SILVERTON, May 13 "Sy
tende Mai" will again be observed
at Silverton. Americans of Nor
wegian ancestry will turn out once
again to feast on lefse and fat
tigman bakelse, on sand bakkles,
sprntes and krumkager. Perhaps
there will also be flotegrod. Like
ly sometime during the evening
"Ja VI Elsker Dette Landed" will
be sung. A few years ago Nor
wegian would have been the prin
cipal language spoken during the
social hours at these festivals.
Now and then it is still heard, but
the English language greatly pre
dominates. Occasionally a hybrid
of the two breaks out.
Oddly enough the few people
at Silverton with Danish ancestry
will also join in with the Ob
servance although Denmark
