Dateline Norway: Mary Ceika Ends Visit Dear Friends: I want to write you once more before I leave for the A.F.S. retreat in Hovringen and then for home! I have so much to tell you about this beautiful country and the wonderful people have met. My visit with the Monsens has been extended a few days so that I can be here for the arrival of their older daughter, Bibbi, and her family. The Monsens, like the Kaarbos, have really made me one of their family group. I have realy loved learning to take the 'phone messages for "Far," to run errands to the store, and to pour tea for the guests.

The past two days Bente and I tried to catch a little sun. We took magazines and a lunch and rowed for half an hour out to Hessen (The Horse), a small island, all rocks, out in the middle of the water. It is near the Atlantic and gets good reflections. The Norway sun has some different talents from that on the Jersey coast, and for the first time in my life I really sunburned. We had fun climbing the rocks.

I taught Bente some songs from Girl Scout camp and she is teaching me a Norwegian student song. The big event of this week was a visit from friends of the Monsens, a man and his wife, who came in their boat, a beautiful cabin cruiser called Saturn. They took Bente and me with them on the two hour trip to their summer house, and let us drive most of the way. I quickly gave Bente the wheel in the narrow places, feeling much more confident with lots of water around. The weather was perfect and we saw many points of interest -the old forts and lookout ruins of the war, and the new naval base being developed in Haakonsvenn, where there is a training school and storage for ships and ammunition.

There are huge tunnels in the mountains so that ships can be pulled right in. We also saw a place called Bukken, the Goat. There, in olden times, according to the legend, a ship was docked by the inn so that the sailors could go ashore to drink and rest. A goat, seeing the vessel; jumped from the cliff to the deck. Now on the mountain stands a statue of a big white goat.

Our host on the boat told me many stories of his experience with the Nazis. Because his summer house was the nicest in the area the German officers took over the downstairs and the family, seven in all, was crowded into three upstairs rooms. Their son was working in secret lines and they had guns hidden by the house. The father was thrown in prison, and their home, money, and possessions were all confiscated. The stories are fantastic in their horror.

I never reailzed what it was like to have that type of war memory in your own family and generation. Now this family has a beautiful summer house with gorgeous gardens, lawns, and a fountain. They also grow raspberries, currants, and gooseberries in huge patches. Yesterday I had another new experience: blueberry picking. After five soapings my hands still look permanently dyed.

Bente and I went with Eli, who lives next door, and Eli's mother. We walked and walked into the wilds of the mountains, through brush and streams and swamps. Was I ever glad that Eli had loaned me her high boots! Finally we found a great patch of berries, and came home with pails brim full. "Mon" will make jam from the berries and we'll also have blueberry pancakes. Last night I taught every one to play our American card game, Spit.

They loved the game, and the neighbors came in and began to play, too. You would really have laughed to see us. With my summer experience a almost over I want to make the most of every minute. We are to sail Aug. 14, so it will not be long before I can tell you first hand about life in Norway and, I hope, spread my enthusiasm for and belief in American Field Service.

Sincerely, MARY CEJKA. Danish Reporter Fears American Journalists Inger Lise Christensen is a veteran Danish journalist, but she admists she's scared to death of American women reporters. The reverse should be true, for Inger Lise speaks three languages, has worked for the French Agency Press and The Associated Press in Copenhagen, and has friends among the great all over the world. She's. now with a Scandinavian airline.

Reticent by nature, and completely unassuming about her own career, Inger Lise feels American women reporters are "so competent and informed they make me afraid." Uneasy Speaker The invitation to address the recent annual conclave of Theta Sigma Phi, women's honorary journalistic fraternity, overwhelmed her too. As the first woman from overseas to make the main address, she felt uneasy at being an expert on newspaper work abroad. Women in America, she thinks, have a more acute consciousness of being women, in their own right. Different Job "When they organize a business; a welfare project, an association, they organize a woman's affair. In Denmark, to parison, the women journalists, simply become members of the already-existing all-male journalists associations." Inger Lise says the apprenticeship system is a requisite for a job on a provincial paper rather than journalistic education.

The apprentice is thrown into all types of newsgathering, from deaths to needlework. Only journalistic course available, at the University of Aarhus, is given after the had at least two years apprenticeship.

TUESDAY, HOME AUGUST NEWS 16, 1960 15 World Church Council Holds Moscow Session By ANTHONY WHITE ST.

ANDREWS, Scotland (AP) The Soviet Union's leading churchman called on Christians of the world today to unite in banishing the fear of a nuclear devastation. "There has never been such a real danger of a sudden outburst of war," Patriarch Alexis of the Orthodox Church of Moscow and All Russia said in a message from Moscow to 400 churchmen from the World Council of Churches meeting here. "By united action Christians could contribute to the abolition of nuclear and other kinds of deadly weapons," Alexis said. "Despite general longing for peace there has never been on earth such an accumulation of weapons of mass destruction, the production of which absorbs man's creative forces and riches." The Patriarch, who is not attending the gathering from Protestant, Anglican and Orthodox churches in 50 nations, added that meeting the problem of general disarmament and the "day to day fight diseases hunger, poverty and depends to a great extent on united Christian action." First Time as Speaker It was first time that a leader of the Russian Orthodox Church, which is not a member of the World Council of Churches, had addressed this International Brotherhood of Non-Roman Catholic Christians. The Council's policy central committee today opened a nine-day meeting at which the question of church unity pected to be one of the major items of debate.

The Russian Church, Alexis said, "is closely following the developemnt in the movement of the divided churches. towards church unity." The committee also heard a review of developments in the Roman Catholic Church's attitude toward unity with other churches. The report said that the second Vatican Council called by Pope John XXIII was an event which, "while not dealing directly with the question of unity, is meant to have a considerable influence in the ecumenical situation." to Be Active "Such developments in the Vatican show how much has COPYCAT-Children's shoes which are copied after those worn by grownups satisfy a child's love of dressing up.

Here's the 1960 version of the shining black patent leather Mary Jane strap buttoned with double pened since the Encyclical of 1928, which contained a wholly negative interpretation of the ecumenical movement (toward unity)," the report said. "The Vatican has now decided to become active in the ecum.nical conversation. "It will no longer leave all initiative in this field to individual Roman Catholics but begin to speak and act itself in relation to other churches and 1 the ecumenical organizations." Dr. Willem Visser 'T Hooft, general secretary of the Council, warned the churchmen: "There is. a danger that in order to facilitate contacts with the Roman Catholic Church, we should give up convictions and principles which belong to the essence of our movement." 'T Hooft, a Dutch Reformed clergyman, added "we have made it abundantly clear that full unity is and must be the goal of the World Council.

We believe at the same time that there are urgent common tasks to be performed even now and that the performing of these tasks will help us to advance toward unity." a forked are he rown. treatment strap trimmed (upper left).

Man Makes Good Scents After War Training TORONTO, Ont. (AP) Gilbert J. Hackforth-Jones developed his sense of smell as a chemical expert during the second World War. Now he invents fragrances for one of England's leading perfume manufacturers. He was stationed at: a chemical defense experimental station while serving in the Royal Engineers, and was required to undergo smelling tests of various gases.

Intelligence and objectivity are the requisites for a perfumer, he says on a visit here. Chemical training and artistic interest and ability provide a suitable background, although he considers himself primarily as an artist. Takes Work Perfumes are not made by accident. A perfumer creates a fragrance in his mind, then attempts to produce it. This is no easy task.

"Any fine perfume will have at least 100 ingredients," HackforthJones says. The type of skin as well as the sort of person you are should guide the perfume you buy. People with oily skins can wear much heavier perfumes. can a person who can successfully wear exotic clothes and a lot of jewelry, he says. Choose Wisely He recommends that choose two or three scents they personally like "certainly two, a daytime fragrance and one for And perfume should not be overwheliming, he says.

The best effect may be obtained by using a matching range 0 of powder, toilet water or cologne, and perfume.
