School Picnic July 4 cr Send in News for Clock Tower VOL. XIX UNION COLLEGE, LINCOLN 6, NEBRASKA, JUNE 30, 1944 NO. 20 Memorial Services at 264 Register in Summer Session College View Cemetery Founders Gi.ven Honor In spite of threatening skies and in- termittent showers Memorial Day ser- vices were conducted at the College View cemetery, May 21, with several hundred students and residents of College View and Lincoln present. Speakers for the ceremony were Elder N. C. Wilson, Pre ident Cossentine, Elder C. R. Kyte, and Mr. H. C. Hartman. Prayer was of- fered by Dr. Lynn H. Wood of the Theological Seminary. H. C. Hartman, chairman of the ceme- tery board, in his introduction to the service, told of extensive plans for the beautification and maintenance of the grounds; and Elder N. C. Wilson de- livered an address on the inspiration in the lives of the founders who were rest- ing in those burial grounds—founders of the Lord's work in the Middle West. President Cossentine paid a tribute to the pioneers of the College and of the educational work in the central terri- tories; and Elder Kyte, one of the oldest residents of College View, enumerated the names of many persons of the bygone generation whose lives had been a tre- mendous influence for good. A male quartet provided special mu- sic by singing, "In That Land Where Well Never Say Good-by." New Registrar is Old Student Back to old Union after an absence of over twenty years comes Miss Marie Anderson. "And," says the new regis- trar, "it's just like coming home." Miss Anderson graduated with the class of '23 and in the following year took up an appointment at Plainview Academy where she taught in her major field—English. Four years were spent at Broadview college, and for the past ten Miss Anderson's time has been devoted to the work at Soutthwestern Junior . -ollege, during the last six of which she %vas librarian and registrar. Miss Anderson says that she is de- lighted with the spirit of cordiality and friendship so noticeable at Union and feels assured that under these circum- stances her work, which she already finds most enjoyable, will increase in satisfac- tion. On the other hand, teachers and students alike have found Miss Anderson very cooperative and accomodating to the extent that an- atmosphere of cheer- fulness and willing asistance pervades the registrar's office. "How can I help feeling at home," inquired Miss Anderson of the reporter, "when I spent several years here—and when the first person to meet me on my arrival was my former Dean, Miss Rees?" Kappa Theta Selects Summer Officers A committee chosen during a recent girls' worship period appointed as offi- . cers of Kappa Theta for the summer r months: president, Laura James; vice president, Maxine Lawson; secretary, Martha DeCamp; critic, Dorothea Fitz- gerald. Jane Douglas, Marjorie Hill, and Eunice Skadsheim were selected as a committee to help in planning programs. Dr. L II. Wood Addresses Students Mounts of beautiful butterflies from Dr. Marsh's laboratory were used by Dr. L. 11. Wood during the Vesper hour June 9 to illustrate another of his unique but heart-searching talks. "We—worms of the dust—have the privilege of be- coming the most beautiful objects of God's universe" was the theme of his object lesson. Sabbath, June 10, various bottles and equipment from the chemistry laboratory were used to point out to the audience that "we are a chosen people" and that fire only "purifies the true metal of value." Dr. Wood, who was about the campus for about a week helping to survey build- ing sites for proposed new buildings, is a friend of many students and many remember the week of prayer he con- ducted two years ago here. Summer Sabbath School Organizes Ed Koenig Chosen Leader Due to a few changes in filling va- cancies left in the Sabbath School, the officers for the summer now are: Ed Koenig—Superintendent, Betty Jane Glew Assistant Superintendent, Glady Brown Secretary, Alden Jensen—Assistant Sec- retary, Delmer Holbrook—Chorister, Juli- us Korgan—Chorister, and Rosella Reiner Pianist.

Enrollment Tops All Records The Union college summer school is well on its way. The first session began May 28 with a good attendance. The intensiveness of the work meant long hours in class and in the preparation of the lessons; for a three-hour class meant full time work of three or four hours of recitation a day, each class presupposing two hours of preparation. There were, however, some courses of two hours credit each. The second or "long" session of nine weeks began June 19. The attendance is larger than it has been in the summer school for many years, the enrollment being 236 in the college and 28 in the academy, making a grand total of 264, with several students still to enroll. Of the number enrolled, 69 are church school teachers from the three union conferences in the college territory. The remainder of the students are working on their regular courses under the ac- celerated program. The staff for the summer is made up as follows: sixteen full-time teachers, ten administrative and industrial workers, and three graduate assistants. It is a large family to work together for the twelve weeks, and with the blessing of God we all hope. to accomplish all that we should and make the most of the summer opportunity. Our weekly program differs some- what from the regular routine of the school year; vesper services alternate with the Young People's meetings on Friday evenings, and chapel is held only once a week—on Monday morning. I. F. Blue, Director of Summer Session G. C. Nickle of Cuba Visits Those who attended Sabbath School, June 3, heard Elder G. C. Nickle, Presi- dent of the Cuba Conference and father of June Nickle, tell a story of Minnis Newhall, former student of Union, in his interesting mission talk. Elder Nickle occupied the Girls' worship hour that same evening relating several more exciting and humorous mis- sion experiences. He came here to interest students in mission work and in search of students who would be future missionaries. June left with her father to return to her home. in Cuba where she plans to take more: schoolwork during the summer. Former Conference President visits College Stories and incidents from his per- sonal life and acquaintance with early leaders of the Advent movement made the sermon given by Elder S. G. Haughey, June 17, especially interest- ing and inspiring. The 75-year-old leader is well ac- quainted with the history and lives of the early leaders. Of special interest was his account of the angel who visited Battle Creek.

Stepping Stones How many of us have stood for a moment on the topmost step to fourth or fifth floor and gasped for air as we tried to collect our "bearings." At some time or other we may have even counted the ob- stacles we surmounted in order to stand at the top. We probably called them steps, but, in reality, isn't a stairway merely a series of obstacles? We climb over one step at a time only to be met by another and another until at last, tired but content, we gaze hack and are thankful for the hard, steep way which has been our only means of arriving at our goal. The obstacles of life form stairways by which we may climb to our highest goal. Do not stand at the foot of the stairway and complain because the way is too steep and high. Begin one step at a time. Do not be discouraged if the progress is sometimes slow; the crowd will sympathize if we stop to catch our breath or fall occasionally, but it will walk all over us if we lie there and grunt. Progress depends upon what we are, rather than on what we en- counter. One man may be stopped by a sapling lying across his path; another, passing that way, may pick up the hindrance and convert it into a help in crossing the brook just ahead. Will you be content to let your obstacles lie about in helter skelter fashion to stumble over, or will the series form a stairway to success? No one can climb on thin air. C. C.

STREET FLOOR 2 CLOCK TOWER, JUNE 30, 1944 Unappreciated New Matron Takes Over Duties Two tons of asparagus were stacked in piles in the kitchen to add to the responsibilities of Miss Sylvia Simon who took over the duties of boarding- hall director On May 29. Under her able supervision, over one and a half tons were safely frozen in a locker before the week was over. Her second week here has been filled with trying to keep paint out of kettles and dishes long enough to serve a meal. Dodging between splashes of paint and under ladders, she has managed to keep order when it seemed it could not be done. Such an introduction to one's work would be enough to discourage almost anyone, but not Miss Simon. Her cheer- ful smile and friendly manner have al- ready won for her many new friends, while she herself declares that she knows of no place where she would rather be. • • i • • 0 0 0 C, 4=1.0411•0•10.0.0.01=1.0.11.=•00.41,411-0.1M1.0•0•16.1 'GREETINGS' Summer School Students For Quality Hair Cuts and Tops in Barber Service Visit DUNLAP'S BARBER SHOP Corner of 48th & Calvert 11,01•,...41•1•041••••01M00.1.1.0.0=.0.0.0.11.0.1.11.111•11.11 -4/ BILL RANKIN Dear Editor, I thought perhaps you'd be interested to hear from an ex-Unionite out here. I don't like to say "ex" because my Union education isn't over. Like a lot of other students I was taken away and when it's all over out here, we're coming back to finish what we started. I miss Union a lot. I was disappointed when I boarded the train and found that we were headed for San Diego instead of Farragut, which is nearer Lincoln. But this is a nice place when you get used to it. Boot camp is the toughest of training and a lot of men don't make it, but I'm still going— although I won't say strong! I'm a re- cruit petty officer, and slated for a rating as radio tech. mate. Today, the C.P.O. and other petty officers went on liberty so I have company 259 on my hands. It's a job, but I like it. I'd like to hear from anyone there. Sincerely, Bill Rankin Co. 44-259, U.S.N.T.S. San Diego 33, Calif. ( A short excerpt from one of his letters to Miss Hall may interest our readers.) "We spent a very eventful week on a good ship, the name of which I'm not permitted to disclose. We ran into a few Jap planes—two dive-bombers and a few torpedo planes. It was a surprise—they evidently were lost from a larger for- mation not far off. They hit some minor blows—set a couple of fires. One in cabins was hard to put out. Two men got burned in a backflash from a diesel oil fire in a large fuel tank. It got awfully hot but we were lucky. I got a break yesterday; they're ship- ping me to Mississippi for training in basic engineering, and in six weeks I'm back to sea, but here's hoping I'll be for- tunate enough to drop in at Union before long." WALTER PAGE ( The following is taken from a letter to Miss Hall from Walter Page.) "Last Saturday I was quite surprised to see Kenneth Mayberry walk in. He didn't remember me till I reminded him but I had no difficulty recognizing him— he looks the same except for the uni- form." DONALD ALTMAN (From one of Don Altman's letters to Miss Hall we quote: ) "You should see the pair of coveralls I am making for yours truly. The only thing I could get was four sizes too big for me, so I deducted by a simple matter of shortening the waist, sleeves, and legs, I could make them fit very nicely. The hospital's tailor absolutely re- fused to tackle the job, so I got out needle, thread, pins, and razor blade and went to work. I soon found out that if I shortened the waist I would also have to take in quite a bit in the back. Then I discovered that the seat and legs also •had a barracks-bag appearance. At present I have $3.50 worth of coveralls, amputated at the waist, ripped open in the scat, and in the seams of the legs, and the will to persevere has gone from me. I don't know—I may make a curtain for the screen door on our tent." BEN NELSON ( Ben Nelson writes: ) "The fellows are good about letting me have some of the Instructors and Re- views here. Raymond Pelton brought me a big handfull two weeks ago. Don Alt- man, who is walking distance from here, supplies me with papers and the 35c books. Since I change my address so often, I couldn't order any of our papers. I received a letter from Clarence Hil- liard. He is in Italy or Sicily. I guess he likes his work and that helps a lot." Alexander-Aalborg Tall baskets of white lilies and ferns formed the background scene for the marriage of Edythe Mae Alexander, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Groom of Bristow, Oklahoma, to Dale Aalborg, son of Mr. and Mrs. Lee Aalborg, of Palisade, Colorado, in the College View church Sunday evening, May 21, at 9 o'clock. Elder R. R. Bietz, of Clovis, New Mexico, officiated. A prelude of organ melodies was played by Mrs. H. C. Hartman. "Ah Sweet Mystery of Life'' was sung by Anna Lee Lyon and Francis Chamberlain sang "Because." During the ceremony the "Lord's Prayer" was sung by Law- rence Rahn. Mr. and Mrs. Aalborg graduated with the class of 1944 and will reside in Las Cruces, New Mexico where Mr. Aalborg will be a ministerial interne in the Texico Conference. Grimstad-Herrmann Before an altar screened with ferns and calla lillies and appointed with lighted cathedral candles in seven branched can- delabra, the marriage of Miss Evelyn Grimstad, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Grimstad, of Brainerd, and Pfc. Charles Herrmann, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Herrmann, of Woodbury, N. J., was solemnized Monday, May 22. The 4 o'clock service was held in the North Hall parlor and read by E. M. Cadwalla- der in the presence of relatives and friends. Mrs. Hermann was graduated from Union college in this spring's class. The groom is now in his senior year at the University of Nebraska Dental college, where he will receive his degree in August. Hargrove-Sherrill On June 4, a very pretty wedding was solemnized in the Seventh-day Ad- ventist church, Alexandria, La., when Miss Joy Hargrove, of Oakdale, La., and Mr. Ewing Frank Sherrill of Nacog- doches, Tex., were united in marriage. These young people were former students of Southwestern Junior College, class of '43. Mr. and Mrs. Sherrill, will make their home in Lincoln, Nebraska. The groom will continue his ministerial course in Union College, where both were stu- dents the past year. A reception was held in honor of the bride and groom at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Steve Lymberis, Alexandria, the aunt and uncle of the bride. Pullen-Hagenberg Miss Naomi Pullen, daughter of Mrs. Rodney Pullen, Lincoln, Nebraska, and Mr. Charles Hagenberg, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. C.

Rowland-Pogue Miss Lola Jane Rowland, daughter of Elder and Mrs. J. W. Rowland became the bride of Mr. James L. Pogue, on Monday evening, May 22, at an 8:30 o'clock service in the College View church. The service was read by Elder J. W. Rowland, father of the bride in a setting of palms and baskets of calla lillies, carnations, snapdragons and feverfew. Preceding the entrance of the bridal party, Miss Anna Lee Lyon, Mrs. Charles Lickey, and Miss Frances Chamberlain sang "Venetian Love Song," Nevin, ac- companied by Miss Estelle W. Kiehn- hoff who played the wedding music. The violin obligato for the trio was played by Miss Marjorie Tryon. The closing prayer, "The Life Road," was sung by Mrs Charles Lickey, sister of the bride.

I stood there and looked—amazed at its fragile beauty. Last night as I had passed the spot it was a few feet of dusty grass lying beside the road. This morning diamonds shimmered from each spear. There in the quietness of the morning it lay practically unobserved and unap- preciated but adding its bit of beauty never-the-less. And as I stood and watched the rapidly evaporating droplets I thought of people who are like that. Ordinary in the harsh light of mid-day, they sparkle quietly in less conspicuous cir- cumstances. Those who stand aside to watch quietly will observe that often there is hidden in the life of the unassuming, kindness, helpful- ness, and the steadiness and trustworthiness that makes a real friend. At the beginning of each school session we meet many new faces. Plain, at first glance, and without knowing their characters we form hasty opinions and just as hastily criticize. Let's rid ourselves of this vicious habit—let's give new people a chance to prove themselves to us. They may turn out to be a part of a friendship of lasting beauty. 5th War Loan BUY BONDS NOW Union Bank PANGBURN at Everett Drug 3947 So. 48th FREE ENROLLMENT We Get You the Good Jobs .

On Cats All of us have seen cats, I suppose, but few are as intimately acquainted with them as the members of the mam- malogy class—especially dead cats, per- fumed ones which have scores of blood vessels that have to be traced to every limb and muscle. Natalie especially enjoys the digestive system, but became almost ill at the thought of the harm she might be doing to her huge animal—and I do mean huge! If any of you haven't seen the jungle, visit the laboratory and see the small tigers Stanley Kirk and Wayne Nelson operate on. Alden Chase specializes in muscles, and sorts them out into Pectoralis major and Pectoralis minor. Learning long names is bad enough, but when it comes to learning all the little projections on the bones and the spaces in them—well, ask Alan Albertson or Maynard Versaw how that goes. Concentration and plenty of it is what Genevieve McWilliams puts out when she tackles the brain and its nidges and dips. Nothing has longer names than the tiny parts of the brain, she says. Down the hall, in fact all along the hall, everyone is aware of the presence of cats. Occasionally, someone stops to look in. Only the juniors in Dr. Marsh's butterfly-chasing class bother to stay long. Cats have different effects—to Dave Killion they gave the measles. To Sidney Beaumont, they give a headache, but it's all in the interest of science. Cats, embalmed cats, aren't so bad after one has worked with them. Soon one becomes accustomed to the smell, the cracking of bones and snapping of muscles. It's all in the life of our future doctors.

We Handle Quality Groceries KUEHL'S GROCERY Teacher Many times this summer I have been approached with the solicitous greeting, "Oh, you are teaching in summer school!" People seem to act as though teaching in the summer months is a terrible penal- ty to have to pay for following a none too desirable profession even during the most attractive season of the year for teaching, the rugged old winter time. Permit me to stand up in defense of teaching as a pleasant. occupation at any season of the year, and especially in the summer time. If one did not enjoy teaching he would be both unwise and unhappy to persist in trying to teach either summer or winter; but, to those who consider it one of life's noblest professions, weather and life's exigencies merely whet the zeal and the zest for the job. But I submit to you, a fair-minded reader, is not the summer season a more desirable season in which to live? Much more pleasant scenes greet the eye than the stark, bare trees and the apparently lifeless vegetation as far as the eye can see. The summer's wild life of birds, the greater mobility and variety of na- ture, the relaxation of working in victory gardens, the lack of sweeping blizzards from the Arctic, the fragrance of flowers in the scented air surely appeal to the living. Under such conditions and amidst such pleasant surroundings summer teach- ing possesses a flavor that can not be ap- proached in the regular, traditional winter sessions. Further, students attend summer school because of definite decisions and courses are chosen from pure free will. A teacher with a class of enthusiastic students re- ceives an added inspiration and works with the feeling that the class is inter- ested and studying is a delight instead of a drudgery. I wish that all of my teaching could be done in "the good old summer time!" E. M. Hause Student What's summer school like? This ques- tion may he in the mind's of some of those who are permitted to enjoy the CLOCKTOW ER from their own veranda. To really understand the answer to that question, one would have to attend, but a few facts may enlighten the reader to a limited degree. To begin with, summer school is a highly concentrated program and is di- vided into two sessions—one of three weeks, the other nine weeks. To obtain three hours credit in three weeks, it is necessary to attend class three hours per day. However, these are broken up into two or three periods so one isn't given an overdose at one sitting. During the nine weeks' period, one hour class work per day will suffice for a three hour course. The personnel is made up of several classes, namely, (1.) seniors who lacked a requirement here or a grade point there. ( 2.) ministerial students who must remain in school in order to maintain their 4-D status. ( 3.) teachers from our academies and church schools who want to improve their knowledge and skill. (4.)those who want to get ahead faster. In all there are about one hundred and thirty-five attending the short session, and it is hoped that this number will be doubled when the long session begins. The faculty is largely the same as it was during the school year except, like the student body, it is much smaller. Some of the teachers are in the field re- cruiting new scholars. Others are away at universities working toward an ad- vanced degree. A few new faces appear. Term papers, quizzes, and the like still fill our hearts with fear, but, as usual, they help fill our heads with learn- ing. The amusements are more of the out- door variety. However, the weather hasn't become really hot yet. In fact, coats have been in style this week, but we know this won't last, and we hope the planning committee will be making arrangements for the opening of the"ole swimming hole." Byron Patrick Worker A full-time worker's day begins at six-thirty in the morning—that is, if he expects to get to the dining room in time for breakfast. By half past seven, everyone is supposed to be found at his particular job in one of the college's various industries. The work goes on until noon, when everyone rushes to the dining room—hungry, no doubt! Evening is the time when the workers have the advantage over the students, for they don't have a lesson to worry about nor a class to attend either. The full-time worker has the whole evening to use just as he wishes. There is always roller-skating to keep him busy and happy besides many other enter- tainments he may plan for himself. All in all, a summer spent working full time at Union is really quite enjoy- able, for a person is not only earning credit for a college education, but he is gaining a practical education while he works.
