Last week the Women's Jewish
Prayer group received ten dollars
from the religious council to carry
on their work. This money will be
used in securing gospels, tracts,
etc.
The women are now sending gos-pels
to the Jews in New York
state. They plan in the near fut-ure
to reach as many Jews as pos-sible
in the Twin Cities.
"We know that God's word is
sharper than any two-edged sword
and that it shall not return unto
Him Void. We need to pray that as
His word is given out—as seed is
sown it will not fall upon thorny,
rocky ground, but that it will find
root and some soul will be brought
from darkness into His marvelous
light, "stated Evelyn Sundberg, dir-ector
of this group.

"A World Outlook is Necessary
For Present Day Living,"
. . SAYS DR. HERRMANN
"The socio-historico trends of today are indicated in the light of
the Word of God," stated Dr. John Herrmann, in an interview Friday.
A pastoral psychiatrist, director of the Christ Youth League of America
and pastor of a Chicago church, he cited six great national problems
today. These are unemployment, social security, the military problem,
world hunger, world trade, and economic finances. These are serious
difficulties to be faced now and
after the war.
He said there are two decided
viewpoints in looking at these ser-ious
difficulties which are world
trends. One is to be so engrossed
in trying to change the world that
it is impossible to see Christ's
place in human affairs.
The other extreme is to be so
wrapped in personal Christian liv-ing
that one does not see the
world in which he lives.
A middle course is that of a
Christian revolutionist, emphasized
Dr. Herrmann.
"We muffed the ball, as a Chris-tian
Church after the first world
war—with the resulting wild 20's
and the crash of '29."
What will happen today? Stu-dents
here, with a conservative
background, need a WORLD OUT-LOOK.
Dr. Herrmann left this parting
shot, "Be as progressive as the
hour in which you live."

The Christian's Title-Deed
To Spiritual Property
The word that expresses the way to begin a Christian life, its con-tinuance,
in fact, the very center of all that Christianity means to a
Christian is "faith." It is an abstract term that has been explained by
many expressive, concrete illustrations to aid the Christian in under-standing
this' vital part of his life; yet, some of us still wonder what
faith really is.
Heb. 11:1 gives us a description of this term as an introduction to
the great "Faith Chapter." it is not a definition but a helpful description.
"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things
not seen." Substance comes from the word meaning substructure or
foundation which glides into the meaning of assurance. That which has
foundation gives us confidence or assurance. Thus our faith is "the as-surance
of things hoped for."
It is interesting to note that some time ago in archeological dig-gings,
a manuscript was uncovered which used this term. A lady in those
early days who owned some land was writing to another person about
this property and used this word in the sense of "title-deed". A title-deed
gives us legal claim to whatever property is stated in it. It cannot
be wrested from us. Our faith is our title-deed or legal claim to that
for which we have asked in the prayer of faith. Faith is our spiritual
eyesight. It is our soul apprehending what our senses cannot apprehend.
It makes the future vagueness a present reality. What a wonderful
promise for us to make our own. "Now faith is the title-deed or (assur-ance)
of things hoped for, the evidence (or proof) of things not seen."
—Gordon G. Johnson

By Henry Wingblade
A reception to service men had
been tendered during the last
World War. A good time "had been
had" by all. The evening was corn:
ing to a close. A colonel asked a
younger officer to express to the
hosts the appreciation of the sol-diers.
The young officer did express
appreciation most warmly. Then,
after a pause, he added: "We are
now about to embark for the bat-tlefront
and the trenches. Some of
us go to certain death. Is there
some one here who can tell us how
to die?"
There was silence. Each one
wondered as to who might reply to
the pertinent question. Softly a
young woman slipped forward to
the platform and began to sing the
aria from the Elija oratorio: "Rest
in the Lord." There, was the suf-ficient
answer.
Moses nestled in Mount Horeb,
in the cleft of the rock—and be-held
God in His awful grandeur
and glory. Some think that Elijah
nestled in the same cleft when he
heard "the still small voice." There
is for each and all a Rock of Ages.
In the avalanche of the French
Revolution when the mob, like wild
beasts, ran bellowing down to
break open the Bastile, some one
put the words succinctly: "He who
would withstand an attack like
that must have his feet rooted in
the Eternal."
During the still high tide of the
flood, Noah sent forth a dove from
the ark, but she came back again—
for she found no resting place ex-cept
in the ark.
"Fade, fade each earthly joy,—
Jesus is mine.
Break every tender tie—
Jesus is mine.
Dark is the wilderness,
There is no resting place,
Jesus alone can bless—
Jesus is Mine."
From Kansas Farmer
To Bethel Prexy
Our venerable president, Henry
Conrad Wingblade, w a s born at
Waterville, Kansas, where he at-tended
grade school. He lived on
a farm, and in the summer he en-joyed
gleaning in the field after
the harvesters had taken what
they desired, selling the gleanings
for a little money, just- as all the
other boys did.
When he was ten years old, it
was his privilege to go to Sweden
with his family to visit relatives.
The outstanding incident of this
trip which he still remembers is
that of his ship's hitting the rocks
off Scotland in a fog. When they
were told that they would sink, his
mother comforted the children so
that they shouldn't cry by telling
them they were going to be with
Jesus, and that they should pray.
However, the captain discovered
they were near land, and told them
they would not perish. The faith
of the children was so great that
they were almost sorry that they
were not going to Heaven.
Because of the Christian train-ing
he received, he was converted
at an early age and baptized in
t h e Western Avenue Baptist
Church of Topeka, Kansas, in 1900.
He entered into many activities in
that church and also in the Elim
Baptist Church of Minneapolis
where he attended upon coming to
the Twin Cities.

Marjorie Porter: The spiritual
life of Bethel will be deepened
when each student draws closer to
Christ and the Word and consec-rates
his heart and life fully to
Christ.
Clarence Sah lin: Our spiritual
life at Batnel could be improved if
everyon?, of us Christians would
actually go into the world and do
personal work for our Savior.
Helen Heitzman: By a more con-sistant
Christian life on the part of
each individual student. More pri-vate
prayer would bring this
about.
Connie Warner: In my estima-tion
if each student would "per-sonally"
give Christ tItc; pre-emin-ence
He requires, in daily living,
word, action, and deed, the spirit-ul
life could not help but grow.
Gladys Biller: When each stud-ent
at Bethel allows the TA, ord of
'God to sink into his heart and fill
the deep reservoirs of his soul,
then the spiritual life will be im-proved.
Paul Theobold: A panel discus-sion
held once a week and taken
part in by a cross-section of the
Bethel students, upon questions
of Christian ethics in entertain-ment,
sports and prayer.
Ladell Erickson: A personal,
daily Bible study emphasis is need-ed
to enable all of us students to
firmly ground our spiritual lives.
Howard Olson: More prayer is
needed.
Verna Jorgensen: I feel that our
daily devotions have a vital part
in our spiritual life.. In order to
grow in grace we must be much
alone. More can be accomplished
in one hour alone with God than
by days in society.

Guess Who
Four years from gallery to the
bench (basketball, -of course)
might be the title of his autobiog-raphy.
He is a middleman in the
Seminary and fills the pulpit every
Sunday at Glen Terrace Chapel in
St. Paul. In 1938 he came to Bethel
and shared a girl friend with Glen
Anderson. After -four years of see-ing
games from the gallery he has
reached the basketball floor and
now watches them from the bench.
He spent last summer in the Gos-pel
trailer, traveling through Wis-consin
and Minnesota. In general,
he enjoys life and his expression
of apology is characterized by the
words, "I hate myself." If you
haven't guessed him by now, why
he is the tall red-headed president
of the middlemen class and he
hails from the east, or, to be exact
from Bristol, Connecticut.

Hold Election
Last Wednesday, Bethel students
held elections to fill vacant offices.
Ethel Hale will take over new
duties on the Clarion as editor-in-chief,
while Carol Rexion will serve
as assistant editor.
Gwendolyn Parson was elected
to be assistant editor of the Spire
helping Dana Larson who was
chosen last year to edit the '42-'43
annual.
Bethel's Religious Council sec-retary
is Eunice Anderson.
Today's Question
How much do we spend for War
Stamps in proportion to the
amount spent on cokes, candy, cof-fee,
etc? The amount spent for con-fections
is $25 a week according to
last year's Clarion and it is pro-bably
the same this year.
People in France are paying 50
cents for one egg once a month
when they can get it. Would they
buy cokes, candy, sodas and ice
cream or would they buy War
Stamps first?

"It's John"
The Gremlins are making a big
week out of Founder's Week. As
all of the old grads come back and
those not-so-familiar faces appear
it is jut like old times.
Herbert, he's my pet gremlin,
sits on my shoulder and talks all
day long. As I walk the halls and
meet the friends, whom I haven't
seen for just ages, Herbert whis-pers
in my ear, "His name is John-son,
his name is Johnson." And of
course I call back to my resources
of names and I just can't fit the
right one on that old friend's face.
"Hello there, Rev. Johnson," I
greet in desperation. And to my
utter dismay here it is Rev. Ander-son.
"John, JJohn, John," whispers
Herbert. "It is good to see you
John," I say. "Sorry old boy, but
Hans is the name."
In utter dispair I crawl back in-to
my shell and don't greet those,
not-so-familiar ones, resolving ne-ver
again to make that mistake.

Waldorf Trips Indians
Final Score 39-28
Third Tribe Loss
The Waldorf casabamen invaded
the Indian reservation and carried
off the Tribe's scalp after suffer-ing
defeat themselves the previous
night to Concordia. The first quar-ter
score of 9-9 indicated a close
and interesting game but later
periods proved differently. Both
teams played bad ball but the Be-thel
warriors committed the great-est
number of fouls and lost two
players through those committals.
The half-time score was 15-13
but from then on the scoring was
mostly by Waldorf. In the third
quarter the Indians were outscored
9-4 and in the last quarter the dif-ference
was less, being bettered
only 13-11. This made a final score
39-28 with the Waldorf cagers on
top.
Rusterbakke, the Waldorf pilot,
took scoring honors with 13 tallies
and Bergh, a team mate, followed
with 12. For Bethel the honors
were shared by Swanson and Hails
each having 8 counters.

I don't have much news this
time. The boys have been behav-ing
pretty well. But with this full
moon coming up perhaps squad-room
discussions and shower-room
banter will be a little more re-vealing.
We shall have to wait. I
once heard a professor state in
coldblooded, heartless, matter-of-fact
way that a full moon has a
certain effect upon the tide. Bro-thers
and sisters, take it from me,
it is of experimental interest to
note that it has its effect upon the
"untide" just as well.
Incidentally, the squad is begin-ning
to wonder just who is suppos-ed
to benefit from the squad room.
A-s it is, everybody uses the room
anytime of the week and the fel-lows
aren't sure how safe it is to
leave anything there. The squad
would appreciate it, coach, if the
room would be kept closed except
for those out for basketball. It
isn't that we don't want to share
the room, but it's disgusting to
come down and find your clothes
and shoes either damp or missing
because someone has just used
them. One pair of leather shoes
has been missing since the navy
game. In addition, with young fel-lows
from the neighborhood who
are strangers to us hanging around
it isn't safe to make the room
available for everybody.
I'll have to hurry now to get to
the bench so let me get this in. At-tendance
has been very poor at our
recent games. What's the matter
with our student body? It can't be
that they are studying. They are
wasting too much time otherwise.
It seems to me we could have a
little more school spirit both in
attendance and cheering. How
about some cooperation! This goes
for the faculty as well. The only
member of the faculty to consist-ently
show up is Coach Johnson. I
should say a word for C. E. Carl-son
also. However, the faculty in-terest
and support from both the
Sem and College make the students
feel a little ashamed. Let's all get
together for the rest of the season
for fellowship, school spirit, and
support of our team. It may be a
long time before we'll have any
more athletic competition.
Squaws Are Taken
By St. Bernard Team
To make the name of Bethel go
down to two defeats in one even-ing,
the squaws dropped a contest
with the St. Bernard squad by the
score of 28-26. The Bethelites
seemed doomed to a terrific squel-ching
by indications of the half-time
score of 12-4 but in the sec-ond
half things began to click for
the Bethel girls and an almost suc-cessful
rally was staged. The score
was tied but an edge couldn't be
taken and maintained at any time.
The height of the St. Bernard for-wards
proved quite an advantage
as well as their more accurate
passing.
High-scoring honors went to the
diminuitive Bethel forward, Peggy
Appelquist, who scored 11 goals
for 22 points. Alberts, for St.
Bernard, gathered 12 counters and
Groess followed with 10.

Nevy Conquers
Bethel Tribe
In the absence of Coach John-son,
the Bethel tribe took on the
Naval Cadets in a contest last
Tuesday night that cost the In-dians
a defeat to the tune of 51-38.
Scoring was relatively 'even for
three quarters which is seen by
the score of 26-24 half-time score
when the tribe had the lead. The
sailor's better condition together
with the two absences on the Be-thel
team may have been deciding
factors.
In scoring, Dowden of the Navy
team took top honors with 18
points followed by Mossing also of
the sailors with 16. For Bethel,
Hails was top man with 12. tallies
and Swanson next with 11.
The preliminary also went to the
Navy by a score of 40-34. The Navy
scoring was more evenly distri-buted
but the pick-up team of Be-thel
took scoring honors with Ny-man
gathering 14 points and Paul-son
12.
