Phone SP 2-6428 AFS Student Returning From Norway on Sunday Miss Roberta Sleeter, Med - ford High school student who spent the past several weeks living with a Norwegian fam ily at a summer "home, will arrive back in Medford Sun day, September 7. Miss Sleeter, daughter of Mrs. Rob ert W. Sleeter, 39 South Ber keley way, made the trip "to Norway under the American Field service program. She is expected in New York Thurs day, will cross the continent by trainand fly from Port land to Medford. Excerpts from the student's recent letters follow: I guess I haven't made it too clear about my surround ings, family, etc., so I'll try to describe them. Mr. and Mrs. Haneborg are both very nice. He's the rugged type, while she is very lady-like. She has arthritis quite badly, and often has to spend about half the day in bed. Ragnhild will soon be 14. She's quite a . tomboy, very much like I used to be. Inger, who is 12, is the only one who doesn't speak English, but she has been the one who has taught me the most Nor wegian. She's the cuddly type and sometimes walks up to me and puts her arms around me. She's also loaded with patience. Evy is very strong and a good swimmer. We get along very well although lately her interests have been centered on Rayder, the boy who owns the boat. Norwegians are very shy as far as relations with the opposite sex are con cerned and I love to tease her. This island is beautiful and the country is varied as far as landscape goes. Down by the shore and around our cabin it is typical coastal country. It is very rocky, with several pine trees and small bushes. However, about one-half mile inland it becomes covered with big evergreen trees and when I walk through, it is like the forests at home would be if there were no lumber mills and logging trucks. It is dense and very green and beautiful. The family owns a car, a 1957 Opel. It's Ger man, made by a plant of Gen eral Motors and is comparable to the Chevrolet. Shops .Small Norwegian stores are ac tually just small shops, and to look at the town from . a distance you wouldn't eveq know there were shops be cause they are very few big display windows and no signs that stick out from the roof telling what store it is. Inside, the shops aren't much differ ent than any place else. You asked about my laun dry. As you know, there is no electricity or running water, so not much washing is done. My clothes for the most part are just getting a little grimier every day. When I finally do wash, I don't know how I'll ever iron. I guess I have the right clothes. If I had it to do over, I'd have brought more old sport clothes such as shorts and jeans and sweat shirts and fewer dresses, but I have plenty to last me. I'm gradually learning a little more Norwegian, but I definitely let Evy do all my Deep cleans without t drying 2 DOROTHY GRAY CLEANSING CREAMS ANNUAL SALE 12 oz. . . 6 oz. dry skin CLEANSER-. .lubricates as it liquefies.

There is no re frigerator, only a cellar that keeps food pretty well. There's also grocery delivery, so we don't have to keep a lot of food stored in it. Pace Is Slow Life is continuing in the same slow, even pace. Last Tuesday a friend of Evy's came to stay with us, and she's leaving tomorrow. She was an AFS student at Palo Alto during the year 1956-57. Her name is Greta Andersen and though she is nearly 20, she certainly doesn't look or act any older than Evy or I. However, I've noticed that the kids here grow up slower than at home. Saturday morning Tom Se gall, the American AFSer and his Norwegian brother, Arne, came over to see us. The Haneborgs were planning to go over to the island in the new boat on a picnic, so we took them with us. It was lots of fun. First we went swim ming, briefly, in the icy water, then spent the after noon lying around talking, eating and listening to the radio. When we came back they stayed for dinner and didn't leave till around 8:30 p.m. Arne was an AFS stu dent the same year Greta was, so they knew each other. I knew Tom from the boat. I'm peeling all over, so will have to start all over again to get a tan. It's very mad dening. The time is going very fast for me. I rarely get home sick, although I miss every one, and hamburgers, very much. August 4 Thought I'd better keep you posted as to future events. August 16, Evy and I will leave Oslo to go up in the mountains for a week with all the other AFSers. I gather that we'll catch the train from Arendal on the 15th to go jto Oslo. Then on the 22nd we go from the mountains to Oslo and will have all the next day .for shopping and sightseeing. Early in the morning of the 24th we'll leave Oslo, arriving in Rotter dam the next day. Evy and I ,went to town a few days ago and I looked around trying to find a birth day present for Ronald, but the toys here are the same as those at home. - It's been pouring all week, although that doesn't keep us inside. I decided however, that when we go to Arendal next I'm going to break down and buy a suit of oilskins That's a good name for the big yellow raincoats, but at least vthey keep out the rain, You should see the huckle berries that, grow around here. They're all over, just like weeds, and grow ' really as big as marbles. We go out and pick them, then smother them with powdered sugar for dinner. They're very good. There are also lots of cherry trees and lots of raspberries. August 1L The weather finally decided to clear up and it's been beau tiful the last three days. A few nights ago a group of us went out fishing and didn't get-in until 2:30.

Shady Cove. Mrs. Edward Houston and Mrs. Edgar Vanderlip are in charge of refreshments. Mrs. William Shepherd will give a report on the Oregon Federation of Garden clubs' convention. Plans for the fall flower show will be discussed. ating the way they fished. A real ' bright light was hung over the end of the boat so that we could see down into the water to the bottom-we were in quite shallow water. Then if a crab comes along you pick him up with a spe cial net. We didn't get any, but we did : get Ijwo lobsters, which is very illegal at this time of year. We also caught three cod by spear fishing. Evy said that this method of fishing is very typical of Nor wegian fishing. : We had a "very typical" Norwegian dinner last night which I must describe. It was really different than any thing I've had yet It con sisted of pickled herring, a type of dilled potatoes, chop ped cucumber, tomatoes and onions, and pickled- beets. Everything was cold. We then mixed a lot of mayonnaise over it all. It was delicious, but I wouldn't want to eat it very often. , It makes me sad to think that after today, I'll only "have three full days left. here. It seems like there are still so many things left to dp. :.; jk RESENTS A SCENE FROM if I i f - , ' ' - ,"" k'i I : 8.95 r Hilltoppers To Hold Hilltoppers Square Dance club will hold a dance Sat urday, September 6, at the old Wagner creek school, two miles north of Talent on Wagner Creek road.
