and paid homage to one of the
many Scandinavians who have
won the respect of the vast COM
munity. Mr.. Johnson has al
ready assumed his new duties in

Deacon Ludwig Waale, who has
been travelling all over the coun-
try since last Christmas in the
interest of a home for aged peo-
pie in Finmarken, Norway, re-
turned last week to Christiania.
His brother, Karl Johan Waale,
who is a farmer in Oregon, ac-
companied him on the voyage.
During his visit to this country,
Deacon Waale collected more
than $2,250 for the institution.
which it is proposed to establish
among the destitute old people
of the desolate Finmark.
A number of prominent Chica-
go Danes have formed a commit
tee which is preparing to ar
range banquet in honor of their
compatriot, Henry L. Hertz, for
merly collector of internal reve-
nue. for Cook county, Ill. The
occasion is the SEVENTEEN birth
day of Mr.. Hertz, which comes on
November 18. Mr.. Hertz was
the first president of the Danish
American association and was al
so one of the moving spirits in
the "Nykommerselskab," organ
lied in Chicago in 1906. For
many years he has been very &C
tive politically.
A League of Small and Sub
ject Nationalities has been or
ganized in this country for the
purpose of establishing a perma-
nent congress of such nationali-
ties. The league will hold it's
first meeting in Hotel McAlpin
on October %, 80 and 81, and
will discuss, among other sub
jects, that of an established and
lasting world peace after the
war. Among the representatives
who are organizing the league,
the following names appear:
Erode c. w. Rambusch, (for Den
mark); DR.. Johannes Hoving
(for Sweden); and Edwin O.
Hotter (for Norway. Whether
or not the league will try to
mingle in world-politics while
the war is still raging, has not
been announced.
1t was bad enough when the
United States government on
July 18th announced that it
would place an embargo on all
food and fuel exports to Norway,
Sweden and Denmark, but the
situation has become much more
serious since Great Britain last
week by royal proclamation
frightened the ropes around the
neck of Germany, incidentally,
hitting Scandinavia first. From
now on it will be practically i'm
possible to export any goods
from the allied countries, with
the sole exception of printed
matter, and in order to make the
new blockade absolutely effec-
tive, the governments have
agreed to deny coal to steamers
carrying export goods destined
to the northern countries. The
basic idea of this latest move is
to starve Germany, Austria and
Turkey, and, as some keen sight
ed writers infer, to force the
three northern countries into the
war on the side of the allies.

cessible from the scandinavian

TO START FURNACES
AT so. PITTSBURG

We clip the following FROM the
South Pittsburg Hustler regarding the
starting up of the furnaces at that
place:
Messrs. W. G. Baxter, Archie Barr
and o. NJ. Biddle. of Birmingham.
Ala. "a representing the, United States
Steel corporation, are here this week.
looking over the old plant Of the T..
@. 1. company which the steel kings
bought Of the old T. C. L company
some few years ago. and making esti.
mates on the remodeling ana restart-
ing Of the local iron industry. These
gentlemen, when interviweed by a re-
preventative of the press, would give
out no definite information, but sim
ply stated that the urgent demand for
iron. the great shortage and the inevi-
table increase in demand for this class
of material would more than likely be
the means Of the furnaces here start
ing up within few months The rep
resentatives of the steel magnates
we're enthusiastically inclined in their
report Of the conditions Of the local
mill and impressed the fact that the
machinery which has been stored
since the fires were drawn several
years ago Was in good condition and
that the expense Of rebuilding and
remodeling the structure. in the face
of the exorbitapt price Of such prod
ucts as iron, etc. would be very
small item to consider.
The fact that the local iron furnac'
es were closed down when the mark.
ct was slow. and by the big corpor
alton who W ere at that time buying
up all competition, and not because
of any shortage of raw material, il
seems now very reasonable that the
owners and promoters Of the furnaces
mean business. The starting mp Of
this iron industry. would mean much
more to South Pittsburg than the av.
erage citizen would imagine. II
would employ world Of common la.
Dor, most Of which would necessarily
have to be imported.
It would also call for many mechan-
les. Thousands of dollars would b
added to our monthly payroll.

Doctor MARYLAND is the only female
surgeon in the British army. Doctor
MARYLAND is a most unusual miss, and
the distinction which she holds has
been won by her great skill as a sur
geon.
She holds a reputation In her pri-
vate practice which makes her one of
the foremost women surgeons in the
world.
Doctor MARYLAND will render service
very probably in one of the hospitals
behind the firing lines in France. She
has won the commentator of many
physicians in Great Britain, and when
she offered her services to the army,
she was accepted after some delibera-
ton as to whether woman doctor
could serve In the army ranks.
There is little question, but that
Doctor MARYLAND will prove that wom-
en- doctors in the field can be of con-
siderable service, and soon many more
of her sex will be seen In the ranks.

CALL BRITISH TARS "LlMEYS"
American Bluejackets In European

name of their own for Engand's sail

The sailor from the United States
has his nickname for nearly every
thing he sees. Bluejackets who had
served in the near and far East first
started calling British sailors and SOL
