NE of thc great advantages that Carthage College offers to its students is the privilege of worshipping in Trinity Lutheran Church. This is due to the pastor, the Reverend Doctor Jacob Diehl. After coming here in March, 19141, from a pastorate in Lock Haven. Pennsylvania, Doctor Diehl has won a place in local circles which is to be envied by all. Through his untiring efforts, the stu- dents of the college have found his church a real church home, yet at no time losing the ties with their home congregations. The church is open at all times for the activities of the college, thereby taking the place of the much needed auditorium. Doctor Diehl Ends his church packed at each service with the students who realize the true worth of the messages which he has for them. His messages are Hlled with an unswerving loyalty to the fundamental truths of Christianity. The fact that he is a Hnished student of theology and philosophy gives a wonderful breadth to his sermons, and makes them a more solid foundation for the lives which are here being formed and lived. He is a real two-fisted fighting man. the example of whose life has raised the standard of his-calling, and given those who care to follow. a firmer grip on the things of the spirit.
