Twentieth Annual Session of Young"
People's Leasne of the United
Lutheran Church.
The Twentieth Annual Convention
of the Southern Minnesota and
Nbrthern Iowa Young People's Lea
gue of the United Lutheran church
opened at Austin Tuesday evening
August 18. There were over two
hundred delegates and visitors _frOm
out of town and the church was
crowded for even standing room at
the opening session. Miss Hilda
Thompson rendered an organ pre
lude and Rev. J. A. E. Naess of the
local church gave the address of
welcome. The President Ignatius
Bjorlee responded and called on
others. Mrs. Naess and Mrs. C. A.
Hegge rendered a vocal duet, "Hark,
Hark my Soul." An excellent ad
dress was given by Rev. Edward
Nervig of Albert Lea. A reception
was given in the church parlors by
the young ladies of the church. Mrs,
K. O. Wold had charge of decora
tions and the rooms were pretty
with golden glow and vines. Frappe
was served also ice cream and cake.
At the sessions Wednesday the
attendance reached over 400. The
Northwood choir of thirty-five voices
rendered some excellent music and
the Emmons choir was px*esent at
the afternoon meeting. Prof. Fred
P. Johnson, conductor of the Luth
eran Choral club of Chicago and an
exceptional player of the pipe or
gan delighted all present with seme
fine music. The addresses by the
various speakers were all enjoyed
and educational. Some of the very
choicest speakers had been secured
such as Rev. L. W. Boe, president of
Waldorf College, Forest City Dr. C.
A. Melby, professor of history in St.
Olaf College Northfield, and Dr.
Martin Hegland of Grand Forks.
Rev. Naess is to be congratualted
upon the success of this large meet
ing. Surely the young people were
inspired with many new ideas along
Christian and educational lines.
A musical program Thursday
evening closed the three days ses
sion.
The Ladies Aid planned a de
lightful picnic supper in the park
and the Austin Automobile club took
all delegates for a ride about our
beautiful city Wednesday after the
afternoon session.
