GIVEN NICKNAME "Already I know so much peo ple here, bubbled the blue-eyed, golden-haired Mrs. Staley, as we chatted this week. She quickly annexed the Amer ican nickname of "Nellie" and has made a whirwind conquest of the women of the community, j who note, "we love her already and think she's the sweetest thing!" ! She was a bit worried about coming to a new country, Nellie, admitted, thinking no one would be able to understand her. She had been learning English from Frank. "I pick everything fast up," she ! said, the words coming in a1 hurried tumble. Actually, the language barrier! is a very small one Nellie smiles and she isn't a stranger. "People say 'Hi there' and I say 'hi there'," Nellie beamed,1 surprised at how easy it is to be( friends with these Americans. i GETS SUNBURNED j Almost everything in her new homeland delights the merry, fun loving girl from Holland: a gift of loganberry jelly from a neigh bor; the two white kittens, Tom my and Puss, which someone has i Sivcn them; the mile nouse they've rented at Trent; the bridal shower given by the women of the community (She' was a bit dubious about that at first mention of the party for she interpreted a shower to meani a bath). i A few things she's having to get used to: the hugs which "scare me to death" and taking gas at the dentist's office . . . "You wake up and you feel so funny." Oregonians may think they're short on sunshine this summer,; but Nellie's finding it a much hotter sun than it was in Hol landin fact, she burned her head the first day she went out fishing on Dexter dam. ! As to fishing itself: "You call that fun!" she scoffed, insisting she needed "some salt to put on the fish's tails," since they wouldn't come to her and she "couldn't just sit and wait." Hereafter, Nellie says, she'll handle the boat and the others can fish, hhes an expert witn and Frank accompanied the fam i!f on an outing to Odell Lake.

Mrs. Oellcrich became a plumb er through the office door. Orig inally a school teacher, she mar ried a plumber and helped out in his office.
