C. B. Ylvisakcr •poke on the nature of faith. The Rev. W. F. Schmidt's talk Thurs-day, was centered on Isaiah 3:26. "Thou wilt keep Him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee; because He trusteth in thee." The Armistice day speaker was the Rev. J. A. Fjelstad, Lisbon, N. D. "Ar-mistice is not a glorification of war but a thankfulness of peace," stated the Rev. Fjelstad. He went on to soy that we have lived through a period of eighteen years without a conflict, but that we are still paying for the cost of the last war. "The American Legion has a three-fold program to support the necessity of peace. This program embraces an adequate national defense, favors strict neutrality, and proposes to take the profit out of war. "Although we do not want another war, nonsupport of the people at such a time would be treason. We can give our lives, yet still retain those lives by worthy deeds."

Sheaff er Pens and Pencils Jerzy Bojanowski, guest conductor of tho Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra, in a special interview on Tuesday morning, commented on development In European and American music. "t do say that the number of the public interested in music in America is impressively large, and rapidly grow-ing through schools and due to the fact that schools include music and music appreciation in their curriculum; while in Europe they just recently in-troduced music into their schools," was his opening remark. "The most valuable and strong ele-ment of music," he continued, "is £he t'olk element; therefore, the real ele-ment of American music is handicap-ped. The type of farmer in America is not the peasant type. The folk music is peasant music which comes to life. "The beginning of strong develop-ment of Polish music started rather late in the beginning of the 19th century. This development came with the name of Moniuszko, who was really the first who brought folk music into artistic music. "There is no one in particular to whom I am especially indebted. My mother was leading me, and she didn't try to make of me a technical musi-cian. I was always interested in con-ducting. When I was in high school I organized a high school choir." He said that the first time he came to America was in 1933 when he came to the Century of Progress at Chicago. At this time he was conducting at the Warsaw Opera. "I never enjeyed anything more," he replied in response to the question of how he liked directing the Minneapolis Symphony orchestra. In commenting on the rochestra he stated that* the members show as keen an interest when playing for children's afternoon performances as for an eve-ning concert, Windows Go Down As Homecoming1 Evidences Fade The last of the society window decorations were taken down Tues-day, removing the last evidences of the forty-fifth homecoming cele-bration.

The window which was done in contrasts of black, white, and gold, was a copy of a plaque depicting chivalry. In commenting on the windows Peggy Brotcn, Lambda Delta Sigma president, said: The Lambda Dclts are surely happy to receive the trophy and we hope our window symbolizes our aim to keep the Sigma spirit at the top."

Aasen's great work, "dic-tionary of the Norwegian Dialects" ap-peared in 1850 and from this dates all the wide cultivation of the popular Norwegian language. What Aascn really did was to con-struct out of different materials a po-pular language or definite "folke-maal" for Norway. This artificial language has been adopted by all those who write in Norwegian dialect. Later en-thusiasts of this language have attemt-ed to make Norway accept it as her offical language in place of Dano-Nor-wegian but the movement has not met with much success. Ivar Aascn holds an isolated place in literary history as being one man who invented or at least developed and founded a language which has pleased so many thousands of his countrymen who have accepted it for their schools, churches and songs.
