engaged to a girl down on Long Island for the last three months, only met her father and brother a few weeks before the day set for the wedding." This initial does not only reveal the emo- tional tone, but also sugests that plot is the predominant element of the nar- rative. The author’s main purpose in writ- ing was to tell a good story. His or- iginal intention was to develop a slightly humorous plot through the be» havior of one main character. The theme or moral plays a subordinate part in the story, and is hinged upon the outcome of the plot. It may be summed up in these words, courage has its reward. The narrative tells of a young man who, not knowing how to ride, risks his life on a fiery steed to please his sweetheart's father and gain his con— sent to marry the girl. After the youth has accomplished his task to the satisfaction of the father the story logically closes with the youth receiv- ing permission to marry the girl he loves. The preestablished design has been developed with the greatest economy of means. Only three characters are used in developing the plot which is also made up of three closely con— nected incidents. There are no digres— sions, every Word has a part in bring- ing out the intended efiect. The time element is limited to a single day, while the setting is as narrowed as effect will allow. dire/large: “The Mmlitoll Messenger” Fourteen members were elected to the Pi Kappa Delta national debating fraternity. The coach, Harry L. Pear- son, earned a key in the degree of in- struction. Dr. Martin Hegland, head of the res ligion department, has put out a manual as to how to organize and conduct institutes in Young People‘s Work. It “The Gushwl'un Weekly" A local chapter of the Pi Gamma Mu, honorary social science society, was organized. There are twenty- four charter members. At the meet- ings of this society scientific problems will be discussed. This is certainly a worthwhile achievement to the social science students. “College Chips" Upton Close, recognized authority on Chinese affairs and well known lyceum lecturer, spoke in the C. K. Preus gymnasium. Mr. Close has spent ten years in Russia and China. While in China he edited the Peking "Daily". He has written several books on conditions in the East. experience God’s saving power if one desired to live a successful Christian life. He stressed the importance of ssnctifican’on—a process whereby one may be transformed into the likeness of Christ. The Christians’ chief weakness is due to a lack of prayer. Prayer is uecegary to sanctificafion and it is one of the best ways by which one may be strengthened in the Christian faith. ® ACADEMY s Editorial Wehavebeentryingallyearto bring home some sort of a champion- ship or trophy. We tried basketball, declaratory, and debate before we finally succeeded in winning first place in oratory. We have been successful even if we haven't always come out on top. Our teams and representatives in these contests have had that “never say die" spirit which is always re- warded. We are deeply indebted to our winner for bringing Augsburg Academy the coveted “first place." However, the school yur is not over yet.

Civics Students Hold Mock Trial It was in a dark and dusty court room. A breach of promise suit was in progress. Ah, what sickening scan~ do] was revealed. The plaintiff was suing for ten-thousand dollars as balm for her broken heart. As she told her heart-rending tale, even some of the most austere of the jury could not refrain from wiping away a few sympathetic tears. The court was shocked to heart that the defendant had been seen riding down La Palina Ave., St. Paul, late one evening in the company of a strange girl. It was equally shocking to hear that the plaintiff had shown a great deal of interest in a certain young man at a particular Christmas party. What should be done? The jury left the court-room in mystery and silence as they adjourned to decide the verdict. or death? To himiwould it mean wealth or bankruptcy? The jury re- turned with the verdict of acquittal with the defendant paying the court expenses. Sighs of relief were heard as the Academy civics class was ex» cused after listening to a suit in which Gladys Oudal charged Julian Foss with breach of promise.

Med freidig mot jeg straver til like for mig hen beskjeden frem den stiger, Augsburg Wins Oratorical Contest The Academy has made a name for itself along another line of scholastic activities, namely, oratory. Last Wednesday night Jack Sitco- hof and John Kalle went over to Be- thel Academy to compete in the An- nual Oratorical Contest held between the four Academies: Minnehaha, Min- nesota College, Bethel, and Augsburg Academy. The program, opened with song and prayer, was both interesting and bene- ficial, for the topics discussed ranged all the way from “Married Women in Industry," to “Crime”. 0n the merits of his excellent presentation of "The Mystery of Israel," Mr. Jack Siten- hof claimed the silver trophy cup for Augsburg. In his oration he pictured vividly the undying perserverance o! the Jew and pointed out how the hand of God had led them through untold sufieringa and persecution. He end~ ed with an earnest plea for brotherly love and friendly relationship toward the Jew John Kalle also did fine work in delivering his oration entitled “The Quest for Peace.” Both contestants have spent much time and thought in the preparation of their oration: and deserve much credit for their willing- ness to take upon themselves this ex- tra work.

This closes a very success» ful debate season for the Academy. 60/109: and Waco/mes From Minneapolis Journal, 1904: “Professor Sven Oftedal was kid- napped early last evening by a small party of students of Augsburg Sem- min egen kjaere grund.

Quite a number took the stand to lead better lives by surrendering themselves fully to the services of Jesus Christ. min garnle snilde far. Med haanden slap de viftet, jag svang min hat til svar.

The success of the performance was insured by the excellent dramatic ef- fects brought out by several of the characters. Harold Davis, as the cruel and crafty Haman, was the outstand— ing character. The contempt he bore to the Jews and especially to the good man, Mordecai, shone from under his wicked black brows. and every word he uttered was full of intense hatred. The proud spirit was broken, however, when he saw that he was losing favor with the King. When he tremblingly threw himself at the feet of Queen Esther, begging for mercy, the true nature of his character was revealed, as one who fears as strongly as he hates. Quiet dignity characterized Queen Esther, as played by Rose Haffey. She looked striking in her robe of white, standing with uplifted head, praying God for the salvation of her tribe. The live Jewish maids, kneeling at the left rear of the stage, chanting pray- ers to the same God, completed the impressive scene. True anguish of heart was shown in the character of King Ahasuerus, when he spent a sleepless night, re- viewing his past, doubtful deeds. Eds win Olsen very ably took the part of the king. Marie Halvorson, as Rachel, and Thomas Spande, as Hydaspas, de- serve mention, as taking their parts very well. Clifl'ord Sather did equally well in his role as Mordecai. Other characters in the cast were: Asaph .... .. .. Walter Evans Zeresh Elsie Lokken Ghost Harold Davis Guards .Adolph Winther Harold Farnes Chorus . .. Katharine Sverdrup Oletta Wald Helen Wallin Myrtle Juberg Helen Michaelsen. The selections rendered by the or- chestra, under the direction of Miss Gasrde, added to the success of the play. The members of the four literary societies, who sponsored the presenta- tion, wish to thank Miss Selma Storien for her successful work as director, and also Miss Jennie Skurdalsvold for composing the music for the choruses. AthletichjnqueI Held At Columbia Chateau (Continued from page 1) President Sverdrup gave a talk in which he showed what “Si” has meant to Augsburg and its athletes. Another musical number by the quartette, a solo by Miss Skurdals- vold, and a piano solo by Katharine Sverdrup were other numbers that ad- ded to the success of the program. The special feature of the even- ing’s entertainment was the radio pro- gram given after the banquet. Elsie Lokken and Arthur Grimstad demon- strated their ability at the dials by “tuning in" on many famous artists. A quartette from the Willmar station was heard, followed by a comet solo. and a number of piano duets. Beat- rice Helland was heard in a reading, “Bobby Shaftoe", an dthe two Knutes demonstrated their ease at using lengthy words. George Tangvald, Augsburg's star orator, spoke elo- quently on “Farm Relief”. At 10:20 announcer “Butch” Johnson signed ofi until the year 1930. Miss Caspar:Christensen of Will» mm- was a weekend visitor with Ma- rie Johnson. The Augsburg Orchestra gave a con- cert last Sunday afternoon It Central Lutheran Church. o Miss Mortensen entertained at a 6 o’clock dinner on Tuesday evening at East Hall. s We wonder if the happy spirit pre- vailing among the campus CHdS is due tn the fact that rules have been slightly changed? They can now be out until 9 o'clock. Kristofer Hagen Elect- ed Senior Class Speaker The Senior class of ’29 has chosen Kristofer Hagen for their class speaker at the Commencement exer» cises to be held June 5. His experience as a public speaker led the class to believe that he would be able to promulgate the ideals of the class efficiently. He has taken active part in debate during the whole of his college career, and twice participated in the College Oratorical Contest. Last summer he spent the greater part of his time touring the country as a member of the Gospel Quartette. Here, too, he had ample opportunity to cultivate the art of speaking. The “Dial” —A. F. Along with the spring fever that most of us are enjoying there is also another fever, or, perhaps, rather an intense impatience to see the “Dial” of which we have all heard so much. “When’s it coming?” we question. Well, yesterday I met somebody down the Auggie hall who seemed to know a trifle more about it than anyone else. He told me a great deal about what the “Dial” will contain and also just when it 'will make its triumphal entry. I thought this news was far too good to keep, so I have persuaded the editor of the “Echo” to slip in this little article about it in order that your suspense might be somewhat al~ leviated. Yes, even before you read another issue of the “Echo”, the “Dial” shall have echoed and reechoed through the minds of the Auggies, for it will be here on April thirtieth. The “Dial” will contain some ex- cellent literature including short stories, essays, and poetry. All of us who are lovers of poetry will receive a particular benefit, for some excellent selections of poetry have been sent in. One especially is a gem, a very timely and interesting poem written by Mr. J. J. Skurdals» vold from the class of 18 . In anti— cipation we appreciate this fact imr mensely and will do so even more when we are actually permitted to read their words. But not only from the experienced pen of an alumnus has there come articles for the “Dial”. Also from those younger in years and in ex- perience, yet bubbling over with the enthusiasm of living, from our own Auggies—there will be selections very worthwhile and interesting. We have all heard about the State- wide essay contest staged by one of the Augsburg literary societies. The prize-winning essay of this contest will also be included, so we shall be given a taste of the best writing of the State High Schools of Minnesota Only—more days and the “Dial” will be here! Let‘s speed over that time by reminding any who have not as yet heeded the call of the “Dial”, and by arousing their enthusiasm and interest in a production so worthwhile their support as is the Dial. HERMAN LARSON Photographer 270! EAST LAKE SYREET Dupoal 1m upon] Duet-wilt to unident- Seniors On Parade In the fall of ‘25, a class of aspir- ing Freshmen invaded the sacred pre- cincts of our College with a spirit of die." Now, time has passed and great changes have been brought about. The class of ’29 is still with us, but— oh, how changed! Who would ever immagine that in four short years those verdant, irresponsible Freshmen could develop into such wise, dignified Seniors'.’ Their zero hour is now near at hand. Let us Watch them as they file before us in their last parade. Pear] Aanstad leads the class. We see in Pearl an industrious and trust» worthy student. We under-grads Wonder how we can ever get along without Pearl’s assistance on the varv ions committees so essential to the school. As we pass on we see a face not quite so familiar. Thora Anderson has been with us but one year, but in that time she has made a name for herself in Augsburg's scholastic circ- les. We hope that Miss Anderson’s brief stay at Augsburg has been as pleasant for her as it has been for us. As the proceession wends onward, we see next in line Mr. and Mrs. Ar- nold. We shall remember Luther and Clarette as the first married couple at Augsburg. They have both spent four years with us; so we all join to wish them great happiness throughout life. Lewis Berge comes nextidriving his Ford. 01' course we all know Lewis. We’ll remember his smile and cheery wordsiamong other things. The class of ‘29 is not satisfied in drawing members from the immediate Vicinity. Sylvan Bestul hails from the distant state of Washington. If all the young men in Washington are of Syl’s caliber, We wish that more would come to Augsburg. Almost hidden by an armful of books comes the next “candidatus”, Jessie Christensen, whom we all re- cognize as a student. Now, don’t think that Jessie limits herself to stu- dies alone. She is also very promin- ent in extracurricular activities about the campus. Well, here we have the most hon. orable president of the W. A. A., Glendora Dueland. Thoughts of “Dooley” will invariably bring memo- ries of basketball, volleyball, tennis, and other sportsialso tabogganing. Immediately behind “Dooley” comes Agnes Eldevik. Agnes is quiet and “and, by acting true to her nature. she has Won the well deserved respect and love of all her fellowstudents. Emil Ellingson doesn’t say much, but then "still waters run deep." We know that when Emil does say some- thinggwhy, it"s time for us to stop and listen. Anyway, you can’t bluii him with any Math problems. T. V.

GYM-CRACKS And Otherwise Last week's snow set the baseball and rootliull squads hack a full week in progrc. . with the opening game but a few days hence Choppy's dia- iuoinl aspirants are drilling feverishly. . With a \‘ctt-run team back in the fold St. Olaf looms up as an outstandr iug contender for state honors this spring Gustavus has a wealth of new mutcriul and a nucleus of lettervnien. St. Thomas is a doubtful factor, as is St. Johns. Augsburg is missing sevr t-ral old focus. notably Louis Hanson nild Harold Anson. but has added some new players, too. Thats the lay- out. Mr. Baseball Fan. take your pick! - “Cherry” Madsen has been smitten with the horeshoe mania. His cure was regarded as a possibility, but news of the proposed “barnyard golf” tournament Scnt the patient into a re- lapse. He has an insatiable longing for ringers and takes his morning workout at “Davey-‘5" eating place by looping doughnuts over salt shakers. so it is claimed. Proposed feature match for the horse shoe tournament: “Speed” Lille- hei rs “Butch” Johnson. . All joking aside, we wonder how Captain Tjon looks out there in North Dakota sitting on his John Deere tractor reading Peder Victori- ous as he goes up and down the field while overhead floats that Augsburg banner. (Note. A few of the boys presented the gym team captain with I copy of “Peder Victon'ous” and an Augsburg banner before he left] e Many Veterans 7 7 Report For Baseball New Material Looks Promising The Augsburg baseball camp is not exactly shrouded in gloom these days. Twenty-five men have responded to their new coache's call among whom are listed practically the entire line- up of last year's regulars. several of the 1927 team, and a number of new men. Harold Aasen, backbone of Guzy’s mound staff last spring, is missing. 30 is his battery mate, Louis Hanson Adolph Winther, veteran of the ’2? team, has been getting the call for first string backstop over “Rube” Johnson in practices thus far. “Si” Daniclson has also had some exper- ience behind the plate and is available for duty. MANLEY Looxs Goon Arthur Houser and Otto Rortvcdt remain from last year's hurling corps. Both are also capable first-sacked. Of the new pitchers, Victor Manley of last year's University of Illinois' frosh team, looks best. He tartcd working out regularly indoors over a month ago and already appears in midrscason form. Captain Walter Johnson at third, Mona at second, and either “Shorty” or “Dooley” at first are all veterans. Thies of the fresh and Engbrctson. a veteran, will fight it out for the short stop berth. Crosc’s infield should be a fast one, and early season workouts tend to lleal‘ out that statement. Bestul, Philstrom. Madsen, Kolesnl', and Anderson are veteran fly-chascrs who will furnish plenty of conipcti» tion for the outfield berths. Then there is “Haul” Blix, George Selc, Eldevik. Decker, Olson, Norum, McReynolds. and “Art” Amundsen. freshman pitcher. Twenty Gridders Re- spond To Spring Call Skurdalsvold and Pederson Direct Men Twenty ambitious aspirants for Coach Con Ecklund's football machine answered the first call for spring foot- ball last week. The work-outs are under the leadership of :aptain-elect Pederson and athletic director, “Mugs” Skurdalsvold. The first workouts have consisted almost entirely of settingrup exercises and rudimentary football, but have been provocative of a large number of “charle,\'»horses" and stiff backs. A number of last year’s football men have been appearing regularly but theru is a great deal of satisfac- tion in noting the number of new can- didates. Many of the veterans are out for baseball this spring and w ll not re» ceive this preliminary football train- Ing. Rev.

The season of poe- try is come! The trees are leaving and life is revealing itself in nature. The trees ure leaving and the birds are singing. This is the season of the year when fat men with grey check- ered trousers begin to play golf, and lean men with grey checkered trous- ers begin to play golf and long, thin, tall men with grey checkered trous- ers begin to play golfi This is the season of the year when sap starts flowing in the campus trees and saps go flowing through the col- lege park. This is the time in which every would be poet sits on the win- dow sill and tries to find a word to rhyme with “dove” and “true.” There is a time for everything— One of these is love. The tune for love is spring, but when you get love it is everything to you, and after that any season of the year is spring. Here I shall take the privilege to mis-quote a line from Tennyson. “In the spring a young mans fancy lightly turns"— from thoughtsibo love. Even great poets have recognized this. There is much philosophic thought vented on love. Much of this is not. gotten from the laboratory of life and is therefore not scientific. When nature beckons at every hand, then Beauty is queen. Then every young man feels sorry for all the others because they can‘t have his girl. “There are fairer maidens in Scot— land, by far, than any of these” quoth the young Lochinvar. Then why didn't Lochinvar go to Scotland? Be- cause he loved this girl, and perhaps she wasn't so deplete of feminine charm either. We often wonder how some people, rather innocent of beau- ty and to whom nature has been stingy, if not spiteful,—can see so much in each other. Yet these per- sons go to the movies and pat them» selves on the back and think—“I sure- ly was lucky to get my lover before the movies did!" One cynic has said, “Love is like a ad cold; you don’t know what it is until you‘ve had it. you‘re miserable while it lasts, and it is very hard to get rid of." Another Augsburgian has said, “Love is missdirected devotion." But in spite of the cynic the lover goes on. Each succeeding generation of lovers catches the contagion and succumbs (usually, for life.) l. E. “'ILSON L. Wilson-Manson Plumbing [10. PLUMBING and HEATING 2MB RIVERSIDE AVE.
