The figure is nut an imposing one. nor one that by 21 majesty of stature 0r peremptoriuoss of gait makes you feel a shrivoliug sense of an approaching somebody, whose shoes you are not worthy to bear. Slowly he approaches with measured steps, not insistent steps, howeverimuny a time. indeed, have we seen u sudden 1min verse squall actually push him hack in his intended progress. so that it became necessary to retraverse the distance, which under more kindly conditions would have counted for so much advance. And how patiently, with what hopeful optimism did he resume his interrupted price. trusting ultimately, us it seemed, to some kindly Providence, for a final safe arrival at his desired destinationf the history room perchance. Or a like hnistemus wind would suddenly snatch his hat, whereupon he would at first look just the least bit dismayed at the sud- dcnness 0f the deprivation. but the next movement he had already resumed his centre, and would proceed with u sweet philosophical hopefuhicss to contem- plate a recovery of his loss. To see his features, you will have to be quite close upon him, for he travels with :1 gentle downward tilt of his hat. us if to prevent the many material im- pertinenciL-s of the objective world from impinging upon his nerves and suh- vcrting his mind from the internal and spiritual world, in Which it is fond to dwell. But once you are upon him and he jerks his head up to meet you, and then greets you the cheerfullest, most radiant visage, and then and there does he zlhanrlon hi5 pnudemus l'efiectinu and you hecome the 0110 thing in all the world of interest and concern to him. And those Of us who have enjoyed the guud fortune of being members in his classes, have known a teacher who does not give perfunctm-ily and with a sense of irksome condescension from his own vast knowledge. but one who by virtue of a natural disposition to sympathize, gives in a manner which makes you feel the glatlness of the giving. And through his own indefatigable interest in his subjects. he kindlcs in you zin interest far them also. We all appreciate how the unrelenting mutine uf teaching, with :1 its attendant ullloveiy fcatul'Bchnl- ions and indocilc students, etc, must laboriously tax the fortitude and forbear- :ane of the most heroic teuchcr-and yet, how unweuryingly, day after day, does he bring with him into the classroom the same unfailing gentleness! He is an historian, most admirably adapted for this difflcult nii'icc by virtue of a bmudness of vision, and a sympathetic appreciation of the manifold forces that move mankind, and that rarest of all gifts, an unprejudiced evaluation and judgment. There is no tincture nf fanaticism, no preclusion, no unupenness about his ideas and opinions; hut always there is a sweet and inviting modarnte- Hess, and an honest receptivity-charactcristics par excellence of a mind for whom the gmis 0f wisdom hear no grudge. Even that gentle suhduedncss of his voice and deliberate tempo of his utterance tcum grai'ilate loquituri betray this internal dispassionateness and temperateness of his thought. Or have you ever, in his classes, modestly divulged some darling theory'! a or opinion' to yourself, relevant-ur at least you thought it relevanttto sums matter under discussion-;md how graciously, and with what paternal ienicncy has he not cuuntcnanced each such maiden specuiatiou of yours, even though, as a matter of fact, ynur ambitious flightsu had 0ftrtime5 been must woefully awry! No! He is not a tyrant t0 thunder into extinction the first trembling beginnings of serious thought. Venerable Doctor! W'e blush to tause your gentle heart. any disappoint- ment or grief. But upon reflection. we must confess that the multitudinous names of the English kings have sunk with us into the twilight region of the semiicqnscious; even the stirring events of the French Revolution me less and less agitating our consciousness. Alas! Only a few isniateci landmarks are still barely fastened by slender and quivering tcndrils to the body of our mem- m-y. But aside from these bloodless and isolated items, which never could claim but an alien relationship with us, there is a something warm and breathing that has instilled itself intn the vital tissue of our- heart and mind-it is the ever- living iniiuence of your gentle personality. If we were to compute our success, as your students. propurtionateiy to the mere iqimnhlm of facts which we carry away with us in our memory, we should have to confess a rather equivocal success. But when we measure it according to the sweetening influence of your spirit, we can but rejoice in our heritage. liildmimfianc fr: landcmus, cf, 3i Immm suppedz'fct, siin-ilitudinc columns. KARL P.

With a remarkably swift change of attitude, se- ealletf Liherul thought, mice 50 fearful 0f the Medieval; has cast itself wooingly upon the heart of the Middle Ages for u snlutiun nt' the great question: When, where, and hmv does the Modern Age arise? It is true, former scholarship overlooked vital historical details. As present-day culture and education since :1 full quarter of a century at least lost its love for the religious spirit and means of the Reformation. it also lost its fear of the lledieval and, as in all Liberal I periods, even fell in love with Bledievnlism. Hence. only rarely do We in prosent-day Liheml circles find a warm and true sense of the birth of the Modern Age in the Reformation, there precisely. Various are the causes of this astonishing change. Least of these is the added wealth of historical insight into Bledievul times. More powerful is the already noted universal decay of Christian faith in the ranks of the cultured and edu- cated. Then, too, the subtle and dangerous renaissance of the Jesuit ideal of education is at work again in the world, just us before the Thirty Years' 'qu'. I might also add a philosophical motive: The developmental tracing of his- turical movements to their first beginnings. This hunt for first sources of great historical streams ten commonly effects a. confusion of mind. The simple germinal kinships 0f the Past are identified with the allied later complex his- torical phenomena, into which a wealth of new life has been poured, and which show what Bergson calls the evcr-enriched uCreative Evolution. Modern History may belooked at merely as the inrush of a new culture and I :lrtand science Then the Renaissance will seem to he the secret of its up- pearing. Will this hold? Why does the Modern Era break through only in the lands where the Before mution works directly, or, as in France. indirectly? Italy was the center of the Renaissance. It touched somewhat even Spain, Austria. and Poland, The Renaissance of these lands and the hI-Iunmnism of Germany were of a kind. Yet the great national regeneration of the Reformation countries failed to reach the Renaissance realms. In a far later age. and then by the southward pressure from Protestant lands and Protestant civilization. culture. science and edueue tion. dicl llodern History in the fuller sense begin to dawn in Italy. Spain has barely begun to come into Modern life yet. Mark the further signs of trail- hlnzing: Only in those parts of the world where Protestant civilization types operate, in Africa and Asia and the isles of the seas, do we have the onmarch of Modern History. Catholicism itself is most vital where? In the lands with a Protestant civilization, Germany. England, America. Elsewhere she is dor- mant and Medieval. Modern History is more than the bare History of the Intellectual Class. to use the title of an otherwise superb Syllabus of Historical Lectures by Professor J. H. Robinson of Columbia, also author 0f the fine work, Petrarch 09140. It is the thorough uphreak from secret lifeidepths 0f the deepest question uf 4- 797 7 PAGE 33 human life: The question of heart and conscience, 1113185 relation to hi3 God. Because Luther, hcgraced of God. voiced as none before him since Paul this life-renewing and lifc-organizing prohlem, and found in the Word of God the adequate answer of peace and new life. therefore Luther and the Reformation is the vital centre of the new day. Rome could absorb the Renaissance and remain hIedienxl. She emild not absorb the Reformation. The late em which had begun to drift from the Reformation is collapsing and is being washed cut into the incarnadiued ocean of a Worid W'ul'. hindern History has pro- gressed soundly in the degree that the Reformation spirit and program has been preserved and developed upon. Rome tried by the Jesuit world-view to bring history back to the Bliddle Ages. The Thirty chrst 'War, with its Reformation principle, saved the day, at awesome costs. The French Revolution broke with the Reformation in atheistic hatred of the Divine Word, as well as of French absolutism. Only when life returned to paths of spiritual safetyt did history gain its modern poise and vitality. Our late age unee more, in its Darwinianism launched a massive program of total divorce from the religious life and spirit of the Refurmatiun, and lo! 5L world-collapse follows. It is uuprogressive, reac- tionary, Medieval, unmodern to forget the program of the Reformation: Mum's deepest, Chiefest, hnest, truest interest-his relation to God! Ah, but we must add, his relatiun to God and God's relation to man in that illuminating, life- creative evangelical sense which the Reformation sets forth by the Scriptures. Neither Petrarch nor Voltaire could give mankind the regenerative organizing principle for total Eife, enabling by the grace of God the unfoldment of the fullest human activity in Church and Home and State, open to corrections in detail, but safe in its central spirit, scope and purpose. How did that principle come into human history? By Luther and the Refor- mation of the sixteenth century, Grasp man at his heart, and you know man. See man in the total range of his life-relations for Time and for Eternity, and you have an inclusive view. Comprehend that man must have his deepest questions answered first, and you meet man's universal needs. Bring man into the main stream of Divine Provi- dence and Redemptive Life, and he will be well on the way t0 the Fair Havens of his yearnings and cryings and pleadings. Grand is Gothek confession: 'tWe nuwise know what all in general we owe to Luther and the Reformation. We have become freed from the fetters of spiritual Cgeistiger't provincialism. By virtue of our ever-growing culture we have become capable of returning to the source and to grasp Christianity in its purityt We once more have the courage to stand with firm feet on Godts earth and to feel ourselves in our divinely gifted humanity. Eliminating the tincture of pantheistic estheticism that is sprayed over these words of the greatest prophet of secular modern humanism, their fresh insight forms a corrective of presenteday thoughts which seek the origin of Modem History in Petrarch, 01' the Italian Late Renaissance, 01' the German Humanism, or Puriw tanism, or the French Revolution, or Darwin, or Deutschland ueber Alles. Hail to Luther arid the Reformation, the prophecy of mankind's sole abiding hopes! Hail to the Dawn that finds its zenith in the everlasting Kingdom of God! ADOLF HULT. PAGE 34 The Tri-Cities IT would be difficult to find anywhere on the map of our country another luculity that combines So many points of interest and of civic and social value as the triecities of Rock Island, Molina and Davenport In many ways, this is an exceptional community. There are few cities in our country that are so widely and so favorably known, not only throughout the nation, but else in foreign lands. This is a great industrial and commercial center from which radiate inHuences that. reach tn the utmost bounds of our country. Rock Island has a national reputation thmugh its great arsenal and government works, and its railway system; hicline is known throughout the civilized world for its famous Deere plows and numerous other agricultural implements; Davenport is rated as one of the most important trade centers in the Middle West. This community is dominated by the spirit of big business with its many millions of invested capital, its enterprising managers, and its controlling iniluence in financial circlesibig business; which has its eye up'on the larger life of man, which sees in the business man more than a mere money gatherer and money dispenser, but a factor in the community life who values the service side of business and plays an important part in everything,r that works for progress, for social and moral uplift, for better housing, better sanitation. better food and clothing. better conditions of living, better educational advan- tages for all classes of people. As El manufacturing and distributing center, this community has few equals in all the land. The products of its shops, the best of their kind, go to the ends of the earth; its captains of industry are known in the councils of capital and business from end to end of our great republic; its military prestige is recog- nized everywhere; its educational fame is nationwide. The tri-cities are a center of population, numbering about 180,000 industrious, thrifty and loyal people who are ever ready to do their part for the promotion of the common welfare. There is a metropolitan air about these municipalities. There is no lack of wealth, many of the citizens being millionaires; there is culture and refinement to satisfy the most fastidious; there are numerous societies and circles whose membexs have attained high and honorable rank. The best of every kind of public entertainment is attracted hither. Musical recitals, lectures, symphony orchestras, grand opera, theatrical performances of the first rank are brought here each year and receive liberal patronage. This is an index of the artistic taste of our people and speaks well for their culture life. It has often been observed that the tri-cities are a favorite place for the holding of all kinds of conventions, so that they may appropriately be called the Con- vention Cities. This may be attributed partly to the hospitality of the people. and partly to the fact that this region is noted for exceptionally many places of interest which are a special attraction to visitors and sightseers. The three cities are phygaimlhr very closely connected, forming in fact one large city. A stranger going from Rock Island to Molinc would not perceive at what point he passed out of one city into the ether, Forty-sixth streeti Rock 4 - 1977 PAGE 35 Island, being First street. Bioline. Rock Island and Duvcnlmrt on opposite hanks of the riven are likewise hound together by sti-eet-cai line, several ruil- way lines, ferry boatsi and two bridges, making transpm-tatimi very easy. Socially and connnercially, they are also closely identified. While each is zealous to pronmte its own welfare. there is :i spirit at cu-operaliun in all matters pertaining to the larger interests of the connnunity. The triicities Lire intimateiy connected with the life of our Augustuim. school family Augustanu College is to be congratulated upon its fartunate location. enjoying. us it does, many peculiar advantages which few other schools: can houst of. It is easy of access from all directions both by rail and by WEItCr. It is located in the midst of the earth and not on the outskirtsi where it is in living communication with what is going on in the wide world of commerce, politics, society, art and letters. It is a beacon light set upon 21 hill where it can be seen from near and from fair, and from which it radiates its helpful light to the four points of the compass. Augustunu is highly favored in respect to library facilities. There is, first of all, our own Denkiuumi Memorial Library, which is rapidly taking rank as one of the foremost reference libraries in this part of the country. Then each of the cities has its own city library, very well equipped in works of fiction and general literature. Davenport especially has a large mid excellent cullectiou of books and magazines, which, with its very efficient clerical service and the ease with which books may be consulted mid drawn for home use, affords very superior 21d 'nntages for study and research work. To an these different lihraries our students have free access, mid they are made to feel at home by the courtesies of the attendants as well as by the 'ziluable help afforded them in the way of looking up references in books and magazines. Then, too, there is a high degree of musical culture in this community. Many musical organizations are maintained, which not only do splendid work themselves, but also bring here annually the foremost musical artists in the world. Recently, the TriwCity Symphony Orchestra, made up of local talent, has heen organized, which has given a number of high-gmde cnneerts and is proving itself to he in a most vigorous eunditinn. Many private individuals who in a quiet way are professional musicians, have their studios for instructiuu in voice, vinlin. piano, band instruments, etc. Augustzum Conservatory of Music is the center of these various musical activities, and in itself contributes no small part of the aggregate musical life of the community. Augustuilzl, with its magnificent buildings. its beautiful campus, its hirge financial interests, the progressive spirit of its management and of its student hndy, its reputation as a high-cluss educational institution, the intellectual, moral and religious forces which it fosters and sets into operation, while receiv- ing much fmm its immediate environment, is in itseif a power of the first mag- nitude tn give character, standing and influence to the community of which it is an integral part, and to which it cheerfully pledges its loyalty and coiuperatiun in everything that makes for the common welfare.

In the face of the grim reality that the entire Christian world is in a vast turmoil. and has turned from the happy pursuits of peace and geod-will to those of hatred and bloody warfare. ruinutiun and destruction. let us not forget that what the world needs most is not guns and ammunition but Hm Gospel of Puma Lars and GeotLWiH. Even in time of a crisis such as we aw: in at the present time. we need to set. forth more than ever the message of love :15 expounded in the Word of God, as taught in all its purity in the ductrines of our Church. With such thoughts in mind, we are reminded of the fact that our fatherst the pioneers of em church. realized this vital need, and with a vision for the future. they founded our common institutions of learning. Since their duvxu the value of our Christian schuols has been clearly demonstrated. It is. however. around our seminary that our common interest centers. It is for it that we labor and sacriiice, because from it are to come the future leaders of our church. It is here that the young men, who enter, are to receive the stamp of Luthcmnism, which they are to impress upon the peopie. When this great fact fully dawns upon us, we will realize the necessity of making our seminary a first-class seminary, comparable to the best in the land. and the training there received ideal and thorough in all respects. This year we are reminded of the great principles of the Reformation. of what the Lutheran Church is and for what she stands, and we are struck with the opportunity of setting forth these great principles. We need not be ashamed. for we have nothing to be ashamed nfi iVe have a sacred trust, a great treasure to impart to this nation in the pure and giorious doctrines of the Reformation. When one has caught a vision of the needs, then the call comes clear and definite to our young men, wilting, honestt serious and spiritually-minded, who shall be men of God, to serve in the Minsteris cause. When we have such a message, pure and undefiied, let us not put our light under a bushel, but let it shine forth in all its brilliance, fully eenscious of our heritage, of our great power, realizing that we must play an important part in the days to come.

Q. l. w -RZzeW-gxf The Class of 1919 HLTHOUGH we are now called Sophomores, we shall not always be known i as such. We shall in turn become Juniors, Seniors, and eventually Alumni. But that name. which will ever remain the same, which will ever be associated with our past. present and future, to distinguish us from all others. and for which we alone are responsible, is The Class of 1919, Looking hack over our past, we recall many incidents Which amuse, and others which cause us serious meditation. As Freshmen, how easy it was for us to recognize kindred spirits! The eagerness fll'ld spirit of good-fellowship with , which we attended our first class meeting has continued uncliminished up to the present. From the moment that we organized, we considered ourselves an in- tegral part of Augustana College, whose good reputation it was part of Our duty to maintain. 0n the other hand, we were not lacking in the lighter character istics. Known as a live and wideawake class we passed our freshman year safely and entered joyously upon our Sophomore year. We are now almost at the 'close of that temporary period so frequently re; ferred to as ttSoph. Vanity. Notwithstanding the unjust epithets applied to the Suphomores, we have thorou ghly enjoyed every minute of this year's activi- ties and pursuits. One event in particular we consider of more vital impor- tance and intrinsic significance than any other. It stands out in conspicuous F relief from the other occurrences nf the year. We refer to the erection of the new gymnasium, whose presence not only contributes beauty to our campus and affords us the proper athletic facilities, but inspires us with happy hopes and ambitions for further architectural improvements at Augustana. Such sentiments cause us to peer into the future and contemplate our relation to Augustana in the two years remaining to us here, and then the many years when we shall have become Alumni. Tu subvert our own inclinations to the best interests of the whole institution is one of our chief endeavurs. In this we will ever be aided by our esteemed faculty members. With their assistance and through our own efforts, we, the members of the Class of 1919, hope to become men and women who will reflect honor upon Augustana College, and who will be worthy of representing her in the expression of her highest moral standards, and who will he ever disposed to help develop and build up her resources.

Augustmm, in order that they might form :1 most illustrious body and be :1 beacon light in whose radiance all other classes uiaiy husk, and have a little rellected glory. Even the faculty extended to us u rnyul welcome on our arrival. We are not us other Freshics, timid and afraid. Our entrance we may liken l to Caesar's triumphant march. Our measured tread had just resounded in the corridors when the Sophomores challenged our superiority. A furious eneoun- l ler ensued. resulting in :1 truce, and we were acknowledged great. At our First class meeting. each member was so remarkably endowed with executive :lllllltyt that it was with great difficulty that even it tentative choice of oEieers was made. Class colors. silver gray and maroon, were chosen. Later. in November, under the guardianship of Doctor Foss, EL banquet was held in the Hotel Black Hawk. Where we elected the following officers: Edd Swede berg, president; Robert Olmsted, vice-president; Dorothy Peterson, secretary; Elizabeth Olmsted, treasurer. ' i In the football arena all the upper classes bowed to the superior ability of ' those representing the Class of 1920, and the honor of the class championship was accordingly vested in us. We Freshmen celebrated nur marked victory by :1. hwienie-roasf' hack of Zion Hill. A snake dance followed, being another spectacular display of our prowess. It must also be mentioned that one of our stalwart members gave support to the first team in their victoriest This Freshie's brother, the Senior perpendicular 0n the first team, with a. reach ex- tending from the basket above to the floor beneath, acquired this phenomenal ability through practice on his brother, a Freshman. Practice makes perfect is an old adage; hence, the laurels of the champion of the llLittle Nineteen must be shared with the Freshman. Due to the ability of our social committee, our first party was a brilliant suc- cess. Eluding the watchful eyes of our enemies, the Sophomores, we gathered fifty strong on Campbellls Island at a cottage belonging to one of our members, where we held 2L great poquow around a huge bonfire on the beach. Two other delightful parties at Center Station were participated in by the Freshies. Music by a quartette, and a burlesque on Mark Anthony and Cleopatra featured these occasions. The Class of 1920 not only excels in sneial attains, but also in the field of litera- l ture. The St. Olaf debuting team, composed mainly of Freshmen, has reHecterI t l l H honor and credit upon this college. The Adelphic and Phreno literary societies are greatly indebted to this live-wirc class. In the former society, one of our members has won fame by being elected president, and another by winning an essay cnntegt. We must add that other shining lights of our class have starred, especially in deelamatiun. Our fame has also spread to the Atlantic coast, two of our clussmen assisting the renowned Wennerberg Chorus on its tour. As with all the truly great, modesty is that attribute which restrains us from relating further the achievements of this remarkable class. There never can, nnr never will be, another Class of 1990!

Nor, lastly, does it undervalue the more practical advantage offered by 0111' Commercial Department. While thus diseluiming preeminence in any respect outside of its mm peculiar sphere, the Academy does hiy chiim to one mark of distinction. nmneiy, that of loyal and efficient service rendered all the other departments during its long and honorable history. Its position in this respect is unique. The Rockety-I 0f 191Q fucetiously u calls the Academy uthe mustard seed nf the coilege. This term as applied to the Academy may well be extended to include all departments at Aligustuna. Fm- in a certain sense it is the oldest department of our institution from which all the others have sprung. But this is not all. During the fifty-sevcn years of its career, it has furnished the preliminary training to by far the greatest number of our Seminary graduates. During this same time, the greater per- centage of our College students and graduates has been recruited from our Academy. In like manner, a330, it has been the privilege of 0111' Academy to . serve the other departments of nut Alma Mater in the training of hundreds of : young men and women for the various walks of life. In its relation, therefore, to other departments, the dominant keynote of its activity has ever been service. It has, however, not escaped the notice at those interested in the welfare of Augustana that since the general advent of the modem high school, the num- erical strength of our Academy has been decreasing. This circumstance has been viewed by some With equanimity, by nthers with some degree of anxiety, neither of which attitudes is correct. 0n the one hand. it can not be a matter of calm indifference to the true friendsofAugustuna that a department whose career has been one of longvcontinued and honorable service, should cease to exist for want of support. 0n the other hand, anxiety in this respect is needless, for only I when its day of usefulness is at an and Will the friends of our Academy assemble for its obsequics and lovingly inscribe on its tomb, Requiescat in pace! But that time is not yet. Many years of useful service are still in store for the Academy. Throughout the 19,00 congregations of our Synod, there arc, and will for years to come, continue to be hundreds of gifted young men and women whom circumstances of birth, environment and vocational pursuits have deprived of the educational advantages of our public schools, who, with a little encouragement on the part of friends and pastors. and a little active canvassing : on the part of the powers that be at Augustann. could be induced to take up work in our Academy, and could he started upon careers of greater usefulness in life. To all such, Augustana's Academy Hings wide its doors and opens its heart with cordial and loving welcome! A. W.

PAGE 100 Third Class PAGE 101 Em Second Class PAGE 102 W; First Class W I J PAGE 10 L Kg ---m The Essence of Music HE study 0? music has become :1 vital necessity in the general scheme of education throughout the world. It is nut considered merely as an accomplishment, but as 21 patent factor in the building of character. The person having finished his college education without H. certain degree of musical knowledge is rare. Usually one is able t0 at least play a hymn 011 the piano. This fact shows very distinctly the inward desire fur music and its place in life, It is the finest and most heavenly medium of expressing the innermost feeiings of man, and although it is the youngest of the arts to be developed, it is pmlr ably as old an art :15: any. It is unnecessary to dwell upon its place in the world, as its development is a more vital issue. There is probably no place as ideal for the student to develop his innate musical gifts as the Conservatory. There the best ideas available are C0117 densed and given in a clear and lucid manner. and his imagination and concep- tions are stimulated ta :1 high degree. He has the Opportunity not only to grow in one particular branch of study, but in every angle of musicui process, He associates with pianists, violinists, theorists. etc, and in this atmosphere becomes more inspired and interested. Music on paper bears little significance to the people at large. It hecmnes expressive only when interpreted by an artist There was a time when musi- cians improvised their productions and singers improvised their own accom- paniments. However, since that day, we have learned to think that a Beeth- oven m a Brahms has earned his title to fame to have conceived and set 011 paper his creations; thus leaving an equally big tt'lSk for the performer to absorb and interpret. An artist must,then, interpret according to his own conceptions. It matters little where and huw he forms thenL but his message determines his position among interpreters. If he has sumething to say, mechanical results obtained with the use of a metronome would not appeal to his artistic sense, and uhviousiy he wuuhl be a poor student for the pedantic instructor. Most students go astray during that period of development, since they become so ubsorbed with the technical dichulties, that they fail to reveal the true essence of music. Many instructors get only far enough to realize the tremendous problems involved in the acquisition uf technical pmficiency. Naturally. through this constant application and the importance attached to technical problems, the student becomes more concerned with the details than with the effect. He hecnmes desirous of performing dazzling and spectacular stuntsii instead of singing a melody with real Inusitzal feeling. That true responsive- ness tn the beautiful, and the rare art of revealing it is lost, and one hears only mechanical effects terminating in superficial display. Let us assume a natural attitude towards music and have more soul-revealing performances. Let us give what is within us and not be hampered with external conditions. The ulanguage of the enmtiuns will lose its real significance unless greater stress is laid llpun expression, Throw aside conventional and traditional methods of technic and be concerned with true expression. Art truly interpreted touches the heart, and only then does it receive its proper recognition. ARVID SAMUELSON. 7QLZ7; H MkLngH Professor of Piulm, Organ and Theory.

A. Frey in charge of the work It was not until twelve years later, however, in ; October, 1888. that :1 commercial department was organized with Prof. C. W. 4 Penn as principal. Two years Inter, in 1890, Prof. J. E. Gustns became prin- 11 cipal, and 21 department of Phonography was added with Prof. P. G. Sjohlom I l in charge of the shorthand work. The department was then known as Augus- i I , tana Business College and School of Phonogmphy. It was about this time f that the first class in the new department was graduated. 3 Since that time the lfigrowth has been steady, and at the present time the ii graduates number over one thousand who are scattered throughout tlle'length ll and breadth at this great country, filling positions of trust and responsibility 1 in office and sclloolroom, on the farm and in the home, in the professiunsi . ; medicine, law and the ininistryeand wherever they may be, we knew they are . ' loyal daughters and sons of Augustana and are 21 credit to their Alma Mater. I The Cnmmercial Department has always taken :1 very active part in all the l college activities and has done its share to further the interests of the institu- t tinn. This year has been no exception to the rule; we point with pride to the i fact that four of the Little Nineteen Basketball Champions are graduates of i this department. ! For any commercial school to do good wurl-z, it must have a high ideal ever I before it. Today, etliciency is the keynote to success in every line of endeavor, l fl and so efficiency must he the standard by which we are to be judged when com- l pcting in the great world of trade and commercial activity. True efficiency means careful trainingr in the things which one has to do in one's chosen iield of l lulmr.

Organizations 611E story of the organizations at Augustunu is largely the story of the saLurlcnt activities. 011 the one hand, it is the story of great things accomplished, but, on the other hand, it is the story of blighted hopes and ambitions of wellimcuning students. It is at the same time a record of the development of students and helping them to find themselves, and likewise the record of H. misplaced ego and the attendant consequence of the shattering of air castles built during high school days. If the college student is bigger than the hookworm mid the grind, and yields to the impulse to do something, then the story of his ability and growth will he mirrored in the work of the organizatinns to which he has belonged. formed or managed. TIIE UNDERLYING PRINCIPLE An organization means crystallized sentiment. Several stuilents are agreed that something must he done along one line or another, and this means a yielding to the impulse that has been with them from childhood;icilx do something. They like to do anything that they cam do fairly well, and they like 1.0 do it be- cause they can do it well. They are merely seeking xetflempressimlfar their powers amt abiiitics. It so happens that almost every student has some greatest interest or ruling passion. He may have a high-schuol oration seething in his system; the co-ed may have read Curfew Must Not Ring Tonight to the house-breaking ap- plause of relatives and neighbors; the intoxication nf an athletic victory still lingers irritatingly; the Hmost popular girl fa.ntasy may he ever present to cast a halo of delight over the possible future of the girl of many colors and dreamst hut in any case, the student cannot rest in peace until that which is pent up within him has had a chance to pay its last full measure in selficxpressiun. The result is sometimes comic, not to say tragic and pathetic: yet even the most kind would not deny such students an opportunity to free themselves of their irritating illusions. Contrast that type of student with the one who comes unannounced to college and quietly takes up his tasks. He may have had :1 vision or dream that inf Spll'Ed him with zeal for missionary work, social reform! temperance. scientific research, public speaking, a chance to serve his church or state. He, too, is seeking sclf-expression. and if he has an ordinary measure of ability along with his sincerity. you will soon find him also in the work of the various organizations. Watch him and you will find that if the college does IIOt have a 115mm SUCiGtDN he will organize one; you will iind him on the executive committee of the tem- perance league, the chairman of the program committee in the literary Society; the students will elect him on the board of athletics; he enters into the uratoricul contests and even gets a place on the debuting team; you may also see him lead- ing the student pruyer-meetings. He becomes :1 good college booster, for his school gives him a chance to express himself and grow. He has a chance to test himself to sort of find his proper sphere of activity. - 797 7 PAGE 127 hi--. . . VALUE TO THE STUDENT This phase of the organization work would he a fascinating story in itself. Even :13 the demands. of the organizations are many and varied. 50 are the ele- ments of Value to the student. Not only are his taicnts revealed and discovA ered, but they ure developed. His organizations elect him to a responsible office, or he is intrusted in other ways with a heavy responsibility, and this shows his capacity and earnestness. The way he dues this work will he the standard by which he is judged for future work and honor. 0110 of the specific elements of vzliue i5 sacrifice The work of any organiza- tion cannot be done without the willingI sacrifice of time and energy that might have heenispent in recreation, or at least along the line of least resistance. The member of u cnllegc team, an officer of an organization, a committee man, and a general executive must yield of his time unstintingly in order to do things. He must sacrifice in order to bring his work to a successful finish. Another element is teamwork. Sometimes this shows itself as tact. It means a sympathetic regard for the wishes and ideas of others in the organizw tinn. a willingness tu work with them toward a single goalt It means adaptation of your ideas and desires to meet the occasion befure you, even though it should mean that you will have to lay aside your own eccentricitics and your desire for personal glory. The student body as a whole will not tolerate a person who is always seeking grandstand play, A student must learn to wurk for the interest of the team and the final glnry and honor of the college. A third necessary quality of value is punch. rlfhere are many who come to college and aspire for student honors, but who lack the strength and ambition to work hard in order to earn them. Many have plans, but it takes motive power and continuous eitort to translate them into action. Organization responsibilities develop punch and sticketo-itviveness. thhere is no peace like victory, some one has said. and this remark will apply to the student who per- severes to the end of his task and can have the consolation of having done his work to the utmost of his ability and has succeeded. The students who have dune things are those who worked with the idea of getting things done at the appointed time and were ready to make any sacrifice to accomplish their aim. What a pleasing picture it would make if we could recount in detail the extra- ordinary growth of the many at our students who have developed their talents through our organizations! Look out over our Synod and you will see them now 215 successful men in many lines of endeavor. But, on the nther hand, look at the things that these same organizations have clone for our Alum. Mater. A double purpose has been accomplished, the student has been revealed and his powers trained in action, and hi Augustana has come honor and glury. L. E.

This nssociatinn promotes two of the most important student enterprises 0f the schoole-first, the Augustanu Observer, and, second. the HAugustaml Lyceum Course. The uAugustmm Observer has long heen the official monthly urgau of the student body. It has an enviable record as a college paper. and is cnthusmsti- HIILV received each month by a large circle of subscribers. Marked advance- ment has been made by the Augustunu Observer every year. It is thoroughly representative, and a genuine spirit of fairness and open-mimiedness hus per- meated every etlitinni Much credit for the . ieeessfui publication of this paper is due, hath to generous suhscrihers :lnd liherai advertiserst The KC-Xugustana. Lyceum Course has grown in favor each year, both Hmong the student body and :1 large circle of staunch Lyceum supporters of thc Trie Cities. The Lyceum Course fills an important need in the life of each student at the institutiuni Its fundamental purpose is educational. The Lyceum Association has the firm conviction that :1 general education consists of some- thing more than the pursuance of a prescribed course. There are many things that the student must receive outside of bucks. Through such a conviction, :1 course of the best lyceum talent available is hooked each year. Only lecturers, musicians, renders, interpreters and enter- tainers who have firmly established their success are considered for this course. They must he people of firm character; people who can leave an audience better than they find it. The Augustana Lyceum Course is in nu X'Hy a financial enterprise. but it has always been self-supporting. That the progressive ideals of the Association have been appreciated. is manifested by the success of the Course and the testimonies of a large circle of well-pleased patrons. This year's course has been successful from every standpoint. Every seat in the Augustanu chapel was sold on the advance sale and scores at persons had to be turned away because of the limited seating capacity. Ten numbers appeared on the course They were: Myrna Sharlow and Compam-z Vg P0011 Chew. John Temple Graves. James Watt Raine, The Weber Male Quartet Adrian M. Newens, William A, Colledge, Frank Dixon, Judge Ben B. Lindsey and Lieu- tenant Donald H. McGibney. The prospects for next yearis course are exceptinnaily bright. The superior advantages of the large new Augustana Auditorium offer unlimited opportllnL ties for the Lyceum. Dr. S, Parkes Cndman. Dr. Edward A. Steiner. Marie Mayer, Jeannette Rankin. Senator WY. S. Kenyon. Elsie Baker, Gay Zenoiu McLar-en and the Schumann Quintet have already been selected, and it is prob- ublc that the W'ennerherg Miaie Chorus. the College Orchestra und seferal other Augustnna organizations will he added. This course will be the biggest and most expensive ever conducted by the Association. L K 797 7 PAGE 131 M W j ' 'WW Lyceum Course A 1916-1917 PAGE 133 T.

These men tire to he sought and found among the ranks of the college men of today. The college is the wurkslmp towards which the world luoks for her inasa ter men. College life of the right kind has a brundening and deepening influence upon the minds and hearts of those who make up its student body. The varied and numerous college activities leave their indelible stamp upon the life and character of every individual who comes in contact with tliei:1,and who does not, like a recluse, segregate and bury himself completer between the covers of his books. True culture is found not alone in hooks. True education is more than thisiit consists also in the fostering of true sympathy and love for our fellow men, which elements necessarily enter into the building up of true and noble character. Every college organization puts its impress upon the student and they offer an opportunity for development and erlii'ieation in music, art and i literature, Literary organizations, therefore, play ml important part in the life of a college. They have an important mission to fulfill. They have in a special sense a broadening and enlightening influence upon the seekers of truth. the col- legc men and women It is true of literature, good or bad, perhaps more so than of anything else that it leaves its impression, eunohling 0r degrading, upon those persons who indulge in it. Good literature has the tendency to mouse the good and noble qualities of ones life. but not only to arouse, but also to stimuiate and encourage them. The Swedish literary societies were organized with this thought in mind, and they have ever since been awake to this fact. In this they have far outstripped the English literary societies at our school. Their purpose is to get in touch with the great, the good, the beautiful, the eniiohiiug and uplifting tendencies of the literature of the master writers of Sweden. uSvenskn Vitterhet Stillskapetf H010v Rudbeck, uTegnel'f' and the ttldunn have far their aim the study of the Swedish literature and culture, and to foster among its members an active interest in it. These societies. under the capable leadership of Prof. NIaui-itzson, head of the Swedish Department. accomplish an important work at AugiistmuL. They arouse and maintain interest in the Swedish literature among our student body. They co-uper-ute with each other and give an annual Swedish festival held on 01' about the fifth of November. Gustavus Adolphus Day. They have come tn he an indispensable element at our college life and activities. GEORGE ENGDAHL. M PAGE 146 i Swedish Society Of Belles Lettres ERNEST SAKIHSUN.

This national :lsseciutinn Was in? ecii'lmmted in 15101. Its missiun is to enlist college men and women in the fight against the legalized iiqunr traffic in th country. That the association has served this purpose is evidenced by the fact that it today has local leagues in two hundred and sixtv ix r-olleges and universities. and a total membership of 8,800 students. 'Iihl unparalleled growth has been due tn the manly at- ivities within the aisnciatinn. Chief among these have been the pro- hihitinn oruturiI-ai conic. , which take place ycuriyt With these contests. the 'snciutiun housts 0f the HM ' emuprehensixe oraturicai system in the entire enunlig. and the most uttm ,tive tn the ambitious orator. In it :1 contestant may win four ilOIlul'HiiUL'tli. state, interstate and national. When the orator attains t0 the distinctinn of the National Honor, he has traveled a rough and hard mad. There are ahmlt one thousand who start the rate each year. and only one can gain the highest goal the National Honor. Besides the oratnrioui contest, the ussneiatiun encourages journalistic contests. 6111': .tugustunn Prnhihitiun League is 21 memher 0f the Intercollegiate But its greatest nvhievement is perhaps the introductionof uncredited study courses of the liquor problem in many colleges and tlnlvermties. These courses devote themselves to the snelulngirul and cemmmlc aspect of the liquor traffic mainly. The Augustann iocul league was organized in 1911. and inside of three years it emmted over one. hundred members; 1914- provcd to he its banner year, Under the able leadership of L, E. Jones. a group of its most active memhcrs took a sur- vey 0f the saloons at Rock Island especially with reference to location and or- ganimltion, They also investigated the court rer-nrds at Rock Isizlnd for the preceding twenty years. The findings of this work were published in pamphlets which gained wide distribution. The same year. the reporters won the journal- istic contest by running twenty feet of prohibition material in the newspapc . At the present time. the league has one hundred and some memhers. Its principal activity this year has been to hold pruhihitiun meetings at 'arious c-hm-ehes in this VI inity. Thanks to the :lhumlanee of music. orchestral and choral. which is always at nur dispt 1 here at Augustnna. it has been an easy matter to arrange fm- these meetim . Harry Kalquist deserves praise for the. willingness he has ever shown in supplying music for these programs. The, real object of the prnhihitinn league is to enlist young men and woman in the battle against the saloon. The big cry in 2111 reform work is for eHiciezit leaders tn blaze the ray t0 the solution. And surely leaders. strong and un- thiunteri. are needed in the prohibition movement. and the proper place to enlist these leaders is in the various colleges. Saw the seed of reform in the hearts uf men and women while they attend enlice . and when they leave to take up work in different iocaiities, they will disseminate those seeds there. To make this training more substantial. Augustuna College. at the request of the league. has placed in its Curriculum tlll accredited course in the study of the liquor problem; This enurse. under the able direction of Dr. Bartholomew. is an exceedingly in- teresting: eunrsc tn the student who ioves individuni research.

Tu I I render pecuniary aid to the foreign mission work of the Synod. It was organ- ized in 1886 and incorporated in 1895, SEncc then it has grown rapidly and I steadily until it now has a membership of 515, consisting of students. prufessurs, ' pastors and members of our congregations. I - In order to amuse and maintain interest in missions at the institution, the i i society conducts mission study classes and mission festivals. The general class 1 I meets at four uiclock every Sunday afternoon of the school year in the Histonr , x. Room. Missionary addresses and programs are rendered by the students and ; , professors, During the fall term the following topics were presented by stu- I I dents who have at some time 01' other labored on mission fields: Niormonism; Our Synndical Home Missions; Canada h'Iissions; City l'Iissinns; The Need in ' the Orient: Mission Work Among the Bhils in India. and The Women of India. 1 I During the spring term, the following topics were presented: A Bazaar in India; Comparision of Brahmanism and Buddhism; NIexico; Reports from the Lutheran Student Missionary Conference held at JMaywood, 111., in February. 19l7; South America; the Hasselquist School in China; besides programs fur- nished by the Volunteer Band and the Senior Class of the Seminary, i For the past few years, smaller mission study groups have been organized '3' under student leadership. Soon after the beginning of each term a. mission Iii rally is held in order to organize these groups. During the fall term. five classes 1, I . were held in the foiiowing subjects: Islam; Mormonism; Missionary Heroes of III the Lutheran Church; Lutheran Heme Missions, and Latin America. During II I I I the spring term, the following courses were offered: Islam; Religions of the Missiun Fields; The Dark Continent of Africa; Latin America, and Lutheran ,; Home NIissions. The courses continue through eight weeks, one hour per week. i An average of fifty students have been enrolled in these classes. G. A, Bjiirk, ' . A. P. Lawrence, Ralph Hult, E. J. IIeurlin and Herbert Anderson have served d as class leaders. It has been decided to offer mission study courses next. year also. I E In addition, we have :1 Volunteer Band which meets once a week throughout II ' the school year. The twelve members of this band intend to become fm-eign ,l I missionaries if God permits. The leader nf the band is E, J. Heurlin 0f the li; Middle Class of the Seminary. It is affiliated with the Student Volunteer I Movement. , J1 I Three mission festivals have been held during the schuoi year under the -i auspices of the society. On Sunday evening, November Q6, 1916, NH. G. A, ; Bj6rk, formerly a missionary among the Bhils in India, but now a student in our i Seminary. related his experiences in India and told of the great need there, On January 921, 1917, Rev. Alfred E. Trued, missionary from Juchow, Honan, China, presented the good work of our China missions. The addresses of these ; two missionaries were the must interesting and wonderful ever delivered at the institution. On March 25, 1917, Rev. A. Nurrbom of Des Moines, Iowa, spoke '1 0n the subject, gNew Leaders and New Fields. During the Commencement 1; I'i' week the society has charge of one of the sessions. This year the Commence- h' ,l ment NIission Festival is held mi Sunday afternoon, May 274 797 7 1 e I, PAGE 1-15 Last year, over two thuusemd dollars were gathered. The sum of sixteen hundred tlullurs was donated to foreign missions divided among the various fields as folluws: India, $600; China, $600, and Porto Rico, $400. The society will donate the same umnunt this year; Money is raised in four ways: 1. Membership fees. The annual membership fee is one dollar. Every one pay- ing ten dollars becomes a life member. Any member of the Augustana Synod is eligible to membership Any one desiring to become a member and join him- self to u very good cause and organization, should remit a dollar or ten dnllurs t0 the treasurer, Dr. C. A. Blmngren, 825 'llhirty-fifth street, Rock Island, Ill. 2. Gifts, The largest gift received during the past year was $193.74 from the estate of B'Iiss Caroline tVilhclInina Johnson, Beloit. W'is. .1 Collections. The pastors and congregations of the Illinois and Iowa Conferences invite the society tu send student representatives an the Sunday 011 which the conference is in annual session. These student representatives conduct the services of the day and receive collections for the foreign missinn fund of the society. The students donate their services without compensation. the society, of course, paying the railroad fares. 4-. Soliciting. During the summer vacation, the society sends out two students to travel and solicit funds for foreign missions. The society congratulates itself upon having secured the services of Missionary G. A. Bjiirk, who will this summer solicit in the states of Iowa. Nebraska and Kansas. His missionary lectures are remarkable and out of the ordinary. We do not hesitate to recommend him to our congregations. The seventh annual convention of the Lutheran Student Missionary Associa- tion of North America was held at the Chicago Lutheran Theological Seminary at Maywood, 111., February 15713, 1917. The Augustana society was repre- sented with ten student delegates and one professor. A good report of the pro- ceedings and the messages of this convention is given in the l'Iarch issue of the Augustana Observer. The society is at the present time especially interested in mission work in the African Sudan. Dr. H. K. W. Kumm, General Secretary of the American Council at the Sudan United Mission, and Mr. A. E. Gunderson. missionary from the Sudan, have presented the needs of this vast field. The Christian Church must stem the advance of Mohammedanism in the Sudan. Dr. S. M. Zwemer says that Hunless the Church awukcs to the peril of Islam. she may once more be defeated in Africa, The spread nf Islam in Africa is one of the most striking phenomena of the twentieth century. Rev. J. C Hartzell. former bishop in Africa, states that the Mohammedan advance in Africa represents the largest world missionary problem confronting the whole Church at the be- ginning 0f the twentieth century. John R. Mott writes that it is plmh to every observer that unless Christianity extends its ministry to the tribes throughout this part of Africa tSudanl, the ground will in a short time be'occti- pied by Mohammedanism. The Augustana Synod ought to do its share in this great and imperative task. The society has petitioned the Board of Maestons of the Synod to investigate and consider the advisability of taking up missmnary work in that country under the direction and support of the Syned: At the hast meeting of this board, a committee was appointed to conduct thls investigation. We are awaiting with interest the report of this committee, Dare we hope that the hoard and Synod will act favnrahly upon this matter this year?

ELIASON E. OLSON E. LEAF ' G. CARLSDN The Importance of Bible Study DUCX-XTION should consist in spiritunL mental and physical development. The neglect of any one of these three means a distinct loss in 0110's train- ing. Gymnastics and athletics provide physical improvement; the class- room. lectures and forensics furnish the necessary mental development: but how is the moral. the spiritual training: to be taken care 01'? This can he done only hy the study of that Bonk, the greatest of all hookst the Bible. Great as a hook of beautiful literature. great as a buck of history. great even from a scientific standpoint. the Bible stands preeelninently great as the book of eternal life having verily life in itself. This Book teaches how best to live on this earth 50 us to be of the greatest service to mankind. and it also teaches how to live here in order to spend a blessed eternity. tVithout spiritual development, our lives would be warped, one-sided. Self- eenterecl. The best way, them to obtain this spiritual training is by studying the Bible. Merely reading the Bible is prufitahla but it is not sufficient. T0 ohtain :1 true knowledge of its teachings. the Bible should he thornughha sys- tematically studied. The characters in the Bible. their temptations. their weaknesses. their victo- ries. will inspire in us a greater courage, greater wisdom, and give us more strength to stand firm against evil. Studying Godts dealings with His chosen people, how He led them step by step, and how He often permitted evil to he- fall them in order to bring them back to the true worship: seeing what infinite patience He had through it all. and how intimately He cared for them and watched over them through it all. will give us greater faith to believe that He is still guiding the affairs of men. that He still rules over the nations. and that our little wars and tumults are but incidents in His great plan for saving the world. Then. too. the beautiful poetry, the richness and fulness of the literature cannot but inspire us and lift us up nearer the Divine. 0r. again, the awful warnings and denunciations of the prophets against the terrible wickedness of their day must make us holder and more courageous in speaking out against the evils that threaten our own time. And when. surrounded by vice and injustice. these same pruphets were able to lnnk far into the future and see the glories and splendors to come. and so were true uptimists looking furwurd to a brighter day. We. too. catch the Rfaru vision, and look not merely at our own times, but away down the ages yet to come, and we catch the ubroad vision, so that the wlmlc Wide Wurld lies npen before us. And then. especially :1 real study of the daily life. the works. the teachings of that God-man, Jesus Christ, must produce a real love for Him in the heart. a love not only for Him, hut a love for all men because He loves them all. If His teachings are carefully studied, and earnestly thought about. they must produce 21 radical change in the life and habits of the Student. Finally. a knowledge of the works and teachings of the Apostles. ol' the many precious gems of truth there found will uften p'mve a source of comfort and strength in diHiculties which arise in each nneis life. But more than all these individual blessings, the study of the Bible gives life. for the Holy Spirit speaks through the Word and imparts true, everlasting iife by this means. Thus: in order to obtain spiritual development, in order that the student's education may he :1 complete education. the Bihle should he used as a textbook by every college student. ANNA CESANDER. PAGE 1:32 rrwfmc-W ---- CORATQDRY - E$ DEIATE g1 hm: 154 ForensicseOpportunities and Needs UGUSTANA'S history has been one of constant growth and progress for the purpose of meeting new demands and of proving faithful to greater Uppm'tunities. From une department of a few students she has grown into :1 truly mighty institution whose influence is measured not alone by mem- hers of faculty itnd student body, hut much more by other institutions, churches, schools, charitable institutions, mission fields, and forces of thought in the po- litical, scientific and educational worlds. In her steady progress, the vision of greater opportunities has continually grown and her practical, everyday work has consisted in her endeavors to face squarely these new problems. meet these new demands, and realize a greater attainment and achievement. Fifty-seven years have seen much doneethey have made clearer the things required to he done. Realization of some aims has also made evident where now greater stress must he laid. Primarily must that stress he laid on those things essential to the maintenance and growth of the inHuence already estab- lished. And among those essential factors necessary to our growth must he recognized the need of training our graduates in ahiiity to clearly and forcefully express themselves in those lines of work Augustana has aided them to enter upnn. In the stress and conflict of the larger life of the nation, Where ideas and ideals daily clash, in every sort of endeavor and work, such self-expression and consequent ability to inHuence is absolutely necessary. The training of her students in public speaking, especially when the peculiar function of Augustunu is considered. is clearly seen to be an important and essential part of Augus- tnnafs mission. Hitherto Augustana has not fulfilled this part of her duty and opportunity. Her poor results in debate and contest too fureefully attest to this fact. It might almost be said that her position here is nil, compared with the place she hoids among other institutions in athletics. Yet our view should not be limited to this aspect of the conditions existing. 0f more importance is the general training received by the whole student bady, and a consideration of this touches upon the general culture of that body in matters political, social. economic and religious. 0? more importance is the professional training,r received by that particular part of the student body whose future work depends for much of its success on ability of public expression. In all of these phases it must be con- fessed that Augustana has hitherto not achieved all that belongs to her mission But we believe Augustana has come to a realization of this need. The faculty and board have indicated a, readiness to more filiiy develop this part at the stu- dent's training. The students are coming to realize that :1 consideration of the great questions and problems of the day is something essential to their develop- ment. They must also realize that much of the training in public speaking should come through their own efforts in voluntary organizations. to which the faculty gives its encouragement, and the bnurd its support by supplementary courses. instructors, etc. The latter cannot come before the student body evinces a greater interest in forensic affairs and a greater desire for development of these. Fundamentally. these are the things which make a student body inteliigent, wideuwnke, and filled with :1 variety of worth-whiie interests. By each One in his place, this needt which has such a bearing on our hu-ger institutional life, must he met. in order that the inHuence ni' Augustana may assume, in relation to its potentialities, its greater place in community. church. and nation.

PAGE 175 - 7977 ART STUDENTS PAGE 176 w -W ' $collegeism COLLEGEISMimllegc life. To some this means hiiarity, to some it means eternal grind; and ever popular is the conception that life at college is one I grand. magnificent efl'ort tn deplete the paternal pocketbook. It is. 10 some extent. hut it is more. College life is democracy, gnod-fellou'ship, umbi- tiuus effort tempered by and interwoven with the pursuit of happiness. And this, you will agree, is etmsidered training for the battles of life in the great world outside. we can never forget the campus, the beautiful greensward, the buildings, some old and venerable, some new and majestic. What an atmosphere! The students going to and from classes, with their eager faces all uglow with the spirit of cmnmdeship-this is an inspiring sight. Leisurely the;y always move. but never aimlessly, except iriendiy couples in the good Old springtime. And the mealtime, with its never-failing appeal. There is such a fragrance, such a cheerful gaiety, a peculiar buzzing produced by both conversation and mastica- tion that exists only in college dining halls. This tendency toward optimism and cheerfulness in the life of the cnilege student does not mean neglect of edu- I cation, for a happy, contented state of mind renders us all more efEcient in what ever we endeavor to do. The college days have their delights. but they do not compare with the col- lege nights. sung the bard. How those glorious social affairs were appreciated! Except by exchequerer Papa! Take the fortunate young man who, upon arri- val, is admitted to some classy clique. What a thrill the first banquet gives him! There is music. flowers and a. fascinating damsel, demure and attentive. Them eyes, those food. this forks, these ever-hulging shirt-fmnt!50 does his mind move. But he finally grows accustomed to it, and 5mm is a hardened I social iion. He writes some prize essays every week, He toils not, neither does he spin. He is accomplished. Then there is the poor grindi'ta much maligned individual. Has he any diversions? All he needs is to be happy, and that is enough. Students even I find pleasure in argument. and time and time again we find our erstwhile grindai in the midst of some intellectual joust, receiving hut arguments with the equa- nimity and composure of a Sphinx, and interpolating a reply at clue intervals. College spirit is a. great thing. It brings the whole student hody together as one big fraternity. Nowhere does such true joy abound as at those mass- meetings of allithe carnivals, receptions and athletic contests. All work and 1m playl' is the motto of the college studentenot. Sport gives pleasure to those who participate and those Who look on. Who has ever seen such a display of enthusiasm, Vigor and pep as that which the college nfan indulges in The I trim-jerseyed eleveus and the spectacular nines mean much to the college student. He sees in them the results of training. of teamwork, and of cue operation. and of loyalty to a community of interests. This is all eeliege life. and the spirit that permeates the atmosphere of a school is a gauge of its depth and breadth. You have wondered at our title. $colleg8ism. You have surmised correctly. We preface our mime for college life With the mark of the almighty dollari There is something more precious than time that we spend at cnllege. Whether we subsist 0n the results of our summer's labors. or live on the charity of the tioltl man. it is all the same. The element of expense is vital in college life. No true chronicle of the life of any class of people is complete without mention of their financial ratingi Alas! The life of a college student is mostly dllnsf' And so we submit to you the following pages, without apology. iVe have great times at cnllege. hut itiSelife.

CONRAD, COACH PAGE 195 7977 MW The Basketball Season HE Augustuna basketball team. by displaying an almost. perfect game of basketball. won the championship honors of the Illinois Intercollegiate Athletic Association, which is composed of all the lending colleges of this Shntc. Hencel Augustaml Can claim to he the champion of the colleges of I iimis. Since 1911 we have sent 11. team to the state tournament each year, and with the exception of receiving fourth place in 191+. we have not gathered any of the coveted honors until this year, when the tournament, held 011 the first days of March at Decatur, was won by our team, defeating all its oppmients by over- whelming scores. The basketball schedule was an excellent one, each time being of the best caliber in the state, and a victory only gained after a hard fight and severe training. The season naturally divides itself into two divisions the season games and the tournament games. The first game of the season was played with Chicago University at the dedi- cation of the new gymnasium. The first hulfcndet126e8, but in the second half the Augie men came back strong. holding the Chicago playcre clown to the score of 11 to 9. Augustana then defeated Monmouth 40-23, and a week later William and Vashti met the same fate to the tune 0f 2'? to 21, Bradley defeated our boys in a miserably won game, 39 to 24, which caused the Augie men to come back at Illinois, snowing them under 44 to 19. Millikan defeated us 17 to 15, but two of our men were ill, while the next evening Wesleyan was outplayed 4-0 to 38. Wesleyan again engaged us, but the final score was 524 to 25 in Aiiglm tana's favort William and Vushti received further punishment. losing 29 to 15 and Illinois was similarly engaged 44 to 39. The last game of the season was with Bradley. This time we held the salient, and their attacks were nullified 24 tn 11. The tournament, was a grand success for the Augustana men. They won the championship hunors by defeating all comers. Augustana needed to play only four games. They won each one with skill and ease, caused by the perfect team- work of the five men. They used speed, accuracy, endurance and skill. with the result that only Hfty-two points were made against them, making an average of thirteen points a. game, while together Augustana netted ninety-thrcc. The hnaI contest of the tournament was between Augustana and Eureka, all the other teams in the state having been eliminated. It was a. superb exhibition of skill against skill, brawn against brawn. determination against determination, hut Augustana won the day 23 to 17. AUGUSTANA, THE CHAMPIONS OF 1917, was the news flashed on the wires to the different parts of the state. In the All-State Team, Arthur Swedherg was placed as All-Stm' center, and ttCub Lundberg as :Lll-Star forward. In the second major team, Holmgren was placed as guard. Augustuim played a clean game, but they played-henee the laurels. PAUL ANDREEN. 797 7 J PAGE 196 Basketball CLARENCE SAMUELEOM HIS.

Baseball Season, 1917 HE prospects for 21 winning baseball team this year are brighter than they have linen for many seasons. Only two men of last year's team have left us. and their places, through an abundance of material, have been cnpnhly filled. There have been two or three men for nearly every positiont and the task of Coach Mullen to choose the right man has been :1 difficult one. All the men are seasuned and experienced hall-playcrs, and under the masterful tutelage of coach and captain, they have been organized into a wellehulanocd and well- working machine. Captain Johnson will again be found behind the bat. and his baseball prowess is generally known among the students. Not only is it his playing which makes him valuable. but his generalship is a striking characteristic. The pitching def partment has been bolstered by the addition of Jacobson and Molander. both good hurlers, although perhaps lacking a hit in experience Blomnherg will also be called upon to take his turn in the box. At first. we have Dempsey. a Rock Island High School boy, who is very competently fining that position. Lund- herg is working at second in fine style, and the ever-reliahle Larsen is :1 fixture at short His hitting is a valuable asset to the team. At third we have Taber, also a new man in baseball. and he is performing excellently at that bag. In the outfield are many and promising candidates. Kendall, JaCGbsanV Palmen Mo- lunder, Bengstnn and Knanishu are working there for the regular positions. The first game of the season revealed the fact that the team this year was made up of hitters. All the men are hitting hard and squarely, and are driving many runs over the rubber. And the fielding also is on a par with the hitting. All the men, both inflelders and outfielders, are putting up a fielding game second to none in the conference, and they do their work with a snap and pep Which is bnund t0 bring,r results. With the characteristic Augie tight, the baseball team promises to uphold the high standard of efficiency, so exceilently set by the champions of the Little Nineteen'l basketball tournament.

There were no slackers, nor any one who feared to measure his strength and agility with the best athletes of our conference. This can safely be a:li'irmed by the struggle which took place in the three meets, out of which two decisive victories were accredited the team. Reflecting on the results of the track team of former years, it can safely be asserted that the progress in track has been dull, and there no doubt has been a lack of interest. But it has now been proven What interest and enthusiasm will do, and what they will accomplish. There was gratitude showered upon the team for their splendid work, and the men fully deserved this gratitude of their fellow- students for the untiring energy with which they performed their work, and for the honor reaped thereby for the school, as well as for themselves Strictly speaking, track is pure athletics. It is a form of sport that thrives best by itself. It is not like the other branches of college athletics, where team- work has much to do in winning a game. In track, the individual plays the part for himself, and if he is not capable of holding his competitor at a distance, the result will always be a sure defeet. But the team did not lack courage, even if the enemy were pressing them hard. The team which has the more vigor and assurance has the advantage, for the opposing team is thereby rendered uneasy. Our team could be depended upon. and there never was any worry or distress. There was oniy a smile and a victorious look by each member whenever entering an event. All the members of the team were of the same calibre, and they ale ways looked for victory in honor of Augustana. As regards the team of 1917, the prospects have been splendid. There has been far more interest and enthusiasm shown than during the banner year of 1916. Not only has interest been shown by the athletes, but the manager had succeeded in scheduEing meets with five of the leading, college track teams of Illinois. In all respects, the season was an ticipated as a record breaker in track athletics. But when several of last yearls record breakers responded to the call to protect the liberty and freedom of our country, it was deemed necessary to cancel the track schedule in order that the athletes might devote their time and energy where duty called them. In view of this fact, all admiration is given to our loyal men. not only by Augustanaites, but even by all others who admire and respect the stars and stripes of Old Glory. JULIUS JOHNSON.

PAGE 21.7 JR iW Augie Needs Football UGUSTANA does not. as yet, have the privilege of playinginter-collegiute a football. but the hopes for the future are strong. Our schnol will again this year ask that the Synod grant the students permission! to play the.- college game Below are three of the many reasons why Augie wants football: First. It unifies Hie student body and dwefops loyalty to the Alma Mater. Prof. Geurge W. Ehler, Director of Physicai Education, University of Wis- consin. says: ltIt is the one spurt which most fully enters into the feelings of the students, alumni. and faculty of an institution, awakening the largest and most intense expression of student onnlty. Walter Camp. New Haven, Conn.. perhaps the foremost authority on foot- ball for the past twenty years in a recent communication to the Committee, says: It does develop college spirit and loyalty, and this eventually builds foundation for patriotism as well as teamwork. Conch McAndrew. of Southern State HID Normal School has this to say: ttIt welds and solidifies the various college activities, classes. etc., together in a. way nothing else can. Football to the college student is what theflay is 10 the nation. It must he borne in. mind that footbalt 1's Ike only athletic actiz-ity for the fall semester and thus acts as a cohesive force to bind the students-especially the new onesito their Alma Mater and thereby it prevents the student from be coming interested in activities outside of college life. It is :1 well-knuwn fact that many of our students become interested in the activities of the TrirCities in the fall, and it is wellenigh impossible to divert that energy back to the main current of college work later in the year. Then, too, football spreads the reputation of the college and this brings out renewed loyalty on the part of the former students and aiumni and brings addiA tional support to the Alma Mater. A loyal student body means a loyal Alumni. Second. It is beneficial to the student body as a whole. Professor Ehler says: uIts. chief value to the college is not in the physical result to the participant, but in the social results to the student body as a whole, together with the opportunities it gives when properly conducted and in har- mony with the high standard of sport, to set before the student body high ideas of true spurtsmanship under the most strenuous conditions.n It furnishes a necessary recreation and diversion for the student body during the fall term, when there is no other available recreation. ' A football player is concrete evidence before the whole student body of the great value of training and discipline and temperance in all things. A football player who dissipates will not be tolerated by tho students. Third. Our own colleges should afar the same opportunities for athletic sparta- and recreation as are afered at other colleges. It is a well-known fact that. football is the favorite college game, and many prospective students become attached to the game during their highischool course, and, therefore, frequently attend the college which 0H ers them to play or to witness the favorite gridiron sport. Each you? we cm: losing good students. 51w sons and daughters of loyal SwedishLutherun people, simply bccaure we do not have football. The colleges having football receive additional press notice and this attracts the attention of students and directs them towards the college receiving such advertisemeht. Therefore, it would seem the part of wisdom to give to our own Lutheran Augustana Synod colleges the same means of attracting sin- dents as are found at the other colleges. It is a. sorry fact. to note that. only a small percentage of our own young people, who attend college, enter our own colleges. Remember our slogan: Football in 1917? THE COMMITTEE. 7??

CV7 m, Ilpl, III Apologies to Subscribers gINCE time immemorigll, it has been a customary weakness of man to make excuses for sumething he has, or has not, done. Some of these have been unnecessary and caused only by man's modesty, while for others. excuses have been necessary and expected. For the latter reason, We feel called upon tri frame up some excuse for our nerve in talking up so much valuable space in such hard times as these. Now, we are not wholly to blame for the quality of the material that appears on these pages. Let it be understnod that all complaints should he handed in in writing to the editor of this dcpartment, who will, fortunately, be out of tuwn when they come in. It was due to the poor judgment of the class that this lmrden was placed on these youthful, inexperienced shoulder; Realizing our insignilicnnce and inability in this field of work, we have been fortunate in securing the assistance of some of the more talented members of this institution. It is to these that all thanks are due for whatever is worthy of approval. Before commenting on the staleness of any of these jokes, please bear in mind that there is nothing new under the sun, according to one well-known philos- ophcr. Adam himself realized the truthfulness of this statement after Eve came to share his life. However, we cannot conceive Eve as saying: ttCan the Stone Age stILH.

After wandering around awhile. we went to a place called the Columbini Harry says this is the place where all the students go to spend their evenings.

PAGE 235 J97 7 1W PAGE 236 In Conclusion N the productirm of the 1917 Rockety-I we have aimed to portray the different departments, the various organizatiuns, :md Augustana life as we have experienced it. When we commenced this work we had many happy dreams as to the mnke-up of the hook; in our bright hopes we intended to revolutionize the Su-called art of college annual publication with our novel and clever ideas. In this, however, we have failed. Many of our fond hopes have been shati tered; the supposedly clever ideas have been found impossible, and lack of time and means has often hindered us from changing our dreams into realities. But . this dues not mean that we have any apologies to otter. Even if we have erred and failed to realize our fondest hopes, nevertheless we have worked earnestly and diligently. Although this book says nothing of the joys and pleasures, worries and perplexities 0f the undertaking, yet in this small hound volume is condensed the labor of several months. We wish to acknowledge with gratitude the hearty support which we have been given, both by students and faculty members. We desire especially tn express our appreciation for the titerary articles by Prof. Hult. Dr. BartholoA mew, Prof. Kjellstrand, Prof. Bergendoi? and Mix Samuelson. Theo. Lenz, Earl Martinson. Anders Nelson and A. R. Meihmder have assisted us by cun- trihuting art work. To each and every one Who has aSSistcd us, a hearty thank you. The publication of this-buok would not have been possible hut for the support given us by our advertisers. As a staff. we appreciate this assistance and appeal to our fellow students to show their appreciation hy giving them their patronage. Boost ihcmih'zey ham 1100.?th 118. We offer this book, then, :15 :1 product of our efforts for the advancement of am Alma Mater. May the 1917 Rocketyi serve to refresh our spirit of loyalty and frequently remind us of our college days at dear old MAugie. THE STAFF.
