SUMMARY OF IMPORTANT HAP.
PENINos IN FAR OFF

ITEMS FROM THE OLD HOME
Resume Of the Most Important Events
In Sweden, Norway and Denmark
OF Interest to the seandInavlans
In America.

Ottawa. Ont--Danish and Swedish
army reservists living in Ottawa
called at newspaper Offices and stated
that they had received orders to re-
port for duty at the earliest possible
moment. The orders reached them
by mail. The statement that DAN
.ish and Swedish reservists have been
called to the colors has caused much
surprise here.
On November the Swedish people
remembered that the day was the one
hundredth anniversary of the union
OF Sweden and Norway under one
king. which was dissolved June Z.
1905. Nine years ago, when the Nor
wegian storthing declared the union
at an end, war between the two coun-
tries was barely averted. Now the
relations are extremely and openly
cordial In every way. Norwegian pa
pers are quoting and indorsing an
editorial In the Dagens Nyheter, a
leading paper of Stockholm, which
says: 1.-THE union is dissolved. But
who would In 1905 have dared to
dream that within decade it would
develop that this catastrophe. so far
from destroying the essential idea of
the union, would, on the contrary,
lead to a much closer friendship and
make 1t more easy for Sweden and
Norway now to stand shoulder to
shoulder in resisting every attack on
the liberty and independence of the
Scandinavian peninsula? There is
now in both countries a feeling Of
closest friendship and of joy over that
which happened In 1906"

father last night to give him some
idea, but the old gent was just as
much up in the air as Wilfred, so
brother finally wrote this little poem.
He says he don't think he has earned
the check, but it sounds all right to
