Hans Andrew Stub was born of
the parents, Prof. DR.. H. G. Stub
and wife. Didrikke Aal Nee Otte-
sem on May IS, 1879 His birth
place was the old historic parson-
age at Koshkonong, Wisconsin
The young Stub attended grade
school, Parochial and Summer
School, and High School, the Uni
versity of Minnesota, and Luther
College. DEBORAH, Iowa, from which
school he was graduated in 1900
with the degree of A. B. The
same Fall he entered Luther Theo-
logical Seminary, located at St
Paul, Minnesota. and was gradu-
ated in the spring of 1903 as class
president and Valedictorian with
the degree of C. T He received the
honorary degree of Doctor of Div
Unity from Whitworth College,
Spokane, Washington, May %,
1886.
1t was his intention to study fur
Their but the crying need of pas
tors that year caused him to aban-
don his plan and heed the call to
the ministry. He received many
calls but chose the one from the
Emmanuel Lutheran Church of
Seattle, in preference to the larger
established calls in the Middle
West, offering easier working con-
ditions and larger salary, while the
Seattle Congregation, had up to
this time been a missionary call
connected with another congrega-
ton, and the salary offered was
only nominal.
When DR.. Stub entered upon his
work in Seattle in August, 1908,
he found a congregation of IL
souls with three voting members

cation, which was organized in
1890, had dwindled under success

Thirty-two young Iceland wo-

of the program. Allan Pomeroy,
Assistant United States Attorney,
will be the main speaker.
During the month of October,
history classes in the Seattle
schools devote their attention to
the discoveries of America. Each
one is entitled to a chapter of his
own.
In a recent Left Erikson Day
message, our President urged AM
orleans ito visit a nearby library
and re-read the story of the Vik-
ing Explorers voyages across the
Atlantic to the shores of the New
World"
The Story of Leif's Discovery of
America
The spirit of all the Scandina-
Wan peoples during the period of
discovery which Left Erikson Day
recalls, manifested itself in an
eager quest for new lands, daring
seamanship and a faithful record
ing of their movements and dis
coveries in the literary form
known as the Saga. The turbul-
ent North Atlantic Ocean held no
terrors for them they sailed their
open craft wherever they wished,
without the aid of chart or COM
pass.
Finding the reign of Harold the
Fairheaded distasteful, Norwegian
vikings remembered rumors of an
island to the west and set out to
find it. Thus Iceland was discov-
cred about S74 A. d. and then
colonized Erik the Red, who, af-
ter being banished from Norway,
had settled in Iceland, declared he
would seek land farther westward.
He discovered Greenland and set
about to colonize it from Iceland
about $50.
