NORGE'S GREAT DAY
Nine Celebrations of May ~ Are
Planned for Minneapolis.
PREMIER BLEHR's PORTFOLIO
He VIII Take the Interior Depart
ment In the Norwegian
Cabinet.

Norway's chief national holiday is May
IT., the anniversary Of the declaration or
independence promulgated by an assembly
OF the Norwegian people at Eidsvold. In
1914. Norway, which for four centuries
had been a mere dependency OF Denmark,
shook off the Danish power and elected
a king of her own. In the meantime the
European powers had awarded Norway to
Sweden for the latter's services In the
coalition against Napoleon. Such dis
position was not at all in accordance with
the views Of the Norwegian people and
they refused to accept the transfer. When
Charles XIII. and Prince Bernadotte came
against them they prepared for stout
resistance. A few minor engagements
were fought, enough to test the spirit OF
the Norwegians, and the Swedish king, on
the advice of Bernadotte, decided to ap-
prove of the new Norwegian constitution.
A union was thereupon formed. The year
1914 thus becomes the most eventful one
in the history of Norway and her sons and
daughters hold it dear, especially the 18th
of May. -..... Il
Never in Minneapolis has the day been
SO generally observed as it will be this
year Nine celebrations Of considerable
magnitude have been arranged for and
all will unquestionably be we'll attended.
The Sons Of Norway lodges with their
auxiliaries will observe the day to the
best of their ability, Nidaros lodge, the
cises at Foresters hall, Washington ave-
nue., near Twentieth avenue N. Miss Anna
Gjertsen and Charles A. Daily will deliver
addresses. Oslo lodge will hold forth at
the new Woodman's hall, in the Hegna
block, 1907 Two and-a- half street. Ludwig
Arctander will speak for the occasion. The
program will consist largely of music.
Dovre the youngest lodge Of the Sons Of
Norway, has secured Odd Fellows hall
on Central avenue and Fourth street:
James A. Peterson will be the principal
speaker.
Kjerulf Club has arranged for private
celebration at the Odin club rooms. The
society will sing the songs of Norway and
Henry ]. Gjertsen and Sigvart Sorenson
will speak Of the day.
The Viking Singing society is also in
: terested in observing the day and will
/ keep open house at Goetzemeier's hall,
: Fourth street and Twentieth avenue N,
where there will be music, addresses and
a ball.

shower baths will be placed there. The
rear extends over the lake bank, and a

worn by these organizations, but it was
later discarded for the regulation blue.
The First Encampment.

The First Encampment.
The first annual incampment was held
at White Bear Lake in 1882, and was
called Camp Hubbard. The 1883 encamp-
nent was held at the same place. In
1884 the camp was held at Lake Calhoun
and wss known as Camp Sheridan. At
that time very few employers would al
low their men vacations to attend camp,
so the boys were forced to work all day
and then go to camp in the evening, stand
guard at night, and take the early train
for town in the morning.
The encampments for 1885 and 1886 are
again held at White Bear Lake in July,
and had large attendance, being estab-
| lished for six days. .-. -
| The encampment of 1887 lasted ten days
and was held at Fort Smelling in July,
| being the last of the encampments to be
| held elsewhere than at Lake City.
The first Lake City encampment was
in July, 1883, and was such pleasant one
that the citizens Immediately took steps
| to secure the permanent location of the
state camp grounds. A committee was
appointed to secure the site, and tender
| the same to the state. 1t was then found
that the plat figured on was outside the
city limits and an extension of the limits
was made in order to allow the city to
purchase. --.. - 80
The citizens committee, accordingly
| went before the legislature and in 1891
| secured the enactment of a law. which re-
| quired the state to accept the tract OF
land consisting of $50 acres. "and to hold
thereon such encampments as may be
ordered by the proper authorities of the
state for the next thirty years The act
was approved March 81, 1891, and conse.
quently, clear title will not revert to the
state until March 10, 1921.
From that day improvements have beer
made each year. But to the present ad
jutant general Elias D. Libbey, belong:
the greatest credit, for it has been under
his administration that the big improve
ments have been wrought. Last year h
ordered complete overhauling of the
grounds, and the laying of mains con

The opening of spring each year brings
renewed activity in the ranks of the Ma
tional Guard. recruiting becomes active
again and everyone puts forth his best
efforts to prepare for camp. The state
National Guard is a UNIQUE organization.
In it will be found the orator, politician,
lawyer, the solemn judge, physician, the
actor, the merchant, the tradesman and
the poker player, and during the encamp-
ments the combination often brings out
much mirth. They all throw aside the
dignity of their daily vocation, and dur

They Enjoy Camp Life.
Camp Lakeview is now model military
campground and nearly every luxury en-
joyed by the civilian at home can now be
enjoyed by the soldier in camp. There are
fine mess halls, with kitchens attached,
tables to eat from, and benches and chairs

Adiutant General E. D. Libbey and his

there was little inducement for members
of tho guard to attend the. encampment
