President Os North Carolina Federation Os!; Home Demonstration Clubs Sends Message! On Observance Os Ninth National HD Week! ] BY MRS. CHARLES GRAHAM * President N. C. Federation of Home Demonstration Clubs f It is with a feeling of pride in our r that I greet you on the i of the 9th observance of Nat- c ional Home Demonstration Week. I 1 know you rejoice with me in this c opportunity to tell the world of what c Home Demonstration work means to you and me, to our families, to our 1 communities, to our state and nation. ' There are 47,000 of us in North t Carolina who have come to know and ( appreciate the scope of the home eco nomics information available to us ■ through the extension service. At our 1 monthly club meetings we are given 1 trained assistance and timely infor- f mation in the use of more efficient home-making methods and techniques; in food production, conservation and preparation; in the wise use of family income; in the training and guidance of children and youth; in the selection and care of clothing and household | equipment; in the development of team work in the family; and many other subjects looking toward a better life for all people. Within recent years the scope of our program has broadened to include such fields as health and safety, citi zenship, international relations, edu cation, and music. In each of these fields we have done work of far-reach ing importance. Such a program of education and service is a powerful force in the life of our State. No one will dispute the logic of our continuing theme of the week—Today’s Home Builds Tomorrow’s World.” That is another way of saying that home-builders are world builders. The home demonstration program gives us the tools and the know-how. It is our responsibility to use them so that to morrow’s world will indeed be a bet ter world.

Home Economist j What man hasn’t had a secret, or I perhaps not so secretive, yearning at some time to get into the kitchen and «be the master of some exotic and (hste-tantalizing dish. Here are some recipes suggested to you would-be chefs which you will find both prac tical and genuinely good to eat. Many a man has won fame as a cook by his mastery of the French Omelet. Egg cookery is a satisfying experience for the man cook, because most egg recipes are quick to make. The French Omelet is not only quick to prepare but is a real company show piece, as well. A must for any omelet is a heavy 8 to 10 inch skillet, which should be. lightly buttered. Combine in a bowl 2 eggs, 1 tbs. liquid, teaspoon salt, for each serving. (8 eggs are a maxi mum for an eight inch skillet.) Stir together—do not beat. Empty into heated skillet, keeping heat low to set the eggs-. Break large bubbles with the tip of a spatula—do not stir. To let the egg set, tilt the pan and lift the omelet at the edge to let any 11 ! j ’ ©OAVTON-Ul.»*.

To remove omelet from pan, grasp handle of skillet, and tilt skillet for ward. Use a spatulatto fold and roll the omelet over the filling and out onto a hot platter.

Congressman Praises Work Os HD Clubs “You are democracy in action and totalitarianism is endeavoring to des troy what you represent,” said Con gressman L. H. Fountain of the Sec ond North Carolina District, as he addressed women of Nash, Halifax, and Edgecombe Counties at their an nual district federation meeting re cently in Roanoke Rapids. “The history of home demonstration in North Carolina is a glorious story of spiritual, mental and material growth,” remarked Congressman r SEEMS everybody wants to get behind the wheel of a 1954 Buick CENTURY and drive this great performance car. We haven’t seen such interest in years. So we Buick dealers across America have arranged to offer a guest-drive to 1,500,000 people during April—through the Thrill Os The Month Club.
