TWENTY-FIVE WEDDING
ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATED

Mr.. and Mrs. Morten Morten-
sen celebrated their silver we'd
ding anniversary Tuesday at
their farm home, southeast of
Askov, amid their family of
eight children and large num-
Der of friends. The weather be-
ing ideal folks gathered under
the shade trees surrounding the
home and a real pleasant after
noon was spent with singing and
music, a song having been writ
ten and printed locally especially
for the occasion. Refreshments
were also served out in the
open.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mortensen were
married in their native country
July 20, 1899,
remaining there Is years when
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1924-07-31

they emigrated to America, sett-
ling first in Nebraska. They re-
NAMED there but few months
coming to Askov in the fall of
1912 and have since resided
here. The first winter was spent
on a farm south of town. Mr..
Mortensen then engaged in the
shoe repair BUSINESS in the village
at which occupation he was en-
gagged about FIVE years. Since
then the family has resided on
their farm / mile east and ! mile
south of town.
The six oldest children were
born in Denmark while the two
youngest-Holger and Bernhard
were born at Askov.
Mrs. Mortensen's health has
not been very good at any time
during their IL years residence
here but she bears up wonder
fully well under the strain and
always maintains cheerful and
happy disposition. She has been
in bed constantly during the past
two years and it is possible that
the many visitors on the silver
wedding day was a big strain but
that she as well as husband and
children were made happy and it
affords kind remembrances is a
certainty.
They were also remembered
by their friends with gifts.
Congratulations and best
wishes for the future are ex-
tended.

being a fluent and able speaker.
Four songs were sung by the
audience.
Rev. Meller spoke on the human
life, home life and childhood,
bringing out many good and
valuable points. He pointed out
that later in life a person dis
covers and sees more clearly the
great differences in the material
and spiritual sides of life. In
the material, people form COM
panies of which the individual
is a shareholder, simply in money
and not a part of his individual
ism. In the spiritual the indi-
vidual is not a mere shareholder
but he partakes in society-a part
of it in body and soul.
Rev. Msller dwelt some upon
the public school of today-the
system of which he does not ap-
prove and finds absurd. He COM
planned of the utter neglect and
disregard of the spiritual teach
ing and also voiced his objection
to the report card, a thing which
many find is builder between
school and home.
There are thousands of able
teachers doing good work in the
public schools of today and it
seems that locally We are espe-
cially well fitted out in that
respect. If the school should be
radically changed it would be
well to know where to begin and
what to do.
