Why ESTABLISHED--N ORTIZ Star

reasons Thai tie young people OF
the Fed River Valley might obtain an
education based on true Christian
principles, and that they might at tle
same time embrace religious instrue-
ton; that an opportunity might be
afforded to study the Swedish la:l-
guage; that there might be saving
aef time and money, as our young peo-
Pie thereby are offered an education
at cost, and near at home; and tina,
aYore advanced and more Immediate
ly practical work might be offered to
the young men and young women who
would feel out of place in the com
nlsn schools. Thus, recognizing the
present needs, and foreseeing the fu-
tuFe possibilities, the Swedish Luther
aus have established North Star Col
lege, and with such assistance as may
be received from others the institution
viii become the foremost in the val
ley.
