SONS OF NORWAY
 DANCE ON THEIR
 BIG ANNIVERSARY

The Sons Of Norway will celebrate their independence day tomorrow, the big feature being held at Doug las. This event will be in the nature of an anniversary dance and will be In Eagles hall.
 The 17th of May has the same significance to Norway and Nor wegians, as the 4th Of July has to America and Americans: the ami versary of the country's declaration of independence. The only differ ence is the independence Of Norway was declared under the most trying and adverse conditions that could befall a nation, and the birth of her liberty is therefore probably dearer to her sons and daughters than that of many other existing nations
 For four hundred years-from 1867 to 1814-Norway suffered an inglor- lous and humiliating union with Denmarks. During this union the country was, through misgovernment and by continuous wars, reduced to pltiful conditlon-the population depleted and confronted by financial ruin. During the Napoleonic wars the king of Denmark and Norway allied himself with Napoleon. Af- ter his downfall at Waterloo in 1913 and during the reconstruction of his territory the powers decided at Kiel In 1913 10 punish Denmark by giving Norway over to Sweden and it's new king, Carl Johan Bernadotte, who helped materially to defeat Napoleon, his former empero rand benefactor.
 When the news of this treaty reached Norway everyone thus ob- jected to be thus given over to his country's enemy. War with Sweden and England followed. as they were determined to make Norway comply with the decision of the powers
 Thus in war with England on one side and Sweden on the other, with out @ government or acknowledged ruler, the people starving because of successive failures of crops, and the strict blockade which the English men O war kept on all seaports, the Norwegians faced a-period Of prlya- tion and hardship that has few par allels in history. But during this very period they elected representa- tiyces who assembled at Eidsvold in 1874 and on the 17th day of May of that year declared themselves q free and independent people, and re-es. tablished the old kingdom of Nor way with a constitution more demo- cratic. perhaps. than any republican form of government now In existence
 This took place more than 100 years ago and on this centenary celebra- ton Norweglans have every reason to be proud of their country's pro- gress in the past century.
 Illlteracy is unknown, and Norway stands today as one of the leading nations of Europe in general educa- ton. in art literature. and industrial progress.

DIR. J. A. SUTHERLAND IS BACK FROM
 WAR IN EUROPE

SEATTLE. May g.-American resi- dents abroad, at least in London and Paris, feel that the government of the United States has been lax and are indignant that she has not taken a firmer stand on the submarine con troversy. according to Dr. James Ar thur Sutherland, who Is on his way to his home in Fairbanks, Alaska, after spending several months in the hospitals of the two foreign capitals. says the Post Intelligencer.
 Her citizens in Europe feel al- most ashamed of the United States in the exchange of notes on the submarine issue with the central powers" he said yesterday at the Frye. Not that they want to see the country ir the war. they only feel that 1t should take a firm stand in diplomatic issues"
 Laugh At Unpreparedness
 Americans in the European cities laugh at the lack of unpreparedness at home, calling the nation foolish ly blind" Dr. Sutherland went on. On other subjects, however, he en- countered no criticism of the admin istration.
 The most remarkable impression pr. Sutherland gained from his ex- perience behind the lines was of the absolute certainty the French peo- pie have of ultimate victory. When he left Paris. on March 14, the great battle of Verdun had been seventeen days in progress. and yet there was cheerfulness everywhere.
 'The men and women are gritty and loyal" he said. "They feel that they are fighting for their very existence. Nine out of ten women are in black, mourning for some one lost in the war. but show no regret at their sacrifice. l found that the French people are very grateful for what assistance the Americans and Red Cross give them in hospital work"
 Dr. Sutherland served from Novem- Der until March in the American ann bulance hospital at Paris, an insti- tuition supported by individual Amer icans in Europe. He invented O new splint for hospital use which was adopted by the allies surgeons, and brought him considerable attention. All the physicians in the hospital ser vice servo without remuneration.
 The Fairbanks physician and his wife. who has been travelling with him, were at the mouth Of the River Thames when six hostile aeroplanes attacked Deal and Ramsgate. They were able to watch the counter at- tack of the war vessels. and fortifi- cations and British machines. The Cunarder Andania on which they crossed the Atlantic on their return journey, made e detour to avoid sub- marines. which made her trip 800 miles longer than the usual course.
 Beds at the Paris hospitals are be- ing emptied as quickly as possible in anticipation of the larger movements of the spring and summer. according to Dr. Sutherland The convalescents are being sent to the south of the country"
