"The Day
of March
Has Come"
BY PRESIDENT H. C. WINGBLADE
"Grow old along with me!
The best is yet to be,—
The last of life, for which the first was made;
Our times are in His hand
Who saith, "A whole I planned,
"Youth shows but half;
Trust God; see all—nor be afraid."
It was Robert Browning who sang thus, and he knew well of what
he sang. Read the whole poem "Rabbi Ben Ezra" over and over again.
Years ago I heard Governor Gifford Pinchot tell of a young man
who knew exactly when he would reach his twenty-first birthday, indeed
the very hour. It was to be two in the morning.
The family went to bed and to sleep, but not he. Though in bed,
he watched the time, and just at two he leaped out of bed and shouted
"Man in the house! Man in the house!" The family, aroused, asked
where?
"Here! Here!" shouted the young man, pointing to himself. "Twen-ty-
one! Man in the House!"
Well, it is a wonderful thing to be ready to go—to reach the day of
"Commencement."
What shall we then do with the day and with the future days?
Raymond Robbins came back from the gold fields of Alaska with one
million dollars he had dug out with his two hands—and still young. He
looked about for a commission.
Seeing with his own eyes thieves being made out of drunkards'
children, his blood boiled and he threw himself into the fight for the
child life of Chicago.
Wendell Phillips, the brilliant young lawyer, was all ready and look-ing
for a client. He saw a slave child for sale—and then he knew what
he would do with his life.
The same was true of Francis Willard, and of Borden of Yale, and
of the great Lincoln and of the moral and spiritual heroes of all time.
What about us? Are we going to identify ourselves with "the still
sad music of humanity", see the gaping needs through the eyes oft the
great Christ, and catch the contagion of Calvary?—or are we to live
selfish; indulgent lives? God forbid.
"Where cross the crowded ways of life,
Where sound the cries of race and clan,
Above the noise of selfish strife,
We -Bear thy voice, 0 Son of Man."
"Mid haunts of wretchedness and need,
O'er shadowed threshholds dark with fears,
From paths where hide the lures of greed,—
We catch the vision of thy tears."

The most enjoyed and swiftly
consumed five years of my life
were the years I spent at Bethel.
Here in the presence of a conse-crated
Christian faculty and an in-spiring
group of Christian youth
I, along with many other of my
classmates, have seen, and partial-ly
grasped, the vision of the great
task before us. It is with pride
that we leave Bethel to actively
meet this task as alumni of a
Christian institution.
Of the many needs of our world
today, the one that to me seems
most real is the need of child
evangelism. It is the appallingly
bad criminal record of youth, the
poor record of child evangelism,
and the statements of leading men
of children's word that lead me to
this field.
With the present conditions so
challenging, I, as many others, feel
that we must obey the command
of Christ to go, teach, and win the
lost. We feel that winning the lost
can best be done by dealing with
youth. Perhaps we through our
teaching may reach only one child,
but that child may prove to be an-other
Moody, Finney, or Spurgeon.
In one church, fo cite such a case,
only one child accepted the Lord
in an entire year. Who was that
child? Robert Moffat. Yes, per-haps
we may win one child, one
very young child, but we may
through his life see the results of
our preparation here at Bethel.
So that is one vision seen here
—a vision of child evangelism—a
vision truly great.
Servicemen
Visit Bethel
Conwell Anderson, S 2/c of the
United States Navy, has spent a
few days visiting Bethel friends
before going to his home in Sister
Bay, Wisconsin. Connie has just
returned from Okinawa, where he
took part in two invasions and one
air battle. His ship, the USS Em-mons,
was sunk April 6, and sixty-five
men were lost. Connie spent
an hour on a raft before being
picked up. He was wounded so
was hospitalized on his way back
to the States for a 30-day leave.
He was accompanied to Bethel by
his cousin, Weston Seaquist, who
is a sophomore at the University
of Wisconsin.

By Gloria Anderson
Francis Bacon said : "Reading
maketh a full man; conference a
ready man; and writing an exact
man." We have all set goals in
our lives, and we have come to
college for aid in attaining those
goals, for all of us wish to suc-ceed.
We have realized that, quot-ing
Ironquil, "all glory comes from
daring to begin", and so two years
ago, we entered the door of Be-thel.
We knew then that it would
mean work, but work presents a
challenge. Work is basic for all
progress and happiness. In our
classroom‘ we have been taught
to think. In the laboratory we have
learned through doing. The dram-atization
of education is there- in
the laboratory. New fields have
been opened to us, our views have
broadened, and the habits which
have been formed here, the things
we do, are the builders of our
character. We shall leave Bethel,
knowing and accepting the chal-lenge
which has been given to us—
that of continuous effort.
But college life consists not only
of time spent in the classrooms,
but also the hours we have lived
together, which is the real test of
life. The trouble With the world is
that we, the peoples of the world,
have not learned to live together.
Here at school, we have learned
that we must give and take. We
have tried to be unselfish, for to
live for self is to live in vain. We
have made lasting friendships
here. By that I do not mean ac-quaintances,
to whom one would
ackiiovviledge a greeting if they
were to meet again. But rather
friends—one who will listen and
try to understand, be sympathetic,
and offer counsel. A friend is an-other
self, but he can see you as
others see you. Here we have
made such friends.
The most important part of each
day is the quiet hour, that time
we spend alone with God, our tru-est
Friend. With our Bibles, we
must spend a part of each day in
quiet meditation and thought and
talk to our Heavenly Father, the
giver of all strength, to whom we_
owe all that we are.
ruary, and since then has taken
training in Princeton Seminary.
On Monday evening, May 21, he
and Miss Alta Bordem, a graduate
of Moody Bible Institute, were
united in marriage. The ceremony
took place in the Bethesda Free

Lake, Gordy will return to
Princeton. Mrs. Johnson will re-main
in Minneapolis for a time and
will join her husband later.

With apologies to the editor I
come in with late copy, and it is
with much brain strain (as the
moron said when he put a sieve
on his head) that it was done at
all. The increased activity of exam
time, spring, packing, etc. has
caused high pressure in the crani-um
chamber, so yours truly should
not be held responsible.
Life in the dorm has been rela-tively
quiet (or have you heard
otherwise) this year in spite of
the presence of "Jo" Wankerbug.
In latter weeks he has apparently
taken over his brother's handle.
To you he might be known as Bur
ton. It is surprising too in the
light of the fact that only two of
the seriouseniors were dormites,
Gene "Eye"man of course was dor-mah.
Joe Landerson was here
too but his attentions were over
around Painavenue district some-where.
Bobber Gerud did his bestoo li-ven
things up but Ray An' Son
seems to have cramped histyle on
that end of the hall. H. "Sigfried"
C. contributed his part but that
was only spasmodic due to his ul-tra
curricular activities. Speaking
of such things brings to mind Gil-bird
Force a Line. I'm sure you
all know about him but always re-member
the mortal of the story is
Doris Johnson. Bob Daily was do-ing
something he doesn't seem to
have gotten fully organized as yet.
Maybe he'll take a couple years
asome other guys r know.
There were a couple other odd
ends of somebody's family tree
around here too that helped to
shape things up. Perhaps they're
friends of yours—Carl Apple-branch
and Harris Youngtwig.
Harris apparently has been here
because he hasn't been all there.
At any rate he's taking unto him-self
his bitter half in about a
weak. I hope it dozen't turn out
to be sour grips.
But let us continue—now look
at Built Hompson. Ow—my eyes!
Let's not look. Someone just hol-lered

have been interrupted that way—

We being now a sound-minded
body, this Sophomore Graduating
Class of June 1945 hereby make
and declare this instrument con-sisting
of three pages to be our
last will and testament hereby re-voking
all former wills by us made.
We here direct the Freshman
Class to pay our just debts and
graduation expenses, and we, as
individual class members will the
following:
Phyllis Johnson wills her ability
to hear the gong to Eleanor Nel-son.
Elmer Johnson wills "hans
svenska bok till Eddie Shimatsu
Linskogh." Little sister Gladys
Klassen wills her height to Big sis-ter
Jean Lindblom. Clarion Ed-itor
Norma Seaquist wills the lat-est
print to Bob Nelson. Gloria
Anderson wills her ability to wink,
which by the way she learned at
Bethel, to Bob Sandin. Jane Lar-son,
with Harold's consent, wills
that favorite bench in Como Park
to Jackie and Clary. Lawrence
Wagstrom wills his Model T to
Farmer Bill Thompson in ex-change
for his horse. Gladys Bill-er
wills her suit case, I mean brief
case, (got the wrong grip on that
one) to Peggy Peterson. Alice Ol-son
wills her alarming alarm clock
to Frank Shin(do guaranteeing
that it will get him to class with
time on his hands, that is, if he
wears a wrist watch. Kay Darling
wills her last name to Grace Jor-genson—
get the hint Bob Daley.
Walfred Peterson and Marianne S.
will their seats in the Government
Class to love birds Doris Johnson
and Gil Forsline for advanced
study. Adeline Sivertson wills her
size 10's to Carol Peterson for a
better understanding in her sopho-more
year. Luella Enander wills
her huge appetite to Mary Lou Ra-demacher.
Arleth Brask wills her
poetic ability to Walter Eddy, but
Eddy, just don't make it verse
and verse. Joyce Gilbert wills her
telephone monopoly to Mae Belle
Anderson, who we know will put
in a good line. Lorene Janssen
wills her boots and saddle to Miss
Effie Nelson and promises to try
and keep her posted. Earl Trude
wills his tennis courtin' ability
(which led to wedded bliss) to
Carl Appelquist. Ladell Erickson
wills her unused Rural Soc book
to Dorothy Carlson, who, she feels
confident, will keep the book in
the same condition.
In concluding we as the sopho-more
graduating class wish to
will:
C. E. Carlson's ability to fry eggs
to the next sophomore adviser,
and— the ability of all sophomores
to rise 6:00 in the morning, that
is, when there's a breakfast in
Como Park.
At last it looks as though we
can make use of our summer
clothes and put away our sweaters.
Those who sent their winter
clothes home can now live in com-fort
in our beautiful Minnesota
climate.... In anticipation of a
hot summer, the girls are having
their curls cut. Lillian Nelson led
the way, Annela Krueger and Flo-x4ence
Hedman, followed suit....
Mary Lou Rademacher and Doris
J. Johnson took a week-end jaunt
to the farm "to milk a cow"....
Lucky girl Elaine Pegors received
a dozen roses for her birthday
from her air-corps boy friend who
is stationed in Florida.... Lily
Johnson just dreads packing her
things because she knows she'll
weep buckets of tears, as if we
haven't had enough rain.... I
guess Gladys Biller hasn't heard
that telephone calls are to be lim-ited
to five minutes. She spent a
good half hour talking to Lowell
the other evening.... Dorothy Rei-chel
still has that dreamy look in
her eyes when you speak of the
J. S. banquet.... It's strange that
neither Jean Hamlett nor Gene Ny-man
would offer the score of the
tennis game they . played bright
and early last Saturday for one
spectator, Janet Walker.... Wily
is it Arlene Peterson is inviting all
servicemen who happen to be in
Seattle to visit Ballard Baptist
Church? Maxine Olson could do
the same for Elim Baptist Church,
same city. Gayle Sherman is
throwing all care to the winds and
is entertaining two boys—you ask
her who they are—We'll miss Mad-elyn
.Thomas jumping up-down
and gleefully saying, "Only
more weeks (days, hours) and I'll
see my mummy"...,. Marianne
Schouweiler answers all impudent
coffee shop customers with the
same line, "Next year it will be
different". It is not necessary to
emphasize the fact that Gretchen
is enjoying her last few days at
Bethel. Who wouldn't enjoy them
with a handsome sailor around?
Well, Ferns, have a glorious sum-mer
and return with plenty of
news to fill this column.

To the Contrary Notwithstanding
By WALFRED PETERSON
The poet summed such a situation up with this:
... Hear the loud alarum bells..
Brazen bells!
What a tale of terror now their turbulency tells! .
... How they clang a clash and roar!
What a horror they outpour
On the bosom of the palpitating air! ...
The St. Paul Pioneer Press summed the situation up with this:
"Bethel Institute-: 12: 42 P. M., damage $10.00."
Both completely failed to sum it up effectively. They forgot all
the glamor in the great Bethel conflagration. Joel Anderson's heroic
spraying of sundry chemicals was completely neglected. Eric Borge-son's
bunny rabbit's almost singed bustle was not mentioned. The know-ledge
that two trucks, one chief's car, and one squad car rushed to the
scene was squenched in the brevity of the news report, and Poe just
didn't know about anything except bells, bells, bells. The fact that the
challenge of the Bethel boys to a soft ball game went unaccepted by
the squench squad was not seen in the Dispatch, but that might have
been a face saving measure for the firemen. It was really the only
event for which the bulk of the monks boys left their monastary all
year, and the sole story on which Flash-bulb Larson was caught with his
camera down—at his church.

Indians Win Students Plan Summer Work
on Road Trip
Bethel traveled to Mankato and
New Ulm on May 25 and 26 to play
the last two games of the 1945
season. Displaying unusual power
at the plate, the Indians easily
smothered Bethany Junior College
by the score of 10-3, and continued
on the victory trail by defeating
Dr. Martin Luther College, 2-0.
On the rather muddy Mankato
diamond, Bethel took the lead after
two pitches in the first inning, and
although handicapped by occasion-al
lapses in the field, they were
never headed. Wes Lindblom
pitched well throughout the game,
becoming more and more effective
every inning.
Bill Peterson and Captain Clar-ence
Sahlin led the hitting, Pete
with three solid singles, and Sah-lin
with two triples. Eddy, Ed-wards,
and Wes Lindblom each got
two hits as the Indians collected
a grand total of fourteen blows for
the seven innings.
At New Ulm, the story was a
little different, with Luther's Ko-lander
holding the Bethelites to a
mere four hits. However. Left
Fielder, Paul Edwards came thru
twice, with men in scoring posi-tion
to drive in Bethel's two runs,
and that was enough to win.
The Chiefs' first score came in
the fourth inning when with two
out Sahlin beat out an infield hit,
stole second and scored on Ed-wards'
liner into right field. In the
first half of the sixth Bill Peterson
was safe on an error by Shortstop
Voigt, and Sahlin fanned for the
second out, but Edwards again pro-duced
into center, and Bill crossed
the plate with the second run.
Meanwhile the Indians set down
D. M. L. C. without much trouble,
playing their best ball game of the
season. Except for flareups in the
third and fifth innings, Luther nev-er
threatened seriously, and the
Indians finished the season on a
victorious note.
