The Scandinavian Club of the University of Chicago gave a farewell reception to Dr. Charles Swanborg from Gothenburg, January 16, at the home of Dr. and Mrs. Young, 6848 Anthony Avenue. The reception was attended by over one hundred persons.

The club was organized last November and meets every other Monday at 4 P.M. in Lexington Hall at the University. Instructor Arnoldson of the Scandinavian Department explained the object of the club, which is to keep alive an interest in Scandinavian literature, and to afford students of Scandinavian languages an opportunity to perfect themselves in those languages.

Dr. Swanborg gave an excellent lecture on the Vikings; and read some selections from Ensign Staal's Tales, translated from Swedish.
