gallons in the cubic foot, a figure

He appeared suddenly in Den

nowhere, it seemed. and travel
ling about organizing revivalist
meetings. From among his con-
verts he chose a number of men
who prepared an old fishing boat
for sea. He timed his departure
to take place a few hours before
1.-The end of the world was to take
place. The party of glum-faced
men pushed off from shore at a
point on the coast of Jutland -
and since then the prophet and
his disciples have been seen no
more.
This all happened under the
noses of the Nazis. OF course,
most people thought Mikkelsen
and his sect were a horde of fana-
ties who were not to be taken
seriously.
But the story went around later
that Mikkelsen was really an agent
in the secret service whose OBJ
ject was not SO much to convince
people that the day of doom was
coming as to carry out careful es-
pionage in various parts of the
country, watch was then being
ruled by the Germans with an iron
hand. And having collected the
information he needed, he and his
helpers went to sea in their old
ramshackle boat to be picked up
by a British submarine.

Fall
In Norway Is
Now Tagging

With wood-processing industries
turning out products responsible
for nearly one-fourth of Norway's
export income, planners are anx-
iously regarding a tagging timber
fall.
According to present estimates,
there are only some 10000 men
in the woods thus far, against be-
tween $4,000 and 10000 at this
time last year. Though fourth
quarter statistics are not yet avail
able, the 1948-49 fall was well over
100000 cubic meters by mid-No-
vember = considerably above es-
timated figures for this year.
Authorities hold shortage
of labor responsible for the slow
start this year Also relevant is
the late date at which the win
ter's timber prices were finally set.
Many producers are said to have
gone easy pending the outcome of
price negotiations which were con-
cluded only a few weeks ago.

Whether the tail end of this
story is definitely true or not, no.
body knows for sure. And of
course secret agents are not mere
ly reluctant to talk of their ex-
periences after a war: they are
usually forbidden to do SO.
One thing is certain. This dis
guise that Mikkelsen adopted
would give a spy the best chance
of exploring the German defence
areas. But whatever is the eXpla-
nation for the sudden arrival and
dramatic disappearance of Mix
kelsen, the story that has grown
like a legend around him is a
good one.
Hollywood soon heard about It.
And now an American film COM
pany has begun a film about Mix
kelsen, with Eugene Palette play
ing the part of the prophet. Doug
las Fairbanks Jr., will play the
part of one of the disciples Parts
of the film will be shot in Jutland
in the very same surroundings that
Mikkelsen held his demonstrating
revivalist meetings. So far the
real Mikkelsen has not come for
ward to offer his technical adj
vice - or to tell the last chapter
of a fascinating adventure.

Norway Observes
Anniversary Of
School Gardens

"Most readily do children forget
that which they have heard; less
readily that which they have seen;
but never do they forget that
which they have accomplished"
1t was on these words of ROus-
seau that group of Oslo teach
ers based the capitals school gar
den program which this year cele-
brates its 4Oth anniversary.
Described by educators as the
ideal free-time occupation for
gradeschool youngsters, the school
garden program has secured the
voluntary participation of some
5000 children each year for the
past decade. Plots totalling over
so acres have been secured on the
outskirts Of the community for
these after-hour projects. Chill
dren from the four upper classes
of 81 of the city's schools partici-
pate in the program which lasts
from April to October.
This time of the year, visitors
to Oslo are asking for answers
when they see groups of rosy
checked youngsters boarding
street cars with armloads of cab
bage squash, and similar produce.
These are items which they them
selves have grown and which last
year were valued at over S54. 900.
Each child keeps what he raises.
Under the program. the thrill of
watching things grow is being
brought to increasing numbers of
city children.

launched there early this month

10Th Anniversary

L n e SEVENTEEN Anniversary
Festivities of the First Emmanuel
Lutheran Church, Portland, Ore,
came to climax on Wednesday
evening, December 18th, with the
presentation of the historical pag-
cant Faith of Our Fathers" in the
Trinity Episcopal Parish Hall Aud
itorium. Preparation for this pag-
cant had been extensive and its
production was greeted by large
gathering of appreciative people.
The pageant consisted of twelve
scenes with Prologue and AL
bum of Pastors and an Epilogue
as follows: "a Dedication" Pc
ter Carlson's COMMISSIONING"
1.-The Wheat" 1.-The Tares;;" I'm
manuers Organization Night"
Confirmation 1884," Columbia
Conference" Death Strikes"
1.-TWO World Vars Vacation BIZ
BILE School,; THE Album of Pas
tors;' Gods Promise;;" Book of
Remembrance.
Mrs. Florence Read was in
charge of the production which
was prepared by Mrs. Judith Carl
son. Miss Ruth Hanson of the
Portland Public Schools served as
the director and Mrs. Henrietta
Johnson as the adviser Olga Sto-
lee was in charge of the music and
Mr.. and Mrs. Richard Cronn were
the stage managers. Mr.. Kenneth
Erickson, Mrs. Judith Carlson and
Mr.. Albert Anderson served as the
narrators. Mrs. Sodergren enter
tanned the cast of 100 in the par
sonage following the presentation.
The history of First Emmanuel is
significant because it is the first
of our Augustana Churches on the
West Coast and became the CEN
ter of missionary activity in which
many of the churches on the West
Coast were organized, and First
Emmanuel was the scene of the di-
vision of the Pacific Conference
into the Columbia and California
Conferences. The leadership for
the organization of Emanuel Hos
pital was also provided by one of
its pastors, Rev. Carl J. Renhard.
Other anniversary events have
included a Lecture Series in Feb
ruary presented by DR.. Conrad
Bergendoff, president of Augusta
ma College, Rock Island, Illinois;
a Bible Study Series conducted in
June by the Rev. Carl S. Odell,
former pastor, and now of the
faculty of the Lutheran Bible In
stitute in Minneapolis; and an An
niversary Smorgasbord in October;
and now the Anniversary Pageant
on Founders Day, the day of the
organization of the congregation
seventy years ago.
The Anniversary festivities have
been of value to the local church
and provided renewed apprecia-
ton for the labors and sacrifices
of the pioneer pastors and people.
A look forward has been emphasize
ed also by the conducting of a
Building Fund Appeal for the flu
ture development of the oldest
congregation in the Columbia Con-
ference.
The pastors who have served this
church are the following: Peter
Carlson, 1s79-1ssO. 1ss2-1ss3; Jo-
mas Vender, 1ss0-1sS1; John w.
Skans. 18S3-19O4: C. J. Renhard,
1904-1910; J. Richard Olson. 1911
1916; A. V. Anderson, 1917-1927;
H. p. Johnson, 1927-1932; Carl S.
Odell, 1932-194O: and the present
pastor, Carl w. Sodergren.
