Allyson Anglin Returns From Mexico ■ e Allyson Anglin, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Leo Anglin of r 1 Milford, arrived home Tuesday after spending a month in Mexico with a group of students from Manchester college. Allyson, a junior at the college, took the trip as part of her college credit. In a letter written to her parents on January 12 she states, “The River, was fun and the jungle was beautiful. We camped on natural beaches on the river on both the Mexican and Guatemalan sides . . .” She continued. “Mr. Adams (the college professor who accompanied them) is planning two more excursions for us. First, Wednesday. Jan. 14, we are taking a four day camping trip to the Yucatan to explore some Mayan ruins there. After that, we're going for a -day on the beach at the Gulf of Mexico. “The town of Villahermoss is really disappointing. There are no leather goods or silver jewelry here because it isn’t near the areas where they are prevalent. Also, they don’t import them here because very few tourists ever come here . . . “The last two days of the trip will be spent at Mexico City. There we ll visit the museum, it’s about the largest in the world, and I hope to see a bullfight.” Wawasee Adult Farmers To Meet Tuesday At 7:30 By ED WASHLER The second meeting of the Wawasee high school adult farmers class will be held on Monday, Feb. 2, at 7:30 p.m. in ■the Wawasee vocational agriculture room.

High school and college students may now enroll for Study-Travel courses for the 1970 summer, with World Academy, Cincinnati. Ohio.

World Academy offers nineteen different study-travel courses in Western Europe. Eastern Europe and Israel. The most popular course offered is Russian and Eastern European Politics, for 40 days, from July 22 to August 30 in six Eastern European countries.

Dressing Children For Cold Weather LAFAYETTE — Be sure your child stays warm during cold weather by dressing him in layers of clothes, such as a Tshirt, a shirt, a wool sweater, and a jacket. This layering works like insulation, says Billie Ellsworth, extension clothing and textile specialist at Purdue university. Heavy opaque and textured pantyhose are fashionable as well as practical for the school age girl. However, in extremely cold weather long pants provide more warmth than pantyhose. Check with your child’s teacher regarding school dress policy. Some school systems do not allow girls to wear long pants .in the classroom, and prefer that they be worn under dresses and removed during school hours. Others would rather have girls wear long pants instead of dresses whenever the mercury dips below a certain point. Boys will be warmer if they wear themol underwear during very cold weather. Remember there is a difference in warmth of trouser fabrics. For example, corduroy trousers are often warmer than denim jeans. During cold wet weather, both boys and girls can wear their regular clothes topped with a sweater and a water repellent jacket for added warmth. Hooded jackets can be a very good investment. They help insure that your child’s head will be covered. In very cold weather, it's a good idea to have him wear a wool scarf or cap under the hood when playing outdoors. For the pre-schooler, mittens are warmer, than gloves as well as easier to put on. If possible, have your child wear waterproof mittens over wool ones when playing in the snow. It’s a good idea to have extra mittens, gloves, caps, and scarves on hand in case they are wet after playing or should be lost. They are inexpensive and can be passed to other children in the family. Regular school shoes inside rubber boots are generally the best for boys as well as girls. They keep feet warm and dry. but

behind the “Iron Curtain” in Communist countries. The main emphasis of the course will be historical development, present economic policies and the international relations of the U.S.S.R. and its satellites. Lectures, seminars and class discussions will be conducted in the forenoons Monday through Friday by English speaking European instructors. Tours and field trips will be in the afternoons to historic sites, government buildings, museums, memorials, art centers and embassies. Operas, dramas and social affairs are scheduled for the evenings. Mr. Holycross. Group Advisor for the Eastern European course, says that today the sending and receiving of mail between students, parents, and friends is now easily accessible in the Communist countries. Students and teachers are now permitted to take colored camera slides, movies and make

should be removed in the classroom. Shoe boots are popular among the girls, but if worn all day, feet perspire and are likely to chill when back outside. Be sure your child’s cold weather clothes are easy to manage so he’ll wear them, says the specialist. Jacket zippers that don’t zip and boots that are too tight are frustrating. If you notice that zippers are beginning to stick, rub them with a candle to help them slide more easily. A long cord extending from one mitten to the other through the coat sleeves will help small children keep track of their mittens. Remember to dress iyour child according to the temperature and the wind, cautions the specialist. Children are active and can get too warm and perspire if they are dressed too warmly. This may cause them to chill later.
