JUBILEE BULLETIN Of The Lutheran Free Church for Augsburg Seminary and Oak Grove Seminary In Commemoration of the Four Hundredth Anniversary of the Augsburg Confession TUESDAY, MARCH 4, L930 Progress of the Campaign (T\URING January the campaign has been -^ hampered by cold weather and impassable roads, so we have not made as much progress as we had expected, bu1 as booii as the weather turns we expect renewed activity. In a few places the work has been practically finished, and the results are encouraging. One of the oldest living graduates sends his check for $100, saying, "It is a great pleasure to me to be able—if only in a small measure—to express my gratitude for what I have received from old Augsburg." The younger generation is also showing the right kind of interest. Our young people and the children in Sunday schools have responded beyond expectation. A key-man in a church that finished its canvass Dec. 28 writes: "All seemed to be cheerful givers, but I think it would be well if the need were more fully explained." That is just exactly what is needed. We who understand the need must instruct those who are uninformed. Spread the bulletins. Encourage by precept and example. We have received two $500 contributions, one from a party in Minneapolis and one from a party in North Dakota. A $400 contribution was sent in as a memorial from eight heirs. The great bulk of the campaign remains yet to be done. From now on we must speed up. The Manager.

At the request of the editors of this bulletin the following is attempted. It is not difficult to find material for a presentation of this sort. However, a bare sketch, necessarily brief and not at all complete, must suffice to show the connection. When the Lutheran Free Church began its work some thirty odd years ago, the first step was to secure the needed support for our theological seminary. This is obvious. No church body could exist for any length of time, work up and maintain a certain degree of prestige, without schools. In all enterprises there must be leaders. The leaders must be well informed; they must be disciplined; trained. Else they could not lead. This training is done in schools of the right sort. Exceptionally, in "the university of hard knox," but generally, in established institutions of learning.
