met some of the Danish people here.
Herr Christensen left Denmark in Feb.

the Gulf of Mexico then by rail TO
Solvang, California and since then has
| travelled over the greater part of the U.

larger colonies. From here he will
leave for Des Moines, thence to Grayling
where he will take part in the large
Danish Church Conference and from
there will return to Denmark after see
ing Niagara Falls and the Capitol.
Herr Christensen does not speak the
English language which makes his dar.
ing even greater for man of his age.
