A DAY AT COLLEGE — The rising bell, at 7:00 a.m., begins the day at college for the students. After the morning clean-up in the bathroom (see above), follow breakfast at 7:20 and a short study period. From 8:15 to 8:30 the day is officially opened by a short devotion in the col¬ lege chapel, attended by all the students, with either Dir. Schwermann or Rev. Herzer conducting the service. At 8:30, three bells announce the morning classes. Above is a chemistry class busily at work in the chemistry laboratory under the direction of Prof. Herreilers. All subjects are taught in the light of God’s Word. Above we see one of the regular classes of religious instruction with Rev. Herzer.

BODY — DEPARTMENT NORMA MADU Leduc, Alta. Aim: Chemist. “I always use a crimson shade of lipstick.” LITA ESKELSON Edmonton, Alta. Aim: Photographer. “What could be more hateful than mathe¬ matics?” HIGH SCHOOL DEPARTMENT Our High School Department begins with Grade X and is based upon the provincial course of studies. To this is added a thorough course in religion, in which all students are required to register. High school in¬ spectors visit the college annually and invariably speak a word of praise for the work done here. Concordia strives to maintain a high academic standard; and our boys and girls have done good work. In the provincial final examinations, for a number of years, they have held a place very near the top among all the high schools of the province. These high scholastic standards together with the Christian atmosphere which prevails at the school make the High School Department an ideal place for Lutheran boys and girls who seek to obtain a high school diploma. 29

6 In the College Department ministerial students prepare themselves for the seminary. The picture above shows a College Greek Class, with Prof. Riep. The very welcome buzzer at 12:00 noon announces that dinner is served in the dining hall. A short prayer, led by the president of the student body, introduces and closes the meal. A brief period of recreation follows. At 1:25 classes begin again. Some insight into the entire span of the history of man is given in the Social Studies classes. Above is the Social Studies II class with Prof. Guebert. Our cooks, Mr. and Mrs. Fuhr, with Rev. Herzer as the staff adviser, capably carry out their task of satisfying the students’ appetites. The students them¬ selves take care of the dishwashing (see above.) 31
