MAY POSSIBLY GET TOGETHER
The Factions in Norwegian Lutheran
Church May Unite

A conference of joint committee
from the Lutheran churches of the
United and Synod branches was neld at
Madison last week 10 agree upon a rec
oncilstion of the factions on doctrinal
points.
There are about 1000 churches in
these two large branches of the Nor
wegian Lutherans in the United States
representing about $40, 600, 600 in prop
erty. The United Lntheraus number
about 800, 600 souls and the Synod Luth-
Grams about 200, 600. There are other
Norwegian Butherans, such as the
Rauge Synod, which numbers about
rs. COO and the Free church, a small eff
shoot of the United Lntherans. There
are practically no difficulties between
the United Lutherans and the Hauge
people and the latter have had oppor-
tunity to affiliate with the former, but
so faI have pursued their independent
way Whether in the event of the
union of the two other large Lutheran
denominations the Hauge church will
also desire a union remains to De seen.

Never tires; always doing something
helpful; thorough and honest man
wherever placed, is the rule that may
be Jplied to the gentleman whose pic
ture appears above. For some years
Mr.. Ellefson has been secretary and
treasurer of the big Viroqua creamery
company, and he brought system where
chaos prevailed. Every patron feels
secure in the knowledge that an honest.
thorough administration will come
where Mr.. Ellefson applies the rule of
business and conduct.
Mr.. Ellefson has been prominently
identified with the activities of Vernon
county since 1866, when he settled in
the town of Franklin after residence
and siege of Indian fighting as a citi-
zen of South Dakota. He tired of that
and has not been sorry of his change.
Mr.. Eliefson served Franklin as clerk,
assessor, treasurer and sixteen years
represented his people on the county
board, doubtless holding the record as
the member who has longest served
Vernon county in that capacity After
removing to Viroqua Mr. Ellefson re-
presented one of the wards in that body.
Mr.. Ellefson also Represented the west
ern section of Vernon county in the
state legislature, when the county had
two assembly districts for two terms.
In all his activities as public servant
it may with entire justice be said of
Chris Ellefson that he has implicitly
been trusted, and kept we'll the trust.
Mr.. Ellefson was born in Norway in
1912, where he received good educa.
ton and came to America 1860. With
his wife MIR. Ellefson now lives a quiet
life in this city. They have six children,
who are following actively and sue
cessfully the occupation laid down by
the parents, who have earned the rest
and quiet they are enjoying.

CHANCE TO SECURE BALANCE
Weather Gives Opportunity to Take
Down Balance of Tobacco

1t had not been generally understood
that quite fraction of last year 8 tob-
acco acreage was still hanging on poles
in sheds prior to last Thursday; that
there had been no chance to remove
the goods since the middle of Decem-
Der. The brief season of dampness
has cured the trouble and il is the
fault of growers If they still have TOD
acco on poles Stripping is again the
order in country districts. There has
been little cessation in deliveries at the
warehouses and shipment in eaf- load
lunches to outside packing points
John Brenn0n of Victory neighbour
hood delivered his five acres of tobacco
10 the Bekkedal warehouse In this city,
well pleased with his success in uisp0s-
ing of his crop after he had refused to
deliver to a foreign buyer with whom
he had contracted He signed an agree
ment for II and 4. but when the repre-
sentative inspected the goods on Mr..
Brennon's premises he refused 10 pay
more than 6 and 4. Thereupon the adj
vance money was returned and deliv-
cry made here as stated.

Many fine crops and good averages
have been found within the past few
days, one of the best being that of

ed three acres that yielded him $S21 %.

Better Prepare for the Change

The new town and village treasurers
to be elected in April will receive sal
aries instead of fees as compensation
for their services. In the case Of town
treasurers the salary will be fixed at
the April town meeting. In villages
the salary shall be fixed by the village
board at its last regular meeting pre-
ceeding the annual election. The law
further says taxes not paid before Feb

SCHOOL IS CLOSED ABRUPTLY
Building Completely Destroyed in
Old Cook District

Viroqua citizens who happened TO be
out on Wednesday night about ten o.
clock could not help but observe the
luridness of the eastern sky, and the
cause was explained by announcement
the following morning that the substan-
tial school house in Cook district had
been consumed by devouring flames.
1t is believed the loss was caused from
defective stove. FIRE being preeer-
we'd therein at night during the cold
weather. The building was something
of landmark, although having sub
stantial repairs within a few years.
The loss to district is fully covered by
insurance in the Utica Mutual, but in
dividual losses to scholars in books,
etc. is quite an amount. Miss Vina
McClurg is teacher in the district.

In the oil hyacinths kindly provision Of ma

place When most OF the moisture has passed
away from the bulb a strange thing happens. AT
the base OF each mother bulb number OF tiny
bubs begin to put in appearance; the

size and number. With the advent Of the plant

hyacinth bulbs. These dried on and stored
