Six full hours each week day for thirty-six weeks ofthe year were used to warm the seats in classes and study halls for to shiver therein when the school s heating system was not working satisfactorily during the winter monthsj. Some classes were interestingg some were not. The interest depended on each student's individual taste. But all classes contributed somewhat to the store of in- formation and memories that was accumulating for fu- ture reference.

Anu Receives American-Style Education Dear Students and Teachers at Soulhwood, I'm very happy to have an occasion to thank you all for the wonderful year you gave to me. I came from Tampere in Finland where my parents were both teachers. My mother taught at a retarded ehildrenis school and father at an elementary school for students who did not attend a high school. I left at home a fifteen-year-old brother, juha, and an eight-year-old sister, jaana. Here in the U.S.A. I lived with the Marvin Putman family. My American sister Marie went to Denmark as a foreign exchange student last summer. She found many differences that a person in a strange country may meet. All her experiences helped her to understand my difficulties in getting acquainted here. I think I'm very lucky to have gone to Southwood. When I received the information that I was accepted to go there, I was dreaming I could attend a small school so that I could have a better chance to get to know all the people. I want to thank all of you students and teachers for all the kindness and helpfulness you showed to me. I'm so happy to know you gave me your friendship, and I hope it will last forever. I don it have enough words to tell you how much you all mean to me and how hard it is to say good-by. With all my love, Anu Paallysho ANU PAALLYSHO spends an evening at home with her American family-Mrs. Putman, Mr. Putman and Marie. I5
