The Rockford district Luther leagues
were also heard from yesterday, with
a contribution of jearly $1,100. Thia
was a'.so in excess of the amount
promised, the Rockford district having
also agreed to contribute $1,000. The
Galesburg district and other Luther
leagues in the synod are yet to be
heard from, but it is believed they
will redeem their pledges.
The college authorities are now con
fident that the $46,000 necessary to se
cure the Ericson bequest ' will be on
hand by next Sunday, the last day on
which contributions may be received.
The only thing that is now causing
anxiety on the part of the college
officials Is the possibility of some of
the pledges being unredeemed. Many
notes due Sept. 1 have not. yet been
paid, but hope is fe:t that the money
will be received before Oct. 6. De
