Peter Thomson went with AXel
Brus to Little Canada last week and
remained there with his parents to
seek employment.
Rev. A. E. Frost and family were
in West Denmark, Wis, from Friday
till Monday to attend the three day
Y. p. S. convention.
Mrs. Owe Fischer of Racine, Wis,
Mrs. Evald Fischer and son, Teddy,
Miss Beatrice Becker and Miss Edith
Sandahl, all from South Milwaukee.
Wis, came Sunday for a visit at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Hans Mikkel-
sen.
Word has just been received from
Mrs. Meta Lillienskiold, st. Paul, stat
ing that the anniversary picnic of the
Danish Old Peoples Home, "Danebo,"
Minneapolis, will be held at the home
on Sunday, Aug. 26, and that they are
expecting a lot of visitors from Askov.
Mr.. and Mrs. Adolf Jensen's twin
daughters evidently follow in one am
others footsteps: Last week Miss
Olga had the misfortune to break her
left forearm, and this week Miss Oda
fell and dislocated her left shoulder
blade; thus both have the left arm
in a sling, which is not so pleasant
these hot days.
Mr.. and Mrs. Carl Miller and Miss
Ellen left Sunday for Hutchinson.
From there they will go to several
other points in the state on vaca-
tion trip. Judging from the tenn
perature reports from the southern
part of the state it is a safe guess
to say that they are now located by
some cool lake up in the northern
part of Minnesota.
Miss Krista Thomson, Askov, and
Miss Magda Hansen of Brush, Colo,
terminated their six weeks course at
Danebod college in Tyler last week
From there they went to West Den

evening for a short visit here.

with friends here. Mr.. Tarnow was
gym instructor at the six weeks sum-
mer course at Danebod college in

now is regularly employed at the
school in Hutchinson where he gives
gym instructions to approximately
$50 pupils.
Miss Olga Petersen and Miss Mag
dalene Abrahamsen who attended the
six weeks course at DanebOd college,
Tyler, returned to their respective
homes here Friday. The Misses Chris
tine JOrgensen and Sigrid Larsen,
who attended the DanebOd course also,
went from there to the Young Peo-
