It would have dis trict federal courts require—and pass upon—desegregation pro grams from state school officials within a specified time, the fed eral courts to retain jurisdiction until the programs are carried out. We cannot know, of course, to whom the Supreme Court will lis ten. If it is to the Administra tion’s brief, there is the question of whether the programs called for may not require state legisla tion as well as state administra tive action. And the federal courts can influence that only by the shadow of some ultimate invali dation. But the main stream of development is running thus far with ama^ng calm in the direc tion of reasonableness and real ism.

Our membership was increased by three, with two members reac tivated. The theme for the year was “F^ith Is A Family Affair.” This demonstration was presented by the club president, Mrs. Sam Blue, who also presented it to Culdee Circle No. 2 and the woih- en of Eureka Church.

R. McKinney. This was a special meeting in more ways than one. Mrs. McKinney has just moved into a large lovely home on Highway 1, and all the . mem bers were anxious to see the new home. We saw evidence of the work of our club as we noted the arrange ment of furniture and other in terior decorations. We are always glad to see improvements our members have made and it makes us more concerned about making improvements in our own homes. We were given two quotations: ‘‘We are as b'g as the things that make us mad” and the Indian prayer. potatoes or custards. Mrs. Cox, ipj^jg .^^g says the way she prepares themj for freezing is to boil them inj water until done, then slip the, peeling off. When cooled, they are packed in plastic bags or reg ular freezing containers and froz en. In using the freezing method you are always sure of having good potatoes on hand when needed and no worry about part of them being spoiled. If unexpected company comes for a meal the potatoes can be prepared in just a few minutes into a wonderful dessert to serve during the cold winter days or as a side dish with meats.—Mrs. Sam Boggs, publicity chairman.

We are considering a project that will benefit our community as a whole. This project will be made definite at our next meet ing. Our lesson, which was taught by means of slides and bulletins emphasized the value and import ance of a family garden. While all of our members have a garden, we do not have enough variety or the best varieties for all purposes. The bulletins, “Farm and Home Garden Manual” and “1955 Recom mended Vegetable Varieties.” will aid us in the selection of seeds and plants. We feel that we will all have better gardens and healthier families this year. -Mrs. Walter McDonald, Publici ty Chairman. Springfield Club •The Springfield Home Demon stration Club held its first meet ing of the year in the home of Mrs. Raymond Comer. The spa cious living room faces the eve ning sun and there was just enough sunlight penetrating through beautiful drapery to seem to cast a spell on a beauti ful dried flower arrangement. Mrs. Comer’s flower arrangement There was a shade of brown in the drapes that was repeated in the flower arrangement. Mrs. Comer’s flower arrangement became a conversational piece when we learned it was two years old—a Christmas present of two •years ago. Miss Pauline E. Gordon, from the, Extension Service in Raleigh, gave a demonstration on the preparation and arrangement of dried flowers, in the County Achievement Day program last November, which was enjoyed by everyone. Mrs. Comer’s arrange ment showed that club members are keeping abreast of the times. During the business session, Mrs. J. W. Thomas was reelected Family Life Leader. The demon stration on Planning and Plant ing the Home Garden was timely and also served to remind us to get our tools in good condition as garden planting time is not just around the corner—some of it, now, is straight down the row. The Springfield Club is one of the oldest clubs in the county. On November 29, the members celebrated its 25th anniversary with a silver tea. At this time two of our charter members, Mrs. J. W. Thomas and Mrs. Carl Gullege, were presented beautiful silver pins in appreciation for their faith ful service to club work.—Mrs, Allen Denny, Publicity Chairman Cranes Creek Club At the January meeting of the Cranes Creek (ilub, Mrs. Ray mond Thomas gave a very inter esting report on some frozen an- ples she had experimented with in the summer. Mrs. Thomas said she blanched them just as her freezer book instructed and this week, when she tried them in a pie, her husband remarked he would never have known it from a fresh apple pie. Another freezezr hint someone gave—and some of you perhaps already have tried—is to hull your extra pecans now and freeze them bfore they become rancid. These need no blanching—just hull and freeze. While we are on freezing, we rose, "fo the left is the kitchen, the color is white and green. Mrs. Holt is installing a hot water heater and getting more cabinets built in. From the kitchen you enter the small central hall. From there to the two bed rooms, one done in blue and one in rose. Her bath room between the bedrooms is in complete but she hopes to get that finished soon. The color will be grey tile and pine. Mrs. Holt is very active. When I went in she was working on a quilt top and had just finished a lovely crocheted tablecloth. She is looking forward to good weath er so she can get to work in her yard.—Mrs. W. D. Sellers, publici ty chairman, Cameron Club. Eureka Club Active During the year 1954, members of the Eureka Home Demonstra tion Club went all out for club ac tivities.
