Andreen, President of Augustana College and Theological Seminal? was born at Porter, Indiana, March 13. 1864. When only a few years Of age 111-5 parents moved to Swedona, Illinois. Here he received his early education. When eleven year: old he entered the preparatory department of Augustana. In six years he graduated from the college at the had of his class UBBD. He remained at Augustana as a teacher during the years 1562-1884, at the same time preparing himself for the profession of a. lawyez. During the years 1386-1393, he served as a teacher at Bethany College, Lindsborg, Kansas. He entered Yale University as a postgraduate student the following year. From 1894 to 1898 he served as instructor in German at Yale University. at the same time studying for his degree of Doctor of Philosophy, which he recived in 1398. Thereupon he was called to the professorship of Norse and Scandinavian Ianguages and literature of Yale University. To prepare himself further for this purpose. Dr. Andreen spent two years at the Universities of Uppala. Sweden, and Christiania, Norway. aim making a tour through Germany. Dr. Andreen assumed his new duties at Yale University in the fall of 1900. The same year Dr. Olsson. President of Augustana, died. At the meeting of the Augustana Synod in Jamestown, N1 Y. in 1901, Dr. Andreen was unanimously elected President of Augustana College ancl Theological Seminary. He was installed as President of his Alma Mater the seventeenth of October. 1901. President Andreen saw from the beginning what were the immediate needs of the institution. of which he now was the head. He began at mice to make provisions for putting the school on a solid financial basist He made a journey to Sweden to enlist the sympathy of the leading men of that country for the work in the way of Christian education that was being done by Swedish descendants on this side of the Atlantic. His efforts were successful. As a result of his work one hundred thousand crown were subscribed for a professorship at Augustana. to be known as the Oscar II professorship in honor of the king. who was among the donors. During the last three years President Andreen has been engaged in raising an endowment fund of a quarter of a million dollars, a task which he by his untiring efforts and with the assistance of able co-workers has successfully accomplished. Through his earnest endeavors, it also is, that the institution has been given the magnihcient Denkmann Memorial library which is now in course of erection on the college grounds. Besides his incessant work in the interest of the institution President Andreen has also had time for study, which led to his ordination as a minister of the Augustana Synod in 1905. As Augustana celebrates its Fiftieth anniveIsary. it has at its head a man. whose unceasing devotion to duty commands our greatest admiration; a man ever mindful of the best interesb of the institution of which he is the head. and sacrificing himself in order that they may be attained. at ! 301! mu um, m HE present year is a most eventful one in the history at Augustana. It is our Jubilee Year, the celebration of our Fiftieth Anniversary. From an humble ggg'g beginning fifty years ago, our school has grown until it today ranks as one iii of the leading colleges of the middle West. The object of The Jubilee is to present to the students. alumni and many friends of Augustana an historical review of cm past; to portray the various phases of college life at the present; and to serve as a mile-stone an the journey towards a Greater Augustine. I! is a story of the past and the present, and a glimpse of future possibilities. In it we tell of the things which yuu and your friends have done. We oHer it to you that you may not forget what has been accomplished here. Its aim is to present the spirit of the school, and to serve the purpose of reviving and adding to the spirit of loyalty. It is hoped that these pages will Iecall many pleasant memories and that they will inspire new Zeal and affection for Augustana. If. as a Iesul'l of our humble eHorts, The Jubileeu shall preserve the happy mem- cries and traditions which will deepen ancl intensify the love and reverence we cherish for our Alma Mater. we are content. uThe Jubilee stall oH'ers this, the product at their toil to the fair judgment of the men and women of Augustana. If to you we may seem to have succeeded, we shall count ourselves as highly rewarded; eTI-u; JUBILEE STAFF. ,nz:$w..:0m waJJOU zo Hmmg 925.501. 5.24.5205: 0H 43 wt... a I Shietnrtcal HERE was a time when Zion hill attracted no particular attention. In those rm: clays it was designated on the map of Rock Island in the manner that hills or r mountains are usuaIIy designated on a map. That was all the attention it 'Qi received; and that was all the attention it deserved. In those days Zion Wig, hill was only a huge bluE overgrown with aak-trees. and there was about it nothing peculiar. To-day there is, however. a very different story to tell. You may go to any state of our Union, yes, you may go to many a foreign land and to distant continents. and someone you wilt hunt is there who loves it, someone with fond memories inseparably connected with it. There is a reason for this. Thirtyuhve years ago Zion hill became the home of an institution of learning, which justly boasts the distinction of being the center of Swedish-American culture. Thirty-five yeaIs ago the little Swede.I mllege came and 'iA mighty beacon bright stood tirrn founded on the bin. Thus it has come to pass that the unce wiId and rugged bluff has been transformed into an Atlas in miniature, and bears upon its stout shoulders at little world of busy activity. ofhciaIIy known as. HAugustama College and Theological Seminary. In the year of 1860. April 23-27. a convention of Scandinavian Lutherans was held at Chicago. The purpose of the convention was to organize an indenpendent Scandinavian church body and to establish a Theological Seminary. In the early forties. immigrants had begun coming from the Scandinavian countries to make their homes in America. During the years that immediately followed the number of those coming over increased very rapidly. Most of them settled in the Middle West states. They weie a pious and churchly people, these fathers of our Synod, and no sonner had- they established themselves in their frontier homes, than they organizeti themselves into Congregations, under the leadeiship of earnest and devout men, who heading the call had come over with them. some from the beginning of the movement. These pastorS, men strong in faith and clear of head, saw from the outset the needs of their perIe and, as sub- sequent history has well borne out, knew how to provide against them. It eariy became obvious, that the supply of religinus workers was not for any length of time or to any great extent to be looked for from across the Atlantic, but must come from among the immigrants themselves. In order that this might be accomplished, and the work here be pushed with greater energy and larger results be gained, it was imperative that the congregations shnuid he hraught together into a central organization. and that a Theulogical Seminary should be established. The hrst steps in this direction were made when the Scandinavian: afhliated themselves with other Lutheran bodies for the organization of what became known as, The Evangelical Lutheran Synod of Northern Illinois, in the year at IB5I. The Synud established a school under the name, uThe Illinois State University,n Iueated at Springfield, Illinois. In 1355, a B uht A . ltl ale? Scandinavian professorship was establisheii. The chair of the professorship was occupied by Rev. L. P. Eshjorn. The Scandinavians. however, soon realized, that to continue this relationship with the other church bodies would not. for any length of time, prove satisfactory or beneficial. The reasons why they wished a separation were mostly of a doctrinal nature. They reaiizcd that they must stand alone Eghting their own battles if they desired to preserve intact the faith of their fathers. And so We Find them convened at Chicago in the year H360 and to this convention we may trace the beginnings of Augustana Synod and of Augustana College. Our college then takes its beginning as a Scandinavian institution, and it continues to be that, the first ten years of its existence. In I870. however. a great change takes place. With expressions of mutual respect and well wishes. the Norwegians and Swedes separated. From that time on Augustana College is a Swedish institution The first home of the school was in Chicago, where it remained for only three years. During this period. Rev. L. P. Esbjom occupieci the presidenFs chair. It had been owing to his resignation from the Scandinavian chair of the Illinois State University that the final determinatiun to sever relations with this institution and the church bodies which it represented had been reached. When Rev. Esbjurn resigned from his position and left the institution he was followed by ail the Scandinavian students then enrolled. There were at this time twentyvone in number. It was with these students that the new work was begun. The then existing conditions made Chicago seem an unsuitahie location. It was deemed advisable to locate at some point with prospects For the future for a larger Scandinavian settlement. Paxton. near the center of Illinois, seemed such a place, and besides the Illinois Central Railroad made a liberal offer in the price of some land, which it wished to sell, on condition that the school, locate there. In consequence the schcul was moved thither in the year 1863. When the school was removed to Paxton. Rev. Esbiorn resigned from his position as president. Hi5 place was taken by Dr. T. N. Hasselquist, who served as president until his death in IS9I. Contrary to expectations, Paxton was not to become the permanent hume of the institution. The first oE'icial mention of removal is made as early as 1869. It was not however, until four years later that the decision to remove was reached. Inducements had been offered from various localities. These inducements failed in some cases to be Iealizeti, in others they were not satisfactory. Finally a motion of the Synod authorized the Board of Directors to locate within Knox. HenryorRock-IslandCounties. In Rock Island and Molina of Rock Island County there were large Hourishing Swedish settlements. Both cities desired the school in their vicinity and although as large an amount of money as had been hoped for could not he raised as art inducement for locating here the Board never- theless settled upon a place situated about half way between them. The spot selected has since been known as Zion hill, 5 name eriginating from that combination of a sense of humor and of religiousness which seems always to have been so peculiarly blended in the nature of Augustana students. The place at the time when the college came was an isolated spot, surrounded by large tracts of woad-land. A more beautiful or suitable ID .mrlllf mmuiiim'lm 1 9-31 wmum . mtmmrmml MusPELHEM SECOND COLLEGE BUILDING IN FAme. ILL i W anew 09 place for the location of an institution of learning could scarcely have been found. The cities on each side have with each succeeding year grown larger and have crowded themselves almost to the doors of the institution. Some years ago during the very rapid expansion which was taking place aesthetical effects seemed to have been lost sight of. Almost the only place to retain a proper respect for the beautiful was the immediate college grounds. But that has been remedied now. We now may boast a beauty of location equal with. perhaps surpassing. that which was our early heritage. The environment has beyond question played a significant part. in student life. Perhaps the beauty ohiocation as much as any other one thing has inspired in the hearts of those pursuing studied here that devotion for the Alma Mater so manifest in them all even after long years of absence. Be that as it may, who is there having come uncler the influence of the beauty. which here presents itself both in the near vicinity and in the far distance as viewed from the college grounds. that has not brought away with him some of its poetry. st3 of its inspiration? On the thirty-three acre or lhere-abouts, which comprise our college campus there are today besides residence buildings, five buildings used for school purposes. They are: the Old building, Ladies Hall. the New building. Ericsen Hall. and the Gym- nasium. There is also now under construction a Library building donated by the Denkmann family of Rock Island. which when completed will eclipse any building of its kind owned by any institution of our standing within the State of Illinois. When the College family in the year 1875 came to begin its work in Rock Island, the old building was not yet completed. The entire school family, ptofessors and students moved into this one building and all class work Was done within its walls. Now the only class work clone in this building is that of the Commercial department. It also contains the dining hall and serves as the Men's Dormitory. The building. though old. is substantial, and having been remodeled from time to time, now has many of the modern conveniences necessary to make it an ideal dormitory. The new college building has been occupied since the beginning of 1636. Other buildings have been erected tram time to time as the work and attendance at the institu- tion have required additional conveniences. The work at the institution the First years. though not entirely of a theological nature, was composed of such branches of study as pertained more exclusively to a preparation for the life of a pastor. For this reason the Classical course was the only one taught in the college department until as late as ISSO. Gradually. however, the work has been branching out and made to cover larger fields. In the college depa-rtv ment there are now six distinct courses of instruction all leading to the degree of Bachelor of Liberal Arts. These courses are as follows: The Classical, Modern Language, Latin Scientilic, General Science. PreaMedieal. and the Mathematical. The primary purpose of the institution has not. however. been lost sight of. A thorough course in Christianity is obligatory in the pursuit of any of these six groups of study. A strong course in the Swedish language and literature may also be taken in connection with any of the groupsv The Swedish language has always been a strong factor at Augustana and will remain so as long as conditions in the congregations of our Synod demancl ex- l2 mxmzuih 5: Lo uxo: 5:. w: 3: 222:9? sol mu; m: 3. :3. 33:5 8.3:: 9.: :1: 4.3.x: 7: $29.53 uwujou 955. :zmndquxm; l3 Suki . wtwh tensive Swedish work. In the early days Swedish Was the only medium of instruction. Now the English language is the medium of instruction in all branches except in the Swedish which is taught as a special branch. As a special chair the Swedish language will always continue to be taught. As the courses of instruction have gradually been extended anti their scope en- larged. there has been from time to time an enlargement along the lines of departments. The Theological department was naturally the primary and for some years the oniy department, Out at the Theological the College and Academic departments developed through a natural process of growth. In addition to these departments we have new five others: The Normal, Conservatory, Alt, Elocution. and the Business Departments, The Normal course is pursued in connection with the Academy and the College with special attention given to such subjects as constitute Normal work. As early as l576 instruction began in book-keeping but it was not until i885 that we had a complete business course in a separate department. The musical element has aiways been One of the characteristics of Augustana. The first musical organization macie its appearance in the early clays at Paxton. Vocal music has been especially prominent, and as early as 1880, an Oratorio Society was organized through the efforts of Dr. 0. Olssnn. Dr. Olsson was at the time one at the professms of the Seminary. He later, in 1891 was elected to the presidency to succeed Dr. Hasselquist. Dr. Olsson had during a visit in England had the opportunity of hearing Handel's Messiah rendered; He returned with enthusiastic determination to organize an Oratorio Society here at home. The society was organized. The first tour was made in IBM, the chorus rendering pmgrams at Rock Island. Moline and towns in the vicinity. The fullcwing year more extensive tours were made, a trip being made even as far as Lindshurg. Kansas. It is from this organization that our Conservatory of Music had its beginnings, though any mention is not made in the College catalogue until the year 1356. lnstructicn in singing haul, hy the way, been given as eariy as l873. The musical organizations which for a longer or a shorter time Hourished have been various in nature and plentiful in number. Among those now existing the must prominent are, perhaps, the Wennerherg Chorus, the Chapel Chair. and the College Band. Very Closely connected with the Conservatory are the Art and Elocution depart- ments. Instruction has been given in bath departments since the year 1897. The entire numher nf students who have attended Augustana. is 12,000. From the College department, theie have been 542 graduates. The hrst class to graduate with the degree of Bachelor of Arts was the class of '577. The class was composed of six members. The largest number of graduates from any one department has been from the Business depattmcnt,f740. and the smallest number has been from the Normal department-i32. From the Theological department. there have been 659 graduates and from the Conservatoryefll Several Master of Arts degrees and two l4 FIRST COLLEGE BUILDING. ROCK WSLAND. ILL. I 5 ahtgfbhllh C. S.

Student life, in the Paxton days, and during the hrst period at Rock Island, pre- i sent: in some respects phases diHering very much from the present The students of i the early clays were as a rule. older men than those of the present time, and their views ii i of life were naturally more sober. During the days of Paxton. school life can best be ii compared to the life in a large Familyi Dr. Hasselquist was looked upon more in the il i light of a father than in that of the President. The students had various dutites, in il : the nature of chores, to perform such duties as chopping ancl sawing wood. They were even known to work in the heids on the college farm. Tu Shirk one's chores or rebel , against the established order invariably brought upon the deiinquent one the displeasure i I of Dr. Hasselquist. In fact. drones were not tolerated by the students themselves. t i As a spirit of piety and religiousness preveiied in the school circle those whose interests i were not in harmony with the standard such a condition set up. soon became unnum- i i furtable and usually left of their own accord. Generally harmony prevailed but -i - occasionally disagreements would rutHe the tranquillity. These disturbances usually were in the nature of Arguments indulged in between those of the students who had he come Americanized and those who carried with them the inHuences of previous training i in Sweden. The disagreements were. however, mostly on the surface and as time t I went on the difterent factions learned better to understand and appreciate each othetis- views and life long friendships often resulted. The students of Paxton fame are not to be thought of merely as austere, puritanistic beings, The humozous was by no means excluded from among them. As remnants from the humorous phase of the life there have come down to us several stories and anecdotes. One of the most interesting features of their love for fun we find in the names attached by them to the different buildings. The place where their meals were taken was called, Valhalla. because pork quite frequently appeared on the hill of fate. The home of Dr. Hasselquist was called, Asagard. Other builciings bore the names i i'Muspeihem. Nifelhem, and Ragnarok. One builtfing was called Skarselden. That Was the place where examinations were given. Gradually as the student body increased in number and varying conditions created new eicments of interest. the student life took on a diHerent appearance. The change however graaually became more pronounced as the initial years at Rock Island were added to history. During those first years of the Rock Island peIiDd much at the usimplicity at life was retained. Each student, for example. was required to keep his own room swept and clean and to make his own bed. and was expected to wait upon himself at meals. Each one was to keep himself supplied with an oil can, a custom, which, by the way, prevailed until recent years. There are many sadlyahumemus experiences on record in connection with those oil cans. If the supply of Upplysning should suddenly give out of an evening when the stores were closed the mental vision might be badly impaired the following day in the class room. The primitive mode of exercise at Augustana was as we have mentioned the use of the buck saw 01' similarly useful instruments. When the school was removed to Rock 16 niv, c M, Essmnm nzv c. l. swzussom Raw, 1. n EnMnAHL REV M. WAHLSTROM REV c.

Its place was taken by athletics and gymnastics of a more general nature. In time the work was organized into a definite system and for several years Augustena was abreast with its sister institu- tions of Illinois in athietic contests. Some yeaxs being decidedly in the lead. In the year, 1906. the Synod. however, placed a ban on all inter-coilegiate athletic contests. Literary work. independent of the class roam, has always enlisted much attention. Among the literary societies, which have exercised the greatest inEunce on student iife are the Phrenokesmian organized the same year as the institution was founded; the Adelphic, organized the same year that the institution became co-educational. or l833. and the Concordiai organized in i893. These three societies composed what is known as the Lyceum. The Lyceum conducts yearly a course of entertainments and pub- lishes the Augustana Observer. Some years back debates formed an important part of the programs rendered befure the literary societies. This branch of work has now been almost wholly taken over by smaller dehating clubs. There are at the present day three strong debating clubs at the institution. These clubs have not eonhned their work to the home institution alone. but have from time to time selected representatives to measure strength with debaters of sister institutions. Such contests have been carried on under the auspices of the College League-teumpcsed of the four college classiest, but will in the future be carried on by the Debating LeagueH which was organized last year and comprises the members of the three debating clubs. The religious spirit still continues intact at the institution. Prayer meetings cone ducted hy the students themselves are held Saturday evening. There is also a class conducted by the students. which meets every Sunday afternoon to study the Bible and such other topics as shall tend to arouse greater missionary zeal. The class on Sunday afternoons stands in direct connection with the Augustana Foreign Mission Society, organized in 1556. Since its organization this society has, for missionary purposes, collected no less than $l5.000.00. During the last nine years the institution has been under the leadership of Dr. Gustav Andreen. He came from Yale University in 1901, to be the successor of Dr. 0. Olsson. It is owing to his activity more than that of any other man that the Fittieth anniversary of our institution has been made a Jubilee year in actuality. In his strenuous and successful work for the Jubilee fund he has been aided by an able force of ec-wnrkers, but it is through his enthusiasm and his personality that the work has received the impetus, without which there wouId have been small hope of success Fifty years of constant progress have been added to the history of Augustanai Fifty years made successful. not through the efforts of any one man alone. but through the eu-eperatiun. the prayers, the sacrifices of an entire Synod. Fifty years of pIDgIESS have passed. but what of the future? With the blessing of God upnn us in the days to come. as it has been upcn us in the days that are gone. the future is assured. We conhdingly look forward, behulding at each stage of progress a GREATER AUGUSTANA. 16 ?Bmgrapbical REV. Li PV ESBJORN. Auguslana's First President. Ta Rev. L. P.

QB 112m $211M NCE more the hand on the great dial of time. indicates that another college year has passed and that the histury of another graduating class is to be told. This time it is the history of the Jubilee class, the class of I910. In September 1906. the organization of the Nineteen tens was effected. Since that memurahle date this class has played a very important part in the history of Augustana. Twenty-thrce sturdy, energetic men responded to the call when the class met for the Erst time in the college gym. They were men of purpose and high ideals. which is well shown by the fact that they immediately chose as their standard, truth and purity. symbolized by their class colors. blue anti white. Upun this standard they inscribed the words of the class motto Know the Opportunity. Thus launched under auspicous circumstances they were cast upon the sea of hnawledge with a journey of four long years before them. Little did they then know of the many difficulties which they Would have to encounter; little did they dream of the battles which would have to be fought. Not only did they have to master the many problems of the class room. but they atsu had to meet ard master the wily and ever vigilant Sophs. The Society of Wise Fools. proved a Eurmidabh': enemy superior in strength and numbers. They had suffered much humilitatiun during their Freshman year and their purpose now was to inflict a similar punishment upon their underuclass men They at once showed themselves obnoxious, but their advances were soon checked and they were taught to consider the uFreshies with respect and revarence That the Sophs also had high ideals is evident from the fact that they had the nerve to hang their class portrait in the College Pharmacy by the side of venerable graduates of Augustana. It had been the custom to hang the portraits of the various graduating ciasses in this Hail of Fame. but that the picture of an insignihcant Sophomore class should occupy the same position of honor as that of a venerable Gradu was more than a Freshman was willing to grant. The problem was quickly solved. for one night, no one knows just when or how, it was quietly remOVed. The Sophs vowed vengeance. The strife between the two clasess was now on in real earnest. Night after night the Sophs shadowed the Freshies in an effort to capture some one of them and compel him to reveal the hiding place of their property, but of no avail. The first face to face conflict between the contending forces occurred on the memorable night of the Freshman hanquet. Weeks before the event the Sophs were i on the watch. Night after night one could see the lonely Sophs listlessiy making their heat up and down the College campus always an the alert for any stray Freshiesr Now I and then signals cuuld he heard in the silent night as the restless Suphs spied some stranger approaching. The Freshmen, however, spent their nights drinking deep of the Pierian spring. The eve of the banquet arrived. At the door to the banquet hall the fnrces met. The struggle was on. When the smoke had cleared away two Freshies were missing. One was hurried across the river to Davenport. the other tossed into a carriage. The purpose at the Saphs was to drive with the latter to some parts unknown, but to the dismay and chagrin of the captors their plans were frustrated. It was the little woman whom the valiant Sophs had deprived of a partner at the banquet. who turned the tables. Like a brave Amazon she fought for the rescue of the captive. As the army of France was inspired by the heroine, Joan uf Arc, so was this Freshman in. spired hy the courage of this brave woman. With united efforts they vanquished their captors. and made their way back to the scene of the banquet. 48 Another memorable event in the history of the Freshmen was the stag camp enjoyed at Woodsworthk grove. twenty miles up the Mississippi. The wise and dignified Senior of tmiay recalls with pleasure the many happy incidents connected with that camp; the stories and stump speeches around the camp tires at night; the bass and trout which Ted and .:Olley caught and the delicious spring chickens which Beau and Jake bought till from the farmers. The second year as college men, the Nineteen-tens changed from their position of the defensive to the offensive. The Nineteen-elevens. were very aggressive at hrst but this did not last long. Their inability to cope with the Nineteen-tens they well learned on the occasion of their excursion to Orion. The Sophs gathered at the station to bid farewell to their under-classmen. The parting seem: was a touching one. The Sophs did not like to see all the Nineteen-clevens leave them so they kept one ol the Freshies 'till the others should return again. When the Freshies objected to one of their number staying behind. the Nineteen tens used a little force with persuasion and as a result some had their hair all mussecl up and a few neckties were pulled a triHle out of place, but beyond that nothing serious happened A week later the Nineteen-tens were reported tn be planning for a banquet. The Freshies immediately laid plans to check the aHair. The Sophs met in secret session and later departed from the College Campus leaving three of their number as bait, to the Nineteeneelevens. The Freshies made the most of their npport'unity and seized their prize; Arrangments haul been previously made by the Freshmen to ring the college helI once for every Staph caught. They accordingly rushed to the old Dorm. Once! Twice! Thrice! the old hell was tolled. The joy of the Freshies was unbound. Two of the captives, ttClaes and uWest were kept closely guarded in a Freshmanls room: a third captive was led away. Nut thinking their prisoner safe on the continent the Freshies removed Li B. to Campbell's Island; There like Napoleon on the Island of St. Helena, he was held at bay. The next clay disappointment reigned in the Freshman camp when they learned that no Sophomore banquet had been held and they had been fooled. The following week, however, the Sophs enjoyed their banquet without the knowledge of the Freshmen. The Nineteenatens have won battles. honor, and distinction, nut only in their con- tests with their undereand upperaclassmen, but also in literary lines. in forensic contests and in athletics. In each of the debating teams sent nut by Augustana they have had one or more representatives, and in all other lines of work they have taken an active part. During their Junior and Senior years, the Nineteen-tens. realizing that the time for their pranks had passed, we hnd them to have turned to the more serious work of their college career. The greatest achievement of the class of 1930 and the First of its kind ever attempted at Augustana is The Jubilee which the class has published. We wish, that as the years roll by. and as the members of this class enter upun their various duties of life. filling responsihte duties in church and state. that as they turn the pages of uThe Jubilee it may serve to bring hack to memory some of the happy events of college life, If so the wish of the historian is fulfilled. 49 $11953?in cease ea.--nm ,.m e?

SOME DUIINGS OF THE NINETEENVTENE, WtEbe QEie What hinheii BY REV. EDWARD FRY BARTHOLOMEW, PH. D., D. D. Blast he the tie that binds Our hearts in Christian iDVE; The fellowship of kindred minds 15 like to that above. We share each others woes, Our mutual burdens bear; And often for each other Hows The sympathizing tear. AUGUSTANA'S GRAND OLD MAN. tszmuR cuss GUARDIAN J In every community, in every social group, in every organization, in everv institution, of learning, wherever men and women live, in any kind of association there is always found a certain band that unites the indiviuals into an organic unity. What is it? What are its peculiarities? To what and does it serve? It can be felt. not seen: its quits are visible, but it cannot be deEned. It is similar to the tie which binds the members of a family together. so that each enters into the experiences of ail the rest. each shares the other's woes and jays, each bears the otheris burdens. But it is something more than the mere bioodahond; it is psyChic in its nature, uniting those of common spiritual interests in a fellowship of kindred minds.H It is often the case that the study of this bond leads to the disclosure of the inner- most life and the secret spring of energy from which flow the outward material activities of associated imiividuals. It is extremely interesting to study the life and work of a college or univeisity, for instance. from the standpoint of the hidden potency which gives character to an institutionifur institutions, like individuais, have a definite Charatane to trace its varied activities to their source, to discover the spiritual forces which are at work under the surface. and to folIew these through all their unfoldings in the ideals which shape its outward life. There is no better way to gain a thorough knowledge of a given social group than by studying the spirit whiCh dominates that group. The true history of an institution. like the Common law of England, is unwritteneit is not to be found in annais and chronicles, it is summarized in the esprit dz corps which is the procluct of many years and of a long line of antecedent'experience. The true history of a 52 school is not a record of men, of events. of achievements, of endowments; it is rather the am heritage of invisible spiritual values which have crystallized into definite forms out of the associated life of the men and women whose names are inscribed on the register of students and teachers. And to study a school from the viewpoint of greatest advantage is to study im animating spirit. or the tie that binds its members into an organic unity. In every college and university one is made aware of a certain characteristic spirit the moment he comes within the limits of its atmosphere. You read it in the faces of students and teachers, you hear it in their conversation, you see it in their games and recreations. you are reminded of it in their social conventions and daily intercourse. it touches you on every hand-a mystical something which makes the school a brotherhood of congenial spirits. The tie that binds is a factor of great power and iniiuenee in the life of a school. it is in fact the fountain which feeds its fife and the power which guides its activities. It ii in a school what the centripetal force is in the solar system, it binds the constituent members to a common center and holds them in their respective orbitsi Though they wander far and wide through the world, though they roam over land and sea, through they move in distant orbits and on divergent paths. this power of attraction holds them true to their eommon Center and in longer or shorter periods evermore brings them back again to Alma mater. even as the solar primary brings its secondaries. The spirit of amity and sympathy among the constituency of a school is a powerful factor in the work of education, and shauld by every lawful means be fostered and encouraged; It begets a sentiment of loyalty among the student body, binding them to their institution and causing them to cherish its history and traditions. We are made to feel this every time we sing Should old acquaintance he forgot and every time we hear the college yell. There is experienced in the hearts of the students a thrill similar to that which every loyal citizen of the Republic feels when he hears My Country 'tis of Thee. or The Star Spangled Banner. Thee: songs are mighty unihers and con- serves of loyalty. These national songs, and college songs as well, are thus powerful because they embody and express the spirit that breathes in the collective body. Their influence rests on the same principle as that contained in the utterance of the sage who said, uLet me write the songs of a nation. and I care not who makes the ans. The same may be said of our coilege songe-in matters of government. and unification of interests and fastering the sentiment of luyalty that are more deeply influential than codes of rules and laws, for they touch the hearts of the students. That Faculty or board of regents, which appreciates the value of this Spirit at community in the student body and knows how to strengthen the tie that binds is truly wise and happy in its functions. In our own Augustana the spirit of love and sympathy pervades the entire school family. The Augustana Community is a happy family where mutuai esteem and con hdence, mutual regard for another's welfare, mutual helpfulness are characteristics , which even the stranger who happens in our midst does not faii to observe. For thy 53 oththiIP-i years the tie that binds the members of this family has been gradually growing in strength and dehniteness. Of all the great things we shall commemorate during our Jubilee festivities there is nothing more worthy of observation and of laudation than the lmnd that unites us and the spirit that is the strength at our life and the secret of our success. A feeling of fraternity. not in name only but in reality. exists and spreads its influence over all. A delightful home-atmusphere surrounds the institution ancl makes it a pleasant place to live and work inian atmosphere of serenity and peace rests upon it like sunshine upon a land-scape. And when those who have sojourned here for a season go forth from these halls to try the realities of practical life they feel pulling at their heart strings a popular force which draw. them howewarcl as the lodestar draws the needle. Throughout the length and breadth of the land, wherever the sons and daughters of Augustana meet, they know each other by the mystic tie that binds them to their common home even as members of the secret lodge know each other. And the sign of this fraternity, as Gray expresses it, is the social smile, the sympathetic tear. This element in our school life is not an idle thing. not a vain sentiment, not an etlervescenee of youthful enthusiasm; it is a serious thing, a thing of permanent spiritual value. a thing of deep ethical import. It is in our school community what the religious spirit is in a congregation. It is aptly expressed by the injunction of the Apostle. itLet nothing he done through strife or vain glory: hut in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than themselves. Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. And. Bear ye one another's burdens? In vain would we seek for a school that comes nearer fulfilling these precepts of the Apostle and realiz- ing this biblical ideal of a perfect social community than does Augustana. This spirit works in her organic life and brings forth the beautiful fruits of friendship. brotherly kindness, and mutual helpfulness. The tie that binds us serves unto unification; It makes us one in heart and in purw pose, one in endeavor to promote the best interests of the school and the church which WE love. We are not divided. All one body we, One in hope, in doctrine, One in charity. We being many, are one hotly in Christ and every one members one of another. Where the spirit of disinterestedness governs the life and work of an organization and the members see eye to eye. there harmony prevails and the law of love works its blessed results. It is a matter for devout thanksgiving that our ranks have never been invaded by that ungodly ambition and that vain heartless selfzseeking which always bring discord and disaster in their train. We may also congratulate ourselves that in our little republic of letters there is no spirit of caste and that we are not rent by factions, as is so often the case in large schools. And as the years come and go, as generation succeeds generation, may the HGreater Augustana. which is to be. evermore cherish that spirit of unity which has been the strength of the Augustana that was, and now is, remembering that united we stand, divided we fall. 54 IL u H E R a M E N O nauhil $$$f! dtnIIege of liberal Em?

Freshman class they also called it. And the name itself doth tell you That it's history and annals Are but brief. yet the beginning Is Well worth to be considered. On the seventh of September, Nineteen Hundredzsix we gathered, IneXperienced and timid. In the halls of Augustana To begin the search for knowledge. Two years passed along but nothing Happened during these two mentioned In our history. The third year. Much diminished as to number, Was the class. but these remaining Thought it pruper to consider U- or not we should attempt to Organize the class. All favored This and signed the constitution Of the class of Nineteenathirteen. The hrst'act we slid as Freshmen Was to choose the class oEicials For the year, and then a motto. HVincit qui enilitur.H seemed Best to all and was adopted. And the colors. orange and black were Thuught to be the best becoming. Thus excitement and adventures Started, 'rouncl the school. The uFreshie.r.. Few in number 'gainst the Snphomorcs. But courageous, strong and daring. Wished to try if their opponents Also did in strength excell them. Therefere with a rush surprising To the Sophs and unexpected, Did the freshmen in a moment Carry OH three very frightened uW'ise Ones, down the College Campus. Where they. since they haei admitted That the Freshman was the better Class, were then released and treated As the best of friends and fellows. Now a series of encounters Followed one upon the other But in every one victorious Were the Freebies, but the Sophomores Barked at moon on some occasions, And on others spoke our praises In most glowing little speeches. After all the wars and battles With no booty save the laughter, We decided to have a banquet. Now the Scphs. in evil council. Flocked together and inquired 01: the winds. the birds, the planets, And the stars whither the Freshies Might proceed to hold their class spread. 50 the evening came. The Sophomores, Since they dared not. an the Campus. Try their luck, they. as mauraders, Marehed to the hotel to meet us. Yes. they met us. but Ihey also Met their uWaterlool The nFreshies Scattered them in all directions. But one Freshman, all too cawet To pursue the foe before him. Ran too far. Alas! they took him. Bound him with a rope and quickly Brought him o'er the Mississippi. On the ferry to Rock Island. Nothing could be done to rescue. Or assist the gallant hero. So we gathered in the parlors And enjoyed ourselves with music. Games and at a luscious table. Thus some things have been related 0E cur combats. 'gainst the Sophomores.

To breach 3 subject 50 m vleiicate is almost to walk in where angels fear to tread. Hurrying along gag a college walk, you may espy an add individual, as it were the president or janitor of the schoui. beholdeyour theologue. There is no mistaking his staid compartment. soiled linen tie, and pious draup of jaw. Of! he is lean, hungryelooking. 0ft he is a portly Figure so much that you would diagnose theolugy as a disease of the stomach. He puffs by, broad as a battleship, carrying all before him. Hair is infrequent on his pate owing to barren soil. The fires of youth are out, he is garbed in charcoal biank. His linage is doubtful. Sometimes Augustana, Bethany, Gustavus. Adolphus, or Uppsala have labored seven arduous years attempting to reform him. Sometimes he is evidently a born preacher. fresh from farm or backwoods. Ail go in the same melting- pot, to inhabit the same preacher's coat. A bluE appearance makes mat coat sit better than much study, Be he no ink-horn varlet. your theoiugue is nevertheless no ordinary hlockhead. He Haunts not his wisdom but goes moping through seminary halls. a sacred precinct redolent with civilization a quarter century old. He is a fossil, an epitome of coliege history, able to shake a duzen years off his back and tell what tricks the profs did when they were young. This love of the old he betrays in the cutivation of dead languages. He gets so much exercise sawing the air out in the congregations that he can dispense with college athletics. He is en adept thereto. at wielding the knife and fork. In the Wennerberg he is a distinct asset. his celestial countenance leading uplift to the music. In the play of gaiety at Augustana as in the modern drama there is always .1 preacher. A lull in the conversation announces him. The girls sober for they dread him as a sticky acquaintance. In spite at his unctiuus manners. society boycots him as a has-heen. He is greeted with yawns buried in handerchiefs. The only welcome thing about him is his amen. The greatest enemy of man is man. The seminarian may get one surprise in the summer, he is sure of many in the ciass-room when the prof catches him trying to tip-tue through his course, He is treated generously to Hebrew roots and Greek stems. but thanks to a welladeveloped stomach he survives such advanced dietics. In the con- gregation he is leader. at school he capitulates to the profs and is juslled about as a kid. Little wonder he reacts to such a proud animai when he gets out. Little wonder cur anchorite theologue carries a far-a-way look telling that his heart is elsewhere. Little wonder he is so emulaus of acqulring an ideal heipmee't that he attempts where stouter men than he would shrink and Wiser men despair. 73 thngihhi'tn .. pev- nah t- anh' ghnlsm ll?! aiding: nf 'Ethngp mibblt Quasi; OFFICERS A.

The educational value at sung was early appreciated 2:9 by those who were the founders of our institution; for it is now twenty-nine LWES years since the first oratorio society was organized at Augusta-na college. While on a visit to Europe. Dr. 0. Disson attended a musical festival in London. England, in l879. Here he received in the form of inspiration. the seeds that were germinated in the organization of the oratorio satietyV upon his return from Europe. The L2; W organization was etieeted in IBBI. This society was the first of its kind to be organized in Rock Island or Molina. Music was in those days a thing much mun: rare than in our own days. and it might, therefore, to us, seem a venturesome task to organize a chorus of over one hundred voices with the express purpose of singing the highest class of cantatas and oratorios. But if matters were difficult the leaders in this movement were so much the more enthusiastic in spirit and this is what made the oratorio work a success at our institution at the very start. The first chorus was made up of four contingentseone respectively from Rock Island. Mnline, Andaver, and Galesburg, all under the genezal direction of Prof. Osborn who was the directs:r of the chorus during the First three years The first series of concerts was given in Molina, Rock Island, Calva. Cateshurg, and Altona, in April iBBI, when Handelis nMessiah was rendemdi At each of these places the chorus was received with great enthusiasm. The same prugram was given in the Moline church. also the following year. two cnnsecutive nights and so great was the interest in the under taking that fully five hundred persons were turned away. Another memorable concert was that given by the society at the celebration of the four hundreth anniversary of Martin Luther's birth in November 1883 for which DCCasiDn a temporaiy frame buiide ing with a seating capacity of three thousand persons had been erected on Zion hilly Besides the college orchestia. an orchestra from Bethany college assisted the chorus on this occasion. This would seem Ito have been the highest point attained by the society and certain it is that a good deal of enthusiasm went along with the work in those earlier days. With much faithful wnrk, hnweven many successful concerts have been since given. It might even he asserted. that the must successful concerts, from the artist's point of view have been rendered in later years. Following are a few of the great oratorios rendered by the Society in recent years: Handebs Messiah, Wennerbergis HDavidls Psalms.n Haydn's Creation, Mendelssohn's xiEJijah, Steiner's Daughter of Jairus, Bennet's Woman of Samaria. Stolpefs HRefarmatim't Cantata,n Gade's Zion. Mercadante's iiThe Seven Last Words, Wennerbergk uChrirttmas Oratcyripfl Gaul's Holy City, Spohris Last Judgment. Backs Code Time is the Best. Gounod's Callie. Mendelssohn's Hymn of Praise. The different directors of the Oratorio chorus during the years of its existence have been in the order named as follows: Prof. J. E. Osborn. Prof. PA A. Edquist, 92 Prof. Gustav Stolpe, Prof. James Moody, Prof. Gn'ffath. Prof. A. D. Bodfors. Prof. F. E. Peterson, Prof. Christian Oelschlagel, Prof. Emil Larson. and Mrs. Edla Lund. Of these. Profs Griffeth and Peterson attainui the highest number of years as diTeCtOrS. serving eight and seven years respectivly. The present Oratorio chorus has a membership of one hundred seventy-Hve voices and is under She leadership of Mrs. Edla Lund who holds the distinciion not only of being the first dircctress of the chorus but also one of iLs most successful leaders. Under be? efficient leadership the chorus has made two public appearances annually. At the last Christmas Festival, the chorus scored one of ils greatest succeesess in their rendition of Bach's Goch Time Is Best. Lemare's Song of Songs, Guunod's By Babylon's Waves? and Griegirx HLandsighting-n The chorus was then, as upon all other occasions when the chorus appears. assisted by a corps nf high class suloists. The Chorus will take a must prominent part in the Jubilee celebration. At the grand concert it will render a cantata in four parts written by E. W. Olson of the class 01 '91. the music of which is written by Prof. Reynold Lagerslrom of St. Peler. Minn; also parts of Handel's HMessiah. In addition to the grand concert the chorus will take part in several of the different programs during the Jubilee week, rendering. Credo UVlesse SonnelleL by Gnunod. Landsighting, by Grieg.

Behold a large class assembled in the Swedish room; Ithe recitation is one of highest interest for the professor is in the very midst of a flight or oratory praising the work of Northland author; the silence on the part of the class is so intense that a pin might be heard to fall. Sudclenly, like the taper! of a gun on a still night. the organ. directly over- head booms faIth in the majestic strains of the uPilgrim'e Chorus from Tannhauser. Almost immediately the opening notes from some popular piano duet ascend from the harmony room below and at the same moment, as if by preconceived agreement. the voluminous tones of Aeh clu Lieber Augustine are heard in the room next door. where an over-enthusiastic German class imagines that it is learning the folk songs of the Father- land in a manner truly characteristic of the German university student. But this is not all, From another mum not far away are heard the plaintive tones of: a violin. while sounds of still a different kind are heard from the room above where the voice is treated through all the stages of noises pruductiun. n the Swedish room the spell is broken; the professor has lost his eloquence; the class has lost its interest; the recitation shes in con- fusion. This is true of the Swedish room. but recitatinns in other moms are similarly aEected. Such a thing is a daily happening in the school that has a School of Music under the same roof as rthe callege clepar'tment. The creators of all this music are to a great extent Dur co-eds, for they compose in a large majority the students of the clepartment: of Fine Arts. While it is true that these maidens are an ever present help in time of trouble when the young men are looking for a companion for some banquet or other festive occasion. it is also true what these same maidens are a very present trouble in time of help. However. we cannot but actmit that there is same advantage in having Ithese feminine students of the School of Music in our midst. They serve admirably to keep us posted on all the latest styles of hair dressing; whether the sleeves of a shirt waist should be worn tight or baloon fashion; how large a hat should he to be considered perfectly modish and whether the jacket of a suit should be cut tight Fitting, semi litted. or box. Thus may be seen a few. 3 very few, of the merits and faults of the School of Music. The writer hesitates Itu pass judgement upon them and leaves that task to you. O gentle reader. Perhaps if Augustana had a separate building. safely secluded in some distant wilderness where the aspirants to an harmonious education might amuse themselves to their heants' content, the question would be satisfactorily solved. That. too. clear reader. is a taslt with which you can hurtiert yourself. In the meantime. we must do as the poet has so sublimely said. grin and bear it eJULIAN. 97 thlll'iltv 50:0 qumgio .nSEwSH.

A musical festival in honor of Gunnar Wennerberg. who had but recently died. was to be given in December at the same year by the Sven Male chorus of Malina, and at their request, President Amircen urged that a chorus he organized among the students for the purpose of taking part in this festival. Of course the work was takEn up with enthusiasm for in the bent of everyone, in whose veins even a single drop of northern blood Hows. there is a great love for song. And why not? Has not the Muse favored our people with the very ehnicest at her work in the snngs of Wenner- berg and a hundred Other masters of song, and are we not descendants'of a people whose land in the high north has been so garbed by nature as to inspire even the stranger to clothe in song what is best in him? As is natural. the new organization began its career with great aims in view. but the remarkable thing is that our Wennerberg has more than realized these aims. It is well worth noting in :this connection that the uriginai resolution to sing nothing but worthy music has been strictly adhered to by the chorus. and the custumary catchy college glee song has not received the permanent place usually accorded it in the re- pertoire of a coliege male chorus. In I904. the chorus thought itself prepared to take an extended concert trip. visit- ing our people in their congregations. and singing to them the old and familiar yet always new and pleasing melodies of the North. Accordingly. a trip wast taken through the northern part of lilhaimethe beginning of which has now become an annual Wenner- berg tour, the last one at which has with great success just been eumpieted this spring throughout parts of Illinois, Minnesota and Wiscunsin. The work has always been suc- cessful. Bringing greetings from our Augustana. which all our people love, the boys at the uWennerberg have won laurels in many states, and the circle in which they are known and spoken of with picasure and interest is ever widening. The successive directors of the chorus have been. A. 5; Hamilton. C. I. Sedergren. Chas. Haliberg, E. C. Bioomquist. Emil Larson and Peter Johnson. The latter has been director since i903. and has won a warm place in the hearts of the boys by his unassuming personality and unquestioned abiiity to pruduce results. it is safe to say that the Wennerberg is one of the most potent factors we have of making mare strong the bonds whiCh bind tngether the sons and daughters 0f Augus- tana. Its purpose has always been to bring home to the hearts of our peupie. a thrill of the life at our school. and to further the name and welfare of that school as far as possible. The Vil'ennerbem:u admitting members. only on competitive trial. seeks to combine and train the ver best that Augustana has to offer in the way of voice and character; it seeks to represent in the best possible manner the loftiest ideals of Augustana in the homes of the many kind friends who welcome its members in the tau: season; it seeks to sustain in the hearts of our people a iove for the best Swedish and American songs; and First. last am! always. its most cherished aim is a GREATER AUGUSTANA. 99 Ebz Wennerherg abutug ROSTER PETER JOHNSON MARCUS SKARSTEDT MARTIN GUSTAFSON TAGE JORANSON OSCAR PURN JOSEPH LILJEDAHL OLOF LUNDGREN FIRST TENORS Eric Holmer W.

By the high standard of instruction fol- lowed by this department.Augustana hasnotonlyhecomEthe musicalcenter of the Tri-cities, but has gained a reputation unexcelled by that of any similar institution at its kind. and - well worthy of the school with which it is connected. The fact that this department is closely associated with the hther departments of Augustana college. its students are brought in contact with the large student body. a feature which is in itself an important factor in many respects. The students of music all live either at the school or in its close vicinity, thereby having the advantage of both attending and taking a personal part in the various musical programs which are given at the college every week. They are also given the opportunity of attending the different series of recitals given at stated intervals throughout the school year. In addition to these recitals they are favored with high class musical programs rendered by the most famous artists of the day. both under the pa:- sonal direction of the School of Music and under the Lyceum management. The poularily of the School of Music is well shown by the attendance during the past year. In the piano department. 33 pupils have been enrolled; organ. 15 pupils; harmony. 22 pupils; voice, tprivate world 37 pupils; class work, 31 pupils; violin, l8 pupils; making a total of 206 pupils. In addition to these classes, instruction is also given in sight-singing. ear-training. dictation, the art of conduction, theory, and his- tory of music Augustana School of Music also has a flourishing Childrenis department, where music is taught to children not only of the usual school age. but the kindergarten age as well. SCHOOL OF ART In September 1897. an art school was established by the artist, Olaf Grafstrom. Professor Grafstrom is known not only as the head of the Art School at Augustanae but is noted throughout our entire Synod for his wonderful abilities as an artist, having won a widespread reputation because of the many beautiful altar paintings which he has pro- duced for our many churches. The Art School includes the different branches of art. drawings in the different mediums, paintings in oil from still life. and life. The School includes not only students 104 who have choeen as their vacation to become artists, but also many students that take art together with other studies pursued in other departments of Augustana. Between thirty and forty students has becn the average enrollment during recent years. Several students of the Augustana School of Art have completed their studies in advanced schools of Art in Art in America and Europe. and we are proud to find that not so few among these have made themselves known and today possess a name among the prominent artists. SCHOOL OF ORATORY AND EXPRESSION Closely afEtliated with the Schools of Music and Art at Augustana is the School of Oratnry and Expression. The head of this Schuul is Miss Iva C. Pearce. a graduate of the Columbia College of Expression, and it is mainly the thorough quality of her work that has given this School its high standard of excellency. In addition to a thorough course in public speaking, extensive courses of instruction are given in the art of ex- pression. voice culture, analytical study and vocal interpretation of selections from the best American and English WIilets. Sixty-eight pupils have been enrolled in this School during the past year. thirty-eight taking Class work and thirty private instruction. MUSICAL.

All ofhcers of the uLyceumu and the edintors of the college paper are necessarily members of one of the above named literary societies. The Phrenokosmian Society haci its birth with the founding of the institution in 1360 and thus this year, together with Augustana College. celebrates its Eftieth anniver- sary; The Adelphic is the younger of the two college societies having been mganized in 1883. Both societies hold meetings on Friday evening 0F each week. The meetings of the Phrenohosmian society are conducted in the English and Swedish languages alter- nately. while the meetings of the Atielphic society are conducted exclusively in the English language. Weekly programs are rendered consisting of essays. orations. remi- ings. short talks. and music. Both societies also publish weekly papers which are read before the respective organization; THE PHRENOKOSMIANA is the ufhcial organ of the Phrenos, and the CENSOR holds the same rank among the Adelphianst Any student 0f Augustana is eligible to membership in either society. The Concordia Society belongs exciusively to the students of the Theological 5cm- inary. This organization came into existence in 1898. Its aim is the promotion of Evangelical Lutheran Theotogical culture and the strengthening of Evangelical Lutheran faith, The Concordia meets every Friday afternoon when interesting programs consist- ing of discussions, short talks and lectures by faculty members or other invited speakers, are held.

BOARDS OF DIRECTORS, AUGUSTANA FOREIGN MISSION SOCIETY ll? mltgtuug gctihttim at guguetana True Christianity is life and activity. It never grows old nor weary. Ever busy in well-doing. it is its own great eulogy. and needs no other so long as it is true and faithful to its author. True to its nature and principles. therefore. its virtues and deeds are not placarded nor sounded forth by the trumpet. This is :the reason why less is heard of our religious than of our social and athletic activities. At the eve of the Eftieth anniversary. Some pious soul of the former generation might ask if our Augustana is as rich in Christian faith, love and hope as was that of his time. We are perhaps not competent to judge, but we believe and sincerely hope that it is That time and change are busy ever also in religious matters need not surprise anyone as it is iar from always being a cause for regret. The modes and methods of our religious activities may have changed somewhatewe have develnped them a little in a generation ur twnibut the activities themselves are the same. To be convinced let us review some of them. First let us visit the chapel exercises. since this is the one religious activity where the entire school-Eamily takes part. We'll take a seat in the balcony so as to observe every thing. The exercises are conducted in the English language. This is one of the necessary changes that have taken place. Now the singing begins 0, how powerful and beautiful are the choral: as sung by the students. The stone walls reverberate and re-echo. And when all unite in the Lordis Prayer. the Biblical passage is called to mind. And the sound thereof was like unto the rushing of mighty waters.H If we were to visit the Saturday night prayer meetings, conducted by the students themselves, we would again hear the same singing. but also the fervent. personal prayer oflemd up to God, for school. church and home, The Sunday afternoon Mission-elass next claims our attention. It is conducted under the. supervision of the Augustana Foreign Mission Society; studies the subject of foreign missions, and is therefore called The Mission Study Class. The Lwtherman Chorus and :1 Ladies; Quartette sing alternatefy at these meetings. Lectures, papers and discussions on mission topics are held successively The average attendance is about seventy. Some of the most successful of our younger clergy were at one time members of this ciass. The most prominent of all religious activitieS, is the Augustana Foreign Mission Society. It has over Five hundred members and annually contributes about $1,500.00 to our hclds in India. Persia. and Porto Rico. The funds are raised by membership-fees and by means of representatives annually sent to the neighboring CUngIegations to cunduet misslcn-SeIVlCES in the absence of the pastor. Three of four times every year, Mission services are conducted under its auspices in the College chapel. Some one outside of the schoul circle is then called upon to deliver the mission sermon or address. May God so bless these activities and faint endeavors so that at the centennial in I960. they may appear as mere Iudiments and small beginnings of what shall then be presented. -C. E.

LATIN CLUB Q THE LATIN CLUB Although an extensive course in the study of Latin language and literature is given in the Academic and Collegiate departments of Augustanat sufficient time is nut anrded for the reading of very many works of Latin writers. For that reason a Latin Club has been organized for the beneht of those whu desire a more advanced study of the writings of Latin authors, Only those who have studied Latin for at least three years can become members of the organization. THE SCIENCE CLUB The Science Club was organizer! May 7. I909, for the purpose of promoting the study of the natural sciences at the school, and of afforriing an opportunity for individual and special study of some branch of scientihc research. The club meets every Friday evening, when a program, consisting of a lecturE. or essaysl or of some Other form of dissertation on some subjECt 0f seience, is rendered, or a mum: of study is pursued. Any student, pursuing studies at the school and evincing an interest in the Study of the sciences, is eligible to membelship in the club. 126 I27 O. m: 0:33. 2202. Eamon. 1. 5?.

The Debating League has now taken complete charge of all debating at Augustana and the ditterent representatives chosen to debate with representatives of other colleges are men selected from the three debating clubs belonging to the League.

It means that Augustana is to have a new library. a library unsurpassed by any in the state of Illinois. The longrfelt need. the most pressing de- hciency, has been Elled through the munifleence of friends of our institution. Eloquent as the structure itself is, mere eloquent still is the silent spirit of good-will and benevolence that shines through it. It is the spirit that loves to do good. not for praise. but tor the sake of doing good. Would that many others would do likewise! January 28, I909, will always be remembeIed as one of Ihe happiest days in the his- tory of Augustana. On that day the gladsome news was imparted to Dre Andreen by the F. A. C. Denkmann heirs oftheirdecisiontoerectalibrary for Augustana at a cost of mole than $100,000., as a memorial to their departed parents. The joyful tidings were in turn told by President Andreen to the curious and speculating throng of students who tilled the chapel the same afternoon in response to the unusual and special summons. At hrst we could scarcely comprehend the significance of the words that felt tram the lips cf uur president, but when the truth Finally iiawned what a shout arose! For several minutes :the chapel echoed and reveehoecl, Such a fortune had never come to our Alma Mater before, and none could bear with it more promises of rich import fur the futuIe. No one who wiimma that chapel scene. or the subsequent events of the day, will ever forget them. The evening serenade. perhaps. was the best of all. Despite a blind- ing rainstorm which transformed the streets of the city into rushing rivulets, and miniature lakes. two hundred or more students formed a torchlight party anti proceeded to the homes of the respective donors to give voice to their pent-up enthusiasm and their appreciation of the generous gift. Even the rain did not seem to dampen the ardor 0f the serenaders, so enthusiastic were they. It was late and still raining when the party broke up far the humeward joumey, but no one regretted having taken part in that spontaneous outburst of enthusiasm. The names of the generous donors are as Follows: F. C. Denkmann at Rock Island. E. P. Denkmann of' Rock Island. M15. Wm. H. Marshall of Rock Island. Miss Sue Denkmann of Rank Islandi Mrs. Thomas B. Davis of Rock Island. Mrs. Edward S. Wentworth at New York. Mrs. John J. Reimers of Fort Worth. Texas. No cnnditiuns had been attached to the gift by the donors. and there was little delay. therefore, before the plans for the new library began to assume concrete form. The finest 1i. braries in the middle Westwerevisitedandinspected by representatives ot the college and of the Denkmann family. and the best features of all these were embodied in the plans for Augustana's library. The Renaissance style of architecture was adopted and Carthage l39 pauhi lw menced early last fa11.

To the Rev. Dr. C. O. Granere falls the honor of chief librarian in the new Denkmann Memorial Li- brary. Dr. Granere is a man well qualihed for his pusitinn, having served as librarian of the Augustana Library since 1898. Dr. Granere graduated from the Gymnasium at Staekhulm, Sweden in 1370. The same year he en- rolleti as a studemt in Augustana College anti Theo- Iogical Seminary then located at Paxton, Illinois. He graduated in May 1871. He was ordained as a pastor of the Evangelical Lutheran church in Galesburg in 1872. Immediately upon his graduation he had been called as assistant professor at Augustana. but in June 1373 he was ca11ed as regular instructor in Latin and Swedish. The position as instructor in Latin language and literature he held until 1898. He also served as assistant instructor in Church History and Symbolic: from 1872-1576. Dr. Granere was elected vice-president of Augustana 1533. which position he held until 1836. Marcus Skarstedt. a graduate of the class of 1910 from the College of Liberal Arts. has received the we merited appointment as Assistant Librarian in the Denhmann Memorial Library. Mr. Sharatedt will enter upon his e1uu'es immediately upon the com- pletion of his course in Library Science which he. during the past semester, has been pursuing mt the University of Illinois. Mr. Skarstedt holds the distinction of having won hrst honors in scholarship in one of the largest classes ever graduated from Auguslana. I40 REV C. u. GRANERE. PH D. Miss Sue Denkmann, Mrs. E.

THE DONORS OF 1315 DENKMANN MEMORIAL LIBRARY T0 AUGUSTANA I41 '- - - -+- - $54.19.. 4120222 2215;.an NE. i42 Eh: Elubilte anbotnmmt quntl At the present day, we hear a great deal about the necessity ut endowing institutions of learning. The efforts at all modern educators have been directed towards this end. Almost every college and university in our country today has an endowment fund. Many of these funds consist of several millions of dollars. Much is also done in the way of equiping the various collages and universities with all the modern conveniences in order that they might offer to students the best and greatest advantages. During recent years the demand upon all institutionS. and not the least educaticmal institutions have been great. The problem of meeting these increased demands has cun- tronted all leading educaters. The problem has been solved. to some extent at leash by the establishment of endowment funds large enough to insure the Enancial success of the different colleges and univarsities. Under such conditions the necessity of placing Augustana on a Firm Enancial basis can readily be appreciated. Augustana has had tn meat the demands of the times as well as the other colleges of its kind. The same problems have confronted those who are the support and mainstay of our college; The solution of the problem has been sought along the same lines as Ithose followed by other eclucatms. of our dayethe establishment of an endowment fund. At the annual meeting of the Augustana Synod held in Paxton. Illinois. in l903, it was decided to endow the Augustana Theological Seminary. Nothing definite was dune thalt year as many were of the opinion that the entire institution. and not a part of it only, should he endowed. At last in l907. a decision was reached to raise an env clowment fund at $250,000. tar Augustana College anct Theological Seminary. this sum to he gathered among the friends and supporters at Augustana by June, 1910; hence the name The Jubilee Endowment Fundf' The value at such a fund for Augustana can hardly be over-estirnatecl. It means that our College is placed on an equal footing with ether institutions of its kind: it means that we can cope with nther schools in retaining our own young people for our own school; it means strength to our school in the eyes at the public and it will he a force that will malts for the further development at Augustana along those lines that shall bring it to the front. But the Jubilee Funct has a significance perhaps more remote though none the less great. It shows that our people are not yet willing to surrender the Faith of the force fathers. nor the personal ownership of the altar on which the ancestral tire burns, nut even though this would free them from the responsibility connected with ownership. It further indicates that the Swedish peuple in this country are conscious of their oppore tunitiest By establishing Firmly a christian institution of learning they seemed intent to do their share in the uphuilding of the American natiun by aiding true christian culture in this new world. To Dr. Gustav Andreen belongs the honor of having taken the initiative in the great work of endowing Augustana. Several years before he became connected with Auguy tana as its president. while yet a teacher at Yale University, he had foreseen the great I43 Memo ep? 9 problem which lay beiore us as a people, and accordingly conceived plans for the solu- h'nn of the problem. The result of these plans is the great Endowment Fund which he has now brought to such a successful close. To his mind. Augustana was the cemter of all that which hound us together as a Swedish Lutheran people. Instead of being divided. each intent upon his individual interests. it was our solemn duty as a people to rally around our common interest; touniteourefiortsinpreservingthe great heritage to which we had succeeded; to work as a people for the interest of our common cause; the pre- servation of that altar upon which still burned the Ere brought by our ancestors from across the waters. Upon such principles he began his work. Receiving a leave of absence from Yale. he went to Sweden for the purpose of there pursuing studies at the Universities of Uppsala and Lund. While there. he laid his plans before the prominent and inhuential men in that country. The idea seemed to meet with favor among our penple in Sweden. and althaugh the wotk went slowly at first, it was not long hefnre plans had been laid which resulted in the creation of a fund for the cndawing of 3 prev fessorship at Augustana. Dr. Andreen returned to America, but in the latlEI parlt of I903, returned again to Sweden in the interest at the Fund. From December 1903 to April 1904. he traveled and lectured throughout Swelien and with the able assistance of inHuentiaI men there. prominent amcng these, Bishop von Scheele, a fund of I00,0UO crowns was raised. To this fund the King OECaI II, contributed 5,000 crowns. and Consul Ekman contributed 50.000 crowns. The rest was raised by flee will contribur tions. This fund given by the people of Sweden was the real incentive to the large Jubilee Enciowment Fund. After the Synod decided to raise the large sum of $250. 000. for Augustana. Dr. Andreenl then the president of the institutinn became the Inad- ing body in the movement. Great enthusiasm for the werk was manifesteci on all sidest The Iowa Conference immediately promised $40,000, the Illinnis Conference, $140, 000., the Minnesota Conference. $50.0007. the New York Conference, $20,000., the Nebraska Conference, $l0,000.. the Kansas Conference, $7,000., m the California Conference. $1,000. For the past three years, Dr. Andreen has been engaged in the personal work of taking up subscriptions for these sums in the Iowa, Illinois and New Yuri: Conferences. Prof, Andrew Kempe and Rev. Theo. Ekhiad have also been actively engaged in sulieiting fur the Fund for the past two years. Besides several of the teachers and students of Augustana have been out in the Field at different periods. not to mention a number of ministers and others who have assisted in the great work. Sulititing for the Juhilee Endowment Fund has been a stupendous task. Enough cannot be said at the sacrihces of those who have had the work in charge. Sacrifices have also been made upon the parls cf many who have so 110ny contributed to this fund. To such persons. the institution will always OWe a debt of gratitude. Besides the collec- tion of a large sum of money, the work has also been the source at many good and lasting results,-resu1ts which will last forever. It has brought many into closer relation with our institution; it has infused enthusiasm in the place of pessimism in many; it has re- awakened the ancient heroic spirit and made our people realize the personal ownership of a great heritage. through the protection of which :the Swedisthmerican shall do honor to the memory of his Worthy ancestors. 144 at! 311E IBIU llllp I t t t guguytana QBhESmJEr PUBLISHED MONTHLY BY THE AUGUSTANA COLLEGE LYCEUM Rock Island.

Its sphere is Augustana ; its mission is i'Observer. Its aim is to represent all the forces which are at work in our midst. in which the student body are directly interested, or which have a direct influence upon the students. Ivts duty is to observe the interests of our institution, to observe the process the school is making, to observe the forces which are at work to make Itha't progIess possible, to observe the part the student body is taking in that progress. It is the expression of the literary life and talent of our studaqts. It is the creator and Ithe preserver of the true college spirit. Its held is limited not to the present student body. but it seeks to interest the large body of Augustana alumni and to strangthen Ithe fraternal ties which bind them to their Alma Mater. Its ideal is first and foremost a GREATER AUGUSTANA. I46 Gusuv canwzm, :oLchz cmL LGEIMEK ssmmmv Mun UNEEDIST. 50cm. EVENIS ANTDN ainzums, Iusmzss MANAGER E. E.

In reality such a thing does not exist. There was a time when Augustana ranked high with other institutions of' its kind even with respect to athletics, but that was a long time ago. In the early sixties when Augustana first came into existence. the young men who made up its student body knew little or nothing of the subject of athletics, But even they, after a hard day's work and study in the class room. had to seek physical exercise and recreation, This they tiid by strenuous application to the saw-huck or by Ending work in the fields or otherwise assisting the farmers living in the near vicinity, But con- ditions haVc changed somewhat since those days. As neither one of these mentioned modes of exercise any longer exist at Augustana. various means for the upbuilding of the body have had to be devised. After different attempts to supply the want. we find at last the installation of gymnastics. The interest in gymnastics grew to such an extent that We End conditions were such as warranted the following statement which we copy From the college catalogue. uThe institution possesses a spacious and well equipped gyma nasium, in which drill in gymnastics according to the Ling system is given six hours a week to students of all departments. But the extent in which Mr. Ling's prescription was used was not limited to the work under an appointed trainer. We had that there were organizations of such prominence as the Ling and Milo Gymnastic Clubs and several others of less fame. Latter bicycle clubs sprang into prominence. then we had tennis. and basketball, and before we knew it Augustana students were playing baseball and even football. Interest in athletics continued to increase and in a short time. Augustana not only enjoyed athletic relations with many of the best schools in this section of the country, but was also able to hold its own against any of them. But ail this happened a long time ago. When our thoughts turn to the events of 1906. and to the synodical meeting of the previous year. when a decision was reached by those in authority to abolish all inter-eal- legiate contests in athletics at Augustana. we lose all heart tn pursue our subject further. All too forcibly we realize that athletics are nu more. We have the shadow still, but the reality is gone. Augustana's present position. in regard to athletics. is sumewhat ithat 0f the little boy. who upon asking his mother if she would not let him go out and play, was told: Yes. Willie, you may go out and play. but remember. you must not play with lhe other boys. Willie could play by himself only; But what pleasure or beneiit was derived in running a race with himself? There is no longer any question in the college world concerning the desirability and value of athletics as a part of education. There is no reason why athletics should not be as secure in their position as the laboratory method in teaching science. It is true that the laboratory method has been in sun many cases carried to a ridiculous extreme that a few are willing t0 advise against the methud itself rather than oppose its abuses. But this plan of correcting the evils in a guest is too radical For right thinking people. It is true that Inter-coIlegiate athletics are uuilty of many evils. but that is no reasan why the entire system should be condemned. We cannot escape evils by avoiding them. Augustana stands to-day in the front rank of its sister colleges as an institution at learning. Few schuuls can beast such an efficient corps of instructors. Augustana does everything in its power for the moral and mental training of its student; But this is not enough. True education does not exist in mere book learning. A college education does not consist metely in the training of the mind and the heart. The body must also be properly ttaineti. The physical training is too important a factor to be last sight of. A sound l63 cauhi BU EW' hi l': L $h Sub IBIU it , mind cannot live in an unsound body; if the body is weak, the mind and heart will also suffer; Although the abolishing of all intercollegiate conlests in athletics have disposed of all. evils of athletics, yet it can truly be said that other evils have arisen which both in themselves. and in the more evil results which naturally Follow. are worse than those ba- longing to athletics. The questlon ishhas Augustana lost or gained by its experiment. We firmly believe the former. It is our honest conviction that the reinstatement of Inter- collegiate athletics. a1. Augustana, would be for the best interest of the institution. We have reasons to believe that the day is not far distant when Augustana will again enjay relations with other institutions. It will mean another step in the direction Inward: which we are strivinghlhe realization of our dream of a GREATER AUGUSTANA. Following are some of the records eslablished by Augustana clur'mg the days of Inter-collegiate contest. I902 BASKETBALL FOOTBALL Augustana vs. U. of Iowa ...... ' .l4-l7 A . C .
