FOREWORD The evening shadows fade into the deep and mystica! past. On the horizon are the silhouettes of those who have gone on before us. We see them—workmen, students, teachers—all who have made our school what it is. They once stood where we stand now. but have since, with the passing of time, proceeded into the shadows; and now we may . see their silhouettes as the monuments of our great heritage and the blueprint of experience and wisdom from which we are to be taught. Bold and stalwart pioneers have plowed the field, planted the seed, worked the soil and cultivated it in their day of labor, that we, who follow at the harvest, may reap the abundance which has been planted for us. As we wield the sickle and reap the harvest, may we also sow' the seed in our springtime that when we enter into the shadows, those who take our place may find rich and abundant fields.

IN MEMORIAM H. N. Hendrickson HENRIK N. HENDRICKSON (1869-1953) Henrik Norman Hendrickson was bom in Vik, Helgo- land, Norway, March 30, 1869. He was bom the year that Augsburg Seminary was founded, and almost all his adult years he lived at or near Augsburg. He graduated from Augsburg College in 1891 and after a year at National Nor- mal University at Lebonon, Ohio, and two years at the Uni- versity of Minnesota, he entered Augsburg Seminary. After his graduation he served a congregation in Superior, Wis- consin. for three years. In 1900 he was called to Augsburg to teach. He held the position of registrar for thirty-one years and served as acting president in 1937-38 after the death of President George Sverdrup. In fifty-two years of teaching at Augsburg he missed only four days of teaching because of illness. Prof Hendrickson’s interest in music and history will be remembered by all who were fortunate enough to know him. His devotion to Augsburg and his work here will remain as a great monument to a great man. Ragna Sverdrup RAGNA MARIE SVERDRUP (1885-1953) For all who knew her. Miss Sverdrup’s name and per- sonality will remain as inseparably linked with Augsburg as those of her father, Georg Sverdrup. She gave her life- time service to Augsburg, serving more than forty years as treasurer. She will be remembered for her unswerving faith- fulness to Augsburg and the Lutheran Free Church, her cheerful and unassuming personality, the atmosphere of quietness and confidence which accompanied her presence, and her readiness to be of service whenever possible. As we thank God for the servant He gave us in Miss Sverdrup, may her devotion continue to inspire us to greater service. 4
