The lovely spring weather has made this "skip ping" doubly enjoyable. Our county committee, who represent the extension units in the county, met at the home of Mrs Al Fetsch, Heppner, on March 23. Discussion centered mainly around the Homemakers Festival to be held at the lone grange hall on April 30th. I sub mitted a rough draft of the script for the pageant, "Yesteryears of Morrow County which will be Dresented bv the various units the afternoon of the festival. There will be 10 episodes to the Daeeant: The Comlner of the White Men and The Great Mi gration, by the Irrlgon unit; Earl Settlers of Morrow County; Pine Citv unit: What Was Pio neer Living Like, Lexington, Heppner and Pine City units; The Pioneer Church, lone; The Pioneer School, Lena unit; Pio neer Social Life, Rhea Creek; Early Villages in Morrow County, HeDDner.

The present council members have plans to entertain the for mer council members of past years and the incoming mem bers at the home of Mrs Blegel, Irrigon on May 25. Speaking of Mrs Blegel, she hpcame a victim of the flu on county council day and spent the rest of the week in bed. bne was scheduled to be chief instructor at the "Tile-Craft" workshop In Pine City on March 24th, but "old man flu" decided differ ently. Consequently I pinch-hit for her that day. Twelve home makers and I had ourselves a Hnv of concentrating as we read the instructions and worked out the beaded tile mats. I think we all felt a little "cross-eyed" when the day was over. Wa hnva several tile kits on hand at the county agent's office if any unit or persons wouia like to purchase them. Thnrsdav was our day in the northern part of the county.
