ANNUAL ALUMNI BANQUET WILL BE HELD NEXT WEEK
BIGGEST AND BEST BANQUET
IN NORTH PARK'S HISTORY
-
On Friday evening, May 27, at 7:30,
the North Park College Alumni Asso-ciation
will hold its annual banquet
in the new Stevens Hotel.
Not only will the banquet be held
in the "World's Greatest Hotel," but
the entertainment will be of unusual
merit. A very prominent and compe.
tent speaker has been engaged; special
musicians will furnish a rare treat;
and the menu is enticing.
Every loyal alumnus will be there
to keep alive the spirit of 'Greater
North Park." The graduating class
will be there one hundred per cent
strong to be initiated into the Asso-ciation,
and not a single faculty mem-ber
is expected to be absent.
They will all come to dine royally
together; but they will be there be-cause
they are boosters for their Alma
Mater.

THE VIKING CUPOLA OF 1 9 2 7
The Viking Cupola is out. The book that you
ha' heard so much about, and which has been in
preparation for nine long months, is ready for dis-tribution,
a book that every home in the Swedish
Mission Covenant ought to own.
You who are reading this article are showing
that you are interested in North Park College. Do
you know just what takes place at this our only
College in America? Do you know what religious,
athletic, and other student activities we have? Do
you know anything about the spirit that pervades
our school? If you are a member of our Covenant
and thus a supporter of our schol, you ought to
know, and you can know.
The Cupola is published yearly by the graduat-ing
class. It is an accurate record of all school
activities, portrayed in pictures and writeups. It
the only complete record you can secure which does justice to our school
activities. It is natural that each succeeding class tries to put out a better
book than did the preceding class. The class of '27 does not claim that this
Year's book is the best thus far produced, but we maintain that it is consider-ably
different from any previous Cupola. We have far more photographs and
snapshots; we have monotype compositions, printing on high grade, gloss
finished, ivory paper; we have a definite theme around which the book is
built, the "Viking," with Viking poetry and Viking art work in blue and
black inks; we have a beautiful Molloy cover with a bronze and deep blue
color combinations. All in all, we have tried our level best to put out a
book of the highest possible quality at the lowest possible price.
Friends, we appeal to you now to do your part. We guarantee that this
is the greatest book bargain you can find in America. We are sending a
"1927 'Viking' Cupola" to the Royal Library in Sweden, and we aim to place
a copy in every Swedish Mission home in America. Won't you help us to
make N. P. C. better known by clipping and mailing us the coupon below
with your remittance?

The North Park College Glee Club,
under the direction of Professor Frank
Earnest, are making trips to Paxton,
Rockford, Princeton, and Galesburg
to render concerts in the Swedish Mis-sion
churches in those cities.
The club has given several concerts
in the Chicago churches, and much
time and effort has been expended
In preparation for these concerts.
Twenty-four members of the entire
organization of thirty-five members
will make the trip. Professor Person
accompanied the club to Paxton and
delivered a short address. The con-certs
will be rendered in the cities
as follows:
Paxton, Tuesday, May 17.
Rockford, Thursday, May 19.
Princeton, Wednesday, May 25.

MAY DAY CELEBRATION HUGE
It was a grand success—from five
in the morning when the happy-go-lucky
student body sprang out of
their beds, until late at night when
they crept wearily back beneath the
covers.
This May day of festivities has been
resurrected from the younger days of
North Park, and so to most of us, is a
comparatively new feature in school
activities. The school was stirring be-fore
the sun. Many a drowsy-eyed
faculty member was routed out of his
slumbers by the well-meant efforts of
the glee club. At seven, the grand
parade towards the park and break-fast,
began. So gay was the proces-sion,
that no one noticed how long
was the way, nor how soggy with re-cent
rains. At our destination, scout-ing
parties of professors were sent out
to see which side of the river was the
wettest, and the natural result was
that we ate on the bridge.
The next official event was at ten
o'clock, when the inter-society contests
were held. Interest in this branch of
rivalry ran high, as all clubs were rep.
resented. The program showed such
originality and variety, that even
senior graduates stayed until high
noon. The College Men's Club with
a farce debate on etiquette at North
Park won one of the attractive ban-ners,
and the Boy's Current Events
Club in conjunction with the Girls'
SUCCESS
Literary Society won the other. A

Inspirations in the life of virtue."—Dewey.
Resolved: That May Day Be Made An Annual Holiday.
The success of the North l'ark College May day. celebrated May 6,
makes it probable, and from the students' point of view at least, very desirable
that it be made a regular institution in the school activities of the year.
The varied program of the day met with general approval, and it satisfied
the school community. Faculty, students, patrons, and visitors unite in
proclaiming the Day a success It is an old custom revived; may it link
to memories of by-gone days the spirit of today and the hopes and aspirations
of the future.
There is, however, one feature of the Day's program which in our esti-mation,
can and should be considerably improved next year, and that is
the inter-society competitive program. The numbers given should be well
planned and thoroughly rehearsed so that the presentation would attain a
higher grade of worth. The main ideas in this year's program were good,
but in the execution of them there was much that could have been improved.
It is hoped, too, that the Geijer Society will include in its reportoire the
singing of the famous and well-beloved May songs "Sktina Mar and "Glad
sksom tageln I morgonstunden." No May Day program is complete, in a
gathering where Swedish blood is represented, without the singing of these
traditional classics.
Taken all in all, however, it was a good day, and therefore be it
Resolved: That May Day he made an Annual Holiday!
Student Council Representation.
The "News" has called attention before to the discrepancy in the make-up
of the Student Council. As it is now constituted it is in no wise a repre-sentative
body, and, what is worse, as it is composed of an even number of
regular members (four) it is hard for it to function properly because of
oft-occurring dead-locks. The member-at-large is called in only to break the
dead-locks. New amendments to the constitution have just been adopted.
It would be well to alter the representation paragraph also. At least the
thing to do immediately is to give the member at-large full membership
on par with that of the other members.
Spring Romances.
An old, old, theme, but one with always new interests. At this time
of year throughout the school, there is a natural and instinctive 'pairing
off." This peculiarity of nature is not common only to North Park, but is
prevalent throughout the universe. It would be interesting to obtain the
various reactions of individuals concerned, but alas, for some obscure reason
those who are afflicted seem disinclined to discuss their malady. Conse-quently,
a neutral party must attempt to analyze the situation.
From the professor's standpoint, the situation shows only a dark and
hopeless aspect. (Corrections gladly received.). Lessons mean nothing, and
time still less. Restlessness shows itself in every move of the sufferer. This
of course spells disaster along scholastic lines. It is difficult to analyze
the reactions of the innocent bystander. Perhaps, in even the moat hardened
bachelor, a spark Is fanned to life, and a smothered sigh is breathed to the
sultry winds. "Would that I had been born with sex attraction." Feigned
indifference cannot completely conceal the inner longing for that intangible
something. As to the participants in this little drama. They are unconscious.
Life is a continual ascent and descent from airy clouds of happiness to the
gloomy depths of misery. "She loves me, she loves me not." The restless
spirit craves the wide open spaces, yet those same places become unbearable
If the second party is elsewhere. But we must cease this rambling, and arrive
at a conclusion. Are these little romances good or detrimental to school life"
There can be but one answer. It takes a seed to grow a tree. The bud must
come before the rose. But, you say, what of the poor youth who finds his
little canoe that was floating along so beautifully strike rocks and founder"
Tennyson has a word about these romances that end in such a fashion—
"'Tis better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all."

lowed, and a brief period of recupera-tion
was necessary before the athletic
events.
In the athletic contest all of the
regular field sports were listed. A
goodly crowd assembled on the field.
and in spite of a cold wind, the ath-letes
did exceptionally well. The win-ners
of the various events are as fol-lows:
GIRLS
50 yard dash—Ruth Bergstrom.
75 yard dash—Ruth Bergstrom.
13road Jump—Dorothy Krause.
High Jump—Laura Gustayson.
BOYS
100 yard dash—Robert Lindwall.
220 yard dash—Robert Lindwall.
440 yard dash—Robert Lindwall.
880 yard dash—Ray Nelson.
Mile dash— Ray Nelson.
Broad Jump—Walter Lindwall.
18' 4".
Shot Put—John Lind.
Javelin Throw—Clifford Peterson
Pole Vault—Eddie Johnson.
High Jump—Milton Strom, 5' 1".
The tug of war between the Semi-nary
and College was won by the 1st-tee.
The gladiatorial push-ball con-test
was probably the most interest-ing
event. The fifteen men on each
side experienced some new sensations,
i. e., flying, plowing by the nose sys-tem,
going through a meat grinder,
and passing under a steam roller.
The College was finally victorious in
this battle also. As regards total
points in the meet, the Academy took
first place with forty-one, the College
was a close second with forty, and the
Seminary was third with sixteen.
On the heels of the physical clashes
In our stadium e., back yard) came
the verbal clashes for the Oratorical
prizes donated by President Ohlson.
Here also an interesting musical pro-gram
had been arranged. The popular
rule of courtesy was followed, and
Miss Ebbs Johnson spoke before the
gentlemen. Her splendid oration was
entitled "Making the Most of Democ-racy."
The horrors of the Opium Evil

THE BLUE AND THE GOLD.
The elm tree's shadow lingers
Upon the quiet walls,
Or radiant beams from lighted crest
Upon the darkness falls.
North Park! We bring thee homage,
Thy beauties we behold.
All hail to thee, dear N. P. C.
The glorious blue and gold.
Thy spires rise toward heaven
To pierce the clouds of night
And shed abroad in every clime
Knowledge, truth, and light.
North Park! We bring thee homage
For a spirit free and bold.
We're true to thee, dear N. P. C.
The glorious blue and gold.
As oft' we'll turn to wander
Through mem'ry's golden halls
We'll walk again with Joyful tread
Within thy ivied walls.
North Park! We'll bring thee homage
We'll praise through ages old
The symbol of the brave and true
The glorious blue and gold.

NORTH PARK COLLEGE NEWS
THE WORDS OF THE MASTER
A Series of Chapel Talks by Prof. D. Nyva
XIV.
THE ELEVENTH RECORDED UT-TERANCE
OF JESI S.
The eleventh recorded utterance of
Jesus is what is called his Sermon on
the Mount, recorded most completely
by Matthews, chapters 5-7.
It may be called the Constitution of
the Kingdom of God. Christ speaks
athere his mind as the Sovereign King
with legislative as well as executive
and judiciary power. Only the mere
outline of this constitution can here
be given. •
It is in the nature of a Declaration
of Independence. If Christ in Jerusa-lem
declared his own independence in
terms of his complete dependence on
God, now in Galilee he declares the
independence of his followers in terms
of their dependence on him on his rule
in them and through them in the
Kingdom of Heaven.
I. Resources.
They are first of all independent in
resources. They are superlatively
well off and happy. They are not
only happy because in the possession
of health which implies an agreeable
dependence on oneself; they are not
only happy in the possession of
friends and their gifts implying the
agreeable dependence on others; they
are supremely happy, and in this hap-piness
supremely independent of
everything else because in their deep.
est wants and needs dependent on the
Kingdom of God. Through their hun-ger
they possess the banquet, through
their sorrow the consolation of the
Kingdom of God.
II. Obligations.
They are independent not only in
their resources but in their obligations.
They are the salt of the earth, a law
to themselves, the independence of
character and self reliance, and they
are the light, the hope of the world,
in their independence reaching out into
an obliging and ever widening service
of humanity.
III. Ronk.
They are in this world not of the
world, a kingdom Indebted to all and
owing none, all inclusive in interests,
all exclusive in policy, making its own
laws a benefit to the world.
IV. ('ommunity.
In civil life, in the narrower or
larger neighborhood, where‘er by
chance one meets his fellow man, they
become independent of all, friends
and foes alike, because they love all,
friends and foes alike, following the
great, sublime example of God who
sends rain on the good and the evil
and lets his sun shine on righteous
and unrighteous alike. And this they
do In the acceptance of the Godgiven
sacredness of human life and rights,
of purity, of truth and of benevolence
without counting the cost..
V. Piety.
In the sacred realm of piety they
become independent of the applause
of men because they seek God's ap-proval
alone. When they give alms,
their left hand does not know what
their right hand is doing, so uncon-scious
are they of giving. They give
not to receive, they receive to give.
Their prayers are meant not for the
ears of men but for God alone, and
they forgive as they are forgiven.
And in fasting the bliss received turns
every fast into a feast.
VI. Business.
Even in business they are above
business, independent of all lease'
wealth, the fluctuations of market
values, because seeking the greater,
the intrinsic value, the eternal, lasting
heavenly riches. In this dependence
they are free from the enslaving pow-er
of the evil wealth, greed and its
care, all the worries of life. Seeking
first the kingdom of God and its right.
eousness, everything else of value
comes their way in due season.
VII. Responsibility.
In relation to human error and sin,
constituting such a large portion of
human responsibility, they become in-dependent
of the evildoer, neither b.
proudly condemning him as the Phari-sees
do, dogfashioned, nor by weakly
consenting to his actions as the Sad-ducees
were doing, swinefashion, as
long as they did not interfere with
their feed, but by the prayerful, wise,
affirmative conduct of a disinterested
friend who treats everybody as he
after mature judgment will be treated
by him.
VIII. A duptubility.
If such are the values of the King-dom
of God, the first question is, How
are they to be ours? The answer is
in one word, Life. As life itself be-comes
ours, by our entering through
the narrow gate and proceeding on the
straight way, that is in the unique and
lonely experience of personal con-scientious
relation with God.
A second question is, How are these
values to be kept intact so that they
may be one day accounted for? The
answer is again in one word, Honesty.
By honest use of the opportunities as
they come, and certainly not by any
display of pretentions, however fine
looking.
The third and last question is, How
are these values to be transformed in-to
the structure of our own character
and life goal? And again the answer
is in one word, Action. Action well
directed from the bottom up, minding
the foundation first, last, and all the
time. For a building grows, stands,
and falls from the foundation up, as
the tree grows and withers from its
roots up.

were indelibly impressed on our minds
by Lorimer Moe's convincing oratory.
A specially good piece of work was
represented in Ralph Pearson's disser-tation
on "Our Friend the Indian,"
and Herbert Johnson made a memor-able
appeal for the conservation of
American forests. The prises were
so closely contested that the winners
This day meant much to the school,
and it demonstrated how successfully
any enterprise can be "put over," if
everyone does his share to boost it
along. May this College Day become
an institution at North Park, and
future generations enjoy It as heartily
as we of 1927 did.

awards. Herbert Johnson was award-ed
the first prize of twenty dollars, c
and Ebbe Johnson the second prize of
ten dollars. (These two are not re-lated.)
The grand reception of the day took
place in the evening in our Assembly
Hall. Professor Wallgren, the ,per-fect
Chairman'," was master of cere-monies.
A new school song, "The
Blue and the Gold," written by Her-bert
Johnson, was Introduced and en-thusiastically
received by the student
body. The speakers for the evening
were our beloved Professor Nyvall,
who gave us some May day breezes
from other days, and the Rev. H. F.
Branch of the Albany Park Presby-terian
Church who spoke in his pleas-ing
and forceful fashion on "The
Contribution of the Christian College."
After selections by the Men's Glee
Club, and a response by Adolph Ny-lund,
President of the Student Council,
the awards were given out. These were
Debating teams, Cupola Staff, News
Staff, Inter-Society Contest, Athletic
Events, and Oratorical Contest. The
ever popular "Karts och Dopp" put
the finishing touches on an enjoyable
evening.

NORTH PARK FIVE, MORGAN
PARK THREE, IN FIRST
Sante With Cadets.
At River Park, Backiund pitched N.
P. to victory over the strong Morgan
Park team. The winners played air
tight ball, minus any errors. Palm -
Quist was placed at the receiving end,
while "Middle" was placed at short
stop, owing to the absence of Lund-bohm.
Every one hit on the N. P.
team, while the Morganites were at
a loss when "Backie" pitched his
magic ball.
NORTH PARK WINS SECOND
GAME FROM MORGAN PARK
MILITARY ACADEM1
In a game at Morgan Park, North
Park's ability to rally In the seventh
forming, won the game from the
Cadets at a score of 5-4. Throughout
the game it was a pitcher's battle.
Knutson pitched a stellar game for
N. P., striking out seven soldier boys.
Ray Nelson played well in the out-field
as well as at bat. Ray hit a
home run tieing the score in the fifth
frame. Andrews is showing good form
on first base which relieves Coach
Varnes' worry as to this weak spot
which seemed so dangerous at the
beginning of the season. This is the
second game N. P. won from the Mor-gan
Park school this season.
TENNIS TEAM DEFEATS
CHICAGO TE('H.
The North Park tennis team easily

week on the North Park Campus.
North Park took every match.

THE OWL
The way some of the students have
been tearing around the campus lately
one would think the boys were having
a hard time pursuing their studies.

LOOKING 'EM OVER.
Looks like North Park is coming
out victorious in Athletics this year.
Every one ought to be on hand to
witness the big game of the year this
afternoon at Humboldt Park, 3:30.
Crane is strong this year, but N. P.
is winning the games too.
The hitting average of the team is
high. Even "Eddie" is sporting a new
suit and is known to have said while
walking down Lawrence Avenue, "I'm
only in town for the day, girls, so take
advantage."
Manager Strom is optimistic con-cerning
the Conference Tournament.
The tennis team ought to make a
showing as they have been going
good.
Blanche: "Why did it take so long
to run to third?"
Ray: -Because there's a short stop
between second and third."
The tug of war contest was a "heav-ing
success" for the College, not men
tioning the push ball contest.

A newspaper the other day had a
headline that said a truck had hit
a lady on a curve. She'll sue for
disfigurement.

The Glee Club members deserve
honorable mention. During their lat-est

one made the crack about breaking
the camera.

Last year our amateur politician ran
around and promised us football if
he were elected. This year he seems
to favor checkers if we can go by
his suit.

Free Masons help each other when

The original name of one of the
horses entered in the Kentucky Derby
was "Baldy." The owner, however,
saw our friend Cotnam and he imme-diately
changed the horse's name to

According to evolution the tadpoles
(that have been making their home
in the watery wastes of the tennis
courts) will soon become lizards, ar-thropoda,
or something, because J.
Pluv has been doing his stuff for a
couple of days. They have to adapt
themselves to their environment.
• • •
It is best that they endeavor to be-come
Arthropeda because it they were
lizards our co-eds wouldn't dare to
play there (unless "lounge-lizards").

Play is a pastime
Work is a satisfaction
Food is an essential
Sleep is a remedy
A friend is a pleasure

A book is all five.
