HIT Y'ALL—Rita Vonionci right, of Dunwoody, Georgia, is staying with
Brenda Dowson, left, while on a Lion's Club exchange to Canada. Miss,
Vonland r will return to Georgia Saturday after three weeks 1Fr Canada,
"1 like it, )(all"
Georgia girl
visits Varna
BY JANE ALLAN
"It's nice, I like it, said Rita Vonland,
about Canada after her first two weeks in
' the country.
Rita, 18, is visiting .from Georgia on a
Lion's Club exchange. She is enjoying the
weather which is "nice and cool" to her,'
but the water at Lake Huron, which is now
warm by our standards, feels cold, Miss
Vonland also enjoys the way people talk:
She noticed that we end our sentences with
, "eh?" say "likely" instead of "probably"
and •"youse guys" instead of -tail."
• Canadians tease Miss Vonland about her
use of the word "Y'all" and about coming
from Jimmy Carter's home state.
• Since she is staying on the farm of
William Dowson near Varna, with Brenda
and Bonnie Dowson, the 'major differences
• she notices arc those between the farm and
• the city. Miss Vonland lives in the city of
Dunwoody in Georgia, •She enjoyed. Tor-
onto and its shopping centers and bad the
• opportunity there of riding a streetcar, and
a subviay, neither of which she had done
before. •
The group of 61 young people on Lions
exchange visits to Canada, from all over the ,
world that Miss Vonland was part of met at
St. Mary's on July 22, where they camped
for eight days, taking side trips to Niagara
Falls, Seaford', Clinton, and Goderich. In
Gtxlerich they visited the salt mine and jail,
and rode a tug boat. Each exchange person
was then taken home by a Lion's Club host
• family..
Both Miss Vonland and Brenda, Dowson
hope to go overseas next year on a similar
exchange program. Miss Dowson spent
• three weeks in Texas this summer as part
of the program.
A snowmobile was a new sight for Miss
Vonland, as in Georgia, when they get an
inch of snow they close the schools. it
starts to warm up in February there.
There is no grade thirteen in Georgia,
• and most students attend college. Summer
• jobs are a little easier to get but Miss
Vonland mentioned that ?there is no
chicken catching." Most high school
students from Georgia got to Florida in the
_spring break and Miss Vonland said "it's
"just like a big party."
Our soil, which we take, for 'granted,. is
interesting_ to Miss Vonland who is
accustomed: to "Georgia•Red Clay."
While- staying with the Dowsons Miss
Vonland has been attending ball games
and beach parties and has travelled to
Collingwood where they tried out "The
• Great Slide Ride.'": Miss Vonland said that
she is glad she came to Canada.' • .
Y'all come back now, eh?.
