BURNED TO DEATH
. Jack Mair and His Wife Fatally Injured in
Explosion of Oil Heater

". n

Mr. and Mrs. Jack Mair, Minneapolis, Minn., were burned to death, Friday evening, September 30, when an
oil heater which he was lighting exploded, burning him so badly that
he died the next morning. Upon hearing the explosion, Mrs. Mair came into the room and the flames burned
her, causing her death at noon the
next day. They were buried in Minneapolis, October 6.
A c c o r d i n g to a letter received by a
f r i e n d here, Mr. Mair thought the
fire had gone out in the heater and
put something on the stove to make
it burn. It exploded with such f o r c e
that he was thrown to the bottom
of the stairs.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Mair are graduates of Union College. Mr. Mair was
a member of the class of '19, and his
wife, who was f o r m e r l y Florence Jackman, graduated in the class of '20.
He was history teacher and principal
of Maplewood Academy, Maple Plain,
Minn., f r o m 1919 to 1925. A t the
time of his death he was attending
the
university,
taking
pre-medic
work.

The work band was divided into
two
sections,
the
young
women
under the direction of Miss Rees,
and the young men under the direction of Professor George. The young
women have turned in $59.73 and the

E. H. CHRISTIAN SPEAKS
IN COLLEGEJIEW CHURCH
Viee-President of European Division Relates
Experiences rn Africa and Turkey
On Sabbath, October 8, Elder L. H.
Christian, vice-president of the European division of the General Conference spoke at the eleven o'clock service in the College V i e w church. His
message was on the progress of the
work in the division that he represents.
Although the conditions in
Europe are not improving, the membership in the European division has
increased, in a little more than a decade, f r o m 40,000 to 90,000. Many experiences were related by Elder Christian to show that our missions are
having wonderful results.
"There is a great need f o r workers
in our f o r e i g n fields," says Elder
Christian. Now as never b e f o r e has
our work been progressing very rapidly. Fields are now being opened that
never b e f o r e were possible f o r missionaries to enter..
One o f the outstanding miracles is
the f a c t that it is n o w possible f o r
missionaries to enter the interior of
Turkey and Russia.
Last year both
of these fields were absolutely "air
t i g h t " against Christianity.
" T h e Lord is doing a wonderful
work among the people of Europe,"
stated Elder Christian in an interview
Sabbath afternoon. Among other experiences he related the f o l l o w i n g :
About thirty years ago a rich young
Mohammedan king by the name of
Zacharia had a vision of Christ.
As
a result of this vision he began to
search f o r and study the word of God.
When he found the truth he sent away
all his wives except his first one, and
saw to it that they were cared for.
He f r e e d all his slaves and gave all
his property to the poor. As a result
of these things he started a real movement. A t his death it was estimated
that there were approximately 10,000
f o r m e r Mohammedans keeping the
truth.
At one t i m e Elder Christian went
down
into
Africa
to
negotiate
with
one
of
the
local
kings
in regard to a hospital f o r that country. The king, thinking to do him
an honor, prepared a great dinner for
him. " I t was truly an exhibition of

EARCE AUDIENCE HEARS
ILLUSTRATED LECTURE ON ROME
An unusually large audience listened
to
the
lecture
given
Saturday
night, October 8, by Alonzo L. Baker,
associate editor of the "Signs of the
Times."
" W h a t I saw in Catholic
R o m e " was the subject of his lecture.
Mr. Baker recently made a tour
of Europe, and while in Rome he
made an intensive study of Catholicism.
"Catholicism is, always has been,
and always will be Italian in genius,"
Mr. Baker declared. " I t is an Italian institution, with a branch office
in the United States."
Mr. Baker said that Catholicism
is as strong as ever.
While it iu
true that she does not now exert her
strength in the same channels as she
used
to,
yet
her
potential
resources materially,
ecclesiastically,
and civilly are strong, and when opportunity comes she will exert her
power again.
" I t is impossible now f o r a Protestant society to establish a mission or
a college in R o m e , " the lecturer
stated. "The recent four-year struggle of the Methodists in endeavoring
to establish a college within the siglu
of the Vatican is p r o o f of it."
"The old institutions of indulgences
which we are being told here in
America, are no longer being practised, are in full swing yet in Rome.
Intelligent Italians, and citizens of
other civilized nations are today
making pilgrimages to Rome, and
purchasing the same as they did during the middle ages," affirmed Mr.
Baker.
"But how this modern, educated
age can be duped into the fables and
traditions
and
miracles
of
the
church," said Mr. Baker, "is incredible."

ALBERT MAXWELL
MEETS TRAGIC DEATH
Brother of Myrtle Maxwell Killed by
Contact with Live Wire
W o r d was received here Friday
evening, October 7, of the tragic
death of Albert Maxwell, of Sulton,
Pa., brother of Miss Myrtle Maxwell,
assistant instructor in the department of education, Friday noon, October 7.
Mr. Maxwell was seriouly injured
when his body came in contact with
a high voltage circuit while he was
doing electrical work f o r a plant
there. He was buried Sunday afternoon in Madison, Ohio. He leaves a
wife and child. The Clock T o w e r extends sympathy t o Miss Maxwell.

Fire Extinguished
Fire which was discovered in the
yards of the S w i f t Lumber and Coal
Company, 135 West Eleventh, at seven
o'clock Monday night, was extinguished b e f o r e much damage was
done. A large crowd gathered in the
street as soon as the whistle blew.

New BooI^s in

by Radford.

SABBATH SCHOOL
REACHES GOAL
IN OFFERINGS
Professor Jorgensen's Class Has
Highest Record
The outstanding characteristic of
the college Sabbath school on October
8 was its clock-like precision of arrangement.
Every feature was outlined to the minute, began on time,
and closed on time, so that as the
clock struck the hour of eleven the
school was standing f o r dismissal.
Another announced policy f o r the
quarter is the use of students f o r the
review period. Mr. Brethouwer pointed
out the salient points in the lesson of
the previous week. He said that he
had learned more f r o m the review
than those who listened, which may
have been true, but at least he held
the attention of the school.
A f t e r the lesson study all assembled
in the auditorium again and scrutinized the results of the day. Professor
Jorgensen's class was the banner class
of the day with a percentage of 95.
Other classes that were over 90 per
cent are Professor Thiel, Miss Hiatt,
Miss Olson, Miss Rees, and Mr. Stout.
The other classes ranged f r o m 89 per
cent down to 67.
The membership
of the school is 265, and 245 of these
were in attendance, 141 had p e r f e c t
daily study records.
The offerings
amounted to $49.81, which is well
over the goal of $45.
The records show that of the 141
who studied their lessons every day,
105 were f r o m the ladies' classes and
only 36 f r o m the men's. Also in the
class standing there was but one
ladies' class that was outdone by any
one of the men's classes. The officers
are putting this data in the hands of
experts f o r f u r t h e r study and consideration. In all fairness, however, it
should be noted that the men with
daily study records doubled over last
week and that the men's classes carried the heavy end on offerings.
Miss Philmon's recollections of missionaries she had known was followed
by a violin solo by Professor Engel.

M0NTAVIEEE FLOWERS
TO LECTURE HERE ON
WORLD PROBLEMS
Noted Lecturer and Author to Give first
Number of College Lecture Course
The first number of the Union-College lecture course is to be given in
the college chapel, October 22, when
Montaville Flowers will deliver an
address on national and world problems. Mr. Flowers is a graduate of
the Ohio Northern University and
the college of music o f Cincinnati.
He is the founder of one of the great
pioneer lyceum bureaus.
" H i s executive ability is conspicuous; t h r i c e
the International Lyceum and Chautauqua Association of A m e r i c a has
elected him as its president."
Montaville Flowers is a striking
type of the constructive mind, he
personifies action, he seeks results,
his lecture is not an end in itself
but sets up a clear goal f o r national
aim, and stimulates united purpose
to attain it.
Montaville Flowers' addresses are
like cathedrals—they have great plan,
impressive .structure, p e r f e c t i o n of
detail, intrinsic value, and noble purpose. They have style, unity, grasp,
and completeness.
Their effect re-,
mains in the soul of the hearer long
after both speaker and speech have
b e c o m e dim in the memory.
"Specialists are c o m m o n ;
many,
men can write w e l l ; a f e w can speak,
well; Mr, Flowers is pre-eminent because he combines in extraordinary
degree all of these qualities; he is a
specialist in knowledge of rare value
to all; his expression is full,\ clear,
and compelling, and, as a speaker,,
he stands in the f o r e f r o n t o f A m e r i can orators."

NORTH HALL GIRLS
WEAR UNIFORMS
Thirty-five Young Ladies Have Dresses
of Mid-night Blue Crepe
Thirty-five North Hall girls are now
wearing uniforms of mid-night blue
flat crepe with white collars and
cuffs. Although it is not compulsory
to wear the uniforms, many of the
girls have chosen them f o r school wear
because they are simple, neat, and
economical.
" I think it's t h e neatest, most appropriate, and best looking school
dress I ever had," stated one of the
girls.
The discussions of the dean
of women and the girls led to the
choosing of the uniform. The girls
said that it would solve the problem
of the length of the dress f o r Union
College girls.
The prevailing tendency toward extravagance of some
and immodesty of others also brought
u n i f o r m dress to the attention of many
North Hall girls. The f a c t that the
girls did not always use the best of
taste in selecting their clothes also
led to the appointing of the c o m m i t tee which suggested that uniforms be
worn by the girls.
A c o m m i t t e e was chosen to select
the pattern and material f o r the unif o r m s b e f o r e school closed last spring.

A t Learning's f o u n t a i n it is sweet to
drink,
But 'tis a nobler privilege to think.
— J . B. Saxe.
In all parts of the world there are
step-parents, everywhere there are
step-sons and step-daughters;
and
step-children, as compared t o other
children, are usually rather neglected.
There are very f e w students who do
not have their step-child—some disliked subject of study which must be
taken f o r the sake of requirements,
and finally, many a college, even
Union, has its " s t e p - d e p a r t m e n t " and
its " s t e p - c o u r s e s " ; f o r a teacher with
only an equipped classroom does not
make a department.
A subject seemingly rather dreaded
is Greek, the language of the New
Testament. There is a growing need
f o r a knowledge of Greek among
teachers, especially those who plan t o
do evangelistic work in the f u t u r e .
It is sad to see Bible students with
a c o l l e g e education who are inseparable f r o m a p i l e of various translations and Bible versions, and who are
unable to do independent c o m m e n t a r y
work, simply because they have never
studied Greek.
Many say, " B u t is not Greek too d i f f i c u l t ? " A l t h o u g h it may be somewhat
difficult, it is not t o o hard. A t any
rate; should a real c o l l e g e student be
afraid of any s u b j e c t ?
Is not the
grammatical f r a m e - w o r k with which
the Greek student b e c o m e s f a m i l i a r
an essential contribution to all f u r ther language and English study?
Should not students p r e p a r i n g t h e m selves f o r the ministerial w o r k consider it a p r i v i l e g e t o study the Bible in the original t o n g u e ?
Should
not such a study reveal more of the
immeasurable treasures of the Scriptures and c o n t r i b u t e to the boundless
joy which the clearer understanding
of the W o r d o f L i f e gives?

Practical Advice to Freshmen
BY A SENIOR
" L o s t : somewhere
between
September 12 and October 15, one group
of c o l l e g e f r e s h m e n , " would be a bit
o f startling advertising to appear in
the columns of the Clock T o w e r , but
one second to none in appropriateness.
It is no doubt the sentiment
of each college beginner, who, if he
stops long enough to think about it,
finds himself, as a personality and as
a f o r c e in the world, practically nil.
He is submerged beyond any hope of
buoyancy, no matter what his high
school or academic specific gravity
may have been.
Going to college f o r the first time
is a sort of a Iosing-of-oneself experience. It is a sweeping away of f o r merly earned and r i g h t f u l l y deserved
laurels, a clearing of the decks, a derby which begins on c o m m o n f o o t i n g
and shows no favorites.
It is really surprising how many
valuable lessons may be learned f r o m
c o m m o n everyday things. Hear, then,
a parable of a piece of very useful
dairy machinery, ordinarily known
as the cream separator.
This is, we believe, sufficiently
familiar t o most freshmen of the
Middle West to j u s t i f y our sketching
a striking
analogy
between
this
p i e c e of f a r m equipment and the
gathering of first year students to
the college, and their subsequent experiences during the first month or
so. The most f a m i l i a r phase of the
comparison will be treated first.
The m i l k is poured into the bowl
of the separator, each drop losing its
identity in the whole. Then the turning begins, and at about 50 revolutions per minute of the handle the
valve is opened and the process begins. For a m o m e n t after the milk
in
the
bowl
is
released
nothing remarkable happens.
Even the
first m i l k that we saw pour out,
disappears.
Then to our relief the
spout down below springs into a f o u n tain and the whole milk gushes
f o r t h . That isn't right you say; and
of course it is not. There are two
spouts and the spinning discs of the
machine have separated
the
fat,

i

which we call cream, f r o m the skimmilk, which is largely water and sent
them out, each through its respective
spout.
Coming to school, g e t t i n g settled,
and registering are the first steps in
the process of student separation.
Then the f a c u l t y takes the crank and
the whirling begins (it o f t e n seems
nearer 150 revolutions per minute
than 50 to beginners). Then f o l l o w s
that period of going out of sight, and
again the reappearing f o r b e l t e r or
f o r worse. This student separator also
has two spouts, which are as necessary to this machine as the two spouts
are to the cream separator, f o r in
every separation o r division there
must be at least two elements left,
which of course must be disposed of,
and which are likely to be vastly d i f f e r e n t . The process takes thirty days
or less.
It looks as though the enrolment
has
thoughtlessly
classified
itself
into two divisions; namely, skim-milk
students and cream students.
We
shall h e n c e f o r t h use discretion.
H o w shall we avoid being one of
these, or how are we to be sure that
we are the other, you ask. How does the
f a r m e r ' s w i f e know the difference between s k i m - m i l k and cream?
That's
easy, just by the behaviour, sight, and
usefulness of one as compared with
the other.
No less certain may an onlooker
differentiate between a " b l u i s h " student and a " g o l d " one.
N
To be the f o r m e r , do not get down
to the business of study; slight duties; talk loud and laugh louder; try
to attract all attention to yourself;
always be where you are not supposed
to be at a certain time, and never be
there when you are; break over the
traces and do things that you would
darkly f r o w n upon if you were in
charge of the school yourself. In a
word, just c o n d u c t yourself in a way
that keeps your conscience unsettled
at all times.
If you are guilty of
these f e w items or even a part of
them, then you are invariably a skimm i l k student.

BOSCH RA

In just the degree that skim-milk
difFers f r o m cream a s k i m - m i l k student differs f r o m a cream student;
and since cream is, or is generally
c o n c e d e d to be the opposite of skimmilk, then the same
relationship
exists between the two types of students.
W h a t the one will be the
other cannot be.
So now if you are lost in this, the
beginning of the process of student
separation, take courage and r e m e m ber that you will show up again in

time; but above all things do not lose
sight of the f a c t that skim-milk in its
ultimate development b e c o m e s cheese
modified by " c o t t a g e , " and in its turn
cream evolves to that golden state of
superior c u b i c usefulness c o m m o n l y
known as dairy butter.
Well, we just must get out and go
a f t e r the cows.

Bringing Light to the Blind

[Continued from paffe 1J

Just off the college campus to the

Christian Record Publishing Company,
one of the most thriving publishing
companies f o r the blind t o be found
in the United States. This company,
owned and controlled by the General
Conference and the C e n t r a k Union
Conference, issues a monthly magazine of about f o r t y pages, the "Christian R e c o r d , " printed in both New
Y o r k Point and Revised Braille. The
Sabbath school lessons f o l l o w each
issue of the magazine as a supplement,
and they are also printed in both
systems of embossed printing. At the
present time the magazine has a mailing list of about f o u r thousand but
it is rapidly growing and will soon
reach the five thousand mark. This
journal f r o m month to month gives
articles on religious topics as well as
articles and poems on general topic.;.

The "Christian R e c o r d " goes to all

every country in the world. Publishing embossed literature f o r the blind
is about ten times as expensive as
ink printing, and a great majority of
the blind are unable to meet the cost
of reading needed to lift them out of
darkness. How glorious the g i f t s and
how magnanimous the people who are
making possible the good work of the
Christian Record Publishing Company.
And it is all sincerely appreciated by
the blind. Every day, according to
Professor Rees, letters come in, now
and then tear stained, expressing the
deepest gratitude of unfortunate people whose light has gone out in darkness and whose soul is in desolation.
The college students are welcome to
visit the Christian R e c o r d at any time,
to see how the work is carried on.

During the meal there were eight
courses of raw meat served.
Elder Christian spent several years
at Union when the college was in its
infancy. In the responsible position
that he now fills, as he travels f r o m
conference to conference, and f r o m
mission station to mission station, he
meets men and women who have gone
f r o m the college to help in the finishing work. He says that it pays to gel
a good education and a thorough
training. He advised students not to

dictionary, f o r the word, failure, but
to write in the margin beside the word,
"God's stepping stone to success," also

Besides the magazine the Christian
R e c o r d Publishing Company maintains a large circulating library. The
books in this library cover a wide
range of subjects but many are of a
religious character.
The "Christian
R e c o r d " and the books of the library
are all furnished entirely f r e e to the
blind, and the work of the Christian
R e c o r d Publishing Company is supp o r t e d entirely by contributions of
sympathetic friends of the blind who
are willing to make a personal sacrifice in order to bring a little light
to the thousands f r o m whose eyes the
light of the day has been denied. The
General Conference shares in this
contribution, making a substantial
appropriation each year.
The Christian R e c o r d Publishing
Company is housed in a neat onestory building containing a general
office, editor's office, press and folding
room, stereotyper's room, and a large
stock room. It has all the necessary
machinery f o r up-to-date embossed
printing.
Printing f o r the blind is
necessarily bulky.
T h e r e f o r e large
quantities of stock paper are required.
The output of the company f o r the
month of September, which went
through the mails, was 13,846 pounds.
Paper f o r the magazine is bought in
car-load lots, and other supplies are
kept in large quantities. One issue
of the "Christian R e c o r d , " when ready
f o r the mail, makes a capacity load
f o r a large truck.
Professor D. D. Rees is in charge
of this work f o r the blind.
He is
manager of the publishing company,
and editor of the magazine. W o r k i n g
with Professor Rees are: Lyle A. Har-
