OUT OUR WAY
Welded Links in the Melting Pot
Do you realize that according to the»U. S.
census of 1920, there arc 1,023,225 Norwegians in
the United States, either horn in Norway or ohe
or both of whose parents were foreign born; and
that according to the same census» -there are actual
ly upwards of a half million residents of the United
States who were bom in Norway? These figures
become more significant when we realize that the
jwpulation of Norway in 1920 was only 2,649,775.
'
And*because of this sturdy element of Norsemen
making up the one-hundredth part of America’s
great “ melting pot,” it is fitting to call attention to
May 17, Norway’s Constitution Day, celebrated and
held dear by Norsemen wherever they may Be.
Under its Constitution adopted May 17, 1814, Nor
way became a constitutional hereditary monarchy,
tho not by any means absolute, as the people of
that kingdom exercised and enjoyed freedom and
legislative power similar in effect to republics. This
was due to a strong national character backed by a
_
constitution.
• .
The Norsemen love their Constitution as Ameri
cans love theirs. Jh fact, the strong individual tta-
tionai character belonging to the people of Norway,
combined with their conservatism, their develop
ment in the arts, music and painting, their direct
descendancy from the Vikings of old, their strength
in the mercantile marine industry, (which until the
l>eginning of the World War was exceeded only
by Great Britain, Germany and the United States)
means that all Americans can take from them les
sons of strength and loyalty.
To the Norseman in America a word of tribute
is dne. Allegiance is born in him. On. A day of pa
triotic celebration of an American historical event
you will find the America« flag flying ia front
of a Norwegian’s home, perhaps a little sooner thqfl
his neighbor's flag is unfurled. When he speaks,
his words are appreciative of American liberty and
of American institutions. It is bom in a Norwegian
to be patriotic, and he readily adjusts himself to
conditions. Because of the sturdy, patriotic character
of the sone and daughters of Norway, America has.
added a strong fabric to her hatfondl life.
Many men fail because they get into things of
which they know little. But their greatest failure
is because they can not be told so. It is a good
rule that measures its own length. If one buys ever
so fine a set of tools and knows nothing about
carpentry, the tools will rust by his own neglect.
If one goes into the dry goods business and has no
capacity for tnerchaadising and no adaptability for
dealing with the retail buying public, he is travel
ing a long, hard and financially precarious journey.
Many men fail by trying tq “ take over” a uews-
paper, having no idea of what it meant» to get out a
newspaper.
While it is needless to continue pointing out
examples of failure, and while we do not projrosc
any “ rules for succeSs,” all will agree that men
are eminently successful iu a lasting way are those
trained for their jobs; men who stay on their jobs
and stick to them. The “ soldier of fortune” has a
good time for a while. He lives a hundred years in
ten while it lasts; he sees a lot of the world, but
you notice he generally winds up broke and in the
shadow of the ¡»oorhouse. Iu other words, he wins
but in the end he loses. He and his kind are “ color”
1‘Alimony for Husbands”
.
Governor C. C. Young, of California, has signed
a bill pa-'i-d recently by the legislature providing
‘that a needy husband may collect alimony and
Separate maintenance for himself and children
d u r \g and after divorce. We are wondering whether
this alimony business isn’t going a bit toio far. Laws
-encourage marriage, hold the marriage relation
«acred and protect the sanctity of the home; and
this ““ alimony for husbands” law is is not going
to scare out a lot of women from engaging in
matrimony. For in true feminine style the good
