Monson First Lutheran Choir Begins Song- Series Under the direction of Mrs. David Stoeve, the choir of the First Luth-an church presented the first* of a series of song services1 in the church at 8 p. m- on Sunday. The choir has a membership of sixty-seven voices. Editor's Note: This is the third of a series of travel letters written by Prof. H. W. Monson during the tour with the Concordia band this summer. Chamberlain, S. D., June 24, 1930 Dear folks: Wowie! This has been a hot day! The drive this morning from Howard was abeaner, and we don't mean pos-sibly! The wind comes sweeping in from the hot prairies like the blast out of an oven. It's cooling off now, however, and clouding up, too, so we may be in for another wet session tonight. We had our initiation at Madison, S. D., Saturday night. Everything was serene when we turned in, but about two-thirds in the morning along came a deluge of rain that threatened to engulf the whole caravan. The worst of it was that in spite of my warnings to have everything under cover no matter what the weather looked like, there was the inevitable suitcase or sweater or slicker still outside. And one. of the things I shall remember from this trip was the sight of Inky Thormodsr gaard flapping outside int the rain holding on to a slicker with one hand and a flashlight with the other trying to button up the tent-flaps. He must have done it with his teeth for he made it. The wind drove a little wetness in before the tents were locked up, but after that we were •nug and dry. Thank you, Walter and Cat The band is getting to the point now where their concert is nothing le*s than a series of thrills. The compliments are unending. It's the aame story every time: "Why we had no idea—"; "If we had only real-ised— 1" and so forjh. What they are trying to say is, that if the public only knew what a hand this is, we would not bo able to accommodate the crowds in any of the auditoriums we have played in so far- The con-cert is now so far superior to the home concert in April, that you home folks-will never believe it's the same band. I'm not bally-hooing now, ladies and gentlemen! Believe it or not, as you please. Two concerts now left in S. D., Chamberlain tonight and Phillip' to-morrow night. Then for the Black Hills and trek across Wyoming. We are playing in a big pavilion on an island in the Missouri river this eve-ning. We are promised a big audi-ence by the local management, but there are some who attend concerts occasionally that I wish would stay away. They won't listen and I doubt that they appreciate the fine points of our playing. In fact they supply some fine points of their own that neither the band nor the audience appreciates. I refer, ladies and gentlemen, to the ubiquitous mosqui-to, whose persistent demonstrations of undying affection usually arc de-cidedly au gratin. They have not been very bad as yet, but I know these western mosquitoes. They are up-standing he-men, aggressive and fearless. They wot not of fear, and screens are to them only an annoy-ing obstruction on the path of life that has to be surmounted. Their stings are collected by the hardware men and sold as shingle nails, while a healthy bite usually means that anything may result, from whooping-cough to convulsions of the inferior-ity complex. They're tough, folks, and I look for the worst tonight. However, the Cobbers arc pretty hard to down. Nurmi Peltola, third horn, IB figuring on pulling a coffee-pot over his head and playing his horn through the spout, and Hastad, alto clarinet, is looking for a sprink-ling can. They figure that if a mos-quito gets his stinger through those helmets, they'll have a pair of pliers handy and bend the deadly things over so the mosquito will be stuck and die from saxophobia. Then they may be removed to slow music and given a hero's burial. Then Never mind the rest. The cook says, "Come and get it," and that means yours truly, - , ,. r . . . The Manager. Luther League The Luther League meeting Sun-day, November 16, was given over to a series of four book reviews. Viola Kid reviewed "The Secret of a Happy Life" by Martin Hegland. There is a universal desire for happiness as shown by the fact that we wish for it, our friends wish for it and God wishes it for us. Christ is the One who gives us the full life and therefore is the Key to happiness Helmer Halvorson told -the story of "The Spirit of the Cross" by A, B. Anderson. If we want a life filled with the Spirit of the Cross we must repent, willingly submit ourselves, possess humility, and confess Christ. Grace Dahle spoke on "Life in His Name' 'by Samuel Miller. Cast all your sins on Him; He will carry them for you." In order to live t life in His name we must have tht guidance of the Holy Spirit, who shows us how sinful we are. There are two big steps in our life, baptism and confirmation. Christian Lystig "Why I am a Christian," by Hallesby. Hallesby said that the reason he became a Christian wa« "to become a man" To be a Christian is to experience God. Wo must give ourselves wholly to God. Raymond Huss led in devotion. Lillian Felde sang "Littany" by Schubert. Carrie Moen played a piano solo. Lois Brown of Moorhead was elect-ed temporary president of the newly organised freshman dramatic club at the college. Hazel Dale is secretary. Drawing up the constitution is in charge of a committee composed of six members. Those on the commit-tee are Catharine* Johnson, Moorhead; Marcia Vig, Mclntosh, Minn; Clarice Fedje, Hoople, N. D.; Theodore Ren-ne, Bagley, Minn.; Ellen Brandford, Hoople, N.

Mr. Bale stressed the importance of a good college paper, pointing out that it was one of the most import-ant activities on a college campus.
