Mr. Kunze is himself a school teacher. He former was superin- tendent of the schools at Red Wing, going from there to St. Paul where he became a prineipal. his other pedagogic experience lead him to realize that the school child-| ren as a rule are anything but fa- miliar with the history, geogravhy | and political conditions of the stave. ? In the course of events Mr. Kuuzui was elected a member of the house ol representattives from Minneapolis where he is now engaged in the real estate business. When he had became a lawmaker | he did not forget the boys and girls. e believed that no better means of | inculeating the greatness of the state into their minds was to set aside one day in each year to impress thvse‘ minds. things upon thei SVEN OFTEDAL. As a broad minded, tireless educat- or and enthusiast for the intellect- ual development of Scandinavians of the Northwest, Sven Oftedal, died Thursday in Lutheran who the Norwegian hospital in| i Deaconess Minneapolis, stood without a peer. For nearly forty years this won-| derful man was actively connected | with Augsburg seminary, earning for that institution the enviable rep-| utation of being one of the most| efficient institutions of that king in the United States, and at the same time lending his ability to the up- building of the public school sys- tem of Minneapolis. In 1877 Mr. Oftedal assumed the burden of lifting a debt of $16,000 against Augsburg. About the first thing he did was to found the Folke- bladt and that paper has been a suc- cess from the beginning and remains today a flourishing periodical to wield a strong influence in carrying on the work of its founder and to re- main a lasting monument to his energies. Mr. Oftedal won unusual honors at the University of Christiania and later made extensive trips through- out the civilized world. He was of the latest highest type of an educa- tional leader while his Dbig hearted nature endeared him to those for- tunate enough to know him as a friend. His career was cut short at a time when he still was in the midst of great activities—tasks that the hn_nd of death refused to permit him to finish; likewise denying him for that period of old age, retirement to view from a place of ease the great works which he had built up. It seemed ordained that he should cram ‘his all too brief years‘wlth real achieve- i { strongly illustrative of what the rich | land grass; 'I’or outsiders and often a revelation | stands the north, ‘who is versed in ‘a\ud who, above all things, is ready notion that it would be| “Min- | This with | | pledge.—Breckenridge Telegram. ment, then to be gathered to fathers. his A GOOD MAN FOR AN IMPORTANT PLACE. It is fortunate that the Beltrami County Fair association has secured as its secretary a man so well quali- fied for the place as Mr.:A. P. Ritchie. In the natural order of things, the secretary is the active head of such a society. The man who = assumes this responsibility at once is looked | upon as the person who, more th:m: anyone else, is to make the fair a! | success, y Beltrami, with her lands being de- nuded of forests, is undergoing trans- | formation from saw mill to farm and certainly there is nothing more soil of the North can bring forth,! than the annual exhibition of grain | fruit and vegetable. As| has been shown in the past, a proper display of farm products is a“magnet for residents. Thus it is quickly apparent that the man behind the fair not only has| a difficult task, but an impurtant? one. It needs a man who under-! scientific farming and stock raising to take off his coat and work hard| and with everlasting zeal to mnkel the fair a success. Those who know him best declare that Mr. Ritchie fulfills all these re- quirements, and more. Equipped with a splendid technical education and backed by a natural admiration ! and love for the products of the soil, all which is reinforced by practical every day experience he appears to | be the one man to whom Beltrami can look to with brightest hopes for a successful fair, and if the aid to which he is entitled is given, as we believe it will be, the 1911 exhibition will be a hummer.
