She made a wool suit at the workshop. “Cri5;sie was very pa* liont,” Edith Hinshaw, Iiom(? eco nomics Extension agent, reports, “so she wanted to learn how to do it right.” ( Last summer she made a com plete college wardrobe, including pant suits, skirts, bUmses, tunic.s and dresses, Miss Hinshaw adds.

But homemakers like Lei help to ; make our country one, she adds. APRON PROJECT Raising money for recreational purposes can present a problem to a small community. Unless, they come up with an unusual scheme. According to S. N. Shelton, agri- ' cultural Extension agent, Orange ^ County, members of the Cheeks Community did a survey and found aprons were in big demand. So women In the community are being trainc'd to make them. The aprons are of high quality and very durable, Shelton says, They are made for all occasions and according lo a p<*r.son’s needs, i In tact, several mpn are buying them to help keep their clothe,s neat on the job and to save on ; laundry costs. Profits from the sale of apron.s ' are being used to finance recrea- lion programs for youth, Shelton ' note.s. € Thinking Seriously About Carpeting?

Many parents have claimed their mar ried cliildren as dependents only U> -have them disallowed by IRS evon though the parent furnish ed the child's c-hief support. J. E. Wail, District Director, says that -this situation comes about when the child signs a joint return with his or her spouse. He stated that when a taxpayer files a joint return he may not be claimed as a depend ent by another regardless of who furnislKa chief support. Wall also said that the filing of a joint re- lurn becomes irrevocable after the due date for the return (April 15) has passed. He added,! however, that if a joint return te filed by a husband and wife onlj^ for the purpose of receiving a )«fund of tax with held and that neither the hus band or wifelhaf gross income of $600 Or motfe during the year, then the parent is entitled to claim his married child if he is entitled to the credit.
