XX UNION COLLEGE, LINCOLN 6, NEBRASKA, AUGUST 30, 1945 ,k9 NO. 18 11 Summer Graduates t' 4, Miss Hyatt Honored "It was my senior advisor at the university who recommended my name to Pi Lambda Theta," explained Miss Helen Hyatt, as she told me about her election to the National Honorary Educational Society. Of twenty women students chosen for the honor, Miss Hyatt and Miss Larson of Oak Park Academy were two. Miss Larson has received high honors in the English department. The choice of members for Pi Lambda Theta is based on scholarship and personality. Pi Lambda Theta is the counter- part of Phi Delta Kappa, the men's educational fraternity. Its aim is: To foster professional spirit and an abid- ing interest in educational affairs, to- gether with high standards in scholar- ship and professional training. It seeks also to develop a real joy in educa- tional service through social inter- course and cooperation. Taken from the letter accompany- ing the invitation is this sentence: "We believe that the profession of education offers the highest possible opportunities for service, excepting only motherhood, to which it is so closely akin, and that our own pride in our work will help to bring to it the dignity and recognition it de- serves." At the initiation banquet, of which Miss Hyatt was the speaker, model keys of paper on gold-colored ribbon were placed around the neck of each candidate. Miss Hyatt has ordered her key and expects to have it in the near future. Miss Hyatt taught school in South Africa for thirty-five years and has reached her goal of assisting in train- ing teachers here at Union. This summer Miss Hyatt has been working on her Master's degree at the Uni- versity of Nebraska. Benton Joins Faculty Mr. Robert L. Benton has accented the invitation of the Union college board to join the faculty in the capa- city of graduate laboratory assistant. Mr. Benton will take the place oc- cupied by Mr. John Christensen. Mr. Christensen will be at Emmanuel Missionary college next year where he will teach one college and three academy chemistry classes. Mr. Benton graduated from Union in 1932. Mrs. Benton is also a Union graduate, receiving her B.A. from Union in 1937. For the past two years, Mr. Benton has been teaching science and mathe- matics at Glendale Union Academy. He has taken graduate work from the Universities of Tulsa, Oklahoma, and Denver. Rules governing the contest are as follows: Contestants may submit as many essays as they wish, but no more than one prize will be given to any one contestant. The essays should be not less than 200 words or more than 350 words in length. Essays must be neatly type- written, double spaced, on one side of the sheet only. Standard size 8 1/2 by 11 inch paper must be used. Three Judges chosen from the English faculty, the editorial staff of the Clock Tower, and the student body will examine each eligible entry. Essays will be considered from the standpoint of the ideas, or- iginality of presentation and literary merit. The contest will close at mid- night September 15, 1945. Announcement of the winners will he made during a chapel period within one month of the close of the contest. Prizes will be awarded in the form of scholarships to be applied on the first semester's account dur- ing the school year 1945-46. The essays submitted become the property of the English de- partment, which reserves the right to publish all prize win- ning entries in the Clock Tower. No essays will he re- turned to contestants.

There seem to be quite a few pecularities in this King's English of ours. Let's take the word dunce for ex- ample. It was first coined to ridicule the disciples of John Duns Scott, one of the most able of the Middle Age schoolmen. His students did not write their essays in the classical Latin of that day, so it was esteemed a mark of intellectual progress to break with them. Doctor Scotus, familiarly called Duns, upheld the writings of his men. The pupils were called Duns'mcn, and the word came down to us as dunce. Our Teutonic ancestors had a rea- son for the heat of these so called Dog Days. The brightest star in the sky, the dog star, Sirius, was high in the heavens in July and August. Since this star was so bright, the ancients naturally supposed it to be extra hot. When the Dog Star and the sun blended their rays together, the result was a period of intense heat—Dog Days. Once upon a time ambition meant going about for votes. This suggests the meaning of another political term, candidate, meaning to the Romans white-robed. It seems that the Romans had a custom by which candidates for office wore white. A butterfly literally is a "a fly of butter-color." The butterflies were first named in the species which showed itself butter-colored as it flew. We extended the name to every othcr kindred species. A tree was not al- ways a woody plant of considerable size. Its earliest meaning was merely a piece of wood, and this definition ' still survives in such expressions as roof-tree, cross-tree, and whiffle-tree. Kappa Theta Party Crowning social event of the sum- mer for the girls of North hall was the Kappa Theta party held July 27. At worship the announcement was made that all girls were to be on the porch at 9:30 dressed to represent songs. Classes and study period pro- ceeded as usual. The dormitory was quiet. Then, at 9:30 the porch swarmed with girls dressed to repre- sent, "Alice Blue Gown," "That Silver-Haired Daddy of Mine," "The Surrey with the Fringe on Top," "School Days," and "Bicycle Built for Two." Valerie Ware, with a sheet wrapped around her, was "I Ain't Got Nobody." Norma Hausel, her Crop originally meant the top of a plant. We notice the relationship when we compare it to our modern verb "to crop." A pagan was a person who lived in some remote country village. When Christianity spread over the Roman Empire, the inhabitants of the cities were the first to be converted. The pagans ( country dwellers) not hearing the new doctrine, adhered to their ancient divinities. Gentlemen were first designated as men who did not need to work, or who were disabled and could not work. A blonde was a person with blended hair; e.g., one having hair of a mingled, gray color. Sentence once meant opinion, and our word period goes back through both French and Latin to the Greek word meaning circuit. In Latin, a test was an earthen pot used for trying metals. George Washington was the first American to leave a written record of the word used as a verb, to test. A plantation once referred only to a colony of men. We still speak of planting a colony. The ancient Norsemen believed that a giant's skull was poised skill- fully above earth and sea as the heavens. Four strong dwarfs were stationed at four corners to uphold. the sky. The dwarfs' names were Nordi, Sudri, Austrix, and Westri; and we still call the points of our compass after the names of these dwarfs, North, South, East, and West. Historians tell us that our language reached perfection several centuries ago. Up until that time it grew. Since then it has merely changed. Yes, word history is an interesting story. clothes awry, was "Careless." Alberta Korgan carried a pine cone with a streamer tied to it to represent "Trail of the Lonesome Pine." Vera Baker wore a rose and the number 35 to depict "Rose of No Man's Land." Lucille Crispers in ordinary dress, stood still and did nothing. She was "Without a Song." Prizes went to: Betty Jaynes, who, wearing jeans, a bathing suit and a towel around her neck, and a sun burned face, gave us her version of "The End of a Perfect Day;" Ellen Widmer and Elsie Opp who wore a gray blanket with a cardboard horse head and a wagging broom corn tail to depict "The Old Gray Mare;" and Coramae Thomas, who, rushing to and fro singing "Rock-a-Bye-Baby," represented "Russian Lullaby." North Hall Alterations The record-breaking overflow ex- pected at North hall is causing build- ing alterations. The girls' dormitory in its present state can house 182 girls comfortably. At the present date Miss Rees has received 228 room res- ervations and expects more. After some consultation between President Cossentine, Mr. Hartman, and Miss Rees, it was decided that the north end of fifth floor, which has been used as a storeroom, can be cleared and remodeled to house eight girls. Looking forward to the day when the home economics department will be moved to another building, that department is being moved to the basement and the rooms which it oc- cupied are being remodeled to allow rooms for twenty-two more girls. As the reservations come in for the biggest school year North hall has ever known, Miss Rees says: "We will find a place for the girls if we have to put up tents. We just need to know how many girls so we will know how many little tents." Education Department There will be a change in the de- partment of elementary education for next year. Mr. E. M. Cadwallader, head of elementary education and principal of the demonstration school for the past four years, has been granted a leave of absence for a year to study toward his doctorate. Miss Helen M. Hyatt, who has been supervising grades seven and eight, will teach Mr. Cadwallader's classes and direct elementary teacher training. Miss Hyatt is well qualified in this work. During the time that Miss Hyatt was in South Africa she served as director of teacher training at Helderberg College. Mrs. Viola Christensen' Welch, who was graduated from Union in 1934 and who has been supervising at the demonstration school this sum- mer, will be the supervising teacher of the seventh and eighth grades and principal of the demonstration school. Ralph Wolfe Word was received some weeks ago of the death of one of the students attending Union College last year. This is the first opportunity we have had of passing this sad news on to our readers. (Ed.) Ralph Arthur Wolfe was born in Fort Madison, Iowa, December 4, 1920, and died at Bakersfield, Calif., July 9, 1945, at the age of 24 years. He was the only son of Carrie and Guy Wolfe. In 1930 he moved with his parents to Goldsberry, Missouri, graduating from high school at this place. rn 1939 he came to California and worked at the Azusa Sanitarium until the school year of 1940, when he en- tered La Sierra college. This past year he attended Union college as a fresh- man taking the theological course. He has assisted in several evange- listic efforts in Missouri and in Cali- fornia. He was especially gifted along musical lines, and this talent was used to assist in the services. He leaves to mourn, besides his father and mother, three sisters, Nel- lie Opal Thrcadgill, his twin sister; and Mrs. Helen L. Schneider, both of Los Angeles; and Mrs. Maurine Ortner of Shaftcr, Calif., and many other relatives and friends. The funeral services were con- ducted by H. H. Hicks, assisted by Z. H. Coberly, in the Shafter Seventh- day Adventist church. He was buried in the Shafter Cemetery. Victory Celebration On August 15, Union college cel- ebrated the Japanese surrender with a full holiday from classes and work. At eleven o'clock a special service was held in the chapel. After the doxology Elder Isaac offered a prayer of thanksgiving for victory and Doctor Woods made some timely remarks. Doctor Hause turned our minds back to the bomb- ing of Pearl Harbor and the horror that we all felt at that time. "Our problems are not over," he said, as he discussed the moral and economic problems to be faced in the reconver- sion period ahead. Elder Rowland gave biblical ad- monition concerning our attitudes in times such as these. The congregation then sang two timely hymns, "All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name," and "Savior, Like a Shepherd." Doctor Woods gave the benediction.
