EXPERIENCES TOLD R. A. LYMAN SPEAKS 
Isn't it queer how some people so 
often wish to be something they are 
not? Even small children are that 
way. One grown man confided to me 
that when he was too young to re-
alize such things didn't happen he used 
to build air castles about the beauti-
ful clothes he would wear and the 
good food he would cook for his ad-
miring husband when he became a 
beautiful woman. 
Now, I never told anybody; but sec-
retly I had often wished that I might 
have been a boy. Men were strong 
and really did things in the world. 
To develop big muscles I used to work 
as hard as I knew how. My mother, 
wishing to rear a lady, not a tom-boy, 
looked somewhat troubled at my ela-
tion over wearing a shirt and a pair 
of overalls, though she said little. 
One reason encouraging my desire 
to be a boy was that I was neither 
beautiful nor small—two qualities my 
ideal woman possessed. With seven 
brothers and sisters anxious not to 
come one whit short in breaking down 
false ideas that any of us might ac-
quire regarding our personal appear-
ances. I grew up knowing that I was 
tall and stringy and awkward. I was 
assured that my head was too small, 
my mouth too large, my nose too long. 
More than once was I reminded that 
my neck, which wasn't big enough 
around, but the normal distance in the 
other direction, resembled well the 
crane's. When nobody was looking I 
used to slip to a mirror and peep in, 
hoping I might appear a bit better 
than I imagined, but the reflection en-
couraged me none. How could I ever 
amount to anything and look like this? 
It was different with men. One of 
Harvest Ingathering 
Goal Nearly Reached 
In checking up the Harvest 
Ingathering returns for this year 
we find the total so far to be 
$861.99. This is exactly $597.38 
more than the total amount 
turned in last year and $233.65 
less than the total for 1920, 
which was the biggest Harvest 
Ingathering year in Union col-
lege history. 
Perhaps by the end of the 
year the singing bands will have 
eliminated the $200 deficiency 
and leave us only $33.65 be-
hind that greatest year. 
There is a definite will "to 
do" manifested by the best ele-
ment in Union college, which 
fact strongly encourages interest 
in worthwhile projects. 
Westcott-Turner Rites 
Celebrated October 28 
Former Students Are Married at 
Boulder, Colorado 
Miriam Westcott, daughter of Mrs. 
Myrtle Westcott, of Loma Linda, 
California, and Carlos Turner, son 
of Mr. and Mrs. R. B. Turner, of 
Ethel, Missouri, were married on the 
evening of October 28 in the parlor 
of the Boulder-Colorado sanitarium. 
Pastor W. M. Andress performed the 
ceremony in the presence of two 
hundred guests. Miss Mae Goodale 
played as the guests arrived and 
Miss Esther Goodale sang. 
The bride, who was given away by 
her brother, Dr. Emerson Westcott, 
wore a gown of white satin with a 
floor-length veil. Iris Lawrence, the 
maid of honor, was dressed in blue, 
and the bride's two sisters, who were 
bridesmaids, wore pastel shades. 
Harold Becker was the best man. 
Following the ceremony, there was 
a reception at the home of Mr. and 
Mrs. C. A. Skinner. Mrs. Turner 
was graduated here this spring and 
for two years was dietitian at Union 
college. Mr. Turner attended Union 
last year. 
The class in institutional cookery 
entertained the ladies of the faculty 
at a buffet luncheon October 31. 
the best-loved fellows in the near-by 
college was tall, homely, and had 
scarcely any chin; a high church offi-
cial was reminiscent of a popular car-
toon character; a prominent evangel-
ist made such amusing grimaces when 
he sang that I always sat where I 
could see him in meeting. They were 
all about as great as anybody I per-
sonally knew and also nearly as home-
ly. But then, men's features certainly 
didn't determine their success. 
That was several years ago. Since

Students are Urged to Get Spiritual 
Equipment to Win Souls 
Pastor W. E. Read, president of 
the British Union conference, spoke 
at Young People's Missionary Vol-
untary meeting November 27, relating 
mission experiences in the different 
fields from Iceland to Africa. 
In speaking of Abyssinia, Pastor 
Read said that the people there do not 
like to have their country called Aby-
ssinia, for this is only a nickname, 
the correct name being 'Ethiopia. 
Missionaries in Africa are endeav-
oring to get the people there to change 
their opinion of the white man, but 
the task is difficult, the speaker ex-
plained, because of the oft-expressed 
native conviction: "The white man 
come down here and bring with him 
his God in a little black book, but he 
bring the devil in a big black bottle." 
Pastor Read urged the students to 
get a spiritual equipment which will 
make them real soul winners for the 
Master's kingdom. 
"When the cat is away, the mice 
will play," was the astute observation 
of a long-ago sage. But he didn't 
trouble himself to find out, or at least 
to record, what the cat does when the 
mice arc away. Normally, the mice 
take for granted that it is a benefac-
tion to be free of cats, and do not 
bother themselves to discover the avo-
cational pursuits of their most rapa-
cious enemy. 
But this is not the scholar's correct 
attitude. The true scholar, we halie 
been informed, can never be comfort-
able until he has relentlessly tracked 
all data on every curious and out-
of-the-way, problem that has con-
fronted him. The things that hap-
pened to scientific theory as a result 
of Sir Ike Newton's meddling nosey-
ness into the personal habits of an 
apple furnish an example of the bene-
fits that result from a handsome mix-
ture of investigation and hypothesis. 
Wherefore is born our concern in 
what cats do when the mice are away; 
what policemen do when the offenders 
are all jugged; what teachers do when 
the students are all (theoretically) ob-
serving a profitable study session. 
The Union college gym on Wednes-
day evenings provides an excellent 
laboratory for objective research, furn-
ishing these significant data on a typic-
al problem: At this time and place a 
group of college professors (except 
those whose wives failed to remind 
them of their appointment and except 
those who forgot where they had start-
ed when they set out) show up for a 
weekly recreation period, constituted 
mainly of volley ball. They come 
trooping in with disgracefully irregu-
lar punctuality — although every one 
knows the hour—garbed in various 
patterns of formal, semi-formal, and 
al fresco gymnasium costumery. Pre-
sently the players for sides are chosen 
College Anticipates 
A New School Song 
A twenty-five dollar prize 
contest to sponsor a new school 
song has been voted by the 
Union college board, according 
to announcement recently made 
in chapel by President Andrea-
sen. The purpose of the con-
test as stated in the official an-
nouncement is "to encourage 
and enliven school spirit among 
the students." To this end (for 
the words and music) the follow-
ing prizes will be awarded: 
first prize, $15.00; second prize, 
$5.00; next five, $1.00 each. 
The winners of the contest, 
which will close January 10, 
1935, will be determined by a 
student vote directed by the 
faculty. 
Prof. J. N. Anderson Is 
Y. P. M. V. Speaker 
Former Missionary to China Reveals 
Ourselves as Others See Us 
Emphasizing the facts that there 
are many fine things which might be 
said of the Chinese and that they have 
acquired absurd ideas about Ameri-
cans, Prof. J. N. Anderson, pioneer 
missionary to China but now a facul-
ty member at Union college, addressed 
the Y. P. M. V. audience Sabbath 
afternoon. 
The speaker told of a Chinaman's 
humorous description of an American 
dinner. "In America," the Chinaman 
said in bewilderment, "they serve the 
beefsteak in big hunks instead of 
ground up. They bring it in on a 
large platter and then instead of eat-
ing with chopsticks they use a knife 
and prongs. They also serve the 
women first. When they finish, the 
men take the women and jerk them 
around over the floor while crazy 
music is played." 
The mission band has announced a 
contest, the purpose of which is to 
bring the missionary roster up to date. 
Those entering the contest are to 
watch denominational publications 
for names of persons who have at 
one time attended Union college. The 
one securing the most names will re-
ceive a reward. 
Surely a boy thinks the world and 
much more of his mother. She is 
to him in his tender years a goddess. 
She molds his thoughts and expres-
sions while the mind is yet flexible 
and innocent. She puts the first prayer 
on his baby lips. She plants in his 
boyish heart the first desire to be 
something. The heart of the child is 
the mother's kingdom—there she has 
full sway. But not for long does she 
enjoy her unquestioned rights, for while 
the lad is yet an infant there begins 
ANNUAL EVENT 
A BIG SUCCESS 
Hallowe'en Hike is in Form of 
Treasure Hunts; Abundance 
of Food Served 
PRIZE IS GIVEN 
Group Bonfires Contribute to the 
Friendliness and Warmth of 
Hallowe'en Spirit 
BY ESTHER REEDER 
Students agree that the annual 
Hallowe'en hike Saturday night was 
the best in the history of the school 
or at least in recent history. Old 
Man Winter evidently doesn't like 
Hallowe'en, for he didn't attend—
and the weather was ideal for the 
occasion. 
Much preparation on the part of 
the social committee was evident dur- 
ing the entire evening. �
Students and 
faculty members were divided into 
groups, each having a leader and his 
assistant. All met at the recreation 
field and started at the same time 
in different directions.' The leaders 
had in their possession an instruction 
sheet which gave them only sufficient 
information to get to the next place 
where further directions could be 
found. 
Some directions were highly in-
volved. One group leader was in-
strutted to find a certain ladder, sit 
on the first rung, letting a stick rest 
on his knees, and then take forty 
paces in t h e direction t h e stick 
pointed. Another group was sent 
to the dairy and told to find further 
directions under the white cow. Those 
led by Harold Schmidt and Isaac 
Berry were the first to return to the 
starting point, where bonfires gave 
them a warm welcome. Winner's 
cake, which several declared to be 
,the best ever eaten at Union, was 
served in generous pieces. We who 
returned later can take only the word 
of the fortunate winners as to the 
excellence of the cake. 
Each group had its bonfire. When 
all had come back from their jaunt 
the food was ready to be served, 
and the bread line looked like one of 
Chicago's own. Mrs. Hankins came 
to Union with the reputation of al-

COLORADO PEAKS 
LECTURE 'THEME 
Stereopticon Scenes Illustrate 
Beauties of the Mountains 
and Valleys 
KIENER IS SPEAKER 
Great Variety of Flowers and Trees 
Pictured, and Strange Animal 
Customs Described 
A stereopticon lecture on the Rocky 
mountains was presented by Walter 
Kiener, of the University of Nebras-
ka, in the college chapel Saturday 
night. 
The pictures shown in the lecture 
presented views of Lobg's 'peak, 
Pike's peak, Twin Sisters, and the 
Continental divide. Interesting facts 
about the vegetation in the mountain-
ous regions were revealed by the 
slides and explained by the speaker. 
The yellow pine is the most common 
tree, which grows upon the slopes 
7,000 feet above sea level, said Mr. 
Kiener. On the coldest parts of the 
mountains, he also brought out, a 
tree grows only on the protected side 
of large boulders, and the height of 
the tree will be only the height of the 
boulder, though its branches may be 
eight or more feet long. 
There are growing on the barren 
sides of the mountains, not only trees 
large and small, but over fifty varie-
ties of plants and flowers, the speaker 
asserted. Much of the natural beauty 
of the forests has been destroyed by 
fire in recent years, but the process 
of reforestation is beginning to restore 
to these wasted areas their original 
attractiveness, 'Mr. Kiener told his 
audience. 
Mr. Kiener related some interest-
ing things about the mountain ani-
mals and their strange customs. The 
marmot with its instinctive fear of un-
known objects a n d characteristic 
whistle and the porcupine with "all 
the vanity of a woman" were both 
objects of his discussion. 
The true sportsman climbs for the 
beauty of the mountains, for the joy 
of the gorgeous views at the end, 
declared Mr. Kiener, although there 
are some who climb for self-glory 
and for the pride of conquering. 
Many Denominations Represented at 
Temperance Meeting 
A temperance mass meeting held in 
Pastor Cardey's Bible tabernacle 
 
Thursday evening brought together 
delegates from nearly all the denomin-
ations of Lincoln. Union college was 
represented by a chior of thirty voic-
es. 
The principal speaker, Dr. Rufus 
A. Lyman, dean of the University 
of Nebraska Pharmacy school, stated 
that alcohol is not only injurious to 
health hut is also destructive of one's 
moral and spiritual nature. 
"We as Christians were asleep 
when we permitted light wines and 
beer to be voted into our state," Doc-
tor Lyman stated. "It is time for 
temperate thinking people to get to 
work. Are we going to permit the 
wet law to come back again? I think 
we as church members should ask 
ourselves where Christ would place 
the responsibility for the wet laws 
in Nebraska." 
according to ability for the business 
in hand (and not according to pro-
fessorial rank, it might be added). 
Contrary to vulgar conjecture; some 
of the most agile and shifty performers 
are those who,in professional life ap-
pear to be the most unbending and 
ossified possessors of joints that have-
n't bent for these many years and of 
muscles that might squeak at each 
thrust of a long-disused limb. These 
gentlemen o f graying o r vanishing 
(page the Herpicide squad!) locks dis-
phy a retnarkable survival of youth-
ful ebullience when they are in the 
blessed seclusion of "faculty hour at 
the gym." Very rarely a question 
arises as to the justice of a decision; 
but any dispute becomes itself a part 
of the relaxation period because of the 
impunity afforded to ribald satire. and 
jest and the academic frown that seems 
to say, "I need just one word to de-
scribe that decision; Limburger!" 
The faculty members feel that the 
recreation hour helps to keep minds 
as well as bodies alert and elastic. 
And if there is anything to the paral-
lel, we may respect the agility of our 
faculty minds after we have seen cer-
tain ones range the court from side 
to side, pasting the ball a resounding 
smack on either the right or the left 
with the swiftness and sureness that 
appropriately command respect from 
those of half the number of years. 
It takes the resourcefulness of One-
Eyed Connolly and an ingenious ex-
cuse to crash the gate on faculty 
night; but as a research contribution on 
the mice-cat problem outlined above, 
we may say by analogous deduction, 
after being in on a typical faculty 
session in the gym (no, not woodshed 
—after seeing those gentlemen perform 
we do not choose to meet any of them 
in the woodshed): "When the mice 
are away, the cat acts like a kitten."

to stir within him an instinct that 
"reaches and towers" —to be like 
"Dad." The mother does and always 
will hold her place as an object of 
worship; she will yet be the one who 
shares all of his joys and sorrows. 
But the boy himself will strive to be 
like the man he knows as Dad. 
There might be many reasons why 
the boy should want to emulate the 
man; and those reasons, I think, help 
explain why .I am glad I was born a 
boy. 
No doubt, the main thing about . 
manhood that appeals to the heart of 
the boy is strength. What lad has 
not clenched his fist and bended his 
elbow to watch the small beginning of 
biceps-to-be contract and harden? It 
is more than just the pure joy of be-
ing strong that stimulates such a de-
sire. The boy wants to be strong 
because of what strength stands for. 
It means that he is starting to be in a 
small way what God in the beginning 
intended that man should be—the pro-
tector and defender of the woman. 
I cannot remember that I ever 
wished I were a girl. Instead I was 
always emphatically glad I was a boy. 
But the why and wherefore of that 
feeling was hard to explain. But one 
reason was that a boy could do things 
—do things up in a big way, like go-
ing out and working in the fields and 
driving horses. He didn't have to 
fuss around in the house drying dishes 
and the like. He could run and play, 
too, and really enjoy living. 
Now that I've grown to be an older 
boy, I still am just as thankful that 
I was born masculine. But my rea-

THE GREAT ANTIDOTE 
It has always been easy to criticize and be criticized. We 
may become bored by the continual denouncements of leaving 
church before services are over, of cluttering the campus with 
our waste papers and candy wrappers. We may become tired of 
requests to get to chapel, classes, and services on time or to be 
more studious in the library and to do our conversing elsewhere. 
These admonitions and requests may serve to weary us, but in a 
group as large as ours there must be some things needing cor-
rection. We can each strive to improve the points wherein we 
are weakest. 
In the midst of these faults are deeds that call for commenda-
tion. We can not keep from appreciating the janitor who finds 
and empties the waste-paper basket secreted under the desk; the 
person who gives a few minutes of his time to make an algebra 
problem or an English assignment clearer to another; the hostess 
who keeps up a cheery conversation at her table; the person who 
speaks to you of your faults rather than to some one else. 
Our schedule is full. Each day we need more minutes than 
twenty-four hours provide; but we still have time to be cheerful, 
we have time to be courteous, we have time to be friendly; and 
we will still have as many hours, and much more pleasant ones, 
to do our necessary work. �
M. J. W. 
DECISION FEEDS AMBITION 
Ambition is essential to successful educational attainment. 
Most young people can think back into their kindergarten 
days of the times when teachers occasionally asked them what 
they planned to become when they grew up. Stretching their 
imaginations as far as their little minds were capable, they 
thought of themselves as big farmers with tractors and threshing 
machines to play with, or as housekeepers making sugar cookies 
in a beautiful white kitchen just like the one they had seen pic-
tured in a catalogue, or, if the Sabbath school device was particu-
larly attractive, as missionaries living away across the sea telling 
colored boys and girls Bible stories. 
Changing ambitions came later, as growth and mental devel-
opment increased life's horizon and brought new heroes. Teach-
ers smiled approvingly at plans to prepare for any good and hon-
est vocation, be it farming, doctoring, teaching, or preaching. 
And so, throughout the scholastic years, high educational attain-
ments were continually propounded. 
By the time students reach college they are expected to know 
rather conclusively their choice of profession, for this is a great 
incentive to completion of school work. One investigation among 
high school pupils showed that those who, at the beginning of 
their four years' work, definitely decided to remain until gradua-
tion, did so; that those undecided had one chance in eight to fin-
ish; and that those not expecting to remain, twenty-five chances 
to one. 
This situation may not be universal in its application to stu-
dent continuance, but it certainly shows that teachers are right 
in constantly holding up ambitions as a stimulus to educational 
and hence to professional success. Moreover, it should be an ob-
ject lesson to students at Union college who are hazy as to a 
career. They should now make up their minds. Even though they 
later change, it is good to make a decision because it increases 
their chances of college graduation and of being prepared for 
some line of work which might later present itself. �

ENVIRONMENTS 
Physical examinations! Why are they necessary? Why must 
each student go through this process? Our health is one of our 
most priceless possessions, and unless we take care of it, we may 
suddenly discover that it has slipped away from us. The two 
strongest factors affecting our health are heredity and environ-
ment. It is too late now for us to do anything about the heredity 
side, but we can do something about the environment in which 
we live. 
One of the faculties which distinguish man from lower ani-
mals is his ability to change his environment to suit his needs. 
The lower animals have to adjust themselves to their surround-
ings. While we may not always be able to make our environment 
just what we might wish it to be, yet we can go a long way 
toward improving it. It is not necessary for anybody to live in 
filth; and if thrown into such a place, most of us would take im-
mediate steps to institute a drastic change. However, how about 
the environment we make for ourselves, individually, each day? 
Do we permit ourselves to live in an atmosphere of worry, criti-
cism, and gloom? Are we always happy and cheerful while we

Union's enrolment this year is a 
bit out of proportion when compared 
with the past few years; and this is 
largely due to the freshmen, who 
number 213. We hope that the last 
two digits do not frighten any of 
them. Less than a fourth of that 
number will graduate if the custom-
ary rate of mortality prevails. Of-
ficial records show that in 1929-30 
there were 145 freshmen, and 34 in 
the graduating class; in 1930-31, 152 
freshmen, 44 seniors; in 1931-32, 118 
freshmen, 45 seniors; in 1932-33, 126 
freshmen, 19 seniors. Fluctuating and 
deceptive economic conditions in re-
cent years partly account for the de-
cline in graduates.

Woman's Merits Outlined 
(Continued from page one) 
then I have changed my mind about 
a lot of things. In the first place, 
now I am glad that I am a woman. 
It took several years for mother to 
get it into my head that beauty of 
action and character was far more 
important than beauty of face, though 
I greatly desired both. She showed 
me by specific example that intellect, 
poise, good manners, and education 
arc the things that promote success 
and put women on a more equal foot-
ing with men. Also, practically all 
professions were now open to the 
feminine members, educational advant-
ages were equal, and sports welcomed 
both sexes. 
And when I think of my own dear 
mother at home—such a brave little 
soul she is, and so true—I am glad 
thrice over that I am a woman. How 
she sacrificed for her children! How 
she endured sickness and financial re-
verses without a complaint! How she 
trusted and prayed and lived! I thank 
God for my mother. Over and over 
has her life inspired me to breathe 
the prayer, "Lord, make me worthy

Now my standards of greatness 
have changed. Some presidents of our 
country, some noted doctors and law-
yers and preachers may be accounted 
of less worth in heaven than many ob-
scure teachers, nurses, and mothers 
doing their share in their small sphere 
to mold the lives of those whom we

sons arc more grown up than they 
once were. I still, however, look for-
ward expectantly to doing things. Of 
course, girls can do things too, I 
know; but I believe they look to men 
to carry certain heavy responsibilities. 
These I am glad I have the privilege to 
share. 
I am glad I am a boy because of 
the challenge it brings to my honor 
and my manhood, because it affords 
me a real opportunity to be of serv-
ice to my sisters along life's way. 
Surely a man has failed to live up 
to his trust if he does not defend each 
member of the fairer sex—defend both 
her life and her character.

food, fresh air, and proper exercise, coupled with a cheerful and 
unworried daily program. Then when we come to the end of the

When The Town 
Crier Announced 
The News— 
History tells us that before 
the days of printed news-
papers the town crier gave 
the public the news of the 
day. That was the time 
when word-to-mouth was 
the means of communicat-
ing. 
Just how well would the 
town crier fit into modern 
civilization? It would be 
impossible for him to com-
pete with printed newspap-
ers. People would doubt 
the authenticity of his state-
ments. Seeing is believing, 
and the printed word has 
a degree of authenticity. 
Through years of faithful 
service, newspapers have 
developed integrity and 
truthfulness. Advertisers 
have long realized that un-

HANHARDT GIVES 
YOUTH PICTURE 
Professor Relates Incidents of Ger-
man Youth Movement 
Ernest D. Dick, class of '14, sec-
retary of the Northern European Div-
ision conference, spoke to the students 
and faculty at the chapel hour Octo-
ber 26, giving a brief description of 
the field in which he labors. 
Mr. Dick's first interest was Lon-
don, the headquarters from which he 
works, The speaker stated that he 
considered the transportation system 
of London one of the greatest won-
ders of the city. He also stated that 
London had one of the most efficient 
and courteous police systems in the 
world. 
In speaking of the recovery follow-
ing the recent economic crash, Mr. 
Dick stated that what recovery Eng-
land has made seems to be of a per-
manent nature and not of a temporary 
character. He further stated that 
taxes in 'England are much higher 
than in •America. 
In his description of the Scandin-
avian countries, the speaker pointed 
out their progressiveness. Modern 
conveniences, including all types of 
electrically driven machinery, he stat-
ed, are the common thing even in the 
rural districts. 
Finland is a lake country, explained 
Mr. Dick, it having fifty-five thous-
and lakes, which enhance its popul-
arity as a summer resort for the peo-
ple of Europe. He further stated that 
the people of this nation are a pa-
triotic and zealous people in their 
new-found liberty as given them by 
the Treaty of Versailles. 
War-torn Poland, stated the speak-
er, is a country of poverty, beggars 
being in the majority rather than in 
the minority. 
 
 
 
 
"Every revolution in government is 
preceded by a spiritual revolution 
among the youth," declared Prof. A. 
M. Hanhardt in a chapel talk Friday, 
when he outlined the origins and sig-
nificances of the modern youth move-
ment in New Germany, which began 
in 1900. The goal of the New Ger-
many is to unite all phases of the 
government under one strong central 
unit with all individual interests sub-
ject to those of the group, the speaker 
stated. 
Professor Hanhardt stated further: 
"The youth movement in Germany is 
the greatest of all time. The youth are 
organized in military style from the 
years of ten to eighteen. There are 
now approximately six million boys 
and girls in this great army of youth. 
The uniform of the boys is brown, 
similar to that of the American Boy 
scout hiking uniform. At eighteen the 
boys may join the National Socialist 
storm troops. These youth are some-
what revolutionary. They have brok-
en with past traditions. Some have 
revived the old Nordic gods and myth-
ology for their hope and salvation. 
"In 1900 a young man, Carl Fischer, 
who disliked city life and its rapidity, 
began to take hikes on Sundays and 
holidays. Some of his friends joined 
him and soon a great 'back to nature' 
movement had begun. In 1918 these 
youth took advantage of the revolu-
tionary spirit and fanned it into a 
flame. 
"These youth were the social yeast 
of the revolution. The same move-
ment hopes now to give New Germany 
a solution to her problems." 
HALLOCK-BRITT WEDDING 
Doris Hallock, of Briggsdale, Colo-
rado, and Alvin Britt, also of Briggs-
dale and a former student of Union 
college, were married September 26 
in the Briggsdale Seventh-day Advent-
ist church. Pastor C. E. Grant, of 
Loveland, Colorado, performed t h e 
ceremony. Music was furnished by 
Mr. D. G. Olsen. 
T h e bride, dressed in net over 
white, was attended by her sister, 
Miss Merle Hallock, and was given 
away by her father. 
- Mr. Willard Britt, brother of the 
groom, was best man.

THE CLOCK TOWER �
PAGE THREE 
When poor old Richard said, -Ex-
perience keeps a dear school, but fools 
will learn in no other," he must have 
known that sometime there would be 
untutored book agents. The sum-
mer months of 1933 which I spent in 
that informative occupation were 
packed full of rosy days, together 
with the gloomy ones; and as I look 
back upon them, I would not ex-
change them for love, money, or a 
scholarship — gloomy days included. 
For over a year before that fate-
ful summer I had been talking of 
going away from home to canvass. 
Now parents are all alike, especially 
those who belong in the category of 
the indulgent, those who have always 
provided comfort for their children, 
to say nothing of life's necessities. 
To this class belong my paternal 
guardians, So it was that they were 
surprised as well as chagrined that 
their home-loving daughter had really 
been in earnest about her fantastic 
plan to sell books. They had never 
taken me seriously, for they were ac-
customed to my elaborating upon some 
romantic project. 
I was graduated from high school 
on May 24, and five days later 
boarded a bus for Independence, 
Kansas, a town of about twelve thous-
and inhabitants. After a rather lone-
some journey of nearly two hundred 
miles, I reached my destination and 
went immediately to the home of a 
Mr. McCarty, whose address I had 
been given. Mr. and Mrs. McCarty 
were a jolly couple, typically Irish, 
with hearts in proportion to their 
bodies, which were of ample dimen-
sions. 
My partner for the hazardous ad-
venture arrived the same afternoon, 
and Mr. 'McCarty took us to the 
home of an old lady who had agreed 
to give us a room. However, mainly 
from discomfort and partly from the 
human-nature feeling that anything 
free is of doubtful value, we rented 
a room from a family who lived 
across the street from the McCarty 
home. Mr. Perry, a hen-pecked little 
man who was a retired jockey always 
ready to relate some experience, 
kept us laughing whenever we had 
time or inclination to listen. The sad 
part of our sojourn in the Perry home 
was Mrs. Perry's stinginess. She 
even begrudged us the water we used. 
She told us that taking so many baths 
would increase our avoirdupois, think-
ing, I suppose, that we would cease 
or curtail our indulgence in that re-
freshing ritual. Had we been suffi-
ciently gullible we probably should 
have taken fewer baths, for Daisy, 
the daughter, was a two-hundred-fif-
ty-pound warning—although we did 
not learn whether she was an addict 
of excessive bathing. She did add 
greatly to our discomfort, especially 
when she played the piano for plea-
sure, because she came down on the 
abused keys with all the heft of her 
eighth of a ton. 
At the end of two weeks we set 
out in search of a new abode, and 
after a gallant effort we found a two-
room apartment which was attractive 
and cozy. I bargained with the lady 
to take a book as payment for my 
share of one month's rent. Having 
arranged thus, I was well satisfied, 
knowing that I should not have to 
take a park bench for at least a month. 
Above all things, my pride would not 
allow me to write home for money. 
I would stick it out, as the saying 
goes, or grow thin in the attempt. 
Our meals weren't such a problem, 
because good Mother McCarty in-
sisted that we sit to board at her house 
each noon. These noon meals acted 
as restoratives, for if I had had a 
bad morning, our hostess could easily 
make me forget it. She always made 
my troubles seem so insigniecantr If 
we believed the old Greek theory 
that one's life after death depends 
upon his name being mentioned by 
those on earth, Mother McCarty 
would be the peppiest of them all, 
for my children after me shall be in-
structed to immortalize her name. 
As small towns go, there are usual-
ly more old people than young ones. 
At any rate I seemed to find them 
all or perhaps I encountered more of 
them because they are the ones who 
decorate the front porches in the day 
time. I remember that one day it 
seemed that every porch in the block 
was occupied, and the houses were 
close together. However, I walked 
bravely up to the first one, and began 
my canvass. The lady stared at me 
with a blank expression on her face 
and said, -Eh?- I repeated my little 
speech, this time in a higher tone. 
Much to my distress she still looked 
blank, and I unthinkingly began to 
shout. When I realized in bewilder-
ment what I had done, it was too late, 
for all the other ladies in that block 
had withdrawn into the interior. Need-
less to say, I skipped the rest of that 
block of my territory until my pros-
pects had recovered. 
My summer was not unbroken by 
short vacations. The first one was 
a trip to Kansas City with the people 
from whom we rented our apartment. 
I walked into my home at midnight 
and gave my parents a shock. This 
was in June and I had been gone 
less than a month, but my mother 
acted as though I had just returned 
from a trip through the jungles of 
Africa or some other dangerous far-
away spot. The way she cooked for 
me, she seemed to think I had had very 
little to cat in my absence, for she 
fed me to the point of discomfort and 
then insisted I eat more. At the end 
of three days I felt like a walking 
commissariat. 
Back to work again with a fresh 
start, I began to canvass among the 
negro people of the town. After 
working a short time I thought that 
at last I had become an expert in the 
bookselling occupation. But woe 
was me when the day came to deliver 
the books and collect the money. 
Most of my customers had to scratch 
their heads even to recollect having 
seen me before. The typical answer 
I received from many of them was, 
"Law, chile, I plumb forgot you was 
comin'. I ain't got a cent of money, 
and I cain't take the book. I'se aw-
ful sorry." Well, so was I, but the 
tragedy lay in the fact that nothing 
could be done about it, for such is 
the fate of the book agent. 
One of my most pleasant memories 
is the friendship I formed with a 
lovable old lady. Hers was the first 
house I had visited one morning as 
I started out for the day, and we be-
came so involved in conversation that 
I stayed until noon. Furthermore, 
I did not count the time wasted, for 
I believe it was one of my most prof-
itable forenoons. She was very dis-
couraged in her religious belief. I 
endeavored to encourage her to 
strengthen her faith and renew her 
hope. I revisited her many times 
during the summer, and have cor-
responded with her ever since. 
I consider my summer of pavement-
pounding days a valuable asset to my 
life in general. I met cheerful people; 
I met grouchy people; I met cold-
hearted people; I met religious people 
and ungodly ones. I had my good 
and my bad days, yet when I re-
turned home in August, ready to enter 
college, I felt rich in my experience if 
not in my pockets. 
Lighthouse Used as the 
Sabbath School Device 
This semester the Union College 
Sabbath school has for a goal device 
one of the most stimulating schemes 
in its history. It is a large picture of 
a careening ship near a lighthouse. 
The waves are beating high, the 
clouds are stormy, and the sun has 
completely disappeared behind the 
bank of night. Upon the deck are the 
panic-stricken passengers waiting for 
the life-boat to rescue them. 
The light shed by the lighthouse 
tells in a definite way how interested 
the Sabbath school members are in 
saving the perishing ones. The win-
dows reveal the faithfulness in daily 
lesson study of the girls, the boys, 
and the mixed classes. Seventy-five 
per cent of each group must study 
their lessons daily in order that their 
light may burn. The door of the light-
house represents attendance. If eigh-
ty per cent are present each Sabbath, 
a light is emitted by the door. 
Whether t h e financial goal is 
reached or not is shown by the motor 
boat sent out to rescue the passengers. 
With each five dollars given by the 
Sabbath school one person can be 
saved. All the passengers must be in 
by January 5, 1935, for then the ship 
will go down. 
Wendell Dorn spent a recent week-
end in Des Moines, Iowa. 
Dormitory Has 
Many Advantages 
For Occupants 
BY A. DEAN HICKOK 
We never really like or dislike an 
individual until we know him; we 
never really know him until we 
live with him or near him. We never 
know his inward battles until, per-
chance, he places confidence in us. 
We gain confidences or lose them in 
dormitory life. 
To a vivacious young man, living 
in a dormitory is a great source of 
fundamental education. Every day a 
diversity of personalities—personal-
ities each of which makes its con-
tribution to the novitiate who will 
emulate a desired trait; every day 
earnest arguments with his fellows, 
and he soon discovers that friendly 
debate is widening his intellectual 
understanding. The variety of asso-
ciates and friends seems to determine 
the intellectual sphere of an indivi-
dual's understanding. 
These same influences limit or ex-
tend cultural learning. A young man 
who has limited opportunities to meet 
stimulating people or those in the 
business of acquiring an education, 
may come to Union college from 
the mountains of western Colorado, 
from the sage prairies of central 
Wyoming, or from the wind-swept 
plains of South Dakota, and, after 
the awkward newness has worn off, 
he will begin the process of extra-
curricular education — that of polish-
ing the dull spots with manners and 
of donning the cloak of culture. At 
Union he will live and associate with 
the possessor of bland expression, 
the Southerner; he will become a 
friend of the exact Easterner; he 
will feel natural with 'the blunt, hos- 
' pitable Westerner; he will acquaint 
himself with the culture of the Ger-
man, the Dane, the Swede, the Jew, 
the Roumanian, and the 'Russian; he 
will have a chance to acquire the 
grace and ease which should dis-
tinguish every educated man when 
he has gone out into the world. All 
this, if lie lives in one of the dormi-
tories. 
Of the bells most dreaded in the 
homes of Union, the rising bells 
rank first; the most popular are the 
bells which give summons to the din-
ing room. A schedule should not be 
looked upon as only a means to 
operate a daily program in a school 
of this kind, but it should be indiv-
idually accepted as a program of self-
discipline. There is no better place 
than a dormitory to learn this art of 
controlling self. and of getting along 
with others. It was Tennyson who, 
after his first works proved a failure, 
went back to his education to spend 
years in self-discipline before he gave 
to the world his best. 
Where are there more pleasant 
associations? Where can be found 
more adequate means for a cultural 
training than in the dormitories? 
Where is a more suitable, a more 
sensible program for learning the 
art of living together to be found?

sitaet spricht im Verein 
Die erste, regelrechte Versammlung 
des Deutschen Vereins land am Sams-
tagabend, dem 3. November, im Zim-
mer 201 statt. Herr Dr. W. K. Pfei-
ler, Professor an der Staats-Universi-
tat Nebraska, gab einen Lichtbilder-
vortrag fiber die Oberammcrgauer Pas-
sionsspiele. Auber den Mitgliedern des 
Vereins land sich auch eine Anzahl 
Freunde des Vereins ein. Insgesamt 
waren 51 Personen anwesend. 
Kurze Begrribungsworte des 1. Vor-
sitzcndcn leiteten den geschaftlichen 
Teil der Versammlung ein. Herr E. 
Lchnhoff vcrlas das Protokoll und auch 
die Namen der Mitglieder, die sich so-
weit dem Deutschen Verein ange-
schlol3en haben. Die Zahl der aktiven 
Mitglieder betragt bereits sechsund-
dreibig. Mit einigen kurzen Bekannt-
machungen kam der geschaftliche Teil 
der Versammlung zurn Abschlub. 
Der gesamtc Verein sang dann, un-
ter der Lcitung von Hcrrn Meissner, 
das echtdeutsche und nie alternde 
Volkslied „Wem Gott will rechte 
Gunst erweisen". Herr Dr. Pfeiler 
leitete dann mit einigen allgemeinen 
Worten fiber die Passionsspiele seinen 
Lichtbildervortrag ein. Der Redner 
hob besonders hervor, dab die Mit-
wirkenden im Passionsspiel keine Be-
rufsschauspieler seien, sondern ein-
fache Handwerker des kleinen ober-
bayrischen Dorfchens Oberammergau. 
Die ersten Lichtbilder fuhrten uns 
diese Passionsspieler im alltaglichen 
Leben und Treiben vor Augen. Auch 
die krinstlerisch bemalten Hauser der 
Hauptdarsteller des Passionsspieles 
wurden gezeigt. Darauf folgte eine 
Reihe einzelner Bilder der Hauptdar-
steller wie Christus, Petrus, Johannes, 
Caiphas, Annan usw. Herr Dr. Pfei-
ler hob immer wieder die naturgetreue 
und typische Nachahmung der alten 
Glaubenshelden hervor. Diesen ein-
zelnen Bildern folgte eine Reihe Grup-
penaufnahmen, die die Hauptereignisse 
vom Einzug Jcsu in Jerusalem bis zu 
seiner Auferstehung schilderten. Der 
gesamte Vortrag mit all den belch-
renden und mitunter auch scherzhaften 
Bemerkungen Herrn Dr. Pfeilers gab 
den Anwesenden einen kleinen Bcgriff 
des grobartigen Passionsspiels, das 
allc zehn Jahre in Oberammergau ge-
spielt wird. Nach dem Schlub des 
offiziellen Programmsversammelten sich 
die Vereinsmitglieder, um noch deut-
sche Wanderlieder fiir den am folgen-
den Tage stattflndenden Ausflug zu 
iiben. 
Nuetzliche Ratschlaege 
dem Seminar gegeben 
Pastor J. H. Schilling bespricht die 
Berufung zum Predigtamt 
Am Freitagabend, dem 2. Novem-
ber, sprach Brd. J. H. Schilling dar-
iiber, wie junge Menschen von Gott 
zum �
Predig taint berufen werden, 
Diese Berufung 1st nicht mit einem 
Beruf zu vergleichen, den man er-
greift, urn materiell voranzukommen, 
sondern man iibt ihn aus, urn unseren 
Mitmenschen die Hellsbotschaft zu 
hringen. 
In der Versammlung des Seminars am 
19. Oktober sprach als erster Redner 
Waldemar Jesske riber die Bedeutung 
der Missionsarbeit unserer Gemein-
schaft, und als zweiter Redner sprach 
Hans Kuehne fiber folgende Bibel-
stelle: „Niemand suche das Seine, 
sondern ein jeglicher, was des andern 
ist." 
Der erste Redner betonte die Fort-
schritte, die bis jetzt in der Ausbrei-
tung der Botschaft gemacht worden 
sind. Als Jugend dieser Generation 
sollte unser Ziel sein, das Evangelium 
in den Grobstadten und auf dem 
Lande zu verkundigen. Der zweite Red-
ner stellte dar, wig wir als junge Evan-
geliumsarbeiter uns so vorbcreiten soli-
ten, dab wir fahig werden, Gottes 
Wort im rechten Geiste zu verkiin-
digen, denn Gott gebiihrt die are. 
Florence Lucille Terry was hostess 
at a birthday party last week in hon-
or of Margaret Farnsworth. Guests

NELSON URGES 
SPIRITUAL LIFE 
Sabbath Observance and Tithe Paying 
Must be Upheld by Youth 
"Any movement, to succeed, must 
be able to inspire its youth with the 
fire and enthusiasm of the founders of 
the movement," declared Professor 
W. E. Nelson, Educational secre-
tary of the General conference, in 
his chapel lecture October 24. Quot-
ing Paul's statement, "I have writ-
ten unto you, young men, because ye 
are strong," Professor Nelson as-
sured his audience that there is a 
bright future for Seventh-day Adven-
tists because of the devotion, en-
thusiasm, and strength of the young 
people now in schools who will soon 
take up the work left by aging 
leaders. 
In order to fill these posts of duty 
acceptably, Professor Nelson de-
clared, the youth must know the 
principles for which the denomin-
ation stands; they must he able to 
hold up the standards raised by the 
pioneers of the movement. Professor 
Nelson mentioned carefulness in Sab-
bath observance and strictness in 
tithe paying as specific principles to 
he upheld. 
Professor Nelson was a Union 
college student thirty years ago. He 
is a former president of Southwestern 
Junior college and of Pacific Union 
college. 
S. S. GROUP ENJOY HIKE 
Twenty-five members of the Sab-
bath school choir hiked to Robert's 
park at five o'clock Sunday morning 
for a sunrise breakfast. The mud of 
the by-paths made "slick going," and 
the mystery of the direction given on 
slips of paper found at various points 
along the way added to the interest 
of the early morning hikers. 
At the end of the trek, fires were 
built and breakfast was prepared.
