In the fall of the year 1006 he sailed for Greenland. The next year he returned to Iceland, where his descendants still live. One of these was Hauk Erlende son, who wrote down the account ol his great-great-grandfather's adven tures. , All this we have heard from so many independent sources that we can accept it as the truth. Whether any further Norse expeditions ever reached Vinland we do not know. There are historians who believe that they ex plored Labrador and Newfoundland as well as Nova Scotia. It is possible. In the year 1123 the Sagas tell of a Greenland bishop who went in search of Vinland. Not a word was ever heard from him. Did he reach Amer ica and did he survive or was he driven into the Arctic seas and frozen to death? We do not know, but the discovery, a few years ago, of a num ber of Kskimos who are apparently of white descent, seems to show that cer tain Norse sailors were driven to America, lost all touch with. the home land, and finally returned to a state of seml-wildness as Eskimos.

You came to have a good time ; why don't you get busy and have it? I want to get out and smoke." "You mustn't leave me, Walter," she whispered, hastily.

"That ain't the right way to talk about , them gentlemen," Ma ehided, ' but." she asked curiously,' "what've they been doing that's so funny?' "I just been readin'." T.

"Well, goodness knows," Ma ex claimed, "if anything or anybody needs to have a prayer fixed up for it the legislature's that thing." "I ain't denyin' that at all," T. Paer agreed, "but the thing that makes me tickled is what, innocent guys them bishops must be." "Innocent," Ma retorted. "Why oughtn't they to be innocent when they're preachers?" "I know." T. Paer answered, "but I never thought even a preacher could be that innocent." "How innocent?" Ma asked. "I don't just know what you mean." "Why," T. Paer chuckled, "innocent enough to think any prayer could be fixed up that'd do a legislature any good." "I don't like to hear you talk that way; it ain't right." May reproved him. "They ain't nothin' that can't be helped by prayer." "That's all right to argue, T. Paer contended, "but if you'd hung 'round legislatures as much as I've did you'd know prayin' for 'em was just a waste of time." "I was reading about that. Ma said, " 'nd them that was for fixing up the prayer musfve knowed what they was doing." Maybe they thought they did," T.

"They Is a lot of difference. I guess." "They sure is," T.

Ma remarked judicially, "ain't either Republican or Democrat." "Maybe not," T. Paer conceded, "but blamed If I can figger out where the same prayer'd do both of 'em any good." "I don't see why," Ma Insisted. "I believe prayer always does some good even if they ain't no words to it at all." "Maybe it does," T.

"I can't understand why," Ma argued, "just so long as they're prayed for in good faith." "Because to make the Republicans say 'amen'," T.

Although official information is lacking , indications point strongly to the Rt Rev. William P. Remington, suffragan bishop of South Dakota, as the next bishop of Eastern Oregon. It is understood that South Dakota has made a determined fight to keep Bishop Remington and contended that he should not be transferred ow ing to the difficulty of securing an other man to undertake the peculiar type of work in that district. The work of the suffragan bishop is prin cipally among Indians. OFFER SYMPATHY Supporters of B:shop Remington for the Eastern Oregon post are con tending on the contrary that thia ar gument is nil, as the church will not lose through the transfer because Eastern Oregon also has a large In dian work. Consideration of amendments In the book of common prayer occupied most of the time at the morning session of the House of Deputies today.
