SERVICES AT TRINITY CHURCH

Yesterday at Trinity Church splendid
congregations were present, anu hearu
interesting sermons by the pastor,
both night and morning. The singing
OF the choir was al especial feature.
and was unusually affecting. The
subject OF the morning sermon was,
In spirit with the season--the Soul S
Spring Time. Taking as text,
Song OF Solomon, ,, II. The flowers
appear on the earth; the time OF the
singing birds IS come" He showed
that the spirit OF the spring meant
beauty and music. and that to get In
the splrit OF the spriug, there must be
music in tho soul, and that nothing
was more beautiful than the beauty Of
holiness and more full OF music than a
heart in tune with the Infinite The
pastor told OF some Of his boyhood i'm
pressioDs OF nature and how hc used TO
love the green hills and the trees, and
the woods, and the singing birds, and
went on to tell how that the din 81
business and the roar Of commerclaIism
had dulIed our eyes to the infinite
sweetness OF nature. He pleaded with
the people to let the spirit OF spring
take hold Of thcui, and so fill their
lives with more Of the real JOY that
God had intended for all to have, and
that il they did this, there would be no
doubt about the eternal spring, beside
the tree Of life and where IuUs the
river OF life, clear as crystal.

that his declaration in favor of the
language movement was made pri-
vately. General Bratlie, the conserv-
alive leader, answer in moderate
terms, expressing the hope that there
would be continued cooperation be-
tween the conservatives and the lib
erals. The debate will be resumed
this week and much excitement is
expected. The radical newspapers de-
clare that the fight is none of theirs,
but concerns exclusively the minis
terial parties.
(The language commonly and Off
cially used in Norway is identical
with that of Denmark. Efforts have
been in progress for many years TO
make it more distinctive by adopting
words and phrases from the numer-
Gus dialects of the country. To some
extent this has been done. Most of
the literature of Norway is in the so
called Danish language)

NORWAY WORRIED
OVER LANGUAGE

CHRISTIANIA, Norway, February
12.-The ministerial crisis holds the
attention of Norway. Premier Konow
long has been unpopular in the con-
sentative party, which, with the lib
eral left constitutes the cabinet
party. Some time ago he declared
himself a warm friend of the move
ment to readopt the old Norwegian
language in a modern form construct
ed from dialects which, for the most
part, are used in western Norway.
This movement has become a bitter
political issue. The conservatives in
the storthing, who oppose the plan,
sent manifesto to the premier de-
claring that they no longer had the
necessary confidence in him. Herr
Konow, however refused to resign.
The five conservative members of the
cabinet offered their designations, but
the king, while accepting them,
asked the ministers to remain at
their posts pending the appointment
of their successors.
The situation is difficult one. No
group is able to form a cabinet alone

Silent on the Harvey Episode.
The governor would not discuss the
Harvey-Watterson episode, leaving
things like that to his private secre-
tary, Walter Measley. The latter in
sisted that in Kentucky, where it was
feared some damage might have been
done to the Wilson cause, the reverse
was the case.
"They approve thoroughly in Ken

took" said the private secretary.
Governor Wilson met the luncheon
guests at a public reception between

shook hands with Democrats repre-
senting all factions and had a smile
and a pleasant word for all who
| greeted him.
Governors Personal Traits.
With a keen eye he took in all the
surroundings. His features are sharp
and those who talked with him were
ready to testify his wit had edge tc

gray and in personal appearance his

termined and not easily swayed. His
campaign managers assert he likes

Discusses the Referendum.
Governor Wilson was not adverse
to discussing the initiative and refer
endum and the recall of judges.
Il have found no one opposing the
initiative and referendum who calls it
substitute for representative gov
eminent" said the governor. Where
a more direct appeal to the people is
wanted, the initiative and referendum
opens the avenue of relief. In such
cases it is more or less a question
local to the state. Each state knows
its own situation and where the influ-
ence of his business is working
against the will of the people the ini-
tiative and referendum is a means of
redress.
