LETTER IS REFLECTION
OF NOWEGIAN CUSTOMS
(Contined from Page 1)
written to the different members of
the staff since I left Washington, so
if I repeat, kindly excuse. Christlania
Is a city of about 200.000 population,
located at the head of navigation on
the Christlania fjord. The harbor Is
one of the finest in Europe, caused by
the fact that in the ancient drainage
system which was developed In this
section there was a confluence of large
tributaries producing a stream of
great power flowing southward into the
sea. At this confluence a sort of basin
was formed while below here a deep
and narrow canyon was eroded. When
subsidence occurred and the valley be
came greatly depressed, this became
an arm of the sea; the confluence be
came a drowned basin while the can
yon became a narrow fjord connect
ing it with the ocean. The harbor is
large, has deep water, and presents
all the necessary natural advantages
for commercial greatness, yet I fear
it will never be the seat of a great
city. The location is too far out of
the way of the leading commercial
routes and its hinterland is entirely
too poor to give it first-class impor
tance. At present there is a contest
between Copenhagen and Christiania
for the position of seat of the Scandi
navian and Baltic trade, and several
minor cities have also thrown their
hats in the ring, as Christiansand.
Malmo and Goteborg. It seems to me
however that Copenhagen has all the
best of it because of its central posi
tion among the northern European
countries, and because it has position
at the head of ocean navigation, hence
the large vessels by discharging car
goes there reduce to a minimum the
length of the distributing haul neces
sary to serve the trade area. Add to
this the fact that Copenhagen has the
advantage of an established trade as
well as splendid port facilities and it
secma to me that her supremacy is
assured.
"But even if Christiania does not
become the first port among the Scan
dinavian countries, she will always be
a city of much commercial importasce.
This is the railway center of Norway,
having become such because of this
same confluence of valleys to which I
have already referred and the location
with respect to England is favorable
to commercial intercourse there. And
in addition to commerce this city will
always attract tourists because of its i
climate and its scenic surroundings.
The winters, although long and snowy,
are not cold and so Christiania has j
become widely known as the seat of ;
winter sports. Here are held annually .
the ski races of northern Europe, at
tracting thousands of visitors, while
other sports such as snow-shoeing,
sleighing, and skating are also in great
favor here. So you see it is a place
of varied attractions.
"But even more interesting than the I
climate or scenery are the people of j
these northern lands. While the
Swedes, Danes and Norwegians have
many characteristics in common, they
also have many points In which they
differ. On the whole the Norse are
taller and sturdier, it seems to me,
- than their southern brethren, and they
also appear more democratic. That
they are greater sailors Is, of course,
traditional. The people here are very
courteous, so much so that it moves
one to smiles at times. Gentlemen
greeting each other on the street al
ways tip their hats. In fact they

ELI SHIRE, Pres.
usually remove them and make deep
and sweeping bows if they are well
bred. When I step Into an office I
am invariably met by a very graceful
bow and when I leate they are not
only deep but numerous, and I am
supposed to respond in kind. This
keeps me facing the gentlemen and.
Incidentally, backing out, often to my
discomfiture, because I am not yet an
adept at dodging furniture and other
office fixtures while moving In that
position. As time goes on and I get
more practice I hope to show some
improvement in Norse manners. The
Norse are beautifully polite also on
street cars and railways, e. g., when
the conductor asks for the fare he al
ways says "Please," the passenger in
submitting It says "Vaer saa god" (be
so kind as to take it), and the con
ductor renponda with "Tack" (thanks).
How different that is from our brusque
American practice. That same type
of courtesy prevails In cafes and res
taurants and even in shops and stores.
A gentleman takes off his. bat If a
lady salesman waits on him in a store
(reporter's note: in America this
would take the form of severe flirta
tion), and he bows and tips his hat
even to a man clerk. While I would
hardly favor going to the extremes
that they do here I believe we would
gain greatly If we practicedln Amer
ica a little more courtesy than we do.
I believe that being courteous is a
good deal like smiling, it increases
the sum total of happiness."
