O nAkhOD SAWAFI Bangkok Jim Krause AFS to Thailand, Summer ' 65 Walk together, talk together, O ye peoples of the earth, Then and only then shall ye have peace. This quote from ancient Sanskirt writings has been adopted by the American Field Service. It truly exemplifies the spirit of the foreign exchange program. During the 1965-66 program 1 , 145 Americans were sent abroad to further this ideal. My personal experience in Thailand was one I'1l never be able to forget. Maybe this is because I had a wonderful, loving family. I think that this is one of the most important aspects of the program. The Thais tried to understand my concepts and I tried to understand theirs, The bonds that were created during that summer are deeply rooted and could never be severed, Buddhism is ingrained in the Thai people so I felt it was necessary for me to learn of their religion. I was fortunate enough to be able to participate in Buddhism as an ordained monk. This experience gave me many invaluable lessons about life. This will probably be the last time that I will be able to formally thank the local AFS chapter. Without the hundreds of people working here at home my experience abroad would not have been possible. Thank you AFS, very much Jim Krause

I came from Laos, arriving in the United States seven months ago, and I've been staying with my American family ever since. I' ve been attending Ama- dor since September and I know a lot about how the students study in High Schools in the U. S. I like the idea of American high schools, which is very good, and satisfies me too. In my country we have no choice of the subjects that we like to study. The government orders and offers the subjects to us that we have to study each year. We know what we have to study when the school year starts. One thing that is very different is that when we miss a test, we can't make it up the next day. And this thing makes me like Ameri- can high schools very much. I think the kids in any high school are almost the same. Even in my country or here: there are some who are good and some who are troublesome. I hope my stay here can lead to understanding between our two nations. -KHAMPHONE SISOUNTHONE, Age 19 Vientiame, Laos
