Public Urged To Attend Restoration Association Meeting , Monday night, reb. 15 could be one of the most important days in the history of Perquimans County. A meeting will get un derway in the courthouse at 7:30 and the end result could be the equivalent of a new industry in our area. The meeting is being spon sored ' by the county's Restoration Association to determine the interest of everyone in Perquimans in regard to the restoring of old homes and other buildings project that could mean thousands of visitors per year. It can work! It has worked successfully in Chowan County and is just starting to work in Bertie County where a five year endeavor to restore the Hope 'House has recently been com pleted and already brought many visitors to their area. There were some in Bertie who felt it couldn't work some who though it a waste of time. Those DoeDle have now been shown they were wrong. If we have some with similar fT ideas in our county, we hope they'll think twice. We will not be just as successful - but more-so. We have scores of buildings here that the state's Department of Archives and History consider to be of tremendous value and interest economically and culturally. Our first project concerns the Newbold-White House and the Theophilus White House - a joint project that state history of ficials regard as the most im portant in North Carolina.

To foster in Perquimans County, and the surrounding area and throughout the United States a respect and reverence for the past by preserving the landmarks of the County. To carry out this end the Association will undertake programs of research, education, promotion, and preservation relating to places, objects, and buildings of historical, architectural, and aesthetic interest. And par ticularly the Association will stress through . exhibit and otherwise the methods of building and hand craftsmanship that contributed to the creation of these landmarks -i.e. car pentry, hand brickmaking. In some cases the land, building or object may be acquired by the Association through purchase or donation or be made available to the Association through loan by the owner(s). B. To receive and administer funds and properties of all kinds for the above purposes, and to that end to take and hold by bequest, devise, gift, purchase, j Mrs. Underwood Gives Home Decorating Ideas Home decorating is a major responsibility of the housewife. While shared to some extent with her husband it is her "job", states Mrs. Paige Underwood, Home Economics Extension Agent. If the job is done well she gets the credit. If it is done badly, she gets the blame. Thus it involves considerable thought, to give Mrs. Housewife the confidence that what she buys is right. Home decorating is a con tinuous process that goes on throughout the year without regard to seasonal con sideration. AH consumers are constantly on the outlook for new ideas, additions and changes. Not all rooms in the house receive the - sa me degree of decorating attention. The rooms thai the woman is most con cerned with are the rooms that are on display to friends and neighbors. These rooms include the living room, dining room and master bedroom. The woman is willing to spend more time in the decoration of these rooms as well as being more willing to spend greater sums of money. Draperies are a basic and im portant decorating item requiring decisions as to color, pattern, fabric and measurements. The selection of colors and patters are the dominant influence in the con sumers purchase of draperies for both public and private rooms. Care and ease of maintenance is the second concern since draperies are washed or cleaned only once every one or two years. Consumers are vague in their description of made-tc- measure draperies, but are more familiar with readv made draperies and District attended the Conference, including Mrs. Sylvia Winslow of Whiteston Homemaker Club. Mrs. Paige Underwood, Home Economics Agent, states that Mrs. Harrell's report gives highlights of the entire conference and especially- Foods and Nutrition and Health. Assn.

' To receive any property, real, personal, or mixed, in trust, under the terms of any deed will, deed of trust, or other trust instrument for the purposes of the corporation, and in ad ministering the same to carry out the directions and exercise the powers contained in the in strument under which the property is received, including the expenditure of the principal as well as the income for one or more of such purposes, if custom-madedraperies.Eachhas advantages as listed below: Ready-made draperies are available immediately, they can be returned if not right, the entire drapery can be seen, usually ready mades are easy care, and investment is small which means economical replacement. Custom-made draperies give a more luxurious look, made to fit exactly, better "hang" to them, wider selection of colors and patterns, and professional help is available. The definite disadvantage of custom-made draperies are: higher price tag and it takes longer for delivery. The made-to-measure drapery has some advantages as custom-made with additional advantages of lower cost and shorter delivery period. ftfcapery purchases are motivated by reading decorating magazines, shopping in department stores and . seeing friends homes. Many women feel that there are too many fabrics and patterns available which make the final decision an ex tremely difficult one. They also express difficulty in visualizing how draperies would look from seeing a small swatch and they are often unsure of what style is right for their window. If you have questions con cerning drapery selection, how to measure, rod placement, or hanging draperies, contact Mrs. Underwood at the County Office Building. A HEALTH MEASURE Senator Edward M.
