i,~, OFFICERS OF YOUTH NARC are Nancy Eveleth, secretary; Marilyn Mounts, vice-president; and Sandy Stone, It is both a pleasure and duty for Clara Rosenberg to visit patients in local hospitals and nursing homes. She is the appointed Hospital Chairman for the ladies' auxiliary to the Veterans of World War I Madrona Barracks No. 1462, and in her official capacity she has spent several hours weekly in the Fir Lane Terrace Convalescent Center where she became interested in the life story of a colorful resident, Julia Batrin.

They were similar to the Norwegian At her mother's knee Julia learned not only the cookery but also the fashioning of the wearing apparel of the Old World. The style of dress common in the youth of her mother and her contemporaries was similar to that known to us today as "peasant costumes". Skirts were full and black and were trimmed with bands of tape which were usually red. Aprons were made of coarse white homespun brilliant with crisscross embroidery. Bodices were laced, and for parties the everyday black laces were replaced with ones of gold. Julia was wedded to a man from Serbia, and for many years the Batrins made their home in Camden Hills, a Pennsylvania village largely inhabited by Serbians with a sprinkling of Poles and Russians.
