Youth characterized the class with its enthusiasm and aggressiveness. This enthusiasm was felt by the college in defeat to the Juniors in intro-mural athletics. The Lord's work was carried on with enthusiasm also as Gospel teams, Sunday School classes, student pastor-ates; and other fields of service called practically the entire class. Cecil Lindblom was class president; Glen Swanson, vice-president; Lily John-son, secretary; Joel Anderson, treasurer; and as advisor we had Prof. R. Omark. We hope that the aggressiveness and enthusiasm may remain with each member in consecrated effort as workers in our churches. M iddleman Clam A class which is neither Senior or Junior, yet should be one of them, is the Middle class. The eighteen members of the class are a vital part of Bethel school life. We as a class chose as our leaders for the year Francis Otto, presi-dent; Stanley Paulson, vice-president and Gordon Thompson, secretary-treasurer. The activities of the class included giving devotional books to all men entering the service from Bethel and donating our blood for the Red Cross. In addition we have made it our duty to see that the new students observe the traditions of Bethel. The individuals of the class are active in every organization in school. A large percentage have Middlemen as officers or leaders. Members of the class include two foreign missionaries from China and India, a rather unusual circumstance. During the school year (as well as during the summer) most of the Middlemen have served communities as pastors. We as Middlemen look into the future desiring to serve Christ even more diligently than we do now. First Row: E. Anderson; G. Swanson; L. Johnson; C. Liricsbl:. -,m; I. Anderson; R. Johnson; R.

HALT Bethel Junior College and Seminary Dana Larson, editor—Merle Freiheit, Bus. Manager In from as Doctor of Divinity as Mr. Wingblacle 1910 Mr. Wingblade received his baccalaureate degree by graduation Washburn College in Topeka, Kansas. After doing post-graduate work at the University of Chicago and the University of Minnesota, he received his M. A. from the Minn-esota U. As a young man he was employed by the ex-Governor, Arthur T. Capper, and as a reward, received a gold watch, of which Mr. Wingblade is still very proud. On coming to the Twin Cities, he united with the Elim Baptist Church of Minneapolis and there became active as Sunday School teacher, Y. P. president, Twin City B. Y. P. U. president, State as a teacher Bethel Junior College has a right to be proud of its president, H. C. Wingblade. From the east coast to the west he is known among the Baptists as an outstanding young people's leader. But the students and staff at Bethel know him a little more intimately, and because of this closer con-tact and fellowship, they have learned to love his tranquil spirit and deep meditative character. They have come to admire and respect this servant of God who has gone through life triumphantly yet humbly, for they realize that his radiant countenance is the result of continuous and glorious victories through Him. Henry Conrad Wingblade was born on a farm in Kansas and he attended the public schools of Pittsburg, Kansas, and the high school in Topeka, Kansas. A childhood experience which Mr. Wingblade remembers expressly is a trip with his mother to Sweden at the age of ten. On their return journey the ship struck rocks off the coast of Scotland and very soon began to sink. This i s perhaps the first lesson in a series of which is still continuing—the art of which he has become master—learning to trust absolutely in the Lord, knowing that He is able to KEEP. His brave mother, in an effort to comfort her children, told them to say "goodbye" to Daddy in America and that they would soon be with Jesus. Little did this Christian mother know of the place which her son was to command, nor the ingathering of souls due to the testimony of this Christ-filled life. The announcement was made by the captain that land had been sighted--help would soon arrive, and that they would not perish. But upon arrival in New York, they discovered that the pumps had been running night and day for there were five large holes in the hull. God in His great mercy spared the lives of His people so that His child might grow to manhood and fulfill His plan for Him. In 1892, at the age of eight, Mr. Wingblade was converted during a sweeping revival in Kansas. On Dec. 31, 1900, he was baptized and joined the Western Avenue Baptist Church of Topeka, Kansas, and in this church he was active as choir director, Young People's president, and in various other capacities. ecticaleci 02, Pres. H C. Wingblade D. D. Joshua 1:8 To Bethel's President Wing-blade, we, the students of Bethel wish to dedicate the Spire of 1943. six B. Y. P. U. president, and chairman of the Young People's Commission of the General Conference for seven years. Mr. Wingblade was head of the English Department, and also taught other subjects in Bethel Academy from 1910-1936, and in Bethel Junior College from 1931-1938. In 1938 he was called as pastor of the Addison St. Baptist Church of Chicago, but in 1940, the Swedish Baptist General Conference called him from that pastorate to the presidency of Bethel Institute. Since 1941 Pres. Wingblade has guided the affairs of Bethel junior College. During the years of teaching at Bethel, Mr. Wingblade has served as interim pastor and because of the time spent in preaching the Word of Life while he was professor at Bethel, Mr. Wingblade was ordained by a council called by the Central Baptist Church of St. Paul. In a,ddition to his teaching and preaching activities, lectures at summer assemblies, camps, and rallies, he has been a constant contributor to the Y. P. Topic of the Standard, and for 14 years has written articles for the Watchman Examiner. He served as editor of the Baptist Evangel for one year, which later became the Standard, the organ of the Swedish Baptist General Conference. Mr. Wingblade was married on September 27, 1917 to Gunhild Hagstrom, and they are the parents of four daughters: Alice, Evangeline, Helen, and Grace. An almost climatic event in the life of Pres. Wingblade came when on February 26, 1943, the Northern Baptist Seminary of Chicago conferred on him the degree of Doctor of Divinity. His work among Y. P. and his real understanding of the problems of youth has made his life very precious to all young people, and especially to those at Bethel. Pres. Wingblade testifies to God's faithfulness by quoting Joshua 23:14 where this great leader of the Israelites is delivering his :are-well message to his people: "And behold this day I am going the way of all the earth: and ye know in all your hearts and in all your souls that not one thing hath failed of all the good things which the Lord your God spake concerning you; all are come to pass unto you, and not one 'ling hath failed thereof." Certainly the glowing Christian life and serenity of spirit which the faculty and students of Bethel recognize always in Mr. Wingblade, makes this verse a deeper imprint on their minds than any other testi-mony could. And so we humbly thank God for the life as president of Pres. Wingblade and what it has meant to each individual decision and life. SALUTE! et ynt DEAN EMERY JOHNSON Dt. G.

KARLSON Dr. Karlson has fulfilled the duties of Seminary dean for eighteen years, and has done them well. All the students know him, wheth-er in the College or Seminary, and are all well acquainted with his distinctive "chuckle" which so read-ily betrays his sense of humor. Not only is he known among the students but also in the Conference because he serves actively on several committees. Indeed we are proud of him and are proud to be able to say that we know him. Our dean, is a versatile man. His outreach is broad, and his out-look is still broader, but into every one of his activities he brings practi-cal Christianity. He came to Bethel in 1933, and in three short years he rose to the deanship of our school. He now serves as a Minnesota senator and holds numerous positions in the defense program. Midst all of his busy curricula, Dean Johnson still finds time for play, and yet it's grave business— raising a victory garden. (not pictured) Mr. A. J. Wingblade Besides managing very capably his Greek and Christian Workers classes, Prof. Wingblade obtains fine speakers and singers for chapel services. \Ne hoslefit 1-,ecssa an, 0,3.6'1 e Bess:loco fine piatio rs of 14vt.laM cot-ItTi`o.ltioll is tealised as we to kb.e skv-deriks Ile \las trained.

Miss Larson Miss Edith Larson is the patient individual of the office whose cheery smile and ready reply were always awaiting puzzled students. Mr. H. W.

Englund gekool &ci4d The Swedish Baptist General Conference functions through three committees headed by an executive committee which represents the Conference when it is not in session. The committees have charge of missionary, literary, and school work. Hence our school committee members are scattered; however, there is a local executive committee of the school committee, and they have more directly the supervision of Bethel Institute. This committee convenes monthly. The executive committee consists of Dr. K. G. Burton, Chairman; Mrs. H. Johnson, Secretary; J. G. Hedberg, treasurer; Dr. E. Chalberg, Rev. Wm. Tapper, A. C. Conrad, Rev. E. J. Anderson, Thor Knutson, Dr. W. F. Widen, Dr. C. R. Wall, Reuben Englund, and E. G. Nelson: During the past year the school board has projected plans for a boy's dormitDry which we all feel the need of. A committee has been appointed to plan a long-time campus program of building. The board has already taken action towards building a permanent concrete tennis court and redecorating the college chapel which is also to be furnished with :aew appointments. fourteen fifteen ~ ;;a:n~: , eminctiu/ gizacluaks Grant Samuelson Through his varied activities he has influenced many of us. We hope, as we do of all the graduates, that he'll be a great power for God. Vernon Pearson ''For they can conquer who believe they can" is a testi-mony to the purpose in his life. Raymond Johnson It is not what he has, not even what he does, that directly expresses his worth, but rather what he is. Violet Carlson Admiration always comes the way of the girl who suc-cessfully finishes her Seminary course. We'll also remember Violet as assistant librarian and thank God for her Christian testimony. Willard Anderson His mild personality has tempered the more impulsive students. His engagement the past year was quite a surprise to everyone. Raynold Appelquist After five years at Bethel we'll miss Ray — "One who needed Bethel and one whom Bethel needed! " Valentin Hauk A fine baseball player is this senior, but it has not gone to his head. He is a bet ter preach-er though because a Saviour's love has gone to his heart. Dallas West The serenity and calmness of Dallas' appearance and life brings to mind the axim—"The wisdom of many and the wit of one." Seated: R. Johnson; V. Carlson; V. Pearson; G. Samuelson.

Paulson. gen,tvi C/a/m During our year as Middlemen we the Senior class, adopted the name of "Delta Gamma." These two letters are the fourth and third letters of the Greek alphabet and thus serve to express, ''The Class of '43". We also chose a sign; this was the popular "V". "V" is for victory, for victory has been accomplished in the completion of the prescribed seminary course, and victory is anticipated as we launch out into the service of our beloved Master. Class activities of the year began with a session spent in discussing health problems with a physi-cian; a discussion with a representative of the inter-seminary fellowship and later a Christmas party. We voted to contribute a sum of money for the purchase of a desk for Professor Omark as a project. The officers of the class were: Grant Samuelson, president; Willard Anderson, vice-president; Ray Johnson, secretary; Dallas West, treasurer. With gratitude to God, faculty and fellow-students, we leave the memorable halls of Bethel ever to cherish blessed memories of a beloved school whose influence has helped to direct our lives and service God-ward. nineteen Seated: D.

Janet Ly lh Rerr iniscing the Bethel days of 1942-43 will recall diminui-tive "Butterball's" lively per-sonality and congenial nature. Ruth Nelson Pet haps we often think of Ruthie's scholastic ability and envy her for that alert mind, but we'll never forget her happy smile. Lois Nelson We all remember Lois' spark-ling brown eyes, frankness and humor. She has been an inspiration to all of us. Bernice Peterson Bernice has been a quiet student, and yet she has a way of expressing her desirable character for a testimcny to us all. Joy Phillips Another one of these busy Bethelites leaves our ranks. She utilizes almost every min-ute because she has been a part-time nurse. Miriam Quarnstrom It was too bad that "Quarny" couldn't have spent her first year of college here too, for we have enjoyed immensely her friendly nature and willing attitude. Charlotte Sandin Whether before an audience or in the kitchen as assistant cook, we realize that Char's capability and efficiency can fit her for any position. Colle9e glacimak Wil Borne Students at the college haven't seen much of this soph-omore, but he has been there anyway, and probably study-ing harder than most of them. Doris Fanberg ''Fanny'', that agreeable and sympathetic sophomore will be missed by the Bethelites next year for we've enjoyed her Christian example. Mary Hamlin Mary's perfect trust in the Almighty has spurred us all on to greater faith in our Crea-tor. Thanks, Mary, for your wonderful Christian life. Helen Heitzman In the light of Helen's con-genial nature, this quotation seems especially fitting — "The best way to have friends is to be one." Le Roy Johnson We bid fond farewell to Le Roy, for he has been a good student, and reports are that he is a capable preacher too. Harold Carlson We can frankly say of Harold ,'A merry heart maketh a cheer-full countenance" for his smile and laugh are memorable features of Bethel. Gordon Johnson Besides being a friend di-rectly to the students of Bethel, ''Gordie'' has been an active friend of God. Verna Jorgensen Her pleasant life and smile add greatly to the sum total of the world's sweetness. Ruth Solvang One that few of us can forget is Ruth. Whether it is in singing; in conversation, or in praying, we could see Christ reflected in her. Bernard Travaille "Bernie" had a distinctive character that will long live in the memory of his schoolmates. Gladyce Treumer Gladyce's vivid personality and untiring determination will serve to make her testimony permanent in its impression upon us. Elbert Walker We're sorry that we have to say goodbye to "Al", for he is the kind of fellow everyone loved. He always had time to say "Hello" and to flash one of those "Walker smiles." Gustaf Westmo He has been an inspiration on how to study to many of us. A former missionary to India, he has mastered several lang-uages. Theresa Westmo She is one that has set herself to so live in God, as by her life to compel others to think of God. Harris Youngquist Harris' determination and his scholastic ability remind us that the will to labor is a greater thing than genius. Camera Shy: Peter Ahlquist Peter is the man with the photographic mind, a thing to be desired in school. He has done a fine job of majoring in history. gozpkomwie Cla/m "Oh, yes, study this year-we're sophomores." Such is our slogan, but amidst our studying we managed to squeeze in a little social life in the form of a sleigh-ride first semester. Then we sponsored the all-school birthday party, a rather unique but successful affair on April 13. Three projects were considered; furnishing a reception room in the college building, repairing the tennis courts, and furnishing the college chapel with ferns and flags, but the latter was decided upon. A note of sadness came with the second semester when Uncle Sam took, among our sophomores, our president, Rune Mentzer, and also Melvin *Wyma, our treasurer. But we carried on successfully under the able leadership of Merle Freiheit, vice-president. Harris Youngquist succeeding Mel as treasurer and Verna Jorgensen, as secretary, completed the executive body. Professor C. E. Carlson served as advisor and Gordon Johnson as class chaplain. Our memories of Bethel will be those of two happy years spent within its walls. Some of us will go on to the seminary; some will continue at other institu-tions of learning; some will go into nurses train- Our Birthday Party ing; some will just go out and work. But all of us will be in His hands serving Him where He sees fit for us to be. /lo244e2 Cozwi e The Christian Workers Course is a program of Bible and religious educa-tion which serves to make more efficient church workers and also to strengthen us students in our individual lives. As the year progressed our class increased and ended with fifteen mem-bers, two boys and thirteen girls. Being relatively small in size, our activities are made easier and with closer fellowship. The first activity was a ''Pow-Wow" on the banks of the Mississippi last Fall. The evening was spent playing games and getting ac-quainted, with a short devotional period to close. In April our group was entertained at the home of Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Wingblade and then in May an early morning breakfast was eaten in Como Park. Instructors for our classes were, A. J. Wing-blade, Miss Esther Sabel, Dr. Hagstrom and Prof. Norstrom, and we have appreciated their work and interest. /zed,kmon Oa11 September 14, 1942 is a date long to be remembered by our group, being the date that we as freshmen entered the Bethel family and were introduced to its Christian fellowship. After a few weeks the class was organized and D. Danielson was elected as president. W. Haring was given the vice-president's position, H. Carlson the secretary's and J. Danielson the treasurer's. For :lass advisor we chose Miss Alice Johnson and under this capable leadership the year was completed. As in other classes, the call to military service was responded to by several of our classmates. Others were called away for diverse reasons when the need arose and we miss them all. Our activities included a Twin-City Funfest held on April 3 which was attended by a large group of people. At the close of the year the Junior-Senior banquet was sponsored on May 21. It was the big event of the College year, being a formal in the College auditorium. We as a freshmen class are looking ahead to another enjoyable year of inspiration and study at Bethel. Seated: F.

It consists of a faculty advisor as well as representatives from the various organizations who make the student voice known. The work of the council for the year began by conducting the Freshman Week Program. Much of the year's activities were adapted to the present war situation and in this connection, the Homecoming banquet theme was designated to be "Scrap." A Service Roll was purchased which is now on display in the College Chapel and a Service Men's Banquet was held on February 9 in honor of our boys leaving for the service. Among its other accomplishments are a Student Directory and the successful installa-tion of a much-needed student insurance plan to cover injuries in connection with school activities. The year's events were climaxed with the all-school picnic held on June 3. The officers who served during the past year were: Dale Bjork, president; Roger Youngquist, vice-president; and Miriam Johan-son, secretary-treasurer. The Faculty advisor was Prof. E. G. Norstrom. Pe14/62-UA ea2MKG/1 The program of spiritual activities of Bethel is chartered by the Religious Council. Wirn Gunnar Hoglund serving as President; Irwin Bjelland, vice-president; Alma Iblings and Eunice Anderson, secretary for the first and second semesters respectively and Dana Larson as treasurer, the council has met with its advisor, professor Dr. H. C. Wingblade, in bi-monthly meetings of prayerful planning. The prayer life of the students has been nurtured through the daily noon prayer groups and in combined vesper prayer services in the Seminary chapel. The school has been represented by Gospel Teams as they have regularly visited the Twin Cities' churches, Missions, and Homes for the Aged. Selected groups have conducted services on out-of-town trips in the Fall and Spring. The Saturday night street meetings were started as a new endeavor in the Spring. Religious Emphasis Week in October with Rev. Wm. Tapper of Duluth in our midst and Pre-Easter services conducted by Rev. J. G. Johnson of Elim Baptist in Minneapolis in April resulted in changed lives that only eternity will reveal. Psalm 40: 1,3. D. Larson; I. Bjelland; G. Hoglund; Dr. H. C. Wingblade. Camera Shy: A.

The reason?—Every student at the col-lege is a member. The large size prevents regular and frequent meet-ings. The officers were Rune Ment-zer and Dale Lindberg, president and treasurer, respectively, both of whom were inducted into the army, Robert Hails, vice-president and Eunice Anderson, secretary. It sponsored an amateur program, and rain wiped out plans for a bonfire. The purpose of the club is to promote culture and sociability among the students. Co2,11 e at4 The Missionary Band was organized for the purpose cf promoting missionary vision and interest. Under the able leadership of Elving Ander-son, their goals have been accomplished through monthly meetings, prayer meetings, study groups and cooperation with the missionary programs of other schools. The group participated in the fall and spring conferences connected with the Student Mis-sionary Conference. During the Missionary Week in February, group discussions were sponsored for the stu-dents with the missionaries on mission prob-lems. This year the Missionary Band, with great faith, launched a campaign to fill their pledge of five hundred for the American Baptist Foreign Mission Society. Officers of this year's group were: Melvin Swanson, vice-president; Robert Hails, treas-urer; Miriam Johanson, Study Group Chair-man and secretary. R. Mentzer; B. Hails; E.

All the women are members and we meet one Thursday of each month for social and spiritual enrichment. Officers for this year consisted of Alma Iblings, president; Helen Heitzman, vice-president; Maxine Olson, secretary; and Marilyn Peterson, treasurer. Alma Iblings was forced to leave school by circumstances at home and Helen H. nerved the remainder of the year. The programs have been very interesting and at the first one, Miss Nelson, our advisor, was in charge of officer installa-tion. Thanksgiving and Christmas programs also were given and in March the Faculty wives entertained. The last program of the year was a formal tea in honor of those being graduated.

Numerous concerts were given in the vicinity of the school, but the outstanding event of the year was the annual concert tour. The war limited the trip to Chicago, Rcckford, Wheaton, Kenosha and Evanston. Out of the eight day trip sprang forth many amusing incidents. Many interesting places were toured by the boys. The chorus sang at more places than the schedule called for because there were special requests to sing over station WMBI, Chicago Noon Day Service, Evangelical Assembly, and others. The trip was educational to the boys, for they toured museums, Moody 'Church and Institute, and Wheaton College. Some of the more prominent songs that were sung are Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho, The Lord's Prayer, Ride the Chariot, Skona Mai, and, Precious Lord. There was also a quartet composed of members Dave Danielson, Roger Youngquist, Lloyd Nordstrom, and Gunnar Hoglund. Violinist James Nyquist played preludes. The officers were: Walt Julien, president; Dale Bjork, vice-president; Gordon Johnson, secretary; Gunnar Hoglund was treasurer, and Elving Anderson was pianist. Aside from the exquisite harmony, the chorus sings to the glory of the Lord, and one is brought closer to the Lord just by listening to His beautiful music. thirty-six eatelci,//tct During the past year, the Bethel band has been one of the most active organizations in the school. With their capable director, Elving Anderson, they have added life to the home basketball games, and raised the spirits of everyone. They have also played for a few school parties. In this their sixth year, several new pieces of music were purchased, and with this new music and good leadership, the band had a successful year. Directors of activities for this year were: Merle Freiheit, president; Lois Nelson, sec-retary; and Ruth Nelson, librarian. 1st Row: R. Norstrom; W. Magnuson; R. Young quisi; A. Gustayson; G.

Its first appearance was at Bethel's annual Christmas program. The Chorus also appeared on the program at the school's missionary conference, at Bethel night at the 50th anniversary cf Central Baptist Church, at a Chapel service, on the Bethel Baptist Radio Hour, and at the school's Baccalaureate service. The varied repertoire of the Arian Chorus has included light numbers such as ''Ho La Le", as well as majestic, worshipful numbers such as "God of Might We Praise Thy Name." The Arian Chorus members blended their voices in choruses and prayer with those of the Male Chorus members in a Valentine's Day party held at the girl's dormitory.

The pianist was Elving Anderson who also filled his part well. Several special programs were arranged with inst Turnental accompani-ments and also with special solos and duets. On one morning the choir was accompanied by John Danielson and James Nyquist on the cello and violin which was a beautiful rendition. Another morning Robert Sanders played his vibraharp with them and this too was well done. A special program also was given in honor of P. B. Bliss when four of his songs were sung. At this program Dr. Hagstrom also gave some personal impression from his acquaintance with this composer. This organization and its efforts have added much to the worship services and have been a blessing to the singers as well as to the hearers. thirty-nine D. Danielson; R. Youngquist; E. Johnson; J.

Their activities afford oppor-tunities to those who wish more activity than the organized music groups alford and those who are not privileged to take part in the organized groups. These contribute a large part to school life and also to individual lives in the opportunities for testimony. The CLARION, Bethel's four-page news-paper was published every two weeks throughout the year. The paper was organized on a page-makeup plan. Virginia Holmberg organ-ized and made up the front page and also the feature page. Carol Rexion directed the editorial page.

Swanson g/PtcleK/ p The most vital, helpful activity of Bethel students is the work they do serving the Lord in student pastorates. Each year students go out to pastorates and preach the Gospel, but this year more have gone out than ever before. They have served churches in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, South Dakota, and Canada. No doubt all students have a desire to be a student pastor, but not everyone realizes his desire. Last year, however, nearly forty students did definite service on the field in steady pastorates, interim pastorates, and missionary work. The Minnesota B. Y. P. U. sent out eighteen Bethel students last summer to various parts of Minnesota, and last winicr thirty-five were serving him in active service as pastors. There student pastors receive the practical training they need while they serve the Lord, and while they receive their college education. Throughout the school year, the students commute each weekend to their churches, some leaving on Saturday and returning the following Monday. No matter where they serve, they are well received and niany souls have been won to Christ through their efforts. This summer the Bethel students plan to continue their student pastorales, but some plan to accept full-time pastorates that they may se rve Him more effectively. 062/Jild 7e Under the supervision of the Religious Council, and Irwin Bjelland in particular, the gospel team work has progressed well in the past year. There were six teams each semester, and they had on the average about three assignments each month. Objectives of this work are two-fold; one is proclaiming the Gospel of Christ and the other is to give practical experience in leadership to the members. We know that both purposes are being fulfilled though visible results are not always obvious.

The club is sponsored by the faculty and taught by Bethel students. It is divided into three classes and functions like a daily vacation Bible School. The club originated as a practical application of the former missionary training course. This course has since been dropped but the need ',or Christ is still presented in the club. Thirty-five girls meet every Friday evening under the leadership of Miriam Johanson, Lily Johnson, and Lorna Swanson. The boys have been taught by Warner Lundberg and Harris Youngquist. Though they have not been as great in number as the girls, the work done will bear fruit. Miriam's class nrr eiu,4 The Bethel "B" Club is an organization which is composed of those men who have won their letter, or letters, in one or more of the school's interscholastic sports. The three major sports in which letters may be obtained are: basketball, baseball and tennis. Three years of conference competition are permitted for each person in each sport so a number of the members have several letters. As all good organizations, the club has a purpose which is the promotion of good, wholesome athletics at Bethel and to provide also, for enjoyment within the club itself, the type of fellowship that will produce the finest type of Christian sportsmanship. Officers for the year were: Vernon Pear-son, president; Glen Swanson, vice-presi-dent; and Arden Finke, secretary-treasurer. fort y- five Bethel baseball did not hold im-portance as in other years be-cause of no conference schedule.

Besides these two major sports we also have a few minor sports such as: tennis, kittenball, volley ball, horseshoe, archery, and ping pong. With all of these different types of sports there isn't a student in school who cannot participate in the athletic department of the school if he so desires. Just recently the tennis program at school has been encouraged. With hours of work put upon the courts by Eric and many of the students, they are now in good shape and a number of the students have become tennis conscious. One tournament which creates a lot of interest among the students is the ping pong tournament which last year had over thirty participants. The girls at Bethel are not left out of the sports program because they too may engage in basketball, tennis, volley ball, or whatever they wish, with intramural teams provided for them. Our school has a well rounded sports program and because there is something for everyone to do, all are happy. All can and do, engage tri the sports which they enjoy.

Not since 1918 has Bethel shed a few tears, felt heartache, and waved goodbye to fellows who left its halls for the service of their country. During this past year some were drafted, others left school because they felt they could serve their God better in the armed forces, and still others dropped out at the semester interval, knowing they would soon be called. For these boys we bow our heads in prayer each chapel hour and for these boys we ask God's blessing.

Youth characterized the class with its enthusiasm and aggressiveness. This enthusiasm was felt by the college in defeat to the Juniors in intro-mural athletics. The Lord's work was carried on with enthusiasm also as Gospel teams, Sunday School classes, student pastor-ates; and other fields of service called practically the entire class. Cecil Lindblom was class president; Glen Swanson, vice-president; Lily John-son, secretary; Joel Anderson, treasurer; and as advisor we had Prof. R. Omark. We hope that the aggressiveness and enthusiasm may remain with each member in consecrated effort as workers in our churches. M iddleman Clam A class which is neither Senior or Junior, yet should be one of them, is the Middle class. The eighteen members of the class are a vital part of Bethel school life. We as a class chose as our leaders for the year Francis Otto, presi-dent; Stanley Paulson, vice-president and Gordon Thompson, secretary-treasurer. The activities of the class included giving devotional books to all men entering the service from Bethel and donating our blood for the Red Cross. In addition we have made it our duty to see that the new students observe the traditions of Bethel. The individuals of the class are active in every organization in school. A large percentage have Middlemen as officers or leaders. Members of the class include two foreign missionaries from China and India, a rather unusual circumstance. During the school year (as well as during the summer) most of the Middlemen have served communities as pastors. We as Middlemen look into the future desiring to serve Christ even more diligently than we do now. First Row: E. Anderson; G. Swanson; L. Johnson; C. Liricsbl:. -,m; I. Anderson; R. Johnson; R.

Now Mitt Romney is saying that President Obama gave us ":four straight trillion-dollar deficits." Since we are in Obama's third budget year, a different President must have brought us trillion-dollar deficits. Was it Bill Clinton?
The Romney Claim
Mitt Romney is saying in his stump speech, running ads, sending emails, tweeting tweets, and doing everything that hundreds of millions of dollars of corporate/billionaire money can buy, all saying that President Obama has brought us trillion-dollar deficits for four years.
Romney's campaign website, for example, makes several false deficit and debt claims,
President Obama Is Responsible For The Most Rapid Increase In Debt Of All Presidents … the national debt has now increased $4 trillion on President Obama's watch …
…President Obama Has Presided Over Four Straight Trillion-Dollar Deficits
"The federal budget deficit for fiscal year 2012 (which ends on September 30) will total $1.1 trillion, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates, marking the fourth year in a row with a deficit of more than $1 trillion."
The Lie
\Romney's figures are based on claiming the 2009 budget years as President Obama's first budget. That would make 2012 his fourth budget year.
But we are just now wrapping up President Obama's third budget year, not his fourth.
The 2009 budget was President
Clinton's Bush's last budget year, not President Obama's first. The fiscal year runs from September to September. The $1.4 trillion deficit in the 2009 budget year began before the 2008 election and had nothing to do with President Obama.
The conservative Cato Institute spelled it out, in Who's To Blame for the Massive Deficit?,
All this borrowing is only necessary, we are told, because Obama ran up $1.4 trillion of debt in his first year. … many critics, either out of ignorance or malice, are blaming Obama for deficits that are not his fault.
… Some Republicans, for instance, complain that Obama tripled the budget deficit in his first year. This assertion is understandable, since the deficit jumped from about $450 billion in 2008 to $1.4 trillion in 2009.
… The 2009 fiscal year began Oct. 1, 2008, nearly four months before Obama took office. The budget for the entire fiscal year was largely set in place while President Bush was in the White House. … Obama is mostly right in claiming that he inherited a mess.
So no, the massive deficits were not brought to us by President Obama, they were brought to us by an earlier president. Was it Clinton?
See also, Ten Years Ago We Were Paying Off The Nation's Debt. But Then We Elected Obama.

Whenever we decide to travel abroad, we always get the think of taking travel insurance. If you are an occasional traveler you'll probably buy your insurance from the travel agent. But if you travel more than twice a year, it is much more cost effective to have one insurance lasting all year round, than buying one every time you travel. If you are travelling for a long time then its better to take longstay travel insurance.
Before buying any longstay travel insurance, it is better to go through the whole policy. Health concerns which are rather severe as well as problems brought about by alcohol and drug uses are oftentimes excluded from the full coverage a client is entitled to. War and terrorism clauses can be excluded in most policies to protect both the company and the traveler with the latter being influenced not to plan a trip to such hazardous nations. Travel insurance is an agreement or a contract which can offer a traveler with an adequate amount of assistance that can be beneficial when traveling so it would be smart to compare a list of policies beforehand.
There are different forms of insurance which is hard to classified but considering the durations, travel insurance is further divided in three types:
* Single trip,
* Multi-trip and
* Annual / Long stay
"Long stay" insurance is the most important and attractive part of the travel insurance because for the large number of travelers who planned their vacations for more numbers of days / many months. It not helps you only in travelling plans but also a safeguard for cancellation charges, luggage and personal belongings, financial investments, your health and well being and most important to give you sense of peace. Companies are offering much best coverage to the customers who are buying long stay like international travel insurance, top up insurance etc. The main benefit of this insurance is the customization of coverage. A customer of long stay travel insurance can optimize their coverage as per their need; he should take help with their insurance adviser. Go for most appropriate coverage often their charges may be more than the standard one. The customers must be clear about their need and the ignorance.

Black Concert: Leela James Live in Baton Rouge LA Sunday 4-23!
Baton Rouge, LA
Details: Leela James, Daley
In 2004, James toured as an opening act for The Black Eyed Peas and Macy Gray. That same year, she was featured on hip hop producer, DJ, and emcee Pete Rock's album Soul Survivor II, providing vocals to the track "No Tears". In 2005, she lent her voice to the posthumously released Ray Charles album Genius & Friends, duetting with the singer on the song "Compared to What".
James' debut album, A Change Is Gonna Come, was released on June 21, 2005. The album was conceived as a throwback to an earlier era of American soul music, building upon the legacy of 1960s and 1970s soul singers while incorporating elements of contemporary R&B, funk, and gospel.
In the lyrics to the album's lead single, "Music", James laments the current state of contemporary popular music. She condemns the glorification of materialism and misogyny that has often been attributed to the lyrical content of contemporary R&B and hip hop songs while pleading for the return of the artistry, dedication, and sincerity displayed by musicians of earlier decades.
James co-wrote most of the tracks on her debut album, two exceptions being her covers of the pop rock band No Doubt's 1996 hit "Don't Speak" and the classic title song by Sam Cooke, for which the album is named. Notable collaborators on the album include Raphael Saadiq, Kanye West and Wyclef Jean. Leela guested on Robert Randolph and the Family Band's 2006 album Colorblind, lending her vocals to "Stronger".
After parting ways with Warner Bros., James signed with the independent label Shanachie Records and released her second studio album on March 24, 2009, an all-cover set entitled Let's Do It Again (the title being a homage to the 1975 soundtrack album of the same name by The Staple Singers).
In June 2009, she appeared on the Moby album Wait for Me, performing the vocal on "Walk with Me".
James' third album My Soul – her debut release for the Stax label – was released on May 24, 2010, and debuted on the US Hip Hop/R&B chart at #7. Speaking in May 2010 to UK soul writer Pete Lewis of Blues & Soul, she stated: "With this album I wanted to make sure that I showed all sides of me – in terms of variety in the music and in my vocal range – while at the same time making it clear that every song deeply came from my soul. Plus I also wanted to incorporate a little more hip hop this time, and infuse it with my traditional R&B – because I felt that. By making my beats edgier and harder-hitting, I'd show there was more to me than just doing ballads and things of that sort."
On July 8, 2014, Leela James released her fifth studio album, Fall For You. The album's first two singles, "Say That" feat. Anthony Hamilton and "Fall For You" both reached Top 15 on the Billboard Urban AC charts, with "Fall For You" reaching #12. Ms. James supported her album with tours nationwide, including performances at Essence Music Festival, Arizona Jazz Fest, San Diego Jazz Fest, Capitol Jazz Fest, and more.

What I do
I make hair tutorials on YouTube. But I created this blog to connect with my fellow writers/bloggers. I've also created a myspace account, but I don't like the format for blogging. I'd rather blog here. As far as something to note about me: I rarely have will power when it comes to dieting. I'd rather eat what I want, but in moderation. I like girly stuff, but I don't like doing my own hair. I rarely do my own hair, so if you saw me in the street, you'd probably not recognize me. But if you ever saw me, I would love it if you came to say hi. Thanks for reading my blogs.

Here are the how-to's and results:
1. Materials: 7/8 " solid color ribbon
5/8" print ribbon
plain headbands - really any kind will work
2. Measure the length of the headband. Add about 1 1/2" to this meausurement and cut two lengths of the solid ribbon.
3. Cut one piece of the printed ribbon the same length as your solid pieces.
4. Pin the length of printed ribbon onto one piece of the solid ribbon. Edge stitch on each long side of the ribbon. I used a 70/10 needle. Note: I have done this without pinning, but it actually took longer as the ribbon gets very slippery and shifty. Better take the minute to pin and then sew faster, with neater results.
5. With right sides together, sew one short end with an approx. 3/8" seam. Turn and finger press.
6. Fold each remaining short end, wrong side together, approx. 1/4" and pin.
7. Now fold the two lengths of ribbon wrong sides together, starting at the short seam. Topstitch down each long side, close to edge. When you get close to the end with the folded ends, repin if necessary to ensure that the folds match up. Stitch to end, backstitching to secure folds. (Leave the short side open.) You should now have a casing with both long sides topstitched and one short seam sewn inside.
8. Feed your headband through the ribbon casing.
9. Once the headband is all the way through, you should have enough overlap to sew a 3/8" seam to close the opening. Be sure to backstitch.
10. There you go! One adorable, handmade headband for your little Valentine!
11. Enjoy how cute (and grown-up!) she looks!
12. And then, go make a bunch more because they are so fun, cute and easy!
Happy Valentine's Day!
