IN MEMORIAM The death of Professor Speckman, which occurred dur- ing the summer vacation last year was a source of grief to all who knew him. He was in his third year at Elmhurst when the disease which finally took his life attacked him. Dr. Speckman was happy in his work at Elmhurst. He often spoke of how well he liked it here. He belonged to that order of men who do not thrust themselves forward. He was modest, quiet, and kindly. His life here won for him the regard -and affection of both students and faculty. He was interested in all the departments of his field of study. The world in which he lived, and in whose workings he was absorbed was God ' s world. He found God in his world, and this discovery lent meaning and dignity to his whole life. 26

Rev. Chworowsk THE COLLEGE CHURCH To its Student-Members and Friends, St. Peter ' s Evangelical Church, Elmhurst, Illinois, the College Church , bids greet- ings ! We are pleased to use the annual op- portunity of addressing the students of Elmhurst College through the Elms and to express to them our appreciation of the co- operation we have received from them throughout the days of the school year which is now drawing to a close. It has been our privilege diiring the past months, because of our worship and work in the college chapel that were so generously placed at our disposal during the construction of our new church, to be even closer associated with the college family. We feel that this closer association has been mutually helpful and stimu- lating, and we hope that whatever may have been gained during these days of closer contact of interests and personalities in the way of a larger spirit of fellow- ship and a finer sense of spiritual co-operation may endure, now that the program of the church is to be carried on in its new building. May we in the interest of common evangelical task, make just this further statement: The work of the church among college-students is steadily receiving more attention and encouragement in all denominations. Our own Synod is increasingly emphasizing the desirability as well as the necessity of gathering our evangelical students, wherever they may be, into the active fellowship of their local church. There is no narrow denominationalism in this at all, but rather the frank recogni- tion of the fact that loyalty as well as charity begins at home and that he who would be true in the larger sense cannot escape the responsibilities of duty and obligation towards his own. St. Peter ' s Evangelical Church is proud of its title the College Church ! It recognizes the demands that our students, living in constant touch with the growing body of scientific truth, must make upon the preaching and teaching as well as upon all other departments of a modern church. Our church is trying to meet these demands, and with the ample equipment of our new church-plant, we feel confident of being able to carry on our appointed share of student-work with efficiency and success. We desire to have our students know that our church considers them as brothers and fellows and that all the privileges of evangelical church membership are available to them in St. Peter ' s Church. Evangelical Students, make your Evangelical Church in Elmhurst your spiritual home during your college days! The Church Council of St. Peter ' s Evangelical Church, Elmhurst, Illinois. Karl M. Chworowsky, Adinister. Michael Kross, President. 25 m
