And so in accordance with scholastic tradir tions the class has issued this annual as a faint but sincere expression of gratefulness to that complex sum-total of human individuals, forces, principles and Hatmospherefwhich constitute the College. When the question arose as to whom this volume shou1d be dedicated, the answer was instant and unanimous. Bruthcrs in camp and battle-line, listen: During our acar demic careerwe have read something of the records of the past, as well of other countries as Of Our own. The lives of the truly great have been interpreted to us by those whose own souls vibrate in sympathy with the ideas and the ideals of the noble men who uttered them and cherished them. we have learned that the heroes of the world were men who did not simply live, but who devoted their livcsfaye sacrificed them in many a caseito the service of a noble cause. We have also learned that of ali things temporal, among civiLized men, there is nothing comparable to devotion to one,s Country. All this was in our hearts when our beloved country, much against its own inclination, became involved in the awful world wart now raging, and called upon its loyal sons for succor and support in its hour of peril, and when you, brothers of ours, responded to that call instantly and ungrudgingly. Brothers, We can not express to you in words how we honor you and how we love you for that noble response. We, the Class of 1913, are about to he graduated, and we shall receive a diploma ccrtifying that we have satisfactorily completed a certain prescribed course of study. Some of you had already received such a document before you donned the uniform of your country; some of you had not. But whether or no, you have already entered upon that larger field of useful- ness for which a diploma is ordinarily considered the evidence of adequate preparation. Your actual service since the date of your enlistment, as reported by your superior oHicers, proves not only the adequacy of your preparation but also your con- secration t0 the cause which you have espoused. And hence we not only honor you; we are proud of you. We feel keenly your absence. We should b: so very glad to have you With us on our Commencement Day7 the day which means so much to us. But, brothers, if you cannot be with us, we shall be with you, in spirit, not only on our Commencement Day, but continually. We shall be with you in your training camps; we shall be with you in your voyage over the perilous deep, and we shall pray to Him who is the Author of the elements to protect you from all evil; and we shall be With you in the turmoil of battle on the shell-torn fields of immortal France. Brothers of ours, sons of Augustana in camp and battle-line, we commit you into the hands of the God to whom we have raised our voices in unison in prayer and song during the days of our academic life at Augustana. Be strong, be faithful, be true to your country and to your God. Such is our wish as we ask you to accept this little tribute from your brothers and sisters of The Classiof 1918. a E Cleavage Garnuelwn -, gatl gnaam cum Stem Pagr w 81:1?ch 3th 3W6 thiact-zmt 017.1; iOIaon 301111 'E- $2150er Educ?

On the second of last April, Rock Island undertook to clean house more thor- oughly than ever before by voting out the saloons and putting up legal bars against the liquor traffic, presumably for good and all. This signal triumph over the forces of King Alcohol, John Barleychrn come mander-in-ehief, was the rcsuh of close cooperation on the part of three distinct forces for good in this community, the Federal authorities, Augustana College, and the decent women of Our city, There is great doubt whether any power short of the strong arm of Uncle Sam could have ousted the strongly intrenched liquor interests. There is no doubt whatever that the voters in the faculty, the student body and the college community to the last manwand WOman, voted the loyalist ticketHwith Me goeermnmr, againrt tlie gangeand materially swelled the anti saloon majority of one thousand seventy-cight. And on the face of the returns, the respectable women of our city, having found their bearings at the polls, at this their second opportunity to vote on the question, rolled up a majority that left Rock Island high and dry, in a special sense, despite the itwctii majority of the male vuters. The Synodys principal seat of learning, as such, has always enjoyed a good reputation, but politically the fair name of Rock Island has suffered in recent years. A number of years back, the neighboring city of Davenport, across the Mississ- ippi, was cleaned up morally, and two years ago our twin city, Molina, was made dry. XVhat was the resuit? The scum and riffraff of the two neighboring cities naturally drifted to Rock Island, as th's city remained on a lower moral plane, Far from attempting to shut out the inundation, the city government, on the other hand, permitted the establishment of a levee to catch this undes rable inhux. Nearly one hundred dramshops were doing big business, yet the bars were length- ened, the saloons were enlarged, new ones were built, and wholesale liquor hrms rented all the better locations available, so that the liquor traffic might be carried on up to the limit7 whoiesalc and retail. Like mushrooms out of rotten soil, dens 0f v'ce sprang up in large clusters These the city authorities tolerated for the privilege of making an occasional raid at suitable times and places, without, however, giving the ochders a jar suH'icient to dislodge them and cause them to go poaching in other purl'i'eur. ' Such has been the local situaticn for a number of years, Too many were deriving revenue from this trafhc to make any reform possible. The saloon question was placed on the ballet time and again, the liquor forces winning out in each instance, their majority two years ago exceeding two thousand, the liquor clement growing more insolent after each new victory. At this juncture conditions were such that the Augustana Synod was impelled by its responsibility for the moral welfare of the student body at our school to urge the citizens to make a united effort to abolish the saloon and its tributaries from the city, and to request the officials of the city to enforce existing laws per- taining to this traffic. This resolution, naturally, had not the slightest effect upon the city authorities. About one year ago the commissioners Were waited upon by a delegation of about one hundred and hfty citizens in good repute who lodged a strong protest against the social and political corruption in our city and filed :1 request for a clean Pagr 33 2-: -,,4 up. The protest fell on deaf ears, and the document filed was given a quiet burial in the mayurls filing cabinet. Now the Federal government took a hand in affairs. and we began 1.0 hope for better thing; The government simply could not tolerate a levee of drunkenness, vice and gambling in the immediate vicinity of the arsenal where there are now soldiers and government. workmen in greater numbers than ever before. The government rightly holds that the strength of our army lies to a very green extent in the temperance and morality of the men and consequently carries on its highly commendable work of throwing moral salegnards around the camps for the prof tection of.the individual soldiers. Here they found it dangerous pest-hule in close proximity to one of the great national military establishments. It had to go. The city authorities ennnived at conditionsx and the saloon men openly defied the law. Clearly the government had to step in. Around the arsenal island the federal oHicers established a half-mile dry zone and a live-mile boundary against prostitution. By this act, more than half the saloons 0f the city and a number of wholesale liquor houses were put out of business or made to move One victory was won, yet the enemy was only half defeated. The loyalty of the saloon element toward the federal government is of a special brand. Outside the zone and right on the very line liquor was sold and consumed in quantities ten times greater than before. Thereby the eHorts and purpose: of the govern- ment were very largely circumvented and annulled. The city commissioners per- mitted it. For purely patriotic ends they could doubtless have suspended all liquor licenses for the period of the war, in cooperation with the government. But in this cleaning up process, according to the federal cfheers, not one city omeial oHcred to assist. The purpase 0f the municipal authorities to circumvent and neutralize: the Federal regulations was so plain that Secretary Newton D. Baker was compelled l0 take a hand. In a letter he dropped a plain hint that in case the city govern- ment of Rock Island proved obstreperous and sought to oppose orders from XVashn ington, with the approval of the citizens, the next step would be to reduce the government activities at the Rock Island arsenal and t0 quarter the soldiers in more wholesome encampments. Mamr who had slept were awakened by this rude shock. The reputable element already had made arrangements for resubmitting the saloon question to the voters. The machine of the liquor forces was now out of gear, With the powerful aid of the government guns there was every chance of smashing the enemyls tanks , formerly held to be invincible. There were now purely commercial interests involved. The chamber of com- merec tried the loyal forces; so did many lllegt minute menll, who could not be appealed to through their consciences. Their pocketbook had to be touched be- fore they saw their patriotic duty clear. TlllS local election caused satisfaction in the widest circles. The iriends 0f temperance everywhere rejoiced at the capture at this stronghold of the liquor Interests. The authorities in Washington had reason to be satisfied, seeing that at least the majority of the voters of this city proved their loyalty in fact by sup- porting its fight ior social purity. Finally, we Swedish Lutherans, who now have young people by the thousands both in the military and the Spiritual training camps, note with the greatest satisfaction that nut soldier boys are being safe- guarded against immoral influences hostile to their welfare, as also that the stud- ents In this ehief institution of learning will be hedged about by a morally pure and whclcsomc environment. , F.

Slghing after happiness, hrooding over the felicity he has missed, are traits uni becoming t0 the soldier. Manhood, not cravcnness, is the reed of the hour. Men are required who are prompt in the discharge of duty, fearless of danger, patient under fatigue, without a symptom of selhsh flaccidity, giving no quarter to natural weakness, disregardful of present pain, fainting not under smarting rebuke, but only to win one thingethe production of character made strong by obedience to right and duty. Soldiers must be heroes and leaders, yet willing to subordinate themselves in all things to the will of superiors. Such is true service to country and flag. In like manner the militant Church of today, battle-searred yet valiant in conflict with the world, makes demand of undivided allegiance to the banner of the Cross with summons strong that brooks no disobedience, n0 SEli'lSh aggrandizement. no shirking of duty The Church needs Peters who, tho they fall, do so only to rise again, Luthers who fear naught save neglect of duty to serve God and fellowimen-needs men who can lead yet follow. Follow thou Me is as urgent today as ever before. A devoted, con- secrated, faithlui follower is as indispensable to the advancement of the institution known as the Church of Jesus Christ as the unnamed, unhcnored, and unsung private who oHers his life as a sacrifice 0n the altar of his country. The individual responsibility of the Christian soldier may involve a burden wcarisome and heavy. To follow the Great Captain may invite dire dimculty and hardship. But no one is required to hear what He bore. llNot My Cross - but thy cross take up and follow Me is His command. With a world full of evilsiignorancc, superstition, skepticism, immorality on every sideea sight sad; dening to the extreme, ask not what am I to do? Follow thou Melt 0, what need of an example of sobriety, justice, and godliness in a world of chaos. of imr purity, fraud and impiety! Follow thou Him with integrity of heart, without distraction, Without mur- murlng, envy or calculations of consequences. Seek not exemption from the Cross, the it be supremely undesirable. Volunteer for the perilous and the alrcluous. This is our duty and our blessedness as well. So minded, the present 1A:lll. loom up into its right lighti Fear, care, suflering and disappointment will disappear and the Future be made secure in the everlasting Now.

Aside from the fact that we were somewhat greater in number than usual the upper classmcn did not seem to 120117 sider us at all Out of the Ordinary, But. although samcwhat backward at first we quickly caught the llAugie spirit and before lung, the Freshmen were taking an active part in the School life, As members of the class of :20 we were always found ready to do our share. That first year sped by only too fast, and when in the spring of 1917, the call to arms was sounded throughout the land, twenty of the class of 1920 responded to that. call and entered the service of the United States. We were not surprised, therefore, when1 in the fall of 1917 only thirty- twc of the original seventy-six lzo-ers enrolled as Sophomores. Yes, we were smaller in number: but the spirit was still there. This was shown when, during the second week of the school year, the Sophomores gathered in the old gym for the first class stunt of the year. In spite of the attempts the Freshmen made to foil our plans, the reunion proved successful. That was only the beginning of a very pleasant year together. October 25th saw us at the Longview Chalet, and at the close of an enjoyable evening, the following cfhcers were announced for the year: Carl Sodcrgren, President; Albert Eliason, Vice- Presldent; Elsie Collins, Secretary: Elizabeth Olmsted, Treasurer. Another not- able event was the class banquet, held in the uold gymll, in strictly Hooverized style Dr. and Mrs. Foss honored us ttith their presence, and our banquet was a grand SUCCESS. Our efforts have, however, not all been selfish. Each member of the class of '20 has attempted to do his or her best for the good of Augustana. In every line of student activity they have taken an active part. We have athletes who have served on the foot ball and basket ball teams, Our class is represented on the Intcr-collegiate debating teams, on the Lyceum Board, the Observer Staff, in the VVcnnerbcrg Chorus, and in thc Oriole Club. Its members strongly support the Phrenokosmian and Adclphic literary societies. In all recognized student organizations they are striving to fill their niche in a creditable manner. ll Know Thy Opportunityn,ithls Admonitlon, gravcn on the base of the sun dial on the campus, has been chosen as our class motto. Our twenty soldier boys have already proved that they ltknew their opportunity for service in the right direction, and are at the present time llout therell, doing their best for humanityls cause. Those of 1.15 who have remained bchindt are endeavoring to grasp the opportunities offered, in order that we too, when, the time shall come for us to take our part in the worldk work, may hlknow our opportunity. Day in and day out. throughout our college life, we have before us a visible reminder of the words we have chosen as our guiding principle. Each day we are striving L0 grasp their full meaning, and, when the graduating class of 1920 leaves Augustana, it shall ever aim to measure up to that lesson, so silently, yet so impressively taughLe-llKnow Thy Opportunity.

During these three remaining years we will be aided by our esteemed professors and with their help and our own eEorts we hope to become men and women who will be an honor to our beloved Alma lilater. And may we in future years be worthy of being called her graduates. But only too quickly these years will pass and we shall then lungingly look backward to the happy time and the great opportunities which are now OUrs. See us therefore, dear clasemates7 with the energy which is ours today, gather in the golden fruit of learning, which is so freely showered upon us by our beloved teachers. May we realize that the present time is ours in which to sow the seeds of knowledge which shall bring forth a rich harvest in the. future. May we never leave our Alma NIater for other fountains of learning and be as the children in the tale who left their home and traveled far and wide in search of the blue bird, the symbol of happiness, only to return disappointed to find the blue bird singing merrily in the home nest. But above all7 may we ever as a class, be loyal and true to our beloved Alma NlateriAugustana. She stands on Zion Hill, a beacon light ever pointing up- wards and homewards. Let us never fail her!

Amieiiu Arlem'r: JIJI'f BILL ijmger PAUL RANDOLPH Pagr 135 QBrganiaati-Jn The keyword of modern society is organization. Politics, industry, religion, education, all have as a baekground organization. Everything which is to be accomplished must be accomplished by an organization. If perchanee :- man looms up strong enough to do things alone, like Theodore Roosevelt, we call him an organization. One of the best proofs then that Augustana is up to the minute is the fact that she is teeming with organizations. There is a veritable flux of organizations, new x-irile ones coming into being and old decrepit being burietl,tvith or without the Fttting obsequies. The birth rate is always higher than the death rate, howr ever. Accordingly Augustana can boast such a multitude of various organizations that it would be futile to try to do justice to the long army or even mention them all within the scope of this article. We must limit ourselves to the most important ones. The most comprehensive and most powerfulof them all is the Students, Unione which despite its name never calls a strike. This is a most democratic organiza- tion, every man, tmman and child enrolled at Augustana, whether in the Free paramry or the Seminary being a member. The favorite business of this motly host is to seek redress of grievances. Many a great philippic has been delivered in its meetings; many a heated debate has been staged. Most important of all the organizations are indisputably the two literary societies, the Phrenokosmian and the Adciphic. Of these the Phrenckosmian is the most timc-honored, the guardian of Augustana's traditions, its history going back to :860 the very year of the founding of the College. All those years it has existed and extended a hand of welcome to student generation after student generation. Thousands of Alumni of Augustana think of thc Phrenokosmian literary society with especial tenderness and warmth: Many an inSpiring pro- claimer 0f the eternal truth has made his hrs: timid, awkward gestures before its members; many a seasoned Senior has there electrified the responsive multi- tudes with his thrilling phrases and compelling facts. Younger in history but no less mature in activities is the Adelphic, What has been said of the Phrcnokosmian can also he said of the Adelphic, for their purposes are identical. On the shoulders of these two rests the awful responsi- bility of directing the surplus intellectual energies of the insatiable student. Some- Limcsitho rarely-they must try to coax some sluggard out from his shell of lethargy, which is ever holding him in its confine. They hold weekly meetings with programs of quite wide range; literary, musical, oratorical, dramatic, and burlesque. Each year the twn soeieties compete in a contest where medals are awarded the successful contestants. The society which wins the greatest number of first prizes is declared the Winner of the contestt Together with the Concordia society, a Seminary organization, the two literary societies constitute the Augustana Lyceum. Augustana Lyceum is every inch as big as its name sounds. It makes possible the most important school activity of all. Each year it puts on u lyceum course with eight to ten of the very best artists available in America. Such names as Adrian Newens, Monteville Flowers, Myrna Sharlow, chola h'IacLaren will at Dnce suggest the high quality of talents the students bring to the school every year. Another activity of the lyceum of equally great importance is the publishing of IllC Augustana Observer, which is the students,1 nH'icial organ. The Observer Petr 1.36 is a manthly magazine which presents in true colors the various activities, literary, musical, zilhlctic, social, of teachers and students, Thus it serves as a chronicle toprcserve touur posterity our pranks and fro!ics,our endeavors and achievements. Indeed we can easihr imagine how twenty years hence some young student, who has not yet seen day, will pounce upon the volumes found in the library 10 iearn what daddy and mother achieved while they went to Augustana. We can see his tender features light up with pride, when he finds that'his iidaddy was captain of the football team back in H7 or that he was the stellar player on the basketball team, or yet that he tank that prize in the Phreno-Adclphic essay Contest. Of course, it wiii be his highest ambition to emulate these feats; While talking about literary societies we must say a few words about the four Swedish societies: Vitterhetssillskapel, Tegniitfbrbundct, 010v Rudbcck, and Iduna, These are perhztps the most active societies n hieh we have at Augustana. It is their mission to keep the gems of the Swedish literature from being buried under the debris of our busy American life. Much praise is due Professor Mau- ritzon for his untiring guidance in this cultural work. But not alone do we have literary organizations at Augustana; we have organi- zations which administer to the physical man as well. Among these are two which deserve special mention: the Tennis Association, and the Student Sick-Bcnefit Society. We mention these in one hrealh because they are closely allied, the for; mer having for its purpose to keep the students from getting sick, the latter to enenurage them if pcrchancc they shouid take sick despite the antidote. The only qualifications for membership of either organization is that the applicant must be a student at Augustana. Men and women alike are admitted regardless of age or looks. As a result we can boast two very successful organizations. The tennis association maintains eight clay courts. On a sunny afternoon, classes ended for the day, the couns present a bustling life. There are boys with a healthy perspiration on the brow, with hectncss of foot. agility of movement. and dexr terity of execution which staggers the human senses; there are girls with complexion for which they are not in the least indebted to the Callege Pharmacy. Each spring and fall the assoeiation conducts a tournament open to all members of the association. SIMON FJGERSTROM '19.

Pagv 11!: mm ngugtana Slipteum Wherever one turns, the usual run of events has become changed from Hthc peaceful pursuits 0f happincss , to the unusual and disturbed course due to our participation in the W'orld Conflict. In this, we are proud t0 say, Augustana is doing her part, Which in turn distLIrbs our activities. Tho these difficulties are surely felt, the Lyceum is still active. The Lyceum is the largest and most far-rcaching organization here at schonl and it fills a place that no other organization can Fill. It is made up of the three leading literary societies of our school, the Phrenolcosmian, thc Kdelphic and the Concordia. The Lyceum promotes the leading activities of the college life, the lZhugustana Observer and The Lyceum Course . A third activity has been contemplated, that of establishing an Augustana Lyceum Bureau, which shall be a medium for furnishing talent in the interest of Luther League work. It is to be hoped that this branch will with the coming year receive the same enthusiastic support that the other branches have received. The Observer is the oHicial monthly organ Of the student body representing all departments of the institution. It is well supported by the loyal Itudmm and is enthusiastically received by them as each issue appears. In this clay and age when so much is being said about loyalty and patrioiixm it is sad to say that there are Iiarkrn among thc students in this respect, that they either read some- one elsels copy 01' the library copy of the Observer? This publication needs the support of every student and ought to have it. Much Ilimrie: 1': rim to the libtml adzierlisew, who by their support make our cHorts along this line possible. Get 1'1; line, b: a :ilbicribn! The Lyceum Course which has become a favorite with the students and the loyal friends of llAugicla has even this year, in spite of the unforeseen and uncon- trollable setbacks, made 390d. This yearls course consisted of him: numbers, some of which were: The Schumann Quintcl, Elsie Baker, Dr. Edgar J. Banks, Dr. S. Parkes Cadman, Gay Zenolu MacLarcn, and all our Augustana attractions the Wennerberg and thc Oriole Choruscs. A strong course for th: year 1918-1919 is being arranged for and assurance is given that the best available talent will be secured in spite of the difhculties that present themselves - The old time tern of clectinns has been relegated to the archives and is a thiltg 0f the past. In its place the modern Australian Ballet System is used and dues away with all the old lime evils, abuses and politics of which so much hils been said The annual meeting oi the association is held during the second week of November at which time all nominations for offices must he completed and all business transacted. One week later the election is held This system has been used the past year and is proving to be a success as it gives more of an Opportunity to all students to turn out and. vote. Each member of the three literary societies is entitled to a vote.

In tts putp'ose and program it embodies the very principles upon which our instiv lutton orlglnally was founded-the extension of the Kingdom of God. It reaches out alike to all departments, professors and students, enlisting their interest and support in behalf of the King's great enterpriseithc Hevzmgelimtion of the uncvangelized part of the world? It offers no apology for its existence, there- fore, but feels convinced that the cause it represents is eminently worthy Of the honest consideration of every one at Augustana. At the institution the soeiety conducts mission study classes, renders programs and. arranges for special mission festivals. The following courses were offered lclunng the past year:- LiIslamT Religions of Mission Fields , ilLatin Americall, Lutheran Home Missions , llThc Lure of Africa , NStudents of Asiail, HInner Missions and llhtiwzlictil Missions . The courses were well received and proved highly beneficial. The society also carries on an extensive work among the congregations 0f the Augustana Synod. Several mission festivals are held during the year in those of Rock Island and Molina. Representatives of the soeiety visit the cow gregations of the Iowa and Illinois Conferences, bringing mission messages and appealing for funds. During the summer one or more solicitors are sent out to collect funds and secure members for the society. G. A. Bjork, returned missionary from India, served in this capacity last year. His work brought good results. Rev. R. D. Hult will be our Eastern representative this year. Our object is not only to arouse missionary interest in general. We sack also to make this interest something very personal and definite in fostering a spirit of missionary giving. This and is sought by 4i collecting an annual mem- bership fee of one dollar, 10 appealing for free-will giits, donations zind legacies, 0, receiving collections on Conference Sundays and at missinn festivals, and di collecting funds during the summer thru special representatives. Last year $3,291.37 were gathered in this way. The year 1917 was epoch making in the history of our society. We set a new record in our finances, but that which above all made the year a jubilee year, was the unanimous decision of the: Synod at its annual meeting last junc to begin mission work in the African Sudan. The initial impulse to this great undertaking came from our society. Rev, R. D. Hult, one of the societyis most active mem- bers, was called to this field. He is nuw pursuing studies at the Kennedy School Of Missions, Hartford, Conn. We pray God that ua great door and elicetual may soon be open for him in this field. Partly because of the new and greater respcmsibility thrust upon Christian missions as a result of the great world struggle, and partly because of the new obligations which the Augustana Synod must meet with regard to its new mission fleitl, the society feels called upon to put forth greater effort than ever in its work this yearl It has promised to raise $500 each for our missions in India, China, and Africa, and $200 for our mission in Porto Rico. Also this year special eHort will be made to raise funds for the erection of the Hasselquist School in China, a school where future native evangelists and pastors are to be educated Friends of missions, in making these promises for this year the Augustaim Foreign Missionary Society counted on you and your deep sense of personal re- sponsibiiity with regard to missions. You will heed the call for help in this great cause. Christ identifies Himself with the millions of needy souls in India, China, Africa and Porto Rico, saying, HWlluitzsoever ye did unto the least of these, ye did unto Me . We invite you, therefore, to join us in this glorious work. Send in your name with one dollar to Dr, C. A. Blomgren, Treas., 825-35th StU Rock Island, Ill. Do it now. Help this year will be double help. Jmm BENSON Pagr 147 013132 $tuhent ?nluutzer iganh The Student Volunteer Band of Augustaua College was organized in 1914, Each member of this Band is a member of thc nettinu-uide Student Volunteer Movement which has as its aim the enlistment of all college men and women who express it to be their purpose, if God permit, to become foreign missionaries, and who are training tlmmsclvcs for that life purposc. This Movement was organized by John R. Mott in 1888. As a result of iL over 6,000 students have been sent to the noniChrislian lands, there to labor for the advancement of the kingdum of God, Though this Organization does not send and support missionaries on the field, its value as an organizer of Christian missions cannot be estimated. Through it college students are brought face 10 face with the question of foreign missions and, as :1 result, many more Lhzm other- wise are enlisted in this great cause. The Band at Angustana is comparaLively new but, nevertheless, Lherc are several of its former members who have gone 1'0 the foreign field and are there at the present time. The present Band aims to keep in touch with every one of its former members thus being somewhat of a connecting link bchccn these for- mer students and their Alma Mater and home laud. At present there are 14 Augustana students in this organizatinn-IO young men and 4 young women. This group meets one hour a u eck to study and pray for missionsl In addition To Lhis the members give programs in our churchcs here in the cities.

At a special meeting of the Concordia Society, NOV. 14, I917, the question of organizing a local unit was taken up. A committee was elected to look into the matter and report at a future meeting At the meeting of the C. Sq Nov. 21, 1917, the committee recommended that a unit be organized. The C. S. adjourned and the body was calledlo order by A, P. Lawrence Who was elected temporary chairman. Walter Peterson was elected temporary secretary. The ofhcers elected were: Prcst Victor E. Back, Vicer Pres. Paul H. Andreen, Sec. L. E. Jones, Treas. Prof. A. Hult, E. J. Sackrison was later clcctcd Financial Sect The organization then proceeded to take the steps necessary for recognition as a permanent otganization of the institution, which recognition was duly granted. Among its activities during the year was thefmancialdrive during the week cf Feb. 18-25, 1918. This drive was begun by a get-togethcr banquet, which ban- quet was the wind up of a weelfs membership campaign, during which campaign all the male Lutherans of the institution were urged to become members, with the result that 184 members could be reported. At the banquet Rev. N. P. Sjogren, camp pastor7 Camp Dodge, addressed the gathering. Dr; Blomgren made the appeal for funds. Over 250 dollars were subscribed that evening and the Fmal result of the drive was 648 dollars. This money goes to the war fund raised for the National Lutheran Commission for Soldierst and Sailors' Welfare. Another event of more than ordinanr intctest was a ulimbering uptt and friend- ship get-together, Mar. I9, 1918. Class and other distinctions were forgotten and all mingled as brothers. The Brotherhood also, whenever opportunity is afforded, seeks thru its members to promote the brotherhood spirit and to organize local units in the congregations of our Synod. Thus during the Christmas holidays especially a number of chapters were organized. As the L. B. of America fills a distinct need, so it is our conviction that the local chapter will fill a local need that of promoting Christian fellowship. What the Y. M. C. A. is to many institutions, what the Y. M. L, L. is to some, may we not venture to hope that that, and more than that, the L. B. may become for Augustana. . VICTOR E BFCK.

Emerson sounded the note of modern education when he said. uIf the single main plant himself indomitahly on his in- stincts, and there abide, the huge world uill come round to him. Thu: instincts oi the individual are basic to all education and character building. As his psychic inheritance from the race, they come across the brief span of civilizatimi to him from an ancestry which, thru untold generations7 survived in the hard struggle for existence as the fittest. because it was dominated by those instinctive tendenw cies. Now while it is true that education and character building are the rcsultants 0f the sublimation 0f instincts, education adapting the individual to environment, and character building bringing about his favorable response to environment, yet with societal ends in view, it is obvious that the development of certain instincts, since they result in a greater degree of social contribution, is of more signilicance than the development of Others. The betterment of society for all time, brought about by such men as Moses, Socrates, Pault St. Augustine, Luther, Wesley, obtained not from the development of receptive tendencies solely on the part of these men. They Were not purely buck worms. They obeyed the instincts inborn in every individual, tho more pronounced in some than in others, to excel, to dominate the situation, to uplift others, or to give expression to self, rather than merely to imbibe. - Now, if these expressive tendencies an: more potent for the betterment Of society than arc the receptive tendencies, our education should give them proper recognition. Nludern education is not merely individualistic in character; it is social. It. looks to the welfare of the individual: but its suprcmcst interest centers in race progress. Among the instincts Which culminate in self expression, certainly that of leader ship is most deserving of our consideration. It demands our special attention at this time. Post-bellum social conditions Will make imperative the marshalling of a large force of educational and moral leaders. The wake of :1 gigantic war entails always a certain amount of secial degradation on the part of the belligerent nations. Especially will our own land feel the weight of the degradation. Un- thinkable numbers of its sons who might have been moral leaders will not return home. There will be an ever increasing inHux to our shores of the riff ml? of Europe, who will leave their awn lands to escape high taxation and other undesirable con7 sequences Of the present crisis. There is even now created a new melting potl'. Young men of every race and condition are being fused, in the heat of a common strife, into a citizenry of inspiration and idealsl We must develop moral and educational leaders capable of making the fusion 011C worthy of the citizenry of a great democracy of the Twentieth Century. But how shall we develop our potential leaders; by increasing the dose of Greek Hebrew, and mathematics; by regarding them as mere human sponges? Does the class room attitude promote leadership; or shall we look to agencies which in- volve a different type of responsibility on the part of the student? Is it not true that the college society, u-ith special reference to forensic secictics, has in it the essentials of success for such promotion? In the debating society, the student Pagr mu learns hitn-scll, .as'th'e leader must, by sizing himself up with others; he learns his czlpaCItJCS, hts limitations. waithstanding what Carlvlc says to the contrary. WE tln well To heed Plawls injunction, ilKnow thvself . Many a student nativcly endowed. for leadership never comes tc: a realization of his powers because he never learns himself. The Arabians have a maxim Which runs like this: HHe who knows 1101, and. knows nOt that he knows not is a fuol; shun him. He who knows not, and knows that he knows not is simple; teach him He who knows, and knows not that he knows is asleep; wake him. He who knows, and knows that he knows is wise; follow him.H The debating society promotes iii the student qualities requisite for success: as a leader IL is mo obvious to require comment that scientific debate is a most potent subject to develop logical thinking And again, there is no phase of college activity fraught with more enthusiasm 0n the part of students than is live debate The instincts to fight, to excel, to dominate the situation, are mo strongly inherent in our nature to admit of our losing interest in a matter over which we are to cross swords'a with others, be the contest physical, or intellectual. Nam habit is so fundamental, and there is so much truth in the theory of formal discipline, that if students acquire the habit of engaging in activities with the enthusiasm incident to live debate, that enthusiasm will carry over into other spheres 0f ac- tivity, and will tend to characterize all phases of post-collegc endeavor. It is a quality tleplnrably lacking in the majority 01' adults; but certainly a trait most imperative for leadership. Stanley Hail once said that the real fall of man is to do things without zest. We might continue to enumerate values Which accrue from the debating society; such as the habit of research, of enlarging the vocabulary, of thinking on one's feet, and others, all of which constitute equipment indispensable to the leader. It is not our purpose to Speak here of the relative values of college activities, nor do we depreciate the importance of athletics; a sound body for a sound mind is moat to be coveted. But we fail to see the logic of a onevsided enthusiasm on the part of any institution in favor of physical activities. 15 physical ci'liciency, or intellectual efhciency, the criterion of education: the summum bmtum of college training? If the former, then certainly our educational scheme could be organized more economically than at present. Those aspiring to be educated may remain at home, neglect intellectual pursuits, enjoy a brief period of training under some coach of the jess Willard type, and emerge from it educated. Our debating teams of 1918 have bravely attempted, with no mean degree of success, to redeem the College with reference TO inter-collcgiatc contests. They have been victorious. over three colleges out of four with Whom they have cuntested. Having the encouragement due them from the Institution. they will meet wholly with. success a year hence. With such encouragement. there will be more interest among students at large in forensic work; our College will enjoy a leadiitg- place among other institutions in producing intellectual'a'tltietes: and a most stgmhcant phase of education will be accorded proper recognition.

No art exercises such a strong inHuence over the human race at the present time as that art of music. It has become a part of our existence. Verily is this true in the Augustana College Which is fortunate enough in having in connection with it a Conservatory of great significance, which maintains a high standard offering unlimited advantages for a broader culture, in every branch of musical and dramatic art. The advantages in the Augustana Conservatory make a special appeal to the student oEering to each the much desired privilege of hearing guod music, gaining an entirely new vicwrpoint atid inspiration as well as. obtaining an increased store Of dehnite knowledge. The organization which oEers the greatest advantages not only to the student body as a whole but also to the entire surrounding community,-which at times seems not to consider this a rare opportunity is the Clef Club. This musical organization with a membership of all students, not only Cour servatory' students, desiring to belong was organized by the Conservamry faculty and a few Conservatory students in the fall of 1914. It was first thought to open this only to Conservatory sludents but was decided to allow all who desired to belong to join this organization. Steps were taken immediately and officers elected, each serving the term of a school yeari The offices are as follows: Presi- dentuVieeePrcsident-Secretary-TreasureriProgram Committee. As the school week's work nears its close four olclock every Friday afternoon, this was the time set for the matinee recitals, thus aiiording an opportunity for the guests who find it possible to attend. A feature of the Clef Club was to have weekly recitals in the College Chapel, lasting one to one hour and a half, by members of the faculty and students of thc Conservatory. These recitals were to consist of the choicest in classic and modern musical composition including VoicevVioliniPiano-PipeA organ-and Elocution. ' During the four years of its existence the Clef Club has progressed remarkably and has reached such a stage that the Friday afternoon recitals are looked forward to with the kccncst of interest. And now recitals are not only given by the faculty members and students of the Conservatory but artists, who will be mentioned later. Another pUrpose 0f the Clef Club is to emphasize the existence as a musical Organization to educate with a view of a professional career, personal and 50cial culture, and the necessity of intelligent attention to the best talent in the musical world. The recitals that are given at the Clef Club are of essential importance not only to those who desire special instruction in certain subjects but to those who aim higher for the possession of culture. A plan of the Clef Club is to study the composers, their lives and compositions, history of musical art, the principles of teaching and the aesthetics of music. The different members of the Clef Club are called upon to either perform or sing at the various recital programs illustrating whatever master is to be taken up upon a set day. Often times it is impossible to arrange recitals by certain masters 50 varied programs are frequently given. A main object of the Clef Club is to arrange a studentsg recital at least once a. month, when students from the various departments are requested to take part. I'ugz- 182 This dOCs not only surround the members with a musical atmosphere but each individual Accustoms himself or herself to public appearances or hears the work of otherst Allho student recitals are given only unce a month, it should not be understood that the recitals for the remainder of the month are not of equal interest, along instructive and educative lines. Throughout the school year several of these matinee recitals are given by the different facuhy members, often times join! recitals being arranged N0 slight mention huwevcr should be made of the recitals which have been given by the various music clubs of the tri-citics tNIolinc, Rock Island, and Daven- porD. The Clef Club has extended invitations to these music clubs and always have they responded favorably with programs of cxcccding interest. For application of the principles pointed out to the student in the class room, artist recitals an: arranged for the Clef Club hour. These talents always rank among the best known artists. This gives the student an opportunity to hear compositions intelligently and to study the individual interpretation at each. Such people of reputation as Mary Angell, Winifred Lamb, Silvio Scionti, pianists, who an: artists in every sense of the word, and many others have rendered pro- grams in Voice, Violin, Pipc-organ, and Iilocution. Likewise, most interesting lectures have been given, one well Wnrth mention was that of Dr. W. A. Colledgc on HBums . It is the desire of the Clef Club to have more of these lectures and- also to be able to secure many more artists in the future. Altho the Clef Club is an organization for student membership, at the same time it extends a cordial invitation to the public in general to attend these recitals every Friday afternoon. Indeed, it would be a great encouragement for the Clef Club to see the puhlic take even more interest than has already been shown. In fact we need not only mention the public but we find some in our own college life who are perhaps a little slack in their appreciation and interest. We urge all to come and enjoy the privilege of hearing the best music this community affords. ALTHEA BROW Pay :53 Pagr I84 .mv... . . wk, thxuu Qm E5?

Pugs 213 VARSITY FOOTBALL TEAM $132 1917 Jfoothall gamma Last fall when we returned to resume our School work something else besides inter-clztss football was our plan and purposc, because Augustana was to have an intercollegiate team for the first Time since the tail of 1904. In June the Synod acted favorably upon the studentx' petition to leave the question of intercollegiate football to thc Beard Of Directors. At its annual meeting, this body voted to restore intercollegiate football here :11 Augustana. Our material was not the best, in fact, veryr limited and inexperienced, due to the faet that most of the members of the Former intcr-class teams had enlisted in the service of the United States. However, we set to work in earnest and tried to make the best of the existing conditions. Fortunately Ted Davenport, well known in tri-city football circles, was secured as coach for the team. COach Davenport had to begin at the iowest stage of the game due to the iaek of experience and build up :1 team from the bottom. As the season progressed, his efforts were beginning to show in the better style of playing and no doubt, if we had had some more games, the team would have made more marked advances under his skillful leadership and coaching, At the start of the season Laurence J. Eckstrom was elected captain of the squad. Mr Eckstrom was the first captain of an intercollegiate team since the fall of 1904. He scrved as captain during,r the First two games of the season, and after his being sailed into service of his country, Paul Randolph was elected captain for the rest of the season. Much of the teamis success was due to the efforts and work of these two captains. The ftrst game of the season was played with Cornell College at MountYernon, Iowa, which resulted in a defeat for the local team. The team must be given credit for the class of ball put up against their more experienced, better conditioned and heavier opponents. In the hna! quarter the experience and endurance of their heavier Opponents became evident but the team fought gnmclt' to the and. Much valuable experience was gained in this game, which proved of great benefit later on in thc foliowing games. Illinois Wesleyan of Bloomington was our next opponent and alsa our first conference opponent. The team journeyed to Bloomington on October 13 and lost to W'eslcyan by a 12 to 3 score, NKootch'i scoring the locals3 points by a drop kick in the third quartet The experience gained in the Cornell game and the two weeks' additional practice showed its eHects. Almost thruout the whole game the varsity, especially the line, outplayed their oppcnents, being held for downs inside the thtecn yard line several times. The piaying of the team in this game had improved one hundred per cent over the playing in the Cornell game. Two weeks later, October 27, the htst intercollegiate game was played on our home held since 1904, when the Iowa Wesleyan team met the Geld and Blue. In this game the Augustana varsity seemed to have found itself, getting the jump on the Iowa team in the hrst quarter by scoring two touchdowns and holding the advantage to the end of the first halft In the second half, the lncals scored Prrgr :15 I J three more touchduwns while the visitors scored one. The hnal score was Angus- tana 35, Iowa Wesleyan 6. The team deserves great praise for the $lyie of bail they put up against the heavier, more expreienced Iowa team. On November to Augustana closed the season with a decisive uin over the hiIacomb Normal team, 58 to 0. This game was 3150 played on the heme field. In this game Augustaua held the advantage thtuout, outplaying their lighter opponents the whole game. It was a glorious victory for the tcztm3 Coach Daven- port and Augie. One could hardiy imagine that the Augustana team was composed of the same men who a few weeks previous were totally inexperienced and untried but such was the case due to untiring efforts both of Coach Davenport and the members of the team, Augustanfs team 0f1917 was a typical green team with possibilities of strength to be developed, Only one than1 David Ekstrom, had ever had any previous c01- iegc experience, so that it is seen that the team was wholly inexperienced except for that gained by some of the players in high school. It must be generally can- ceded that the Augustzma varsity did exceptionally well in breaking even with the seasonhs schedule by winning the two last games. In looking back we realize three things, that the team was fighting against g'rcat odds, that it developed more rapidly than could be expected and that this develop- ment was due, perhaps entirely, to the untiring eHorts of Coach Davenport, and that with the experience gained last fall, Augustana will become just as re- speCted by the other hLittle Nineteen teams on the gridiron as on the basket ball floor and on the base ball diamond. Hats of? to Coach Davenport and the 1917 varsity! The following, having played the required time necetzsary for a letter, were awarded sweaters with their letter attached: Captain Randolph, Captaineciect Anderson, V. Ericson, D. Ekstmm, C. A. Swanson, J. Forsberg, A. Almcr, M. Nordgrcn, O. Dahlquist, H. Gayiord; R. Bengston, and E. Wickstmmt Bloom- berg received a letter but no sweater as he had received his sweater previously. The following also deserve special mention for their faithfulness in coming out the whole season: MA Collins, R. Redstrom, E. Lack, A. NIartinson and H. Hcdiund. With eight letter men back, the substitutes mentioned above and the new material which will be fuund in the Freshman class next fall, Augustana can expect much from the varsity next fall under it Kootchhs able leadership. kt ZUPPKE , 18.

A. ?.undbcrg, aH-state Forward, and captain7elect Johnson were also in the service, as was last ycaris captain, Samuelson Taber and Holmgren were not in school. BIoomberg, later elected captain was the only lcttcr wan to respond, together hith William Anderson, a memher of last yeaHs squad. How- ever a large number responded and some very promising material was uncovered. The team was built around captain Blcombcrga hc being the only veteran on the squad. Although the majority of the games were lest, they were lost by very close scores. The team played excellent ball and fought from whistle to whistle. In the Knox game this was especially noticeable, trimming the champiuns of the Little Five by a score of 20 to 18, displaying excellent form both on defense and offense. The Augustana team this year was a typical green team, giving promise of greater development as the season progressed, which was manifested in the im7 proved style of play in the latter part of the season. Only one man had had previous College experience but thru the untiring efforts of coach Conrad a light fast team was davclopcd. As only Captain Bloomberg-is lost to the team by graduation, prospects for a winning team next year are very bright, and we wish captain-elect Bcngston and his team malts much success-thc I. I, A.

ELMER FRIEDLUND :2l Fricdlund is a new man on the team Lhis year. lie is being used in the box wiih decided succzss. He has lots of speed and nlsn has a very good curve ball. He can also cover first when necessary. Pngr 226 ALVIN Ammn '20 AI is an ouliicldcr and covers much territory. He pulls dawn the long one: and as a batter hits well. He is A fast man and should he a valuable asset 10 next ycaris team. RUBEN BERGENDOFP '2! '; Bergici' plays in the outfield and is K1150 a catcher if need be; He is a good hitter and lields his position in goud shape. He should develop into a good man in his 1hrcc remaining years. HARLOW Gnmxu '21 Harlow plays the inEcld ur ouIEeld equally welli He is a good Fielder and also a good batter. Aithc he has not been used regularly he nevertheless has shown wall in the games he Ilas piaycd.

Hc wiil bc sf value to the team next year. 53a52hal1 Early in the season it appeared as tho Augustana would not he represented in baseball owing to the fact that we with many of the colleges contemplated on suspending this branch of athletics, due to conditions brought on by the war. However after some rc-considcration it was decided that at least a few games should be played. When the call for baseball candidates was issued, but two of last yearls team responded and of these two1 only one man had won the official letter. But among the other candidates appeared much promising material, however green and in- experienced it might be. Bloomberg7 the only letter mart back, was elected cap- rain and practice begun Which has developed the men to a high state of eHiciency. It. is expected that Bloomberg will do the bulk of the catching and Friedlund will be used on the mound. He has a wicked hook and mixes it well with his fast ball. At firSt base Bengtson hat: the call over the other candidates because ofprevious experienceatthatsack. Hecan also be used behind the bat should occasion demand it. Palmer is working at second in good style and improves with every practice. Swanson is placed at short. which position he holds down in admirable form. He is our only lcft-hzlndcd hitter and is used as lcad-OH manl At third Collins fields like a veteran being especially good on ground balls. He also bums well. In the outfield Randolph is being used at center because of his previous exe patience in that Field. Paul is a slugger and consequently bats in the cleaneup position. Nordgrcn has been pulling down the high OTICS in left and also acquits himself admirablyut the bat. Dahlquist has been playing in right Field and is do- ing himself and the team credit. Others who have been used in the outlield arc, Bcrgendofl, Gaylord and Johnson. Altho the men are inexperienced they give promise of developing into a fast team which can win ball games. The first game of the season revealed the fact that the men can hit and field as well. They hit the ball squarely and as a con- sequence drive many runs Over the plate, W'ith the old fight and pep that make Augie teams feared thruout the state, we feel that this yearls team too will succeed in Winning the majority of its. games, altho facing a giant task occasioned by lack of veterans. With the support of the student body and the hearty cooperation of all the team will do our school honor. Anonymous w w x!

Swanson, who was detained by Morpheus. Accordingly Paymaster Palmv quist telegraphed the train to be late about an hour7 to which the engineer kindly consented. Col. Creek arrived at last with his collar in his pocket and all was Well. . The first objective in true military Style was Camp Dodge, where we met With a most responsive audience. We sang as we never had bcfore-or after, Bosstbly. . In the words of iiDocii Bostmm and the Rag Time King the soldiers Went mld, simply w1ld,over usf, We advanced on Des Moines the same night, on the way to Des h'ioines however, we were ambushed by Generals Hearse and LaGrippc. However, we gained the Des Moines objective safely. Corporal Dahl- quist conquered single handed a heart and was rewarded for his bravery the Done ble Cmss. We shifted to the northwest the following day and took Albert City although our forces were greatly incapacitated by the gas attack ambush of Genera! Hearse. Pomeroy entereci the next day. Here the telling attack of Des Moines became evident in the illness of Corp. Rudy Swanson, who was sent TO rhe base hospital at Sioux City. Cigarettes arrived this day also, most of them Fatimas. Dahl- quisL in recognition of his great services as heart capturer was given a bunch of celery. A hschrnchiichkeiti, party composed of Paymaster Palmquist. Ltst Ericson and Fcrm and Col. Crook was sent out and succeeded in breaking one good bed.

Big day ior Palmquist and Farm The line oi march nowled southward to Oakland, home of the rcdoubtuble hWVickin' Here we had a fine reception and entered the city very peaceably, gaining the victory after a little struggle. Randolph was here given a very severe wound in the region of the heart. not necessary to send him to the base hospital hewever, At this concert the ambush of General Hoarse was vcrjr noticeable on the following: Bestmm, HA 01303, C. Johnson, and Wilson: while St. Ericsou was so badly wounded that he had to be given a furlough home. Commander-in-Chief Bergquist personally led the attack 011 Omaha. We were welcomed in a splendid manner. and although $tiii incapacitated because of the Des Moines ambush, presented a good attack and gained the hrst line trenches. Sgtt Olson here lost his knapsack and as the French have it hit tima- teriei. Lt. Johnsnngs ihnmteriel was therefore commandeered for him. write Little Raseaigi was first spoken aloud in this city. Miss Malmmse succumbed here to the attack of General Hearse. AL Stanton we had a fine reception, here Lt. Randolph and Rydback shone; Red Oak, the prettiest town ill Iowa, fell next under Our attack. The next move was on Ottumwaithe armer realizing that this was a town of ladies refused to fight and surrendered to the girls. Even Nordlander and Sanden were captured, only Sody and W'iison surviving.

At the outset we planned on creating a book, not larger than ever before, but, if possible, better than any preceding one. We think that we have succeeded in the latter, and in the former we have use tablished a record, this book being the largest Rockctyei that was ever published at this institution, and this in spite of the war. Our success is due to much hard iabor and to the support, moral and real, given us by our advertisers, by the students and by the faculty. We Vi ish t0 mene tion those especiaily who have favored us with literary contributions; art work and caricatures. We acknowledge receipt of literary productions from Prof; I. M, Anderson, Prof. J. F. Page, Prof. J. Victor Bcrgquist, Miss Althea Brown, and Nlr, E. W. Olson,e to these we extend Our sincerest thanks for their whoie-hcarted .eooperation. Our display of art is due to the ceaseless, untiring efforts of Gilbert Swanson and Reuben BergendoH, the former having drawn the headings of each department, with one exception, and the latter having done practically 1111 of the straight line work as well as the lettering. To these we express Our deepest appreciation Our cartoons were drawn by Walter Young and Oliver Strandburg. uh: thank them for The added interest they give to our publication. In addition to these we 3130 Wish to mention Harry Anderson for his support in seeming ad- vertisements. The not directly 4 member of the staff he has rendered appreciated services. We Call your attention to the facl. that aside from the engraving, printing and the ilrticlc heralding Dry Rock Island, we have employed no outside talent, each and every one who has assisted in one way Or aimther being either a faculty member or a student of Augustana. In this we feel justly proud, Without hesitancy, therefore, we launch this yearn; Rocketyll in the interest of Augustana and with a sense of Satisfaction to ourselves. May this volume recall fond memo- ries to those who have had the good fortune to attend here, and may it serve well as an invitation to these who wuuid avail themscives of such an opportunity.
