Continued abnormal rainfall,

kept fire danger low causing an

announced this week.
"Normally, burning permits
are required on March 15 in

Tucker, DNR Fire Control

because of continued wet weather
the burning permit requirement

Economic reasons also figure
into delaying the fire permit

Because of a shortage of funds

The Shelton Rotary Club
recently received a letter from
Linda Mounts, daughter of Rev.
and Mrs. Horace Mounts, Shelton.
Miss Mounts is spending a
year in Germany under the
Rotary International Student
Exchange Program. She is in
Darmstadt, Germany.
Dear Rotarians,
The month of March is
already here. The snow of winter
falls on the flowers of spring.
Seems like the seasons are in
competition. Spring should soon
come out ahead.
Last week there were two
Rotary activities that I would like
to share with you. One evening
there was a special program for
two Rotary Clubs and one Lions
Club in the Hessiche
Landesmuseum. After an
introduction we heard the history
of an old violin that was made by
Antonio Stradivari, an Italian
violin-maker (1644-1737). This
violin is the oldest of its kind. The
first violinist from the Darmstadt
Symphony Orchestra played the
Stradivari violin and another
violin so that we could hear the
difference in tones. We heard
pieces by Mozart, Bach, and
Beethoven. It was a very
interesting program.
In Wiesbaden the young men's
Rotary Club and sons and
daughters of Rotarians met in a
small theater. We saw the plays
"The American Dream" and "The
Sandbox" both written by
Edward Albee. An hour of
discussion followed. The entire
group was invited to a reserved
room in a nearby hotel for coffee
and kuchen. This gave us an
opportunity to speak with several
young people from different
cities. We may meet them again in
other Rotary activities.
I must tell you about
Fasching, the celebration before
Ash Wednesday. This is the time
for feasting, dressing up in
costumes, eating and drinking and
just being merry. Some Fasching
parties and balls begin as early as
the beginning of February. The
actual Fasching days are the four
days before Ash Wednesday. In
the large cities there are parades. I
had the experience of being in
Mainz to see the seven-kilometer-
long parade. There were over
3,000 participants in the parade
of floats and bands. The streets
were colorfully decorated. Often
costumed dummies could be seen
on window sills. Streamers and
confetti filled the air. Many of the
parade watchers were also in
costumes, especially children. The
favored costumes were clowns,
princesses and cowboys. Fasching
music could always be heard.
Many times the crowds along the
streets linked arms and swayed
from right to left (or vice versa. It
is rather uncomfortable when the
people on one side of you are
going one way, the people on the
other side going the opposite way
with you caught in between!)
singing in loud voices with the
music. All in all, it was quite a
merry time.
Several class activities have
taken place in the last month. The
Eleonore school owns a large
house in the Odenwald near the
small town of Michaelbach. From
February to May, each class
spends one week there. Seventeen
girls from my class and two
teachers spent the week in
Landheim. In the mornings we
studied mathematics. In the
afternoons we took walks around
the rolling countryside. Our
longest walk was three hours.
Often the rest breaks were spent
in cafes where plenty of tea and
kuchen are found. In the evenings
we studied the history, art, and
culture of Rome in preparation
for the class trip to Rome next
September. The week was lots of
fun.
With my class I have visited an
auto factory in Russelsheim. In
Karlsruhe we visited a nuclear
center and an oil refinery. The
visitations included films,
discussions, and tours. These are
extensions to the education of the
students in our school.
I am now spending % of each
week in a kindergarten seminar. I
enjoy being with the children in
the kindergarten. Sometimes
communication is a little difficult.
German can sure get muddled
coming from the mouth of a
child. The training classes of the
seminar for studying students are
also interesting, especially the arts
and crafts class. I am only
attending this seminar until April,
but in the meanwhile, I'm
thoroughly liking the experience.
Mozart's "The Magic Flute"
was the most recent opera I have
seen. It took place in the Opera
House in Frankfurt. It was a good
production which I enjoyed
seeing.
Many greetings to all.
Most sincerely,
Linda
