During spring break, Iris
and Lori Merritt, daughters of
Stan and Renee. Porter tra-
velled to‘the State of Washing-
ton as exchange students. This

and Mrs. Kent at Benge, Wash.,
.while Lori had Mr. and Mrs,
Martins of Washtiicna as her
hosts,

Having spent most of their

” tives in B.C. among the moun-

tains, the girls were really
impressed with the area’ they’

visited which is a rural farming

Auxiliary

district. which exports wheat
‘and grain. The terrain, which is
about 75 miles southwest of
Spokane, is mainly rolling

‘plains which is largely eulti-

vated with grain crops,

' The girls attended the local
school there and noted that it
was really quite different from
home in that they have “closed
campus” which means that you
cannot leave the school grounds
during school hours.

Golden also trayelled to this
area as part of the exchange
program sponsored by the
Lions Club.
