Four Medford women returning recently from travel abroad have remarked on the extreme courtesy and friendliness which they found among the people of European nations and the British Isles. Mrs. Ivah D. Murray and Miss Amy Harding are home after spending the summer in Great ' Britain, and Vwo public health nurses, Miss Mary Ellen Bell and Miss Elizabeth Mc Galllard, have also returned from abroad. Miss Bell spent a year in Europe, and Miss Mcuautard joined her for a few months. Havina heard stories iromi ; : Sunday, October 24, 1954 KEDFOBD (OnEGOl?) MAIL TRIBUNE WINS Meat, Vegetable- Diet Said Thrifty i some returning travelers of how they were ignored, rebuffed, over - charged and generally "pushed around" the four wom en all reported that they found little of this. ' Miss Harding and Mrs. Mur ray said people of the British Isles were not only very friend ly, but showed genuine appre ciation of what this country has done for Great Britain in recent years. The two women spent several days in London, visiting churches and other-famous buildings and particularly enjoyed eating at the Cheshire Cheese, cafe on Fleet street where Dickens and Samuel Johnson at . one time were customers. They visited in Cheshire, Lan cashire, Canterbury and York shire and later traveled to Scot land where they spent 16 days. They also spent some time at Nutsford, where Mrs. Murray visited relatives. Mrs. Murray remarked about the "tiny, patchwork fields" and told how war-time vegetable gardens, planted along the rail roads,, still are being cultivated. She was somewhat disappointed in Stratford-on-Avon, saying "it is much too modern" and added she was told the new Shake spearean .theater there was de signed by an American archi tect. . - Mrs. Murray reported, that she found a number of people at Stratford and other places in England who had heard of the Ashland Shakespearean festival, and were interested in the pro ductions here. The travelers found Canter bury particularly charming, but remarked on the incongruity of an ultra-modern, building, just completed by an American chain store, among - the . quaint old structures which have been in use in the towns for centuries. Miss Harding, who had trav eled in the islands in 1951, re marked on the great improve ment in living conditions for the people, and spoke of the end of food rationing, for which the people are most grateful. She spoke particularly of northern Ireland, saying there are more modern conveniences, that work ing conditions are improved and wages higher in north Ireland than when she visited the coun try before. Conditions in the southern part of Ireland, how ever, are poor in contrast, she said. The two travelers unfortun ately selected the wettest sum mer In 82 years to visit the islands and Mrs. Murray report ed that it rained all but six days of their entire stay. .They made the trip over on the Franconla, and returned on the Scythia, Miss Bell, who was on a leave- of-absence from her work as a public health nurse for Jackson county, spent last winter in Spain and part of that time worked at an orphanage. Last spring she was joined by Miss McGalliard, another public health nurse, and the two trav eled in various countries on the continent and also in England and Scotland. - Whenever possible, the two nurses visited hospitals in their travels. New York (U.PJ -Twelve mv tlonal food groups and Uncle Sam are combining forces to put tho nation on a thrifty meat and vegetable diet. Here's why. This fall, 2,000,- 00b head of grass-fed cattle will be ready for the butcher shop. This lsan, high prnttlh meat will be at bargain prices.

By their combined efforts, for the first time, the beef and veg etable industries will urge the housewife to take advantage of nutritious food buys. The U. S.
