JACKSON COUNTY WOMEN FIND HOME
DEMONSTRATION CLUBS HAVE MANY VALUES
"We^'have a million things to
do, but we wouldn't miss the club
meeting this afternoon for any
thing." This statement could have
been made by any woman belong
ing to a Home Demonstration Club,
it is an easy h^bit to form, for once
they attend, they will not want to
miss a single meeting.
Jackson County has 15 active
Home Demonstration Clubs with
a total membership of 415 women.
The Home Demonstration Clubs
meet monthly to discuss subjects
which promote higher standards
of living for the farm women and
their families. It is a democratic
organization which opens its 'doors
to any woman regardless of her
status in life. There are no initia
tion or specific rules to be follow
ed.
The programs at these meetings
are invaluable when it comes to
time saving and conserving energy.
They may be the work of a local
leader, a county program or a
meeting in which the Home Dem
onstration Agent assumes the
leadership.
The programs vary to meet the
needs of the women of the com
munity. Some of the basic topics
for the year are: focds, food
preservation, heme furnishings,
home management, home beauti
.ication, community service, fam
ily life, health, education, citizen
ship and recreation. These topics
should appeal to all homemakers.
The women have their North
Carolina Federation of Home
Demonstration Club Yearbook
which contains many democratic
principles. On the cover ot tne
Yearbook is the Hv me Demonstra
tion Club Emblem. The hearth
vre iii the center "symbolizes the
^ome and expresses the spirit of
;ne finest attributes of the home,
such as fellowsnip, hospitality
jomfort, peace and protection. The
cak leaf symbolizes strength; the
sheaf of wheat, productivity; the
Roman lamp, knowledge and oth
er attributes of a successful home.
Around tnese symbols are the
words, "Home. Family, Commu
nity", with "Co-operative Exten
sion Service" in the outside ring

benefit of the onlookers. It "was
said that only a professional could
pull the stunts he pulled, and
everyone heartily agreed. Loops,
spins, slow rolls, snaps, Red did
everything. The most thrilling
stunt was probably an outside
loop maneuvered directly over the
lield which held the crowd on
its toes until it was accomplish
ed.
Following the stunt show came
the parachute jump by Johnny
Plemmons of Marion. Plemmons
jumped from the Stearman from
approximately 1.000 feet and land

It seems that Plemmons had al
