WASHINGTON LETTER

whose functions are to study weather
conditions will probably be remem-
bered and appreciated long after the
international figures have faded from
the scene. The issuance of weather
forecasts and warnings for the benefit
of commerce, agriculture and naviga-
ton by sea and air has become a
major activity of the government.
Perhaps it is due to the fact that the
weather is part of our daily life that
weather experts attract little atten-
ton. The experiences of last year
have raised the work of these scien-
fists in the public eye, for the weather
man is now a parsonage.
There is a split in the ranks of
professional weather observers. They
cannot agree on the efficiency of
long-distant forecasts which vitality
affect planters and others. The avia-
tor now shares the concern of the
farmer as to weather conditions. To
provide accurate data the government
has extended its services by arrange
ments with ships at sea to report
regularly twice a day, which supple
ments the observations taken at num-
erous land stations. By these means
timely warnings are given of storms
approaching from the sea- One of
the unsolved problems of these scien-
lists is to provide method for pro-
.ducing rainfall when nature falls
short of the job. No radio or press
message is awaited by more interested
folks than weather forecasts, which
are broadcast from the government
station here at fixed intervals. The

few of them can be acted favorably
upon unless an Increase OF roomlng

Adam Dan Dead.
Rev. Adam Dan, SO, died last
week at the home of his daughter,
Mrs. Thyra Knudsen, Clinton, Iowa.
He was born in Odense, Denmark,
was a missionary in Egypt and Jeru-
salem, and came to the United States
in 1871; he served as pastor in Ra-
cine, Wis, Salinas, Cal, Minneapolis,
Cedar Falls, Iowa, Chicago and else
where, and several times was the
editor of the official organ of the
Danish Evangelical Lutheran Church
of America. Mr.. Dan became widely
known as an author, his lyrics long
ago having become a literary treas
ure of his compatriots. Funeral serv-
ice were held in Clinton, and inter-
ment took place in Chicago last Sat-
urday.
Building In Use.
The building of the Norwegian lega-
ton in Washington, D. c., last week
was occupied by Minister H. H. Bach
Ike, his family and his staff. Norway
is the first of the Scandinavian coun-
tries to erect its own legation build
ing in the American capital, other
nations occupying rented quarters.
The building contains the home of the
envoy as we'll as suite of offices

Geological Work.
DR.. F. M. Fryxell, professor of geol-
ogy at the Swedish Augustana College,
Rock Island, ILL.,. has published an
extensive work, Glacial Features OF
jackson Hole, Wyoming" which is
being received with generous applause
by experts in the field of American
geology. DR.. Fryxell who is a native
of Sweden, has spent a number of
years at Jackson Hole studying the
geological peculiarities which are now
described and commented upon in his
book.
SuSpendS Publication.
"Dansk- Canadieren," Danish week
ly published in Winnipeg, Man., has
permanently suspended publication.
Il is the second Danish paper in Can
ada to take this step within recent
weeks. A principal reason for the
hazards which beset Danish news
paper publishing in the Dominion is
the fact that during the last ten
months immigration from Denmark
has come to almost an absolute stand
still since the Canadian authorities
do not desire to solicit immigration
as long as the Canadians themselves
are fighting off the spectre of hard
times.
Miss Phillips i'm Norway.
Miss Lena Madison Phillips, general
secretary of the International Fedora
ton of Business and Women's Profess

ago arrived in Oslo, Norway, where
she is attempting to effect an affilia-
ton between the Norwegian branches
and the world group. Miss Phillips
delivered several lectures about the
American organizations, and her eff
