"WATCHMAN, WHAT OF THE NIGHT?" \X1atchmcn wake when others sleep. Watchmen feel a special responsibility 111 times of war and danger. So Pacific Lutheran College now asks whatever watchmen there may be, "What of the night?" The American Lutheran Conference, in language offered by its Commission on Higher Education, on November

%27,200.00 from the churches is probably too high. %1,750.00 from endowment and of $1,150.00
The estimated income of
