SCHOOL PORTRAYS CUSTOMS OF CHINA Difficulties of Evangelistic Work in Old Cathay Are Presented In Talk and Dialogue The members of the Union College Sabbath school, under the direction of Pastor Hughes, were taken on an imaginary trip to Cathay last Sabbath morning. The first number of the pro- gram consisted of a song by six children dressed in Chinese costumes. The words and music of the song were Chinese, the subject being the words of Jesus, "Suffer little children to come unto Me." This song was followed by a talk by Pastor Hughes on the beggar class, of whom, he said, there are literally thous- ands in every large Chinese city. He explained that beggars are so well organ- ized that they are able to demand alms. Each city has its guild leader with his assistants, who receives exaggerated fees from the members, he said. These beggars are accustomed to work on a sense of exaggerated pity, he said, such as putting out the eyes of their slaves or children, breaking limbs, and keeping wounds open. It is hard to know when to pity them, he continued, since some will simulate blindness or physical deformities. Yet many of them are long- ing for the light, for something better, he said. Pastor Hughes then told of how a little beggar boy had once asked per- (Continued on page three) Mission Bands Are Organized The South American and China mis- sion bands met Sabbath afternoon for or- ganization. The following officers were elected for the South American band: sponsor, Pastor R. J. Roy; leader, Clinton von Pohle; assistant leader, Margaret Reynolds; secretary, Luella Coleman; pianist, Irene Schmidt. A program com- mittee of three members, Doris Kirstein, Henry Preston, and Vernon Becker, was also elected. It is the purpose of this band to stimu- late an interest in the mission work be- ing done in the various countries of South America and to acquaint the students with the existing needs of the field. Problems which actually come to the missionary as he enters the country for the first time, begins his work among the people, and lives with them, will be discussed. Im- portant geographic features will also be pointed out from time to time. The band will meet in Professor House's classroom each Sabbath after- noon at 2:15. An invitation is extended to those interested in this field to join the band. (Continued on page tour) U. C. ACADEMY GIVES PAGEANT "Washington of Young America" Given by Academy; Assisted by Church School AUDIENCE PLEASED Money Raised by Its Presentation To Be Used for Equipment for the Church School The pageant, "George Washington of Young America," was presented in the college chapel Thursday evening, by stu- dents of the Union College academy, as- sisted by the church school, and spon- sored by the Home and School asso- ciation. The money raised by its presenta- tion will be used for equipment for the church school. The program was well at- tended by both students and residents of the village, who immediately characterized it as one of the best entertainments of the year. The prologue to Episode I consisted of Young America, dressed in the Stars and Stripes, seeking advice of Liberty, who comes in with her hands bound. "Where does a free land turn, but to its own people?" asks Liberty. "Must I turn to war?" questions Young America. "You must," answers Liberty. Young America calls Patriotism, who gives her a shield upon which are the words "Pro Patna," which in turn was given to War. In the distance, taps are sounded. The curtains lift upon the scene of the evacuation of Boston. General Washing- ton is seated at a small table beside an army tent, writing letters. A sentinel paces back and forth. Mrs. Washington enters with her negro servant. She safely (Continued on page two.) Weekly Review of World Affairs BY HAROLD LINCOLN UNION'S OFIFIEU Are you satisfied with your present educational, economic, or spiritual achievements? If so, you may classify yourself as unprogressive; for the individual who ceases to improve or who has no desire to grow in any one or more of these fields has virtually tagged himself as an "old fogey", even though he may still be in his teens. Don't place yourself in the "good- enough" class; there are too many people in those ranks now, and none of them ever becomes a captain or a colonel—they all remain privates. If your answer to the above q'lestion is "No!", then you are in a position where Union College can and will help you if you will give her the opportunity. In fact, Union's only mission in this world is to be of real help to those who are seeking im- provement in method and manner of service. And as you improve yourself in some chosen field here at Union, you will also be forming social contacts which may be of greatest importance to your future. To those of you young men who expect to live at South Hall I extend a cordial invitation to unite with our family, which is happy part of the time and working hard most of the time. You may not get everything you ask for, but you will get a great many things that are good for you if you want them. Living together in such a large group is much like play- ing a game: you have a lot of fun as long as you play the game according to the rules; but when you don't play on the square, the game is robbed of all Measure and enjoyment. So, come along next year, choose a pleasant room in one of the residence halls, and let Union help you prepare for some- thing better in the service of humanity. DEAN C. W. KIME.

VI COLLEGE VIEW, LINCOLN, NEBRASKA, MARCH 24, 1932 No. 26 TOUR PLANNED FOR VOCAL ENSEMBLE Sacred Concert to Be Given in Lincoln S. D. A. Church The Union College Vocal Ensemble, under the direction of Stanley Ledington, with the assistance of Esther Lorntz- Ledington as soprano soloist, is plan- ning to make a much more extended con- cert tour this spring than they made last year. They will be leaving College View on April 1 to give a sacred concert at the Des Moines church Sabbath morn- ing, April 2. Saturday night they are ex- pected at the academy at Nevada, Iowa. to furnish a number on their lecture course. Minneapolis, Minn., will be one stopping place, and concerts will pos- sibly be given at Hutchinson and Austin, Minn. Mr. Ledington says that the vocal en- semble has an unusually large repertoire which contains both sacred and secular numbers. The programs will be varied, consisting of mixed choruses, men's and women's choruses, duets, and solos. Tuesday evening, March 22, a pro- gram was broadcast over radio station tion WCAJ. (Continued on page three) PROFESSOR SMITH SPEAKS AT VESPERS Individuals Who Do Worthwhile Things for God Have Fixity of Purpose to Do Right "Isaias 50:7 was penned especially for young people, and particularly for Sev- enth-day Adventist young people of these times," declared Professor W. I. Smith, associate-secretary of the General Con- ference Educational department, in the Friday evening vesper service. "We are living in strange times which try men's "'faith. Men find that they do not believe what they thought they believed. God is calling for strong men and women. Isaiah has lived on because he was loyal and put his trust in God, while the kings in whose reigns he wrote have been forgotten. "The one outstanding characteristic of each individual who has done worthwhile things in the cause of God, was a fixity of purpose to do right. David declared that his heart was fixed. Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile him- self with the king's meat and drink. Joseph, as we are told in the Spirit of Prophecy, determined, while being carried as a slave into Egypt, to be true to his father's God. In later years we still find men with that same determination. John Bunyan, who himself said that he seemed naturally inclined to do wrong, felt the call too. Re- sponding to this call, he began his new work, but was soon cast into prison.

That is the name that brings pleasant memories to any young man who has had the privilege of liv- ing there. Of course, all that one re- member.; about South Hall will not be sugar coated.- Perish the thought and don't waste time to give it a decent bur- ial either. But remember this, that the really pleasant things about the old dorm- itory so far out-number the unpleasant things that they win by a knock-out. Consider for a moment what a boys' dormitory is like. In it there are good fellows and fellows whose natural in- clinations are not so angelic, hot tem- pered ones and coolheaded ones, honest- to-goodness Scotchmen and just plain twight-wads. And for all these fellows of different temperament to live peaceably together with themselves and with a dean who is probably pretty sensible, and therefore at a loss to understand some of the dizzy episodes that occur from time to time, is a rare accomplishment of diplomacy. To be sure, there is some one stationed on each floor to preserve law and order. (Continued on page four) Party for Miss Gosnell Given by Business Force Mabel Gosnell was given a surprise party on her birthday by workers in the business office Wednesday noon. Cake and fruit jello with whipped cream were served. Those present were: Mabel Gos- nel, Luella Coleman,. Henrietta Reiswig, Opal Andrews, Irene Ortner, Ruth Wiest, Hester Mathes, Roy 'Gardner, William Hanson, H. L. Keene, and James Oss. Sunshine Band Entertains With Songs and Stories A group of young men of Union Col- lege gave a program to the children at the State Orphanage Sabbath afternoon. Sigrid Olson had charge of the meeting and of the song service, which is a regu- lar feature of these semi-monthly meet- ings conducted by the Sabbath School. The children acted out the story of "Mos- es in the Bulrushes" under the direction of Maurine Peterson, who made the story unusually interesting. Arna Marley sang two numbers which were well liked by the children. Jeanette McKibben was the next speaker, and told the story of Bet- ty, the little girl who gave her shoe to the bird for a nest. The invitation of Pope Pius for Pro- testants to return to the Roman Catholic faith has been turned down by the exe- cutive committee of the general conference of Seventh-day Adventists. In resolutions, the committee called attention to differ- ences in doctrine between the two churches, and added: "It is perfectly ap- parent, even to the casual reader, that it would be just as impossible for us to be- come members of the Roman church as it would be for the pope to become a mem- ber of our church, inasmuch as our doc- trines are so absolutely at variance." George Eastman, seventy-seven, multi- millionaire, founder of the Eastman Ko- dak interests, shot himself to death, ex- plaining in a note' that he felt that his work was done. He was one of the na- tion's wealthiest men, as well as one of the greatest philanthropists of modern times. Sophia Van Buskirk Speaks At Gospel Workers' Seminar Sophia Van Buskirk was the speaker at the Gospel Workers' seminar Friday evening, contrasting Christ's home at Nazareth with the home of Jezebel in Samaria. Mary's influence upon her household, and her love for Jesus were brought to view. A picture of the in- fluence for evil which Jezebel exerted over her husband, Ahab, and her daugh- ter, Athaliah, was vividly portrayed by the speaker. A musical reading was given by Jean- ette McKibben, with Ruth Johnson at the piano. "Serenade Summer Night," a trumpet and clarinet duet, was played by Earl Gable and George Thornton, ac- companied by Clinton von Pohle. On figures from forty-eight states, a report was submitted to the senate that 6,000,000 persons were unemployed in the United States. The new dictatorial government of the dapper young Henry Pu-Yi, heir of the ancient Manchu emperors, was reported tottering in Manchuria as insurgent forces attacked and capture Pu-Fu, a city south- west of Harbin. A woman poet was appointed acting president of the all-India national con- gress, and thus became the leader of the Mahatma Gandhi's civil disobedience campaign in India. She is Mme. Saro- jini Naidu. Anti-prohibitionists lost their motion to bring the Beck-Linthicum resolution be- fore the House. (Continued on page four) FRENCH CLUB HAS VARIED PROGRAM Magician Performs, and Members Relate Amusing Stories An interesting and amusing program was presented to the members of L'Echo de Paris Wednesday evening, March 16. In a brief dialogue, William Whitson and Wallace Nethery, the president and vice-president of the club respectively, depicted an amusing incident in a cafe when there was a slight misunderstand- ing of expressions. Philip Bulgin, the school magician, per- formed an amazing feat when he caused realistic appearing snakes to come squirm- ing forth from a tiny piece of some in- flammable substance. Various members participated in the next part of the session, in which amus- ing stories were related. The prize for the best story went to Lydia Sonnen- berg. The remaining time was spent in play- ing the game "Prince of Paris." Those who regularly attend the meet- ings of the French club report that they always enjoy the half-hour spent in the French atmosphere; and a welcome is extended to those who have not yet found time to attend. MESSIAH IS TOPIC AT CHURCH HOUR Three Men Present Life of Christ, Work of Holy Spirit, and Christ's Coming Sermonettes by three young men of the Union College homiletics classes replaced the customary sermon at the church ser- vice last Sabbath morning. Arthur Bietz, the first speaker, dis- cussed briefly the life of Jesus, His ex- ample, and His call for disciples. Some of the characteristics of Chirst's life, he pointed out, were love, faithfulness, earn- estness, complete self-control, and pati- ence. Faithfulness was a characteristic of Jesus both in His ministry and in His home work, the speaker said. Speaking of Christ's example, Mr. Bietz pointed to Him as a student of the Word of God. Christ was a man of prayer and meditation, he said, never too busy to find time to pray. Much of the laxity in the world today is caused by the lack of prayer, he declared. The spirit of for- giveness displayed by Christ is some- times missing from the lives of professed Christians, the speaker said. "We must open our hearts to the call of the Lord," Mr. Beitz declared. "Hol- man, the great artist, realized the per- sonal responsibility of the individual to Christ's call when he intentionally omitted the handle of the door in his famous picture, "The Light of the World," which (Continued on page two) Professor Nesmith Speaks onTragedy of Short Cuts By THE REPORTER Professor Rollin Resmith, principal of of the Union College academy, was the speaker secured by the officers of the Young Men's club for the last meeting of the club. The subject, presented with the usual dash of Mr. Nesmith's wit, hu- mor, and wisdom, was the Tragedy of Short Cuts. Mr. Nesmith spoke of the emotional ef- fect which the arrival of the young men had had upon him. The picture was like noth- ing if not like that of the cows coining in through the old barn door back on the farm, one turning this way, another that, each to its particular stanchion where food awaited. Mr. Nesmith hoped that his talk would furnish some food for thought. He kindly omitted from his picture the animalistic way in which the young men crowded and mooed. "It is characteristic of man that he use the short-cut method," said Mr. Nes- mith. "We are all more or less unwilling to pay the price required for true suc- cess. The siren voice of the short-cut lures us on to final failure. We ride our (Continued on page three) Lesson Outlines Promote Interest in Prophecies Bible workers from the Gospel Work- ers' seminar were glad to learn last Sab- bath that the lesson outlines which they leave with the people each Sabbath are receiving careful study during the week.

W. I. SMITH GIVES M. V. TALK Reviews Denominational Colleges And Tells of Qualifications of Missionaries Professor W. I. Smith, associate sec- retary of the Educational Department of the General Conference, and Claude Con- ard, the associate secretary of the Treas- ury Department of the General Confer- ence were the speakers of the Village Missionary Volunteer society, Sabbath afternoon. Their talks reviewed the Sev- enth-day Adventist colleges of North America, qualifications of a missionary, and the missionary duties. Professor Smith's talk reviewed the many colleges of the denomination in North America and the situation of each school. He urged young people, while attending college, to put their efforts, minds, and hearts into every hour as a determination to do their appointed parts in the forwarding of God's work. He encouraged students to attend college even though it might be necessary to work their entire way, since it brings an atmosphere of encouragement and one which results in the development ana success of a college, and the advance- ment of God's work. "And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a wit- ness unto all nations and then shall the end come," read Mr. Conard, the next speaker. "It is college students who are put in the missionary field. Every mis- sionary is selected—then tested. He stated that it takes three to four thousand dol- lars to send a missionary family to the field of China or India. The missionary is selected by the Secretary of the Gen- eral Conference, who judges by the ap- pearance, interest, qualification, and abil- ity. Each individual selected is required (Continued on page four) Ben Hassenflug Ordained Elder Ben L. Hassenflug, one of the Homil- etics students, who has been visiting with the Cortland church every Sabbath this winter and who was elected as the church elder, Sabbath, March 12, was ordained to that office last Sabbath with Arthur Kock as second elder. Pastors House and Langenberg officiated in the service. After this service Pastor House spoke on the subject of the "Inner and outer significance of the Lord's supper." Each member silently consecrated his life anew and took part in the communion service which followed. Others who accompanied the group from College View were: the Misses Rosa Lee and Martha Hassenflug, Lucile Miller, Mrs. B. L. House, Messrs. L. Fer- guson, Wendell Graham, Fred Walther, and Lester Trubey. PAGE TWO THE CLOCK TOWER Mrs. Hahn Writes To Miss Hiatt From Costa Rica (Continued from last week) I tell you we all felt light footed about then. We had to go about ten blocks before we reached the safest part of the city. I wasn't frightened. I can't remem- ber feeling anything. I had no desire to tarry by the way though. Several shots were fired, but none of them hit us. At each corner the patrol would cry "Quien Vive?" (who lives) and we would answer saying the present presi- dent's name. We were glad to get to the Chapman's home. We had dinner and were just feeling comfortable when a policeman pounded on the door and said that they were going to bombard the cuartel with cannon and that we had five minutes to leave that section of the city. We each grabbed a quilt, our coats, and a little food, and started west towards the campo. The streets swarmed with refugees. A Span- ish gentleman met us and offered us the hospitality of his home for the afternoon. His house was out of range of the shells. That night we went back and slept at the Chapmans, as another order came saying that the government would give the people until noon Thursday to leave the city. We slept more peacefully than at any other time, though the firing con- tinued all night. It was rifle and machine guns only, and the Chapman's house has walls about two feet thick, so we felt fairly safe. Next day we made rolls of bedding and put up food and started for the country at about 10:00. At 1:30 that after- noon they signed a peace agreement and we went home pronto. We were thankful to find our house as we left it. Nothing had been stolen. I guess the firing had been so hot that the thieves had not dared to steal anything. It takes a good deal to stop a thief here. If one visits Costa Rica with gold teeth in his head it is best to keep one's mouth closed, else some thief will get the gold teeth. Friday I took Floyd to the doctor. They took two X-ray pictures, located the steel (it was part of a bullet) and this morning they took it out. It took them about fifteen minutes to find it and of course he had to have ether. The cut BUSINESS STAFF Noble Chase - - Pres. and Business Mgr. Fred Lee - - - Secretary and Treas.

Minchin - - - - Editor-inChief CHARACTER There is some truth in the statement that character is a by- product. Too often, those who deliberately set out to build, hatch, weave—or however it is done—a character for themselves, develop into insufferable prigs, of no particular use to anyone. Perhaps the best type of character is that which is gradually and unconsciously acquired as a result of faithful performance of life's obligations. Characters are not machine made; they are grown. "Consider the lilies how they grow!" But characters grown in the hot-house are not the best type either; they are too rank and spindly, unable to stand the weather. Perhaps that is why January resolutions are only about ten per cent effective. It ;is expected that on the night of December 31 a brand new character should spring up, like the fabled dragon's teeth. It would be much better for one to go ahead and struggle courageous- ly with his diary or his over-sleeping habit, and let the character take care of itself. It probably will. That would not mean less attention to character building. It would mean less of morbid introspection and more consideration of positive duties. Union College is fortunate to have returned missionaries in its student body or on its faculty each year. These men and women who come fresh from the world field are the ones who form the connect- ing link between Union and the world's needy fields. A talk such as Pastor Roy gave in chapel not only makes students thankful that they were born in a land of enlightenment, but also makes them desire to share that light with those degraded people of South America who do more than exist, not because they live, but because they suffer intensely. Few women of the United States know what their sisters in other lands endure. Few men know the animal-like life of drudgery which their brothers lead. But the men and women of Union College are brought into close personal contact with suffering humanity by seeing it portrayed and hearing of it from the lips of those who have given their lives in the service of the less fortunate. Seeing these needs, other Unionites are inspired to go, to give, to teach, and to live. With such purposes in their hears, Unionites be- come less introspective and work with a gleam of hope shining from their eyes. THE CLOCK TOWER OTHERS is about an inch long just over his ear. I never knew before that a little piece of steel could cause so much grief. Floyd was a brave little fellow and didn't cry when they gave him the ether. He count- ed like a good fellow, first in English and then in Spanish. He is making pictures now and seems to be feeling fairly well. Poor little tot, he has had bad luck since we came to Costa Rica. The people here are very much dis- satisfied with the peace agreement. They gave each of the rebels a goodly amount of rice and beans and set them free! The three men who led the revolt were turned loose and promised protection by the government. So you see they are very nice to their rebels in these parts. The people were hot with wrath when they heard about it next morning. Crowds gathered in the streets, and when a rebel went by he was hissed at. When all is said, though, there were very few in- jured in comparison to the number of bullets fired, about one hundred dead and wounded. Many houses are literally rid- dled with bullets. We have five marks on our house and ten in our back fence. Feb. 26, 1932. Floyd's head is still swollen, but the wound is nearly healed. We are all hap- py and things seem very peaceful. We are afraid of another revolution in May when the new president takes his office, but we hope not. We had started a new series of meetings, and on Tuesday they being again. I'm the organist. And it makes me busy to go every night. I hear lots of Spanish, though. Love, Maybelle. MESSIAH IS THEME OF CHURCH SERVICE (Continued from page one) represents Christ knocking at the door The Master requires that we give Him our all. The son of a yoke-maker, in commenting upon Christ's reference to His yoke, explained that yokes were not made balanced, but that one side was heavier. Christ's yoke is like that, the man explained, and He always takes the heavier end. "When John Knox returned to Scotland upon hearing the news that the Reforma- tion was failing there, the people were overjoyed," declared Chester Barger, "Edinburgh greeted him with open arms. Everywhere the cry 'John Knox has come! John Knox has come!' brought crowds into the street. Men left their homes, their stores, and jailers even de- serted the prisons to greet the great Scot- tish Reformer. If the coming of a man, however great he may be, can have such an effect, what will happen at the com- ing of Christ?" -The Bible says 'Be ready' for Christ, not 'get ready'," he ponited out. He then told the story of a visitor to a certain school, who promised that the next time he came he would bring a prize to the pupil who had the neatest desk. One little girl determined to win the prize, but because of her natural untidiness, her classmates told her that it would not be enough for her to clean her desk only at the beginning of each week, or even only at the beginning of each day. Final- ly, she decided that she would ''just keep it clean." In the same way, the speaker declared, we should always be ready to meet the Lord. Ralph Cash spoke on the Representa • tive of the Master, the Holy Spirit, and the Lord's covenant, the ordinance of baptism. He pointed out that it was the Holy Spirit which inspired the writing of the Bible. Its work for the individual, he stated, was to reprove of sin, and to instruct. U. C. Academy Gives Pageant (Continued from page one) passes the sentinel by giving the counter- sign, "Saint Patrick." As she is leaving, General Sullivan enters. A woman who comes to implore the aid of General Washington for her dying husband gives the tidings that Howe and his men are leaving. General Washington dispatches the sentry to help her. A sailor is sent on an errand and General Washington is seen talking to a soldier. Just then the sentinel enters to say that the British ships have lifted anchor and are evacu- ating Boston. To the strains of "Three Cheers for the Red, White, and Blue" the curtain closes. The interlude consists of the reading of the Declaration of Independence. Defeat makes her claims to Young America but as the voice of Washington is heard, Courage undauntedly proclaims to all, "Hark!

A negro butler brings in a caller, Secretary Thompson, who presents to George Washington the summons to the presi- dency. After the retirement of Secretary Thompson, Martha Washington voices the sentiment of herself and her hus- band when she says, "When the war was finished, I hoped we should be suffered to grow old together, in solitude and tran- quillity. That was the dearest wish of my heart." George Washington's patriotism and love for his country, his modesty, his distrust in his own wisdom, and his un- selfishness—disregarding his own wishes, ur 23u5ine55 anb rotmionat irtenbt but instead putting his country first—are all clearly intimated, as is also Martha's pride and confidence in him. With Martha's exclamation, "How presumptious I am, Your Excellency, George Washing- ton, first president of the United States of America!" they join hands, and the curtain falls while the orchestra plays "Old Folks at Home" and "My Old Kentucky Home." At the call of Young America, the Civil Virtues, represented by young girls, honor Washington, Jutice brings to the altar treaties of peace, Prosperity the sheaf of wheat, Patriotism the laurel wreath, War the sword in the sheath, and Liberty the ballot. As these divine Virtues withdraw to the side of the plat- form, the curtain opens for Washington's farewell address. The Dark Angel, extinguishing the sparks of light from a candle, symbolizes the death of Washington. The sorrow and grief associated with it were felt in the song from behind the curtain, "Mas- sa's in de Col', Col', Ground. - Young America calls the Civil Virtues —Justice, Peace, Liberty, Prosperity, Vic- tory, Courage, Patriotism, and Faith. These are joined by the girls represent- ing the thirty-five states admitted since Washington's day. They wave their flags as a salute to Young America and toss them on high shouting the name of Wash- ington. Uncle Sam joins Young America and stands by her side as the audience rises, and, led by Canis Lauda, sing the "Star- Spangled Banner."

Spanish Mission Band to Study the Various Fields The Spanish Mission band, which will hold its first regular meeting Sabbath afternoon, is starting out on a program of study which will include all the Span- ish-speaking mission fields. The life of the people—their customs, religion, vari- ous influences which exert a force over them, etc., as well as what the Seventh- day Adventists are doing in their work among the natives are some of the topics to be considered. Other points that will be brought in for discussion will include the preparation one who is planning on mission work should make in this country; the change' in habits which is sometimes necessary in living among the native peoples; and some of the best ways of approaching the natives in taking them the story of a loving Saviour. An invitation is extended to all to come to these meetings of the Spanish Mission band, to be held each Sabbath afternoon at 2:15 in the Bible room. Hanhardt Speaks at Quidnunc Speaks on the Privilege of Being An American Citizen Sunday night Prof. A. M. Hanhardt spoke at the meeting of Quidnunc. Mr. Hanhardt has spent a number of years in Germany and Europe, making him well qualified in his knowledge of his subject: What it means to be an American citi- zen from the viewpoint of a foreigner, or, what the Europeans think of us and our rights as citizens of the United States. Mr. Hanhardt told how he recalls his days in school when he studied civics and swelled up with pride when he read that our government protects its citizens. He called attention to the fact that other nations do the same. The fact that the United States is a great nation and is recognized as such by Europe gives its travelling citizens more advantages and protection than citizens of countries of lesser importance receive. The American has no trouble when traveling unless it is self-inflicted. The European admires the American tourist largely because of of "banksters - as well as gangsters. Along with compliments, hardly any conservative newspaper fails to criticize America, her institutions, and customs. They look askance at our lawlessness, as they really have reason to. They think we are naive. They wonder at our de- light in making records, and our worship of superlatives. "When we travel we realize the power that America holds towards the accomplishment of good-will throughout the world," Mr. Hanhardt said. "If we knew what American citi- zenship means and sensed America's moral responsibility and influence we would do our best to stem the tide of lawlessness that is so prevalent today. It is a privil- ege to be an American citizen because of America's outstanding position in world affairs, the freedom and protection she offers her citizens, because it is still a land of 'room enough,' and leaves the way open for those who would excel. - Georgie Dell Sutherland has been ill the past week.

CHATS ON HOME- MAKING Directed by MISS MINNIE OLSON Experience, as well as studies in sci- entific laboratories, has demonstrated that milk is the only food for which there is no effective substitute. It is, how- ever, not quite a complete food. It does not contain sufficient iron to meet the needs of the growing young over a pro- longed period. Young are born with a store of iron sufficient to tide them over the nursing period. Considerable experi- menting has been done, with the addition of various foods to milk, to see which is the best in making good its deficiencies. Various percentages of wheat with milk have been found fairly satisfactory. The protein of milk is of high biological value. It contains all the known vita- mines but is not uniformly rich in these. Whenever milk is pasteurized the vitamin C is in great measure destroyed. It is un- safe to feed infants exclusively on pas- teurized milk for many weeks without giving a suitable amount of fresh, raw fruit juice to furnish vitamin C. For this purpose orange juice or tomato juice are in great favor among physicians. In some regions of the world the peo- ple eat large amounts of sour milk. Pas- toral nomads, as a rule, live largely on sour milk. Pastoral nomads, as a rule, live largely on sour milk. It is clearly demonstrated in human experience that a diet, the principal part of which is sour milk, is likely to promote greater physical well-being and greater length of life than ordinary diets of other types.

At this point in the talk, two Chinese beggars entered the chapel, a blind wo- man, led by a small boy. In the Chinese conversation which followed, the child asked Pastor Hughes for money and re- ceived a coin. Not satisfied, however, he did not leave before making a second plaintive appeal and obtaining another offering. To illustrate the fact that it is not wise to give a large gift to one of these beg- gars, Pastor Hughes related the experi- ence of one missionary's wife who once gave fifty cents to one of them. This was a fortune to the beggar, and the mission- ary home was soon besieged by a crowd of beggars, the first one having marked the door as a sign of his success there. The remainder of the program was de- voted to the introduction of a number of Chinese characters. The Bible worker who was with Brother Smith when he was killed by bandits was represented by Hel- en Arnbrecht. The small beggar boy again entered, this time speaking in Eng- lish, describing' his troubles. The next character was impersonated by Harry Craig. Muriel Fleming represented a teacher who had come to the mission from the Church of England. A Chinese ordained worker next appeared, in the person of Ralph Cash. Gladys Munn represented a nineteen- year-old girl who had escaped to the mis- sion after being captured by bandits. The young woman, who is now living there under an assumed name in order to avoid recapture, plans on being baptized soon. Wallace Nethery appeared as the lan- guage teacher, who, though not a mem- ber of the church as yet, is an interested reader of the Signs of the Times. Rosa Nixon, dressed in Chinese holiday dress, represented a girl student who had been healed of tuberculosis in answer to pray- er, after doctors had pronounced her case hopeless. Chester Barger appeared as a worker from another district, who, in character- istic Chinese fashion, had asked the mis- sionary to select a wife for him among the young women at the mission school. Calvin Gordon entered as a well-educated Chinese pastor, who reads Chinese, Ja- panese, and English. A few days after this man heard a sermon on tithe-paying, he brought two hundred dollars in back tithe to the mission. This pastor possess- es the gift of healing in a very remark- able way. Mrs. Hughes, with a small baby strap- ped on her back, represented a Chinese woman who had worked for the Hughes family. As the final number of the pro- gram, the group sang a Chinese hymn. The music as well as the words, were Chinese. Professor Nesmith Speaks on Short Cuts (Continued from page one) ponies so long that at last we can't walk for ourselves.

South Hall Prayer Bands Are Real Influence for Good By JAMES GAITENS What would you answer if you were asked: To bear arms for our nation in time of war? To go to the theater for a movie? Why you do not eat the bacon with the eggs? What is your ideal of true Sabbath keeping? These are just a few of the questions which groups of South hall men in their prayer bands have studied to know how they would answer. And the answers are not reached without evidence of a sur- prising firmness in which each holds his conscientious convictions. But there are other bands which spend their twenty minute period each Tuesday evening in reading an inspirational book; and there are still others which spend their time in personal efforts for not only their own members but for their fellow students. It is a high ideal that guides the organization of prayer bands in South Hall. For those young men who care to offer their rooms as meeting places and to be themselves each responsible for the leadership of a band need only the ap- proval of the dean to organize with those who may wish to join. Then when one band becomes too large it is a simple so- lution to choose from it another leader and leave the members free again to choose which band they may wish to at- tend regularly. Besides the bands there is the regular worship conducted by Pro- fessor Kime for any who may not care to attend a prayer band. The benefits that come from attending the South Hall prayer bands are real. A guiding principle is worked out by which a life may be ordered more perfectly for the Master. A new inspiration is gained from the best of authors. And best of all, prayer band groups of South Hall have seen more than once a fellow student for whom they have worked and prayed find his place in the life for his Saviour. These are some of the things that make the prayer bands, though very quietly so, a real influence for good in the life of every young man in South Hall.

BEN SIMON SHOWS MURAL PAINTINGS Mayor Urges Public to View Caricatures of Washington Delineations of epochal events in the life of George Washington in the form of mural paintings were unveiled recently by Mayor Frank Zehrung in Ben Simon & Sons' first floor display room. Caricatures of the great democratic aristocrat in action carry the theme of the Washington Bicentennial throughout twenty-eight seven-foot paintings hung about the mezzanine balcony. As dimmed lights brightened to dedicate the paintings, representatives of patriotic societies, state officials, university profes- sors and Boy Scouts viewed the tribute. Joe Simon, presidennt of Ben Simon & Sons, presented the paintings to the pub- lic as a fitting observance of the two- hundredth anniversary of the birth of George Washington. James H. Pickering, creator of the mur- al, explained that "a touch of humor makes us all enjoy history." To warrant his point, he pointed to the prologue mural, depicting George II of England reprimanding the stork for blessing rath- er belligerent colonists with bouncing babies. Mr. Stork, unabashed, saw a light and presented Mr. and Mrs. August- ine Washington with a baby boy (Feb. 22, 1732), a "born leader." There begins Mr. Pickering's interpreta- tion of the life of the First President. He depicted Mary Washington, the mother and teacher; Washington, the boy general, the horseman, the visions of a sea life, the boy surveyor, the adventurous young man, the social lion, the marriage to Mar- tha Custin, the gentleman farmer, the general, and lastly, the president. Shown also are the Boston Tea Party, Paul Revere, "Molly Pitcher," and the Cap- ture of Trenton. Mr. Pickering departed from Manuel Leutze's famous - Washington Crossing the Delaware" theme to show the gen- eral and troops landing after the hazard- ous crossing. On through the inaugural of Washing- ton at the nation's White House, the mur- al culminates with six-foot portraits of George and Martha Custin Washington. "I certainly urge all Lincoln people, es- pecially school boys and girls, to visit the Simon store and see these murals," Mayor Zehrung said. "They are more than interesting, a bit humorous and yet instructive . . . A fitting tribute to the great American." OUTLINES PROMOTE IN- TEREST IN PROPHECIES (Continued from page one) instead of 27 A. D. for the time of Christ's baptism. It was, of course, then explained that it would require from the first day of 457 B. C. to the last day of 26 A. D. to fulfill the time period, and that since the period opens later in the year it must run over into 27 A. D. The study presented last Sabbath in two neighboring homes by Hazel Breb- ner and Bessie McCumsey dealt with the subject of the millennium together with the events marking its beginning and it; close. Mrs. Rosenthal, of College View, gave a study in a nearby section of the city. The group was taken to and from the homes visited by Mr. and Mrs. Lars Christiansen. Highly satisfactory progress has been made toward working out peace between Japanese and Chinese forces in Shanghai, after the meeting of the various peace delegates. Authoritative sources under- took the peace settlement as follows: 1. hostilities will cease; 2. Chinese will not advance; 3. and Japanese will retire to the settlement from settlement border roads. President M. L. Andreasen spent a few days in Chicago attending the annual meeting of the North Central Association of Universities and Colleges. Would-Be Teachers Dread First Trial "How could I ever get up before a class and teach a poem!" These were my thoughts as the time neared for me to begin my practice teaching. Perhaps it would be easier if I could be by myself, but to have the regular teacher there, too, would make it doubly hard. The time for my teaching kept drawing closer. How could I ever do it! Possibly I should drop the class and take some- thing that would not be such a strain on my nerves. Three days until the time set for my teaching! Two days! How the time dragged. One day! At last the fatal day has arrived. One always likes to do his worst task first, and I was glad that this class was the very first thing in the morn- ing. I could then draw a sigh of relief and enjoy the rest of the day. It seemed that I just couldn't stand be- fore that class and display my inferior knowledge. But somehow I gained enough nerve to get through the first class period. I was not quite so fearful the next day. Perhaps by the time the six weeks are over all fear will have vanished — at least I hope so. Whether the addition of $14 per capita to the paper currency now in circulation will serve to stimulate business, start spending, and speed up the wheels of in- dustry, or go scuttling into hiding to mildew along with the money already there, is the biggest issue of an economic nature before the American people today.

The spirit that pervades Union College pervades South Hall. South Hall is only a part of Union College. Then South Hall must be responsible to a large ex- tent for the spirit of the college. It is true that South Hall is not a home for angels. It probably won't ever be such a home. Boys are going to have their problems, troubles, and trials regard- less of where they might happen to be. This is true of South Hall boys. This goes to show South Hall is the home of those that are learning and not those that have already learned. South Hall does offer many spiritual advantages. The two years that I have spent here have revealed many such ad- vantages. Naturally, I would think of the regular morning and evening worship. where students sing, and hear read por- tions of the Scripture. Its regularity does not take away the spiritual benefits. Not once is there a meeting that is not be- yen with prayer, not even the weekly club meetings. The weekly prayer bands could next be mentioned. The same boys that you meet in classes and on the campus at play, meet in prayer bands on bended knee. Students many times, for their own personal good, meet and study out per- plexing problems from the Bible and the Testimonies. For the past two years a foreign mis- sionary has resided in South Hall. Cer- tainly boys can and do profit from the spiritual experiences of such workers. Then, many young men come from homes of God-fearing parents. It is only natur- al to think that that same spirit is car- ried into South Hall by many such young men. From early morning to night students are reminded of their duties to others. At the close of the year I have heard many young men stand in worship and express their sorrow for having to leave those with whom they have been as- sociated in South Hall during the year. Certainly, South Hall members are knit together by the existing brotherly love and Christian influences. Remember, South Hall is the place where many victories have been won by where Christian leaders of today. Judson Miner, who was in school here last year, was a week-end visitor. Carl Johnson, South Hall, spent the week-end at his home in Blue Springs. Mrs. William Woodruff from Califor- nia is here caring for her sister, Mrs. Lickey. Mrs. Glenn Stout has gone to Cali- fornia to join her husband who is work- ing in a dairy there. Mrs. W. A. Woodruff, of Los Angeles, California, is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. T. M. Lickey, and sister, Mrs. Lillian Pogue, of College View. Clarence Anderson, a former student of Union, who is now employed by the Western States Manufacturing Company, was a visitor at Union during the past week. Opal Andrews accompanied by her sis- ter, Betty Lou, motored to Omaha Sun- day, where they spent a few hours with their sister, Ila, who is attending the Uni- versity School of Medicine. Canis Lauda has accepted the position of Superintendent of Schools at Pleas- ant Dale, Nebr., for next year. Pleasant Dale is about nineteen miles from Lin- coln. The following P. T. A. officers have been elected for the College View divi- sion: Mrs. Milton Transchel, president; Mrs. Merritt Robson, first vice-president; Mrs. R. A. Harrison second vice-presi- dent; Mrs. William Gove, secretary; and Mrs. B. L. Hooper, treasurer. MISSION BANDS ARE ORGANIZED (Continued from page one) The officers of the China mission band are: leader, Pastor Hughes; assistant leaders, Daniel McAdams, Carl Specht; secretary, Geraldine Davis; chorister, Robert Whitsett; pianist, Ruth Beem. It is the purpose of the China band to provide practical information for prospective missionaries, rather than merely to furnish entertainment. Topics to be studied in the future meetings were chosen by the members from the fields which particularly interested them. This band will meet at 2:15 on Sab- bath afternoons in Professor Ledington's studio. S. H. LIFE BRINGS ACTIVITY AND PLEASURE (Continued from page one) These unfortunate indivduals are called monitors. Now, Mr. Webster has a very nice definition for the word monitor: one who warns or admonishes. Admonish means to reprove gently, so according to the best dictionary definition a monitor has the right to reprove gently. Now, a gentle reproof is a - swell idea" but when some "wise guys" start a wrestling match after 10 p.m., when the dormitory is sup- posed to be wrapped in sheets as well as darkness, this gentle reproof stuff is not so wonderful. Don't get the wrong impression. The men of South Hall are not a bunch of roughnecks, and their outbursts are us- ually just the escaping of a little pent-up enthusiasm.

The Young Men's club, which meets every Thursday evening, and the officers of this club usually succeed in presenting an interesting program each week. The dormitory also has a fine radio and a phonograph. In fact, life in South Hall is so interesting time never drags. It is not a Utopia—just a mighty good place. PROFESSOR SMITH SPEAKS AT VESPERS (Continued from page one) stead of losing courage during the twelve years of his imprisonment, he spent his time there in writing that famous book, The Pilgrim's Progress, which has been translated into more languages than any other book except the Bible. Who can measure the influence of John Bunyan's life through the means of this book? "John Wesley, the founder of the Wes- leyan movement, was also a man of God. While in college he was a leader in a small prayer band and missionary society, which was called the "Reform Club" in derision. After his graduation Wesley spent two years in missionary work among the Indians of Georgia. Return- ing to England, he spent much time in preaching. He traveled 250,000 miles and preached 40,000 sermons. It is estimated that at the time of his death he had 500,000 adherents. The earnest desire of little Mary Jones for a copy of the Scriptures led her to save for six years, then to walk twenty- five miles to the house of the bishop of the district. Her distress upon hearing that he had no Bibles left, and her joy when he was able to obtain one from a neighboring bishop, so impressed him that he later told her story before a confer- ence of ministers in London. The appeal which he made in behalf of Bibles for the poor led to the founding of the British and Foreign Bible society in 1804. Since that time four hundred million copies have been printed and cir- culated, and all because of Mary Jones' determination to possess a copy of the Scriptures." In conclusion, Professor Smith stressed the fact that by being loyal to God the young people of today will be led by Him into the place of service. "We are told in the Desire of Ages," the speaker said, "that God never leads His children otherwise than they would choose to be led if they could see the end from the be- ginning. Let us be loyal to this belief, to ourselves, and to our God." PASTOR HOUSE IS CHAPEL SPEAKER Internal and External Evidences Given to Prove Inspiration and Truth of Bible ''Internal evidence of the inspiration of the Bible may be found in fulfilled proph- ecies," declared Professor House in his chapel talk Wednesday. -There are many books found in the Bible which stand as witnesses to fulfilled prophecy. Daniel 7:7 prophesies the fu- ture history of the world. The prophecies of Isaiah foretold the downfall of Baby- lon, which prophecies have already been fulfilled. The prophet Ezekiel prophesied the destruction of Tyre, and now it is a barren rocky shore. It was predicted that the Jews would reject their Lord, they would be scattered into all parts of the world, and yet remain a distinct class of people. Proof of this may be found in the fact that the Jews are to be found every- where. - The speaker continued by giving ex- ternal evidences to prove the truth of the Bible, and one of the greatest examples of this may be found in the changed lives of men. The lives of Martin Luther and John Wesley stood as witnesses to the fact. When the cannibals hear the great message their lives are changed. "Although not all the people in the world are Christians, the Bible has always been preserved. The Bible has been hand- ed down from the Greek, Latin, and Hebrew manuscripts and all of them tell the same story, which proves the ac- curacy of the Bible. Some of the ancient manuscripts of the Bible are now found in England, France, Italy, and in Wash- ington, D. C. "The archeologists have been an im- portant factor in proving the truths of the Scriptures," said Professor House. "Through their discoveries of the ancient ruins of Biblical places and the tablets of legends, facts have been found which compare exactly with Bible facts." PROFESSOR W. I. SMITH IS M. V. SPEAKER (Continued from page one) to take a very thorough medical exami- nation. His health must show the very highest vitality. "There are approximately 3,200 stu- dents enrolled in our colleges, consisting of medical students, nurses, vocationals." Professor Smith encouraged every in- dividual to realize from day to day, though the way may not be quite clear, that the Lord will show him the work he is best suited to do. The special music consisted of a piano solo by Mrs. C. W. Kime and a vocal solo by Harold Schmidt. Weekly Review of World Affairs BY HAROLD LINCOLN The vernal equinox marking the officia opening of spring will occur one day earlier this year. Usually the time of the equinox is between the twenty-first and twenty-third of March, but the interposi- tion of the twenty-ninth day in February pushes it forward this year. It will come later each March until 1936. The nations' law forces are still baf- fled as to the whereabouts of the Lind- bergh baby. Clue after clue has come to naught.

Girls' Club Debates On Brick and Cement Walks The ever present question, "Should Union's brick walks give way to cement ones?" was the subject of the heated de- bate at the meeting of the Young Wo- men's club Wednesday evening. In spite of the able defense of the brick walks by Madge Rosenthal and Fairy Pettey, the argument of the affirmative speakers, Grace Hackett and Gladys Munn, pre- vailed. The judges were Ellen Swayze, Hazel Heinzman, and Jeanette McKibben. Some of the points presented in favor of new cement walks were that it would give the school a more modern appear- ance, that heels of shoes would need to be replaced less often, it would make walking easier, and would eliminate the danger of students losing their temper after stumbling on a broken brick. The negative side, however, pointed to the aesthetic value of the old walks, and the history attached to them. Brick side- walks, these speakers declared, do not encourage hasty walking, therefore there is less danger of falling on wintry morn- ings than if one were walking on a slip- pery cement walk.
