John has purpossly avoided his
fathers Aims. 20 no won't be ae-
cused Of being an imitation. But
he knows about Barrymore. e..
and speaks glowingly Of his great
voice, his vast knowledge Of medi-
cine, law, art, etc. Some one who
had worked with the actor, told
John:
you may be Q greater actor
than your father. but you'll never
work as hard. He used to read
every book he could flnd on the
characters and eras he played. He
made huge sketches Of his COS
tunes and studied the role from
every angle"
That, John admitted. gave him
something to shoot for.

Belgians, Montanans Have Common Interest-Pea
By RHUA S4YENs Montana LYE Rsm@anMs TO Belgium

THE FIRST SEEDS of the Inter
national Farm Youth Exchange pro-
gram were planted in the minds of
Alters at the oath annual All Club
congress in Chicago in 1915. The
IFYE became a reality in 1913 when
II boys and girls, under the auspices
of the extension service of the Unit
ed States department of agriculture,
lived, worked and played with Euro
pean farm families for the summer;
and, in exchange, boys and girls
from European farms came to the
United States to observe our way of
living.
Janice Fenske from Savage has
portrayed one phase of the program
with talks on her experiences in
Sweden. Peter Gerber and Hans Butt
kofer from Switzerland have given
Montanans a chance to know the
other side of the exchange.
But have we really stopped to an
alyze what Janice has said about a
Montana farmer-stockman., 1949-12-15

If the farm has been fortunate
enough to survive the many I'M
asked-for wars which have crossed
the Belgian frontier, the buildings
will still be in a quadrangle-the
house along one side and the barns,
garages and granaries on the other
three sides.
If the buildings are relatively new,
the house is separated from the rest
of the buildings, but even so, they
are all of cement stone or brick be-
cause lumber is at a premium. Also,
the very conservative and economi-
cal Belgian uses only the more per-
manent materials available for con-
struction.
A typical farm will be in a village
with the tillable ground and pas
tureland lying to the rear. Although
81 percent of the farms are less than
IL acres and only 4 percent have
more than so acres, a farmer usually
has many tiny plots to cultivate,

houses use them in their Christ
mas decorations.
Lovely door, mante1, table and
store decorations are made by sim
ply gliding cones and a clump of
needles of fir trees as they r
taken from the tree in clusters.
We use large or small pine
cones, cones of spruce, Douglas fir
and lodgepole pines. We gather
them any time of the year, usually
when we see them falling, and
have them well in advance of the
wreath season. Mrs. L. w. Nc

Swedish household; have we tried
to understand why Peter and Hans
think differently than we about pol
itics, economics and even agricul-
ture?
The true purpose of the IFYE pro-,
gram is to promote better under
standing for world peace. Now that
we have the opportunity to learn
about other peoples-the similarities
and differences in their ways of liv-
ing-shouldn't we take advantage
of it?

SO YOU WANT to make a
wreath? Pictured above is a Christ
mas wreath made of fir boughs, or
you could use whatever evergreen
material one has at hand. This one
is made of short-length fir boughs,
wrapped with heavy string on an
eight-inch circle of quite rigid wire.
Two circles of baling wire will do
nicely.
Gather five or six pieces of
green's, cut in 5 to 9-inch lengths,
into a tuft and tie securely to wire
