School Delegation "When we disembarked at Bremerhaven, we were met by a small delegation from our new school. They even had a sign that read ‘Lansdale - Lebenstedt.’ "My new mother, Frau Kraatz Ulrich, my new brother, and Uncle Max; my new mother's fiance (Frau Kraatz has been a widow eight years), were all on hand to greet me . . . their new daughter. „ I didn’t know what to do when I came face to face with them, but Mutti (the name I soon learned to call Frau Kraatz, meaning mother or mom), quickly resolved by problem by throwing her arms around me as she bfegan to cry. "The three-hour trip from Bremerhaven to Salzgitter-Le-benstedt in Uncle Max’s new $4,500 car was somewhat of an ordeal. I was tired and could understand absolutely no German. I almost felt deaf and dumb — in a private world all by own. “Finally we arrived in my German home, a big sprawling steel town of 140,000, near the EastWest German border. Strangely enough, I was surprised by the new rather than the old. The shopping district in Lebenstedt is one of the most beautiful and modern I have seen. Many Impressions “In the first month and a half that I have been here I have already gained many lasting impressions. It would be impossible to tell them all but some of the highlights are the hearty handshake along with *a quick curtsy; the women street-cleaners all over town; the women chimney sweeps in their tight-fitting black uniforms with the brass buttons on their coats and wearing top hats as they ride their bicycles to and from ' work; sandals and long sweaters; delicious dark bread and plenty of fruit; dark nylons and high-heeled shoes for school, and row house apartments with flowers everywhere. “I am now eating with my fork in my left hand and my knife in the right, and I*m getting used to the tittle children saying Mutti instead of Mommy. We eat sandwiches during school (school begins early in the morning and blasts until about 1 in the after--noon, six days a week.)” ; Sandy’s parents, Don and Grace 2 (Flaugh) Baumgardner, are both e former residents of Decatur.

State Highway Check Received Week Late The Adams county highway department, running dangerously low on funds, was revitalized this morning when its quarterly state gas tax distribution check arrived more than a week late, at the office of the Adams county auditor. The county highway department operates solely on gas tax funds. Superintendent Lawrence Noll said Monday, before the check arrived, that funds on, hand totaled about $4,000, barely enough to cover the department's payroll next Monday. But the quarterly check received this morning, totaling $Bl,763.28, more than put the department on its feet.
