Broadview Swedish Seminary

THE Swedish Seminary has just entered upon the most promising year of its history. It is now free from debt, and has been able to raise a substantial improvement fund besides. The present enrolment is the largest it has ever enjoyed. Principal G. E. Nord says in a recent letter:—
“You have undoubtedly heard that our school has been dedicated free of debt. The Lord has helped us in securing the $150,000 to lift the debt, and $6,000 extra for improvements. We are just about to put up a 10,000-gallon tank for water.
“On Monday night after the dedication, the Swedish workers present, with the faculty, students, and friends from Chicago, pledged more than $1,000 toward electric lights.
“At the end of the first week there were about forty students above the eighth grade. We have only two who are taking work below the eighth grade at the present time, and our enrolment is now over sixty. We are still looking for quite a number to come. The opening this year was more encouraging and pleasant than in any previous year.”
