' > RINGWOOD NEWS Doris Low Koty Christopher 650-9262 385-8037 4-H Ambassador From Germany Gestae Hades of Hohenlieth, West Germany, has been a' visitor in the McHenry-Ringwood area for the past two weeks. She has spent a month in Illinois as a 4-H ambassador with the International Foreign Youth Ex­ change program. While she is traveling in our country, a 4-Her from Minnesota is a guest in her home in Germany, under the same program. Gestae lives on a 300-acre pig and poultry farm in northern Germany, between the North and Baltic seas. Their family farm raises 2,200 pigs per year and has a laying flock of 900 hens. She is very knowledgeable about modern farming procedures and is interested in the no-til techniques being carried out in McHenry county. The machinery on her home farm is very much like what is used here. Because their growing season is short, they raise only short maturing crops. When asked about differences between home and the United States, she smiles and replies "It is not as hot at home!" Their climate, even though it is in the northern region, is moderated by the seas and ranges between 80 in the summer to a low of 5 in the winter. They do not have large quantities of snow. She has discovered a few exciting new foods such as tacos and chocolate chip cookies. The dietary habits of the people in the Schleswig-Holstein area include lots of fish and lamb. Upon returning home, she will begin her apprentice work in tax advising prior to attending a university. She speaks fluent English and French, in addition to high German. While in our area Gestae was able to visit numberous agricultural, historical and general interest areas - including being present for the Ringwood church chicken bar-B-Que. Before leaving our country, the entire group of 20 German Rural Youthers will visit Niagara Falls, New York City, Williamsburg and Washington D.C. She has been the guest of Lee Tomlinson of the Busy Three 4-H club. We enjoyed having Gestae with us and appreciated her help at the church. SUCCESSFUL BARBECUE With the help of many people, the Ringwood church barbecue dinner cleared a little over $1500. Con­ sidering the very hot day, the new "tent" made it fairly comfortable for diners to enjoy their meal.lt was the cooperation of many people, both customers and workers, especially the men who stood out in the hot sun to handle the cooking of the chicken, that, made the success of this dinner and it was greatly appreciated. SECRET PAL PARTY Ila Hogan, with the assistance of her daughter, Pat Parsley, entertained the UMW ladies last Thursday evening in her home. It was that time when everyone learned who their secret pal had been for the past year. However, we found out that some of the ladies were pretty good guessers and had figured out who their "pals" had been. . Paul and Althea Walkington took cousin Delta Hemeyer home to VISITOR ingfc ill Muscoda. Wis. Sunday. Delta has spent the past two weeks visiting with Paul and Althea and with Althea's sister from Woodstock. They all had a very good visit FORMER RESIDENTS VISIT Doyne and Marie Baker, former residents of Ringwood, now living in Mr. Vernon, Ind. visited in the , Ringwood area Thursday of last week. They visited with old neighbors and friends, catching up on the news of all the kids and their whereabouts. 'Twas fun reminiscing about their kids and ours and what they used to do. The Bakers were quite active with the youth group at one time. They also were interested in what the Delbys (Sally and Chris) had done with the remodeling of their former home. The day came to an end all too soon.
