CUR GREAT HERITAGE THE PURPOSE OF THIS VIKING is primarily to portray the events of the past year, but more than that, it is an attempt to put in a permanent, visible form the spirit of this crusade that is St. Olaf. Because the college's religious objective colors all of its events and activities, because its divine purpose coordinates and gives meaning to each of its efforts, that objective has been emphasized throughout the book. No better expression of it can be found than in the thrilling phrases of our school songs. The power of Pram, Pram, Christmenn, Crossmennf' the beauty of Fairest of Homes and the challenge of Trumpets Resoundu combine to present the St. Olaf that shall live and inspire long after the trivial events of the year have been for- gotten. To picture the college that can take wandering children and in four years, send them out singing and believing, God's Word is Our Great Heritage, this book is presented.

GOD'S WORD IS IN 1938 PRESIDENT BOE said, No one can understand St. Olaf unless he views the college in the light of its religious objective. We are glad to advertise to the world that St. Olaf, in spite of human weaknesses and mistakes, has no higher aim than to teach the principles of our Christian faith as found in the Bible. During the fifty years since the graduation of its Hrst class, St. Olaf has remained true to its divine purpose of teach- ing and sending forth young men and women as witnesses, not to be conformed to this world, but to be transformed by the renewing of their minds. That objective has guided and moti- vated each of the activities and purposes of this institution, and today the college stands radiantly crowning the height, dis- tinctly and divinely different-a bulwark of testimony to the firmness of the Rock upon which it is founded!
