For my part I note that there l more Interest in modern cookery than ever before. Homemakers, young and old alike, eagerly ply us with literally hundreds of questions. "The question box at the exit of the Rlalto theater is demonstrative of the great Interest In 'Kitcheneer lng.' At the end of each of the two day sessions here It has been virtual ly Jammed with question cards. We have attempted to answer all of these that we could from the stage, and the other questions that require a more detailed report, or a reolpe, are sent on to the Homemakers' Bureau which will mall the required Infor mation." Miss calkins said that although the program Friday will mark the completion of the 1934 "Kitcheneer lng" course In Medford, It does not mean that the pleasant practice of "Kitcheneerlng" ceases at that point. "In fact.' advised Estelle Calkins, "'Kitcheneerlng' will Just be start ing for Medford homemakers. They can now go home and put Into actual use the many things they have learned at the cooking school. And throughout the entire 13 months of the year every homemaker can keep pace with the new findings of 'Kltcheneers' through the weekly radio broadcasts sponsored by the Safeway Stores Homemakers' Bureau, the bulletin service in Safeway Stores and correspondence with home eco nomists at the Bureau in Oakland. "I hope there's won't be any home makers who stay, away from our last 'Kitcheneerlng' sessions Just because they were unable to attend on the first two days," added Miss Calkins. "The program for every day is com plete In Itself and I think everyone will find our last session well worth while and highly Interesting."
