with extension personnel.
The report of Mrs. Holtz
man was as follows:
On this, the 25th anniversary
of home demonstration club
work in Warren County, let us
take a look at some history of
the organization.
Home demonstration club
work began in this county on
August 7, 1939, under the lead
ership of the home demonstra
tion agent, Miss Marjorie
Holmes. Prior to that time, as
much as 20 years earlier, there
was some demonstration work
done in the county. This con
sisted mostly of canning clubs
held by local persons.
During the first year of club
work, eleven home demonstra
tion clubs were organized.
These were: A/ton, Areola,
Churchill, Elberon, Epworth,
Inez, Norllna, Macon, Vicks
boro, Wise and Zion. Member
ship the first year was 185.
In 1939, three 4-H clubs were
also organized. These were
Wise, Norlina and John Graham.
The program of work for the
first year was governed by re
quests. Then as now Interest
was high for foods and home
furnishings demonstrations. O,
yes, the Home Demonstration
Corner in "The Warren
Record" was begun 25 years
ago too.

Street decorations at War
rentor. for the Christmas sea
son will be in charge of the
Warrenton Woman's Club,
which plans to use live trees
in its decorations.
The decision to have the club
women in charge of the Christ
mas decorations was made at
a recent meeting of the board
of directors of the Warrenton
Merchants Association, with the
Christmas Decoration Com
mittee being represented by C.
P. Gaston. The decision was
made by the directors after
Mrs. R. B. Butler, president
of the Woman's Club, and Mrs.
W. L. Wood, a member, re
quested that the responsibility
for decorating the streets be
turned over to the Woman's
Club.
Mrs. Butler andMrs. Wood
proposed to have live trees on
i bth sides of Main Street from
I the Postofflce corner to Rod
well Hardware Store. The trees
are to be as uniform as pos
1 sible with identical lighting and
j to be spaced 30 to 40 feet
I apart. Only the large tree
i on the court house square will
| be decorated.
The club members pointed
| out that the evergreen trees
j would dry out and shed if put
up too early and proposed that
! they be installed in time to
| turn on the lights not later
j than December 11. They sug
i gested that all stores stay open
; that night if they have not al
j ready planned to do so. The
I Merchants Association is to be
I relieved of any responsibility
for the erection, maintenance
or replacement of any trees,
light bulbs or other equipment.
The board of directors ac
cepted the Woman's Club pro
posal and appropriated $300
from its budget for the Woman's
Club to carry on this work.
It was also agreed that the
$100 donation from the Town
of Warrenton would be turned
over to the Woman's Club.
A. C. Fair, president of the
Merchants Association, said
yesterday that the board calls
each merchant's attention to
the fact that the above funds
are from the budget which was
previously approved for the 1964
Christmas street decorations.
He said that this budget was
set up on the basis of each
member paying the same dues
that he was assessed in 1963.
In order to meet this com
mitment, Fair said, and for
the other phases of the pro
gram, it is important that dues
be paid without delay as the
time Is getting short and there
is much to do.
The board of directors em
phasized that any additional ex
penses in connection with the
street decorations which-the
Individual merchant wishes to
make is entirely at the dis
cretion of each individual, and
that no additional assessments
will be made by the Merchants
Association for this purpose
|this year.
Also discussed at the direc
tors meeting were plans for a
Red Tag Sales program to be
conducted in Warrenton on No
vember 27 and 21. Hie direc
tors agreed to have special
signs printed and turned over
to the merchants at the ex
pense of the Merchants Asso
ciation.
The directors also agreed to
have the Association participate
In a radio advertising program
during November and Dec
ember. During November It
was agreed tfiat five one-min
