CLEGGS FETED AT
NORTH STAR HALL
HOnOred by Friends on Twenty.fifth
Wedding Anniversary Saturday;
Came Here I'm 1907.

A group of friends that packed the
North Star Farmers club hall gath
cred there Saturday night to honor
Mr.. and Mrs. j. E. Clegg who on that
day celebrated the silver anniversary
of their wedding. The Cleggs had
had family dinner at home, at
which time all the children were
present, but went to the club hall in
the evening where party had been
arranged by friends in the community.
The table where the honored couple
was seated was nicely decorated with
white streamers extending from a
large silver bell. The beautiful we'd
ding cake was also decorated in white
and silver. Dancing, cards and a
social time was enjoyed following
the dinner.
Mr. and Mrs. Clegg were married
at Valley Junction, Iowa, on March
8, 1905 and two years later came to
the community where they now reside
on their 12O-acre farm, miles north
and miles west of Askov. They
have spent all this time in the COM
munity except years, during which
period they lived in their former
home.
They were made doubly happy on
their wedding day by the presence
of all their seven children, Hazel,
Dolores, George. John, Raymond, Ell
dora, and Erma, all of whom are at
home except Eldora who works in St.
Paul, and Erma who is employed at
the Hansen Cafe in Askov.
Mr.. and Mrs. Clegg received several
presents as a token of the esteem
in which they are held in the COM
munity and many best wishes are ex-
tended to them for many more SIM
ilarly happy occasions.

Aggressive AskOU Man
is NOU at 18th Birthddy
Niels Henriksen Came to Pine
County IN 1907; HeaUed Home
Ont of Wilderness.

Few people are as strong and
healthy, so erect, after having lived
just three-quarters of century as is
Niels Henriksen of Askov. He still
drives his own car and less than two
years ago he drove all alone to South
Dakota, distance of about 400 miles,
to visit a daughter. Each summer
he makes one or more trips to West
Denmark, Wis, nearly 100 miles from
Askov, to visit relatives and friends.
Mr.. Henriksen will celebrate his
Is birthday tomorrow friday amid
relatives and friends. He was born
on March IA. 1855, at Skjoldborg, in
Upland, Denmark. Always aggressive
and a hard worker, this no doubt is
due to the fact that Mr.. Henriksen
had a very early start in being useful.
At the tender age of five or six he was
already out working for others at
herding geese. He grew to manhood
in his native country and was mar
ried there. In 1886 the family emf
grated to America, settling in Kings
July SouhIy, D.s thCs tooh
up farming. The Henriksens have
had ten children, seven of whom are
living. One child, boy, died in Den
mark in infancy, another boy died in
infancy in South Dakota, and a girl,
IL years old. also passed away in
South Dakota Mr.. Henriksen, as
we'll as his children, also encountered
the great sorrow of losing a good wife
and mother, when she was in her best
years, back in 1899 OF the seven
living children Mr.. Henriksen has the
comfort and companionship of six of
these right in the Askov community,
folks who are all workers and builders
here. They are: Mrs. NJ. B. Miller,
Andrew, Henrik, Mrs. w. E. Jacobsen.
Chris, and Mrs. Axel Birkholm. The
youngest of the children. Mrs. Lenny
LewisOn, lives at Lake Preston, S. ID.
The Henriksen family came to
Askov in the spring of 1907, being
amongst the early settlers here when
this was made a Danish colony. Mr..
Henriksen purchased 80 acres of
land, ~ miles east of town, erected
buildings and turned what was then
a wilderness, into a good farm. The
place is now occupied by his son-in-
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1930-03-13

law and daughter, Mr.. and Mrs. Wayne
e. Jacobsen. Since then all of his
children have married and acquired
other farms in the community. One
son, Andrew, is the owner and man
ager of the feed store and potato and
rutabaga warehouse under the name
of A. Henriksen, a we'll managed and
successful business.
In 1928 Mr.. Henriksen built three
room house on a small acreage on his
town, where he lives very comfort
ably and close to his children and
grandchildren. Always neat and or
derby his place looks the part-spick
and span-and he maintains a flock
of about 200 White Leghorn chickens
which helps to keep him busy and in
terested. The house is also sur
rounded by pretty trees.
Besides the big task of clearing up
his own farm Mr. Henriksen also
found time to help with community
projects, being at one time an officer
i'm the farmers cooperative feed store,
a member of the town board and also
served on the church board. as we'll
as other community affairs. He has
always been very active and is still
able to do a good days work. Mr..
Henriksen is fond of reading and
takes very active interest in the work
of the church, and unless illness pre-
vents is present at every Sunday
morning service of the Lutheran
church of which he has been life
long member.
A man of stability and one who has

decided that that was the time for the
Czech people to assert themselves, to
establish their independence through
the destruction of Hungarian
despotism. In the winter of 1914, he
went to Italy, later to Russia, Japan,
and the United States, working all
the while with propaganda to unity
the Czechs. His most Jealous aid was
furnished by Edward Benes, one OF
the foremost statesmen of all time.
Benes worked primarily from Switzer-
land. In his Memoirs" Benes very
carefully, but too modestly, portrays
not only the actions of the patriots
during the final upheaval, but shows
the methodical work done by them
during the last fifty years--the care
full molding of action and thought,
social, ethical-even religious, and
the final flare which gave freedom.
That that freedom did not even tenn
porarily disrupt Czech national sta
education of the masses by leaders
of the type of Masaryk, Benes, and
the numerous ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS,
Ziska, Hus, and the many others.
The people knew for what they were
fighting, and they had been SO taught
to expect that for which they had
fought, that they were able to begin
their government with zest that
withstood revolution. They had Ia
bored together for an ideal, and they
would now live together to enjoy the
fruits of that ideal.
The torch of progress which led
the Czechs to ultimate freedom had
never been permitted to go out. From
the time of that dark period which
began in 1920. politically the people
had few rights, and very little polit-
zeal development was possible. Gull
turally, the people progressed in spite
of obstacles. Since the University of
Prague was one of the earliest uni
versities ever established, it would
be surprising indeed that the people
having that symbol before them,
would permit themselves to degen-
crate culturalg.
Masaryk is now publically and ma
tiOnally recognized to be the leader
that he ever was, without recOgni-
ton of any kind. AS soon as the
national democratic government oil
Czecho-Slovakia was fact. he was
elected president and has had that
position ever since and, undoubtedly
will have that position as long as he
will be physically able to handle it.
Beloved statesman and leader that he
is. he is justly entitled to the re-
ward. No other man is more worthy
of the position.
Judge him by American standards
There is man of lowly birth, who
like Lincoln. fought his way to learn
ing and advancement. With the cour-
| age of Washington, he labOred pa
tiently and struck at the proper time
for the fulfillment Of his ideals. Ideal
istic he is, like Woodrow Wilson. bu,
more practical in his ideals, and more
fortunate in that he has been able tC
see many of his ideals come to life.
At the age of eighty he is still hale

Mother, Father and 10 Children
 Rescued From Burning Block

New York, Nov. Il CP) - Mir. and Mrs. James Didino and the ten little Didinos, ranging in age from two months to Is years, were passed 10 safety in the arms of the law early today after a small fire filled their cast side flat with dense smoke.
 Summoned by the family's cries, three patrolmen were driven back by fumes from the stairway leading to the third story home. Then they stationed themselves at intervals on the fire escape and handed the shiv- ering children, some of them un- clothed, to the street.
 With his brood gathered about him, Didino set up hue and cry by announcing that one of the children was missing. A thorough recount, however, revealed all present. The fire started in a rag shop on the ground floor and was easily extin- guished.
