The young actors here will offer a closely knit piece sparkling with wit and replete with funny situations.

 Bird Sounds Produced
 In The Unholy Three" recording ingenuity was required in filming the bird shop scenes.
 This was because of the various pitches of the birds voices made unexpected demands on the sensi- tive microphones.
 When trial tests were made of parrots, canaries and robins, some surprising facts were discovered For instance, it turned out that the voice of a canary was harder to record that that of either parrot or the noise of a gunshot, and the chirping of a robin broke light valves more easily than the shout inc nf q n1oh of extraS
 According to experts, the note of a canary is so high that recording it is more difficult than any sound so far encountered.

 Cheer Up and Smile deals with the cften scrambled romance oi Arthur Lake and Dixie Lee as col lege boy and coed in Jones Col legep Lake quarrels with Dixie and is suspended from school for kick ing the botany professor as part of his initiation into a fraternity.
 He goes to New York where his friend, Whispering" Jack Smith gets hie, job as drummer in the crchesl-a of Charles Judels' night club.

JUNIORS PLAY BALL

Askov and Hinckley youngsters,
members of the American Legion Jun
ior Baseball league, battled on the
Askov diamond Sunday, with the re-
suit that Hinckley won by score of
ID to 1. The Askov boys had not yet
gotten their suits by Sunday while
the Hinckley boys were all logged up
like professional baseball players and
it is thought by some of the fans that
the sight of the fine new Hinckley
uniforms may have intimidated the
Askov boys. Other teams in the
north end of the Tenth congressional
district are those at Mora, Onamia,
and Milaca.
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1931-06-11

in spirit, and also an article on the
days that have passed by A. Gravesen,
Askov's banker and community build
er for the past 20 years. Another
man who was ill in bed during the
celebration, who had labored to beau
tify the park, and one who would have
enjoyed those days as much as any
one, was Charlie Laursen, president
of the local branch of the Danish Folk
Society. He has been a faithful
worker for all that is good in the
community during the 25 years, rem
dering most unselfish service.
Among the many visitors was 80
year old man, Johan Jensen, from
Racine, Wis, who resided here for a
few years previous to 1917. He is
still in good health and made the trip
to Askov in auto together with rela-
tives.
And thus is concluded a quarter
century of pioneering in what was
known as the cut-over country of
northern Minnesota-now a fertile
dairy farming community. Let the
good work go on where the sturdy
pioneers left off!

in Askov and was also superintendent
of the local school, being among those
who did the pioneering here.
From the Early Days.
Mr.. Holm spent two years in Askov,
1906 and 1907, being the first mer-
chant here. He was followed by Mr..
Miller. In his talk Sunday he dwelt
upon "reminiscences, stating with a
smile that he was at one time the
leading merchant of Askov and adding
that he was the only one at the time.
He talked of the work of L. G. Peder-
sen and Kr. Duus, the original land
agents here for the Danish Folk So
ciety, and said there was one woman
who was always outstanding in his
estimation as the mother of the colo
ny, and that was Mrs. L. Mosbaek.
For his many years of service he. con-
sidered the late Mr.. Petersen the
father of the community. Mr.. Holm
also told of many amusing incidents
from the early days when he was post
master, notary public, and member of
the school board, besides being mer7
chant.
Final Program.
At the closing meeting in the hall
Sunday evening the Rev. Strandskov
dwelt upon the painting, 'The Man
With the Hoe" by the French artist,
Millet. The central object of the
picture is human life, said the speaker.
He connected this picture with the
visit of an American woman in Den
mark for a year after which she wrote
a book where she brought out the
happiness in work, using the title of
a song, II Sing Behind My Plow."
The pastor also spoke of the visit of
Edward Steiner and others with Leo
Tolstoy, Russia's greatest poet and
writer. Following that visit Steiner
said: Neither life nor death was
the same to me afterwards"
The Rev. Strandskov said that he
was glad to have been at this three
day celebration in Askov, he had en-
joyed it throughout, but the greatest
to him was his two visits to the farm
home here of the Rev. Frede Stot-
trup who has been a bedridden man

CHARACTER
Edgar A GnpSfl

Build it we'll and build it straight,
Strong enough to buffet fate,
Staunch enough to bear the blow
Life compels us all to know;
Have it rugged, have it clean,
Nowhere false and nowhere mean,
Whatsoever be your post,
Make your character your boast.

for several years. The hope, faith
and courage possessed by that man is
a great inspiration, said the speaker
History in Pictures,
The orchestra and chorus enter
tanned again after which slides were
thrown on the screen, showing the de-
velopment of the community in the
25 years. This was an interesting
feature depicting the days of the saw
mill, some timber, winding trails for
roads, temporary or quickly con-
structed buildings, the oxen, and then
on up to the present with good build
ings and roads, church, school, cream
cry, the Ferndale Nursery, modern
potato warehouses, and other business
buildings, well improved farms, auto
mobiles, etc. Martin Sorensen, Har-
aid Petersen, and j. r. Petersen had
arranged this part of the program.
AS final treat Sigurd Jorgensen
played two violin solos, 'Reverie," by
Henri Vieuxtemps, and "Rondino," by
Fritz Kreisler, the piano accompani-
ment being played by Mrs. Axel An
dersen. They responded to an encore
with Hartmann's Cradle Song" The
applause was again so spontaneous
that a fourth number, "Flyv, Fugl,
Flyv," ("Soaring Bird'') was played,
this time with muted violin. The
beautiful tones captured the audience.
The Rev. Frost thanked all those
who had taken part in the various
programs, and the many who had
helped with the work in one way or
another. He expressed appreciation
of the visitors coming here from dis
tant places, and the hope that the
three days of companionship would be
fruitful. Coffee was enjoyed in the
dining room of the hall while the
younger folks played ring games fol-
an hour or more.

MOUNTAINS MAY COST
 JUNEAU BALLOON WORK

Juneau's generally perpendicular horizon, while one of it's major scenic features, may cost that community a balloon observation station designed as an aid to aer- ial navigation, it was revealed by N. c. Banfield, balloon observer, U. s. Weather Bureau, reports the Empire.
 He arrived in Juneau recently to establish a station but the noun tains that enclose the town except for the ribbon of GaStineau Chan nel winding past the community's threshold, may defeat the project.
 The Bureau requires not more than a six degree horizon for the balloon observa tion stations. Twenty five percent of Juneau's horizon comes under the specified tions but the other 75 per cent rears up on end in such fashion as to alarm the balloon observation ist
 MT. Banfield is making some studies of weather data with R. c. Mize, meteorologist in charge and a general investigation of condi- tions to determine whether it is feasible to establish the station. It is possible that it will be necessary to change the program and divert MT. Banfield to some other point where the scenery is tanner anu mountains do not rear their heads so close to the town.
