Of Beds, Coupons, and Lemons...
Like many other house
wives, I find some of the
routine chores to be rather
boring and then, on the other
hand, I enjoy some of the
chores that most housewives
despise.
Ironing is one of the tasks
I enjoy, provided that there
is plenty of time and the pile
of laundered clothes is not
too high. Now that most gar
ments are permanent press,
I find myself spending less
and less time at the ironing
board.
an efficient way to make a
bed single-handedly. The ul
timate solution is to make
sure that there is some vol
unteer on the other side of
the bed, because two persons
can do the job in one fourth
of the time with one fourth
of the effort!
The chore I despise the
most is bed making. Perhaps
because I am small, the reach
of my arms is rather limited
and I begrudge all that wasted
time and effort spent In going
from one side of the bed to
the other and back again.
I have not managed to devise
In the kitchen, I meet minor
irritations over which I have
no control. Whenever I open
a new sack of flour from the
grocery store and start to
pour it carefully Into my kit
chen container, there is usu
ally a messy spill as the hid
den coupon suddenly emerges
from the hole in the top of
I detest manufacturers who
place coupons inside sacks of
flour and sugar, I cannot
figure out the mentality of the
executive who decided that
the housewife's bonus cou
pon should adhere to the top
slice of bacon in the packet.
Who wants a collection of
greasy coupons with an odor
of bacon?

While still on the subject of
minor irritations, how about
slices of lemon served witti

have not yet learned how to
squeeze a slice of lemon suc
cessfully. Would the profit
margin suffer so tremendous
ly if wedges of lemon were
served?

LOUISA’S
LETTER
ORDER
YOUR
RING
NOW!
YOUR HIGH SCHOOL CLASS RING
Dear Louisa,
1 am a working woman and
both my husband and I have
jobs so that our children can
live comfortably and get an
education. But it takes what
we make to buy things we
really need so we have very
few luxuries.
Now this is what burns
me up. 1 buy groceries once
a week and have to be very
careful of every dollar. We
eat ground meat and the
cheaper cuts of meat. Very
often in front of me at the
checking counter I will see
this well dressed woman
with a basket heaped high
with expensive steaks and
the finest coffee and butter
and then she pays for these
things with food stamps.
What do you think about
that are designed to help
the people who really need
food and help of other kinds.
These people give such
programs a bad name and
they should be reported to
authorities. There are a
great many hungry people in
this country and they should
be helped. The trouble lies
with the folks that adminis
ter these projects.
The most respected symbol of your educational
achievement is on display now, custom designed
for your school by John Roberts.

Community
Development
Plans Given
A stepped up effort to
assist North Carolina
communities in the develop
ment of their total resources
has been outlined in a com
prehensive educational pro
gram of the N. C. Agri
cultural Extension Service.
The effort calls for
emphasis on housing, job
training, employment, rec
reation, health and planned
use of water and land
resources.
The North Carolina State
University-based Extension
Service sets specific goals
to be reached by 1976,
largely through the coopera
tion with other planning and
developmental agencies and
groups on the local, state
and national levels.
One goal calls for in
creased public housing units
from 22,000 to 60,000 by
1976, the termination date
of the Extension Service’s
Impact '76 program.
Training programs are
planned in helping low
income families determine
alternatives available to
them to improve their living
conditions.
In the area of education
and manpower development,
the extension agency sets
forth plans to enroll 40.000
people a year in occupational
training.
Assisting communities
in planned development is
designed to contribute to
increased per capita and
median family income,
especially in economically
depressed areas.
The Impact ’ 76 program,
which was developed county
by county with the assistance
of some 10,000 Tar Heel
citizens, includes plans for
encouraging community
recreation programs for all
age groups, young and old.
Extension also outlines
plans to continue to help
local leaders and organized
groups in their efforts to
improve health programs in
North Carolina commu
nities.
The community develop
ment segment of the long
range Extension Service
program cites planned use
and development of water
and land resources as a
major priority area in the
next five years.
MINI-MELON
A horticulturist at a mid
west University has bred
a mini-watermelon called
Petite Sweet. The melon,
which weighs about eight
pounds, would be good for
small families and will fit
into most compact refrig
erators.
