NORWAY'S FISHERMEN
Boyesen's Sketch of Life in Their
Villages.


In one of his numerous magazine arti-
cles the late Hjalmar Hort Boyesen
wrote very entertainingly of life in the
fishing villages Of Norway, with which
he was very familiar in his boyhood
days. The following sketch will be recog-
nized as true to life by thousands Of citi-
zens of the northwest.
1t is a beautiful sight to see the fishing fleet
start out to sea in the early morning Singly
or in companies of three, four, or half a
dozen, the boats come scudding along with
the one square sail set, until the whole sea
seems covered and Jagged line Of masts de-
fines the western horizon. When they have
reached the fishing grounds, they let the sails
drop; the hooks are baited ard the lines are
flung overheard. Those who have had nets
set over night haul them in and row home,
returning later in the day, for in order to
give the deep line fishers chance the law
prohibits the encImbering of the sea with
nets during the daytime.
There are now government signal stations
along the coast, which give warning Of the
probable state OF the weather. But for all
that, scarcely year passes without multi
tude Of accidents. AS we all know such
official probabilities are extremely fallible
often weakening whatever confidence people
might repose in them by prophesying storms
which fail to make their appearance: and fail
ing to prophecy those which make widows and
orphans by the score. 1t was only last year
that calamity Of this sort made havoc in
many humble homes in the north Of Norway
Day after day and night after night every
knoll and rock about the fishing Villages
would be crowded with anxious women, spy
ing along the horizon for glimpse of the
well-known sail which they were never to
see again. At the end Of a week or two an
arm leg with sea-boot on would per-
haps drift ashore and would be recognized
by some mark by one OF the many mourners
And then funeral would be held over that
CHASTITY remnant; and hymns would be sung
and tears shed, and lugubrous feast pre-
pared in honor of the dead
