town hall lies cool and shiny, as an open newly

waslied ante-room to the town’s house, on the steps

of which the labour organizations have placed a

liuge bronze bowl, now containing flowers.

Look, there comes the first morning tram

swaying lightly through Vestervoldgade in towards

Raadliuspladsen. How little it looks in the long

perspective of the sireet which opens widely into

the square where the hundred meter high walls of

Luftning fra den lange Række indenbys Søer, der

pavement; the clock up there over the balconies at

a dizzy height suddenly thunders out he tones of

the four verses of the watchman which now fly as

an invisible flock of pigeons over the square

out over the town and liarbour, to be followed by

the ponderous boom of the hour strokes the ring of

which seems to tell of sun and air and sea.

Now the syren of a steamer in the Sound is heard,

and also this sound, whicli is typical of Copen-

hagen, seems for a moment to hover quivering

above the spire of the Raadhus tower, as if it were

the crowing of the} gilded weather cock itself.

We jump on the tram and now swing in a curve
