CLASS SONG D18 Words and Music by Ester dander The time is quickly drawing nigh When school-days dear are gone, When times of joy and sorrows, Arc but. an echoing song. Shall we forget the hours, That we have spent as one, And ouly look for prospects Till setting of the sun. Chorus “Carpe Diem” is our cry. Let it ring from earth to sky, Let it soar to realms unknown, With a message all its own! 0, let us not forget our aims, But always hold them dear, Keep alw ays on I lie sunny side When troublous times draw near For we are twenty-seven all, Who each one strives along, The paths of toil and trial With an ever cheery song Our Alma Mater good, we love, It stands for what Is right. It led us on the paths of truth And kept us in the light. We leave it now with saddened hearts To meet a world of care; Whatc’er may be our lot in time, Let B. A. be our share. CLASS HISTORY OF 1918 By Both E. Carlson Gustav A. Gustavson. The little province of Westerstad, Sk nc, Sweden, has become famous as the birthplace of our president, who first made his appearance in the world at that place Oct. 15, 1892. But finding Skft-ne too small a place for the development of his ambition, he came to the great America 1903 and settled down at Long Prairie, Minnesota, where he attended public school. Feeling the need or a higher and nobler education, he entered Bethel Academy in the fall of 1914. “He is little, but oh my” beware of opposing him in argument or being judged by him; it being his nature to excel in that work as is shown by his motto Be Yourself. His favorite study is “History and his favorite flower the red tulip. Fred Moberg. Like a beautiful dream he came into the world on the morning of De- cember 20, 1S89, in the city of Stockholm, Sweden. From there he journeyed with his parents, from one short-lived nestling place to another until the age of seventeen years, when he found himself in Leksand, having a deepseated conviction that Sweden had exhibited all its most beautiful scenery to him. So he jorneyed a erookei route thru parts of Germany, Denmark ond Norway over the Atlantic and across America, arriving at Kingsburg, California, on a fine May morning. After some years of varying experiences he decided to come to Bethel In 1915 and arrived in due time to be greeted by a fina blizzard, a long-lost friend of his. As a scholar he ranks among the best and has chosen as his favorite study “Anthropology” upon which he meditates between 12 P. M.

When the sun goes down with a flaming ray And the dear friends hare to part. Well, this is the end of a perfect day, X’ear the end of a journey, too; But it leaves a thought that is big and strong, With a wish that is kind and true; For niem’ry has painted this perfect day With colors that never fade. And we find at the end of a perfect day, The soul of a friend we’ve made. Carrie Jacobs Bond.
