Sunday School Resumes Work

The Sunday school of Our Savior's
Lutheran church will next Sunday re-
sumo work after a vacation of about
two months. This Sunday school does
not meet during the summer months,
the congregation providing for a par
ochial school of one month during the
summer to take it's place. Thus tie
scholars, while missing eight or ten
hours of Sunday school, are given in
their place 20 full days OF parochial
school, with a teacher especially quail
fled for the work in charge. Mr.. Grei-
sbrok, now of Conrad, Mont, had
charge of the school this summer.
The first regular meeting Of the
Sunday school for this term will be
held Sunday at IL o'clock All Sunday
school scholars are then expected to
be present. 1t is also to be hoped that
all of last years teachers will. again
offer their services and meet with the
school on Sunday. s..s
There will be classes for all; pic
ture chart class for those too young
to read; classes in both Norwegian
and English languages for those read
ing Bible history, catechism, explain
alton and A, B. G. There will also this
year be Bible class for those wishing
to take the Bible study. Those pass
ing the examination in this study
based on the outline furnished by the
state will be given half credit on
his or her high school course.
All children willing to receive re-
ligious instruction may join this Sun
day school. .5a5s

Norway sCreat
Cabinet Officer
Spoke on War

Fargo, Sept. 15.-Speculation as to
the possibility of the three Scandinav-
ian countries entering the European
war taking opposite sides, which has
been rife in the American press, was
set at rest by Wilhelm Mongenstierne,
the Norwegian diplomat, in his lecture
at the Sons of Norway hall last night.
Mr.. Mogenstierne devoted the
greater part of his address to very
interesting discussion of the situation
in which Norway found itself at the
outbreak of the war. He spoke en-
Enthusiastically of the state of prosper
ity which Norway has enjoyed during
the last decade and of the phenom-
email development along many lines so
excellently illustrated at the centen-
NAL exposition last year. While this
era of prosperity and industrial de-
velopment was at it's highest the
marching of the armies and the roar
Of the cannons resounded through
Europe and before long four-ffths of
the entire population of the old world
was engaged in deadly conflict.
Mr.. Morgenstierne pictured wildly
the days of panic and excitement that
followed the declaration of war, soon
to be followed by period of serious
contemplation. He spoke Of the ire
mendous impression the sad fate of
Belgium made in Norway and how
the people woke up to full realiza-
ton of the necessity of preparation.
The first step in the direction of bet
ter protection was the conference held
by the rulers Of the three Scandina-
Wan countries at which it was decided
that no steps should be taken by
either nation that might tend to bring
them jointly or separately into the
conflict ,..
The fact that Norway up to this
time has been able to maintain it's
neutrality the speaker ascribed to
luck. 1.-THE danger is not passed; few
people in this country realize how
difficult it is to remain neutral. Nor
wegion warships are continually be-
ing called upon to drive away war
ships of the warning nations seeking
protection in the fjords of Norway"
said Mr.. Morgenstierne.
The address was listened to with
rapt attention by the audience that
filled the Sons of Norway hall. In his
opening remarks the speaker express
ed his qualification for the privilege
of speaking in North Dakota, the state
which more than any other had hon
ored Norway on the occasion of the
centennial celebration. The "Orpheus'
Singing society and Miss Helga Olson
of Minneapolis, contributed splendid
musical entertainment The meeting
was held under the auspices of the
local branch Of the Independent Scan
dinavian Working Mems association.

GATEWAY OF NORTH CAROLINA

The Cape Fear River, upon the le1t
bank of which Wilmington is located,
80 miles from its mouth. is under I'M
provement by the United states in the
interests of navigation. The project
below Wilmington under execution
was adopted in the river and harbor
act approved July 25, 1912, and pro
vides for a channel depth Of 26 feet
at mean low water, with width OF
800 feet, increased at entrance ana
curves in the river and WlGened 10
400 feet across the bar. The proJect
is seventy-five per cent completed, the
depth having been. secured through
out the entire distance, additional
work being required only to widen
the channel where width is denclent.
During the five years ending June
80, 1914 $1,457,214.24 were expended
on this portion Of the river, in the
execution and maintenance or the ex-
listing and prior projects.
The commerce on. the Cape Fear

aged 945,361 tons, with an average
valuation of $55,6S5,101 for the five
