0. A. Hall Presents Mission Progress China Develops Transportation Facilities Connecting with Russia, Burma, and Japan The mission field which presents the greatest opportunities and the greatest problems in service is China, declared Elder 0.. A. Hall, returned missionary from China, in a chapel talk October 7. One is encouraged by the marvel- ous changes taking place there, Elder Hall affirmed. Busses with a hundred thousand miles of bus lines now take the place of the old ox-carts, house- boats, and wheelbarrows, he said. Having foreseen war, China has con- nected herself with the outside world through Russia and Burma, and by an airline with headquarters in Hong Kong, the missionary revealed. Air service and the radio are a big help in the proclamation of the Advent message he declared. Re- gions in the interior which were prac- tically inaccessible before are now reached in a few hours by plane, averred the speaker, adding that from Shanghai the gospel is now sent out by radio to all parts of China every Sunday morning. Although work in all of China was affected materially when hostilities struck Shanghai where the five main offices were located, Elder Hall said, yet the work is being carried on from temporary offices in Hong Kong. Kappa Theta Promotes Friendship in N. Hall Kappa Theta members learned who their "'friendship sisters - for the first semester will be, by drawing names at the first club meeing, October 3. Every girl drew the name of one whose friendship she is to solicit, whose happiness she is to promote, and whose identity she is to keep secret until the close of the semester. The objective of the club is three- fold: to promote friendship and to provide entertainment in North hall, to give opportunity to perform in pub- lic, and to acquaint the members with parliamentary procedure. All new musical talent was featured in the last meeting held October 10. IC D. L. CHOOSES HEADS Upper-division K. D.

They are: Leonard Rog- ers, leader; Albert Bauer, assistant leader; Louise Leeper, secretary; ter- rine Gage, pianist; and Clarence Rens- chler, chorister. The object of the association is to give as many lower division men as possible opportunity to speak in public, stated Professor Rowland, fac- ulty adviser of the group. The up- perclassmen will participate in evan- gelistic field work, several having al- ready begun efforts in Iowa and Ne- braska. The society plans to have a min- isterial association convention in De- cember, said Rogers. Various tnem- bers will speak on subjects pertain- ing to situations met by the evangelist. Membership in the society is open to religion majors and those who are interested in evangelistic work.

Landeen to Lecture Student Body and Faculty on Old World Conditions Co v e r One-Hundred- Mile Radius Soliciting The annual Harvest Ingathering field day for Union college held on October 19 proved successful, when students and teachers went out to solicit funds for the support of the Seventh-day Adventist mission work over the world. Forty-three automobiles took groups of canvassers to towns lying within a radius of one hundred miles around Lincoln. Besides the cash they re- ceived, the solicitors brought back a quantity of canned goods and other produce, and some articles of cloth- ing which were given by persons unable to make cash contributions. Some of the students who were un- able to go out soliciting spent the day working in the village, and then (Continued on page 4) Homier's Male Octet to Sing Here Oct. 25 Master Singers to Present Second Lyceum Course Number The Master Singers, a male octet personally directed by Jacques Hom- ier, assisted by Dean Romick, ac- companist and concert pianist, will give a concert in the Union colleg chapel, the evening of October 25, as announced by Dr. E. B. Ogden. chairman of the special events com- mittee, in chapel Monday. The director, Jacques Homier, has spent years in building a fine col- lection of male chorus selections. Each man of the ensemble is a trained and experienced musician, making possible the interpretation of choral masterpieces in eight parts. The Master Singers appeared on the Union college lyceum series in 1935-36 and are not to be confused with the local KFAB quartet of the same name. The group is endorsed by music clubs and civic organizations through- out the United States. P. B. E.

A get-acquainted program was held October 10. A dialogue giving the history of each woman present was given by Helen Colby and Genevieve Bradley. Marjorie Keene sang. The re- mainder of the program was given over to group singing. PARTIES FILL OPEN NIGHT Private parties, a hike, and games and marches in the gymnasium under the direction of Mr. Habenicht and Mr. Hill constituted the program for open night, October 15. Reservations of the recreation rooms, parlors, spread rooms and browsing room indicated a full social program in North hall. The Knights of 72 hiked to Roberts park, where refreshments were served. BENNETT ENTERTAINS With a program of vocal music, Oscar Bennett, head of the voice department at Nebraska Wesleyan university, appeared in the college chapel the evening of October 2.

Dick, who just happened to drop into chapel that day, has been do- ing some pretty serious thinking. He has come to the conclusion that after January 1, 1939, he and his family will have to give up their nomad lives and cease to be trailer dwellers. Dr. Dick has really been camp- ing on the trail this summer.

Idaho, Montana, Colorado, Wis- consin, Minnesota, the Dakotas, and Wyoming are just a part of the five thousand miles the trailer and the 1929 model Buick have covered since July 3. The Dicks even found some time to take a little vacation with the bears in Yellowstone national park. When they got to Utah, Dr. Dick spent some very interesting days worming material out of supposedly impossible sources. The state historical soc- ieties are his special haunts, but he just glories in hearing some old min- er or trapper tell about the squaws. Dr. Dick seemed almost as glad to see us as we were to see him. He fairly beamed as he sat up on the rostrum in chapel October 12. In the next chapel period, Dr. Dick told us all about the thrill he has (Continued on page 4) Roberts Park Goal of Halloween Hikers The annual Halloween hike, a tra- ditional all-school outing, is planned for Saturday evening, October 29, the destination to be Roberts park, announced Dean Keith, chairman of the social committee, in chapel Mon- day.

Sigma Iota Kappa Elects Term Officers First semester officers chosen for Sigma Iota Kappa in South hall as- sembly room October 11 and 12 are: president, Walter Crawford; vice- president, Paul Whitlow; secretary- treasurer, Cornelius Harris. Tuesday night first ballots were cast for division officers. The next I meeting will be devoted to the com- pletion of the organization of the club. The purpose of the club this is to sponsor enterprises with con- crete objectives, and to promote ac- tivities of definite appeal to the varied tastes of the members of the club. BANDS FUNCTION Sunshine and Literature Groups Cover Lincoln Territory Sunshine bands of the Missionary Volunteer society were organized at the regular meeting in the college View church the afternoon of Octo- ber 15. Bands who will visit periodically such institutions in and about Lincoln as the Veterans' hospital, the Or- thopedic hospital, and the county home are directed by James Pember and Warren Peterson. Activities of the literature bands wil be directed by Theodore Herr, Mary Ohnemus, Doris Wilcox, and .Margie Miller. The sunshine bands will function every Sabbath afternoon after the meeting of the Missionary Volunteer society, and occasionally at other times as well. Business and Economics Form Delta Sigma Pi Delta Sigma Pi, newly formed busi- ness and economics club, organized October 17 with the following officers elected: Wilbert Schneider, president; Gwen Longfellow, vice-president; Eliz- abeth Watt, secretary; and Frank Rice and Genevieve Carpenter, oth- er members of the executive commit- tee. The faculty sponsors for the club are Miss Irma Watt, head of the economics department, and Miss Brickman, head of the commercial de- partment. A constitution was presented and adopted by the members. The pur- pose of the club is to discuss and clarify business and economic prob- lems and to promote an active inter- est in the economics and commercial departments of Union college. ENSEMBLE ORGANIZED The vocal ensemble, a new organ- ization of the Union college music department, directed by Milo W. Hill, recently elected the following of- ficers: president, Ervin Sorensen; vice- president, Rosetta Anderson; publicity agent, Oliver Anderson; property manager, Phyllis Montanye. Thirty-eight members, who have had previous choral experience, are now enrolled in this class which of- fers one hour college credit. Practice (Continued on page 4) BAND MISSIONARIES Society to Study Requirements for Service in Foreign Fields To study the academic qualifi- cations and scholastic attainments of a foreign missionary, the problems of the missionary in the field, and the activities and progress in the mission fields are the objectives of the Foreign Missionary society which was organized Friday evening, stated F. E. Bresee, sponsor of the new organization. Officers for the first semester are: Francis Avery, leader; Pauline Hop- kins, associate leader; Russel Hagen, secretary; Rose Reuer, associate sec- retary; Theodore Herr, chorister; and Hazel Nelson, pianist. The society is to be divided into major bands, of Africa, South Amer- ica, India, Far East, and the Islands, each band having its own leader. These bands will study the back- ground and the progress and present status of denominational activities in their particular fields. The society will meet every sec- ond Friday evening, alternating with the meetings of the Student Minis- terial association, and the individual bands will meet separately at other times convenient to the members. At the time of the society's or- ganization sixty-six charter members joined, and others have pledged their membership since. Membership is o- pen to all Unionites. Definite plans for the improvement of our college campus are being made and will be put into effect as soon as possible. After several unsuccessful attempts I managed to keep Mr. Dunn in one place long enough to find Out what his plans, hopes, and dreams for the campus really are. Mr. Dunn said that before the drouth of late years there were about 600 trees on the campus, but about 200 dead trees have been removed so far this year and it is expected that within the next two or three years it will be necessary to remove at least that many more. As the first step in the reforesta- tion of the campus there has been an order placed for two hunderd new trees. Included in this order are hack- leberry, thornless locust, ash, Chinese elm, and a few weeping willows. The old sidewalks along the west front of the campus are being re- placed by new ones and the men who are doing this work are land- scaping the ground back a short dis- tance from the sidewalk. The shrub- bery around the north arch is to be taken up and the roots divided and reset in other places. About thirty feet of lilac hedge north of the rose arbor will be moved to another place as the ground there has to be lowered and graded for the sidewalk. The rose arbor will be moved this fall, and in the spring the original plans for the rose garden will be carried out as nearly as pos- sible. Mr. Dunn thought it would be an excellent plan if some of the old or The present European situation will be discussed by Professor William Landeen, former president of Walla Walla college, for the first lyceum number.

Speech Club Divisions for Debate, Extem- poraneous and Interpretative Speaking Compose Group- The speech club, divided into sec- tions of debating, extemporaneous speaking, and interpretative speaking. elected as president and head of the debate section, James Kiernan; vice- president and head of extemporaneous speaking, Walter Will; secretary- treasurer and head of interpretative speaking, Ruby Bounds, at its first meeting in the administration build- ing October 11. The section committees, the chair- men of which are to be members of the executive group, are: debating, Paul Kemper, Leslie Jensen, and Celia Johnson; extemporaneous speaking. John Christiansen, Yvonne Olsen. and Leonard Sather; interpretative speak- ing. Kenneth Berry, Ed Jensen, Evelyn Roll, and Ruth Hensley. The club plans that each group will give a program at each third meeting, thereby building up the interest of each section, and giving better op- portunity for discovering speaking tal- ent and encouraging the development of that talent, stated Ivamae Small- Hilts, head of the speech department here and sponsor of the club. new students should decide to con- tribute a few rose plants, or a rare tree or shrub which we do not have. He stated that there isn't a Persian lilac or a hybrid rose plant on the campus and that at least 150 rose plants could be used. We have only one oak and there is a shortage of hedges. Of course, it would be neces- sary to have trees and shrubs that are suitable for this climate. Many evergreens could be used, as they can be planted close to the building where it is difficult to keep grass growing. At present work is being done to level the grounds around the library so it will be ready for seeding in the spring. Workers are also remov- ing dead trees in the back of the campus. The road that goes by the laundry and dairy will be widened, surfaced with crushed rock, and a new row of trees planted along it. After a frost all the spirea on the campus will be trimmed as that in front of the administration building was last summer. Detailed and accurate drawings of the grounds are being made and new trees will be set only where they will not interfere with future improve- ment plans. Before the snow and cold weather comes Mr. Dunn plans to have a hand rail put along the northwest corner of the administration building. So, if you still have a sore place in your heart for that "down-you- go" spot, come and experience the thrill of rounding the "casualty" corn- er in an upright position. Knights Organized; stated Crawford. The regular club schedule will begin Membership Increased the first week in November, after organization is completed. The Knights of 72 organized Sep- tember 27 in the South hall assembly room and the following officers elec- ted: president. Arthur Mazart; vice- president, Boyd Olson; secretary- treasurer, Melvin Binder; sergent-at- arms, Kenneth Wenberg. LeVerne Melendy was reelected as mascot. The sixteen old knights are out- numbered by the twenty-seven new recruits. Out of the original twenty- seven charter knights who were the founders of the club, there are only in the present membership Dan Greene, Arthur Mazart, Dean Hickok, and Edward Jensen. Campus Renovated and 200 New Trees to be Planted BY MAURINE PETERSON W HY ARE YOU in college? Many answers might be given to this question, but perhaps the most frequent one quoted is to prepare for some position in life. Things learned in classes will help to achieve this aim, of course, but as one person has said, "Education is what you know after you forget everything you have learned." Therefore, to be completely educated and prepared to fill a place one must have such things as culture, the ability to get along with people, and initiative. While in college it is just as serious to neglect acquiring these things as to fail to prepare daily assignments. C OOPERATION is a word used so often that it goes right in one ear and out the other. Just the same, it is the basis for any successful project we may undertake this year. Sabbath school, Missionary Volunteer, class, and club or- ganizations all require cooperation from the members. The of- ficers cannot accomplish the purposes of the societies without an energetic membership backing them. Kappa Theta has been known to charge a nickel when anyone refused to perform when asked. The nickel charge may do some good, but willing and cheerful cooperation from each per- son would help more. O RGANIZE yourself, you people who are always losing your books or forgetting your appointments. When you catch yourself going to news writing class without a pencil or posting a letter without addressing it, it's time to organize yourself! Surely it isn't necessary for you to stay up late every night or get up early every morning to study. Organize yourself — make use of that wasted post-dinner pre-work fifteen or twenty minutes. Devise a schedule and follow it -- have a place for everything and keep everything in its place. Organize yourself—the "open sesame" to the door of col- legiate success! W E MEET in the dormitory assembly room each evening for a period of worship, We sing a hymn, hear a scrip- ture reading or a short homily, and stand for prayer. When we sing gladly, freely, out of a full and thankful heart, when we try to apply the wisdom or the feeling of the text or the talk, when we give silent amen to the thought of the peti- tioner—then we worship. Without such an attitude our wor- 1 ship becomes form—empty, blasphemous.

The advertising managers of the staff work hard to cooperate with business friends so that students may know the market and become potential buying power. It is just as fair to ask you to trade with our advertisers as it is for our staff members to ask them to buy ad space in your school news- paper. An unwritten qualification of the successful college student is his ability to observe — places. people. nature, human accomp- lishment, the working of faith, and items as minute and as es- sential as proper advertisements in magazines and newspapers. It has been shown repeatedly that the most versatile individu- als are those who read the ads — regardless of the medium of circulation — a partial argument showing that smart people form the invaluable habit of thorough observation, a proc:'ss college students in general would profit to emulate. Here's the point: Read all the ads. Don't be extravagant, but walk another block to meet our friendly advertisers half way. A. D. H. A.

Eliot (Collected Poems, 1909- 1935), "one of the most important poets of our time," is in every es- sential sense a modern poet—and es- pecially in the sense modern that his work has much of Biblical rhythm and almost barren simplicity of form. To read Eliot as he has written is an elevating experience none should miss. Visibility Good, by E. V. Lucas, sounds interesting. "A collection of delightful fireside excursions," this lit- tle compilation of informalities brings in memories of a custard, a musing on lighthouses, observations on commit- tees, noise, the best people, maxi- mum and minimum, qualifications, etc. Charming, relaxing, smiling—E. V. Lucas, essayist. ai his "essayist." R OBERT L. COOLEY has said that school is an agency to speed up experience, to speed up progress in the student's early years, to aid him in accumulating instruments by which he may live. Do you find that the rush of new experiences in thinking and doing so fully occupies your time that you slight the positive influence you might have toward the support of spirituality, school standards, and school tradition? Ours is a Christian school based on the high standards of the Seventh-day Adventist denomination. Unless we maintain these standards, our school has no ground for existence.

Sensible, concrete exercises 3 0 3 make this practical book more than one of pretty theory. The attractiveness of this book catches our eye immediately—The World As I See It, by Albert Ein- stein. The contents of this book, brought together only at the con- tinued urgings of his friends by a man whose principal genius is that of modesty and clear thinking, deal variously, in a style and language comprehensible by any educated layman, with topics designated: Scien- tific, Judaism, Germany 1933, Politics and Pacifism, The World as I See It. The volume is a compilation of articles, addresses, letters, and mani- festes of Albert Einstein, reflecting his own philosophy and attitude to- ward life and the world of affairs, and is dedicated by him to "an ap- preciation of the German Jews"— his own people—in the recent inter- ests of whom he has made great per- sonal sacrifice. From the next shelf we pick up Joseph Jastrow's Keeping Mentally Fit. Section titles like these re- veal somewhat the temper and taste of this practical work of lay psychol- ogy: The art of being happy, Shall we suppress—or let go? Do you know how to sleep? "Be good, sweet maid, and let who will be clever!" Is there a cure for clinging vines? The jazz of exaggeration, Beauty, behavior or brains, The psychology of the lip- stick, Take a relaxative! Let's look at just this one from a- mong the 300 group--The Story of the Gypsies. by Konrad Bercovici. For years the most popular writer on this subject, and a man who has lived and then taken the road with the gypsies, the author tells in fascin- ating, intimate language of the origins, customs, and folk culture of these people—their work, their songs, their dreams.

King, an airman would have called the weath- er - soupy, - but to a sailor it was just plain dirty. When I was awak- ened by the ringing of the telephone at 6:30, it was to look out into a dark foggy morning with a slow drizzle of rain coming from a muggy sky—a rather disheartening day to start one's career as a sailor. After I had dressed speedily and not without some feeling of excite- ment. my father took me down to the Lake Carrier's association hall where I was registered in that union. I had lived in Duluth most of my life and had seen the boats going in and out of the harbor—I had even been on a few of them,—but I will never forget the feeling of pride and ex- pectancy which came over me as we rounded the corner of the Pittsburg Coal office and looked upon the ship that was to be my home during the next few months. My dad drove off, leaving me standing alone on the dock. I wait- ed for a moment to gather courage, and then approached the boat with a determined stride and a look of con- fidence I was far from feeling. As I neared her bow I became keenly aware of her mammoth proportions. From the dock where I stood to the top of her pilot house was fully six- ty feet. The effect of this mas- siveness was to make me feel of even less consequence than before. I fin- ally reached the after end and some- how managed to climb the thirty feet of ladder, burdened with my dunnage and my doubts as to the success of the venture that lay before me. There were four men around the No. 3 hatch in various positions in- dicative of a sailor's informal dis- cussion. I was told to ask for the first mate, but instead I merely in- quired for the mate. "Which one do you want?" one of them flung at me. I didn't know. One of them, a short paunchy fel- low dressed in khaki culored overalls, stood up and spat to relieve the con- gestion caused by a large wad of to- bacco in his right cheek. He was florid of face and a bleary pair of eyes looked into mine as he asked me if he, being the third mate, could be of any service. It was all right with me, so he took my union book and told one of the fellows to show me to my quarters. I was assigned Dale Hill Pauline Hopkins Evelina Jensen Frank Rice Esther Smith Leonard Webb WASHINGTON, D. C.

I changed to my working clothes and came up on deck. I was ill at ease in the shiny newness of my over- alls, and my shoes seemed to scream that they had never been worn before. However, they were not to stay that way long. The second mate, a little Norwegian, motioned to me and to the other deck hand to follow him. We went aft and down the ladder to the dock. As the boat moved slowly ahead, we were to shift the cables that held it from spile to spile. This shifting of the boat was necessary in order to let the coal rigs empty the boat of its burden of from nine to ten thousand tons of coal. If one has never handled one hundred fifty feet of steel cable, part of which is in the water, one can't realize the strength and technique necessary to drag it from one spile to another. Usually ore is loaded in about four hours, but that night nothing went right. It was six a.m. before we cleared from the channel for Lake Eric. It had begun to rain during the night, but I was protected from the weather by the top of the dock which projected out over the runway where I walked with the cables. That is. I was protected from the rain until the boat moved to a place where there was a hole in the canopy over me. Then I was completely drenched and my clothes had lost their newness. It was a dirty and tired sailor that went to his bunk that first morning. At Ashtabula I had the experience of sweeping the cargo hold for the first time. The mate gave each of the deckhands, including me, a wire push broom and sent us down into the hold to sweep as fast as the big Hewitts removed the ore. (The Hew- itts are the large scoops used for loading ore and coal.) Haste is nec- essary because any ore that is left in the hold must be hoisted up in buckets. We had to keep a sharp lookout while we worked in order to keep from being hit in the head with fifteen tons of scoop bucket. The first time I did this job I did not ac- complish much because I was in mor- tal fear of being killed. Taking on coal is a very unpleas- ant experience, as I found out in Cleveland. It is a dirty job, to begin with. 'out when a soft powder coal is loaded during intermittent rain squalls it becomes exceptionally fil- thy. One cold wet night in Novem- ber, of which I am thinking especi- ally, we had three deckhands come aboard and then quit within an hour's time. When the fourth one stayed I was tempted to think that he didn't know any better. In spite of the many unpleasantries that came our way, I felt when I had collected my last pay check and left the old ship freezing in the ice that I had left a friend. The Willis L. King had taught me something of what it was to work for a living with my hands, and life aboard ship start- ed thinking processes which eventu- ally brought me to old Union. 1SORENSEN SPEAKS Recent Emperor Showed Interest in Adventist Achievements Explaining the interest of the Ethi- opian emperor in the work done for his country by Adventist educators end doctors, Elder M. E. Sorensen, returned missionary from Africa, lec- tured October 8 in the college chapel. Large gifts were donated by the emperor to help build schools and hospitals, stated Elder Sorensen. When the depression made it impos- sible for him to give a promised amount, a new hospital already built, but not running, was turned over to the Adventists, he added. Rather than let the imperial house• hold goods be looted by the Italians during the recent war, the emperor allowed his soldiers to take what they wanted, before evacuating the palace, explained Elder Sorensen. By purchasing from the soldiers, Elder Sorensen was able to display the royal china ware, gold ware. and some medals. * Remember, five subs will get your ticket to the Clock Tower dinner in November.

(Continued from page I) turned in the cash earned to the Ingathering fund. This year the students pajrticipated in field day activities of their own volition. No state groups or other organizations were used to promote interest and cooperation. Those who helped in the Ingathering program on the field day did so because they wished to have a part in forward- ing the world-wide work of the Sev- enth-day Adventist denomination. Taking into consideration the good weather, the helpfulness of village church members in loaning their auto- mobiles, the large turnout of stu- dent solicitors, and the total receipts for the day both in cash and in pro- duce, it is generally felt that the Harvest Ingathering field day was a success. rAllE I Subscribe I Now CLOCK TOWER SUBSCRIPTION College View, Lincoln, Nebraska For the enclosed one dollar ($1.00) please enter one annual subscription to: Name Street ......... .......... ...

H. Minchin, '32, 401 Upper Serangoon Rd., Singapore, S. S. Mr. Minchin is now principal of the Adventist seminary in Singapore, as well as educatonal secre- tary of the Malayan union.] I am writing this in a city of Cam- bodia, French Indo-China, by the name of Phom-Penh, and I must tell you how I came to be here. I will begin with the time we left Singa- por.: to visit the schools in the north- ern missions of the union, and to help in the establishing of one or two new About twenty miles traveling takes us off Singapore island onto the main- land, in the state of Johore, whose Sultan has made himself famous by his various matrimonial adventures. He was recently divorced from his Scotch wife by the simple method of an- nouncing the fact three times. This is a wealthy state planted largely with rubber, and has many mineral resources. The Japanese have been working extensive iron mines, but since their invasion of China they have not been in good repute in these parts. Before reaching Kuala Lumpur we went through the very old town of Malacca. The Dutch and Portuguese struggled over it, and it was later taken by the British. On a hill be- ;hind the town is an old church, built in the early sixteenth century, which once held the bones of St. Frances Xavier, the great apostle to the Far East. It is a place of wonderful in- terest to the historically minded. Brother Ritz, the director of the mission, and Dr. Waddell, our Bang- kok doctor. were at the train to meet us. Our school in that city is flour- . ishing, the present enrolment being about 140. We made plans for the strengthening of our training work here and met for several days with the teachers and workers who had Dick Caravans . . . (Continued from page I ) been getting out of poking around in old documents and reliving the old days. He even compared the lang- uage of the trappers to a mixture of Missouri, Kentucky, and good old savage. He was just on one of his flying trips, however, and on Monday he pulled the trailer out and started for Topeka. Kansas, Columbia and St. Louis, Missouri, and all other points where he happens to land. Dr. Dick has a special leaning to- ward Kansas, so he will be in La- Harpe, Kansas, in several weeks and will stay there until his sabbatical leave of absence is over. It is a good thing that most of the material in this article came from Mrs. Dick and not from Dr. Dick, because he is just as absent-minded as any other professor. Last Thursday, Fred Sofsky walked up to Dr. Dick and told him very politely. "I know where you were yesterday." "That's funny-I didn't see you a- round," Dr. Dick replied skeptically. "Well, your hat is still over in the stacks in the college library." We will be glad to have you back though, Dr. Dick, absent-minded or not. Girls' Basketball Teams to Play Regular Games Girls' basketball was organized into seven teams Thursday evening, Octo- ber 6, when Mr. Ingvald Hansen pre- sented plans for developing a girls' basketball league. The initial practice took place in the gymnasium Sunday, October 9. Future practice periods are scheduled for Sunday, Monday, and Wednesday evenings. Plans are being made for the girls to play basketball in the gymnasium on Saturday nights. It is hoped that an academy girls' team will be organized, making an eight-team league, Hansen stated.

She was only 26, and she and her husband had been in the field only a few months. But she said that she was ready to lay down her life if necessary, and she had given instructions about her baby. VsTe buried her the same evening she died. A men's quartet sang "Beautiful Isle of Somewhere" and - Jesus, Lover of My Soul," her fav- orite hymn. A French lady is look- ing after the baby, a bouncing lad four months old with light hair and blue eyes. This woman begged Broth- er Bentz to leave the child with her for a while at least, but doubtless he will send it back to her people in France when it is old enough to travel. Brother Bentz wants to stay on with his work here for a while -it least. He has barely learned language yet, and says he has noth- ing to go home for. And so I will end my story. It is just one of thousands that could be told. It is one page out of a book. We like our work, and somehow I can feel growing in me a deeper feel- ing and regard for the suffering of millions of poor souls about us. Yes, you have them at home too, but somehow the teeming millions out here seem so hopeless in many respects. They are often hard to reach, but beneath there is a heart that is often calling for a little sympathy and un- derstanding. We will be happy if God can use us to lighten the bur- dens that weigh so heavily on thous- ands of these poor people out here.

We were interested to meet our Karen worker who had come from the borders of Burma. He is the first "foreign missionary" that Burma has sent out. He is a splendid man and is doing good work among the Karen people who live on the border. He is meeting with considerable op- ; position and is living where the arm ; of the law does not help him much. It takes him several days to get back to his post. The Doctor has had remarkable suc- cess at the clinic during the short time it has been established. The thousands of patients who come there are giving our work a good name throughout the city. It is an inspira- tion to see the faces of the patients light up as the Doctor comes into the room. Our next objective was to reach Touranne in French Indo-China, on the shores of the Pacific. After a lot of difficulty we reached the Mekong river which is about two miles wide where we had to cross it, and since it was flood time a swift current was running. Two men and a woman pad- dled us a mile or two up stream, hug- ging the bank, and then set out into the current which carried us about a mile below where we were supposed to land on the opposite hank at a French town, Savannakhet. Finally we made it. and spent the night at a French rest house. And believe me, it was good. You can preach how you will about the evils of imperial- ism and the wickedness of European nations grabbing colonies for them- selves everywhere.
