HANKS to whom thanks is due and who more than you, dear professors, deserve our heartfelt thanks? Four years of what to us was future when we arrived at Augustana have revealeti to us her sources of true enjnyment. We have explored her. inner glories and have to our jov found pleasures which no one can appreciate until taught by that faithful teacher, experience. Whatever misconceptions of a college career we might have Imcl. whatever false glnmor there might have been, these have been swept away. Now :15 we are about to turn away we would pause and luck back over these years to search what has made bur stay here so pleasant and profitable. True there are many things which have aided. We could enumerate scores of pleasant happy times but what we want is that which will endure when all other things are only faintly seen in the dim past or have passed into the realm at the forgotten. In everything. it makes no tliFierencc to what sphere it belongs, then: is a central point around which all others cluster. We may look in the humhlest thing or the grandest and this is true. The arch has its keystone which shattered. causes the whole to fall, the grandest pucm has its central theme which destroyed. destroys the whole. Augustana has her professors whose memory blotted from :mr mind and whose inHu- ence destrayed in us Would he the undoing of our college days. This is the fact which has been sluwhr and steadily impressed upon us throughout these years. We well remember the first day we entered the class-toom, strangers to the professor. Day by day that strangeness passed away and we became friends. And more and more we began to look up to him with the inward feeling that we might be men like him. Who is there who has not looked upon a man of strength and longed to be such a man? As we sat time after time listening to his instruction the subject under disctmion 'tuok on new interest. Was it because of the text we 1.1st or of the nature nf the Subject? These, but more, it was the spirit of the man who taught it that inspired us. It was the spirit hack of the thought that quickencd us. Mure deeply impressed upon our hearts and longer to be remembered arc the things we learned in the classroom than those we found in our texts. Firm hxczl in our minds and deep rooted in nLII beings are the personal characteristics of each pro- fessor which made it worth while to know him, respect him and love him. This shall be our long remembered joy, little words, little phrases, life giving thoughts, shall, times without number, recall to us our professors and crown our life with joy. Then, thanks to ydu, whom we honor and revere for the beauties of life you have given by your awn example, your patience and your love. And as we have been influenced may we so live that your work shall not have been in vain hut bear fruit an hundred fold. MAIN BUILIJING-SIIJE VI Ew. GYMNASIUM. 31 ENE DORMITORY. LADIES. HALL. ERICSON IIALLiLADORATORY. initten for the Rorl-rfy-I by DR. C. XV. Foss. E have no records of the earliest schools or of the first students. When history dawns on our race, Schools with teachers and students were already in existence. The earliest extant libraries contain textibooks un various subjects including scientific treatises. grammars, and lexicuns. The first people in develop :1 written language and literature were perhaps the Sumerians. the earliest inhabitants of the Euphrates valley. This literature was almost wholly of :1 religious nature. Their history carries us back tn the fourth or lifth millennium before Christ. An invasion of the Semites followed. The new pcopic adopted the civilization of the old inhabitants and also their system 0f writing, but they Ietained their own language. In the course of centuries the Sumerian became a dead language, but as it contained a rich religious literature of formulas hymns, and prayers, it was studied by the students of that day as Latin and Greek are today Grammars, lexicons. :md interlinenr translations uf texts used by students in those early ages are found in the ancient Assyrian 21nd Babylonian libraries. and may b: used by the students of the same nld languages today. The landing motive of the Babylonian student for study. aside from his love at knowledge, was therefore .1 religious one. His curriculum, it 1: tlllct included. besides the strictly religious subjects, also natural history, mathematics astronomy, and law but the whuIe was given a decidedly religious cast. His instructors were priests. and his studies were pursued in the interest of religion and under its sanction. Along the banks of the Nile conditions were similar. There, mu, etlu-cntion was of a sacerdntal kind. The instruction, however, was of :1 practical sort especmily along the lines at astronomy. mathematics, and mechanics. This may be inferred from the great irrigation and engineering works found in the valley and from the-knowlcrlge and skill that made possible such masterpieces of architecture as the pyramids and the temples and palaces of Karnnk and Luxur. TEXt-buoks on various subjects have. come down to us. and large numbers of exercise books with the master's corrections in the margins have also been found. The most celehrmed seat of learning in ancient Egypt mm at Heliopnlis, :1 few miles north of the modern city of Cairo. For ages the priests of Helinpolis were renowned for their learning. and to them resorted students from variuus lands. Hither came Thales from Miletus, Pluto from Athens, and many others. Here Moses was received as a student and became learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians. The Schools of the Prophet; amtmg the Hebrews were almost wholly of :1 religious nature. The later Schools of the Rabbis at Jerusalem, Alexandria, and Babylon were religious and philosophical in their aims and methods. The must celebrated pupil, or student, of this class of schools was beyond all question Saul of Tursus. The Greeks had less of the religious and more of the intellectual element in their makc-up, and, hence. their schools of higher learning were of a more secular character. Amnng the great Greek teachers who gave lectures and gathered students about them Pythagoras is perhaps the earliest. His course of instructiml embraced principally speculative philosophy. astronomy, and mathematics. His strong personality deeply impressed his age, and imagination has veiled his nnemorj.V in a shroud of mystery. Legend avers that during their first years students were not allowed to look upon their master, but listened to his lectures from behind a screen He was held in the highest reverence by his pupils, and an 11m: dixit clinched all their arguments. Socrates was the first Greek to lay stress on the mural element in education. He established no school and had no Fixed place for his instruction. He met his pupils in the streets and market places wherever chance brought them together. His greatest pupil was Plum, who established the Academic School, so named tram the Academy, a public park to the north of Athens, where he gave his lecturest HThe Mind of the School, as Plato called him, was Aristotle, perhaps the greatest thinker the world has ever produced. He established the Peripatetic Schoal, and gave lectures in the Lyceum at the foot of Mt. Lycabettus east of Athens. His course of instruction embraced all extant knowledge, and he gave a systematic form to the VETIUUS SClEnCesy The Roman schools were of a decidedly practical character. Their main obicct was to train young men to law and oratory, and to produce jurists and statesmen. Theeonqucst-of the East, the spread of Judaism along the Mediterranean shores. and espeemlly the Introduction of Christianity made religion once more the dominant element in the schools of higher learning. The fall of the Roman Empire in the West under the Teutonic peoples made the Church the lending factor in civili'Lation for a thousand years. The purely intellectual element in education disappeared and the schools became almost wholly religious. Such were the monastic nml cathedral schools and the universities of the Middle Agcsi The most distinguished faculty in all the leading universities, as Paris, Oxford, and Cologne, was the theological. Jurisprudence claimed attention principally from the importance of studying the canon law. The study of Roman law was especially emphasized at Bologna. Through the influence of thc Saracen schools, especially of the one at Cordnvn, the natural sciences and medicine began to claim attention. Thus arose the University of Naples with its medical department at Salerno. With the Renaissance the intellectual element was again introduced into the curriculum of the European Schools. The classics were given the chief place and religion was crowded into the background. The Reformation brought the Bible to the front, and religion again held its honored place in thc Eurnpean universities. -The great inventions and discoveries of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries have introduced new elements into the curricula of our schools of higher learning, and increased the number of the professions. Not only theology, law, medicine, philosophy and art. but also Chamistry, physics, mechanics, engineering, economics, sociology, eta, now claims a large share of our postgraduate students. Thus it would seem that throughout the greater part of the historic ages religion has been the students chief motive for a higher education, and even today the divinity ' student holds a prominent place among his fellows. This in the long run must necessarily be the case as long as man has within him an undying soul with immortal longings and aspirations. Some students. it is trueV pursue their work for the mere love of knowledge and have no other object or aim in view. But this is after all not the highest or noblest purpose of study. VVhatEVcr the student's special aim or purpose may be, whatever profession he may try to Fit himself for, there is one purpose that all may have in common, the noblest and best purpose of all, to fit themselves to serve their fellowmen. Never before in the history of the world has the social consciousness made itself felt in all walks of life as today. This is a truly inspiring sign. It indicates the tri- umph of Christianity, the triumph of the sucial doctrines of the Great Teacher, who K'came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many. Hi5 measure of greatness is service. In his estimate the greatest of all is the servant of all. No one is a true disciple 0f the Master who does not recognize the obligation of service. In the application of this great principleethe Golden Rule- lies the hope of the world, and the students of today, properly trained in mind and heart and ready to wurk not for self but for others, will be the lenders and main factors in the solution of the great problems that confront the world today.

Hli Phrenoknsmian Society, the older 0f the two great literary societies of Augustzmu Cullege. was organized September 5, 1860 at Chicago, the same yczlr 215 the tnunding of the institution. Little did the eight students who signed :13 charter members realize that they were to form the nucleus of 21 great and influential nrgtmizatinn, which has developed and ad vanced side by side with the in tltutlnn itself until it new numbers about 150 members. From a small circle of indiuduals who discussed matters of commnn interest it has grown into a literary organization of jnestimable value to the schoul. The object of this society is to promote :1 Christian life, literary improvement and intellectual development in general among its members. Regular meetings are held every Friday evening when programs are rendered consisting of vocal and instrumental selections, readings, declamatiuns, addresses and papers. The meetings are conducted alternately in the English and Swedish language. The society, true to its abject. recognizes the Swedish not only because it is the language of our forefathers but also because of the factthat some of the world's best literature hzts been produced in that language Basides developing its members along literary lines in the popular language of the nation, the Phrenn has set :15 its high and noble aim the preservatiun 0f the language of a people of the Nnrth, sturdy and honest in character, intellectual in development, high in ideals, strong in physique and rich in the memories 02' :1 glorious history of the past. A society with such a two-fold purpose and with such loyalty of members as it has and now enjoys is bound to continue the work it has so brilliantly engaged in for the past flfty-four years. The Phrenokosmian Society can feel proud of its past history. Many of the most influential men and women in our synod and among our people have been affili- ated with the Phrenu. It may often seem to the student who plods hi5 weary way during college days that literary societies are of little or no practical value. Results may not always be visible, but nevertheless 'lE is the slow and silent development which counts most in literary activities. Undoubtedly n0 former student ever regretted being a member of the Fhreno. He will not hesitate to admit that he has derived at least some benefit thereof, either literary or socially. Alumni and students will always remember the Phreno Society as one of the chief factors of their college life. Side by side with the younger sister society it has upheld and promoted activities nutsidc 0f the classroom. Keen rivalry and competition exists between the two organiz- ations. yet at the same time there is 110 feeling at antagonism but rather :i.spirlt of harmony and common interest. Nu trust active and loyal Fhrenokusmian will ever underestimate or diminish the work of the rival society. The growth and development of an organization depends much upon the attitude and spirit of its members. The Phrene :mcl Adelphie, both have been strengthened llj' :1 spirit of harmony, cu-upera- tion and mutual interesteull'for the betterment and further realization of a truly Greater Augustana.

One thing is made clearly nnticeuble in the connection with this progress. and that is, that thch is a tendency in the broadening of our institution to attract other than strictly Swet tsh-Americztn students into our midst. This tendency is increasing and will continue to increase in proportion as Augustnna becomes more and more wider recognized as Zln institution of great edu- cational facilities, In providing for such condition of affairs there comes a demand for a literary society which uses exclusively the English language. The Adelphic society meets this demand. Organized September 15, 1883, it has progressed by leaps and bnunds, until today it has EL membership of about one hundred and fifty active members. Regular meetings occur on Friday evenings when programs of an instructive nature are rendered. Thesc programs are strictly in harmony with the purpose of the society expressed in the preamble to the constitution as follows: tEA society for mutual im- provement in general knowledge and Christian culture. To the fact that there has been mutual improvement in general knowledge any true Adelphian will testify, and as to improvement in Christian culture we hope the time may never come when it can be said that this great essential to the maintenance of a sound literary society has been lost sight of. At every meeting the general knowledge of each and every member is increased both by the renditions of readings and by papers and addresses dealing with tupics of general interest. All the programs are, moreover, generously interspersed with musical numbers both vocal and instrumental. But not alone from the standpoint of the audience receiving benefit and improve- ment as to general knowledge are our literary programs proving themselves of inestim- able value, but also in giving to the participants the opportunity to develop their talents to best advantage, these programs are immensely beneficial. During the last year the society has been especially successfule Interest. goaded onward by zeal to be up and doing, has culminated in the starting of new projects within the society. One of these is the organization of the Adelphic Orchestra. which not only has aided in enlivening the programs at the regular meetings but has also proved its capabilities at the receptions. The fact that there are two literary societies at Augusmna has naturally given rise to a certain rivalry which, being of a healthy and by no means deteriorating mature, has caused both societies to flourish. Each has special missions to perform. There is a need of a society that conducts meetings in both the Swedish and English languages and fosters an appreciation for Swedish literature. There is also a growing demand for a society which uses English exclusively at its meetings because, as our institution broadens, the inHux of students, coming from other than SwedishuAmerican homes will increase and :1 society must be provided for these also. A retrospect of the work of the literary societies at Augustnna fills one With enthusiasm to continue the good work which has been so successfully carried forward and may we as alumni some day look back upon the benefits derived from our affiliation with one of the two great literary organizations with pleasure and satisfaction. AN ADELPHIAN. WERNER SWANSON, Pres. EVAN ANDERSON, ViceiPres. KNUTE ERICKSON, Mgr. This organization is composed of the three literary societies, Concordia, Phreno- kosmian and Adelphic, and :1 member of any one of these three organizations is also a member of the Lyceum. , Consequently, it is composed of and controlled by the students. Under the direction of the Lyceum thc HObserver, the uHicial organ of the student body, is issued monthly. Improvements are made in the college paper from time to time to keep abreast with the progress of the schoul. Opportunity to enjoy good musical and literary talent is afforded by the lecture course arrangcd for by the Lyceum each year. This lecture course has been patronized liberally the past year by members of the school family and others. fv n n ., ,, : WHE LYCEUM LECTURE x; ENTERTAINMENT $0URSE . lau-AUGUSTANA COLLEG'ETISH' , $ea.;.

DEBATING Debating is not the least of activities at Augustana. Besides a course in Debating and Argumentatiun given by Dr, Bartholomew. the three clubs which comprise the Debating League have continued the work of previous years in training themselves for forensic battles. During the past year two more clubs have been organEzed, namely: the Lincoin club consisting of Academy students. and the Edward Everett club, the htst coeed debating organization at Augustann, An inter-club debate was held during the spring term for the purpose of creating more interest in debating and deciding the club championship of the college. Interest in intercollegiate debating is growing more and more every year. No less than three debates with other colleges have been held during the year, one with our oldetime rival Bethany College, and two in the 1Innmouth-lllinoiS-Augustanzl Triangular debate. The Debating League has been fortunate in securing the serve ices of Prof. A. E. Keiber 0f the Davenport High School whose efficient Coaching has been of great assistance to the dCbnters as well as to the college as a whole. A college has various means of making itself known among other colleges and institutions of the state, and debating is one of the most effective of these means. Augustana is gaining renown among other schools as a literary factor and educational center because of its debating relations. As long as the faculty and students support forensic activities, Augustam will be more advanced on the road to progress. Webster Debating Club OFFICERS. JOHN R. JOHNSON JOSEPH YOUNGSTROM GUSTAV E.

During the past year the local league has gathered statistics and stutiicd conditions concerning the liquor trafhc in Rock Island. This information will undoubtedly prove to he a valuable contribution to the intercollegiate prohibition literature of the laan. The programs rendered during the past year have created considerable interest among the students. The annual convention of the Illinois State Prohibition Association was held at Augustana April 374-. The feature of this gath- ering was the oratorical contest in which representatives from the several colleges of the state battled for forensic supremacy. Miss Helen VViggers represented the Augustana League. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. L. E.

TEGNER. Good literature has a tendency to awaken the latent fumes in one's character and arouse them to be up and doing. It exposes the hast. bids them he guns,- calls forth the good and the nohlct nourishes and encourages them. Literature in any language will do this. that then will not the literature uiritten in the language in which Tegner wrote, that Store of beauty and of wisdom, do for the sons of the North with their chivalrous, rcligium 11nd pensive dispositions? The vaedisermerican cun take deep interest in Americ s'present and future but her past he cannot feel tltzlt he has anything to do with, his blood wtis not in it. American and English literature mar inttErest and even move him, but for real inspiration he must go to the land of the Vikings and to its history. It is this that gees deepest into his soul and makes the lasting impressions. Feeling this and feeling a desire for ITIUI'C extensive study of Swedish than the regular courses offered. societies numhering Five at present have been organized among the students for this purpose. Among the Seminary and College students we find the Society of Belles Lettres holding the same position in America as the Academy in Sweden and in France. VV'ce bctitlc that author whose works should merit it$ ton- demnation! It has been said 11150 that the judgment of this august assembly is taken into consideration in awarding the Nobel prize for literature. Fur :1 year and a half the wurks of the great Strindberg have been studied and during this last term the productions hf the renowned Selma Lagerlof have been subjected to the perusal and criticism of these literary satellites. Tegner and Olof Rudbeck were bestowed signal honors when two uf Augustanals societies consented to be called by the names of these two worthies. Thc Tegner is composed chiefly of Seminary and College students while tllC latter consists of members of the College department only. At their bi-mnnthly meeting a certain work of same author that all have read during the interim is discussed and criticized. Anmng the Academy students we find the Iduna, the only coed society of the live. This society meets every week, and programs of various kinds are rendered. In the forensic line the Torgny Debating Club hohls undisputed sway. Great is the wurk of these 5117 cietics and great must be their results. l'Iat' their work prosper. J.

FOOT BALL I shall gladly comply with the request of Class 1914- and write a short article on Football. I am greatly interested in the game and hupe that it will soon he reestab- lished at Augustana. Football is one of the most vigorous and virile of all pastimes and has the character at a national game in the U. 5. There must he some exceptional quality in a game that can secure such a grip upon the entire student body of :1 nation of a hundred million people. It is surely absurd for the critics to argue that the game can appeal only to the savage and insane, for surely out of the millions of enthusiastic and devoted lovers of the game there can be found thousands who represent the studious, substantial type of youth, those who stand high in the recitation room and debating club. It is a very signiEcant circumstance that practically without exception, people who denounce the game are those who have new;- played it and therefore cannot under- stand it. A brutal and dangeruus game? N01 There are countless fatalities by drowning, skating. and automobiling, The writer played fuutball seven years, and it never injured him, on the contrary he received lasting benefits, physical and other, wise. Regarded strictly from a theoretical standpoint of the physiology of exercise, football is a most valuable game inasmuch as those forms of activity which provide frequent though brief relaxation are far more bcnehcial than those which the strain or muscular tension is uninterrupted. Football gives the very fullest opportunities for the display of carriage and strength as well as for the exercise of skill and judg ment. The game will build hundreds and thousands of stuuthearted, strong willed, ironrnuseled men, the equal of the Spartans at their best. If objection is made upon the ground that young men can develap strength and character without the tae-vmlled.H risks of faetball, then it must be remembered that most of these young men, were it not for football, would probable not undertake any other means of training that would accomplish the same results. This game is for the stouthearted youth with courage to dare and to do. The game develops strength and fortitude and seli-eontrol which we all need to meet the struggles of life. In factA-even a preacher needs football tactics in his work. as for instance, self-relianceeenurageehit the line of Evil hard -work tuwanls the goalifollow the signalsiubey the 'lCaptainlleand Team Work. FELIX HANSON, A.M., PHD. Jamestown, N. Y. The game of Football has proven itself to be the greatest of all college sports. There are definite reasons for this. only :1 few of which can be stated in the course of such it brief article as this. Of the three kinds of football, HRugby, Association, and Intercollegiate, only the last has gained any secure footing in American colleges. It is without doubt the greatest and most spectacular game ever invented, combining in a marvelous Way individual skill and team work. The individual must be physic- ally fit and mentally alert, while the team as a whole must be so well balanced and managed that the individuals making up the team spend their physical power and mental energy in building up the power and eHiCiEncy of the soicalled machine. It was this tendency of massing the plays, culminating in the most effective of all mass playsrthe flying wedge-that made the game dangerous to life and to limb and brought it into disreputc. In order to eliminate the dangerous features and yet pre- serve the spirit of the game, with its marvelous combination of individual skill. and team play, an international rules committee was selected which meets every year after each seasonls play to make necessary changes. During the first few years the committee failed to make the game less dangerous with the exception of eliminating the llHying wedge. It then resorted to rules demanding more open play and, though this at first met with bitter opposition, because it was feared it would make the games too eEeminatc, all colleges have now adopted the open style and are using it more and more, as results have proven that the open play is more easily followed by the spectators than the mass plays, and that individual skill and team work have been enhanced by it. Intercollegiate football of today, as a result of the rules committeels work is perhaps less dangerous than skating, horseback riding, swimming, baseball and many other American uut-door sports that are considered safe. A football team, well man- aged and well trained is a distinct asset to any college today. Poorly managed and poorly trained it is a curse for obvious reasons. There is no better place, that I know of, for a young man to learn the lesson of selincontrnl, than in a welletraincd football team in the midst of a closely contested game, That training is worth many times the east of 99$; of any physical injuries that might be experienced. If rightly played, football develops many of the traits that men need to build up a successful career. Augustana should re-instate football and place it under the Control and supervision of the very best kind of management. C. NL OLANDER, B.D., Galesburg, I11. I have been asked by one of my former parochial school beys, to write a few words on che' merits of football, for the H191+ Raekety-I. Knowing that it was for the interest of Rockety-I and love for his Alma Mater, that prompted him to ask for this article. I could not refuse. When I speak of the merits of football, I do so, not from observation but from experience. During the years 1901 to 1904, it was my great privilege to take part in the game at Augustana, my Alma Mitten For outdoor recreation and physical exercise it has no competitor. for those fit to partake. It is a manly- game, it builds up a strong constitution, it develops determination and perseverance. In contests there is a goal to strive for, victory, is the hope of the Contestant, formidable obstacles in the way, but courage to meet and overcome them. It fosters a determination to succeed. It arouses college spirit and enthusiasm, which will keep the sleepy awake, warm those who are cold in their love, loyality and devotion to their Alma R-Iater. Occasion- ally get some nut into the open air, that otherwise seldom enjoy it. It is a pleasure to look back upon cullege days, to think of students, professors and friends, whose acquaintances one made. who constituted the large school family. May we all be loyal to our dear Augustana, she did much for us. let us all do what we can in return. A sincere greeting to all of my gridiron comrades. EMIL F. BERGREN, A4M., B.D., t07, Faulkner, N.

This thing is more complex, perhaps. than many suspect. Howcvcn all will agrEE that one of the chief characteristics of good sportmunship consists of being fender of fair play for its own sake than of power. An Athletic Team, or the individual players composing this team, when good spurts- men, would rather lose by fair mCEUlS. than win by foul, The true sportsman lst a fair Field and no favor? Be a good loser. This is another requisite of good spurtmanship. A person who is :1 bad loser grows openly furious and revengeful. and it is a most unmnnly SpCCtaCll: that he furnishes for those about him. The spirit that should ptcvail after a dcfrnt, ' is this: Now fellows, we were not able to be winnersi but 1665 show 'em. anyway that we can hi: good lagers.H One should never look upon each game lost as so much honor lost. Though the sportsman is a good loser, however, he is zi precious hard loser. Hc- lmttles t0 the last. He never says die. To use the common expression amung sports- men. he is a dead game sport. which is we may suppose. a sport who cuntimles grime till the end, that is he is never beaten until the last whistl: sounds. A true sportsman is also it good winner. He never gloats ncr brags. he is always modest. All in all the sporting spirit, or the sp' it of faimcss is about the must precinus thing then: is. It is a Final symptom of civilization. Herbert Spencer assures- us that a sense nf justice is Hthe highest farm of altruistic sentiment. Sportsmanship, then is :1 blend of fairness, the grace of :1 good loser, gnmeness. modesty, the grace of :1 gnnd winner and loyalty to the team. COACH. 111 5V 113 w...

NIODERN prophet is no more honored in our day than were the seem of ancient times. He is ridiculed and discredited almost as promptly as he makes known his nugurics. If he paints with bright and gaudy colors, he is a visionary; if his palette contains only sombre, gloomy hues, he is a pessimist, He is regarded as a crank, looked upon with suspicion, and ostracised from the society of level-htnded men. And yet, what WUUltl we dn without our modern prophets? They are to be found in every field of human endeavnr. In business enterprises they are held at a premium. The man who possesses the shtewtlness of judgment and acuteness of fore, sight to anticipate suppiy and demand is a commercial prophet who can command fortunes. The builder of empires who stretches his rails of steel across traekless wastes and converts them into populous, cultivated plains is r: seer 0f the hrst rank, to whose keenness of vision advancing civilization owes a debt of everlasting gratitude. Oft-times he is ridiculed and laughed tn scorn, but when passing years have proved the wisdom of his venture, he is extolled :is 21 man of surprising foresight. The world can only appreciate results; it rarely realizes the worth of the dreams of genius until they are realized. What is true of secular enterprises is equally true of religious endeavors. It is the prophetic, far-sighted policy that nearly always meets with the greatest opposition, but proves to be the most productive in the end. We have had abundant example of this in the history of our own church in America. The First Swedish settlers in America were quite satisfied with having their present religious needs supplied, with little thought for the future. We need nut here dwell on the sad fate of the Lutheran churches they founded. It was the failure to provide institutions in which to train men fur service within the church that proved the fatal mistake, It was far easier to look to the mother country to furnish spiritual leaders, but it proved a disastrous policy. The early Lutheran churches in America have been lost to us. The later Swedish pioneers possessed greater prophetic: vision. The need of edu- cational institutions was early recognized, and the principle that a church cannot long 116 exist without them became one of the fundamental propositions upon which Augustana College and Theological Seminary was established. The wisdom of this principle has long been demonstrated, and the large family of schools that have since sprung up in various parts of out Synod has shown the value of our Christian institutions of learn- ing, It is in our Seminary, however, that out common interest centers. It is here that the future spiritual leaders of our Synod receive their training; it is here that those ideas and doctrines are inculcated that are later impressed upon the people; it is here they obtain that stamp which afterwards becomes a marked characteristic of the church. Sn close is this relationship between Synod and Seminary, that it may truthfully bl: said that the one reflects the life and spirit of the other. When this fact dawns upon us with all its import, we will realize the necessity of making our theological training school as ideal in every respect as lies within our power. If prophetic foresight is necessary in business and all other human enterprises, it is all the more needed when we are about the Mustcrls business? We need to plan and build largely for the future, if our Seminary is to fulfill the missinn for which it is intendcdt It is scarcely possible within the limited scope of an article such as this to point out the needs of our theological school, but we may indicate :1 few. First and fate- mast, of course, it is necessary to have a strong and eFlicient faculty, wide awake and conscious t0 the great problems confronting the Christian church. Another need is :1 Seminary hall, with class rooms, chapel, and private study rooms for members of the faculty. A Seminary dnrmitory! also. has certain advantages that are keenly missed at present. Such a building could easily pay for itself. It should not be. as some would have it, a halcyon retreat where no dreams of room rent need disturb the occupant. The theological student is no parasite on society, and the less he is taught to rely an the philanthropy of others, the more self-reliant and competent will he be in his active ministry. Too much stress can scarcely be laid on the study of the great social problems of the age. A prophetic vision of the future must inevitably reveal how these quai- ticns will grow in importance year by year, challenging the resourcefulness of church, school and state. The church has not done its whole duty in the past; and it is not strange, therefore, that it now finds many strong. antagonistic forces opposed to it. To reconcile these and to prove that the church is in sympathy with every movement that tends to correct existing evils and lift up humanity l5 summhing that should occupy the most serious thoughts and etinrts uf the leaders of the church. The minister nf the Gospel shnuhl he prepared to meet these problems. Never has he been in need of better equipment than in our day. The future Augustana pastor must look to the Seminary for this equipment, for without it he will illltl himself seriously hzmtli- capped. One uf the greatest dangers that has ever threatened the church of Christ is that of Ending satisfaction in merely yielding assent tn urtlmdnx views 51nd for- getting to practice Christ's teachings. The church needs to get down to the level of mankind and its needs. if it shall successfully preach the Guspel. The inherent reserve of the Lutheran church has to :1 large extent caused it to hesitate in grappling with some of these problems in a practical way. Conservnti 1 is tilwztys wiser in the lung run than expediency Yet there is danger uf ezirrying this tun far. hvll't' should we remain in the background as indifferents when there is a moral issue or a righteous principle at stake? Why should we permit other Protestant denomi- nations to look upon us with n$kance and wonder where we stand? We have nothing of which we need be ashamed. We have a sacred trust, a rich treasure, to impart to America in the pure doctrine and glorious faith of the Church of the Reformation. but we must net belie that faith by our deedst nor must we hide it under a bushel. Let us permit it to shine forth in all its brilliance. Let us preach it from the hou5tL tops. Let us not deceive ourselves by the belief that we have aught tn gain by building a Chinese wall of exclusion mound ourselves. Finally a word on the language question. A glimpse into the future reveals to us the vast importance of mrrectl; solving this problem. We see visions of a great Lutheran church in this land. We look forward hopefully to the day when the Church of the Reformation will rank Hrst in numhers among the Protestant denomina- tions in America. But the language of that church will be the language of the land. To prepare for this transition and anticipate it as far as possible becomes, therefore. anether task for the Seminary. There is a demand even now for exclusively English courses on the part of those who are preparing for English work. They should not be handicapped by heing compelled tn pursue some of the more important subjects in Swedish. As the demand for English in our Synod continues to grow it becomes imperative that even Swedish pastors be able to use the language of the land Huently. A Certain Norwegian theological school requires that every graduate be able t0 deliver a sermon in creditable English, and no one can tleny'thc wisdom of the rule. The future of the Synod lies largely in the manner in which these problems are met in the Seminary. May we therefore do all that lies within our power to make it as ideal and emcient as any in the land, that it may serve to attract and invite the best of our young manhood to prepare for the ministry and to conseernte their lives in the service of the-Master.

Quite :0 the cunuary, he likes fun and pitches in and does his share jun as thnrnughly as if it wen: a Greek lesson.

These things are hard to describe for they, like all things beauiiful, Slay so short a time in one place. Bubbles is very much unlike her name, for she is very much of'a reality but lhe likeness lies in her being driven hcre and there by an unseen sumelhing. Her nature 55 like the eHervcsccnce of champagne. Her eyes twinkle with the keen under- standing of a good joke Itaut beneath the merriness lies a look of steadiness and seriousness of purpose. In short, she is all that one can expect-a good friendha hearty and amiable companion not nnly for a college Career but for tile journay of life it- self. REINIE Reinie made his first analysis of material things in the balmy cuuntry of Illinnis. There was not lhe sign of a howl, but his large blue eyes in the sparsely haired hcad looked abnut him and. said, By Gadski, what have we here? Ever since that time, even as his hair crop grew littlE by little, the same question has been on his mind. His life has been one 0F analysis and he has been fonunate in finding a little good in each one of us. So he has friends, many and lasting. Reinie is guud- headed in a fault, and to typify him in a few words would be to say lhnt he is one of 111: very few who don't let the left hand know what thc right is doing.

He is peaccvloving and kind and goes about easing dis- putes with his 50ft voice and cxamplic manner. it is hard to find fault with his character; he is quiet and meditative. When he speaks it is in well chosen words, showing maturity of thought. G. G. will enter the ministry and there produce a great noise by his quietness and make men feel his preaching by his example. DOLL. A doll is more than useful, for ever since time immemomble has the doll been a useful article. but our Doll is higher in the line of creation; he is a poet, if nut by nature, at least by necessity. In him are found the qualities of the poet. for he has paxsian, imaginalinn and tact. Maybe they are unevenly developed but, be that as it may, he is at all times a good companion. He has the faculty of weighing evidence in the scale of jus- tice and this may be for him a great advantage in future life. His love for music has waned but that for law has doubled. He will remain near his Alma Male:- and there practice the sentiment that Hthe quality of mercy is not strained. HEx-Ew.

THINK it is out classmate and brother hCords. who holds caveat on the discovery 0f the truth that man is naturally a gregarious animal. But I found out lattly that the idea was already germinated by Socrates. Now considering that friend Cords is a modernist, living some five hundred years after the big barefoot philosopher. I have an inkling: that Mr. Cords has been mausing in same Platonic dialogue when: he humped up against this most impressive truth, launched it, giving it a new dress, and claimed authorship thereof. 1 might havc reprovcd livlr. Cards for his plagiarism had it not been that uC. W., in dis, Cussing this question with ma, assured me that a truth belongs to the man who can- ceives it and takes possession of it, and that there are no patents issued for truths; that even Socrates did not inwnt the truth spoken of above, but merely discovered it; so did EECordsf' Thu: old Greek Cynics and Cyrcnaics were mistaken when they thought that true happiness consists in individualism; that men should strive to become independenti self-suH-icicnt. and damiie anti kittic, fatten and batten their own sweet egos.H I think we are Safe in adopting, rather: the conviction of brother iiCords. namely, that man was math: to live with man and far man, the assumption of Antisthenes and Aristippus to the contrary notwithstanding. True happiness consists in mixing with our fellmvmen. sharing their sorrows and partaking in their joys, and rendering services with a ready heart. Real success can be attained only through co-opemtion; mid co-opcration implies mutual understand- ing-iovt:. Man can not he even physically healthy unless he is able to adjust himself properly in relation to his fciiou'qnen, and forget himself in eager service for others.

Nlabel-you must not worry. The modem means of transportation and communicatinn have brought the members of tilt human family into very intense and intim te relatiuns. We understand and respect each other much more than in those gouti Uiden days when every man that lived beyond the boundaries Of our particular district, was regarded with suspicion and considered necessarily hos- tile. We have climinatcdetahondesioughed the individualistethe self-spccialist as inimical to true development; we consider him a parasitic humhug iwith Emphasis on the hugj ; we have declared him a supernuility-that is a noncntity; and we have given him the Hitlbusi'f, With a number twelve hmgan. But what has all this got to tin with the class uf 1916? Patience, Mabel, pa- tience! Yuu sac, ail that I have said here is merely an interprctationhrcpresentation 0f the sophomore viewpoint. I am Saying what I am saying in behalf of our class: I am Expressing the thoughts and sentiments of our Class. As an individual I am unfolding these things from within my own heart and mind. but when I do 50, I am alsn revealing the principles of my fclluw mcmhcrs. Really, Mabel we ail have iththat spirit of thc hive; it is contagcous; the Dutchman has it, HIrish', has it, iiJinksV' has it, HSwany has itthut what is thi: use of naming nameSEive m'! have it. We have the stick-togcthcr qualities. Once on a day came two burly freshmcn tr: me and asked me What it was in thc Sophumotc class that made it so distinct and differenththat made it 50 successful; that made it so superinr in FootbaIl-so splendidly victorious in the class-wars and so altogether lovely in its iiclass. But particularly, what caused it that the Sopho- mores are so eminently intelligent? And as my friends, the Freshmen appeared to he in honest search of truth, I gently informed them that we had no secrcts; that the secret of our superiority and distinction was. in reality. no secret. .Vly friends, spoke Ihthe things you appear to be sadly void of, which we possess and which account for our uniqueness, art unitj'hreiationship-mutual understanding, or- ganization, patriotism, and an impelling powerhlovc. Given five hundred husky men, fresh from the tomficlds, without systematic organization a training in working Hen massc to effect a common end, the power of that rustic five hundred i5 nix, null and void. It would be impossible to get the hunch tugether at a given battlefield, for instance, at a given time, to fight for liberty. without previous organization. If the army has had no previous discipline, prcpnrmiun, it is absurd and ridiculous for any man to try to assume gencralship, at ti critical moment, and telephone some crazy- whetc demanding that fifty men he sent at once to some Rock Island Southern. or other, to Fight for g10r3'.-Nu friends; there must be orderiharmony; there must be an uesprit dc corps,i-ra spirit of the hivc; oneness of spirit is the sine qua mm the non plus uitmf, the summum bonum of a Class. And this. too, brother Freshmen is the secret of our intelligence and wisdom. You see, a brotherly spirit hrceds a receptive and teachahlc mind; and a receptive and reachable mind naturally becomes imbued with knowledge. Then through cheerful effort, knowledge is manufactured into wisdom. W'e entertain the attitudt that every man, even though a Freshman or a clodhoppcr, is able to impart wmr useful informa7 tion, We cultivate a listening and observing attitude. You woridcr that we are so happy and smile so muchiVVhy shouldn't we be happy? The spirit of friendship makes us happy, and the consciousness nf possessing wisdom makes us chortle and gurgle with glee. And the Freshman withdrew gently, with minds laden with fresh things, to pro- claim them to their mates. I was left alnnc. And my heart went out to my Class- mates: I wondered where each one might be just then. And I took my hat and my cane and went out to look for them that I might talk and laugh with thtm. 152 IIL : r 111 . . i. El 1:1 lllxnulIrI ? In. .1... 163 prhomores OFFICERS. PROF. A W.

USCEPTIBILITY to the inHuence of prejudice is :1 pan of 11111113; nature which is seldom completely conquered. An wholly unbiased Opinion is likc unto a precious jewel, desired by Illl but obtained only b1: 3 fEu-x It is also true that genuine specimens of that jewel are so rarely seen by the majority of people that as :1 rule their conception of the 31111112 is more 01' less tlistnrmdi C011- sequcntly we very frequently hear the joyful cry nf one who believes himself to have at last discovered the much sought treasure, but alas! ton often his bright hopes are 01113. born to wither in 21 shadow of disappointment, when under the eye of the expelt the gem is found to be no gem at 1111.

Yes and no. Author- ities diEcr. Some scientists contend that the mind of the average Freshman is too young :0 contain even so much :13 :1 distorted idea, while still others claim that during the rapid developmem oi the young miml it is passihlc and even probable that some ideas and contentions may be acquired. They argue further that under the conscientious and careful guidance of the Sophomore, who is profoundly wise 11nd can therefore vulun- tarilv advise his less experienced schoolmate on almost anv question hum the mcthud of reserving 5c1ts for ch1pcl to the best mint to use on stahdrpipcs-undcr such expert le1dership the Freshman c1n110t fail to lay hold of some 1ncient, wmnout excuse for an idea. Such art: the opinions of men who have made it their lifcis work to solve the mystery of 21 Freshmanis brain and since this question is rather personal our modesty will of course not permit us to vemure an opinion. However, we feel duty hound to confess, that because of :1 consciousness of our susceptibility to the inHuencc of prejudice we very cautiously undertake to set forth :1 few facts concerning our Class 11nd our activities. We shall earnestly endeavor to tell the truth, nothing hut the truth and as much of it as the space will permit. On the third day of last September the Class of 1917 entered upon its historv as a member of our happy college family. Never before in the history of Augustana'has that 0111 chapel bell called together a Freshman class as large :15 the one which Was gathered for devotional services that morning. There were shim: eighty of u54eighty hungry minds, eighty willing hearts, eighty ambitious Spirits had come to share the opportunities and blessings which mother Augustemn does 50 hauntifiilly supply VVith- in a week we had accuslumed ourselves to our new surroundings and the organizatinn of our class was soon duly accomplished. During that first week we framed three things-in The Rules and Regula- tions?, t21 our lessons tycs we zictuaily did that week butiL i3j we learned that it was the duty of the Freshman class to pI'UVIdC excitement for HThe Class thntls till Class. The above mentioned duty was brought to our attention in a rather mysterious mannerethat is there was something dark about it-un it-un the smoke-stack. You see it was like this-nne beautiful September mom a certain Freshman was wending his way toward Cupid's Hunting Grounds lthe library of c0ursc1 when he dis, covered ti large dliub of paint in the form of a 1916, on our otherwise erect and spotless smokeistackellSaniFransis-cul what do you think of that? The Sophomores had deemed their war-pnint. We held a council of war and decided that. WV: should worry! For several dag'Sennd nights-the smokeistack was the object of much attention. Sometimes the laugh was on us and then again it was the Sophomores who lonked foolish. However the activities around the healingiplant were brought to a sudden end when llPrexy announced that the painters. union was not out on :1 strike and Augustzum College was not bankrupt. During the lull which followed this annuuncement we challenged the iiSophsH to a foutbal1 game and they accepted, Beth classes now turned their attention toward preparing for the coming contest. After several weeks of hard practice we met on the gridiron where the Clzms of 1917 First met dcfeat-und I might also add that on that same day the Class of 1916 tasted real victory for the Hrs: time. The next chapter deals with the banquets. We laid our plans carefully and us the eagerly anticipated hour drew near we were confident of success, but such was not our destiny. The Sophs not only made :1 clean gct-awny but also carried off our class president. Such is the xccord of our first encounters with our rival class. Tu be sure it is thus far a record of defeats. Evidently the Class of 1917 is no: the most illustrious class at Augustana, nor the most wonderful combination of all thE exceptional quali- ties which have ever been gathered tngether nu Zion Hill. Nu we desire not to be 50 described, for it means nothing. If we have only pruvcn ourselves to be true sportsmen, game scrappets and good losers,H we le'C content, for such :i spirit cannot always fail and some day we shall ride on that tide, in the aEaits at the Class of 1917, which shall carry us on to final success.

HE VVurld is growing better; and in this era of evolutionary progress we can not fail to note the rapid strides of advancement made by Augustann, the Seniors. the llRockety-l. etc., and last but not least, the Academy. The ilw lustriuus Class of ,l-l- has given us the opportune privilege of here portraying ourselves as we really are for in the following pages we shall be seen as others see us. Some one once said that it was heyoml the realms of pussibility to describe or define the llPrep. And surely nn one would make the attempt without being able to quote lVebster :15 authority. lVehSter. however, made no effort to deline the term, and the l'UnabridgedA: offers nu excuse for its a istencc. But let me assure you that had l-Vebster tried to enumerate the good qual ies of the Prepsf' he would have devoted the best part of his life to that one volume. But we are only human. seldom in time for hreakfzst, always in time for Chapel, and occasionally prepared for rccitatinns. we often attempt but never succeed in bluf- fing the Profs, and we are given tn understand that we will not attain a proficiency in that gentle art until we have entered the Seminary. Naturally we are 100de upon as future wearers of the black cloth. We are found in all departments of the school. In the College and Seminary our finished products are found. We are represented in the Literary Societies, Debating Clubs. Musical Organizations, and in all branches of Athletics. We have also de- veloped 2 habit of wanting to be heard from at the Lyceum Election, and would rather get up at five chlock on election morning to grease our own steam roller than to ride on the well organized machines of the Higher Ups. We also listen to the plea of the manager of the Lyceum and invest in two tickets apiece for the Lecture Course and have lofty aspirations as to who should make use of the extra ticket. Hare we must admit our deficiency viz. the scarcity of girls in our de- partment, and therefure the most at us must necessarily seek our consolation among the other departments. This brings us unto dangerous ground, for we fear to trample upon the toes of our Cnllcginns, zmd the Sems claim to have a monopoly on the Conservatory .Girls. But when in quest of the eternal feminine we realize that all is fair in love. and war and we do not stop to indulge in these petty sentimentalities. But seriously you will find us one united body, striving for a better education. The Academy is :1 verjtable lodestone for those who missed the opportunity of at- tending High School and to those who choose the Academy :in preference to :1 High School it offers the double advantage of superior instruction and College environments.

This question will answer itself if we ask another quesrion: what would we as Cullegians do without recitals, concerts, ur music at Chapel? We would all become fire-eating buok-worms, nneesided, without any conception of the beauty which only The ilFine Art can supply. It would be as society without association. Imagine poetry without meter or feet or any ar- ranged order! or a church without song! It would all show forth, a narrow, simple, uncultured side of life. He who can live without these beauties would live an unnatural life, for our souls crave and long for that line of aesthetics which can only be satisfied by well trained artists. be it on the instruments or with the voice. Therefore, on account of these prerequisites or rather demands we have at Augustana a Conservatory. with its efficient faculty, capable of giving us students the choicest of music, besides a wellibalanced training for those enrolled in this department. Our institution is cheered by the programs and numbers which the Conservatory of Music and Expression supply. Our programs contain such wholesome numbers as require skill and training in their rendering. We may with a serious thought quote Dr. Bartholomew in the Introduction to his Relation of Psychology t0 Music'I where he says: NIusic is more than practise, more than finger-gymnastics; 0n the other hand, it is not the exclusive prerogative of so-called genius. whatever that may meanemusic may be cultivated by those who are not geniuses in the proper sense of that word. In other words it requires training guided by the most capable of instructors and artists in these lines. Such necessary instruction Augustana Conservatory offers, beyond a doubt. Great progress has been made during the last few years, within the whole College of Fine Arts. The instruction given is of the highest standard and has gained for the department a widespread reputation worth noticing. If observation is made it will be seen that our Conservatory Students hail from every part of territory with which the Synod is alhliated. If ever Augustana will develop into a University, as we hope it will, we have all the reason in the world to believe that the Conservatory of Fine Arts will he one of the lead- ing departments then as well as now. At many state institutinns this department is neglected until the very last. but not so at AuguStnnn; here it ranks with the foremost. Thus the Roekety-I 39H- extends a hand for good-wishes and success to our Con- servatury. Conservatory Graduates Emu ABRAHAMSON. Rock Island, 111. Elomlian. NINA ANDERSON. Kewanee, 111. Piano.

BY PROF. A. KEMI'E. HE answer to this question is, practically a statEmEut of the m:nfs ccnnnmic activity. h-Vhat he does toward satisfying his wants and what his relations are to those with whom he is direc'tiy in enntact and what his relations are to in, dustriai society at large. means his. ecunumie life. As sunn 215 men try to pro- cure the necessaries of life and satisfy their wants, they soon hnd that they must come in contact with other men. Man has never existed in a perfectlt isolated state. This mutual relationship and dependence among mem in the prunes; at getting :1 living, constitutes the fmtndation of industrial society. Our wants become greater and more varied as civilization advances. When the philmithrupist talks. of the poor growing poorer, he refers to the difficulty of procuring the increased wants rather than the non- satisfactinn of necessary wantst It is relative poverty rather than absolute poverty. In the present age struggle of making a living there is needed a more thorough economic knowledge of facts. How men get a living in the ages of the past; hnw they get a living today; how we get our income and how we spend it. These are economic facts which are so Closely related to our welfameto Our very being in filtb-that its study ought to-he part of every course of study. The political growth, the existence of great corporations and the formation of large labor organizations are some special reasons why this question of I:nmking a living,' should be given special attention in all the courses of study in the United States at the present time. The financial success nf individuals and 0f corpurations is in the main due to the systematic methnd of keeping account of income and expenses, carefully guarding that a credit balance'is on hand at the end of each year. We all want the necessities of life. We not only want them. but we mutt have them. iWIat1 must eat or die? In the next place we want the comforts of life. We want than! in Order to live as we were def signed to live, above the brute creation. In addition to the comforts of life many men want certain luxuries. It is in the satisfying of these wants a careful and thorough study should he made. Too often we mistake as to what we really need. Too Often thrift is associated with saving, thus savoring of penuriousness. Thrift, however, in its broad and true sense signihes not nnly saving, but also intelligent living and efheient ex- penditure of time and energy. The aspiration that rises no higher than the desire to accumulate sufficient money so as to have enough tu live on the income is surely :1 sorry ambition. An intelligent appreciation of that us we sow, we shall reap,, will greatly solve many of the economic and Hnancial problems before us. Individual responsibility should he taught by precept and by example from the very beginning, and the wisa and effective expenditure of time, money and energy in after years is largely dependent upon this early training. Why not also ask ourselves the question What am 1 living for ? aria 2., .STnozznwniv. CWEOEWW . A , . . . . A . Cram 0: Fig. uznm bzcgmcz . . . . A . . . . F. New: 0.507. . . . . . . . 15:3.

T ry Rock Island First Augustann College and Theolugical Seminary is located in the bcnutiful i'1I city of Rock Island, which is situated on the Illinois bank of the Mississippi . Rivet just above the place where the Rack River empties into the mighty I Fathers of Waters. The city is a part of the famuus Tri-Cities, the great L manufacturing center at the Middle West. Because of its advantageous loca- tion, factories have sprung up which manufacture goods and ship to all parts of the country as well as across the waters. The manufacture of farm imple- ,. ments, plows especially, is the thief occupation of the community. This I naturally results in that the city is flourishing in business and civic enterprise. L The banks and mercantile establishments are among the best, most progressive i and firmly established in the state. The stores of Rock Island furnish compiete stock of hrst class merchandise. The residents of the city as Well as the 5tu- dents can be supplied with whatever article they need, and if not, then the , article is nut in the market of the land. The educational facilities, including the public school system, the high school and manual arts department, Augustana College and Theological Semi- nary, and Villa de Chantal, are the best that can be secured. The many it churches, Y. M. C. A., the charitable and social welfare organizations do much ' toward the mural uplift of the inhabitants.

Undeniably it must stand on its own merits and must reLy hn the discern- ment of the true musician for recognition.

The Haddorg is the choice of the Augustana Conservatory of Music. M r. Victor Bergquist, directory states: Ihl take great pleasure in recommending the Haddorff. We purchased eightcen Haddorff uprighls and grands fur our conservatory and they are giving entire satisfaction The pianos are subjected to eight and ten hours a day practicn work and withstand the sevcra usage most remarkably.
