August 3. 1914-5 Canadians should know more about Middle East, says visitor BY DAVID SCOTT Expositor Staff From a city of 10 million to the spacious solitude of a Huron County farm, Zeynep Bulutgil of Istanbul, Turkey, found life here a little differ.. nt. Zeynep stayed with the family of Diane and Gary Elston of RR 1, Dublin for four weeks as part of a Lions International exchange pro- gram. For the 19 -year-old university student, this was her first experi- ence on a farm. "Every day was a new experience," said Zeynep. "I like it in Canada. It's quiet and different for me." She has travelled to Niagara Falls and Canada's Wonderland during her stay. Zeynep also took in a play at Stratford and went to Bingeman Park in Kitchener. There is a difference between rural life in Canada compared to Turkey. "Here, you have every - 4.4 WI: TTI READY FOR ANOTHER TRIP - This group of local and international youths are preparing for an excursion to Kitchener.

Rural life in her home country means one doesn't have the modern luxuries of cities. An observation Zeynep made GALLAGHER - RIVERS June Rivers and Dan Gallagher were married in a ceremony per- formed aboard the tourboat Skylark VIII on the Scugog River in Lindsay. A small group of friends and family were in attendance. June is the daughter of Barbara Rivers and the late Elmer Rivers of Seaforth. Dan is the - son of Henderika and Clarence Gallagher of Grafton Ontario. The Matron of Honour was Kim Hogg of Trenton, friend of the bride.

The couple honeymooned in Arkansas and will reside in Lindsay. about Canadians is that we seem uninterested in what's happening in the world, at least the Middle East. "We're close to the Middle -East. Pm concerned with what's happen- ing there and in Europe. The news here doesn't include enough infor- mation on the Middle East." Zeynep is currently studying political science at one of Turkey's like Sting, Jettuo Tull and Simple best schools - Bosphoras Univer- Minds. Rock music in Turkey is sity, the same school that Turkey mostly listened to in urban centres. Prime Minister Tansu Ciller Rural people listen to traditional attended. She's not sure whether Turkish music. There is. however, a she will pursue international rela- new blend of Westem, Turkish and tions as a major study. Unlike our system here, to enter university students must write diffi- cult entrance exams that test stu- dents on their knowledge of topics learned in school plus their applica- tion in the real world. Students prepare for this exam for their entire final year of school, said Zeynep. The Turkish woman has cleared up some misconceptions to Cana- dians about her country. "It's a beautiful country. I love it. It's between Islamic and Christian cul- tures - a really different combina- tion. People think it's like Iran. We are the only secular state with an Islamic population of 90 per cent." What are other differences between Canadian and Turidsh culture? "They like country music a lot here. I don't like it," said Zeynep, who prefers listening to rock music Eastern music called 'Arabesk' which has become popular Most of the Hollywood movies we watch are available in Turkey. "There's no demand for Turkish films. Turkish frim -makers com- plain about that." Zeynep also finds people very friendly in Canada. "When a new neighbour moves in (in Canada), everyone is interested," she said. The political science student will spend the rest of her summer vaca- tion on the southern coast of Tur- key. "The sea is beautiful. It's perfect for a holiday." Zeynep was one of 24 students from 13 countries who arrived recently for a Lions exchange trip in Canada. Vigga Lepautre Ravn of Denmark was also on the exchange and stayed with Diane Elston's brother, Tony and Sharon Martens, of Auburn. exp: tK Sommer mule NINA tAELE.
