HOMEMAKERS PLAN FAIR BOOTHS,
FALL PROJECTS AT COUNCIL MEETING
Fair plans and fall projects
were twin subjects of discussion
at last Monday’s meeting of the
Valley Homemaker’s council.
Eight club leaders already have
requested space in Quonset Hut
No. 10, where all Homemaker’s
competitive bootns will be set up.
The booth theme for each of the
clubs will be educational in na
ture, the display centering about
the helpful homemaking hints
and aids club members have
learned through the year’s work.
Miss Mary Lou Lashbrook,
home demonstration agent, has
requested that other clubs wish
ing space in Quonset Hut 10 make
„ reservations for that space at the
Extension Office at once.
Homemakers asked that next
year’s program cover six subjects,
in particular. Club members want
to learn more about making lamp
shades, making rugs, doing lea
therwork, working in ceramics,
nutrition and more about better
family relationships, with partic
ular reference to the care of chil
dren.
Miss Lashbrook said the whole
year’s program would be planned
with an eye toward learning more
efficient methods of homemaking
and housewifery.
It was decided that beginning
immediately after the coming
Matanuska Valley Fair each Fri
day will be reserved for a crafts
session in the Homemakers’
Workshop, formerly a part of the
Extension Service suite of offices.
In addition, there will be twice
monthly evening classes sched
uled in the Workshop.
