Now thai; the Turks hnve discarded the fez for the straw hat, what's a poor Shriner going to do? ALL WE PROMISED AND MORE!, If it were possible to acquaint just half of the women cf the La Grande territory with the facts and details which indicate the excellence and unusually interesting character of The Observer Home-maker's Institute to be held week after next, we' are confident that their enthusiasm would be so great that the other half would, hear about it fre quently enough;.' to assure'a ' 100 'per 'Cent 'attendance at every session. , The Observer does not make a habit of using superla tives in editorial comment but this particular subject de serves an exception. Last year when we experimented with a Cooking School and had an avernge of 300 women in attendance each day, we outlined such an institute as is provided this year and promised an event far superior to anything of the kind ever given here. We are going to give the women of the community all that was, promised und a great deal more. We are spending several hundred dollars to make it possible and the entire affair is planned for community service because it is impossible to provide features of this chnracter in regular newspaper space. Cooking and table service under the direction of a wom an who has a national reputation in home economics work ; interior decorating lectures and demonstrations by u nian who is extremely practical and recognized as the best in his profession on the Pacific coast; child health lectures and demonstrations by a child specialist of the highest repu tation, together with conferences that will permit mothers to discuss special problems; hat rennovation and dress de sign by the best sewing expert in the state; lectures on household efficiency, home equipment, budgeting, etc., by n woman of national reputation in those lines; lectures on home planning and rebuilding, art in the home, etc., by the head of O. A. C.'s department of Art and Architecture these nre the high-lights of the program to be given Tues day, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of week after next. The Observer feels particularly fortunate in having se cured Mrs. Jessie D. McComb, head of the home economics extension work of 0. A. C, to personally direct the Insti tute, and it is through her efforts that such an excellent staff has been assembled for. the event. Jlrs. McComb spent yesterday in La Grande arranging a number of de tails and securing a final approval of the four-day schedule. She is, herself, an expert along many of the lines to be given attention and promises sessions that will interest and profit every woman of the community. Wis. lUcComb says that never in her long experience in home economics work has she seen such a complete and outstanding program made available outside of a college or university. The Institute will be absolutely free to everyone who wishes to attend and many of the subjects are such that men will be attracted as well as women. The sessions will nil be held in the high school auditorium, through the courtesy of the school board, and will provide a light, cool place large enough to accommodate the crowds anticipated. H will also peimit conference rooms where the Institute faculty members can talk to individuals as desired. We do not hesitate to commend the Institute in every particular and are confident that it will measure up to everyone's expectations. The woman who appreciates the importance of this opportunity will make her plans so that she can attend both morning and afternoon programs throughout the week without a break. .
