It is made up mostly of vegetables, because meat is very expensive there. Usually there is some meat in every dish, though. A family puts two or three big plates in the middle, and everybody just digs in with their hands, said Wayne, "I didn't know what I was eating most of the time, but it was just delicious." He said however, that the restaurant food is really bad. It is a terrrible imitation of European food, While Wayne was in Morocco, he said he met literally thousands of American and Canadian young people, all touring around like himself, There wasn't much entertainment, although he did' go to a few movies. But they were in either Arabic or French, "Most of the time, we would just sit and talk for hours," he said, "That was about the only entertainment we had, and I seldom got tired of it." In addition to the Americans and Canadians, Wayne met kids from all over the world, lie was most impressed with the Australians. He explained that it cost them so much to get there in the first place, they always have to work, in order to make enough money to go home again, Once they go, he said, they have committed themselves for at least three years. They have to see all they are going to see in one shot, because travelling expenses are so great, most will probably never return.

"It was impossible for me to walk down the street alone, or there would be somebody right beside me, trying to sell me something," he said. French and Arabic are the main languages of the country, but many of the people know at least a little bit of English. "Anybody who wants to sell you something knows at least a few words," he said, "and the little kids pick it up like nothing." Most Moroccans are Mohammedans, but according to Wayne, custom more than religion, seems'to dominate their lives. "Everything is custom, even more than law," he said.

The two-week program, which is for children four years and up, has included such activities as woodworking, paper cutting and designing, games, singing, stories, and all sorts of arts and crafts. The Bible school has been held every night, except Saturday and Sunday with the younger children at Exeter United Church, and those nine and over at the Pen- tecostal Church. The children all gather together for general sing- songs and stories, then split into their individual classes, divided according to ages: four-year- olds; five and sixes; sevens and eights; and over nine. -Each child has a book, which he must fill with pictures, and other artifacts related to the program. There are about 36 teachers and helpers. Shirley Devries, who is one of the helpers with the four- year olds says the children really seem to enjoy the program. She added though, that it is sometimes difficult to keep the little ones still for very long. The Bible school will end tomorrow evening, with a display Of the arts and crafts, and a program of entertainment for the parents of the children par- ticipating and anyone wishing to attend. It will be held in Exeter United Church. qa atierAti We414 Miss Cecile Hall arranged and led the Christian Womens' Club song service Sunday evening assisted by seven young people from the Exeter area.
