Farm Youth Exchange delegate to Greece, speak about her experi ences and show colored slides on Greece. Donna grew up on a farm in the Boring area. She graduated from Oregon State college last spring and left during the sum mer for Greece as an exchange delegate. Since returning from Greece in November, she has made many appearances before social, civic and educational groups to relate her experiences. In Columbia county she spoke to the Scappoose and St. Helens high school students and the St. Helens and Scappoose Kiwanis club. She stayed with 19 different families in Greece and therefore had an opportunity for many pic tures of family life as well as places of interest in Greece. Several delegates are selected each year in Oregon as well as other states to go to foreign countries and live with different farm families for a period of 3 to 4 months. These delegates are chosen for their interest in this program as well as their past re cord of leadership in farm. com. munity, and social life. Foreign delegates also come to the United States for the same period of time and live with farm families. Money for this program is raised by civic groups, farm organiza tions, 4-H clubs and other inter ested in the program. Food Near Mist MIST — Sunday morning down the highway half a mile from Mist a herd of elk was seen that had come out to feed. There were 11 cows and a bull elk.

Mrs. Austin Dowling and Ber nard were in Clatskanie Friday shopping. George Jones was a Vernonia shopper Friday. Earl Knowles was home from Vernonia a day or so last week.

The county roads are closed to hauling now owing to soft ground rain soaked, snow and freezing weather. Frozen water pipes, snow and freezing weather seems about the only news these days and th? Ground Hog saw his shadow. Well we shall wait and see. Lincoln Peterson has not been feeling at all well. The Chas. Sundlands are away on a two months vacation trip to Mexico and other points of in terest. 4-H Conference Draws Leaders Leaders and junior leaders from Columbia county attended the an. nual state 4-H club leaders con ference at Oregon State college in Corvallis January 25, 26, and 27.
