In December, 1928, six ministerial candidates, who had each
fyicared one year, were graduated. Three candidates in the Normal
EDepartment also completed their studies. They will receive their call.
ter they have taught for a year. One theological student left the
stitution to continue his studies at St. Louis.

The faculty consisted of Director J. N. H. Jahn, Ph. D., Pro-—

fessors L. C. Rehfeldt, Paul Schelp, and Assist. Prof. K. A. Rupp.

Of the two professorships authorized in 1926 none has been filled.

A call is now issued to fill the Portuguese professorship. Professor

Schelp began his leave in January, after serving faithfully for nine
| years

The two residences authorized in 1926 were not erected. We lack

a residence also for the new professor as well as for the professor of
Hebrew and Old Testament exegesis. Building ought to begin im-
a: mediately, since there will be a dearth of the necessary water in
November.

The roofs of the seminary buildings and professors’ residences
are not waterproof in stormy weather. We suggest that a tongue-and-
groove board lining, in which the joints are caulked with tar, be
placed under the shingles. The estimated cost would amount to about
$3,500.

‘Our water and light problem is not yet solved. Since city water
and light will soon be accessible, we ask Synod for an appropriation
of $1,200 and permission to sell our motor in order to hook up with
’ the city water and light.
