Band Sails For Norvav

Luther College concert band of De-

Norway will be one of the attractions
at the Centennial Exposition there this
year left on the ,Christianiafiord for
their trip across the Atlantic from New
York on May 5. Ralph Forde and Geo.
A. Boolson of Brooten are members
who will make this trip, returning
about August 1.
Before leaving this band gave a series
of concerts in the largest cities Of the
United States. A concert trip will also
De made after their return from Nor
way.
The equipment of this band which
numbers 60 members is as complete as
that of any similar organization in Am
erica. In fact it possesses one instru-
ment that is new to bands and orches-
tras. This is the nabimba, an instru-
ment placed on the market only during
the last six months and which is to the
band what the harp is to the orchestra.
This band also has twenty bar set Of
cathedral chimes, the same equipment
That Is carried by Sousa, Pryor and 9th

NORWAY'S RISE

Why "SWtende Mai" Is Celebrat.
ed as Great National
Holiday.
STORY OF EARLY STRUGGLES
Country Can Now Boast Of the High
est Degree Of Liberty Ever
Enjoyed by Any Nation
in the World.

As far back as reliable history car
rios US the countries of Denmark,
Norway and Sweden have been in
habited by people of Germanic stock.
with the exception of the extreme
north, whore Firms have lived as nom
ads from time lmmemorial.
Until about nine hundred years ago
the people of the north spoke prac-
tically the same language, generally
known as Old Morse. Before the year
800 they were divided between num-
Der OF petty kings. When King Har-
aid Haarfagre (Fairhaired) united the
various domains into one kingdom, In
S72. 1t is said that he could boast that
he had subdued 81 petty kings. Den
mark became one kingdom under the
powerful CORN the Old, about the
year 900. Almost at the same time
large parts of the present Sweden
were subdued by kings of the Ynglin-
ga family.
In modern times the people of the
North are generally called Scandina.
VANS. This appellat1on is derived
from the name Of the southernmost
portion of Sweden, now called Skane,
which is sometimes Latinized into
Scania or Scandal. An English lin
guist suggested "Scandian" for Scan
dinavian. but he has found few fol
lowers.
Attempts to Unite Countries.
For moro than nine hundred years
attempts have been made time and
again to eliminate one or two of the
three Scandinavian kingdoms. Their
Inhabitants are of the same stock
their languages are SO much alike that
they can easily understand each other
and their religion Is the same. The
argument has been-why not unite
