The appointment of Professor So
derblom to the archbishopric of Up
sala is an event Of great importance
70 the nationalist movement in Swe-
den. In a recent issue of the Revue
de Paris the genesis and history of
that movement is given and it is
shown how the intellectual and reli-
gious influence of Upsala has per-
| meated it from its very beginning.
The movement started in 1884 in the
Christian Union of the Students of
Upsala. Soderblom was one of its
| founders. The aim of the society was
to inculcate in the people convic-
| ton that the Swedish nation had a
divinely appointed task to fulfill and
fulfill it. Because Of it's undoubted
encouragement of the patriotic and
traditional instinct of the Swedish
people the new society obtained the
support of writer's such as Strind-
berg, Eli Hackscher and Laurin,
sworn enemies to Socialism and COM
patriotism. Since these early days
Professor Soderblom has taken fore
most place in the intellectual and re-
ligious life of his country and has
brought to the national movement the
religious element which throughout
history has characterized the patriot
ism Of the Swedes. Apart from, and
even previous to the Upsala move
ment, the Revue de Paris points to a
great wave of national romanticism
inspired by such artists as Heiden-
STAN, Selma Lagerlof and Zorn, the
| painter Of Swedish scenes and land
scapes. It was this spread of roman
ticism which prepared the ground for
the students and insured the en-
| thusiastic response which the country
gave to their call for the need of de-
tense. The Upsala movement, which
had it's birth among the intellectual
elite Of the country, and which is re-
ton, finds powerful ally in the state
church.
| The Dalecarlians are patriotic. The
Dalrne Defense union recently sent
the department of war $13,5OO for
new rapidfire guns and the Boras
district sent $4,000 for the same pur-
pose. Patriotic men and women in
Voxio have applied to the government
for permission to give a great enter
tainment, including lottery games, for
the benefit of the defenses.
