Like all returned travelers, Marjorie Sandfort has come back from a stay in Peru with many interesting stories. Miss Sandfort went down a month ago to spend three weeks with her sister, Dorothy, who is a teacher-missionary with the Methodist Board or Missions. She lives at Huancayo, and has been in Peru for 12 years. Marjorie's trip was not without its unusual and un welcome features. She had an attack of the flu shortly after arriving, which slowed down and cut short her sight-seeing plans. En route home she was caught In the airline strike and stranded in Panama, finally was able to get space on a plane to Texas, where she had not planned to go at all, and then had to travel from Texas lo southern California by bus, encountering along the way a sandstorm so violent that the bus was stalled for a time. However, none of this seems lo have really dampened Miss Sandfort's enthusiasm. Because her sister knows Peru well now, and has few language difficulties, the two did not travel as ordinary tourists. They visited schools and hos pitals, the latter being particularly of interest to the traveler since she is on the staff of a clinic here. Miss S. found con ditions considerably different than the United States; reg istered nurses arc in very short supply one hopsital with 200 beds had only six registered nurses, the remainder of the nursing staff being aides. The visitor was impressed with the fact that there is no middle class in Peru, only a few extremely wealthy families and the many very poor ones. However, she said many persons with whom she spoke told how the country is endeavoring to solve its economic problems and improve living conditions. Miss Sandfort said she was treated with friendliness and hospitality and that many of those she met would apologize for their poverty and express regret over the fact that they could not do more lo entertain their visitors. She made a railroad trip into the mountains, "marveling over the engineering feats". The traveler reports that it is forbidden lo blow horns on automobiles, so many drivers merely beat on the side of the car hoping the noise will warn those within hearing distance. Potpourri squeezed out an hour to go shopping yesterday and in the process of making a purchase, learned (we hppc) a lesson about purses. We laid our big handbag down on the counter and wandered off lo look at something several (eet away. When we came back the handbag was nowhere in sight. "Look," said Clerk Claire Proctor as she handed it back from behind the counter, "this was a lesson in shop lifting " Women, we've been told many times before, deserve lo lose their purses and money if they do silly things like that. Somehow, we never seem to break ourselves of the habit of leaving our possessions laying hither and yon, even in stores Frankness sometimes can be very Kimtising. Yesterday a certain radio announcer stumbled through a news broadcast. mispronounced a word or two and came to a dead halt once while trying to make out what came next. He finished the story and then aid "I'll be MEDFORD Dinner Honors Lee Merriman A surprise birthday u Miner was given by the Medford Lone Pine school staff and personnel in honor of their principal, Lee Merriman, at his home in Ashland March 4.
