High schools for adults are one of
the original features of the Danish
school system. There are now eighty
two such schools with $1,000 pupils.
The main object Of these schools Is to
impart to- one a spirited view OF life,
so that they may see there is some
sense In their existence and some con-
nection in all that happens, in little as
well as in great events. They will
thus be prepared to enter on the work
Of life with good hope and faith--the
faith that there is In direction from
above in all that happens.
Holger Drachmann, the poet, Is re-
receiving treatment at DIR. Torilds

vessels and his many friends believe
that he will once more be able to re-
sumo his literary work. Z
