Odd Information About Denmark

Most of them take an unflaS ging
part in the conversation, to the in
finite delight of their proud par
ents and to other peoples aston
ishment.
Copenhagen's night clubs are the
cheapest in the world You can
order a sandwich and a glass of
beer in the best of them = and
let it end at that, if you like.
The official rate of tipping is
12le per cent; but Is per cent en-
sures better service, which is why
many people give II per cent.
When drinking beer, wine, or
spirits one says "Skaal" to ones
companion. Nobody seems to know
precisely why it should be "Skaal"
but it is friendly and, therefore,
necessary
For reasons unknown. an an
nouncer is called Speaker IN
| Danish, a dinner jacket "Smok-
ing" and a cap a "Sixpence."
Fresh air is regarded with en-
thusiasm as very, very healthy.
In railway carriages, however, it
is not fresh air because it instant
ly becomes a draft.
Some people believe the streets
are clean because the wind imme-
diately blows away the dirt They
are mistaken. The streets are
swept and washed every morning
like all nice children. Some even
say that h e trees are combed!
At any rate, they are trimmed!
The Danes have a pronounced
sense of humor. It is so strong
that it makes them laugh at
things which are definitely not
funny.
There are many dogs in Den
mark-but very few Great Danes.
I To make the confusion complete
we call them Grand Danois'.
Denmark was never intended to
be inhabited in winter, but it is
lovely in spring, summer and aut-
umn.
A visitor from Florida once said
that Copenhagen had two winters,
a white one and a green one. The
statement is bit unjust
The Danish national drink is
beer. The Danish national weak
ness is another beer.
The Danes worship anything
foreign and everything Danish.
