fsi , f .23 V i i ' , 117 Alumni Department Greetings Alumni! Your Alma Mater greets you! To you who have faced life in its realities and to you whose memories of school days are still clear, she sends her greetings! Four hundred and thirty young men and women can look to Scandinavia Academy, now known as Central Wfisconsin Col- lege as their fostering mother. These are scattered far and wide throughout the United States and even in foreign lands. To six, namely, Iver Ramseth, '00, James Jenson, '01, Qtis VVil- helmson, '02, Rudolph Peterson, '02, john A. Nhfestberg, '02, and Loyd Anderson, '07 have come the call of proclaiming the Gospel of Peace. Three, Oscar Hellestad, '01, Frida Nilsen, '12, Mrs. Anna Knutson Trygstad, '12 have consecrated their lives to enlightening their benighted brethren in China and Mad- agascar. Four, L. A. Dahl, '97, Bjarne Ravn, '00, Cscar Knutson, '00, Carl M. Anderson, '00 as doctors of medicine are relieving the temporal sufferings of their fellow men. In fact, in nearly every field of labor you will find them successfully playing their parts. Twenty-tivo have ceased their labors. Of these, tvvo, Otto Oas, '12, Casper Gilson, '13 made the su- preme, sacrifice in the VVorld VVar. Although, Alumni, it is not so very many years ago since you trod up and down the halls of Scandinavia Academy or Central Vlfisconsin College, and, although the memory of those days are fresh in your minds, it may seem at times as though there is a .wide gulf separating those days from the present. Yet we know such is not the case. The spirit of love and loyalty to our Alma Mater is rooted so deeply in our hearts that it will take more than mere time to vvipe it out. How many a time have we not assured her a deserving place in our minds and hearts? How can we as Alumni best show our loyalty and love for our Alma Mater? NfVords become mere words if they are not put into action, and the same with our intentions. If all the cherished plans we had for our Alma Mhter shall be realized, it is, of course, self evident that we must rally to her support.
