Letter Tells Of S,A, Week-End Marylin Cook Berggrun has written her mother and father, Mr. and Mrs. A. T. Cook, from Buenos Aires, Argentina, S. A., about a week-end spent with friends in the country. “We certainly had a big week end. My back is a little sore from riding but at least I can sit down and that is better than when 1 learned to skate. We left for the estancia at 8:30 Saturday morning. We went in a small car, Mercer Bentz. It is a little larger than an Austin and uses very little fuel. We were driving along when I saw what looked like a caravan of Gyp sies stopped by the side of the road. On closer look we saw they were “gauchos,” the South Amer icans cowboys, so to speak. Really, gaucho is a race of people that you very seldom see, but they have stretched the word to mean men who tend to cattle. These men were dressed exactly as the gau chos pictured in our Spanish books at school. I was really thrilled to see them in person. Their horses were dressed in their Sunday best with silver reins and saddles. They had oxdrawn cart with a statute of the Virgin Mary in the front surrounded by flowers. The wagon was covered with furs instead of canvas. The gauchos were nice and very smart too. “Wre came to a town where the largest church in Argentina is. We took pictures of the church and even saw a baby christening inside. The main altar is lovely, far more lovely than St. Patrick’s in New York. It is a replica of the church itself and is made of gold. There are thousands of flowers and lights on it. “We got to the estancia about Program Given For Workshop The North Carolina League for ^ Nursing is sponsoring a workshop r Nov. 12 and Id, 1953, at the Hun- j combe County Medical library, Vic- 1 toria hospital, Asheville.

It is about 40 miles out of ‘ the city. The estancia is enorm- ‘ ous. The house is English style j and lovely. It had three big bed rooms, hall and bath upstairs and ! a kitchen, screened-in back porch, dining room, little room between - the kitchen and front porch, and two large bedrooms and bath ] downstairs. “The lawn was large and well kept and there was a large flower 1 garden. There are a few people living on the estancia whose fam ilies were something like ‘Squat- ; ters,' but these friends of ours let them stay and help on the farm. We had a big tea Sunday and left at 7 after a wonderful week-end.” Efficient farming means produc ing at the lowest possible cost per bushel, bale, ton, or other unit, so that the greatest net profit can be realized.
