(Editor’s Note: Mr. and Mrs. Gary Culp, she’s the former Jennifer Sunthimer, are currently in Europe where Mr. Culp is studying at the University of Edinburgh. Edinburgh, Scotland. Mrs. Culp is the daughter of Mrs. Joe Sunthimer of Milford, and Mr. Culp is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Culp of r 1 Nappanee. He is studying to be a Methodist minister. Excerpts from their letters appear below. > In Germany September 27 Since Saturday we have been in Braunschweig, Germany . . . the country is beautiful. We especially liked the south around Mainz and Frankfurt. It was warm there and the fields rolling and colorful. We are in the Harz mountain region . . . i we find the cities fun and exciting. The villages are untouched and love-ly-some over 1,000 years old. Hand plowing and horses and cows, fewtractors here. Narrow streets; cobblestone and houses of plaster and wood; some thatched roofs and some i slate. There are market days and the farmers bring their crops and flowers to the city to sell. It is a custom to take fresh flowers to the hostess. We find the Germans friendly, but reserved, very helpful, tempermental, etc. Thursday we will leave for Edinburgh which is a very long way. We hope to arrive Sunday or Monday evening, so will drive hard. c X Scotland Octol>er 4 Finally we’re settled—even-thing is : just great and better in many as-1 perts than we expected. England and Scotland are undergoing a great inflation or depression The cost of living is just about like ours, but wages around $2.500 —$3,500 a year. Unbelievable. Sunday we went to a wonderful church service and sermon in one of the few Methodist churches here (most are Episcopal or Presbyterian.» Monday we went shopping and began to figure out what the money system is. One dollar equals seven -.hillini>, 20 shillings equals one jHHind . . . thev have so many coins, half pennv. penny, three pence, six l>ence, shilling, half crown, ten pence, paper monev and pound, etc. Edinburgh is a beautiful city, so old and stately. The very center of town is a castle set on the top of a hill with a big park around it

Letters To The Editor

October 11 Saturday we went north to Belmar Castle and another one that is Queen Elizabeth’s summer residence. She was there so we couldn’t even see the grounds. The mountains i were lovely—green on the sides, I brown on top with no trees. Gary started school and is really ! enjoying it. I must tell you a bit about the shops here. Everything is very conveniently located. But there are no supermarkets. There is a dairy, a bakery, a butcher, a fishmonger and a general store. As there are no j j large paper bags as we know them. I one must carry a shopping hag to i carry his purchases in. Vegetables j and fruits are wrapped in old news- i papers. October 28 ; Saturday morning by 8:30 we were I packed into our little VW and head- ■ ed for, no not London, bumb steer. 1 the north highlands ... we went just the perfect week end. Autumn was in full swing and although we! don’t see the full array of autumnal color as in New Jersey or home . . . | the colors were splendid and the weather just perfect. We began our early morning trip, at Stirling Castle stop off and what a bute it was. Here we could see for i miles, the river, the countryside, villages, ail in an early morning haze . . . then we were off through Sma’ Glen to stop in many small ; villages, one where we crossed a ' long foot bridge, suspension style. | and went to a dam where there was; a salmon run up what they called steps around the side of the dam. October 31 ! We are going to London this Thurs-. day, Friday. Saturday and Sunday i ... we hope to see some good j theater while there. Saturday afternoon we went to Roslin Chape'i and Roslin Castle, about | nine miles out of the city . . . the chapel was built in 1450 and such ' ; interesting history behind it. The < ! ceiling and every inch of the walls I i and pillars are all hand carved out of stone. It seems the master mason WM sent to Rome to learn the art of I carving. While he was gone a young apprentice had a dream of how the ! pillars should be done. The one the apprentice carved is simply magnif- • icent. But when the master came back and saw what the apprentice had done he got after him with a t hatchet ! (I think he must have been jealous of the wo-k of the apprenti.x- Anyway. ft*# a very beautiful ; place.
