TOUR ATTRACTION Flower Shows and Fair Are. Among Events Travelers May Attend. NEW YORK, March 2—This year Holland is going to make a bid for the tourist—all nationalities in gen- eral, but Americans in particular— if one is to judge by the number of inquiries being received at the Cunard White Star tour department. A num- ber of attractive events are listed, among them a series of flower shows are in way of preparation. Holland’s flower shows might be said to begin with the bulb and end with the bloom. On March 15 the Heemstede International Flower Show will open. Heemstede is near Haar- lem. Bulbs will be featured here, but they will be illustrated by the blossoms of kindred bulbs. All kinds of Spring flowers will be exhibited here. The show, which will con- stantly change, will last until May 21. During April there will be a show devoted to Spring flowers at Boskoop, near Amsterdam. From March 12 to March 21 the international Spring fair will be held at Utrecht. Flowers will be the fea- ture of the show. “Beautiful Holland,” which is more than a flower show, will be Amster- dam’s drawing card during April. Also during April Princess Juliana’s birthday anniversary will be cele- brated. It will be her 26th. She is the heir presumptive to the throne. Holland will also feature several sporting events during the year. On March 31 teams representing Holland and Belgium will meet in Amsterdam on May 30 the rowing matches will be held in the same city, and early in November the international cycle races will be held. Queen Wilhelmina's birthday an- niversary will be celebrated on Au- Lust 31. Upon the death of her father in 1890 she became queen, thus this year represents the forty-fifth year of her reign. Her birthday will be celebrated throughout the Nether- lands and also throughout her coun- v's colonies. JFhe opening of Parliament by the en on September 17 will be the event of the Fall. The Hague a social center for the day. —_— ASKA TO BE TOPIC Third of Series on National Parks to Be Given Thursday. ‘The third of a series of lectures on national parks, sponsored by the Na- tional Parks Club of America, will be held in the auditorium of the De- partment of Commerce Building ‘Thursday night, when George Clarke Dickens of the Interior Department, will speak on Alaska.

Unless he is more hardy than his lenowsl and delights in snow and_ice sports, he eschews Scandinavia, Fin- | land and Soviet Russia in the Winter and heeds the guide book which says Summer is the best time for tours on the peninsula and nearby coun- tries. The feeble rays of the sun are growing stronger in the northern hemisphere and many a forward-look- ing vacationist, even as he toasts his shins before an open fire, is puzzling over whether he should go by land or by sea, and where. Pictures of majestic fjords, which possibly he de- scribes as broad rivers between moun- tainous cliffs, are appearing in the windows of travel agencies, and if he has been window shopping he ponders over Scandanavia. What are the countries like? Brief, sharp pictures, without benefit of | adorned rhetoric can give him a definite impression and readiiy di- gested information. Here are Norway, | Sweden, Denmark and Finland, | | tersely told: | ¥ ks THE best time for tours is from June | to September. The midnight sun is visible in Sweden (Lapland) and Norway through June to the middle of July | (North Cape, May 12-July 31; Spitz- bergen, April 20-August 26). In nearly all hotels catering to tour- ists, English, German or French is spoken. In the larger Swedish, Nor- wegian, Danish and Finnish cities and tourist resorts, hotels are equipped with baths, central heating, hot and cold water and other conveniences. Roads are good and attractive inns and restaurants line the main high- | ways. In Sweden traffic moves on | the left side of the road; in Norway, Denmark and Finland, to the right. In all northern countries the hours are counted from 0 to 24 in railroad and steamer time tables. (For in- stance, 3 p.m. is 15 o'clock.) ik 'RAINS have coaches of the cor- ridor type, and on the main lines, there are salon coaches. The mean Summer temperature in Stockholm is 64 degree Fahrenheit as compared with 66 in Paris. Medium- weight clothing should be carried in the Summer, with a heavy overcoat for motoring and a windproof rain- coat for the mountains. Norway levies a tax of 10 per cent on all meals. In Scandinavia and Finland, the food generally is excel- lent. Special dishes are spread before the hungry tourist. Scandinavian Hors d'oeuvres—“Smorgasbord” in Sweden —are internationally famous. ‘There are three classes in train travel, and many of the day trains have only second and third class. Certain restrictions have been put on alcoholic drinks, including wines, | THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, HUH_AN[] m STAGE The Traveler’s Notebook Warmer Weather to Open Up Land of the Vikings m W[]RI_[] SKIERS to Tourists in June—Norway, Sweden, Den- mark and Finland, Tersely Told. in Sweden, Norway and Finland for fly-fishing is from June to September.

Densely wooded heights surround it. Interesting things to see include the fashionable promenade and main shopping street—Karl Jo- hansgade, Tromso, which is reached by regular coastal steamers and tourist vessels, is the starting point of many Arctic expeditions. Hammerfest is the most northernly town in the world. Leon, lying on the Nord Fjord, of- fers a delightful trip to Kjendalsbreen Glacier. A small steamer carries the tourist over a small and lovely lake. Carts, hauled by the characteristic little Nord Fjord ponies, transport the excursionists to the site of the glacier. Sogne Fjord penetrates inland 100 miles, between immense, towering clifis. Balestrand, famous tourist center, lies on the north side. The Bergen-Oslo Railway, an engi- neering feat, passes through some of the most characteristic mountainous country. Oye, on the Hjorund Fjord, is the | gateway to the wild and beautiful Norang Valley. % IBORG, one of Finland's oldest towns, has a fortress dating from the thirteenth century. It was built by the Swedes for protection against the Muscovites. Excursions to Valamo Abbey, which dates to the tenth century, are begun at Sortavala. Abo, formerly the capital, is the oldest town in Finland. =k 'OPENHAGEN, Denmark, is the most populous city of the north- ern countries, having 800,000 people. It is also the gayest of the Scandina- vian cities. Amalienborg, the royal palace, should be noted.

Today is Holnfenkollen day in Oslo, when ski jumpers from many coun- | tries of the world meet in the Nor- wegian capital to vie for the King’s cup on famous Holmenkollen Hill, above the city. Oslo was founded by a royal skier, King Harald Haardraade, says & bulle- tin from the Washington, D. C., head- quarters of the National Geographic Society, which continues: Fires and wars have destroyed most of the town he built. In 1624 it was rebuilt by Christian IV of Den- mark and named Christiania. Three hundred years later, however, the old name was resumed, and Christiania is Oslo on all modern maps. Oslo Fjord winds northward from the Skagerrak, between low, rolling hills. Sheltered coves behind these hills were Viking strongholds in the days when Knut of Engiand invaded Norway.

The Royal Palace and the Town Hall are among the principal places to see. Gripsholm Castle, on Lake Malaren, not far from Stockholm, is entirely worthy of a trip. Drottningholm Place, also on Lake Malaren, is a royal residence and has beautiful gardens and statuary. The museum to the eighteenth century theater should be visited. Falun, in the province of Dalecarlia, has a copper mine dating from the Middle Ages. Canals border many of the parks of Gothenburg, being constructed by the Dutch settlers, who were invited | there in the seventeenth century. It {is the principal port of Sweden and | the harbor is an imposing sight. Andre, the Arctic balloon explorer. who perished in his spectacular at- tempt to soar to the Pole and back, was born at Granna. There is an Andre museum. Marstrand is a popular watering place near Gothenburg Rattvik, tourist center of Dalecarlia, is a picturesque place, where natives don their festive and characteristic dress on Sundays and holidays. Visby is a quaint provincial town, once a powerful member of the Hanseatic league, now a city of roses and ruins. The medieval walls are topped by 37 towers. STEAMSHIPS.

Metal or Wood Best in Cabins? |CANADA'S RAILROADS New Superliner to Make Test Normandie Tries Both—Line Officials Will Watch Public’s Reaction as Tonsberg and Sandefjord, on Oslo Fjord, are home ports for the great whaling fleets that have pushed Nor- weglan industry far into Antarctic waters, Eighty miles inland the fjord wideus into an island-dotted lake on whose northern shore is Oslo, set in a curve of steep, wooded hills. Save for an old church or two and the thirteenth century fortress, Aker- shus, that guards the harbor, there is little in modern Oslo to remind one of the past. Among the principal buildings are the royal palace, Stort- ing (Parliament) University and Na- tional Theater, all reached by Karl Johansgate. Rather curiously, this main street of Norway's capital was named for a foreign ruler—Napoleon's general, Bernadette, who became Charles XIV of Norway and Sweden. On Bygdoy, a tree-covered island west of Oslo, is the famous Norwegian Folk Museum. Here, under open skies or set in birch woods, are preserved the homes of past centuries, Nor- way's wooden architecture, the prod- uct of her great forests, is character- istic of the country. Design, decora- tion and even furniture are deter- mined by structure. In the low, dim interiors, tables, benches and beds are built into the rooms as solidly as rafters and walls. From December to April the snow- covered hills near Oslo are traced with ski tracks and toboggan runs. Korketrakkeren, alias Corkscrew Hill, is best for tobogganing. On Sundays and holidays, thousands pack the trains for Holmenkollen, their skis stacked in racks outside the cars. Two cross-country ski races are held dur- ing the Winter sports week that pre- | cedes Holmenkollen day. Contestants in the jumping events must first qual- ify in these. One race is over a 10- mile course, the other covers a ais- | tance of 31 miles and is one of the most difficult tests known to skiers. Oslo's skating rinks are worthy of the city of Sonja Henfe, who has held the world figure skating cham- plonship since 1927. International skating competitions are another fea- ture of sports week. Nansen, who crossed Greenland on skis, trained first on the hills about Oslo. Amundsen, following the same trails, developed the skill and endur- ance that carried him to the South Pole and back. At Frognersateren, above Holmenkollen, is a ski museum, with every known type of ski, and also relics of the great Norwegian polar expeditions. At Easter time, when the snow in the lowlands has begun to melt, skiing | conditions in the mountains are per- fect. Then Oslo declares a holiday and young and old crowd the snow trains bound north. Norway reaches well above the Arctic Circle, and in higher altitudes the skiing lasts through May, despite lengthening days and hot Spring sunshine. STEAMSHIPS. HAVRE, March 2.—When the new superliner Normandie, largest float- ing unit in the world, clears this port | on her maiden voyage to the United | States next May, she will be equipped | with 12 metallic cabins, which will enter upon a protracted but entlrely’ friendly competition with the great number of other cabins whose inte- riors and fittings are largely built of rare and beautiful woods, to find out which in the course of time best endures the wear and tear of travel and gives the best satisfaction to passengers and ship owners alike. Some experts contend fireproofed woods of finest texture and most beautiful natural design serve best in constructing and furnishing demi- luxe cabins because they are more pleasing to the eye, stand surface | wear the longest while showing fewest ebrasions, and are by all means the most economical for the steamship company which must keep them in | repair. Other experts have pointed out that metal is stronger, permitting of lighter construction, can be beauti- fied even as wood, and will last the longest. The metallic cabins now receiving their final touches from the dec- | orators working on the Normandie, YACHTING FIESTA HELD Committee of 100 to Hold Picnic | This Week Near Miami.

Floor coverings may not be metal in the case of these 12 cabins, but beds, chairs, wardrobes, mirror frames and tables are of the finest metals obtainable. ‘The material used is alumin sheets, decorated with stainless, lacquered and varnished steel. The metal fur- niture is painted in blue and green and is of especially beautiful design. The test, which must necessarily last over a term of years, is of deep interest to construction and equip- ment experts generally, and the public’s preference will be watched closely. RESORTS.

MONTREAL, March 2.—The dyed- in-the-wool sportsman, seeking un- spoiled hunting and fishing areas, has been forced to go back to railway travel in order to reach still better hunting_and fishing, says Alan N. Longstaff of the Canadian National Railways. He added that the rail- ways are continually rolling back the | sportsman’s map and developing new sports areas for Canadians and Can- ada’s visitors. “Canada still has unspoiled fish and game areas, but to reach them you must go further afield than is pos- sible with your automobile,” he said recently. “You can still visit lakes and streams where record speckled trout, muskellunge and black bass are wait- ing to give you battle, and you can do it best through the medium of the railway train. From the railway you may journey by canoe, motor boat or by airplane, according to the kind of sport you are seeking.” NEW YORK HOTEL PENN POST HOTEL in the heart of New York City S.W.
