The entertainment given by Madam
Rosenberg Sunday evening was of the
very best The songs she sang were
songs we all used to sing in the little
Danish homes across the sea, but she
sang them with new life and sweetness.
Nothing is more characteristic of a
nation than their old songs and the way
they are sung. The old Danish songs,
our fOlk-SOngs, that we sing. that our
parents have sung and still join in when
they hear them, that their parents sang
and so on generation after generation,
are in themselves our best history. And
when we hear them it is as picture after
picture is being uncovered for us, we
see all the noblest men and women of
our little country, we see the beautiful
woods, running brooks and little homes
that look as though they had been on
the verge of cJtlapSeing for more than a
hundred years. We see all the things
that we loved most and feel that we
must live up to the old standard. We
try and our people and as Mr.. Roosevelt
las often said by being lin this case,
good Danes they will be good American
citizens. We thank Madam Rosenberg
for again bringing this clearly to mind
She promises to come again i'll yeal
and certainly all will welcome her
