The concluding services of the con-
vention were held Sunday evening at
the Swedish Lutheran church. Bish-
op Koskimies and Rev. Wargelin
spoke briefly. Other ministers also
spoke.
One of the main matters taken
up at the convention was the proposal
to remove Suomi College from
Hancock, Mich.,t to Duluth. This is
the only higher institution of learning
of the Synod as well as of the Finnish
people in the United States.
A committee was named for this
purpose and to work co-jointly with
friends interested in the matter in
Duluth. How soon this will be
accomplished depends entirely upon
the liberality of the Finnish people
and the generous help and patronage
of the English friends of this cause.
The sum of 100000 was suggested
by some to be collected as building
fund. A. Hawaii of Duluth is on the
committee to secure funds for the
college. A. Markkanen a Finnish
wholesale merchant of Duluth, was
elected to the board of directors of
the college. The other two MEM
bers elected are Mrs. T. Rantalahti
of Ishpeming, Mich, and Carl Tuom-
ella of South Range, Mich.
