This Week With Macon County Agents By Mrs. Florence S. Sherrill Miss Verna Stanton, of Ral eigh, assistant state home dem onstration agent, explains why we have National Home Dem onstration week. The column is given by Miss Stanton this week in the hope that rural women will listen to farm programs on their radio and read the farm magazines telling the story of ' home demonstration work all ; over the world. "Sunday. April 27, marks the opening of the Seventh Nation al Home Demonstration week, i which will be observed not only by North Carolina club women, j but also by club members all over the United States, Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. The theme for this particular week is "Today's Home Builds Tomorrow's World." It was adopted for the first special ob servance in 1046 and since it met with national approval, it has come to be accepted as the ' theme for all home demonstra I tion work. It may be that some of you I do not know why we have home demonstration week. If that's true then it is time we let you I know that the whole purpose j of setting aside the week April 27-May 3 is to tell mare people j about home demonstration work. Home demonstration work is | that part of the extension serv ice that deals with the home. I And extension work is a cooper ative project of the United States Department of Agricul ture, state colleges of agricul ture, county aijd local govern ! ments, and local organizations, i Let's look at the picture in North Carolina. There are 100 counties in the state and each one employs one or more home demonstration agents. In fact, there are 178 white home dem onstration agents and assistants workihg in the 100 counties and 54 negro home demonstration ' agents and assistants working in 50 counties. Home demonstration work is a voluntary adult education program. It is carried into the homes and communities by home demonstration agents as sisted by women who serve as voluntary local leaders. It con cerns everyone because a good home is for everybody who lives in it. It is fundamental. It; means good nourishing food on the table, health, safety, a bet ter dressed family, more attrac tive homes for comfort and happiness, good reading, an ap preciation of good music, whole some recreation, and family life, i which is stressing family re sponsibilities for building char acter. Then there is the community i side of home demonstration work. The club women's inter- ; ests have 1 advanced far beyond the four walls of the home. | They have taken th0 logical step from better homes to bet- j ter communities. They sponser ! in cooperation with other or-^ ganizations, health clinics, hot lunches in schools, better rec reation, improved church and school grounds, and community ' beautification programs, such as the model mile. Home demonstration club women are learning how to be better citizens. They are attend- I ing citizenship training schools, discussing the problems of good government and studying their responsibilities as informed and active citizens. They want to be better world citizens and their interest in building understand ing and friendship has gone in to many countries through the Letter Friend and exchange programs. Their contacts at national and international meetings with rural women from many countries has been a means of building a stronger program. I As we pause this week to take stock 01 where we are, how far we have come, and to set some . guide posts for the future, we want to keep '"loday's Home") conscious of its responsibilities in developing healthy, happy : citizens who can meet the lu i ture with courage and confi l ae uce."
