CANDIDATE FOR THE Oslo.—In Norway nature provides a "daylight saving” system which should be the envy of all Ameri cans who seek to prolong the days of summer. FOR Americans in many states set their clocks ahead an hour during summer, to capture enough addi tional daylight for a golf match, a swim, an evening drive after work.

The regions of this great spec tacle were long off the beaten track of tourists and were considered a land of Lapps, of crude hunters and fisher folk. Few travelers ven tured further north than Trondheim, ancient capital of Norway. Modern transportation, however, has changed all that, and today a voy age to North Cape is almost a “must” of a trip to Norway and northern Europe. Because of the great Oslo Exhibition of Norwegian Life, which will open May 12 and continue to September 18, Norway expects a great increase in Amer ican and Canadian travelers, and consequently in visitors to North Cape. Most travelers begin their voyage into the region of the midnight sun at Trondheim, sailing through a placid sea which mirrors massive cliffs and mountains. As the cruise vessel crosses the Arctic circle, it usually fires a cannon shot and the crew points out the location of this imaginary line, which passes over the island mountain Hestmanden, or the “Horseman.” At the great Vest- fjord the Lofoten islands come into view, a magnificent spectacle in deed, with their colorful fishing hamlets and towns. This archipel ago is home of the greatest cod fish eries in the world, and yet so lovely that artists have come here for gen erations to paint it. Carlyle’s Porch Lamp. Tromso, travelers find, is a busy town, the center of a vast fishing industry and the so-called capital of the Arctic. Ships leaving it often time their departure so that pas sengers may see the midnight sun between the islands of Vannoy and Arnoy, just before midnight. At this spot the sea horizon is broken by a solitary summit, the Fugloy, so that travelers have an unobstructed view as the sun traces a path of burnished gold over the shining sea. To the surprise of many people, Hammerfest, most northerly city of the world, has all the comforts of civilization—electricity, movies, telephones, and newspapers. There is little about it to remind one that one is 300 or more miles north of the Arctic circle, except that trees have grown smaller and somewhat scarce. Even there, however, a tiny forest struggles pluckily for exist ence. The North Cape and the midnight sun as seen from it must thrill even the least emotional of travelers. Whoever stands on that limit of the world and looks out over the polar ocean and the silent North can never forget the barbaric splendor of its desolate solitude, which Thomas Carlyle described as "the silent immensity and palace of the eternal, whereof our sun is but a porch lamp.” A m erica n A r t S h o w S e t fo r Pari« T h is Sum m er Paris.—France will be treated this summer to a new version of America—as seen through the eyes of American artists from 1700 to the present day. The exposition, which will be opened in May, will take place in the Jeu de Paume museum in Par is, under the joint auspices of the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the French National mu seums. Most of America’s “old masters," such as Whistler, whose famous "Mother” is now in the Louvre; the sculptor, Augustus St. Gaudens; Samuel F. B. Morse, whom most Americans know better as the in ventor of the telegraph than as a painter; John Singer Sargent, and Benjamin West, will be represented —as well as many contemporary artists. Ambassador William C. Bullitt is one of the honorary patrons of the Jeu de Paume. Goose 35 Years O ld Knows W hen to H ide Orillia, Ont.—Neighbors are wondering if Mrs. William N. Smith’s 35-year-old goose has dis covered the secret of youth. The only mystery is that the goose disappears from the flock every year just before Christmas and returns immediately after the festive season.
