Auburn Lions host students
Since July 3, the Auburn
Lions Club has been hosting
two Lions International
Youth Exchange students—
one from another province in
Canada and one from
another country.
Valerie O'Leary, 17, of St.
John, New Brunswick has
been staying with Fred and
Laura Lawrence of Auburn
and this is her second trip to
Ontario.
Huberta Miklitsch, 21, of
Vienna, Austria, has been
staying with Walter and
Nancy Marchi of R.R. 5
Goderich and this is her first
visit to Canada.
Both girls will return to
their respective homes on
August 6 with many happy
memories of their month
long stay in this area. They
have seen Canada's Won-
derland, the CN tower, the
Science Centre, Niagara
Falls and two plays, one in
Grand Bend and one in

Blyth. They have toured
Toronto, Midland, Georgian
Bay, Grand Bend, Goderich
and northern Ontario.
During the second week of
their visit, Valerie and
Huberta attended a week-
long camp in St. Marys with
50 other exchange students
from Districts A-9 and A-15.
Besides the host campers,
Valerie was the only
Canadian in the group. The
others represented all parts
of the world.
Valerie, who will be
graduating from high school
next year and plans to attend
college, says she hasn't
found a great deal of dif-
ference between Ontario and
her own province.
"I live right on the coast so
I guess the main difference
would be that I wake up to
quite a bit of early morning
fog, while here it is clear in
the mornings," she says.
Valerie's father is a Lions
Club member and he told her
about the exchange
program. She applied and
was quite surprised and
pleased when chosen to take
part. She says she has en-
joyed herself a great deal
and would like to visit
Ontario again, maybe as
soon as next year.
Huberta, an economics
student at Vienna Univer-
sity, says she finds that the
greatest difference between
Canada and her own country
is size. "Austria is a small
country with lots of moun-
tains. Everything here is so
big and flat. There is so
much space. It is immense."
She • also says that in
Austria, the main meal of the
day is eaten at noon and that
the day is broken into a very
fixed schedule for all meals
and coffee and tea hours. In
Canada, she says, there is
much more fast food and
convenience food, than in
Austria. "In Austria, our
housewives are always in the
kitchen fixing big meals. The
husbands expect it.':
Although Huberta speaks
excellent English which she
learned in school, her host
Lion, Walter March! also
happens to be a native
Austrian so the two may
converse in their own
languageas well.
Huberta's father is a Lion
and Huberta herself belongs
to the Leo Club.
Huberta says she would
like to visit Canada again
one day.
Both girls say they found
everyone to be very friendly
here. They also say that they
were kept so busy, they had
no time to become homesick.
They have made many
friends and plan to stay in
contact with them. They
conclude by saying. "We
would like to thank our host
families and all the Icons
Club members for being so
good to us."
