SOLVANG, Cal.t April 20. The
citizens of this little Danish set
tlement are giving their 28-year
old village the most thorough
sprucing up in its history in pre
paration for the visit of Crown
Prince Frederick and Crown Fruv
cess Ingrid of Denmark on Good
Friday, April 7.
Housewives are mending and
pressing Danish and American
flags. School children, armed with
shovels, hoes, rakes, and wagons.
are attacking weeds in vacant lots
and dressing up their school
grounds. Merchants are giving
store fronts fresh coats of paint.
Three Hour Visit
The royal couple will spend only
three hours here, but during that
time Solvang residents plan to
show them that the smallest point
on their itinerary can give them
the biggest and most royal wel
come.
Solvang has been happy about
the approaching visit for several
months, ever since a committee
of townsmen, reading that Prince
Frederick and his princess would
visit California, cabled him an in
vitation to visit their vllage, one
of the largest settlements of Danes
in America.
Back came a telegram of ac
ceptance from Copenhagen, and
Solvang, aided by Axel C. S.
Sporom-Fiedler, Danish consul in
San Francisco, began to prepare
entertainment for the occasion.
Full Program Planned
During the three hours that the
Crown Prince and Princess are
here, their fellow Danes are go
ing to keep them busy. Greeted by
a reception committee, they will
parade along the flag-draped main
street to the Danish Lutheran
church where as many citizens as
possible will jam inside to join in
a 30-minute service.
Atterdag, the Danish college, Is
the town's greatest pride and the
city lathers will show the royal
couple through its small but in

teresting buildings and over the
well-kept grounds.
With civic pride thus satisfied
the gaiety will begin. Veterans'
Memorial Hall will be the scene
of a colorful reception at which
even the youngest schoolboy will
be presented to the couple. Dan
ish folk dancing and community
singing will enliven the occasion.
"Valley of the Sun"
The royal Danish couple will
travel a picturesque route to reach
this tiny village which nestles in
the fertile Santa Ynez Valley 30
miles back over the mountains
from Santa Barbara.
Solvang which means "valley
of the sun" in Danish was found
ed in 1911 by three enterprising
Danes who bought 10,000 acres of
land and sold it to their fellow
countrymen from all sections of
the U. S.
The community is prosperous,
many of the settlers naving
brought savings with them. Be
fore the Danes came in, farmers
believed that barley was the only
crop that could be raised in the
valley. But beans, grains, hay,
vegetables, and flower seeds now
are raised in abundance, and beef
and dairy ranches prosper.
Each year the village stages a
Danish fiesta. This year it will be
held on June 21, a week after Dan
ish day at the San Francisco fnir,
in the hope that Danes who visit
the exposition will also include
Solvang on their itinerary.
