Celebrating Archives Month! – 10 Reasons for Methodists to Save Documents and Historical Objects
October is both National and Tennessee Archives Month. I have spoken with a good number of church historians (sorry if I haven't gotten to you; feel free to email me at email@example.com) and encouraged them to establish records management programs and archives if they did not already have them. I have also encouraged them to use this time to make a concerted efforts to recover the church records that were in "Granny Williams'" trunk and celebrate their return. I also noted that the Conference archives will gladly take copies of such records for preservation or keep the originals, if the charge has no ability to do this.
One thing I found, (not surprisingly, actually) was that many folk do not see the importance, in the grand scheme of things, of keeping all that stuff. Will it help feed someone? Will it bring someone to Christ? Will it support someone's faith as they deal with the death of a loved one or some other tragedy? Is it that important?
As someone who wrestled long and hard with the idea that a person could be called to "memory ministry," I answer unequivocally, "Yes!" (I will cover this idea later in another piece, as I have written a more extensive document on the subject and will extract passages to make it appropriate for this forum.)
There are many reasons I give this answer, but below I have a sort of "Top 10 List. They aren't necessarily the top reasons, but they are quick, easy to understand, and cover several areas of use of records. They come, with the exception of number 10, from the conversations I have had with church historians and staff of different kinds, secretaries, clergy, and laity, regarding this topic. I particularly like the last one, which is just a quote, but which I use frequently enough to have printed on a business card. So here they are. For Tennessee Archives Month:
"Ten Reasons Why Methodists Should Actively Pursue Keeping Records and Preserving Their History"
1. Records and church documents are testimony. Can you imagine the Bible without the testimony of Peter and Paul through the Epistles? Our historical documents are the testimony of saints.
2. What is not history today will be tomorrow; what is not important or unusual today, may be tomorrow.
3. Preservation of our history is a gift to our descendants. I have seen tears of joy in the eyes of many people when they found evidence of the activities of their ancestors or the early days of their congregation.
4. Documents may help us discern and explain the truth. In a world where our youth (and older folk as well) are bombarded by opinions about all manner of things, through all manner of media, there must be some place that they can go to see original sources, allowing them to base their opinions and beliefs on less filtered information. It is amazing how many people get incorrect ideas about Christianity and other things from the opinions of other people whom they have never met and about who they know little.
5. Record preservation helps resolve disputes. More than once in the past few years disputes regarding past actions of the church were resolved by consultation of records. By the same token, I have seen the absence of records leave arguments unresolved and seen dissension grow.
6. Historical documents show our relationship with the Methodist Church as a whole and the Church Universal. They also help us see our relationship with the world at large and how we both affect and are affected by it.
7. Maintenance of church records is part of our tasks as Methodists, outlined in the Discipline and further defined by the actions of various Commissions and Committees.
8. Maintaining our records is a good idea for very practical reasons. As of this writing, 3 times in the last 6 months, I have been asked as conference archivist to search for records that would prove changes in the structure of a congregation or support actions they have taken with distinct legal and monetary repercussions. In none of the 3 cases had the records been deposited with the archives, so I was unsuccessful. In 2 cases we were able to find some things that helped, but in 1, there was nothing.
9. In many cases, records maintenance is required by law. In many more cases, a well implemented records management program may save a church from severe consequences in a legal action. The presence of such a program is a defense, its absence a tool for a plaintive against the church.
10. "Biblical faith takes history very seriously because God takes it seriously" – Frederick Buechner
One last thing. I work in the secular world of archives. In the past several years I have had the pleasure of doing outreach, helping people with their own programs, and just generally working with folk regarding history on different levels. In a secular world (e.g. working for the Nashville Public library, my former employer) if someone looks at you and thanks you for your ministry, you know it makes a difference.

I honestly can't remember a game that included such ridiculous stomach-churning, caused by great highs followed immediately by crushing lows.
With the Ravens having just cut Pittsburgh's lead to 20-17 in the third quarter, on the first play after the kickoff, Dominique Foxworth intercepted Baby Ben and returned in 46 yards for a touchdown. Suddenly, the Ravens had their first lead of the day.
Touchdown NEGATED by a retarded block-in-the-back by Terrell Suggs that served absolutely no purpose at all.
They would manage just a field goal after the penalty, tying the game at 20.
Five minutes later, with the game still tied, Willis McGahee broke free around the left side of the line and raced 15 yards into the end zone, putting the Ravens up 26-20. Or so it seemed, until the little yellow "flag" flashed on our screens.
Touchdown NEGATED by a Kelley Washington hold, that again, affected the play in no way – Willis was in whether he holds or not there. Simply getting in the way would have been enough.
Two plays later, Derrick Mason sprints 21 yards into the end zone, wiiiiiiide open, and Flacco lays it right in his gut. Or, it would have hit his gut, had his facemask not gotten in the way.
Touchdown pass DROPPED.
After the drop, the second should-have-been touchdown in three plays, the Ravens self destructed, going from 1st-and-10 at the Pit 21 to 4th-and-30 at the 41, on the shoulders of illegal formation and personal foul penalties.
And, last, but not least….
Pittsburgh facing 3rd-and-11 at the two minute warning, up by 3, the Ravens needing a stop to cling to any semblance of hope. Baby Ben fades back, avoids Trevor Pryce, and heaves up an ill-advised pass that was intercepted by Tom Zbikowski, and returned to the Pittsburgh 42. The Ravens now need just a few yards to attempt the game-tying FG to force overtime, or could win with a touchdown.
Interception NEGATED by illegal contact on Frank Walker.
On the play, Mike Wallace ran right into Walker's arms, the two embraced in a sort of post-Christmas hug for a second, and then the pass flew. Not only does Walker have every right to that space that Wallace does, the fact that Roethlisberger was running around like a chicken with his head cut off makes it perfectly acceptable for Frank to make contact more than 5 yards down the field.
For the second week in a row, Baby Ben threw what should have been a game-changing interception in the final minutes, only to be bailed out by the guys in stripes.
On the day, the Ravens racked up 11 penalties for 113 yards. The Steelers, meanwhile, had 4 for 20 (heh, 420).
Two of those calls were inexcusable personal fouls, one on Oneil Cousins, and the other on Haloti Ngata. On Ngata's, it was Daren Stone all over again.
For a guy that wants to come off as a disciplinarian, John Harbaugh continues to prove that he has absolutely no control over his team. According to WNST morning show host Drew Forrester, Walker was out on the field during warm ups waving a terrible towel, taunting the Steelers. Excusing for a second that FRANK FREAKING WALKER has no business taunting anybody; let's ask the question of why the hell Harbaugh is allowing his guys to do that kind of Bush league high school crap.
Week after week, the Ravens rack up high double and triple digits in penalty yards.
Week after week, they make stupid, undisciplined errors, resulting in yellow flying from the skies like the snow was last Saturday.
And, week after week, there seems to be no accountability for these errors, as the same guys (cough, NGATAWALKER, cough) are the culprits.
Haloti Ngata is a great player, no doubt about it, but for a guy that just registered his first sack of the season in Week 16, he needs to be told to cut out the bone-headed personal fouls or that big contract he is looking for will be from a team that plays far from Charm City.
Harbaugh has now had nearly two full seasons to back up his tough talk about accountability and discipline. The proof, as they say, is in the pudding, and the Ravens pudding seems to still be missing some key ingredients.
Another thing the head ball coach has had two years to figure out is this clock thing. At the end of the first half, Pittsburgh faced 3rd-and-12 from their own 4 yard line. There was about 1:50 on the clock when the 2nd down play ended. Had the Ravens called timeout, they could have gotten their ish together on the sideline, put in the correct personnel, sold out against the pass, and in all likelihood, gotten the ball back with great field position and over 1:30 to work with.
Instead, John the dumb dumb kept his timeouts in his pocket, the Steelers gladly let the clock tick down to 1:11 before snapping it, Terrell Suggs idiotically jumped offsides, and Fat Ben took advantage with a free-play Hail Mary down the right sideline.
Four plays later, Santonio Holmes scored a touchdown in his 4358345983450th straight game against the Ravens, and the teams went into the locker room with the score 20-10.
Face, meet palm.
Along with ALLLL of that, throw in the fact that the Ravens gave the Steelers THREE short fields in the first quarter (an interception when Flacco was hit as he threw, a big kickoff return, and a shanked punt), directly leading to 13 points, and it is painfully obvious that the Ravens gave this game away. They were the better team than Pittsburgh, despite what the wannabe yinzer in the cubicle next to you is trying to tell you this morning.
They continue to remind us, however, that they just don't know HOW to win. This game was another in the painfully long string of "couldda, wouldda, shoulddas" that this season has seen, from the first Cincinnati game, to New England, to Minnesota, and now to the City of Lucky Champions.
Ok, all that aside, there were some positives yesterday.
Most notably was Ray Rice (of course), who ran for 141 yards on 30 carries, the first back to break the century mark against the Steelers since 2007, breaking the longest current streak in the NFL.
Todd Heap has his second straight two TD performance, and Flacco seems to have no qualms about going to #86 when he needs a big play.
The pass rush was decent, as the Ravens sacked Roethlisberger 4 times, 2.5 coming from the defensive line.
Perhaps the most important positive for the Ravens yesterday, though, came not in western Pennsylvania, but on the other side of the state, in Philadelphia. Let's all thank the Eagles for holding off a furious rally from the Broncos. By virtue of that game, there are still no 9-win non-division winners in the AFC, and the Ravens WILL be in the playoffs with a win in Oakland next week.
For a full explanation, read Glenn Clark's thesis here.
Win, and we're in. Doesn't get much simpler than that. The same cannot be said for those bad guys in yellow and black, who need to win in Miami AND to get more than a little help, to see the postseason.

You're not alone if our podcast with Andrew McCarthy, award-winning travel writer and actor, got you thinking about the transformative power of travel. After meeting Andrew in person at The Philadelphia Inquirer Travel Show, I dove into his memoir, "The Longest Way Home." I found it to be a tremendous and moving read from start to finish. So I asked Andrew if we could give away three signed copies of the book here on our blog, and he was happy to oblige.
Andrew's authentic, intimate memoir is a very personal tale of self-examination and discovery written before marrying his fiancé of four years. Finding he was unable to commit to a marriage he knew he wanted, Andrew embarked on an adventurous journey to explore some of the world's most exotic, beautiful, and well-known destinations, including Mt. Kilimanjaro, the Amazon, Patagonia, Vienna, Costa Rica, and more. Along the way, he also explored himself through challenging encounters that test him. This soul-searching, spiritual journey traces his transformation from actor to travel writer, and charts the internal conflicts of his life. Andrew's book is a terrific and inspiring read for anyone who has ever experienced life-changing moments of discovery through travel.
You won't want to miss reading this book, so enter to win below! I'll pick three winners on March 18, and announce them right here on the blog. One entry per person, please.
UPDATE: We've chosen the winners! Congratulations to:
- Carolyn DeGirolamo

Inner Mongolia, in full Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, official Chinese Nei Mongol Zizhiqu, Pinyin Nei Menggu Zizhiqu, Wade-Giles romanization Nei-meng-ku Tzu-chih-ch'ü, autonomous region of China. It is a vast territory that stretches in a great crescent for some 1,490 miles (2,400 km) across northern China. It is bordered to the north by Mongolia (formerly Outer Mongolia) and Russia; to the east by the Chinese provinces of Heilongjiang, Jilin, and Liaoning; to the south by the provinces of Hebei, Shanxi, and Shaanxi and the Hui Autonomous Region of Ningxia; and to the west by the province of Gansu. Its capital is Hohhot (Huhehaote). Area 454,600 square miles (1,177,500 square km). Pop. (2010) 24,706,321.
Relief and drainage
Inner Mongolia is essentially an inland plateau with a flat surface lying at an elevation of about 3,300 feet (1,000 metres) above sea level and fringed by mountains and valleys. Its southern boundary is formed by a series of high ridges with an average height of between 4,500 and 6,000 feet (1,400 to 1,800 metres). To the northwest the land falls away toward the centre of the Gobi (desert), an arid zone with low summer rainfall, strong evaporation, almost perpetual sunshine, and constant northwesterly winds. The Huang He (Yellow River) makes a great northward and southward loop through south-central Inner Mongolia, delineating the arid Ordos Plateau and providing irrigation water for the area. In the centre and the north, rainfall and snow are absorbed by the desert.
The eastern third of the region is dominated by the Da Hinggan (Greater Khingan) Range, which rises from the plateau to elevations of 4,000 feet (1,200 metres) and more. Glaciation has cut many U-shaped valleys in the mountains, through which run tributaries to the Argun (Ergun) River. The Argun forms most of Inner Mongolia's border with Russia and is a major tributary of the Amur River (Heilong Jiang), the latter formed by the confluence of the Argun and Shilka rivers just west of Heilongjiang province.
Soils in the western areas are largely gray-brown or sandy desert. In the central regions, chestnut-brown soils are common, in which cereals can be raised by dry farming once every two or three years after sufficient moisture has accumulated in the soil. Soils in the higher elevations of the eastern mountains are podzolic (leached), while rich black soils and dark brown soils are found on the lower western and eastern slopes, respectively. The prairie on both sides of the great bend of the Huang He is known as the "granary of the frontier."
The seasons are marked by sharp fluctuations in the climate. Spring arrives in May and lasts for two months. Summer temperatures are relatively uniform. The July average is about 72 °F (22 °C) at Hohhot in the west-central part of the region; the yearly variation, however, is about 63 °F (35 °C). The two hottest months are July and August, when almost three-fifths of the annual precipitation occurs. Winter, which arrives after mid-September and lasts until March, is bitterly cold, with strong, icy winds blowing out of Siberia. Precipitation is meagre. In the Gobi areas the yearly total is less than 2 inches (50 mm), the plateau area receives only about 12 inches (300 mm), while about 20 inches (500 mm) fall in the eastern mountains. The development of farming is handicapped by a frost-free period that lasts only from 60 to 160 days and by droughts, which occur almost annually.
Plant and animal life
Much of the western territory is barren, characterized by shifting sands and sparse vegetation. Some drought-resistant grasses and shrubs grow in areas of higher precipitation, and the central government has pursued a program of planting millions of trees on the southern and eastern edges of the arid region. Virgin forests cover a vast area of the Da Hinggan Range, consisting primarily of coniferous species (e.g., pine and larch) in the north and more broad-leaved varieties (birch and aspen) toward the south. The mountains support a variety of wildlife, including deer and elk and marten, hare, and other fur-bearing animals.
In contrast to Inner Mongolia's western and eastern portions, large areas of the central region consist of rich grassland, which provides pasture for sheep, goats, cattle, and the famous Mongolian horses and Bactrian camels. Sheep and goats (roughly in equal proportions) are by far the most important, the most ubiquitous, and the most numerous of the animals raised on the grasslands.
Population composition
Han (Chinese) constitute the bulk of the population, and the largest minority population is that of the Mongols. Minor groups include the Hui (Chinese Muslims), Manchu, Daur (Dawo'er) Mongols, Evenk (Ewenki, or Ewenke), Koreans, and Oroqen (Elunchun) peoples. The population is unevenly distributed, with most people concentrated in the agricultural belt south of the Daqing Mountains escarpment of the Mongolian Plateau (near the Huang He) and on the eastern slopes of the Da Hinggan Range.
Because the Han greatly outnumber the Mongols, the most widely used language is Chinese. The Mongolian dialects belong to the eastern branch of Mongolian languages; they are phonetically, morphologically, and syntactically almost the same as the Khalkha Mongol dialect of Mongolia to the north. A writing system of the Mongol language, using the Cyrillic alphabet, was introduced in 1955, but the traditional Mongolian alphabet was later reintroduced.
In addition to ancestor worship, some of the Han in the region follow a religion formed of elements of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Daoism. The Mongols are mostly followers of Tibetan Buddhism, and many Mongol families have a son in a monastery. Despite the prevalence of a form of Buddhism marked by ritual and a dominant, hierarchical monasticism, some aspects of shamanism are still practiced. The stronghold of shamanism among the Mongols is the Hulun Buir league (meng). The Hui, centred on Hohhot, are adherents of Islam.
Settlement patterns
Inner Mongolia, traditionally agricultural and pastoral, has become much more urbanized since the late 1990s, especially around the three major urban areas located in the centre of the region. Baotou is a large industrial complex and transportation hub west of Hohhot; Hohhot is the region's political and cultural centre; and Jining (since 2003 part of Ulanqab municipality) is a commercial and transportation centre east of the capital. Also important are Chifeng (Ulaan Hada) and Hailar, commercial centres and transportation hubs to the south and west, respectively, of the Da Hinggan Range. About half of Inner Mongolia's population is now classified as urban.
Inner Mongolia, with almost one-third of China's grassland and about one-fourth of its pasture area, has been traditionally renowned for its livestock. The condition of the livestock industry improved markedly after 1950 through the use of such measures as large-scale wolf hunting to reduce herd predation, the immunization of cattle, and improved pasturage and animal husbandry. Weather stations were established to forewarn herders of major storms. Crossbreeding by artificial insemination, such as between domestic and Tsgaisky pedigreed sheep, greatly improved stocks. Sheep are the main livestock raised, and cattle, horses, pigs, and camels are also important.
The harsh climate severely restricts intensive agriculture. In some areas, particularly around the great loop of the Huang He, oats, spring wheat, kaoliang (a variety of grain sorghum), millet, and other grains are cultivated. In irrigated areas sugar beets and oil-bearing crops such as linseed, rape, and sunflowers are important. Rice production is also important in the eastern part of the region. Measures to improve agricultural output have included greater implementation of water conservation and irrigation programs (including the use of plastic-film mulching in some drier areas) and the use of chemical fertilizers.
Resources and manufacturing
Inner Mongolia's industry is based on the territory's great and varied mineral wealth: some 60 different types have been found in the region. There are rich iron-ore deposits at Bayan Obo (Baiyun Ebo), about 75 miles (120 km) north of Baotou, and Inner Mongolia has one of the world's largest deposits of rare-earth metals—some two-thirds of known reserves. Coal, mined near Baotou and at other locations, is in thick seams and easy to extract, thus providing a ready energy source for industrial development. The inland drainage of the Mongolian Plateau once contained a number of salt lakes; most have dried up, leaving behind deposits of salt and natural alkali (soda). These resources are important for the chemical industry, especially for the manufacture of chemical fertilizers. There are also significant deposits of niobium, beryllium, and gypsum.
Industrial development advanced rapidly after 1950, centred around Baotou, which developed into one of the major iron-and-steel producers in China. The city has numerous other plants, including those making ceramics, cement, machinery (including heavy trucks), textiles and leather products, chemical fertilizers, and electronic equipment. Other major industrial centres include Hohhot, Chifeng, and, to the west, Wuhai.
Also important to Inner Mongolia's economy is the processing of nonferrous and rare-earth metals, timber, and forest and animal by-products and the fabrication of building materials. Inner Mongolia has been working to develop an industrial system with ethnic and regional features. Handicrafts like carpets, saddles, and cashmere and camel hair fabrics are sold throughout China.
The rail system links the region to the remainder of China. Major railway junctions are Baotou, Hohhot, and Jining. With the advent of industrial development, several new railways were constructed in Inner Mongolia. The Jining and Ulaanbaatar International Railway (completed in 1955) connects China with Mongolia and with Russia. This route shortened the rail distance between Beijing and Moscow by some 700 miles (1,130 km). The most important line constructed since 1949, however, is that from Baotou to Lanzhou in Gansu province, which completes the rail link between northern and northwestern China. Another major line from Jining east to Tongliao completed in the middle 1990s connects the region with northeastern provinces.
In addition to the rail network, thousands of miles of highway link most areas. An express highway connecting Baotou, Hohhot, and Jining runs all the way to Beijing, and another extends northward to Wuhai from Yinchuan in Ningxia. Inland waterway navigation is somewhat limited. Only the upper course of the Huang He, from Lanzhou to Baotou, is navigable. Hohhot is the hub of international air travel, but there are regional airports in most of the larger cities.
Government and society
Constitutional framework
The administration of Inner Mongolia somewhat differs in name and composition from that in other parts of China. The region is divided into three leagues (meng), similar to subprovincial units in China proper, and nine prefecture-level municipalities (dijishi). Below that level, the local administrative units are subdivided as banners (qi) or autonomous banners (zizhiqi) in the Mongolian and some other minority group areas and counties (xian), county-level cities (xianjishi), and districts under the municipalities (shixiaqu) in the predominantly Han area.
Health and welfare
The nomadic Mongol pastoralists still live in traditional tentlike structures called yurts, or ger, that are inadequately ventilated. In the past, this, added to chronic shortages of drinking water and traditional hygiene patterns, contributed to the spread of epidemic diseases. Syphilis and bubonic plague caused a continuous decline in the Mongolian population in the mid-19th to mid-20th century. In 1947, for example, more than three-fifths of the pastoral population suffered from syphilis, and the infant mortality rate in 1949 was as high as one in three live births. Public health has since greatly improved, and the spread of infectious diseases has been brought under control. Energetic promotion of new midwifery methods significantly reduced the rate of infant mortality, and the population began increasing.
Education was introduced after 1949, mainly through mobile schools and a "half-study, half-work" scheme in which study time varied according to the requirements of agricultural and pastoral activities. More than three-fifths of the population has received at least a primary-level education, and illiteracy has been reduced. A number of vocational schools, colleges, and universities are also in operation, including Inner Mongolia University (founded 1957) and Inner Mongolia Agricultural University (1952), both in Hohhot.
Cultural life
Inner Mongolia's culture bears the deep imprint of Tibetan Buddhist influence. In liturgical music, monastery and temple architecture, scriptural learning and commentary, and religious arts, the Mongols accepted the forms of Tibet. Though the specific content and emphasis of Mongol folk legends vary somewhat with the location and with tribal or clan history concerning their origins, most clans have legends of their founders as either a mythical animal or a hero; others preserve legends about historical figures once prominent in the life of their clan. The subjects and themes of Mongol folktales and other forms of vernacular literature tend to be standard among all the tribes. A large number concern lamas and religious life. Legends and songs as well as riddles and jokes occupy the leisure time of the night camp and its fireside circle, which form a major aspect of traditional Mongolian life.
Mongolian music is not an independent art but serves solely as accompaniment to songs, dances, and rites. Singing is a form of entertainment, communication, historical recollection, group fellowship, and exuberant expression, and it demonstrates the close affiliation of individual Mongols with their culture and traditions. Mongol singing is generally a gregarious activity, mostly taking place around campfires, after the evening meal. The traditional long song (urtiin duu) style has been recognized as an "intangible cultural heritage" by UNESCO.
The Mongols observe seasonal celebrations: the New Year, the celebration of the White Month (signifying rebirth) in spring, the Midsummer Festival on the 12th day of the sixth month of the Chinese lunar calendar, the Autumn Festival (Festival of Fire) on the first day of the eighth lunar month, and the Great Sacrificial Feast to the Fire God on the 23rd day in the 12th lunar month.
Besides the temple festivals, there is the Obo (shrine) Festival, held in the fifth month of the lunar year. Toward the end of the ceremonies the festival takes a joyful course without restraint. There are wrestling and archery competitions, and a race is held in which the young men of the tribes ride their best horses. This is the time for a dashing display of the talent and vigour of the Mongol nomads.
With the increasing Sinicization of the region—in terms of both numbers and influence—many Han cultural forms have become prominent. Minority national troupes and a number of regional institutes seek to encourage and preserve the indigenous cultural traditions. Notable points of interest include the Five-Pagoda Temple (Wuta Si) in Hohhot, the "Green Tomb" of the Han-era courtesan Wang Zhaojun (1st century bce) near Hohhot, and several sites associated with the Neolithic Hongshan ("Red Hill") culture near Chifeng.
Farming was carried out on the grasslands near the present boundary of Inner Mongolia and the provinces to the south in early times. The area was the northern limit of expansion of intensive agricultural settlement and was thus the scene of frequent confrontations between nomadic steppe dwellers and settled agriculturalists. In 658 bce several states of the North China Plain combined their efforts to build a wall defending what is now Hebei from nomadic incursions and annexed part of Inner Mongolia to their agricultural territory. This part of Mongolia was inherited by the rulers of the Qin dynasty when they unified the Zhanguo (Warring States) into an empire in the 3rd century bce.
Emperors of the succeeding Han dynasty waged war against the powerful Xiongnu, who were based in the valley of the northern bend of the Huang He. After pushing the Xiongnu north of the river, the Han settled the Ordos Plateau region. The decline of the Han dynasty in the 3rd century ce brought a series of nomadic rulers to northern China. Later the Tang dynasty (618–907) again asserted control over China's northern border, constricting trade and prompting border raids.
The establishment of the Mongolian Empire by Chinggis (Genghis) Khan in the 13th century brought prestige and expanded trade to Inner Mongolia. Old raiding patterns returned with the Ming dynasty (1368–1644) in China, but peaceful relations with China were reestablished when the Manchu rulers of the Qing dynasty (1644–1911/12) reorganized the tribes into banners and leagues and promoted trade through itinerant Han merchants.
During the 19th century, population pressure to the south brought many Chinese farmers into Mongolia in search of land to cultivate. This caused conflicts with herders that culminated in independence for Outer Mongolia in 1912 and administrative autonomy for Inner Mongolia in 1932. Eastern Inner Mongolia was occupied by the Japanese from 1933 as part of the state of Manchukuo (Manzhouguo), and Japanese rule extended westward after 1937 during the Sino-Japanese War and lasted until 1945.
The Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region was founded by the Chinese communist regime in 1947, more than two years prior to the establishment of its national government at Beijing in 1949. In its first configuration, it consisted of the former Chahar and Suiyuan provinces and sections taken from western Heilongjiang and northern Liaoning provinces. In a series of annexations in the 1950s, Inner Mongolia was greatly expanded to the northeast and east, west, and south; from 1956 to 1969 it extended in a great 1,700-mile (2,700-km) arc from east of the Da Hinggan Range, then dipped to the southwest and west to the Badan Jilin Desert in north-central China proper. During this period more than half of China's frontier with Mongolia was the Inner Mongolian border; in addition, in the northeast, a considerable section of China's international boundary with the Soviet Union—that along the Argun River—was in Inner Mongolia. In 1969 the Beijing government reversed its previous policy by sharply cutting down the area of the autonomous region, transferring territory to the surrounding provinces and regions in all directions (especially to the Hui Autonomous Region of Ningxia in the west and Heilongjiang in the east). Only the international frontier with Mongolia remained unchanged. The areas transferred constituted about two-thirds of the former area of the region and contained almost half of its former population. In 1979 this reorganization was terminated, and the territory detached in 1969 was restored to Inner Mongolia.
Inner Mongolia traditionally has been an area of mixture and contact between the agrarian Chinese and the pastoral and nomadic Mongolians. The continuous territorial changes that have affected it have therefore signified the contradiction of diverse cultures and conflicting loyalties. Inner Mongolia has thus served as a testing ground for Chinese efforts to integrate Han and Mongols into a single unified political entity.

Vol. XXII No. 15 BETHEL INSTITUTE, St. Paul, Minnesota
May 5, 1943
Speech Day to Be May 12th
"What are you doing, Christian
young men and women, for the
boys and girls of this country who
are juvenile delinquents?"
This was the challenge presented
by Dr. Devine, as he spoke in the
Chapel, Friday.
Citing Marijuana as public en-emy
number one, giving example
after example of boys and girls
who use the weed, telling of the in-crease
in crime among teen-ages,
he drew a picture of the war at
home, which is being lost.
The Church has the only power
that can draw these children away
from the devil and keep them from
crime. The Church can take the
children off the streets, keep them
from marijuana and delinquency,
court and reform school. Churches
can, by daily vacation Bible schools
and by child evangelism classes,
Sunday School classes, and week-day
church school, give the young
people the Gospel which is the most
important factor in making them
upright citizens.
"If you can get youngsters under
the Word of God, if for only a
week, it means a lot."
"It is a pathetic thing," said Dr.
Devine, "to find men who aren't
Christians working with zeal and
enthusiasm to help the boys and
girls —and then to find the Church
people who have the only real rem-edy—
Jesus Christ, who will change
the heart — find them — asleep in
the pews."
"We know what we can do. Are
we doing it — or is the problem
one of Christian delinquency rather
than juvenile?"

Winners Will
Receive $25.00
Wednesday, May 12, is to be set
aside as Speech Day at Bethel. It
will be a day of varied speech ac-tivities
including original oratory,
interpretative reading, extemporan-eous
speaking, group discussion
and a division called speech mak-ing
in which the participant may
make a speech planned to secure
any one of the general ends of
speaking. He will give his outline
to the critic so that it may be deter-mined
whether or not he has achi-eved
his purpose.
Competent critics in each divi-sion
will be hired to judge the
speakers. Miss Platts urges all in
the Junior College and Seminary
who are interested to enter in as
many divisions as desired.
Each year there is a $25 scholar-ship
offered at Bethel by Dr. Mar-tin
Ericcson for students doing out-standing
work in speech activities.
The prize is divided into two prizes
of $15 and $10'to be awarded to the
two best all-round speakers. The
recipients of the prizes will be de-termined
by the critics, and the a-wards
will be based upon the
speaker's proficiency in the various
kinds of speaking.
If forty people enter the activi-ties
on speech day, there will be a
banquet held for them at the
Husch Brothers tearoom at which
time the prizes will be awarded
and the criticisms of the judges an-nounced.
"Watch your mailboxes for no-tices
of meetings for the different
divisions," says Miss Platts, who
is in charge of all the activities.

Before You Vote.
"Elections, oh why bring them up! What bothersome things they
are!" I can hear you say as you read the headline- of this editorial. We
have a tendency to regard them merely as "necessary evils" and forget
their great importance.
Next week Bethel is to elect officers for the Student council, Miss-ionary
Band, Clarion, Spire, and its other organizations. These groups
have behind them a very successful year. How do we know this?—from
the fruits of their work— The Service Men's Banquet, Homecoming,
Founder's Week, Missionary Week, and many, many other meetings,
from which we all received great blessing and enjoyment. Why has this
year been successful? —because of the intelligent, capable leadership
with, of course, the cooperative support of the other members.
In the coming year, Bethel must continue to have capable leadership,
and whether we do or not depends upon the ballots you cast in the
Remember — vote for the man who can do the job, not the man with
the most winning smile and personality. Of course the latter character-istics
are important, but be sure there is a sense of responsibility, a re-sourcefulness,
originality, and a willingness to work behind the smile
and personality.
Think twice before you vote!

"No! I don't want a formal!"
"Oh, no—oo—"
Thus the comments on a B.W.A. formal tea, as the remarks, so went

Which makes us wonder if the Bethel women are still back in high
school days where the only time they took the moth balls out of the for-mals
was for the J. S?
If so, it might be well to be told what to do instead of asked.

Cecil Lindblom
During the past weeks we were
reminded of the greatest sacrifice
that has ever been made, the sacri-fice
that made it possible for us to
come into direct fellowship with
God. Christ not only gave up His
home in the splendors of the eter-nal
realms for our sins but He
shed precious blood for the remis-sion
of our sins.
We are prone to commemorate
this unmatched "giving of self" for
a lost and dying world only a week
or probably two or three out of the
year. As we think of it this year,
may it be a challenge to us to do
as Paul suggests in Rom. 12:1 "I
beseech you, therefore, brethren,
by the mercies of God, that ye pre-sent
your bodies as a living sacri-fice,
holy, acceptable unto God,
which is your reasonable service."
The challenge involves sacrificing,
sacrificing as defined in these
words, "Giving up everything to
God." In other words, our hearts,
wills and thoughts should be con-scious
at all times of His presence
and all the actions of. the .inner
man in dependence on and in obe-dience
to Him.
May we note some of the quali-ties
of this sacrifice. It is to be a
living sacrifice, a presentation of
our lives to be used, as God from
His place in the heavens moves
and works in and through us, to be
living reflections of the Christ who
dwells within, and holy sacrifice,
cleansed from all impurities and
untarnished by worldly interests.
To be acceptable, this yielded life
and unblemished sacrifice must be
given in a spirit of humbleness.
A summary characterization of
this sacrifice is that it is our reas-onable
service. As we think upon
the willingness of our Christ to go
all the way, is it too mucji to ex-pect
that we give Him our best?

visiting patients and nurses
whom I have known before or
whom I have had the privilege of
meeting since I came here.
Your cards (not to forget all the
21 cards received one afternoon
from the B.W.A. girls), visits, and
other remembrances have made the
time go very fast. Your prayers al-so
have surely helped. Truly "all
things work together for the good
of them that love God."
I am thinking of all of you. May
we all experience anew an outpour-ing
of His blessing that in what-ever
dark days lie ahead we may
be conscious of His presence in an
abundant measure. Remember that
'in all these things we are more
than conquerors'.

2. FIDGETER or
Are you a "sprawler", "fidgeter",
or "head supporter"? In other
words what is your pet perch or
just exactly what is your favorite
position as you sit in a chair?
To begin with, most sitters
can be classed in one of the above
three groups. The most widely
known of all the sitters is
the sprawler. He is the lad
who insists on stretching the
lower extremities of his torso far
out into the aisle, exposing an eq-ual
amount of bare leg and bright
garterless hose. Correct posure
seems the farthest thing from his
mind as he leisurely sits with his
head on the back of the chair with
feet draped in the way of anyone
wishing to pass. Three excellent
examples of the sprawler are Karl
Rosenquist, Johnny Danielson, and
Ruth Nelson.
The "fidget" is the person who
constantly strives for a comfort-able
position throughout the class
period and is sure -to find it by the
time class is dismissed. The next
period finds him once again in the
process of squirming. "Knop" Er-icson
and Lola Grace lead this list.
Without a doubt the best "head
supporters" at Bethel are Lester
Pipkin, Dave Danielson and Wally
Henk. This type of individual
seems to possess a head which op-erates
on a pivot and can only be
held up by the aid of one or both

throughout the whole squad.
Nine errors spelled the difference
between a possible victory and the
defeat that they took. Inexperience
was the cause for most of the er-rors
and will be ironed out as the
team gets to work and plays to-gether
as the year progresses.
Sibelius Sahlin showed t h e
punch at the bat that he has shown
all through his play as he poled
out a long homer with one "duck
on the rock" in the fifth. West
led off the inning by dropping a
safe hit in short left; C. Lind-blom
flied out to left center: H.
Youngquist fanned and then Sah-lin
connected for the circuit clout
driving in West ahead of him.
This first game was more or less
of a get-acquainted game for Coach
and the fellows. He got a chance
to look over the fellows and lay
plans for the rest of the year. No
doubt some of the mistakes will be
remedied and they will all learn
to play with each other.
Wessman got the other hit that
Bethel had in the fifth when he
knocked out a two-bagger just af-ter
Sahlin had run the route. Wil-lie
and Sibelius looked good in the
infield as did Johnny D. who hand-led
five chances with only one
error. This year is the first that
Bernie has been on the initial sack
and is doing very well in spite of
the fact that his experience is so
The battery worked well altho
a strong and cold wind seemed to
affect the control. We look for-ward
to the fellows' bringing home
the majority of their games in the
win column this year.

ROCHESTER — The Spaulding High School boys ice hockey team likes its tight little sheet of ice at the Rochester Ice Arena.
It's great home-ice advantage.
For the first time since 2008, the Red Raiders will get to host a Division II quarterfinal playoff game. On Saturday at 7 p.m., No. 2 Spaulding (15-2-1) will entertain No. 7 Oyster River, an 8-2 winner Wednesday over No. 10 Pembroke/Campbell.
"I like our little arena," said Spaulding coach Paul George. "We like to put pressure on teams' defenses. You have to make a decision very quickly. It makes things very difficult for you."
There is some irony in that if Oyster River wins, the Red Raiders will host one of the two teams to beat them at home this season. The Bobcats did that last Saturday, 1-0, in a game where their goalie Brennan Young stopped 46 shots in picking up his first shutout of the D-II season. The Bobcats needed the win to host Wednesday's playoff game.
Spaulding also lost to No. 1 Merrimack, 6-3.
"I'm OK with it," said George, himself a former goalie. "We were doing well. He did a good job, He's not going to let the backbreaker go in. He makes you earn everything you get."
Spaulding outshot OR, 46 to 15.
"Realistically, the game could have gone either way," said Spaulding junior forward Brent Phillips, who leads the team with 39 points (18 goals, 21 assists). "we ran into a hot goalie. We had good defense and good goaltending and we couldn't put the puck in."
Spaulding has been a model of consistency this season, something that George has preached all year long and something that had been missing the previous four seasons.
"They played well," he said. "You know when you play us you're going to be in a dogfight. That's all I can ask of the kids."
The defense is good, but it could be better and George lets his kids know that.
"The one thing I preach is a better commitment in front of the goal," he said. "We've given up more than I wanted. They're not 100 percent committed to the idea and that's what it's all about."
Part of that could be the emphasis John Clauson, George's high school coach, brings to the ice when he helps out.
"He's preaching offense, the scoring thing," George said. "So we've got the kids going in two different directions. Our viewpoints are night and day."
Spaulding had proven, led by Phillips, that it can score.
The Red Raiders have two goal lines. The first features Phillps with seniors Zach Poisson (10-10-20) and Brendan Colson (5-11-16), while the second line is all sophomores: Justin Jewell (14-14-28), Zander Allen (7-14-21) and Kyle Carignan (7-4-11).
"I see no real reason to alter anything," George said.
Defensively, three seniors and sophomore Alex Turgeon have been pretty tough.
Six-four senior Drew Pepin (4-13-17) is the leader. George refers to him as New Hampshire's answer to the Bruins' 6-9 defenseman Zdeno Chara.
"He can be a physical and a finesse player," George said.
Classmates Ben Williams and Brian Chick (bogged down by two injuries last season) and Turgeon round out the rotation.
"I'm happy with what each brings each and every day," George added.
Senior Derek Scott has been solid in net with a 2.00 goals against average.
"We feel very confident if we have a shots advantage of 45 to 15 we're moving on to the semifinal round," George added.
"We just need to crowd the net a little more," Phillips added. "And take advantage of the rebounds. We're feeling really good."

Graduating with an undergraduate degree in communications in 1981, Dr. John C. Knapp never imagined that his career would ultimately take him to three additional continents, and experiences ranging from working with Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu in South Africa, to interfaith dialogue in Switzerland, to speaking at a university in North Korea.
Today he engages with businesspeople, academicians and others around the world in exploring the importance of developing ethical, responsible leaders equipped to navigate complexity and change.
It's been an unexpected journey, but an immensely meaningful one, especially when he has worked with young people through programs that he has not only led but developed. He is thus excited to come to Hope, where—as all of his experiences have shown--the holistic, faith-informed education that students receive is exactly what they and the world need.
"We are preparing our students for successful lives and the ability to be lifelong learners, to be critical thinkers, to be adaptable and responsive to the change going on around them. This is what a liberal arts education provides," said Dr. Knapp, who will become Hope's 12th president on July 1. "But we also prepare them to reflect theologically on their life and work—to ask what matters and why, to discern what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ in a world where we're called to be salt and light wherever we find ourselves."
Dr. Knapp didn't set out with a career in higher education—or travel around the globe--in mind. After he graduated from Georgia State University, he first worked as a communication management consultant and then founded and for a decade led his own Atlanta-based corporate communication firm, serving a variety of institutional clients including major corporations, medical providers and universities.
Valuing faith's role in his life—he was raised in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)—he guided his firm's work with a Christian mission statement. Specializing in assisting clients in times of crisis, he came to see many of the problems that they faced as ethical failures, and he was inspired to pursue a graduate education in Christian ethics, first at Columbia Theological Seminary and then overseas at the University of Wales, and a new direction.
"My theological education equipped me to more effectively help others address ethical challenges and develop values-based management practices," Dr. Knapp said. "In 1993, I founded the Southern Institute for Business and Professional Ethics, an independent, non-profit educational institution located on the campus of Columbia Seminary. I phased out of my business career as we served thousands of adult learners through seminars, roundtable forums and an executive certificate program."
He led the institute for 15 years, including during and after its 2006 merger with Georgia State University's Robinson College of Business, where it was renamed the Center for Ethics and Corporate Responsibility. Since 2008, he has been the founding director of the Frances Marlin Mann Center for Ethics and Leadership at Samford University in Birmingham, Ala., also serving as University Professor and Mann Family Professor of Ethics and Leadership. Both Samford's mission and the center's focus are similar to Hope's.
"We in higher education must be about developing individuals who are morally mature and who are prepared for moral agency in a world that is fraught with ethical challenges," Dr. Knapp said.
"Colleges and universities can make a tremendous difference in the world," he said, "but we must do it one student at a time. In Christian higher education, we have the opportunity, mandate and mission to do this very effectively."
Dr. Knapp's work abroad has followed his commitment not only to his own students but to contributing more broadly through scholarship and as a speaker. His numerous publications include the 2007 book For the Common Good: The Ethics of Leadership in the 21st Century, an edited volume with a foreword by Jimmy Carter and original essays by such international thinkers as John Hume, the Nobel Peace Prize laureate of Northern Ireland; Arun Gandhi, grandson of Mohandas Gandhi; and Frances Hesselbein, former CEO of the Girl Scouts of America and founder of the Leader-to-Leader Institute. As a reflection of the high regard in which his work is held, he has been invited to participate in and convene workshops, seminars and retreats not only across the U.S. but around the world.
"The topics of the meetings that I've convened have generally looked at the moral obligations of higher education in society—that's been a pretty consistent theme of my work," he said.
In 2008, for example, Dr. Knapp helped plan and facilitate the "Seboka on Higher Education and Ethical Leadership," held at Stellenbosch University in South Africa, a gathering that included college and university leaders from throughout southern Africa as well as others such as Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu. He also convenes and directs The Oxford Conclave, a retreat for U.S. college and university presidents held at Oxford University in England. As a Fellow of the international Caux Round Table, he helped lead two multi-disciplinary, interfaith gatherings in Switzerland--most recently last year--during which representatives of the three Abrahamic traditions considered shared values as they studied global economic issues.
In 2009, he was a plenary speaker and panelist during the conference "Women, Leadership and Social Justice" convened by former First Lady Suzanne Mubarak of Egypt. In 2011, through a humanitarian initiative of the Consortium for Global Education, he co-led a delegation from Christian colleges and universities that visited Pyongyang University of Science and Technology in North Korea and delivered a lecture to faculty and students on moral leadership. He presented the keynote address for the leadership conference of the Lebanese Society for Education and Development in Beirut the same year.
Ironically, given his professional travels, Dr. Knapp never spent a semester overseas as an undergraduate.
"I'm not sure I knew anyone in those days who studied abroad," he said. "I met very few international students on my own campus. There were some, but not many."
The world of 2013, however, is a different place, and he has treasured helping today's students develop global understanding and explore issues related to diversity, whether through workshops and seminars of the Mann Center at Samford or by leading groups to South Africa annually since the Seboka for a summer service practicum. In the same way, he values Hope's missional focus of educating students "for lives of leadership and service in a global society," both so that they can make a difference in the world and so that they are prepared to thrive as the years to come take them in directions they never could have foreseen. It's what higher education at its best can and does do.

R&B star Ray J is courting controversy with a new song apparently about his ex-girlfriend Kim Kardashian.
Ray J, who co-starred in Kardashian's infamous 2007 sex tape, seems to be taking aim at the reality TV beauty in his upcoming single, "I Hit It First."
In the track, he reportedly references sexual acts he once engaged in with Kardashian, who is now expecting a baby with rapper Kanye West.
According to TMZ.com, the song includes the lyrics, "She might move on to rappers and ballplayers/ But we all know I hit it first…/ I had her head going north and her a– going south…/ But now baby chose to go West…/ No matter where she goes or who she knows… She still belongs in my bed."
The track is due out on Tuesday and its cover features a pixelated photo believed to be of Kardashian in a bikini.
However, Ray J has brushed off the allegations.
He tells New York radio station Hot 97, "It's a song, it's not about that (taking aim at Kardashian). It's about a concept. People are going way too deep.
"I'm not trying to create no war… it's all love… It's a song, we're just having fun, that's it."

On tour of the Commonwealth Realm of Canada, The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall attended a youth Parliament meeting.
The royals are on a four-day tour of Canada, which saw them go to Province House, which held the Charlottetown Conference, a step towards the creation of Canada; it is the second oldest legislative building in the country.
The Prince and Duchess's visit recognised youth input in Canada, which hopes to encourage responsibility in future. Charles and Camilla met with 15 members of the 2014 Youth Parliament, all of whom are are high school or university students who have been legislative pages with the Legislative Assembly of Prince Edward Island (P.E.I). Most have also been part of other model parliaments organized annually by the Rotary Clubs of the province.
All participants were invited to participate in the 2014 Youth Parliament on the basis of their academic achievements, sports activities, volunteer efforts and leadership skills. They come from communities across Prince Edward Island.
The royal couple had the chance discuss the value of model parliaments, and Prince Charles made a speech. on which he drew on The Queen's speech in 1992.
The Queen said: "You have inherited a country that is uniquely worth preserving. I call on you all to cherish this inheritance and protect it with all your strength."
"I have every confidence Canadians took her words to heart," Prince Charles said. They landed in Halifax on Sunday evening and toured the province before stopping in Prince Edward Island.
Prince Charles later visited Bonshaw Provincial Park Tuesday while his wife, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, was going to meet with staff and residents of Prince Edward Home, a long-term care facility that tries to make the experience as 'homelike' as possible. The Royal couple would then visit Cornwall where, he said, "We couldn't possibly feel more at home."
