The Linaik iradliuiaites rite From Carat Butter, '49, XVorked for 7 months at Queens Hospital in Honolulu and from there went to Guam. Stayed there for 19 months working in a tuber- culosis unit. The first part of April 1954, my girl friend and I left Guam and toured the Orient for 2 months. VVe went to Bangkok, Thialand and then into India as far as New Delhi. Returned to Hongkong and then went to japan for 3 weeks. VVe had a wonderful vacation. How- ever it seems good to be back in the states again. From Iona Johnccheck Trench, '42, Since 1947, when I was in Rochester doing my field work in Public Health so many things have happened I hardly know where to begin. I graduated from the University of Minnesota with a B.S. degree and major in Public Health Nursing that same year. The following two years I worked as public health nurse at the St. Cloud State Teachers College. In june of 1949, Robert and I were married and we lived in Minneapolis for two years, where I went to work for the Board of Education in the Minneapolis public schools. VVe have been in California a year and a half now and my husband is an attorney for the county of Los Angeles. just recently we have bought a new home in Pomona which we will move into in November. From Barbara Martin Short, '52, I came to Alaska as a bride and have been here now for seven months. My husband is a commercial fisherman and also owns a part- nership in a summer resort on Baranof Island. Our home is in a small bay called Warm Springs. At the head of the bay is a large waterfall from which we obtain our own electrical power. Further inland are several mineral springs which we tap for our hot water supply. A fourth mile up a mountain there is a small lake fthree miles longj which is fed by glaciers and mountain streams and in it is an over abundance of trout. A thirty or forty fish catch for an evening is not unusual. We are completely surrounded by mountains and forests except for the mouth of the bay. The nearest town is Sitka which we have to reach by boat or plane as the overland route is impassable. Adjusting from San Francisco to our small settle- ment fa permanent population of nine humans, two dogs, one cat and countless seagullsD seemed very hard at first, but now we are all engaged in various hobbies and are busy during the day doing innumerable tasks around the resort. Last summer I learned how to live in a 10' by 7' space the size of our boats cabin-that means cooking, sleeping and living quarters. I also learned to run the boat and Hshing gear fairly well, which helps as our work days are fourteen to sixteen hours long in the summer time. I also had to learn how to make bread as up in these north woods bakerys are few and far between so we have to have bread baking days. As for my nursing experiences they are numerous. I am not working in a hospital but I have had plenty of opportunity to practice nursing. Have cared for patients with cuts and deeper wounds, have given post natal care to newborn infants, pre-natal instructions to several indian mothers, have assisted hshermen in working out ulcer diets. As you might expect the hospitals up here are sorely in need of nurses. Greetings to all my friends in Rochester. From Faith lflfchingcr, '48, I am with the 98th General Hospital in Neubrucke, Germany. Have been here since April 1954. Our hospital is located in the French zone of Germany about a half a mile from the Saar border. We are the main hospital of Europe therefore we are busy. Patients are brought in every day by train and the serious gases arrive by heliocopter, which lands right at our front oor. Neubrucke, I don't think you will find it on the map. It has a couple of houses, a railroad station and several beer taverns. There is no danger of getting lost rather the danger of passing through it without knowing it. Neubrucke is 10 miles from the nearest army installation thus we are quite isolated. XVe have to go there to do our shopping but it doesn't have much to offer. Since my car arrived I have visited some of the well known places. I' here are some interesting places near here. Berncastle, known for its gingerbread houses, Trier with its old ruins, and the cathedral that has the crypt of Christ. Both Frankfurt and Wiesbaden are modern and are good places for shopping. The country of Isuxenbourg is about 2 hours driving time from here. I visited the American cemetery where General Patton is buried. It IS a beautiful place. Took a cruise up the Rhine River and saw all the old castles and the famed Loreli rock. Have also been along the Mozale River. Another place which is close is Idar-Oberstien which are like our twin cities. There is a church which has been carved in the mountain. As the story goes one brother killed the other over the love of a woman. For his pentance he was to carve the church. After a time the town people helped him and after he passed away they completed it. The first long trip I took was to Berlin. Visited the east as well as the West sector. The people are happier on the west side. In that area reconstruction has been carried out throughout the city but on the east side the reconstruction has mainly been concentrated to one street Stalin Allee composed mainly of new communist build- in s. g Last September I went to Italy on a 14 day tour. The tour left from Munich, on to Austria and then to Italy. The first stop was Florence. Before I go on let me say that on this tour I saw cathedrals, churches, statues, monuments, paintings, art work, architecture and scenery that is so beautiful one cannot describe it. From Florence I went to Pisa, then to Leghorn and down the sea coast to Rome. In Rome I saw St. Peters, the Vatican City, Pantheon, Forum, Collosseum, Fountain of Trevi fThree Coins In The Fountatnj. Rome has ancient, medieval and modern parts. From Rome to Pompei where I saw the excavations. On to Naples and along the famed Amalfi drive with its 2,000 curves, to Sorrento to Capri and on to Assisi, to Balogna where I took the train to Venice, where it was nice and peaceful, no cars, no bikes just gondolas. I covered over 2,000 miles, ate many interesting foods, and saw a bit of the life in each place. Since that long trip I have been to the Black Forest. Drove to Baden Baden the famous health center and it is gorgeous. Visited at Stuttgart and Heidelburg. Next spring during my leave I plan to go to Holland and then up into the Scandinavian countries, if my finances hold out. Everything is too expensive. This has caught you all up on my jaunting.
