The evening speaker was then in troduced by Miss Lena Janes, pro gram chairman. Mrs. Dixon, who! on “The Activities and Free-j dom of German Women Compared to. American Women,” told those attend-1 ing that women in Germany worked 1 so hard, that their days made ours seem days Os leisure. She said they 1 pulled carts, while the men either ■ walked behind or rode in wagons. “When we first arrived in Germany, 1 we would see Germans going through . the woodlands carrying bags. We had no idea what they were gathering,’ Mrs. Dixon declared. “The women wore skirts above their knees and used no make-up. From lack of calories, . some form of breaking out occurred , as all foods were given to the chil- ■ dren,” she said. One of the customs of the German people, the speaker revealed, was that > of women sitting on one side of the ; church while the men occupied the i other side. “The German girls want- v ed to talk to we American women and I some of them could speak English,” she said. “They displayed ignorance concerning the happenings of other countries and being raised during the Hitler Regime, they just couldn’t un derstand why we Americans were , : I C THAMJUIS\ ro* m JS*y\ Space Maker | W REFRIGERATOR I MORE than 8 to ft of rofrtgoratod food ttorago tpato. than 14 tq ft of tholf area. v if MORI food-*orago apace in loot floor space. j. £YISfMsMa 8-t+H G-t toll* for lon than many T-to-6 j; ! %- models/ Why pay more for fo«7 CONVENIENT TERMS j j Sit IT TODAY- QUINN FURNITURE COMPANY EDENTON, N.

We I . found a very good dressmaker and had I ■ the changes made.” She stated that J . even the wealthiest German families I i were forced to sell their most valuable • belongings and some of their articles ■ were the “most beautiful* I have ever seen,” she declared. "Peddling became , a nuisance and we halted to see Sat | urday mornings come as somebody was knocking all day long to either peddle or beg. We were allowed to buy only SIOO worth of food at the commissary, to have fed all that asked for food would have been out of the question.” In conclusion, Mrs. Dixon stated that she gave the picture of Germany only as she saw it during her stay | there, but that she had heard from j friends who said that conditions there | had improved considerably. She re 'marked that she would like to return Ito Germany again under better cir cumstances.
