FROM CHRONIC NARROWMINDEDNESS SAYS KOTZ

Professor J. A. Tucker, principal of
the Oakwood Junior College, Huntsville, Ala., visited the college, Feb'

tour f o r the Oakwood Jubilee Quartet, composed of three students and
one teacher f r o m the Oakwood school.
The quartet will give a program at
the college some t i m e in March. This
will be a number of the Union Col'

TYPEWRITING AWARDS
John Kraushaar Writes Eighty-three
Words Per Minute
" A n enviable record has been made
by Union College typewriting students," writes S. S. Baker, of the
Underwood Typewriter Company, in a
letter of congratulation to Miss Elva
Babcock, who is in charge of the typewriting department.
He adds, " A l though we have not made an official
check of our records, it is our belief
that you have won as many of the
ruby medals as have been awarded in
the entire state to other schools."
A t this time last year twenty-six
awards were displayed on the bulletin
board; this year there are thirty-six
on display in the college building.
Thirty-six morp awards were earned
this year than there were two years
ago. All these awards have been won
in sixteen weeks. They represent tests
on Underwood, Royal, and L. C.
Smith machines.

Mr. Franco was a Catholic b e f o r e
c o m i n g to the United States. He is
now a member of the Baptist church.

while playing the accompaniment to

conclusion that the piano did not

The man came, and

PENITENTIARY SUNDAY SCHOOL
For the past five years Mrs. J. E.
Winter, Mrs. Henry Copeland, and Mr.
Louis Davies have been regular Sunday school teachers at the state penitentiary. Last Sunday the chaplain
called and asked them to bring another teacher.
Four of the eight
classes of the Sunday school are
taught by College View teachers.
The

can

a great
change in the inmates after they have
attended their classes. Mr. Charles
McWilliams often preaches to the
boys, and as a rule there are several
visitors from here each Sunday.

CUSS OF 1923
HOLDS REUNION
Fix Plate on Gift in Library
Last Sunday, when the class letter
for Union's class of '23 arrived in College View, all resident members met
to read it together. Then, for the
sake of "auld lang syne," once more
they came in a body to take a few
snapshots on the campus.
Perhaps the sight of the, buildingreminded them of an unfinished task
—on the shelves of the library reposed a complete set of the Encyclopedia Britannica, Union's gift from
the class of '23. The books were not
properly arranged on the shelves and
there was no card or sign to indicate
to new-comers that these were volumes extraordinary.
Therefore the
company went up to the library to
finish their task. The books were arranged in order on their own two
shelves and the small metal plate,
engraved "Class of 1923," which has
been waiting these two years, was
tacked into place.

L I B R A R Y HAS LARGE CIRCULATION
The College View Public Library,
at the corner of Eighth and L Streets
had a total circulation of 17,518 last
year. Now, resident college students
may borrow books from this library
by making arrangements with the custodians.

SENIORS GIVE SABBATH
SCHOOL PROGRAM
The college senior class had charge
of the Sabbath school, February 26,
Oswald Specht, president of the class,
acting as superintendent. An illustrated mission talk was given by Miss
Alma Lorenz and Miss Leta Cornell.
A double mixed quartet sang "Come
To our Hearts and Abide."
Members of the Sabbath school are
working hard to reach their goal of
an average attendance of three hundred. Much interest is being taken
in the Sabbath school train, which
registers the standing of the different classes.

STUDIO RECITAL GIVEN
BY VOICE STUDENTS
The following program was presented by vocal students from the
class of Professor W. I. Morey in a
studio recital given Sunday afternoon, February 27. The vocal students
were assisted by Grace Buck, pianist.

The "Lincoln Star" of February 19
carried the following Associated Press
dispatch sent out from San Francisco
under the date of February 19:
"Mrs. Mae B. Hawley, Los Angeles,
wife of D. B. Hawley, pilot on the
Yangtze River, who arrived on Japanese liner "Tenyomaru," today told
of a six-day brush with Cantonese
troops as her husband's craft steamed
down the river bearing nine missionaries and fifteen children to safety.
"It was necessary for passengers to
lie on the bridge of the vessel to escape bullets, she said. Two members
of the crew were killed.
"At one point the ship was to have
stopped for inspection of her $1,000,000 cargo. Soldiers camouflaged plans
to attack the boat by presence of
thousands of children on the river
bank. As the boat was about to dock
these children withdrew and machine
guns started firing. Hawley ordered
the craft full speed ahead, and it es
caped."
Mr. Hawley has been for several
years the captain of an American Oil
Company boat on the Yangtze river.
His ship has many times before been
at the mercy of bandits' bullets.
He is a brother of Jeanette Hawley,
of Union College.

STRING QUARTET PROGRAM

KLEMENTS HONORED

A comparatively small audience
heard the concert given Saturday evening, February 26, by the string quartet, composed of Professor C. C. Engel, Miss Clayoma Engel, Miss Lillian
Eiche, and Professor W. T. Quick; assisted by the Humann Brothers Quartet.
Tho numbers played by the string
quartet were well rendered, but the
applause given the Humann Brothers
surpassed that which followed the
instrumental music.
The Humann
Brothers sang two numbers, arter
which they were forced to respond to
the prolonged applause by giving two
encores.

Mr. and Mrs. George Klement were
surprised when about fifty friends and
neighbors called on them Tuesday evening, February 22, in honor of their
thirtieth wedding anniversary.
In
lokc-n of the esteem in which Mr. and
Mrs. Klement are held in the community, their friends presented them
with a leather upholstered rocker and
a cake plate. . Refreshments were
served at the close of the evening.
