Although an American by birth and
tradition, DR.. Lenker is deeply inter-

it is due mainly to his efforts that they
were included in the curriculum of the
high schools of the northwest.
Discussing the present language agi-

said today that he thought much of
the propaganda against foreign a n
guages unsound, and predicted that in
time to come the Scandinavian
tongues will take the place formerly
held by German.

Grand Forks police were kept fairly
busy Wednesday night maintaining
order among the large crowds here
for the North Dakota state fair.

five arrests were made, two drunks,
two auto speeders and one vagrant.
The drunks and speeders were re-
leased today or payment Of the usual
fines. and the vag, who vas regarded
as a generally undesirable citizen, was
advised to find the shortest way out
of the city, which he did.
During the fair the police have
been on the job steadily, keeping an
eye Out for undesirables. During the
last two days some IS or 20 Of this
class have been advised to seek some
other climate than that of Grand
Forks, and have complied with the
advice.
BY this means the number Of ar.
rests. has been greatly reduced.
