A Portrait 
Eyes whose mirth and pathos 
blend 
Into pools of sea-blue gray; 
Lips that sweetest smile's portend 
Love's assurance every day; 
Brown hair waved in circle 
frame 
'Round a face that wisdom, 
chose, 
Bright, with beauty's glow a-
flame, 
Gentle in its calm, repose; 
Hands and feet that willingly 
Seek the duty near to do; 
Song that rings out cheerily; 
Charm of spirit ever new; 
Voice like soft mist from the 
sea; 
Heart that's loyal thru and 
thru— 
Faith, in God—humanity—
Mother dear, I picture—You.

Seniors Give Sabbath 
School Program 
The program of the Union college 
Sabbath school on May 4 was given 
by the senior class. Miss Lois Morey, 
the temporary superintendent, was 
introduced by Miss Lulu Blanche Hi-
att, who is superintendent of the Sab-
bath school and also sponsor of the 
senior class. George Stacey read the 
scripture reading and also offered 
prayer. 
An interesting and unusual secre-
tary's report was read by Miss Helen 
Wells. In this report the program of 
the previous week's ' Sabbath school 
was being related by one of the North 
Hall girls to her sick friend at the 
dormitory, who had listened longing-
ly to the strains of the hymns sung 
at the chapel as she heard them from 
her open windows. 
The lesson of the previous Sabbath 
was very strongly impressed on the 
hearers' minds by Wesley Andress in 
his review. He made a personal ap-
plication of the lesson on talents by 
enumerating some of, . the talents 
which Union college students possess 
and should use rightly.

Many Students Hear 
Schumann-Heinle 
Many Union College students were 
privileged to hear Madame Ernestine 
Schumann-Heink at the university 
coliseum, Wednesday evening, May 1. 
This was her last visit to Lincoln, and 
many of the students and teachers 
who attended expressed their appreci-
ation of the opportunity to listen to 
such a famous artist. Several from 
Union college met Madame Schumann-
Heink personally. 
PRE-MEDICS ATTEND 
 
ANNUAL PRE-MEDIC DAY 
Early Friday morning twenty-five 
pre-medic students and Prof. G. C. 
Jorgensen from Union College mo-
tored to Omaha to attend the annual 
Pre-medic Day at the University of 
Nebraska College of Medicine. �
As 
soon as they arrived, they went into 
the University hospital where they 
had to take their place in line and 
wait their turn to receive the card of 
admittance to the clinics and the din-
ner which was served free to all pre-
medic students who planned to go 
next year. 
Different students in the medical 
school took groups through the sev-
eral buildings, where they showed dis-
plays of the work that would be cov-
ered in the course of medicine. The 
students observed two major opera-
tions in the morning. 
The medic students had planned to 
have their fun with the innocent 
little pre-medics, so while they were 
all interested in, watching the doctor's 
knife the advanced students poured 
ether over everything, and to every 
person whom they noticed to be 
bleaching out they gave special atten-
tion, and, with good results, for over 
twenty-five prospective young' doctors' 
fainted and. almost as many stepped 
out of the room to keep from faint-
ing. Those who listened to ,the short 
discussion in one of the lecture rooms, 
received some valuable information 
about burns, different kinds -of can-, 
and curvature of the spine. 
In the, afternoon a ball game was 
played between the freshmen medics 
and the' pre-medics. The group re-
turned at 2:'00 a. m. Several seem 
to, 'have,,(decided''. that the doctor's 
course is not the course they really, 
 
want after all. 
SUNDAY IS PICNIC 
DAY AT UNION 
SENIORS 
Defying the weather, the senior 
class celebrated its special picnic priv-
ilege on Sunday by making an auto-
mobile trip to Nebraska City, fifty 
miles southeast of Union College. 
The attraction was Arbor Lodge, or-
iginally the home of J. Sterling Mor-
ton, author of Arbor Day. This home- 
site,- now a' at-at-d. �
-am- 
ple entertainment for the brain-weary 
seniors, weighted down by nearly half 
a decade of college erudition, who en-
tered heartily into the recreations of-
fered by investigating the mid-Victor-
ian carriages in the old barn, verify-
ing the count of 52 rooms in the man-
sion, playing (almost working—seni-
ors would!) at a ball game declared 
to be the-worst exhibition in history 
of the gentle American pastime; and, 
of course; by devouring large quanti-
ties of delicious food. A novel feature 
of the lunch was a tray of "diplomas" 
—sandwiches rolled, and tied with rib-
bons of class colors, emerald and iv-
ory. 
There followed further investiga-
tion of the Park, an area of 65 acres 
heavily wooded by trees which were 
planted by Morton. More than 200 
varieties were seen growing. 
The mansion was found to be a 
most unusual home for this section. 
Its many large rooms bespoke the 
large numbers of visitors entertained

Humann Brothers Appear 
on Lecture Course 
On Saturday even:ng, April 27, the 
Humann Brothers' quartet gave a 
program at Enterprise academy. The 
concert was the last number on the 
Enterprise lecture course. 
Assisting the Humann Brothers 
was Verne Waldo Thompson, pianist, 
who served as accompanist, and also 
played a group of solos. 
The academy chapel was well filled 
by an audience that took every op-
portunity to show their appreciation

PROFESSOR CADY SPEAKS 
TO COLLEGE STUDENTS 
Professor M. E. Cady, of Washing-
ton, D. C., spoke to the students of 
Union college in chapel, Friday, May 
3. In opening his address he asked 
two questions: "What does the busi-
ness of education mean?" and "Am I 
really getting what I pay for," 
Professor Cady defined education 
as "The process of becoming what 
God intended a man to be that he may 
do what God intended him to do,—or, 
education is the preparation which 
will enable a man to function one hun-
dred per cent for God—physically, 
mentally, and spiritually." 
Professor Cady went on to say that 
today education places emphasis main- 
ly on intellect. �
However, he thinks 
that one of the greatest tragedies of 
the present time is men educated in-
tellectually, but not educated physical-
ly and spiritually. 
In talking of the necessity for all 
the powers of man to be controlled, 
the speaker introduced to the students 
a book he has recently finished writ-
ing in which he has compiled from 
various sources the falsehoods of our 
science and the way to have a men-
tal, physical, and spiritual. education. 
By way of , conclusion, ' Professor 
Cady showed the necessity of func-
tioning one hundred per cent in giv-
ing the truth of God. He mentioned 
that the' printed page and the human 
voice are two means of sending the 
word of God, and in this connection 
he showed the autopheinoscope instru-
ment and explained its use. All of 
these things should help. us; in learn-
ing the truth. "We learn the -truth 
t613e.able• to live it and give it," Pro-
leasor Cady said, summing up his re-
marks.' 
MINISTERIAL' INIERNENIF,, 
ITO HD UPi MINISTRY 
P. L. THOMPSON 
At the Spring Council we have been 
giving careful and prayerful attention 
to the problem of placing more of our 
young men in the gospel ministry, 
and more of our young women in the 
Bible work. A definite plan has now 
been formulated and will enable our 
union conferences to place, at the 
end of school this year, several of our 
young people in this line of service. 
This new plan is to be called min-
isterial interneship and will offer em-
ployment for one year, thus giving 
those who are called to preach the gos-
pel in the pulpit as a minister, or in 
the home as a Bible worker, definite 
opportunity for service and experience 
during the year. 
We do not want to minimize other 
lines of gospel work, but certainly 
there is nothing more worthy than the 
ministry. This new plan is a most 
heartening move in the direction of 
building up the ministry. It is our 
hope and prayer that when, within the 
next few days, the details of this plan 
are set before you, there will be young 
men and women of spiritual power. 
ready to offer themselves as recruits 
in this first line of the Lord's army_ 
Those students who feel the call of 
the Lord ,;o thin service would du v. s!° 
after prayerful consideration, to come 
and talk over the matter as early as 
possible. 
Advanced Music and Expression 
Students Appear in Recital 
On Saturday evening, May 4, three 
advanced students of the departments 
of music and expression appeared in 
recital in the college auditorium. 
Those giving the program were: Clara 
Culver, soprano; Ada Townsend, pi-
anist; and Elsa Emery, reader. 
The numbers presented were well 
contrasted, ranging from the early 
classics to the works of the modern 
writers. 
The audience was large and repre-
sentative ,and took many opportuni-
ties to show their appreciation of the 
work of the performers. 
The program was as follows: 
Sonata, Op. 13 (Pathetique)Beethoven 
Grave—Allegro di molto e con brio 
Adagio Cantabile 
Allegro.

A 'Picture 
Mrs. Hazel Hartwell-Simon, a former student of 
Union College, sent Cho following Poem as a mem-
ory of "Old Union." Mr. and Mrs. Orley Simon 
are connected with the Enterprise Academy. 
Take a lovely old brick building, 
Veil it o'er with menery's mist, 
Bathe it in the warm Spring sunshine 
That the bursting buds have kist; 
Sack it with a hedge of lilacs, 
Border it with a bridal-wreath, 
Mark its paths with slender fir trees 
Where the young folks pause be- 
neath. 
Color it with tints transparent, 
Never fading through the years, 
Bright with all the shining glory 
Of a rainbow seen through tears. 
Frame the pictured whole in silver, 
And engrave these words below; 
"This is Dear Old Union College 
In the days I used to know." 
c2(Cother and 'Dad 
Mrs. Culver sends this poem, written by her son, 
Montle. member of the class of '28. who is now 
preceptor at OaK Park Academy. to "The Clock 
Tower." 
I've had some good times going to 
school, 
A learning of the golden rule, 
But the best time that I've ever had 
Has been with my dear mother and 
dad. 
I love them and they love me 
That's why with them I like to be, 
But duty calls me on and on, 
Yet I'll always love them when they're 
gone. 
Miss Philmon Addresses 
Sigma Iota Kappa 
Last Thursday evening during the 
song in worship, Miss Philmon was 
ushered into the parlor. The speaker 
was introduced by Eddie Barr, the 
president of Sigma Iota Kappa. She 
was greeted with much applause as 
she arose to speak. Her subject was, 
"Five Dy..Es of Life." 
The following is a synopsis of her 
talk: 
The first day mankind enters is a 
day of strength, a day of youth, of 
health, and of vigor. But why all this 
strength? for boasting? "No, for the 
dear old mother who has toiled for us. 
The second day is a day of sorrow. 
Whether man be rich or poor in poses-
sions or fame, sorrow seems to cor-
rode through the crimes of all. As in 
the lines of Gray, "Yet ah, why should 
they know their fate? Since Sorrow 
never comes too late." 
Then the sun rises for the third day 
of life, a day of decisions, a day in 
which all must decide for good or bad, 
"He that wavereth is like the wave of 
the sea driven with the wind and 
tossed." 
The fourth day is a day of death, 
that steals away mankind. It sneaks 
into the home and plucks them one by 
one till all have passed through that 
cloudy day. 
Then the last day, the fifth, is a day 
of judgment. This day seems to de 
pend on the way we have lived the pre-
ceding four. All must come to that 
day. "Whom have you decided to 
serve?"

MOTHER 
There is an old Jewish Proverb 
that says, "God could not be every-
where, and so he made mothers." 
While this saying may conflict with 
our ideas concerning omnipresence as 
a necessary attribute of Diety, it 
nevertheless voices an essential truth, 
that mothers, as representatives of 
God to the child are the channels 
through which the child views Ccd. 
Sometimes in this queer old world, 
blessings are thrust upon us, and we 
simply take them for granted—accept 
them as our right—and think no more 
about them. Among the most com-
mon of these are the little mothers. 
They worry, grieve, comfort, advise, 
shield and protect, and all they get for 
it usually is a little belated apprecia-
tion when they are gone. 
The word "Mother" brings to every 
mind a flood of varied memories. No 
language can express the power and 
beauty and heroism and majesty of 
a mother's love. It is the golden link 
that binds youth to age. The mother 
in her office holds the key to the soul; 
and she it is who stamps the coin of 
character, and makes the weak, un-
trained child a strong, Christian man 
by her tender care. 
The story is told of a mother who 
was going blind. �
Before the light 
went out forever, she called her chil-
dren that she might trace upon her 
mind the lines of each beloved face. 
When the long night came to her she 
answered, "No, I am not blind; my 
children's faces stay my lonely way." 
If you have a little gray-haired 
mother in the old home, sit down and 
write her the letter that you have put 
off every day. If you have a tender 
message or a loving word, don't wait 
until you forget it. There are many 
sweet words unspoken, many letters 
never sent that contain a wealth of 
long-forgotten messages for which 
gome heart is breaking. Show her 
that you care for her before it is too 
late. 
What's Ahead for 
Union College? 
Every loyal Unionite will be glad 
to know that our Spring Council has 
g:ven sanction and definite financial 
support to plans recently formulated 
by our. Union College Board for mak-
ing the work at Union College even 
-tronger than it has been in the past. 
The General Conference Department 
if Education is also heartily back of 
th's movement and will give its sup-
port to help us carry out a progres-
s:ye program for Union College. More 
be said about this later. I just 
drop this note to indicate something 
)f the forward-looking plans we have 
for the school we all love. 
With a good program for building 
'n material and spiritual things, with 
the strong faculty we shall have for 
next year, with the loyal support of 
students, and with the co-operation of 
our conferences and of our constitu-
oncy everywhere, there are good 
things ahead for Union and for her 
loyal young people. 
P. L. THOMPSON. 
SENIORS CONTINUE 
SABBATH MEETINGS 
The three fundamental principles 
rf a successful life, stated by Elder 
A. J. Meiklejohn, who addressed the 
fifteen seniors assembled in the North 
Hall parlor at 3:30 o'clock Sabbath 
afternoon are: Love of truth, love of 
God, and love of fellow men. 
A love of truth, he said, will cause 
people to think for themselves and to 
welcome truth whether it is told by 
wise men or by children, and a love of 
God opens up to one the greatest pos-
sibilities in life, while a love of fellow 
men gives one a sympathetic, enrich-
ing insight into the joys and sorrows 
of humanity. 
The seniors now meet every Sab-
bath afternoon instead of every two 
weeks and the time of the meeting has 
been changed from 4:30 to 3:30 o' 
clock. 
The main thought in the talk of 
Prof. H. K. Schilling, who addressed 
the class the preceding week, was that 
each person should enter the Lord's 
work in the way that he can serve 
best and in the way that he can serve 
better than anyone else can. 
Seniors Give Sabbath School 
`Program 
[Continued from Page 1] 
Knowledge of the geography of In-
dia, the country to which the offering 
is going and the history of missionary 
work there was tested in ten ques-
tions asked by Alfred Watt. Paper 
had been provided so that the mem-
bers of the Sabbath school might 
write the answers to the questions, 
but it was really surprising how few 
there were who could answer them. 
The questions were such as these: 
"What mountain range bounds India 
on the north? What are the three 
principal rivers? Who was the first 
pioneer of Protestant missions in In-
dia? In what year did we start our 
work in India? What Union College 
man opened our work in south India?" 
A cornet solo by Miss Edna Simon 
concluded the program. 
PRENIER TO GIVE 
COMMENCEMENT ADDRESS 
Elder H. S. Prenier has been invited 
to give the commencement address, 
May 18, at Southwestern Junior Col-
lege at Keene, Texas. Elder Prenier 
was connected with that college for 
four years as the head of the Bible 
department. He plans to leave Fri-
-lay, May 17. 
College Campus Is 
Being Improved 
Some of the academy boys, Henry 
Sonnenberg, Wilbur Dunn, and George 
Emery are constructing a flower bed 
for the Union campus. Plans are be-
ing made for a raised garden which 
will be at the end of the walk lead-
ing from the main building, where the 
walk divides. Cannas will be set out 
by the girls. Miss Ruby McGee is 
supervising the work. 
GERMAN SEMINAR 
"Where are you on life's highway?" 
was the subject of Phillip Kiesz's 
talk at the German Seminar Friday 
evening. "The call which came to 
Adam recorded in Genesis 3:9, 'Where 
art thou?' is the same call that comes 
to us," said Mr. Kiesz. "Our place 
on life's highway is determined by 
our answer to this call." 
Ronald Nethery: Why is it that the 
girls always get better grades than 
the boys? 
Harold Lincoln: I guess it's because 
they consecrate more on their les-
sons. 
`Che Home Road 
I know a little country road 
That winds away from town. 
A wilful road, a crooked road, 
Just wand'ring up and down; 
It scatters dust in people's eyes, 
Or mires their feet with clay 
But 'tis the road, the only road 
That beckons me today. 
I know a little country road 
Shut in by rustling corn, 
A narrow road, a stony road, 
With wheel ruts deeply worn; 
It wades across a noisy brook, 
Roams thru a shadowed wood, 
And lingers where the clover blossoms 
I'd follow if I could. 
I know a little country road 
That tops the hills at-last, 
A happy road, a thankful road—
Its journeying is past; 
There stands a cottage hung with

The South American Mission Band 
witnessed a very impressive program 
last Friday evening in the South Hall 
worship room. The setting of the 
program was a Friday evening scene 
in the mission field at the close of a 
very busy week. The scene was acted 
out by Lilah Baer and Evan Copeland 
representing the missionaries. As 
they were reading the CLOCK TOWER 
their minds carried them back to 
college days at Union and how during 
their senior year upon receiving a call 
from the General Conference to go to 
Peru, they turned it down. At this 
juncture a male quartet sang from be-
hind a curtain "Calling." 
As they continued recalling the �PROFESSIONALS

If the quantity of eats insures a 
successful picnic, any one could easily 
have guessed the good time the jun-
iors were gong to have if he had 
seen the eats committee at work in 
the kitchen early Sunday morning. 
At nine o'clock a large truck came 
for the group of happy juniors and 
carried them to Crete. 
To make appetites already keen, 
just a little keener, they played a 
short baseball game before dinner. 
After everyone had eaten all he 
dared of potato salad, baked beans, 
and sandwiches, he proceeded to find 
the best horse shoe player in the class. 
The hum of the motor boats in the 
distance soon sent them hurrying to 
the banks of the Blue river. They 
then spent an exciting hour in the 
boats. 
The box of sandwiches was re-
duced somewhat upon their return, 
and the ice cream and cookies were 
equally enjoyed. 
A game of "keep away" was reach-
ing its climax when the rain sent 
them to the shelter of the truck which 
the driver had provided by placing 
a large canvass over the top. 
The ride home was unusual but 
not the less enjoyable. The "roof" 
leaked but that only made the songs 
a little peppier and the laughter a 
little merrier.

ELECTRICITY 
the modern prospector 
A
STOUT heart; a burro laden with pick, shovel, 
and the bare necessities of life; and the pros-
pector was ready for the gold rush—Sutter's Mill, 
the Pike's Peak country, Cripple Creek, Klondyke. 
A scattered trail of half-worked claims marked 
his sacrifices. 
To-day mining is a business, with electricity 
replacing wasteful brawn in mine and mill. 
The deep mine, with electric lights, hoists, and 
locomotives; the surface mine with huge electric 
shovels scooping up tons of ore in a single bite; 
the concentrating mill with its batteries of elec-
trically driven machines; the steel mill with its con-
stant electric heat—here are but a few of elec-
tricity's contributions to the mineral industries. 
So in every industry, electricity increases produc-
tion and cuts costs. It is the modern prospector, 
leading the way into wider fields and tapping 
undeveloped resources—that we may enjoy a finer 
civilization and a richer, fuller life. 
You will find this mono-
gram on powerful motors 
that drive heavy mining 
machinery and on tiny 
motors that drive sewing 
machines. Both in industry 
and in the home it is the 
mark of an organization 
that is dedicated to elec-
trical progress.

,51Zothers' 'Day 'Program 
Given Dy M. V. Society 
The Mothers' Day program given 
by the college Missionary Volunteers 
in the college chapel, Friday evening, 
May 3, was declared by some who at-
tended to have been the most inspir-
ing program of the year. 
Following the scripture reading and 
prayer, Canis Lauda sang, "Little 
Mother of Mine" as a tenor solo. The 
theme of the meeting was a story of 
"The Letter He Was Ashamed Of," 
read by Prof. H. K. Schilling. It was 
a story of the letter Mr. King had 
written to his mother at the time of 
his graduation from college. 
Mr. King had risen to heights of 
success. He had become known for 
his wonderful ability for writing let-
ters, but he always considered this 
letter as the most fruitful letter he 
had ever written. 
After commencement he had sat 
down and written his mother, telling 
her of his love and appreciation of 
what she had done for him. The story 
was told in a simple but effective.man-
ner and at the close of the story there 
were many moist eyes in the audi-
ence. 
Ray Fowler cicsed the meeting with 
a personal appeal to each member of 
the audience to sit down and write his 
mother a letter of love and apprecia-
tion. 
Canis Lauda and James Meade 
sang "That Wonderful Mother of 
Mine." 
LINCOLN COUNCIL VOTES TO 
TAKE IN COLLEGE VIEW 
The Lincoln City Council voted to

also been visited by Superintendent 
Lefler of the Lincoln school system. 
The teachers will receive their pay 
from the city school board. 
The newly elected town board of 
College View maintains that this 
transaction was illegal and has filed 
an injunction suit against the city 
board in the Supreme Court. The date 
for this hearing is not definite yet, 
but in the meantime all regular town 
functions will be carried on by the 
city. 
PROFESSOR WALTHER SPEAKS 
IN CHAPEL 
When Professor Daniel Walther 
said in chapel Monday, April 29, that 
next to his own little country of Swit-
zerland, he liked America best, the 
students showed their appreciation by 
applause. Professor Walther had 
been explaining about his interest in 
and attitude toward America. Just a 
few days ago he had telephoned to 
the court house to see about some pa-
pers. Thinking to make a fine En-
glish speech, he looked up his words 
in the dictionary. After he had fin-
ished telling the clerk what he wanted, 
that gentleman astonished him and al-
so shattered his hopes of passing for 
an American by asking if he had been 
talking English! 
Professor Walther compared the 
great buildings of America with those 
of Europe. In America the most 
beautiful structures are devoted to 
commercial interests; in Europe the 
greatest triumphs of architecture are 
the churches. Mr. Walther does not 
believe that the Europeans are more 
religious than the Americans, how-
ever; he accounts for this difference 
by the fact that in Europe their 
churches were built by a united 
church and state; while in America, 
the churches were built independent 
of the state. 
The Swiss have in history always 
been regarded as mercenary troops, 
but now they do not fight for money 
although many people attribute to 
them this characteristic. While Pro-
fessor Walther was canvassing in 
Scotland, a man asked him where he 
was from. When told that his home 
was in Switzerland, the man said, "0 
yes, the Swiss fight for money." 
"But what do you fight for?" 
"We," and the Scotchman looked 
proud, "fight for honor." 
"Well," replied Professor Walther, 
"I've understood- that people usually 
fight for what they lack." 
Mr. Walther may return to Europe 
next summer, but as he assured the 
students, he will always cherish the 
fondest memories of America and of 
Union. 
STUDE\T APPOINTMENTS 
Doris Lee Ruddle, of the class of 
'29, has accepted a position as teacher

Friend University at Wichita, Kan-
sas. She was graduated from the
