•■This i? an all-out war work
that we do, for a just peace,”
was the theme of the 1942 Home
Demonstration Association, as
expressed by its president, Mrs.
W G. Kennedy of Muleshoe. She
urged the farm women to observe
the Victory Demonstrators’ pledge
and help prevent inflation by
| buying ohly necessities and using
the money accumulated from
higher farm prices to buy war
bonds and stamps.
The association held its annual
convention at Fort V\ orth Aug.
18-20, and 20.455 farm women,
agents and visitors from 171
counties representing 46,000 club
women registered for the meet-
ing. Mrs. Roy Wilkinson from
the Moon club and Mrs. L. L.
Goodwin from Delwin represented
the Cottle County Council.
One of the most enjoyable
features of the convention was
the community singing at each
session, which was led by Mr.
Richard Jenkins, director of the
Singing Cadets. Texas A. & M.
College. A simple and effective
decoration used at the reception
was a huge fish bowl filled with
green water, to which was ap-
plied from time to time, a piece
of dry ice. This made a constant-
ly rising vapor from the bowl.
A pageant, portraying the 12
phases of this year’s work was
given by the 12 districts of the
state. The phases of work are:
1. Texas Food Standard.
2. School Lunch Program.
3. Whqle Grains in the Diet.
4. Food for Freedom.
5. Canning Equipment for
Britain.
6. “I Will Take Care of Every-
thing."
7. First Aid.
8. 4-H Clubs Contributing to
Victory.
9. Co-operation With the Gov-
ernor in Rationing, Bonds, Sal-
vage.
1U. News Stories.
11. Wise Buying.
12. Victory in Family and
Neighbor Relationship.
The banquet was the highlight
of the convention. Mr. Jenkins
led til Singing Cadets in a round
of songs. Mrs. F. F. Davis, ihe
guest speaker, gave a review of
home demonstration work, from
a very meager beginning to the
present status of 46,000 farm
women. She urged the clubs to
use an action and study program.
The executive committee made ;
the following resolutions which
were adopted:
1. That all H. I). women make
the use of the Texas Food Stan-
dard a patriotic duty.
2. That each club woman and.

Sailor Dress
Pattern No. 8180—There’s a
smack of sea-going atmosphere
in the sailor collar of this fresh
young style for girls. Neat braid
trimming helps too, to carry out
the nautical theme. And, growing
figures are flattered by the
raised-in-front treatment of this
waistline. Smart for all types of
tu liable cottons —and excellent,
later for serge.
