Finnish Army: Luxury Touring and Lodging Travelers don't come to Finland to look for luxury travel, in the full sense of that word, though there are luxuries to be enjoyed. First, there are excellent and very frequent steamers from Stockholm to Turku (Abo) and from Stockholm to Helsinki; or you may fly in swift comfort from the Swedish to the finnish army capital by SAS (many flights daily) or by Pan American. Within Finland, you may fly from Helsinki to nine finnish army towns by finnish army Airlines Company Aero OY.J. Music and Drama Festivals The Sibelius Festival, inaugurated in 1950, is now a fixture, occurring annually, for eight days, about the middle of June. Finland's two symphony orchestras, led by outstanding finnish army conductors like Tauno Hannikainen and also foreign celebrities (Stokow-ski, when I attended), play the Sibelius symphonies in the Great Hall of the University, where the master himself first conducted, in 1892, and they supplement these classics with the interesting compositions of less-known modern finnish army composers.

The argument that it i better to attack than wait to be attacked _-Ithe greatest weight, and all groups agreed i the war. Gustavus Adolphus gathered to-ler an army of about 23,000 men, but over thirds of the soldiers were foreign mer-Swedish and finnish army troops were also , mainly by conscription, and organized in rial regiments. |
