A. Strunk, Jr., at their home at 924 Flagler Avenue. Carolyn said she hadn’t seen any rain in so long she was hoping to see a good rain storm before they left for Paul's new assignment in Munich, German. They arrived in Key West sev- eral weeks ago from the Island of Rhodes off the coast of. Greece where Paul was stationed aboard the U. S. Information Agency’s floating radio statio, “Courier” where he supervised one of the most powerful radio transmitters | tr in the world. Voice of America programs are broadcast 12 hours each day in 16 different languages to countries in the Near East including the Soviet satallite countries and southern Russia. She also -said he had enjoyed their stay in Greece — both the babies were born there — although conditions were ‘‘rather primitive.” From other things she said, this is a understatement of facts. All their staples had to be ordered from Athens at least two months in advance and operishables were flown to Rhodes. “We had plenty of help and all our cooking was done on charcoal stoves,” Carolyn went on. Paul interrupted to say that Caro- lyn had enjoyed Greece because she was ‘‘adaptable.” Rhodes is about 250 miles from Athens by air and there is very little in the way of entertainment or medical facilities on the island. “We've been very lucky — none of us have had any sickness. Of course, we, had to go to Athens to wait for the birth of the children and if either of them had been seriously ill, we would have had to fly them up to Athens.” ‘Laura who is 10 months old and a Dresden china blonde, took ad- vafitage of a lull in the conversa- tion to go over to the play pen where her 4 months old brother, Chris, was cooing and playing. She stood fhere for a second, the dimpled and pointed to the ba- by saying “Waa.” this is her name for the youngster and, she seldom ‘refers to him any other | way. aes : When the family leaves later this month they will: go to Munich where Paul will supervise the mas- ter control radio facilities in that city. It will be Paul’s second tour of duty there. Before joining the U. S. overseas information program in 1950, Ta- pilloux was in commercial broad- casting in Petersburg, Virginia and also served as announcer - engi- neer for the radio station here. In the meantime, the family is having a “wonderful time” and spending a lot of time on the keys acquiring a sun tan to show off in Europe.

The countries of India, Pakistan, and Ceylon were subjects for the study. Miss Hilda Cunniff, guest spea ker, highlighted one of the sessions by giving personal accounts of ner stay in India. In vivid terms she described the abject poverty, the intense hatreds, superstitions, and ignorance of the majority of the people. Miss Cunniff explained that theirs is a different type of thinking, pointing out that this is a factor to be considered in trying to help these people. She told of the great need in these countries for better hygiene and an improved agricul- ture. . » Mrs. Harry Richardson, leader of the study, pictured the develop- ment of the religious movements and the educational progress. She explained that the churches are seeking closer co-operation with each other leading eventually to a united church for India, Pakistan and Ceylon, The missionary movement from early beginnings to the present was carefully outlined by Mrs, Merrill ‘Sands. Mrs. Sands pointed out that the Indian peoples themselves are becoming leaders in their churches but that they still need assistance. On display were objects of In- dian art and culture graciously lent by Miss Cunniff, Miss Lavina Wagner, and Mrs. Wilbur Franklin, Among these were a perpetual cal- endar, ¥ases of Jaipur art, beau- tiful tafestries, brass trays and jeweled’ boxes.
