LONDON, July 5.-A medical
expert came forward yesterday
with an answer to Britain's mys-
terry of the swooning soldiers. He
said the reason is rush of blood
to the feet.
DR.. Edward Sharpey-Schafer
professor of medicine at St.
Thomas Hospital, said the cure is
to stop making parade ground
warriors stand at rigid attention.
The recent fainting epidemic
at British Army, Navy and Air
Force formations was climaxed by
the death of a soldier whose bay
.onet pierced his throat as he fell.
In another instance, nearly 100
girls hit the ground at a single
formation of enlisted navy women.
Many of the fainters have been
punished by their officers on the
official theory that the swoons
were caused by hangovers.
Not so, declared DR.. Sharpey-
Schafer in letter to the Times Of
London.
The faint, he said, "is due to a

MORSE KIDS PAN AUTHORS:
We Don't Want Comic Books With
Same Old Yarns, Sentimental Drip

Boys and girls from the three
upper grades of kampen Public
School, Oslo, recently took their
hair down and told authors off on
the subject of children's books.
Meeting with parents and teach
ers. in conjunction with a Christ
mas Book Fair and Art Exhibit
arranged at the school, the teen
ayers earnestly debated the mer-

lie literature. Summarized by one
of the girls. they reaching the fol-
lowing conclusion:
I'VE like books to be humorous,
thrilling and sad. Educational
books are also OK. but they, too,
should be entertaining. We don't
care a whit for series books by
authors who have been spinning
the same yarn too long Nor do
We want any more saccharine stuff
or sentimental drip"

ty much in agreement on most
points. and minced no words as to

Swedish Ministers
Leave Red China

Working conditions in the mis-
sionary fields in China have now
become so difficult that most for
eign missionaries, among them
many Swedes. have found il neces-
sary to withdraw. OF the SO SWe-
dish ministers and teachers who
worked in Communist China N
1850, 81 have given up their sta
tons and left the country via dif-
ferent routes. Some have already
returned to Sweden, while Others
have reached Japan by way Of
Hong Kong. For the present, ia
pan is the only Oriental field open
to the various mission societies.
There remain in China today only
q missionaries. but the situation
is such that at least ten of these
will soon be forced to turn their
posts over to native co-workers.

their likes and dislikes
OF American books, the TarZan
series received a somewhat mixed
verdict. One of the boys put it
this way: I'm keen about Tarzan
because he is big and strong. But
otherwise it's the same old stuff in
every book" Jack London's Call
of the Wild" was pronounced ex-
cellent - something beyond the
usual. Uncle Toms Cabin" met
with approval because it doesn't
hurt to read something sad" And
every body was agreed sthat Mark
Twain's "Huckelberry Finn" and
Tom Sawyer" were just swell.

Last Thursday the celebrated
bard, bespectacled and sage-look-
ing, arrived in Seattle with Mrs.
Wildenvey, an accomplished au-
thoress of five books. Staying at
the beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs.
Erode Frodesen, 1902 34th N. W.,
the distinguished Norwe a n
guests will be the main focal
points of interest in Seattle's large

A Song In His Heart
The man whom Knut Hanson,
Norway's greatest novelist, termed
as his country's greatest yr i C
poet, has come long way since
wanderlust drove him across the
Atlantic for the first time. Then
he was among the $50 passengers
who were rescued after the S. S.
Norge foundered on reef off the
coast of Scotland. He spent six
DAYS on the North Atlantic in a
small open boat, but even then he
couldn't keep from writing
Wildenvey's discovery of Amer
lea dates back to those days, when
he not only studied at a theological
seminary in st. Paul, Mimi, but
also worked for farmers, doubled
as school teacher in the Dakotas,
and served with the United States
marine corps in Manila. Some
thing. perhaps the creative urge.
drove him back to Norway, and
there, in 1907, he burst upon the
Norwegian literary scene like a
veritable bombshell with the book
of poems, "Nyinger", which set
young Morse hearts a-singing and
assigning. This was a man with
a song in his heart. He was subtle,
gay, and he was different.
Met Over a Poem
To the Swedes who know and
value his work. it may be well
worth their knowing that Sweden's
Gustaf Froding had definite in
fluence on him. In fact, he has
been called, "Norway's Froding'
Wildenvey was the poet every
literary person was talking about
in Norway so it was only natural
that when Mrs. Wildenvey wanted
to get an experts opinion off one
of her poems. she looked him up.

didn't matter, because we only
thought about each other" says
