Christopher, III Greenwood County) (Editor’s Note: After spending the summer with families in Den mark as a delegate in the Inter national Farm Youth Exchange program, Dick returns home some time this month. He will he avail able for illustrated talks on his exiperiences from December 1 to February 1- Clubs and organiza tions which would like to hear him should contact county exten sion agents or L*. O.

No public funds are used— Master members, business firms, and interested organizations pro vide needed funlds. This year thie state had two delegates abroad. Exchangees from Sweden, Eng land, France and Denmark have visited in the state.) My time in Denmark has passed very fast, and the time is near when I shall start home. These four months of my life in Denmark I will never forget. The time has been filled with work and play, seeing new things, and meeting new people. Things that once were so new anid differ ent to me are now everyday things. One thing that made me realize how much I have learned since I first came to Denmark was to re visit my first host family. Now I could sit and talk with the fam ily in my limited Danish and with the help of my English-Danish dictionary. They seemed real hap py that I had learned some Daai* ish. I am now with my third and last host family. It is near the town of Skive in northern Jutland. The land here is some of the best in [Denmark. There are many good farms in this area like the one I am visiting. It is a typical Dan ish farm of about 80 acres with cows, pigs, sugar beets, and grain. This is the last harvest time of the year. Moat farmers are harv esting their sugar beets. The beets are the chief food for the cows. Both beets and beet tops are used. In fact, the beet tops make the chief silage crop. An acre of sugar beet tops has the same food value as an acre of barley. (Barley is used as a standard of comparison for other crops in Denmark.) Alter the beet tops have been cut off and made into silage, the beets are harvested. Some of the beets are banked much like pota toes since the farmer doesn’t have room for all the beets in the house. They are piled in a mound amtii covered first with straw and then soil to keep them from freez ing during the winter. The farmer makes several piles and moves a whole pile in thebeet house at one time. Then they’re fed to the animals. I guess I have been one of the really lucky IFYBs. I have now spent some time in Bent Villum- san’s home, and I read in the pa per from home that he has been in my home. Bent and I have ex perienced the complete exchange. It was quite a thrill for me, and Bent’s mother and brother, to see the picture of Bent being greeted by my father. About the same time I was being accepted into Bent’s home here in Denmark. The three IFTTEs here, Ruth Fielding from Iowa, Melba Burton from Indiana, and I are staying on farms near one another. We have been able to see and do many things together. The man in this area who -would compare with the county agent in America has car ried us to see many farms, schools, and 4-H work. We attended a district compe tition for boys and girls. The boys had plowing and milking contests while the girls were having con tests in food preparation. The con tests were held one evening on a large state farm. The girls pre pared the food in the manor house kitchen. That night we had a big dinner, at which the winners were announced. The top girls and boys will go on to an area competition. We have also had the oppor tunity to speak and show slides to a group of young people. We talked about our homee, schools, and agricultural and youth or ganizations in America. After our talks the young people asked us questions. They were very Inter ested in hearing what we had to say about our homes and way of life. The three of us believe that if the Danish people spoke English Denmark would be more like our country than any other in the world. Our job of visiting and un dierstaading the people here has been a very enjoyable one. We’d like to clasp each friendly hand we’ve met along the way And wish yon joy and happiness thru every new-born day. So, please accept our wishes, you friends, both far and ilear For healh and wealth & gladness and a Happy, bright New Year! The S. C.

MARTIN Radio and Television ADMIRAL and CAPEHART Plume 311 Newberry, S. C. To Church This GOOD BUT DEFEATED “What shall I da to inherit eternal life?”—Luke 18:18. / ^ That is at some time or other the yearning cry of every human heart. The young lawyer who came to Jesus asking that question already had the answer, according to worldly standards. * % HE WAS RICH. He had houses and lands and all the material wealth that heart could wish. How many men sell their souls for it! v HE WAS YOUNG. He had the treasure that Ponce de Leon squander ed a fortune to obtain, and that millions of aging people would “die for.” * HE WAS A RULER. He had the acclaim of the throng, who eagerly hung on his pronouncements, and to whom his word was law. Men still sacrifice all for the pride and power of it! HE WAS GOOD. All the Common dments he had “kept from his youth ff up.” Yet the rich young ruler had a sense of lack. He had not found the ultimate satisfaction, that absolute assurance which he desired. Christ was quick to sense the trouble. He knew that men’s motives determine their ends. He saw before Him a young man who worshiped his possessions, his every thought, word and deed motivated by his riches. Boldly the Master called upon him to forsake it all and put Him upon the throne of his heart. Unwilling to forsake His false gods, the young man went away hopeless. Shall we, too; search in vain for “eter- \ nal life” because we ere un- \ willing to pay the price of full surrender—to put Jesus first in our lives? :sv;'/y ' „ ///,T\NX This Religious Message Sponsored By The Following Firms: Epting Automotive Service, Inc. —Jobbers— Delco AC General Motors PHONE 924 Saluda Frozen Food Center FREEZER FOOD SERVICE 1006 Main St Phone 897 WESTERN AUTO k All New Western Auto Store New Management R.
