Their "I WAS THERE" Coin ~ Bethany College 21st Year Celebration,1902
Emil O. Deere, as a senior at Bethany, would have received this "gold coin" during a very special celebration put on by President Carl Aaron Swensson on Bethany College's 21st Anniversary. Great pains were taken for it to be inscribed with these words:
"DOMINI DIMINO"
("Of the Lord, For the Lord")
BETHANY IS OF AGE
GRADITUDE FOR THE PAST
FAITH IN THE FUTURE
SERVING GOD AND MAN
THE BETHANY FAMILY REJOICES
WITH THANKSGIVING
AND HOPE
I AM ONE OF THEM
S.D.G.
