Outstanding
Swedish Film
To Northwest

Life in old Sweden, far removed
from today's. progressive land of
the Middle Way provides intrigu-
ing background and atmosphere
for one of the most original and
captivating films to reach Ameri-
ca from Scandinavia in years. The
film, Barn fran Frostmofjallet.'
("The Children complete with
English titles) will be taken on
tour to various theatres through
out the Northwest by Gus Back
man. 1t should make a hit.
Shown recently at a private
screening prior to its Northwest
premiere, THE Children" is the
touching story of number of
young sisters and brothers, who
without parents and a good home,
leave the old homestead to search
for happiness, food, protection.
warmth, sometimes just for roof
over their heads, piece of bread.
They cross the rugged snowy wilds
of Northern Sweden in blizZards,
they dare the bowling wolves, and
not even the piercing cry of
mamma from the little ones
can make them turn back to the
fate which would only provide
them with dubious treatment in a
poor house of that day and age.
The touching story of how they
finally, one by one, are adopted
by kind people as authorities try
to track them down, as the evils of
the world of grown-ups relentless
ly check and double check their
childish pursuit of happiness is
one which also deserves Ameri-
can audiences.
The films greatest asset is the
superb acting of the children.
Artistically, the film could have
been greater, but as it is, it is
good enough to produce tears and
laughs from any audience any
where. - T. n.

Fleet Departs

Part of the worlds largest
and most modern fishing fleet
is now getting ready for the new
season.
The Pacific Northwest fleet,
manned mostly by Scandinav-
ians, particularly Norwegions, is
completing tasks preparatory to
the great adventure that lies
ahead. Some of the salmon trail
lers have already left for the
fishing grounds. The halibut
fishing fleet is next in line, fol
lowed by the salmon seiners
which go north to Alaska in the
spring to return for the puget
Sound and Cape" fishing dur
ing the late summer and fall.
The beam traWlers comprise a
number of larger boats which
are engaged in that type of fish
ing practically the year around;
halibut fishing to salmon sein-
ing or herring fishing in Alaska
to sardine fishing in the Wash
ington, Oregon or California
coasts etc.
ut is unbelievable how the
fleet has grown during the past
25 years." says Sverre Jules, a

Report For Scandinavian American:
Seatt|eite Struck By Strange
Customs, Etiquette In Sweder
By Carlyn F. Anderson

Humorous, exasperating, some-
times ludicrOus, but very often in
terestingly different from our own,
SO strike the remnants of ancient
traditions present in Swedish So
cial rules againSt the American
consciousness.
One notices very soon that there
are in Swedish, as in many other
languages, two different ways of
saying you There is the mi
pronounced like "knee') form
used when addressing strangers
and acquaintance and the "du'
form reserved for children, ones
family and other close relatives
and friends. Which form to use
sometimes calls for making fine
distinctions which is likely to irri-
tate Americans not accustomed to
distinguishing between friend and
mere acquaintance. Often, at least
at first, priding himself on the
national trait of democratic
friendliness he will discard the
mi and use only "du." AS a re-
suit saying has been coined
which goes, THE King and AM
orleans say 'du' to everybody"
While the Swedes indulgently
ignore confusion of the two forms
by Americans, misuse by a fellow
Swede can be rude or even down.
right insulting.
An accented "du" spoken to a
stranger or anyone else that would
ordinarily be addressed as mi" is
a familiarity and an insult. On
the other hand, if one has fallen
out with friend it is possible to
be particularly nasty by address,
ing him with cutting "ni.'
For the Swedes themselves,
whether to use "du'' or mi" is not
always an easy choice. Having
once become acquainted with a
person and having used "ni' dur
ing the first few conversations,
when does one begin to say "du"?
Too early usage of "du' may
strike the other person as pre-
sumptiOus and insulting, while
prOlongatiOn of the usage of mi
may make one seem cold, I'M
friendly, formal.
ChOOsy Forms
Perhaps it was to solve this di-
lemma and avoid anxiety complex
es that an even stranger form of
address was developed. That is to
use the persons title and name in
place of a pronoun even when
speaking directly to him. would
Miss Jones like some more cof-
fee?" is one way of asking Sally
Jones a question without being
forced into making a choice be-
tween "du" and mi" Whatever
its origin, this construction is very
common. People can be neighbors
for years, speak to one another
daily, and even in such times of
distress as death of the breadwin-
ner of the family inquire of the
widowed Mrs. Larson, rs there
anything we can do for Fru Lars
SON." The form is also popular
in the customer-c conversa-
Scandinavian American. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1945-1958, 1950-04-11

tions in the neighborhood shops
where the shopper and the shop
keeper may be slightly acquainted.
There is certain amount of re-
bellion against the system of two
different "you's." Students use
only "du' amongst themselves. The
same is often true of workers.
Some clubs and associations agree
to use only the one form between
members, and in some rural areas
mi is not used at all. Everyone
agrees that a single form would
be better = would make for freer,
friendlier social relations, but GUS
toms are persistent, and nobody
really expects the formal form to
die out in the near future.
Everyone Has a Title
Titles are important in Sweden.
Not the titles of nobility, since
there are not many of those left,
but occupational titles. Anybody
that is anything at all has one.
The manager of the smallest firm
may be director" or manager"
The professions are especially re-
spected. Attorneys, doctors, en-
gineers, professors, business and
state officials, all have a special
identifying term with which to
prefix their names. There are ev-
en- feminine forms of titles for use
