Rev. Aardal reports that depos-

The church post office handled
nearly $4,000 letters and 2,00C
pieces of parcel post last year. AS
part of the regular routine, it al

whereabouts of seamen.
Reading Room Popular
Besides regular church services
the Brooklyn station arranges -four
social evenings a week. Ever

Reports from Oslo reveal
growing interest in the so-called
ship adoption plan whereby Nor
wegian school children keep up
regular correspondence with Nor
wegian seamen roaming the seven
seas. Since the war, a total of
nearly four hundred merchant YES
sells have been adopted by schools
in all parts of the country, with
mutually beneficial results.
The exchange of letters with the
youthful students back home helps
to relieve the inevitable monotony
aboard ships on long voyages.
More than that, it provides an in
innate and irreplaceable contact
with Norway. AS for the stu
dents, Mr.. Jai1re said all reports
indicated that the correspondence
served to give them fresh impulses
from the outside world and bet
ter understanding of Norwegian
shipping.
Initiative for starting the ship
adoption program is credited to
shipowner Knut Utstein Kloster,
who in turn got the idea from
Great Britain. The Committee had
established contact between so
schools and as many merchant YES
sells when the war put a stop to
further efforts. After the war the
work was resumed, again on the
initiative of Mr.. Kloster.
Window to the World
Adoption schools are located in
all parts of the country, along the
coast as well as in the very heart
of Norway. Through their cor
respondence with the seamen, stu
dents learn about the Importance
of Norwegian shipping to the ma
tional economy. Sailing data are
made part of arithmetic studies.
And much information is acquired
about economic geography and the
variety of commodities carried by
Norwegian vessels. Above all, as
one teacher expressed it, the cor
respondence has opened a window
to the rest of the world.
In the past year, considerable
number of students have been in
vited to visit their adopted ships
during calls at Norwegian ports.
And, vice versa, many crew men,
bers from adopted ships, as well
as representatives of shipping
companies, have given talks at a
number of schools.
Highly successful get-to-gethers
with teachers, followed by ship
board visits, have been arranged
in Oslo, Bergen and several other
cities.

(, Because these new fabrics sell

When nylon comes out of the
