Stu dents in each of the more than 800 communities served by Con solidated were eligible to com pete, but only one applicant could represent each school.

The visitors, who left Saturday for Oregon State college, Corvallis, where they have been attending special classes, were Miss Louise Homminger, Linz, Austria, and Miss Truida Duyvendak, The Hague, Netherlands. The two women are part of a I group of European extension leaders spending several weeks in this country. Miss Duyvendak, who heads extension work for city women in her country, states that "a higher level of living and edu cation designed to make the family's money go further" are the aims of the extension pro gram in her nation. She pointed out that "money is scarce" in the Netherlands since the nation lost many colonies, and that colonies, and that families must economize in as many ways as possible. The extension head stated mat under the extension pro gram in her country courses are given in cooking, both elemen tary and advanced, and in -sew ing, particularly in the renova tion of used clothing. Courses in the education of children are also given. The courses are partly under written with government funds, but those enrolled also pay small fees, she said. In addition to the classes, organized alone the line of adult education class es in this county rather than Oregon's extension program written material is provided, Miss Duyvendak said. Those en rolled must be at least 21 years old, and courses cannot be given unless at least 15 people enroll. Miss Duyvendak is particu larly interested in the fashion in which lay extension leaders are trained in this country. This part of the program is yet to be work ed out in The Netherlands, and she is of the opinion it will be most helpful. Classes for blind women are also new to the pro gram. Ulike Miss Duyvendak, Miss Homminger works with rural residents only. She explained that the extension program in her country was divided up into three classifications, information and consultation, organized class es and youth work similar to America's 4-H program, except it is for the 16 to 25 age group. In addition to being trained in cooking, sewing and youth work, Miss Homminger also is trained to give advice on gardening problems. She explained that this is because the women of Austria do most of the garden ing. Health and nutrition Infor mation is also given, she said. Actually, the average Austrian family raises most of its food, she said, and buys only such staples as sugar, salt, coffee and tea. In Austria the women have meetings similar to unit meetings held here, she said, bringing lunches to be eaten at noon. While here Miss Duyvendak was first a guest of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Conger and later of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Heller. Miss Homminger was a guest of Mr. ani Mrs. Martin Heitkamp and Mr. and Mrs. C. Schempp. The group of visitors leaves Oregon for Oklahoma, West Vir ginia and Washington, D.C. Speaker Announced For Weavers Guild Rogue Valley Weavers guild will meet at the home of Mrs. M. A.
