PAGE TWO kMKfMOM TWfi WITH THE FARM WOMEN By VIRGINIA M. NANCE, Extension Home Economics Editor J Adult Leader Helps Girls Rockingham County adult 4-H leader, Mrs. P. W. Tysingger, Wil ■ liamsburg Community, recently held a project workshop for 4-H girls in the community. And what a success it turned out to be! According to Eugenia Green, assistant home demonstration, agent, 27 girls attended the work shop, each bringing something they could work on connected with their 4-H projects. Some of the girls made cook ies, some prepared a breakfast and practiced table setting, while others worked on some other phase of their projects. Mrs. Tysinger felt “it was a most enjoyable day for me and a profitable day for the girls.” Market Flourishes Despite dry weather which cut the supply of vegetables, the Home Demonstration Curb Mar ket in Carteret County did a thriving business in August, ac cording to reports from Mrs. Floy G. Garner, home demonstration agent. Mrs. Garner says that the total sales for the month were a mo mentous $3,926.04, an increase of $1,104.18 over August sales in 1958. Mrs. Beatrice Pittman was high seller again this year, with sales) of $706.00. Os this amount $329.001 was for vegetables and $377 for' seafood. According to Mrs. Gamer, the sellers are finding that homebak ed bread, cakes and pies will really sell if they're quality pro ducts and attractive in appear ance. Community Improvement The Areola Community in War ren County has been making plans for community improve ment and met as a group recent ly to exchange ideas. Home Agent Emily Ballinger reports that though attendance at the meeting was small, the group ac complished a great deal. Among the ideas presented were: restoration of the one-room school in the community and se o; pasn uoqqgiau 3unoA Jajj place near it. They felt that since there are only five or six such schools left in North Caro lina that it would be a worth- 1 while project. Other plans include beautify ing roadsides, removing an old woodshed from the back of the community church, restoring an old school building to be used as a community center, and securing speakers to come to their com munity in order to get informa tion on income-generating work in an effort to hold the young people in the community. They Live Out Os Their Garden “We live out of our garden,” exclaimed Mrs. A. W. Huff, pres ident of the Mars Hill home dem onstration club, one day as she was preparing beans to can. According to Mrs. Janie M. Ramsey, Madison Home Agent, Mrs. Huff has conserved enough vegetables for her family’s use this winter. The freezer and pan try are filled to capacity and now Calvert RESERVE U she is drying and canning to have an extra supply. She finds that home grown vegetables are cer tainly more economical for her family. j “Our children have helped in growing the garden,” says Mrs. Huff with much pride. Ann, her daughter, feels that “the lessons I have learned in gardening, weed ing, spraying and mulching have been helpful in carrying on my 4-H projects, too.” Freezing Foods Mrs. Carl Cothran, Happy Val ley home demonstration club member in Henderson County, really is putting the slogan “Each One Teach One” into practice, re ports from Kathleen C. Hodges, home agent, say. It seems that Mrs. Cothran has been sharing freezing informa tion with one of her neighbors who is a young homemaker. Since her neighbor is unable to attend home demonstration club meet ings, Mrs. Cothran takes the in formation she gets at club meet nig back home and shares it. 0} jeaiJOisiq e Suuna freeze corn without blanching it, but Mrs. Cathran has shown her the difference blanching can make in improving the flavor of ! corn and other vegetables. Now the neighbor is blanching all of i the vegetables she freezes. “We need more leaders like' !

McCREADY L —- “Rules—rules—who wants any more rules to obey;” So some of the boys and girls ' in school were saying to them-, selves one morning, as a chapel j speaker, a minister, announced his j subject, “The Three Rules for Happiness.” But still, some of the pupils were saying to themselves, if those rules would really bring happiness, they might be worth obeying. “You must keep these rules ev ery day,” the speaker declared: “don’t ever miss. “And the first rule is this — find something beautiful to look at. It may be a flower, or a pic ture: it may be the sky at the hour of sunset. Don’t stop search ing from the time you get up in | the morning—keep on till you’ve found something beautiful. “Then the second rule is—do something nice for somebody— what the Boy Scouts call a goodj turn. It may be helping Mother j with the dishes; it may be acting l as a friend to that bashful boy or' We'd like you to test drive one of oOr powerful new International V-8 trucks.

What ever it is, don’t let the day go by without doing something that will make somebody else happy. “And last, learn something by heart —a few lines of poetry, a verse from the Bible. Memorize something each day that is worth memorizing.” The speaker told of other boys and girls who had found happi ness by keeping the three rules. Then he sa' i “Now I want to find out how you find happiness by keeping them. When you see me on the street, or anywhere, tell me about this.” A few days later, as he was walking near the edge of town, he was hailed by a girl of about twelve. “I’m keeping the three rules,” she called across the street. “Are they bringing you happi ness?” the minister asked, draw ing near the front yard of her home where she was standing. “Yes, Sir,” she answered.

Crane in for a POWER trial, today! she seemed to hesitate a little. “What’s the trouble?” he in quired sympathetically. “Why—today .1 haven’t yet kept the third rule,” she replied. “You’ve kept the first one— found something beautiful?” “Yes, Sir,” she replied—“that rose,” and she pointed to a bush, now withered in part by the chill of the autumn, but bearing aloft one gorgeous red flower. “And you did something nice for somebody?” “Yes,” she replied with enthus iasm—“l gave an old lady some vinegar that was having fits.” The minister smiled a kindly whimsical smile. “You say the vinegar was having fits?” “Oh no—the old lady was hav ing fits—l gave the vinegar to her.” “Well,” said the preacher, “I never knew before that vinegar was what old ladies needed when they were having fits. But if it is, you did a kindly deed. And now about that third rule—have" you a Bible in the house?” The girl sprang up the porch steps three at a time and quick ly returned. The minister open ed the volume at the fifth chap ter of St. Matthew’s Gospel and read the first verse. It told how Jesus, seeing a multitude of peo ple and realizing they all wanted to know how to be happy, went up on a mountainside one day and revealed the road to the highest and lasting happiness enjoyed by those whom He calls “blessed.” The school girl learned that verse. • ' And millions, through the cen turies, who have learned and liv ed the verses that follow have found the blessedness of serenity and peace.
