Boardman Couple Enjoys Visit To Homeland By MART LEE MARLOW Mr. and Mrs. Adolf Skoubo have returned home from a three month's trip to their homeland In Denmark. They went from here to Los Angeles. Calif, to visit their son Leo. ana Jen mere iif r.tnne fur Cooenhsgen. Den mark. It was their first time back there since leaving there 37 years ago when they were married. Skoubo has a brother and sister there, and Mrs. Skou bo has a sister and two brother. Thnv reDorted that the country over there looks better than they had remembered It. Except lor a taut atmnst hidden underground shelters, there are no signs of the war. and the cities and vil lages have grown about the same as here. They were im pressed with the cleanliness of everything. No Junk piles or u'Kodv Datches. or broken down machinery around the farms, no weedy uncultivated land, or no nniPhtlv huildin? sites around the cities. Skoubo said that to drive around In the country Is almost like driving through a neat suburban area or city park. The shoulders and ditches along the roads are all neatly trimmed- by hand to look like lawns. Fields are clean and look pros- perous everywhere, even on tne larger ones, which were un broken heather 50 years ago. The old straw thatched farm build ings with timbered walls that l.Kk so interesting are fast dis appearing. Everything else is built of brick, and many of the houses are new. Farming over there, like here, Is not too prosperous for the small farmer with 20 acres or less, and he has to watch the pennies. But even there the Skoubo's often found wall to wall carpets and large oil paintings on the walls. In general, they stated, the farmers there have practically everything the farm ers here have, but on a smaller scale. They are ahead of Amer ica In crop rotation and fertil izing, but behind In kitchens and bathrooms. Hot and cold running water, and Insldo plumbing are few and far between, also labor saving electric appliances. Crops most raised are oats and barley, and beets. Very little wheat and rye is raised. They still use 200 pound grain sacks In the field. All during the Skoubo's visit there was lots of rain, and it was difficult for the farmers to get crops In. About the time the harvest was over the rains stop ped. They have four and six lane highways, and some divided roads, and practically all roads are paved, but a lot of them are narrow and crooked just as they were when developed 500 or more years ago, and city traf fic regulation, except In the lar . gest cities, is very poor. The Skoubo's returned to the United States on the Norwegian S. S. Bergen fjord. Morrow County Man Attends College In Mexico MI-XHt) cm, N 16.
