! The Germans tried every possible
ruse, as we'll as force, to take the
village. The growing crops on the
fertile lands in the vicinity were a
source Of considerable trouble to the
defenders. as the Germans could
creep through them until they
reached the edge of the village. The
enemy also covered their helmets
with clumps Of grasssand weeds and
crawled slowly forward. They could
not. however, shake the determine

The spirit of the offensive was so
high among the allied troops that
they continued their advance on the

had undergone since the beginning of
the week. Another batch of>several

to principle and yet profoundly
diplomatic in his policies and deal
ings. He is a thorough business
man, yet never forgetting the need
Of Christianity at, the basis and
never seeking personal profit. 1t is
sincerely believed that he will rally
around st. Olaf college an excellent
corps Of teachers, a growing band
Of enthusiastic students a loyal,
working graduate body, and the uni
ted support Of the whole church.
The election of DIR. C. o. Solberg
to the presidency of the English dis
trict of the Norwegian Lutheran
church is also an event of more than
passing significance Some had
predicted that the Rev. Lars Har-
risville of Chicago would also be
nominated, but as Pastor Harrisville
was himself on the nominal ting COM
mittee his being nominated was
out Of the question. Professor Sol
berg was therefore proposed and
duly elected. This means that the
English work in this synod will be
pushed as never before, as perhaps
never dreamed Of by the most Wis
1onary enthusiast. Professor SOL
berg is peculiarly fitted for the Of
fee OF agitating for more English,
being absolutely convinced that 1t is
necessary and being by inclination
and training a platform orator
G. o. Solberg is a grandson Of the
first Norwegian settler in Wisconsin,
his grandfather having settled in
Rock county in 1888. c. o. SoIberg
attended Beloit college. from which
he received the degrees of A. B. and
A. M Thereupon he attended Chi
cago Lutheran Theological seminary,
from which he received the degrees
Of B. D. and D. D. He has served
as pastor OF English churches at

He was professor Of English at

at ST. Olaf from 1915 to date. He
is the author Of some books, the
most notable OF which Is his quad

Red Wing President Nam
ed-Important Assign
ments Announced

The board of education and board
of trustees Of the Norwegian Luth-
Gran Church Of America were auth
orized Wednesday afternoon to con-
solidate the Lutheran seminaries at
Hamline and St. Anthony park, in
line with the recommendations made
to the convention by the board Of
education.
This action will eventually con-
centrate all seminary work at st.
Anthony park. and the board Of
trustees is authorized to dispose Of
the property owned at Hamline.
For the past year the church has
been operating both institutions,
with the Junior and senior classes at
st. Anthony, and the lower classes
at Hamline. This arrangement has
not been satisfactory.
An important step toward the
revolution of the language issue in
the church was taken wh9n tho con-
vention instructed the board in
charge of the seminary not to &C
cept as a student any man who can
not use the English language. The
convention took the position that
there will be no worth for such men
in the future.
New Name Proposed.
The future name of the confer
eFlce probably will be 1.-The United
Lutheran Synod" which name was
recommended by the committee APP
pointed last week. and which was
unanimously approved when present
ed to the convention. Final action
will take place at the 1920 COnven-
ton, as a change in the church con-
stttution is required. Two other
names, THE Evangelical Lutheran
Synod" and american Lutheran
Synod" were suggested. but the COM
nnittee's recommendation was finally
accepted unanimously.
Gymnasium at St. Olaf.
The erection Of a gymnasium at
st. OIafs college at Mortified,
trustees being authorized to proceed
with the work and make collections
of the required fund.
A resolution was adopted calling
on all members Of the church to give
the fullest possible support to the
American Red Cross work, the work
to be carried on within the church
organizations.
The recommendation that the Of
flee Of secretary Of Sunday schools
be established in each district was
accepted.
Homo Mission Work.
The committee on Home Missions,
in a report submitted at the after
noon session, disclosed the fact that
there are a million and half I'M
churched people of Norwegian de-
scent in the United States, among
whom work will be conducted dur
ing the coming year. More work
among the deaf, dumb and blind, and
among immigrants, was urged by the
committee.
A church evangelist was also au-
thorized, to be appointed within the
church body.
The committee to arrange for the
next convention consists Of Presi-
dent H. g. Stub, DR.. J. N. Kildahl
and Secretary N. J. Lohre.
Prof. C. M. Weswig, Of st. Paul,
was elected a member Of the board

were heard such strong men as the
following proposed: Prof. J. A. Aas-
gard, Moorhead, Mimi; DR.. Martin
Hegland, Forest City, Ia; DR.. J. C.
K. Preus, Byron, Mimi; Rev. Henry
Rasmussen, Canton, s. D.; Prof. A.
o. Tingelstad, Decorah, Ia, and Rev
J. A. o. Stub, New York city. Yet
everybody in mentioning his favorite
candidate would also in the same
breath suggest that Rev. L. W, Boo
would be the best man if he could
only be spared by the board Of
trustees in whose employ he has
been serving as secretary. The
board of education nominated Prof.
Boo and the convention now in ses-
sion at the auditorium elected him
without g. dissenting word. or vote.
Prof. L. w. Boo is only AZ years Of
age. His father, N. E. Boo, was a
pastor in the Norwegian Lutheran
church. N. e. Boo was also a man
Of great influence in the former
conference and united church. He
retired from active service about
two years ago and lives now at ST.
Paul. L. w. Boz was trained at ST.
Olaf college and the United Church
seminary. In 1901 he become pastor
at Jericho. Ia In 1904 ne became
president Of Waldorf college, serving
IL years. During this period he built
this school up from nothing to
one Of the most substantial
academies in the church, with build
ings valued at 100000, a faculty Of
20 members and an attendance of
over 800. During these years he
served also as pastor, financial and
field secretary for his school, be-
sides filing with distinction a few
terms as member OF the Iowa legts-
lature and senator. In 1915 he en-
tered the employ Of the board of
trustees OF the United Church and at
once distinguished himself by his
wisdom, tact and executive ability.
He has the gift of getting order out
Of chaos and getting his associates
to do their best. He Is very loyal

their subscriptions, but that others
have come to his support with the
result that to date the tables are

The boycott against The Times

result of the fact that the editor

Leagued Men Framed Platform.

ut might also be interesting to
know that long before the Minot
convention number of members
Of the Nonpartisa1l league met in
conference in different parts Of
North Dakota discussing what would
be wisest to do in the coming cleo
ton in face of the present develop
ments as to Townleys career and
the handling of our state affairs by
his men. In one conference held in
Valley City in April, 81 countieS
were represented and only farmers
with one exception, were present.
APractically all of them had been
members of the Nonpartisan league
and IL of the % had paid their SIG
again this year. 1t was in this ex-
elusive farmers meeting that the
backbone of the Minot platform was
drafted and agreed upon And it can
not therefore be Justly charged that
the Minot platform was drafted by
any agents in the interests OF big
business.
II do not believe that the people of
North Dakota who have responded
so literally to every call of the fed
eral government for support or the
various war activities and who have

Attack Broken Up.

Paris, June IS. THE attack south
west OF scissors on the front be-
tween the Aisne and the Marine, has
been broken by the violent resistance
of the French, says a Hayas cores
pondent, telegraphing from the front.
The enemy, he says, has made prog
ress which is absolutely insignificant
at price Of heavy losses. In addi-
ton he points out, the German adj
vance has been held up for several
days and the morale Of the German
troops is suffering in consequence.
There was plenty of fighting yes
terday but it did not affect the gem
eraI situation. AS the Germans are
fighting against time this result is
a distinct gain to the defense.
The Germans, it is true, made
slight progress on their left toward
Compeigne, from which, at MeItcocq,
they are now only i've miles away,
hut so did the French on the other
wing in the region of Merry.
AS the nature of the ground
around. Merry provides the French
with excellent gun positions behind
hills from which they can pound at
