For Your Electrical Wiring Jobs Cap RAY WELLS at CAROLINA HOME >AND AUTO SUPPLY Telephone 53 By MRS. A. T. WHITTINGTON The Ronaa Home Demonstra tion Club is closing a very suc cessful year. The women of this community really appreciate the wonderful demonstrations each month by our very capable home agents. We realize this is the only way we can go to college and be housewives at the same time. Through our teachers in the field (the Home Agents), we have been informed on "making better looking garments, meal planning, food conservation, in tenor decorating, gracious living, simple entertaining, and many other subjects which help us build better homes and communi ties through which we hope to produce better citizens for tomor row's world." Our women enjoy taking part in community projects, such as Red Cross and Cancer drives. Our most enjoyable outside ac tivity is the family we adopted in Holland. ' We mail this family two pack ages a year, one in the spring and one at Christmas time. I am enclosing a copy of a let ter from them and a picture of their family. Oosburg, Holland 7-9-49 Dear Mrs. .Whittington: We received your gift parcel and were very glad with it. We thank you so very much for your help to us. It does always good when other people sympathize with us in need. We lost all our possessions by bombardment, even money, clothes, and furniture, so with three children you can im agine what a time we had in the two winters which followed. Our little town was burnt down. No houses to live ..in, just barns and cellars. Gradually it is get ting better. Thanks to the help of America. The Dutch people are very thankful to you. Many, many thanks to the ladies of your club for the sheets, pillow cases, and wool for my sweater I was very glad with it. Very welcome also was the de licious soap and beautiful towels. What a wealth to be able to dry the children with a towel. My husband was very content with his beautiful handkerchiefs, socks, and he has just used the Yardly shaving cream. He is ex cited about such good cream as he never had any so good before. The children are happy with their candy, toys and especially the handkerchiefs as they are very difficult to become over here. We are building another hcgne but it is not yet completed. We need our money for food, clothes and taxes. Meat, cheese, coffee and rice are still on coupons here. I hope you can read my Eng lish. I learned it at school before my marriage. I was a teacher and my husband is headmaster of a small school. America must be a wonderful place, isn't it? How beautiful must be the mightly rivers, the mountains, the Niagara Falls and White House. My husband tells about it to the children in school bat he s%ys, "It must be a dream to see it really" and the farms in America must be a jewel with all the modemnites. I close in a photo of our fam ily in our room. My given name is Mary, my husband is Harry, the children are Georges, age 11, Mia, age 6, and William (Whom we call Wim), age 4. I did so appreciate the pictures of your club and of your family. Its wonderful that now our let ters come to you all so far away and brings our best wishes to all the ladies of your club and to you and your family. From the children and us.
