Burton 'Wood, Oregon State college, will speak, and Miss Mary Jlouth, clothing spe cialist will bring greetings from Oregon State college. Miss Routh joined the OSC extension service this year after several years as clothing special ist with the Texas extension ser vice. From 1940 to IMS she was a county home demonstration agent in Texas. Miss Routh received her bach elor's degree in home economics from Texas State College for women and her master's degree in textiles and clothing from Columbia University's Teachers' college. Miss D. Eula Wintermote, Jackson county home demonstra tion agent, states that while this week is the 10th National Home Demonstration week, the annual festivals have a much older his tory in Oregon. As far back as 1933 counties held a homemak ers' day, which were program planning days with fun, style stones musk and spsaisirs aj& ed. The festival idea was a result ef World War II. Annual home interest conferences at OSC were drawing more than 1,000 women a year when war time travel restrictions brought them te an end. In their place ,the counties instituted the Home makers' festivals. These have proven so popular that they are being, held in all 30 of the coun ties with home extension agents. Miss Wintermote points eut that the annual week provides an opportunity to interpret the work of the entire extension ser vice.. Recognition of volunteer local leaders who have contrib uted to home and community improvement is always an im portant feature of the week. During 1955 the program will emphasize the importance oe wise management decisions in home and family living; increase an awareness of the influence ef the home on the character and personality f youth; help ce sumers develop skills and change attitudes in the selection, buying and using food and fiber; assisted families ia undet Adri enne s WOULD 10V r- Style .
