Ten children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Dahl :
John, Anna, Bertha, Mary, Julia, Louisa, Martin, Alfred and Inga.
1) John, who was graduated from the University of Wisconsin in 1913, was for some time a school teacher, being principal of the high school at Thorp for two years and of that at Shell Lake one year, Cashton one year and Algoma four years. He was also superintendent of city schools at Bloomington Prairie, Minn., three years. His training for the profession of teacher was obtained at the River Falls normal school, where he was graduated in 1904. While engaged in this work he studied law by the correspondence method and applied himself to it so thoroughly that he qualified for the bar, during the same period earning $5,500 in his regular vocation. He is now a practicing attorney at Rice Lake, Wis.
2) Anna graduated from the Dixon Business College at Dixon, IL and resides in St. Paul, where she is cashier in a store.
3) Bertha Louisa, who graduated from the River Falls normal school and was a teacher for ten years, is now the wife of Grover Pace, a druggist of Adams, Wis.
4) Mary, who graduated in domestic science from the University of Chicago, is engaged in teaching domestic science at Hammond, Ind.
5) Miss Julia, who graduated from River Falls normal school, is now a teacher at Mason City, Iowa.
6) Louisa, a graduate of the same normal school, teaching at Carthage, SD
7) Martin is residing on the home farm and assisting his father in its cultivation. He has the distinction of being the youngest town treasurer to serve in the county, being elected at the age of 22, and serving three years. At the age of 26 he was elected to his present office as chairman.
8) Alfred graduated from a business college at Minneapolis in June, 1916, and is now bookkeeper in a bank at Seattle, Wash.
9) Miss Inga, who graduated from the La Crosse normal school, is now a teacher at Brandon, Wis.
10) Martin L., born 1895 died in infancy
It will thus be seen that Mr. Dahl has educated his children for responsible positions in life, and that all, both sons and daughters, are making their own way in the world, and, it may be added, reflecting credit on the family name.
