MEE'TING HAS ■
INTERNATIONAL Fi-AVOR ;
Food was delicious and the cos-1
tumes were unusual at the meet
ing of the Old Sparta Home
Demonstration Club. The inter
national relations chairman re
quested several months ago that
each club member study a differ
ent country.
Mis. Eugenia P. VanLanding-
ham, Edgecci.rJ.,e County’i> home

a recent club meeting each mem
ber dressed in a costume and
prepared a food dish typical of
her assigned country. They also
gave a short sketch of life in the
countries.
HELPFUL HINT
If you are one of the pers .ns
who finds it necessary to hang
some of the laundry in the bath
room, you may find this "hint ’
helpful, reports Ml'S. Martha Ad
ams, homo econo.T.ics agent.
A Richmond County homemak
er, Mrs. C. R. Williams, Jr., sug
gests a simple portable clothes
lino for use over the bathtub.
Using screen door books, attach
an “eye" to the wall at each end
of the tub. Tie the hooks to each
end of the clothes line, cut to fit
between the eyes. The line may
be hooked into place, or stored
w'hen not in use.
CONSUMER MARKETING
PROBLEMS
What are some of the main
factors affecting our choice of
food? The desirability for know
ing quality and being able to
judge quality convenience food is
important. Mrs. Martha Thamp-
son, home economics agent, says
Davidson Co>unty homemakers
have ‘ireen studying ways of be
coming informed consumers.
With around 7,^00 items on the
groceiy store shelves, the home
maker has to keep up-to-date on
new ff>od products, believes Mrs.
Here’s the Answer
Tho.T.pson.
DEALING WITH TENSION
“The ability to ovore. me oh
stacle-s and withstami flu'Uralion
—spring fiom a capacity to ac
cept normal amounts of stress
with some ability to rebound or
handle trouble," is the definition
of mental health recently given
to club members in Guilford
County by Mrs. Carolyn Johnson,
assi.stani home economics agent.
Mrs, Johnson said that some
things you can do to overcore
tension is to talk it out, escape
for awhile, work off the a-nger,
!Jive in occasionally, do some
thing for others, develop a philo
sophy of life and seek help if
necessary.
