THE AMERICAN-SCANDINA FI AN REVIEW 
will arrive in Paris to stay there for three or 
four days before going aboard the Saxonia 
again. They will arrive in New York Sep¬ 
tember 1. 
The itinerary is still tentative. The Direc¬ 
tor of the tour intends that it shall remain 
subject to minor changes until a short time 
before sailing, so that he may take advantage 
of every opportunity to increase the interest 
and value of the trip. 
The Foundation’s Part 
It is because this tour is for students that 
the Trustees of the Foundation have given 
their endorsement and support to it. This is 
an educational undertaking of the same nature 
as the Foundation’s exchange of Fellows, for 
it likewise leads to a more intelligent under¬ 
standing between nations. These American 
students will visit the universities of the North 
and meet many distinguished Scandinavian 
scholars. They will return with more accu¬ 
rate knowledge of the art and architecture, 
the natural resources, and the industries of 
Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. The gov¬ 
ernments of the three countries will be invited 
to give formal recognition to the tour, and 
the Foundation’s associated organizations in 
the three capitals will wish to meet and aid 
these American students. 
Expenses and Administration 
The cost to each student participating in 
the tour will be $675. This pays for steam¬ 
ship accommodations on the Saxonia at the 
basic rate; railroad transportation in Europe, 
usually in special trains or cars; hotel accom¬ 
modations and food; transfer and care of a 
limited amount of baggage; and expenses of 
sight-seeing, such ^s admission to galleries 
and museums, automobile and carriage drives, 
and services of guides. The Director of the 
International Students’ Tours will organize 
the group and supervise its management in 
Europe, providing chaperons and doctors and 
trained nurse. Travel arrangements 
throughout the trip will be handled by the 
travel Department of the American Express 
Company which, in 1921, acted as managers 
for a similar tour to Italy. 
Applications for enrollment and requests 
for additional information should be ad¬ 
dressed to Mr. Irwin Smith, Director of the 
International Students’ Tours, either in care 
of the American-Scandinavian Foundation or 
at 30 East 42nd Street, New York.

Not in the Curriculum 
Like any other group of students, the fifty- 
six Fellows and Scholars of the Foundation 
find time for pleasure, for the open road and 
the dance floor. On a Friday afternoon late 
in October, a little group of nine Americans 
might have been seen tramping toward Flott- 
sund. They were the Uppsala contingent of 
American students, four of them Fellow’s of 
the Foundation. Chemistry, history, soci- 
ology, and literature had been forgotten for 
the afternoon. * * * And a few days 
later, the students in Stockholm met with the 
members of Sverige-Amerika Stiftelsen at the 
Grand Hotel to hear a lecture and then to 
dance. * * * For four weeks, the In¬ 
dian Summer weeks of September and Octo¬ 
ber, C. L. Christensen, our student of agri¬ 
culture in Denmark, visited Danish farms 
and experiment stations, spending two weeks 
in Jutland, a week on Fyn and a week on 
Laaland-Falster. * * * “The town of 
Trondhjem,” we read in a letter from our 
engineering student, Mr. Braaten, “is situated
