CONGREGATION BOWS
IN THANKFULLNESS
Good Harvest Sermon Given by the
Rev. A. E Frost Sunday; Sacred
Concert in Evening.

The religious harvest festival at the
Danish Lutheran church in Askov
Sunday was enjoyed by many. the
church being well filled for the serv-
ices in the morning, and again when
the religious concert was given in the
evening.
The Rev. A. E. Frost, local pastor.
gave a harvest festival sermon of the
true type-a thanksgiving to the Gre
ator. The pastor said that there is
plenty of food and everything required
for the sustenance of man, animals,
fish, and birds-plenty for all-if used
right and properly distributed. There
should be no starvation as it exists
in some quarters. Prayer must be
consistent in that We must do our
own part as well as we can. There
is some selfishness in all of us and
that is what we should work away
from and learn to possess the true
thankful spirit The church building
looked very pretty and inviting in the
fall colors which the committee in
charge had so neatly arranged for.
Norman Alfred Petersen, the little
baby boy of Superintendent and Mrs.
Harald A. Petersen was baptised at
the morning services.
The concert in the evening opened
with song by all after which Miss
Verla Hansen, the church organist,
rendered two numbers which were fol-
lowed with three songs by a mixed
chorous of "a young people. One of
the songs contained tenor solo strain
which was ably rendered by the Rev,
Frost He also directed the singing,
and Mrs. A. Henriksen accompanied
on the organ. Next on the program
were three violin solos by Hjalmar
Petersen with organ accompaniment
| by Mrs. Henriksen, after which the
| GLORIOUS sang four more numbers in
Guiding another tenor solo. I'm Heaven
Above, by the Rev. Frost The pro-
gram ended with another organ selec-
ton by Miss Hansen and the sing
ing of a song by the entire assem-
blage.
Following this all repaired to the
church basement where coffee and
lunch was enjoyed at neatly decorated
tables. A number of songs were sung
by the entire audience and the Rev.
Frost spoke in appreciation of the
willingness and eagernes with which
the young singers had prepared for
this concert, how they had rehearsed
for several months and that the week
ly rehearsals would be kept up in pre-
paratiOn for future concerts. He also
expressed appreciation of the untir-
ing work Of Mrs. Henriksen in giving
good assistance on the piano or organ
and he thanked others for their part
in the program as we'll as the COM
mittee who had served so we'll and
arranged for this happy event His
parting words were: "As we SOW, so
shall we reap"

The United States is more con-
siderate than Turkey in the taking
of a national census. In Turkey,
on Oct. %, 1927, virtually the entire
population was required to stay in
doors for the day. Only officials and
enumerators were permitted to go
out on the streets, no trains or
street cars were run and guards
were on patrol to arrest anyone
found at large. In Constantinople
it was not until 1918 p. m. that the
firing of guns signalled completion
of the census and permitted release
from homes.
Here it is done more humanity.
The government merely assumes
that sometime during a month you
or a member of your family will be
found by an enumerator.
