OSCAR I. HERTSGAARD. HI dare do all that may become a man. ERE we have PreXie who is also busi- ness manager of VIKING 308. He is a man of great energy and of a cosmopolitan na- ture. Music, mathematics, science and the classics share his attention alike. Besides be- ing solo clarinetist and assistant director of first band he is director of second band and of the Junior Glee Club. He is undoubtedly the busiest member of the Junior class, yet he does all his work well, and no one has the slightest fear of that any business detail of the VIKING will not receive due attention. He is a thorough student and a debater of recognized ability. n BURION HANSON. The higlzcst wisdom. is continual chc'c1'ful1iess OST of us know him by the name of Burt Among his many good char- acteristics his social nature is prominent, so there are very few among the students who do not know him-the ladies not excepted. His friends are many and his enemies few. Never to be caught in a despondent mood, he is ever cheerful and happy. His good nature even spreads contagion among his companions. Be- ing of such a sunny disposition he naturally is full of life and shows--I was going to say a weakness, but it is rather a strongness for outdoor sports. Especially does he admirably fill the position as an impregnable Stonewall in defense of our goal in basket ball. 28-

A HANS J. GLENN. 1llan'.r Conscience is the oracle of God. LENN is our editor-in-chief. We have in him a man equipped with a good head, a strong affinity for Work and above all an exacting conscience. Although mental gymnastics fall right in his line We ind that his interests are centered on something higher, namely the salvation of souls. We End him with this end in View traveling from school to school as held secretary of The Students' Vol- unteer Mission Movement, and from congre-' gation to congregation as representative of the St. Olaf Mission Society. It is likely that such as may wish to hnd him in later years must look to the foreign held. ' K 1 . F. '. g ! 4 . ANDREW FLOM.

Q IDA S. IORSTAD. She doeth little leizidnesses PVf11'Ch most leave undone, 01' despise. LTI-TOUGH ashamed of her faculty for laughing, Miss Iorstad really expresses by it her high spirits and jolly good nature. Coupled with this we have in her an extremely sympathetic spiritg one that has received a few hard knocksg but by reason of strong faith has coine out of the fire rehned and more able to feel for those Who suffer. She is an exponent of active womanhood and as such has a high opinion of Womanls place in the machinery of this World. It is certain that Whatever Work she takes up after graduation, it vvill be for the benefit of her fellow beings. STELLA BEATRICE IEANETTE HOPl'EliSTfXD. HC-1'LllL1lI'CCZ1 and fine 11za1mc7'.r are eUe1'y-wIze1'e a f1a.rsp01't to regard. X FORTUNE favored the class of '08 when Miss Hopperstad was prevented from entering St. Olaf College before the fall term of 'o4. The excellent records of her high school work, the careful preparation of her lessons, and her fluent translations in Greek and Latin bespeak her value as a student. Her fine artistic sense together with her painstak- ing efforts enable her to do neatly any kind of fancy work. industrious as she is, pleasure is never slighted, and her wholesome contribu- tions of mirth to the class are invaluable. That she has musical ability, her position on the VIKING staff testifies. In brief, Whoever forms her acquaintance will find her accoml plished. .
