SENTIMENT OF Song
Address to Teachers at Normal School
BY A. j. Linden After. Close
Study of Public School Music. !

The 600 or more students and teach
ers attending the summer school at the
normal were delightfully."- entertained
this morning, during the chapel hour,
with an address on Public School Mus
ic. by A J. Linden of Pine River,
partment of education of Minnesota.
Mr.. Linden Is a music lover and par
ticularly the true Interpretation and
sentiment of music. and wants every
child in the public schools to perfectly
understand what he or she is singing,
no matter whether it is a hymn, a lul-
laby, or a patriotic song. rt
Mr.. Linden possesses a rich baritone
voice which affords him the opportun-
1ty to demonstrate Just what he wish
es to in%culcate into the minds of the
teachers whom he addresses. AS a
preface to his address. he sang a. group
Of three songs, each one illustrating
a different sentiment. The first one
interpreted was Bandolero, by Leslie
Stewart. and the artistic rendition of 1t
by Mr.. Linden stirred his hearers to
liberal applause. He was accompanied
with distinction by Miss Margaret
Curran. He sang again at the close of
his remarks. .-.,.
Mr.. Linden says much is heard
about the value of music in the rural
schools and to teach it teachers must

is not an absolute necessity. A little
knowledge will go a great way. A
particular requirement is the posses
sion of the trio of HIS in education,
hand, head and heart. To be successful
along this line teachers should. cult
vate a large appreciation of the senti-
ment in the song. Teaching patriotism
through song Is of no value unless

songs and told how they furnished
plenty of variety. He described the
sentiments contained in the songs,
Sweet and Law, the scene of which
was on the coast of England; and The
Old Oaken Bucket, and the occasion
Of it's composition. Some songs filled
a double purpose as the study of the
words of The Minstrel Boy will dem

Lang Syne Is expressive of friendship
and Old Black Joe the love of home.

A perfect horde of clowns is coming
to this city next Wednesday, with the
tBarnum & Bailey circus, the glad as
surance is given, and s~ide-splitting
thilarity will prevail during the per-
formances. To the boy and the older
boy, his father, there is nothing in all
the varied catalogue Of the circus that
quite compares with, the crude and
genuine mirth the white-face cut-ups
provide. "
The clown is an inherent part of
mans attitude toward life. There
have always been clowns in the past;
there will always be clowns in some
form. The circus clown as we knew
him in the days of youth is slowly
passing. What is left of him are
scattered and impersonal remnants Of
the old individual Jester. He has be-
come a medley, a multitude of alb,
.,stracts, a whirlwind of unidentified
comedy.
The reason is quite obvious. The
lBarnum & Bailey arena is sonIarge that
there must needs be a small army of
fun makers in order to simultaneously.
the great audience; nothing can
stand out individuality. Formerly one
clown was the synosure of all eyes.

DR.. NELSON FUNERAL
Cortege Over Mile L~ons-Four Clergy.
mon Assist in Impressive Obse-
quies at Homo and Church.

All that was mortal Of DR.. Louis
Nelson of Moorhead vas laid to rest
in a grave in the burying ground SUR
rounding the Swedish Lutheran church
at Lake Park, yesterday afternoon, in
the presence Of possibly the largest
assembly of relatives and friends eve
gathered to take part in the last rites
for a friend and citizen at that place.
In the funeral procession, from the
home of the bereaved parents OF DR..
Nelson, to the church, there were APP
proximately 200 vehicles, lis of them
automobiles.
Obsequies for DR.. Nelson consisted
of two services, one at the home of the
parents of the deceased. where the
body had been resting since the acci-
dent. and that was followed by a
service to be attended by the general
public at Eksjo church at Lake Park.
-Four clergymen participated in the
services. n Of whom was Mrs. Mel
sons old pastor. under whom she wor-
SHIPPED before her marriage, and an
other Of the officiating ministers was
Rev. n. o. Grunden. pastor Of the
Swedish Lutheran church at Fargo,
who knew DR.. Nelson quite intimately.
He conducted the service proper and
made the closing address. The ad-
dress in English was made by the pas
tor Of the church at Detroit. The
service at the house was Of an hours
duration and the n at the church
over two hours.
The musical numbers for the service
were supplied by a quartctte from the
Odine Singing society, Minneapolis, of
which DIR. Nelson had been a member.
The music was beautifully rendered
and all Of il was Of a high standard
and peculiarly APPROPRIATED Among
the pail bearers were DR.. Bricker and
DR.. Green of Fargo, A. J. Norby.
Charles Foss and Henry Bjorke. The
floral tributes sent by friends and or
CARNATIONS were in great p%rofusion
and all very beautiful, and they promi-
nently demonstrated the high esteem
and respect which he enjoyed in the
hearts of the people generally at his
home in Lake Park and the numerous
acquaintance at Moorhead and De-
troit. where the name of DR.. Nelson
was almost a household name.

WHEN ARE OUR
HAPPiEST YEARS.

National Magazine: During a trip
to Pennsylvania, a story was told Of
the late Henry III. Rogers of Standard
Gil fame. After a lapse of Many wears
Mr.. Rogers visited the town of Nc
C~lntockyille, and the oil fields where
he began the working in al refinery.
As he stood before the little cottage
where he and Mrs. Rogers began keep
ing house. he told Of the days when
he used to go to the stream with a
pail for water and help his wife with
the Washings on Mondays.t He had
now become a millionaire. but when
he finished the story he turned to a
friend and said: dc you know that
after all those years were the happiest
all to ourselves4and not the target of
the envious.'
Despite evidence like this from men
who have won millions, the Ameri-
can people seem to insist upon
straining, fighting and battling for the
wealth that takes away the comfort
and content of humble home and oc-
cupation and stirs up distrust and
Al change seems apparent, how
ever, in the ideals Of coming genera
tions. The teachings thai infiame the
popular mind against those who have
wealth merely because they have
wealth, and from a spirit OF envy, are
now recognized as. infrnical to he best
interests of the republic. There is
much II, the life i many m~illionaires
that ought to excite sympathy rather
than envy, like the case OF the young
heiress who recently ran away just to-
have a home-a real home-away
from the surveillance OF servants and
the burden of conventionalities.'
The statesmen who can inspire the
average n a and woman, boy or girl
with an appreciation of their real
blessings. and check the dangerous
agitators who are simply seeking to-
lash public sentiment into
able passion, are those who will win
the appreciation of ~posterity.
The late MI. Rogers was the close
friend OF Mark Twain, and when the
latter was la financial straits his friend
came to him promptly. Marx, he
said. after the two had talked matters
over, this isl one time am glad
there is such a thing as money, as III

the privileged jester who could do
absolutely as he pleased. Now he--or
the vast band of him-is merely n
cog in a great amusement machine.
Personal appeal has yielded to organ
ization and ensemble.
The fun of the modern clowns lies
in their original conceptions, their gro
tesque costumes and their mechanical
effects, and it is quite as effectively
and spontaneously uproarious as that
in the days of the one-ring tent. Dogs,
pigs, and even a kangaroo are their
allies; dummies and patrol wagons
give aid; they, dress like policemen,
.rubes, young and old women, suffra-
lgettes, highlanders and giraffes, giants
and midgets walk side by side.
Barnum Sc Bailey have ransacked
the world for its cleverest and most
original clowns. Their comicalities are
a ceaseless joy of creation and bur
lesque. Jim Rutherford, Art Jarvis,
Flatiron, Jim Rossi, Hart Bros. Pierre
KerfeYser, T. Jerome, Denver Darling,
Carl Milvo, Pat Waldo, Butch Siegrist,
Ernest Anderson and Jack and Tony
are among them. Their names are
synonymous of mirth unrestricted
wherever the circus is known.

MOORHEAD NORMAL

The summer session of the Moor
head Normal school will close next
Wednesday morning with the gradual
ing exercises for the forty or more
students who will complete, on that
day, one of the courses of study. The
work is drawing to a close. with the
same sobriety and interest that
characterized the whole session.
Many students plan to take examina-
tions, given by the state for credits
on certificates, on July 81 at the
normal auditorium where they will be
given by Miss Eleanor Rushfeldt.
Some students will write here and
have their papers sent in to the
markers with those from counties
from which the students come. Many,
however, plan to take the examina-
tions in their home counties. There
are students attending the, school VINO
will take the tests in t~wenty-one diff
ferent counties.
Next Monday evening, at Wheeler
hall, there will be a reception for the
members of the graduating class. The
graduating exercises will be held July
80 at 10 o'clock in the morning, and
will consist of the usual chapel exer-
cises, of an address by Pres. L. c.
Lord, Of Charleston, ILL.,; and of the
presentation of diplomas by Resident
Director c. G. Dosland, who is
authorized by the board to do SO.
Miss Tryphina Anderson of Monte
video was a guest at the halls for a
day the first Of the week. She came
up from home with her brothers In
a machine, stopped off here for a visit,
and returned home Tuesday even
ing.
The automobile trips and ice cream
refreshment arranged for by the Y.
W. G. A, Monday evening made a gala
occasion and afforded man. of the
students a fine ride about the two
cities and delicious refreshments
afterward.
Mr.. A. j.. Linden, Of Pine river, APP
peared at the school this morning,
sent to us by the state department
of education, and gave the students a
stimulating talk on public school
music. Mr.. Linden sang several solos
with fine effect.
The letter which President Weld
promised he would send, was read to
the school Wednesday morning and
was greeted with Joy and listened to
with absolute attention. The letter
was in the nature of an account of
the ship and the sea voyage, and was
full of stories and incidents that oc-
Cured. The letter was %assuredly one
Of the memorable things of the sum
mer's chapel exercises. Another would
be most welcome!
The programme of physical culture
exercises by students in Miss Speak
mans reading class, and the series of
four readings given Friday morning
were brief, but as finely finished as
any witnessed by the members of the
school. The physical culture work was
as graceful and charming in rhythm
of movement as the work can we'll be.
The readings were done with. assur-
ance and fine technique. These were
as follows:
