VERY PROSPEROUS
THEIR WEALTH THREE TIMES AS
GREAT AS NoRWAY's

port of His Plea for Parochial Schools
Convention Takes an Outing This
Afternoon.
The combined wealth Of the NorWe-
gians in the United States amounts to
three times as much as the whole ma
tional wealth Of Norway. Such was the
statement made by Rev. u. Foss presi-
dent Of the Pacific district, at the SEES
sion of the Norwegian synod today.
Mr.. F0ss read a paper on the work
necessary to be done for the better re-
ligious training of the young people. He
insisted that the Norwegian Lutherans
tain their own system of parochial
schools, and it was in support of this
position that he made the somewhat
surprising statement quoted. Reclaimed
to have secured reliable statistical data
on the subject.
His paper opened the discussion to
which nearly the whole morning session
was devoted. The point made by him
and by the others taking part in the
doing something to keep the young peo-
pie from drifting away from the old
mornings. The remedy suggested was
| a thoro and systematic course of early
religious training in schools established
by the church.
At the opening of the session, Mr.
Dickinson, rep1 esenting the American
Bible society, was heard in an appeal
for assistance in the great work done
by the society for all Christian demon
nations.
On motion of Professor DR.. J. Ylvi
saker, the synod passed a vote OF
thanks to the members Of the chora!
union for the two splendid concerts
in the Auditorium; and expressed the
| hope that the good work for the i'm
| provement of the church music may g
! on. In order to show appreciation Of
the singers, the synod decided to holt
no afternoon session today, but to Civ
members an opportunity to Join tn
outing at Minnetonka. The motto,
to this effect was declared carried b.
President Koren. Rev. A. X. Sagen
president Of the Wisconsin district, oh
iected, however, to wasting a Who'll
afternoon i'll pleasure excursion.
rising vote was then taken, and tn
meeting seemed to be pretty evenly di
vided; the heart Of the venerable ger
eral president is young, and he decide
that the ayes had it. A concessio
was made to the members who wante
to 20 on with the work, by an agree
ment to prolong the forenoon sessio
until 1 O'Clock.
The president announced. the appoint
ment Of a long list Of committees, an
then the rest of the time was spent i
exchanging views on the subject Of p;
rochial schools.
Rev. F. Sievers Of the German Mi
souri, synod and P.gO. Skaaden Of Oh
cago, and A. Anderson of Des Nome

of the meeting.

EMPLOYEES OF CARLSON
PLANT FISH AT T0NKA

The annual picnic Of the employees
of the Aaron Carlson plant took place
last Friday and Saturday. At Friday
afternoon all work in the plant was
stopped. About seventy-fv of the men
went to Spring Park, where the man
agement had made arrangements for
their entertainment. Almost all went
Immediately to the boathouse and,
armed with hooks and reels, they sped
away in quest Of black bass and timid
pickerel.~ Some Of the party remained
on the lake during the evening, but
others preferred to stay on land and eat
the fish they had caught and cooked
on the open outdoor fires. Saturday,
likewise holiday, was as proftably
! employed, and work opened Monday
morning when the men returned re-
freshed and rested after their Joyous
trip.
When the first fishing trip was taken
| it was by no means as gigantic an af-
fair as the excursion was Saturday.
| Year by year the expenses Of the trip
have increased, but year by year there
| have been more to be benefited, so the
custom continues and the employees of
the plant wait eagerly for that time of
the year when the annual picnic comes.
