VoL. VIII COLLEGE VIEW STATION, LINCOLN, NEBRASKA, OCTOBER 26, 1933 No. 3 TAIT HELPS IN PRAYER WEEK Veteran "Signs of the Times" Editor Speaks in Devotional Exercises Here ANDREASEN TALKS Value of Christianity Stressed by President in Sermons During Spiritual Feast A spirit of earnestness and con- secration characterized the meetings of the week of prayer at Union col- lege, conducted by Pastor A. 0. Tait, editor of the Signs of the Times, and President M. L. Andreasen. Several students have joined a baptismal class which is meeting under the direction of Pastor F. H. Yost. Pastor 0. A. Tait, in the first chap- el service of the fall Week of Prayer, outlined the perplexing conditions now existing in the financial, social, and political world. Using the prophecies of Daniel 12 as a background, the speaker referred to the writings of various prominent men of today to show how literally these predictions are being fulfilled. Reading excerpts from the recent books of Sir Philip Gibbs, George Seldes, Sherwood Eddy, Frank Simonds, Winston Churchill, Major K. A. Bratt, and Paul Hutchinson, he produced evi- dence of the sense of fear in men's minds that another war is coming which will end civilization. "And there shall be a time of trouble such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time." Years ago, when the Adventists first preach- ed and taught this idea, they were considered rank pessimists, said the speaker. Men refused to believe that such things could ever take place; but as time unfolded to view the condi- tions in which the people are living today, these same men changed their ideas, declared Pastor Tait; they be- came the pessimists which they once called the Adventists. Continuing, he explained that the Adventists now seem to be the only ones who can face the gathering storm undisturbed. To express the hope and trust that the child of God should feel in this time Pastor Tait read from the ninety- first Psalm: "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Al- mighty." Learn how to feel a com- panionship with God, admonished the speaker, for He desires to take men into His confidence that He might reveal His plan for each one. The promise that God is "My refuge and my fortress," he said, should assure us that we are not dependent on man's inventions for safety. Crisis Promotes Religion 'The human race has come to a time of great perplexity and does not know what the next step will be, - said Pastor Tait Tuesday morning in the college chapel. He declared that under conditions such as exist today, men always turn to religion, as is true at the present time. He quoted Lloyd George's reply to the question. (Continued on page two) DRINK EVILS NOTED M. V.'s Discuss Harmful Effects of Intoxicating Liquor Alcohol—its physical and social effects—was discussed by the M. V. society in chapel, October 18. Bert McBroom, M. V. leader, intro- duced the speakers, the first of whom was Raymond Vercio, a training school pupil. He recited a poem which began and ended with, "I'm a little temperance boy, temperance all over." Robert Brown spoke on alcohol and its effects on the human body. He de- scribed the six stages of intoxication by six phrases, each beginning with a pair of d's. If a man has one milli- gram or less of alcohol per cubic cen- timeter, he is "dry and decent." If he has two, he is "delighted and devil- ish," and so on up to 6 mg. per c. c., when he is "dead drunk." Mr. Brown told of the harmful effects of alcohol on the stomach and other organs, and gave a description of the. last stage of drunkenness. Glenn Marcoe presented in a force- ful, clear-cut manner the social effects of alcohol, remarking: "A dollar spent for booze cannot be spent for shoes; A dollar spent for wet goods can- not be spent for dry goods." Mr. !Marcoe pointed out that in- stead of stimulating business, as was predicted, beer is affecting it in an un- favorable way. Most industries do not want it, because it decreases the effi- ciency of their employees, he said. He quoted from the Evening Star of Washington, D. C.,which reported that the city jails were crowded and that the majority of the week-end arrests were for intoxication. During the month of September there were more arrests in this country for intoxication than during any month in the past two years, he added. "How will drink affect traffic? is a question that we may well con- sider," Mr. Marcoe continued. "Dur- ing a recent year there were 32,500 persons killed in automobile accidents. Contrary to general belief, it is the moderate drinker, not the drunkard, who is the greatest menace to society, for he has overconfidence in himself and attempts to drive a car and runs more risks than the real drunkard." 0 HANHARDT TELLS OF GERMAN LIFE Wartburg Castle Legend Told and Picturesque Germany Vividly Shown The Wartburg castle, where Luther was confined, and other scenes from Germany country life were described by Prof. Arthur M. Hanhardt in cha- pel Monday morning. This castle was built in 1007 by Louis the Leaper. Legend says that the king was hunting and shot a stag on the top of a hill where stands the castle, and while standing there look- ing over the beautiful Thuringian for- ests, he decided to build a castle, say- ing, "Wait, mountain, you shall be- come a castle for me." Thus the name Wartburg or Wait Castle was given, said Professor Hanhardt. It was in this castle that Luther (Continued on page two) PETER DISCUSSED Dean Johnson in Vespers Advises More Consistent Faith -Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid," quoted Dr. A. W. Johnson at the Friday evening vesper service. - While the disciples were out on the stormy sea, Peter said, 'If thou art Jesus, bid me to walk on the water,' and in response to this request Christ answered, 'Come'. "Peter stepped from the boat and began walking toward Christ, but he glanced back in self satisfaction; his faith gave way, and he began to sink. Christ being merciful, He stretched forth His hands and caught him, say- ing, '0 thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?' So it is with men, reminded Doctor Johnson, all have mountain-top experiences as long as they keep their eyes on Christ, but the moment men forget Him, they have a sinking experience. At the conclusion of the discussion the students expressed the desire of having faith like Peter's. "Prayer Perfect" was sung by a girls' trio composed of the Nelson sisters: Idamae, Esther, and Mable. "Each man is the gardener of his soul. - Prizes amounting to seventy-five dollars in value are being offered in THE CLOCK TOWER contest this year, Alma Sparrow, circulation manager, announced in chapel Monday. Dis- played on the platform were the gifts offered through the courtesy of Lin- coln's business houses. Students are urged to patronize the firms which have made possible this added in- centive in the campaign. Officials state that this is the largest array of gifts offered by THE CLOCK TOWER for many years. According to the last report of the Circulation department, the prizes will range as follows: Gothic wrist watch, presented by B. L. Morse. Sheaffer pen and pencil set, pre- sented by Boyd Jewelers. Sport jacket, presented by Ben Simon ei Sons. Electric iron, 'presented by College View Lumber and Hardware Co. Pair of shoes, presented by Bucks Booteric. Handbag, presented by Hovland- Swanson Co. Flashlight, 'presented by Hornung Hardware Co. Lamp, presented by Korsmeyers Electrical Equipment Co. YOST PAINTS LOVE Eternal Torment Doctrine Contrasted With One of Mercy "One cannot fill a bucket with water by keeping everything else out of it," stated Pastor Yost Sabbath morning in the church service in order to em- phasize that Christianity is not a reli- gion of prohibitions. After reading some vivid descriptions of a horrible eternal hell fire as taught by certain sectarian groups, the speaker declared that preaching an everlasting torment to a world of sinners can never fill their hearts with the love of God. Rather than attempt scaring men into Heaven with the idea of severe pun- ishment for sin, he 'pointed out, con- version to Christianity can be accom- plished more efficiently by an explan- ation of the love of God. Pastor Yost showed that God's love is great enough to permit Him to give His own Son to save humanity from sin. This gift may seem insignifi- cant, he explained, because we think God knew that He would get Christ back; but He never got Him back as He was before the sacrifice on this earth. Pastor Yost painted to his audience that saving love of God which war- rants John 3:16. Dictionary, 'presented by Long's Book store. Lotion set, presented by Mabel Dobbs, 1227 N street. Ladies' hose, presented by Orkin Brothers. Ladies' hose, presented by Howard's. Smock, presented by The Famous. The managers plan to secure articles for men which will correspond with the last three prizes offered above. Frank Swearingen, assistant circula- tion manager, announced that a second campaign would begin immediately after chapel and would close at mid- night next Saturday. The person writing the largest number of letters turned in through the respective cam- paign leaders wins the prize in this sub-contest, he explained. Three prizes are being offered: Cabinet photograph, presented by Dole Studio. Cabinet photograph, presented by Hale Studio. Two Union College pins, presented by Union College Book store. Two fountain pens, presented by Fred Gardner & Son. Prizes in both groups may be won by the same person, Mr. Swearingen announced. All gifts are now on dis- play in the College Book store. SERVICE REQUIRED Dr. Johnson Points Out Secret of Success in Christianity To express the responsibility rest- ing on the present-day followers of Christ, Dr. Alvin Johnson in the church service on October 14 quoted the words of Paul: "I am debtor both to the Greeks and to the Barbarians, both to the wise and to the unwise . . to preach the gospel." The speaker related an incident of a man under sentence of death who was pardoned by the king; but the mes- senger failed to deliver the pardon and the prisoner suffered the ignoble death of a traitor. We must not con- demn this messenger, declared Dr. Johnson, if we fail to deliver the par- don that the King of Kings has grant- `ed to sinners—a pardon which for- gives all wrongs and saves not tem- poral life, but eternal life. ' But how can we bring the world to a crucified Saviour, he continued, unless we ourselves have found him; or how can we tell of the merciful 'forgivenes s of sin unless we have ex- perienced the forgiveness of sin? Ad- vising that a deep consecration is first needed, he admonished his hear- ers to exercise their duty in helping others prepare for the second coming of Christ. Dr. Johnson pointed out incidents of divine guidance in the lives of the early fathers of the Advent move- ment. The spirit of these pioneers must possess us as it possessed there, he declared, for if they were inspired by a belief in a soon-coming Christ, we have thrice the reason to believe it. The secret of the success of this denomination lies in its service for others, asserted the speaker, since the history of religious organizations shows that their weakness lies in their thoughtlessness of the welfare of lost humanity. In his concluding appeal Dr. John- son said, "You and I are homeward bound. We are in the very last days of the voyage. We are almost home. Let us make certain not only that we are there but that we have done all possible to take others with us." HITLER REGULATES EUROPEAN PEACE Suppression of Jews not Myth But Actuality; Adventists in Good Repute How the present dangerous situation in Europe will develop rests largely in the hands of Hitler, according to Dr. W. K. Pfeiler, former Union col- lege faculty member and now of the University of Nebraska, in an ad- dress on the German question Satur- day night in the college chapel. The dramatic exit of Germany from the League of Nations he termed undiplo- matic and tactless. This act on the part of Germany is regarded by some, he said, as the end of international cooperation, the end of long-hoped-for peace. Doctor Pfeiler, who has recently re- turned from a European tour, found (Continued on page two) SUBSCRIPTION BATTLE BEGINS McBroom and Rumpf Lead; Alma Sparrow Directs in Program for Subs STUDENTS ROUSED Annual Campaign Opened by Dialogue In Which Subscriptions Save Paper Near Death BY MARGARET FARNSWORTH The annual battle between the sexes over THE CLOCK TOWER is on. It's going to be a tough one, too, from all indications. Both sides are busy. Several speeches were made in the chapel by THE CLOCK TOWER staff. Bill Whitson, President of THE CLOCK TOWER bOard, said there were only two sources for maintaining the paper: subscriptions and advertise- ments. The school paper, he said, rep- resents Union's best, except for per- sonal contact. The campaign is to be conducted in the conventional manner, said Alma Sparrow, circulation manager; the students will work in two divisions, boys against girls, and the losing side will entertain the winners. There will be prizes for those who turn in the largest number of subscriptions, she promised. She gave out the campaign cards for each side; following with a statement of the rules of the contest: No soliciting will be allowed from faculty or students; no pooling of subscriptions will be allowed; all are eligible for prizes, excepting the fac- ulty. and the staff members. The leaders were introduced: Bert McBroom for the boys, and Annabelle Rumpf for the girls. Miss Rumpf trac- ed the history of the coming campaign in her crystal which fell from her hands and was broken at the crucial moment of seeing the final figures. Jeanette McKibben, in her speech, said that what THE CLOCK TOWER needs is news, and what the staff needs is encouragement as well as criticism. An interesting dialogue given by several students was put on at the opening of chapel. Doctor Marshall Rockwell, assisted by Dr. Kenneth Bunnell, and by nurses Mabel Gosnell and Mrs. Christensen, endeavored successfully to revive Mr. Clock Tower (Henry Sonnenberg), who was in a serious state of collapse. The remedy, they discovered, was a very large dose of girls' and boys' sub- scriptions intermixed. Florence Lucille Terry, as Mother Union, was happy to see her son revived by the stimu- lating tonic. UNION COLLEGE RECOGNIZED AS SENIOR COLLEGE At a recent meeting of the S. D. A. Board of Regents held during the Fall council Union college was recognized as being a fully accredited sixteen- grade senior college. Other denomina- tional schools receiving similar accre- ditation were Walla Walla college, and Emmanuel Missionary college. Pacific (.Inion college received like recognition last year. OCTOBER By A. DEAN HICKOK October, how you come a-frosting And brightly tint each leaf! You deck the trees in garments gay For season all too brief! Some leaves will blush a crimson red And some will yellow fade, Until the verdant glen becomes A color promenade. The foliage every color blends In one grand picture rare, Gleaming like enchanted scenes From dreamland forests fair. October, why come you a-blowing And brush the scene away? Why despoil such autumn beauty With frolic and your play? Do you seek to ruin our pleasure In one rough and chilling breath? Or in such queer way remind us We all must look for death? What'er it be we can not tell, But this we surely know: He who numbers every leaf Will watch where'er we go.

WORRY DE LUXE Ordinarily, one does not have to go to the library at any specified time, as he must go to worship or breakfast, classes or work. The library is the place where one goes when he finds it fully convenient to do so. At the time chosen to be in the library one could as well recline in the parlor, go for a walk, or visit the neighbors across the hall; but having several assignments to be worked out, one prefers to relieve himself of some worry, and he goes to the library to study. But freqently after arriving there, other stifled desires cause one to behave himself unstudiously. These desires seem to vary, corresponding with personal- ities. There is the student who arrives in the library, chooses a sunny corner, folds his arms for his head on the table, and goes to sleep. For others the windows in the library afford a grand country view, with pleasant dreams, for long periods to come. The more gregarious one seats himself beside an acquaintance, and the couple exchange anecdotes until two more students join, when the four decide to go and buy candy bars. The comic strips in the daily papers lure many a humorously inclined collegian. Unable to settle down to his book, a fellow may dart in and out of the library at brief intervals, thinking of firs( one detail and then another which he needs to attend to outside of the li- brary. Some habitually watch interesting processes carried on by others across the room. The bright books with alluring titles on the open shelves may take almost an hour's time of the curious soul, though not even one copy is removed for reading outside of the library. Most people accomplish things in the library, however. The exceptional persons do not. The room is full of frowning brows and firm lips over big books with fine print. Everywhere pens jiggle rapidly from one end of the note-book leaves to the other, Thoughtful eyes look out from cheeks pushed up with the fists on which they rest. Quietness prevails. G. M. CHRIST AND LIFE A group of Unionites recently 'took as their motto a state- ment which was quoted in the college chapel during the week of prayer: "Christ was never elated by applause nor dejected by censure or disappointment." Such magnanimity of character as He displayed is not ordinarily developed without harrowing ex- periences in learning how to live with one's fellow men. Classmates are the best teachers. They will not tolerate one's every caprice or encourage conceit as fathers and mothers often unconsciously do; they will rather "show one up" and. carry one to his true level. Then it is that one must learn to fall gracefully and be up on one's feet again for the next lesson. The college affords that necessary training between the home life and the work of the world. It trains one to stand on his own feet, to meet life's problems with a level head. Better for us to learn the lesson while we are yet in school among friends than to wait until we are cast loose on an uncharitable world where we may feel the sting more keenly. F. L. According to Robert Brown, in a discussion of alcohol re- cently given, denatured alcohol may cause blindness or death. hat of the knowledge which we rush madly about to obtain? Are we not apt to become drunk with it? And what if it is de- natured? Will not intellectual blindness be the result? Even as the alcohol is absorbed more slowly in the system of the man who is not an habitual drinker and causes drunkenness so will too Liuch knowledge confuse the man who has not habitually studied alid used his thinking powers regularly in his every-day life. We must be sane drinkers at the fountain of pure knowledge. Bigger and better souls must inevitably be the result of thg regular weekly six hours of music at the ,college. The result as revealed by an approximate estimate of the number of minutes of music during various clubs, societies, assqmblies, and religious services are evidence that the students and faculty are cooperat- ing with President Andreasen in satisfying his fancy for music. Congregational singing, instrumental music, and vocal selections as well as entire musical programs were considered in arriving at the six-hour estimate for one week of customary Union college life. We prefer that the students practice their speech lessons at other times than during the musical programs given in the chapel.

What we like about most people is that they're so 'human. You may be ever so clever, but you can't spoof a time clock. The Gong Polisher says it isn't so much the ignorance of a student as the number of words he uses to show it that irritates the faculty. Meet the Gong Polisher, the un- dercover man on our mythical staff. A man can't walk very far with both feet off the ground. The S. H. P. C. held its first irreg- ular meeting Saturday night. Bert Mc- Broom was unanimously elected to the club. It is rumored among the mem- bers that he may be elected Second Patriarch. Bert is a trifle too imma- ture for that office, but give him time. No, no, Royce, an excuse blank is not the look on the face when you ask for one. We wonder how much time the per- son gets who knocks on the steam pipes in the morning to make us think the radiator is hot. We may ask the Gong Polisher. The singing in the chapel is, we think, about as good as any in the country. Sometime, instead of singing, just listen. You'll get a thrill. But don't try it all at once.

Tait Leads Prayer Week (Continued from page one) The world is on the verge of a time of trouble, such as has not been before, declared Pastor Tait, and it behooves all young people to stand for the religion of Jesus during this crisis, for they will surely be in the conflict. Only those who are faithful will be a part of redeemed Israel, he added, and as a source of comfort he quoted the words of Isaiah 43: "0 Israel, fear not, for f have redeemed thee; thou art mine." Recommends More Reading Books written by Mrs. E. G. White are great helps in seeing God's glory through the Bible, said Pastor Tait irI his address October 11, Passages showing Christ's character in The Desire of Ages, one of the two finest books of the Spirit of Prophecy, in Pastor Tait's opinion, were read and discussed. From the chapter, "The Feast at Simon's House," the speaker pointed out the fine background Mrs. White gives for the parable of the two debtors. Here it is pointed out that Simon had once influenced Mary to sin, yet he rebelled against the favor shown her by Jesus, but the Master only told Simon a story to convince him, and did not expose his wickedness to the others present. Such a background makes Christ seem compassionate, Pastor Tait indicated. Calm Attitude to be Sought "Let not your heart be troubled: believe in God; believe also in me." Pastor Tait quoted from the four- teenth chapter of John, in chapel Oc- tober 12. Today the world is distres- sed, perplexed, and discouraged, he said, and we must look up, for the outlook is not so good as the uplook. "He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do, because I go unto the Father," the speaker quoted and continued, "Through faith we can do more for God than we have ever dreamed of." These words may appropriately be accepted by the stud- ents of Union college, Paster Tait declared. All Christian Students -Testify "This is one of the most beautiful scenes that ever came into my life," stated Pastor Tait in the college chapel October 13, as most of the students stood in response to his re- quest for all Christian students to rise; "If people would only place their trust upon Jesus there would be no failures, but so many do not have confidence in the divine Name," said the speaker. "If students would spend much of their time walking with the Saviour, their minds would more readily adapt themselves to new prob- lems." • Andreasen Speaks Evenings Ten attributes essential to Chris- tianity—kindness, courtesy, modesty, courage, honesty, cheerfulness, purity, peacefulness, stability, and catience— were discussed by President Andrea- sen October 10. A real Christian is one who can live peacefully with oth- er people, he said. "Is life worth while?" President Andreasen asked the students in chapel October 11. Answering his 'own ques- tion, he named friendship, work, mu- sic, and art as factors which make life worth living. Different people enjoy different phases of these things, he fur- ther stated. It is only in the next world that perfection is realized, he pointed out. The key of the book of Hebrews, President Andreascn pointed out on October 12, is the word "better." The Christian way is not all upward but has its "downs" as well as its "ups," he said, and there is always something for which to strive. Outstanding Sabbaths Described "When Sabbath comes, our minds always go back to the first Sabbath in the beginning of the earth, and for- ward to the first Sabbath on the new earth. All the sin of this old world lies between them," said President Andreasen on Friday evening, Octo- ber 13, in the last meeting of the week. "Christ said, 'Let there be light,' and there was light. On the first Fri- day evening Adam and Eve walked on the new earth. For the first time they saw the heavens, and darkness revealed what the light had concealed. "Then there was the first Friday night after sin had entered. Yet, Adam and 'Eve might worship at the gate of Eden, and there was the promise of redemption. With what feelings they must have entered into that wor- ship. Phone 48-W X-Ray Diagnosis Res. 15-W FRANK T. LOPP Dental Surgeon 203-4 Hornung Building Opposite South Hall KINDY OPT. CO .

He had finished the work of creation on the sixth day. Likewise the work of redemption. Christ Himself said, 'It is finished'. "Mrs. White says of the last Sab- bath on earth, 'The decree will have been given that he who will not wor- 'ship must be killed.' Some will have spent their days just preceding this in dungeons or in the mountains. It will seem that there is no way of es- cape. Apparently, before the next Sab- bath—Christ has come! Fear, death, trembling will be over; the first resur- rection will have taken place, and Christ will have come. The elect will have been saved. "The next Sabbath is the first in 'heaven. Everything will be perfect; and at the end of the millennium, the conflagration will take place, a world afire and on that world sin will be forever destroyed. Then Christ will create a new heavens and a new earth, and the promise of no more sin will be true." Germany's Beauties Told (Continued from page one) translated the Bible into German. The room where Luther worked is inspir- ational by its very plainness, Pro- fessor Hanhardt continued. It is still possible, he said, to see the ink spot on the wall where Luther is supposed to have thrown his inkwell at the head of the devil. This castle is not only a Protestant center but also a Catholic center, ac- cording to Professor Hanhardt. Leg- end says that Elizabeth, wife of Louis IV, who lived there in the thirteenth century, enjoyed doing works of char- ity, but her husband forbade her this pleasure. One day he saw her leave the castle carrying a basket, and ask- ing to see the contents, he found it filled with beautiful roses. This mir- acle is supposed to have brought about the conversion of Louis IV, the speak- er said. The village churches, Professor Hanhardt stated, usually stand in the center of the settlement, this being especially true of the central and southern parts of Germany. One could travel for miles, he continued, and never be out of sight of a church tower. In closing Professor Hanhardt quoted those inspiring lines from Goethe in description of the Thurin- gian Forest: "O'er all the hilltops Is quiet now. In all the tree tops Hearest thou Hardly a breath. The birds are asleep in the trees. Wait, soon like these Thou, too, shalt rest." 0 Pfeiler Reveals Hitler ,-- amtinued from page one) a discouraging situation in Germany, he said.

He was a missionary in China five years and since his return has been engaged in pastoral work in Missoula, Mon- tana. human weakness and the knowledge of psychology have succeeded in get- ting thousands to see in Hitler the saviour of world civilization. Hitler feels that he is a tool in the hands of Providence, the speaker continued, and although he has a rather con- fused mind, he is sincere in his beliefs and his efforts. If the principles set forth by Wood- row Wilson had been followed, the world would not have seen this great catastrophe in Europe, Doctor Pfeiler declared, but human nature is stronger than all common sense. The Versailles treaty was only a continuation of war spirit, he said, and Germany was sup- pressed year after year until the situa- tion became desperate. Taxation was unbelievably high, inflation came, banks failed, there were riots and strikes, the Protestant churches were empty, the ideal of womanhood was torn down, and atheism and commu- nism swept over the nation. Hitler, the speaker asserted, said that communism and socialism are the creation of the Jew. The oppression of the Jews in Germany is not a myth, according to Doctor Pfeiler, for their life is made miserable. "Equality before the law has ceased to be a principle in Germany. They openly speak about inequality," the speaker stated. "The Jew has had to close his shop because no one will buy of him. He is barred from the public schools and universities and is thoroughly an outcast. - The speaker pointed out, however, that the antagonism against the Jews has some ground because thousands of Jews drifting into Germany from Russia and other places at the close of the war, soon dominated many of the leading professions, and by their attitude laid a foundation for the anti- Semitic sentiment which has permeated the nation. Hitler has tampered with religion, doing away with the Old Testament, saying it is Jewish folk-lore, and sub- stituting in its place German mythol- ogy and tales of old Germany, to be put in the schools as a basis for the New Testament. Doctor Pfeiler said. 'While the other Protestant churches arc practically dead, the speaker noted that the Adventists, because of their welfare work, have full freedom and are in good standing.

Pastor Tait received his edu- ciicion in a iviecnocust c..,iiege ill 11,1- nuis and in me oaptisc i neological seminary of Chicago. he was licensed to preach at twenty-two years of age, and ordained when just twenty-five years old. He labored as a minister in Illinois until 1891, when he went to Battle Creek to connect with the Gen- eral conference for six years. Prom 1897 until the present time, with the 'exception of two years during which 'he taught Bible at Pacific Union col- lege, Pastor Tait has been connected with the editorial department of the Pacific press, where he is chief editor of the J'igns of the t lines. he has had intimate association with all but one of our General Conference presidents, 'and with all of our 'pioneer denoad- national leaders from the time of John l3yington. At the end of the interview, Pastor Tait was asked for his impressions of Union college as compared with other colleges. Every student should have seen and heard him as he leaned forward and answered in a deliberate, sincere tone: "Do you know, I have been im- pressed here at Union with the sin- cerity and the definite earnestness of the students and the faculty. I have not met a faculty anywhere that has impressed me as being more spiritual than this one. They are making spiritual things first in this school. - 0 Pre-Medic Lives In Unique House By BEATRICE Ross "Let me live in a house by the side of the road And be a friend to man." B. D. Fickess is a friend to man all right but his house isn't beside the road. It is in a corner of the grove, just east of North hall. Haven't you noticed the little brown and white trailer-house there in the corner? Let Buddy Fickess, age 3, tell you about it. "Sure, I live here with mom and daddy, and sister, and that's all. I like it here." Mr. Fickess, Buddy's father and also owner of the house, told us that his house is sixteen feet long and eight feet wide. It is divided into two rooms, a kitchenette and a living room. Besides the necessary furniture, Mr. Fickess has a library of about one hundred fifty volumes. 'Mr. Fickess, who is a registered nurse and who since 1918 has been technician and anesthetist at the Iowa sanitarium, Nevada, Iowa, will finish his pre-medical course at Union and continue his studies at Loma Linda. He plans to live in this same little house during much of his school career. If you haven't noticed this little house, look it up, because it is one of the new places of interest on Union college campus.

DICK Ten men, selected from a large volunteer group of life-term convicts, recently submitted to encephalitis (sleeping sickness) infection in order for scientists, through careful study of each case, to seek a cure for this dreaded disease. These men had much to gain—freedom in case they sur- vived—and little to lose. But you and I and the other 99,- 999,998 inhabitants of the United States are unwittingly acting as test animals in a gigantic experiment with poisons, conducted by the food, drug, and cosmetic manufacturers, Arthur Kallet and F. J. Schlink show in their book, "100,000,000 Guinea Pigs," re- cently added to the college library. The authors, both technical experts of long experience and both connect- ed with Consumers' Research, Inc., not only report dangerous and largely unsuspected conditions affecting the health and safety of all, but outline remedies for the evils disclosed. It may be a shock to discover that many widely-advertised foods, drugs, and cosmetics (which the authors men- tion by name) contain poison or are absolutely worthless for the purposes advertised; that perhaps one's favorite germicide will not kill germs; that the hamburger surreptitiously bought at the corner "hot-dog" stand may be stale, partially decomposed meat gen- erously dosed with sodium sulphite, a veritable embalming fluid; that the ap- ple a day eaten to keep the doctor away is permitted to carry as a resi- due from spraying two and a half times the safe limit of arsenic; that a well-known toothpaste is two-fifths potassium chlorate, a poison responsi- ble for dozens of deaths; that a widely- advertised freckle remover contains a powerful and irritating caustic poison, although the product is described by the manufacturers as "absolutely harm- less to the most delicate complexion"; that the lives of patients in over three hundred American hospitals are daily being endangered by impure, sub- standard ether. Yet these and many other revelations are made in "100,- 000,000 Guinea Pigs. - Those who are inquisitive will en- joy this sensational volume. EVERYBODY Who wears clothes needs it!

Open on Sunday Morse Studio Jewler, Photographer, Stationer Opposite South Hall 1933 Graduate Sticks to Union BY LEETA ANDERSON It was with strange emotions that I registered in Union college this fall. In the past I had always looked for- ward 'to registration days as being great fun. But this year I was afraid that no one would care to see me back, except the business office. I felt out of place consulting advisers and signing up for lower division classes. Especially did I feel out of place at the times when I was asked, "Didn't you graduate last year? How does it come that you are back?" But in spite of all this I was really happy until the day of Dean John- son's chapel talk. In proving that Union's graduates were worth while, he cited the number of last year's class who now hold positions. None of the self esteem I had acquired at 'graduation was left after that. Notwithstanding my decided feeling of inferiority I cannot help being glad that I am in Union's halls again as a student. To be a student in Union college at any time is a privilege. To be a student after one has graduated is a blessing. Union has been a severe task-mis- tress. Her lessons have been hard and often long. Her tasks have been ardu- ous. At times there seemed to be no cause for her severeness. But she is a loving Alma Mater. Within her diffi- cult tasks I find she had a 'gift for me. She has given me beautiful friend- ships—friendships which I shall cher- ish and which will inspire me through- out life. She has awakened in me worthwhile thoughts and lofty ideals. And she has taught me to reverence God and Christianity. It is impossible for any one to have spent four years in Union without ' 'having been inspired by her nobleness) and without having had some of Union's worthwhileness instilled into . his character. By LOUISE "If I were giving a rule to young people, I would say: Undertake to keep busy intellectually. If a person isn't developing his brain, his body goes to pieces. Men of great brain power usually live longer than men who do not have it. A man may be an invalid, but if he works his brain hard, he will live a lot longer than if he does not. You've got to keep 'cranking' brain cells in order to keep alive." Pastor A. 0. Tait, that young-old veteran who won his way into the heart of every student during his brief stay at Union college, was being in- terviewed. The paragraph above came in response to a request for a guid- ing principle that he could recommend to students for every-day use. His first counsel, he said, was to study closely the Bible; and he added that students can also get more help than they ordin- arily realize from studying the writ- ings of Mrs. E. G. White. Then fol- lowed his advice to keep busy intel- lectually, a principle which he him- self has followed throughout life. We know that it must be A good idea be- cause he is considered among the keenest of men intellectually. The next question also was on a problem that interests Union college students. This question called for his opinion as to whether Adventist young people today should prepare them- selves for future work in the denom- ination or if they were justified in seeking outside employment. After mentioning his dislike for my use of the word - outside," he said: "Mrs. White has a reassuring statement to the effect that no more surely has God a place for us in heav- en than He has a place for us here on earth. I think we should keep that in mind. Then I like that statement in Mark 13:34, Revised Version [He quotes the Revised Version frequent- ly] : 'He gave authority to his ser- vants, and to every man his work.' The first and most important thing for a young person to do is to develop a definite, sane Christian spirituality. The Lord will then lead him into His work. Of course we are bewildered, "bemused," to use Sir Phillip Gibbs' expression, by conditions today, but our young people need to have con- fidence in God's promises. They will get hold of that idea more and more, I believe. "It does not follow that a young man or z young woman must have something definite in connection with our organized work. If the individual is following God's leadership, the Lord will show him what he should do. As to our young people going into public school work, all depends on the individual. Christ's instruction is very definite—we are to be in the world, but not (of the world. Daniel was taken into Babylon, the most wicked place in the world, amidst the greatest temptations ever to beset a young man. Yet he has been influenc- ing the world ever since because of the life he lived and because of the contacts he had with his God. It all depends on that. If we are going to be Christians, we can stand the strain anywhere; and if we are not going to be Christians, it does not make much difference where we are." The truth of this statement makes a deep impression when we realize For a haircut that is becoming to you you should be coming to us.

The group was first led to the grove on the southeast corner of the campus, where the only choke- cherry and rosebud, or Judas, trees on the campus are located. The group then proceeded northwest across the campus, down Bancroft avenue a block, and back to the administration building, making leaf collections and notations. No Causation for Evil, Says Nylander in Talk . "Although scientists claim to have found a cause for everything, they cannot find a cause for evil; evil is an effect without a cause," declared Joseph Nylander in his sermonette on the origin of evil given before the Gospel Workers' seminar Friday night. In the beginning, pointed out the speaker, Satan had stood next to Christ among the heavenly beings. He was chorister of the angels and was wisest of the angelic host, but be- cause of his pride and a desire to ex- alt himself above God, he was debased and cast out of heaven, and from that time was called "Satan," which means "deceiver," said Mr. Nylander, bas- ing his remarks on Ezekiel 28 and Isaiah 14:10. The speaker contrasted the love of God with the love of self. He remark- ed further that when Christ was cru- cified it was as though God himself was also suffering. Mr. Nylander urg- ed his hearers to accept God's love because it is not God's will that any should perish. Park to be New Campus Attraction this Year Improvement of the college campus which will result in a sylvan park, is under way. Trees are being dug out to thin the grove on the northeast corner of the campus so that grass will grow there. Plans are that grass will be sown in the spring after the ground has been prepared. Dean A. W. Johnson also stated that possibly a few deer would be kept in an inclosure in the park. Thinning of the grove has been at the advice of the forestry department of the University of Nebraska. Be- tween thirty and forty trees are be- ing removed, cut, and sold for fuel. Sabbath School Keeps Mission Spirit Alive Mission work in the Infer-American field was discussed in Sabbath school October 21 by Donald Pohle, who has spent a number of years in South and Central America with his father, who is a missionary. The review of the previous Sabbath school lesson was presented by 'Professor Little, who emphasized the practical theology in- volved in the lessons for this quarter. Robert Brown sang "Spirit of God," by Heidlinger, and the orchestra play- ed "Apple Blossoms," by Roberts, and "Intermezzo," by Moscagni. The scripture reading and opening prayer were given by Della Rice. Man was made in God's spiritual image as well as in His physical im- age, and this spiritual likeness stimu- lates his doing good, Miss Keith de- clared in the Sabbath-school lesson review on October 14. Adeline Voth discussed mission needs in Mexico. Paul Miller read the scrip- ture reading and offered prayer. ANDREASEN SPEAKS College President Tells Parents of God's Sympathy "Parents may be assured that the Heavenly Father knows and under- stands their problems, for 'I have nourished and brought up children,' said the Lord, 'and they have rebelled against me'," President M. L. Andre- asen told the Home and School asso- ciation, October 10. "There are some things that God cannot do," he said, "for He will not force a man's will. He has limited Him- self. 'Why should ye be stricken any more? Ye will revolt more and more,' the Lord said. But there is not any- thing he will hold back if he can save one." Parents should not feel that their work has utterly failed if their children do not always do what they should, the speaker said, for the assurance is that if a child is trained up in the way he should go, when he is old he will not depart from it. At times seeming failure to listen to his parent's counsel may be only the child's attempt to work out his own philosophy of life, and parents should not expect to mold all children after the same mold, Pres- ident Andreasen stated. Isaac and Jacob were cited as having entirely different characteristics. Isaac with all his goodness, the speaker pointed out, lacked those elements of character which Jacob, even though he passed through a period of waywardness and deceit, possessed and which enabled him to prevail with God. "Therefore, parents and teachers should take courage as they attempt to train the children entrusted to their care, for there is no more delicate work," the speaker concluded.
