Mpounty Home Clubs Tell Of Activities This being Home Demonstra tion Week we would like to re port tome of the activities and ; accomplishments of the U Home 1 Demonstration Club* in Watauga 1 County. j We feel that we h%ve learned and accomplished much from the 1 different demonstrations we have had in the past year. The clubs as 1 a whole have helped is all the drives, such as T. B., cancer, polio and Red Cross. Most of the clubs contri buted to the Nurses Home in Boone which was recently built. We raise money for these drives in various ways, by selling greeting cards, making quilts for sale, by putting our birthday of ferings in piggy banks, giving plays, selling refreshments at the plays and by having covered dish suppers. ' Another very important thing some of our members do is to five blood each time the blood mobile is in town. There is one club that furnish es lunch each year for a needy child in the school lunchroom at the rate of $36.00 per year. Each year some of the clubs have booths at the County Fair and some of the members serve as superintendents at the fair. Another thing some of our clubs enjoyed doing was enter taining two ladies from Turkey, and then we had two gentelemen from Iran who visited some of the clubs. Another thing we do is to re member the sick in the commun ity and hospitals with get well cards and flowers. Most of the clubs have contri buted food, clothing and house hold items to families who have lost their home by fire. There is one club who fixed 10 package* for needy families at Christmas. Some of the clubs sang Christ mas Carols to the shut-ins. One club helped an aged sick man with bed linen and other items for the home. We always have good attend ance at the county council meet ings. Also the project leaders school. Some of these project leaders have conducted meeting* in the different clubs in the absence of the borne tgeaU - Most of the 18 clubs are raising money to send a member to FarnT and Home Week.
