Only six years have passed since
Henrik 1bsen's death, and already a
complete photography of Ibsenana
would be bulky thing. Two new
works on Ibsen have appeared in Eng
fish. One is Vols. 9-13 of William
Archer's Viking edition of Ibsen's
works, and the other is what might be
called a textbook on Ibsen and his
works, by Prof. Otto Heller. Prof.
Heller writes of 1bsen as the "chief
expositor Of ideas which specifically
distinguish our age from the past and
as the discOverer Of new vehicle for
their expression-of Ibsen the moralist
and 1bsen the poet. A score of years
ago Ibsen was still universally the OBJ

toric parsonage and his great cultural
significance is acknowledged in all
parts Of the civilized world. While
still living his historic Importance was

The annual midsummer ski run at
Firse was no pleasant treat to those
who took part in it. The weather
was wet and stormy. Still the tourna-
ment was success. There were
many contestants and a large number
Of spectators. Most of them came
with special train from Bergin, and
the Firse hotel was overcrowded.
Twenty-Five ladies and gentlemen
went on their skis to the jokel (sum-
mit) in the night, but the fog pre-
vented them from enjoying the view
Of the surrounding country. There
were no less than 48 contestants In
the long distance jump. There were
few falls, and the jumps were between
Is and 80 feet. The first prize, the
Frise cup, was won by O. Skjelsbak,
Drammen.
A big moose lost his life in a ne.

head, for the wire was turned around
his neck so as to choke him to death,
Some Of the insulators were broken
loose from their positions on the poles.

Every woman Is apt to mourn ovel

None OF us like to think of ourselves
as fools and when we have made mis-
takes 1t is apt to take the life out oi
our efforts, at least for q while. and
give US a very discouraged and dis
heartened outlook upon life. II is but
natural to feel sorry for our blunders
and It certainly would not do for u
to pass over them lightly and not think
Of them at all II is exactly as fool
Ish, however, to brood over them and
feel that they can mar our future
work.
Mistakes, failures. blunders. all can
be made useful to US; made to serve
US, II we but go about 1t in the right
way, not regarding them either too
morbidly or too lightly.

Don't be discouraged; discourage

face the failure and admit It frankly

attempt to make excuses or try to
blame 1t upon some one else. AT the
same time determine that you will
learn from experience and that the
blunder will not be made again.
Study your mistake, whether 1t came
