EDWABDSVTLLE TUESDAY, PAGE THREE WOMEN'S FEATURES Notes 4-H Program Discussed The organization meeting for home economics 4-H leaders was held Jast Thursday at the Farm Bureau building. Mrs. Mary Hubbard, district 4-H leader, led the discussion on club work for the year. She explained changes made in requirements for membership, for the projects and state fair, and health activity. The meeting was attended leaders and assistant leaders from the 4-H clubs in Madison county.

This year each girl is required to do her own work. Not only does a girl lessen her chances for county and state axvards, but she isn't gaining from her club experience if mother does part of the work for her. The requirement to take part on tlie program is the same, but this year her talk of demonstration may be on any part of 4-H club work. She must also exhibit her project and fill out the green record in her manual. Several changes were made in the food projects.

The projects offered this year, use of fruits and vegetables, food preservation, quick breads, yeast breads, dairy foods and outdoor meals. Specific re- qxiirements are set up for work to be accomplished. At least five members must take "outdoor meals" if it is chosen as one of the projects carried by the club. The requirements for the clothing and home improvement projects remain much the same as for last year. The health activity for this year is on teeth.

We The Women It looks as if we are going to become a nation of home-owners, whether we like it or not. For a number of years, renting has so many advantages on its side that young couples were reluctant to take on the responsibilities of home ownership. The renter didn't have to worry about taxes.

It war no concern of his if the neighborhood in which he lived was starting to go down hill. He could always move to a better location. If something went wrong with the plumbing, it was the landlord's headache. So was redecorating, etc. Furthermore, the young couple who thought being foot-loose was the way to keep life from becoming humdrum could always rent, and thus feel free to pick up and move across the country at any time greener pastures beckoned.

It was simple, back in the god old prewar days. You could have a home without having the headaches of home ownership. But it's different today. Fami- ies who have had houses sold out from under them, or who have lived in mortal fear trat such a calamity would make them homeless, lave a new respect for the iden of owning their home. And thousands of young couples who wouldn't have dreamed, in the old days, of buying a home are finding that if they want a roof over their heads they have to buy.

Instead of pitying home-owners, hose who once yearned for the unencumbered life envy them now. Permanence is beginning to ook good. If th ehousing shortage succeeds in making home-owners, of country's young married biles. fere will be one ray of sunshine in the depressing situation For the font-loose ideal is bad or marriage.
