Show Visitors Arrive From Denmark; Plan to Hemain Knut Larsen, recently of Copenhagen, Copen-hagen, Denmark, and his wife, Lise, and their daughters, Lotte, five years old, and Lene, two years old, arrived in Delta Saturday, where they were met at the train by Mr. Larsen's second cousin, L. Nielson Clark. They arrived in the United States October 26, where they plan to make their home and become American citizens. Although this is their first time in this country, they speak English Eng-lish well. They studied it in school in Denmark, and learned more talking with Mr. and Mrs. Clarke, when the Clarks were in the Danish Dan-ish mission field. In turn they helped help-ed Mr. and Mrs. Clarke with their speaking of Danish. Mr. Larsen was a certified public pub-lic accountant in Denmark, but will not hold that commission in the United States until after he become be-come a citizen, which takes about 5 years. In the meantime he hopes to obtain employment in accounting account-ing and auditing while making a home for his family. He is a student stu-dent of the International Accounting Account-ing Society. Their first stop in the United States was at Hartford, Connecticut, Connecti-cut, where they also have relations. There they were unable to find a vacant apartment where children child-ren are welcomed. Mr. Larsen remarked re-marked that just the reverse was the case in Denmark, where couples cou-ples with children had priority over those without. And in many cases 'the rent decreased as the size of the family increased. While in Delta they are staying with Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Clark. Mrs. Clark and Mrs. June Heyborne are cousins of Mr. Larsen's father. They find they like Utah very much, even in cold weather, which even so, is milder than the damp cold of Denmark. And especially do they enjoy the mountains, as their highest point in Denmark is not much over 500 feet. |
