HMIE IflllOlimATMlI WEEK
Homemakers who have qualifi
ed from home demonstration work
of the Extension Service-there
are more than 3 million of them
in this country-are celebrating
this week (May -7) as Nati^al
Home Demonstration Week*.
They seek, by acquEiinting oth
er women with its advantages, to
express their gratitude for the
great national educational pro
ject which brings to women the
latest homemaking information
without a charge. Those who art
organized in home demonstration
clubs will hold exhibits and spec
ial meetings and toms to obtain
wider recognition of problems af
fecting the rmal family and to
encourage participation of a great
er number o^ families in the ex
tension program.
During these chaotic days v^hen
the maintenance of those funda
mental principles on which om
country was founded are contsant-
ly in que^ion, we can find reas-
smance and hope in the work be
ing carried on by the womanfolks
of our farms. In every part of
this country, home demonstration
clubwomen carry on the service
which they have dedicatetf to the
promotion of all those elements
which enter into the creation and
Let us remind you of
HAIL INSURANCE
on tobacco
Now is the time to give some thought to protection of
that tobacco crop which you already have so much in.
We insure other crops, too. Several cotton losses w^ere
paid through our agency last Season.
Ask us about hail insurance on all your crops, and do
it now.

development of bettm conditions
for the people living on om farms
and in om rmal disfiricts.
Here we find American demo
cracy at its best. Here the farm
er, justly known as the backbone
of om nation, is ably reinforced
by the women folk who carry on
their community service in ways
and in areas of activity which the
busy farmer could not approach.
It is accepted without question
that the farmer is essential to our
national ecohomy. . The farmer
and his family play even a larger
role than that represented by
their production of essentials. It
is the people of our farms, and
rural areas who typify those
sound principles on which the
futme of our country rests. It is
in the home life of our farmers
that we see at its best the sound
■balance between the struggles for
the more material elements in liv
ing and the realization that life’s
greatest contentments and satis
factions are to be found in simp
ler pursuits and the expression of
religious faith in our way of life.
In promoting all those elements
which enter into the fulfillment
of their creed and the “Creation
of Better Homes Today so as to
make Better Citizens Tomorrow”
the women of the Home Demon
stration Clubs are making an in
spiring, contribution' to our Na-
tionaT v/elfare.
