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.
Norwegians, on the other hand
simply let nature take its course,

Magnificent Spectacle.
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.
