lic health to home and highway
safety to developing the mind
with cultural activities such as
music and reading. Each girl

The afternoon program com-
mencing at 1:30 pm is open to
interested people, parents and
WI members.
small factories are being built
such as the one Mr. Merritt,
who is with the Intercontinental
Milling Company, was super-
intending the building of, for
producing feeds for animals
and poultry.
The women of Trinidad most-
ly make their own clothes for
they are expensive when im-
ported. "I never saw so many
materials for sale by the yard
with cotton predominating and
the colors were so gay and
colorful" said Mrs. Merritt.
The Merritts were the first
tenants in a brand new house
in the city of Port Said. "We
were fortunate for almost every
home houses at least 10 people"
joked Mrs. Merritt. "Port Said
is a busy, bustling city, but I
was not allowed to take a posi-
tion until I became a citizen—
they were saving the jobs for
their own people."
Asked about souvenirs Mrs.
Merritt said there were very
few crafts developed by the
people except woodworking and
the gathering and polishing of
shells. Most of the souvenirs
offered were imported and could
be purchased cheaper at home.
The Merritts have been living
in Exeter on Albert Street since
August.
or lilacs or mums are in
bloom,"
"poinsettias grow in profu-
sion after forming hedges
sometimes growing 10 feet high
—mostly red in color; some
are a pale green comparable
to the white poinsettias we have
at Christmas" Mrs. Merritt
said and she hurried on to say
"There are many colorful
flowering shrubs which are used
in decorations for special occa-
sions."
"The evenings are especially
delightful" enthused Mrs. Mer-
ritt. "It gets dark around six
o'clock, but the temperature
only drops a few degrees so
that one doesn't even need a
sweater."
Food in Trinidad is mostly
imported—the few native vege-
tables are coarse and starchy
and not relished by visitors to
the country. Fruits are plentiful
--there are several kinds of
bananas, some will cook and
some will not. There are lots
of mangoes growing on trees.
"We did not relish them—the
natives make jam with them but
it is very sweet—I'd much pre-
fer an apple which sells for
25 cents each there."
Mrs. Merritt noted that the
inhabitants are mostly dark-
skinned; some are negroes and
some West Indians and they
have intermarried. The f e w
white people there are usually
on a special mission.
Growing sugar cane and oil
mining are the chief sources
of income for the island. Some

branch helps make modern banking so
simple, so convenient. From your own arm-
chair, you command nearly the full range
of bank services. You can send deposits,
make withdrawals, transfer funds . . . or
handle almost any other banking busi-
ness, including some types of loans. Special
mailing forms are available. There are no
extra bank charges. At home or away, you
can count on prompt, personal attention to
all your banking needs.
