each night the evangelist ia greeted
with a crowded house. The Evange

the music from the crowd. The in

Pacific University holds It to bef
true that the spirit of the teacher
makes the college, and while not dis
paraging either buildings or equip
ment, the whole purpose is only to
intensify the spirit of Instructor and
student. Ho, In making up the teach
ing force of the University, the
thought la always to combine scholar
ship and experience with character
and Christian spirit; to select men
and women who csn train the whole
htudsnt for the whole of life; to select
forceful leaders who can Inspire the
student to lives of leadership In such
service as shall make for the great
est things In the commonwealth.
It was on April 1, this year that
the $2,000,000 endowment campaign
was started and this work Is rapidly
getting under way.
The success of other colleges in
Oregon and Washington has deter
mined the alumni ana friends of Pa
cific University that this endowment
and student forward movement shall
meet with similar or even greats
success. Newberg college, tne Quak
er inatitutlon, has Just completed ita
drive for 9200,000; the University of
Puget Hound has Just finished ita
work for iU 11,000,000 endowment
and It Is a much smaller school then
'aclfic University.
Willamette has completed Its drive
for a large fund and Albany college
Is planning a movement for an en
dowment campaign the first of the
year. r
Prominent folk throughout the
country, realising the great need for
education as was evidenced by the
war, have determined to help college
campaigns and to this end millions
of dollars have been given to the
small college and university to fur
ther the development of education as
given by them in the personal con
tact between student and Instructor
which Is not possible in the larger
stato-sup ported institutions, which
now are over-crowded.
