wrtn fnr r arm women By VIRGINIA M. NANCE. Extension Home Economics Editor First Chsek The “exhilarating” effect of writing their first check was re cently experienced by-' A any. Wake County Home Deftfonstra tion Club women. Mrs. Myrle Swicegood, home economics itgent, first discussed the banking services available to them including the .various types of checks that are common ly used. She stressed the inf-| portance of properly stubbing the | check for future identification, j Each club woman theh “prac-, ticed” writing and stubbing a check: a first experience for many -of them. Craft Leaders > Graham County is especially proud of two young Home Dem onstration Club women that are promoting craft work in that county. These women, according to Home Economics Agent 'Nellie Carter, began learning many crafts when they were 4-H’ers. Now, they are able to help oth ers learn these skills so that they, in turn, might benefit from craft experience. Copper enameling, gimp crafts Swedish darning, and leather work are among the popular crafts in that county. Projects For The Future The Leasburg Community De velopment Group of Caswell County has few idle moments these days. Their dream of a community club house is now a part of the future. With each of their vari ous money-raising proiects, it be comes more of a reality. Miss Lillie Wise, assistant home economics agent, reports they prepared and seryed stew, pie and coffee at an auction for a profit of SSB.

REPORTS BIBIK From WASHINGTON Washington President Eisen hower’s proposed budget is most disappointing to anyone who is interested in the development of water resources in North Caro lina. It always takes some time to analyze full effect of a budget or the various activities of the Fed eral Government in each state, but it takes very little searching to see that the new budget vir tually puts a halt to the develop ment of water resources in North Carolina. If the President has his way, there will not be any money at all spent on North Carolina wa ter construction projects during the coming fiscal year. There are no funds earmarked for the ex tremely important Wilkesboro Reservoir project on the Yadkin River and the badly needed Morehe&d City project that would deepen the harbor channel to thirty-five feet. Hundreds of thousands of dol lars have been spent in survey ing, planning and engineering both these projects, and there is no doubt that they would more f i /ft’ S\ ~Na^gAff^■|^MflM/ fe|/ Old. fc -. r . ;.4; : ~ , 4 ■ MifiSupiWfc i--’'J.V ■. ““ wV Ck'*7» V -2. -. . ” * x From an old kitchen cabinet and a piece of plywood, Mr. Wright made a desk for use in their family room. The desk was painted a pale green to accom modate the color scheme in that room. The total cost of the desk, in cluding the paint was $3.75. Outstanding 4-H‘ers Four outstanding Iredell Coun ty 4-H’ers presented the program at a recent 4-H County Council meeting. Clyde Templeton, gave an in spiring report on her trip to the Canadian 4-H Club Congress. A student of home economics at the University of Maryland, Nancy Mason, compared the 4-H program of this state with the program in Maryland. The inspiring devotional was led by Sue Goforth, a freshman at Appalachian State College. And Lucile Mayes, North Caro lina’s 1958 Girls’ Home Econom ics winner, related her experien ces at the 37th National 4-H Club Congress. “It was evident in this pro gram how the lives of these 4-H Club members had been made richer and fuller as a result of the varied activities they had participated in through the 4-H work,” says Miss Doris Teeter, assistant home economics agent. Aluminum Etching Twenty-two 16-inch trays were completed in an aluminum etch ing workshop conducted by Mrs E. C. McLawhorn and Mrs. John Ives of the Harlowe Home Dem onstration Club of Carteret County. 1 These leaders had complete charge of the workshop; they or dered all of the supplies, arrang ed for a meeting place and in structed each phase of the pro cess. Their efforts were justified. “The trays reflected quality work and they were truly beau tiful,” said Mrs. Floy Garner, home economics agent. ! than pay for themselves in the i economic return they would I bring. j North Carolina is one of only • four states in which there are no ■ construction funds whatsoever | set aside for water projects, i This certainly seems unfair and j unjustified in light of the critical needs that exists for the develop ment of our water resources. To make matters worse, we are being neglected in survey funds for proposed projects as well as for construction projects. The only survey finds that were earmarked are $30,000 for the Neuse River basis and $lB,- 000 for Topsail Inlet. ! There are no funds set aside in the budget to carry on the im- I portant Cape Fear River basin survey or survey of a number of badly needed inlet projects alon" the roast.

We have a great many projects in North Carolina that will meet the requirements of these formulas and it is false economy to fad to complete them. 60 ■ SECOND MB SERMONS HHI mam FRED DODt.’P IBRHPJ TEXT: “Superior man blames himself.
